You must have a small board work upon, a pie tin on which to build, a knife, a short stick flat on one end and pointed on the other, and a ruler. Begin the little Jar in Fig. 1 with Its base. Put a handful of clay on the board, pat it out with your hand until 14 inch thick, and amooth off the ear face (Fig. J). Then take a coffee cup. invert it upon the base, and with your knife trim away the clay outside of the rim (Fig. S).

MO yen Ape Effect. With Novelties. Is the Latest of Designs—One of the Best of the Results Achieved le Shown.

It Is an American inspiration. embodying points that we like te emphasise In the party frocks

The skirt Is rather full, and slashed about the bottom. The slashes arc bound with ribbon, which may be in a light color. A niching hemmed at the edges and gathered on two shirring threads U festooned on the akin, midway of Its length. A soft underbodice, with elbow sleeves, la made of chiffon and fln-Uhi-<i with a wide V-shaped opening at the front and back o* the neck. A soft lace edging is sewed tc the edge of this opening, and the sleeves arc finished with a niching made like that

on the skirt.

The overbodice is fulled on the shoulders and draped in surplice effect. with long arms-eyea It slips easily over the underbodice, and a niching, with three ahlrrlngs, forms the glide. It fastens at the left side under two chiffon roses, and two similar roses are set on the left shoulder. Gay dance frocks, combining several light-colored nets, are made with ribbon bound flounces or with godets contras tins in color. A pretty model has a foundatlou skirt of white net

ruffle of white net bound with narrow white satin ribbon. Above this is a flounce of light blue bound with blue ribbon. A flounce of pink overlaps and one of pale yellow fln- : series. Three groups o! flounces, with the colors arranged in this order, cover the akin, and the waist employs the colored nets as a drapery over the white net in an un-

derbodtee.

Another model In colored nets has a short and widely flaring skirt In which rose color and black and tan tulle are used with white. The different colors are set about the waist and extend to the bottom of the skirt in godets. with colors alternating. The bodice is draped, and a wide girdle of rich brocaded ribbon completes the design. Its colors carry out the won derful .color scheme in the gown. Besides the use of several colors in one gown, designers of dance frocks have achieved iiorao lovely flowerlike effects by uniting three sbadi color iff silk go was. A coral-colored taffeta baa a lull short skin with wide ruchings at the bottom In two deeper shades of coral.

VARIETIES OF VELVET FROCKS

One May Have Them In Practically Any Design That Occurs to tha Fancy.

There are quantities of three-plner velvet costumes whose coats are short, reaching only a little way below the waist line, or of hip length and either.belted or very loose and flaring: and often there are. too. in numerable velvet frocks that have no accompanying coat. These frocks may be of the elaborate sou, -part chiffon or lacc or allk much trimmed, but newer are the simple, onc-plcce frocks of velvet, almost untrimmrd save for mere touches of fur or . mbrolderr and buttona. made. In fact, with at most rxaggeraied simplicity, hut with careful atlenUon to line. Alsny i!iesc have high, close collars at the velvet, bordered at the top with fur relieved at the U.p by som* white collar arrangement: but these straight up and down all-velvet models, while undeniably chic, are as undriiisbiy too hot for comfort In our overheated building* and practical only for a wear under fur coats or with small furs Recognizing this fault, some of the designers hare arranged the collar that from a high, clone, velvet choker it may be unbuttoned and turned over Into a lace-iaced. rolling collar, but even that leaves the all-velvet bodice a very hot affair.

There are many needleworkcrs who delight 1c working on large plecen of fancy work, but there are Just at many.
