N excellent thing to remember when planning your summer wardrobe is that only vulgar ople are ostentatious. And only the bor spirited need to copy others, To try to establish a pretense of Wits and a manner of dress which ¢ foreign to that which one’s purse n afford, is certain evidence of one's certain position, and one's ignor- @ of the first principles of sense 1d good taste.

So it only means that the better courage one has to dress as her own sense of good taste dictates, the better dressed she will be. Simplicity is the backbone of the summer styles. The slender, drapy effects will continue until July, but after that we will see crisp dimities, swisses and organdies, made up with full skirts that distend about the hips quite frankly. Just now I see many evening frocks on this ofder They are made of soft taffeta, and not infrequently of chiffon, of many layers that fall so full and thick one can scarcely perceive that a boning is underneath to hold them out. I have designed a pretty evening frock to be made of either taffeta or chiffon in some pale color such mistletoe, that pretty light green color so much in evidence, or dande- lion. Delicate cream lace or silver threaded lace performs in ruffles at the sides of the yoluminous skirt, and professor; so when you're addressing me suppose you talk in a way that a pirate can understand."' “I beg your pardon,"’ Jamie apolo- gized. “What I meant to say is that this glass makes things look bigger." “Oh, that's different!’ said the Pirate. . “No, it's the same,"’ said Jamie, “What, vou contradicting me?’* thundered the Pirate. “No,” explained Jamie, "I was about to say that things do not really become different when you look at them through this gla they only appear to grow bigger. “Ll take it then,’ said the Pira reaching for the magnifying gla: also around the shoulders of the bod- iee, while a delightful contrast is in- troduced in a garland of flowers which passes over the right shoulder, It serves to hold the bodice, and in front crosses over to the left side of the waistline. Printed stuffs will come into favor in the late spring and early summer. White backgrounds with dark biue or black designs covering three quarters of the surface are very smart The reverse effect, however, is also seen, but in summery models that sponsor the color of the design in ribbon sashes, ribbon bindings or georgette panels. Foulard and challie are the popular textures, the Intter more used for misses than grown-ups I have designed a matron’s gown of foulard which exploits, the newest apologies for sleeves, and the smart cut of the skirt, which, while not strictly circular, suggests it in the manner of its drape.

One well known house sponsors the elght-Inches-from the-ground skirt. Another equally Prominent modiste is making skirts seven Inches from the ground, while another widely known establishment turns ovt skirts that escape the ground by nine inches, Therefore ali are fashionable, and the independent American woman is doing just right in wearing her dresses as long or ay short as she pleases. French women are growing tired of the hats with rolled brims and are wearing the cloche hat, probably as a sort of between-séasons hat, The shops are featuring big, floppy les horns for later on. Some of the best dressed women are having thelr new gowns made with a higher waist line. The outstanding feature of the new cloche hats is the brim, which 1s sel- dom straight. In fact, brims on most of the hats are slashed, folded curved, and if straight they trimmed in novel effects. or are Flowers are the favorite hat trim ming, and floral hats &re seen in great profusion. Turbans and tricornes made entirely of flowe: others made up of taffeta and flowers, or a com- bination of georgette and flowers.

For the Home Dressmaker De:» Mise Lodewick: yk | have 4% yards of black crepe de Chine, and would like dre to make a which would be appropriate for informal evening Would like also to wear it in wear. the afternoon, Am twenty-five years of age; my figure ‘a inclined toward stoutn witl you also advise if a small hat is con- lered =appropri- ate for evening? MISS F. H. E. This style would answer your pur- pose, and I trust become you. A small hat, if it is not of the "sport" type, is suitable for evening, but a large hat is considered more dressy, Dear Miss Lodewick: How many yards of material would | need for separate coat of inclosed (yellow kasha cloth barred in black)? Aleo, will you suggest a style? Shall wear coat with white skirts, Am thirty-six years old, medium build. Mrs. R. P. R. A wide inverted box plait down cen- tre back, finishing at waistline. A tuxedo collar cut on bias of goods could be bound with black silk braid Lower edge ef coat could be bound Black buckle on fabric belt. Two and one-half yards of goods, Dear Miss Lodewiok: | have a light tan camel's hair suit, for which | have yet to buy a hat, and would appreciate your , for | cannot seem to de- cide whether light dull blue, which is very becoming, would be smartor than a tailored leg- horn in natural color, trimmed with a blue band, or a tan straw matching the suit, which might be trimmed with blue or brown or orange. Am eighteen years old, have light brown hair and blue eye! Miss A. T. A leghorn shape bound with tan would be smart, Introducing color in your costume through various gilets of checked blue gingham, plain green linen or orange bound collars and cuffs. You could match stockings to such colors. WT EZ CO I OEE Build This Out of Four Cigar Boxes Embroider XK ‘phis an Elephant Dear Miss Lodewiek: | have three yards of black sille lace thirty-six inches wide with whieh to make a frock. Will You help me with a style? What shail 1 use as a foundation? Ame twenty-four years of age, 6 feet 4 inches tall, weigh 114 pounds. Mise A. D. Either black China silk or satin, the former making a lighter weight frock, Make skirt with little fulness across front and back, open on sides, with separate panels, gathered and hanging longer than skirt. Make meckline straight and wide, short sleeves bound with satin. Bind panels and low-draped belt also, A cluster of colored grapes at the side. Dear Miss Lodewick: | had 4 yards of 54-inch velour de laine like sample and out it into two plai for my sisters, but they did not like either color or style, 80 have decided to rip them up and make @ cape or coat dress for myself, with perhaps a brilliant lining. Will you advise me if such would be possible, and if so suggest « di in? Am nineteen, rather stout,.of good figure. K. M. GC. Your material is really not good for spring, being too heavy, and dull of color also, Why not lay it away until next fall, when it could be made into ® smart coat or wrap? However, if neceksary to use it at present, it could be made into a cape, using a gay lin- ing of bright blue or henna. Or it could be made with % inch wide bind- ings of velour or duvetyn aroun@ edges, with no lining. Chenille for Veils and Fringing EILS are fringed with chenille V and dotted with chenille and embroidered with chenille. In fact, chenille ts the popular trimming material of the day. It is thicker and more important than silk and it & weight and body which simple silk floss could never have. F ‘The vells that are embroidered with chenille hang about the face in loose draperies, Then the embroidered pat- tern falls somewhere down about the shoulders and makes a@ decoration there which is IMusive and at the same time, moat picturesque in quality. On the newer capes, both for day- time and evening wear, there is any quantity of chenille fringe being used. It bobs about in the most graceful fashion and it has a pecullar way of harmonizing with the straight fur collar which is usually a part of the wrap itself. Some of this chenille fringe is long and again some of tt is short. In any case, it Is used to give a body and form to the garment which it dee- orates and it never fails to give a certain distinction which could not, It seems, be gained in any other way. iI Conducted by Eleanor Schorer hdae Oe Oa, 4 what our grandmammas called a “sampler.” It ts an embroid- y design to be done in cross stitch, The motif is an elephant. hie elephant would look well if done in purple wool with the ear stitched ia the eye in green and the tusks in tvory white.
