We Rhall have plenty of rhanrea \a after strange nen- gods In elik wsnvea; some of them glorious projl arts of looms set to new tasks. There are wonderful Bltkn among the noveltie* for spring; knitted-looking fabric* and familiar silks .woven in an amazing variety of new patterns. Printed silks are slated for the new aeason and fonlanhi in lovely colors ere.flgnred with flowers and leaves and made up often with plain gewrg ette. tn sucii lovely frocks that thenare not two opinions as to their Me cess. Their triumph is assured. Even tricot U shown in printed patterns and varlons tricot weaves prodaira that manufacturers foresee s vogue for this materia! greater than that It has al ready had. In cross bars of centrist tag colors It Is best adapted to sport wear, but In plain colors mat es a handsome dress for the street. In the vanguard of silk frock* fo: spring there are the taffeta- that worn en watch for and In which they have an abiding interest. Nothing so far has supplanted the taffeta frock. It holds Its own because It is so wearable; thut isi It is a versatile gown nulled to many of the golugs on that occupy the Unic of tlie women of to day. The two-piece dress—or suit—

shown in the picture reveals ns practical and pretty a frock as ever greet-’ ed a spring day. # ' TJils new model embodies some very inierestlitg details In Its makeup. First the skirt narrow* toward the bottom and has a wide hem. Rows of long running stitches arranged In five grout*, run around the skirt, beginning wi:b a group of three, uppermost and adil.ng one row to each group until that above the Item number* seven. These long stitches of heavy silk constitute .,ne variety of the “thread embrulflei..- that plays a prominent part In the reasons styles. The :-j<-ktt or short mat'widens at the b [is—u departure from the straight eillwiaette that is noteworthy It may be the forerunner of more curved lines to follow and welcortie for variety < sake. A panel set in the front of the Jacket Is embellished with this tlr-ad embroidery and a double row oI'miiuII buttons.. Re vers that widen towartl the Upturn and a neck finish .‘a a fold of white georgette are pretty and the girdle formed by three cord* run in the silk Is new. A buckle find tlrv* I-sip* of sill;-covered cord at ich <de flntsli It off. Tlie enffs command attention. They are made of il"e|i | 'alts .if the sill; fastened down with little but tans.

A ennlen is a iffscetwhere a plant receives the nurture It need* for Its development, the proper amount of heat, light and moisture. So a kindergarten may tie thought of as an InClosure where each child I* supplied With the right conditions for Its development—no . forcing nor pushing. Just a natural unfolding of life. ronsblering how much a child learns during hi* find six years, how Important U become* that he should be supplied with Jnst the right terlal ami the most intelligent super-

vision

All the virtues are developed la kindergarten. The first find uio,t linportmit one Is obedience. We mothers know how dlfflrnlr It Is to establish till* habit. Now the kindergarten believes that a child may he led Into obedience without being forced Into It and it ones many device* to airnigtlieii he habit of obedience during the early yearn. One of the ways In which kindness I* taught In the kindergatte have the children prepare and give gifts at Easter. Valentine's day and May <lay. Courtesy Is developed through games and storic*. The habit of orderliness Is started by requiring the children to put tbclr plaything* away neatly when they are through with them, and they Instinctively acquire a aeiue of order from the orderly procedure followed In the plays and games and work. Kiddiaa Love Stories. The stories used In kindergarten are such as all children lose to hear. They are written by experts In child study, and prepared and told in an interesting manner. While they are always amusing nod delightful, they also contain a vital truth which sinks fleep Into the subconsciou-- mind. Imperceptibly teaching the children nome lm|x>rtant moral or ethical lesson. We mothers little know howmuch of the courtesy, cheerfulness and gentleness which our little one* seem naturally to possess may lie traced back to some Impression* made upon their plastic minds through these

stories.

The music and .ous* of the kinder, garten appeal strongly to the child.

All that the child feel*'within hi there w must be given frequent opportunity next Hi

to express without, for. a* Froebet says, even affection may die in a child If not property nourished. The following song U part of a gain-. In which the children play they are gathering

When at my mother's home tme time my little girl folded and cut a house, windows, doors and all! Her grandmother was delighted and the little one said: “We'll keep it to show grandpa and I guess he'll say I nm n smart Tottle." With a little thought mothers can learn how to fold and tspeli their children to fold n namber of things. It is excellent practice In accuracy and neatness, besides affording -.lie Joy of making something. In a regular kindergarten all the sets of blocks, which are of different sizes, are kept in 1 sixes with cover*, and each child puts hi* away carefully and correctly or else, the cover will not fit. Then nil tin- sets arc collected and packed In n closet by a few of the children. » hlldrcn love tn help ke«p things In order and oajoy
