School Frocks for Spring

The advent of Lent finds mothers devoting their time to spring outfitting for the children In addition to their ow-n. which Is a more difficult matter. But the quiet of Lent allows time to consider things- Spring has already been heralded, for weeks. In the shop, by displays of children's frocks made of wash fabrics, for school and other wear. Nothing startlingly new In fabrics has distracted attention from our old-time favorites tor children's wear, but the season Is distinguished by tbe unexcelled excellence in design of the new garments for tbe younger generation and by attractive and refined colorings In the materials used tor mak-

ing them.

Plaid and plain ginghams and cham brays still lead In the practical procession of cotton goods, followed by percales, poplins and other heavy weaves. It Is a satisfaction to be told

by buyers that these American goods are dyed with American dyes In colors tliat are permnn-nt as well as soft

find pleasing.

A school dress, for a girl anywhere from twelve to seventeen, shown In tha picture above, la n combination of a plain color with white In yoke, buttons and simulated button holes. Tha styles for girls of this age—the "flappers" that still like to romp, have nto to plain skirts and overgarments more or less like tbe middy or sweater coat. Big flat pearl buttons may be considered a fad of the season and a very pretty means of simple ornamenting that may be allowed on dresses foe school and play. With the serviceable. low-heeled, canvas shoes we can sec In this outfit a gnrb that is aU right for tennis, basketball, and various other pastimes, as well as for schoolroom and street wear.

In the Realm of Negligees

There are negligees and negligees ;| some of them elaborate and Him) *f-' fairs of chiffon or crepe and late, that float about the figure In lovely color j tint*. Many are made of thin silks or! crepe de chine, others of sheer cot ions, j But the story of the variety of fabrics j umsI Is short when compared to the j Story of variety In design. We ran ; e|x-nd our hours of ease lu <-lothes from tor Japan or fhlns or India, or In , garments adapted from these oriental j koarres. Ur we ran look to various i periods la French or other history for | Inspiration* and go a* far a* we like | lu adaptations of them. It U tr. negti- . gees ■ bat we are fancy free. Among the prettiest and most prat- : tlcal styles are those In which the j negligee i» In one piece and made of i taffeta allk In light colon*. Lace oc I net. and often both, ore used with tins j crisp, shimmering allk. and ribbon* are j a matter of course on all negligees. Ba*ii of these contributes It* share j toward making tbe quaint and youthful j gann-nt with easy, flowing linae, pic- J luted here. It looks like an ample coat over a long aklrt. but la all In one ' piece. A flounce of lore beaded with | n cording accounts f.*r the coat effect, j atd-i by two patch pockets with flounces across the top. l-nce t* gath end about the bottom of the robe and j flnlabas the very full, flowing sleevoa I that are cut three-quartets length. It j

Is the logical neck finish. Narrow rite bon in a rosette with ends is posed at the top of the front fastening and forms a loose Mali with how and ends at tbe fruut that U tacked about tbs waist. Taffeta coats, about as long as a iiiauduriu coat, worn over lacy petticoats are beautiful, and So be recommended. especially tor morning wear. They are often trimmed with cord covered with taffeta.. This order Is reversed In negligees having allk petticoats of taffeta or orej>e de chine, with little coals of net or silk, trimmed with narrow lace frills, over them.
