v : . School Frocks
School frocks are r always a
trial, to choose because they are
warn so much, that they are In
clined to ret so soiled and many
are needed. - : :x -:
We suggest as the most prac
tical school - togs -for the young
girl those which are, 1n' dark col-orr-f
or practicability, but are
trimmed In gay or light colors
for dalntlne&a . .
The jumper dress is one of the
, best liked of these, .- because a
. tweed, woolen, or : dark crepe
fmlmpe can.be worn; dozens, of
times 'without soiling, and a few
- changes of blouses are all that Is
v necessary..These kiddie . blouses
are qalte aa interesting as those

Clothes-Consciousness is ; !;
irRrevalent Even in School; a
Ag
e
A.MERICA has become clothes conscious to such an extent
JA that even . our little school children- have developed a
sense of proportion' in choosing: clothes that make them
small fashion plates in miniature of their older brothers,
and fond fathers. It is a consciousness that does not tend
toward vanity or. conceit rather toward, fastidiousness and
a keen sense iI the rights aadO T" . - -
wrongs of dress.
For. the. young boy. between
four and ten, the Rugby salt is a
decided farorite, with its curved
jacket., single-breasted, -.two-button
closing,, narrow notched, la
BtJs.. and English shorts and fit
ted vests, while for the older boy.
on to. the are of - sixteen. - tne
snort suit, in tweed fabric,:wfaicb
advocates a belted back and full
cut lcnickera .Is favored Just as
much as the mora formal type 01
suit " with ' notched lapels, flap
Dockets, and "which comes with
one pair of knicker trousers, and
one pair; of longies. - ,'" . .
The jackets of these are "worn
both single and doable breasted,
and may. have semi-belted backs.
In. all of these so its-the fabrics
favored rv eberiots, , worsteds,
serges and - tweeds, in the. many
new shades of gray,- tan, green,
blue and brown that are- identi
fied with men's clothing.- 7-
'Another . farored type- - of auit
for. the school boy is that in cor
duroy, and 4t Is interesting to
not that a variation of this fab
ric has been Introduced 'In the
form of corduroy fabric which
does not t endorse a ribbed sur
face, -but presents a tweed-mix-,
tore effect." . . " -
Just to illustrate ?what - we
meant at the, beginning of .this
style talk, we're going to give
you a few complete outiits, -just
as they would be assembled for
stripes, and checks that every
young heart is secretly wishing
for. ' ' - . ,:
The one-piece woolen frock Is
another popular everyday dress
that belongs in, the school ward
robe. It may be had in dark or
bright colors, and is perfect for"
the first warm days of spring,
when coats ina y- be dispensed
with.
' Of course If he's only at kinder
garten age, it will be no more
sophisticate than a little knitted
suit, with; a pleated skirt, cardi
gan jacket.- and -sweater -In -gay
colors. And even if she J-reaeh-lng
the age of sweet sixteen the
knitted suit is-, still : a- popular
vogue, and so chic young lady ne
glects it. ;-." :--: ' t
But if she la-about eight, then
mother, you you can . let her "per
suade you to let her 'have a real.
grows op suit, in a tailored, style
for school, or maybe a very dressy
one to wear in the Eastern fash
Ion parade. - - ; ' .
This good news may ba'attrib-
u ted-not only to- the--'fact that
prices are ' so low and values so
high, but thai fashions hare been
individualized, permitting - you a
choice ot - becoming - clothes , in

Bear this-in mind when you do

the
Advantages
the well dressed boy.
First, let us consider a youn
ster about eight, starting .oft "to
school ia one of the new, rich
brown, unfinished worsted suits;
Before going to bed the night be
fore he . should have all of his
clothes - ready for - the ' morning,
and thia i .what, he should
choose! White underwear is, of
course, '.always correct, J but tor
the boy who has the. new colored
sets as well, we should choose a
pale blue broadcloth -t one-piece
union suit. . . 1 .
A blHe oxford shirt with col
lar attached, a dark -brown belt,
a solid color . champagne tie, - a.
slightly darker shade of chanvf
pagne socks, a cap to match htt
suft, ' and ". dark brown, shoes
would make up a complete good
looking- -outfit. -. H "-
. The Eton JEff ect
- With a gray j Eton, suit; he
would wear one of the -deep-back
Eton caps 'to: match: a white
broadcloth shirt' with. a. soft,
broad Eton collar, a bright red
tie, and navy blue, three-quarter
socks with red patterned tops. A
white pocket handkerchief would
behe last correct" touch. r
For an older boy in one or the
new bright navy blue .suits we
should' prefer either; a - white.
beige, or blue, shirt, or .collar-attached
sfyle, and . handkerchief.
black calf shoes and ; marron
socks, a striped tie of ! maroon
and a vivid, blue : of . a much
lighter shade than navy. If he
were to bp . wearing : a cedar-
brown suit, he should choose a
white shirt and handkerchiefs, a
bright . orange necktie,.- beige
seven eighths socks, and brown
shoes. - .. .. .
Another Interesting way of de
veloping the ensemble theme- tor
the young boy :1s with contrast
ing trousers and jackets. For
example a pair of beige trous
ers with a dark brown jacket Is
very sporty looking.
Topcoats for boys of all ages
favor tan to the extent of nearly
70 per -cent, the rest of the pro
portion being - about evenly dis
tributed between : grays, dusted
blues, gray-greens, dark ' browns
and gray-blues. . . Tweed, . camel
hair, and worsted are the most
popular fabrics, and raglan
sleeve's' are gaining in Import
ance. The .majority of the coats
are sin gle-brgastedr and 'many ad
vocate tne oetiea oaca. i :
LATE IBTIDil
- Trousers haven't always been
the garb, of men, although there
has-been found evidence which
indicates that two thousand years
ago They were worn in Denmark.
As a matter, of fact, when the an
cient Greeks " first became associ
ated with the barbarians, of ithe
north and east they were Inclined
to ridicule, them for their" leg cov
erings, and Am other authorities
state that women of the east were
first ' to ; wear . trousers which
were In reality bifurcated skirt
which' they afstened around their
ankles to give them greater com
fort in walking a custom later :
adopted- by men. ' K.-J,.
During .the time of the French
Reroiution, -trousers played. a
part in political diferences, , and
those who sided with the royal
house wore knee breeches; while
the plebians favored' the length
ened trouser leg, and In England
it is generally believed that King
George IV first Introduced the
Ions; trouser because he . suffered
from gout which resulted in a
swelling of his limbs To conceal
this disfiguration he adopted the
pantaloon, in preference- to the
more revealing knee breach. "
The stripe down the seam of
men's trousers is an evolution of
the ' fold of. material . formerly i
osed to cover the" buttons and
buttonholds which had to be used
in order to permit the breeches
going over the shoe.

they're liked best in pastel colors
