THREE TYPES OF THE NEW COAT SLEEVE PHA ARE SHOWN ABOVE. ZED IN EACH. THE FITTED ARMHOLE 1S EM. BY MARY MARSHALL. | UST as a horse dealer looks into | a horse’s mouth to tell his ags | by his teeth, so the student of costume may ignore other details | and accessories in studying any historical costume and examine the | sleeves to learn the period to which it | belongs. Even in periods like the present, | when sleeves are comparatively simple | and when fashion looks to other parts of the costume fo carry the burden of the trimming—still there is a de- finable something about the sleeves that tells. the vintage of the frock. What then is the vintage mark of the sleeves of the Autumn of 19282 Perhaps the most important fact of all is that sleeves do not seem to be important. You discuss your plans for a new frock with your dressmaker— you talk of the neckline, the skirtline, | the waistline, but it is only as an after- thought that you mention the cut of | the armhole or the shape of the sleeves. | ‘The er knows that this is im- | portant, but realizes that you are not enough of an expert to know how im- rtant she keeps these matters in herl eart and ponders on them when she | constructs the frock. | goods store she bought a set of Farnllel There are certain facts, however, con- | Dars which she had put up in this cerning the season sleeves that are | bare room.

One woman who has built up a rather nice little business of this sort began with a Saturday morning class for school children. She started it when school started two Autumns ago and induced five or six mothers to let her have their children from 9 until 12, charging 50 cents for th> morning for each child. In thai time she super- vised their cutdoor games to begin with and then as the weather grew colder and unsettied she took them indoors to a large, bare room ir. her house where, with windows opened and enough heat to take off the chill, the children went through various drills and games.

Personal tastes differ so much in this regard that often within one small family one will like a fairly hearty breakfast, another will care for a most substantial dinner with very little at other meals and a third will like a fairly substantial breakfast and only a mod- erate dinner. So in planning your menus consider these facts and remember that no one person will probably do honor to all that you have planned, If possible, get every one to eat fruit for breakfast— but remember that cereal is not needed by adults who eat fairly substantial meals later in the day.

Meat and potatoes, vege- tables, bread and butter, something sweet—and coffee—may do very well for dinner if you don't want to attempt anything more subtle, but it becomes monotonous enough when luncheon is merely a repetition of the same formula and breakfast consists of the same thing —sans the vegetables. If the breakfast is fairly nourishing and dinner comes at the end of the day, luncheon may be regarded as a sort of tide-over — supplying enough 'nourish- and well being without laying up a re- For those who must do mental work formula for luncheon than TWELFTH & F Berberich’S TWELFTH & F —For the woman who is discriminating in her selection of Footwear Authenticity of the foot mode is one of the many features for which HANAN shoes are preferred.
