another little girl who has been
gifted with dimpling smile and curl

look perfeitly charming in it.
As a wide range of materials
and models are invented for the
babies these days as are offered
for the children ready for school.
Whether tre darling child is still
being carried, or has arrived at the
crawling age, so hard on mother's
patience, there are appropriate
and lovely clothes awaiting In the
shops.

its charming little hat or bonnet
to fatch. One was In pale pink crepe

one wore a deep embroidered cape

Such an adorable pink hat, too. It
waa made with a high crown af

I was an embroidered bonnet of
crepe de chine with a frill of Irish
crochet lace over the top.
To the tot who is navigating
by means of the frog system in
other words, crawling there are
many styles of rompers from
which to choose. A practical little
affair was a combination of smock
and bloomers, both of black sateen
with the edges bound with laven
der and stitched with black. It
sounds rather dark, but then tha
little one could scrub around on
the floor, to its heart's content and
look as well at the end of the day
as at the beginning. There are of
course rompers In every comnia
tion of cotton crepes, chambrays
and ginghams that one could pos
sibly wish.
Among the new little school
dresses for daughter are some in
teresting and smart designs. Two
of these had each a plain round
neckline into which the dreas was
gathered, with plain little kimona
sleeves. One in yellow, was bound
at neck and cuffs with brown. A
plain wide binding of brown start

Among the organdies the de
signers have certainly presented
us with the most beautiful little
frocks, all a-flutter with ribbons

In organdies there is no doubt that
the fairy like qualities of youth. s

aatnty expression. And as if to ac
centuate these qualities, the mod
els of the organdie frock are H

worked out whereby to add to the,

frock was entirely sashed with del

Our trim looking modern
men with their short skirts have
need to look to their footwear
these days when It is so very much
In evidence. Whether a costume
demands a smartiy tailored effect
or a more dressy type, there are
shoes In abundance from which to
choose.
We are led to infer that low cut
shoes are "in" in fact you almost
would have to argue with a man
to get him to sell you high boots.
And there is a perfectly facsinatlng
array of bestrapped and laced and
mannish shoe styles. And a special
made a little round apron with tabs
up the front on the frock, and
boasted tiny pockets of white. The
cuffs of the little puff sleeves were
gingham, and also the little neck
line. A sash of the white crossed
the tabls in front and tied Itself
in a gay little bow In trie back.
"To each occasion. Its own little,
frock," seems to be the motto for
the youngsters of today. And for
this purpose each sweat child will
find some appropriate garment In
today's presentation of spring styles
department for sports, and still
another where spats have It all
their own way. And a little later
in the season, good old white shoes
will come into their own.
Styles In straps are full of in
teresting novelties. Some of them
button, some of them buckle. A
pretty oxford in tan calf shows a
two strap effect high on the In
step, each strap with its smart lit
tle buckle. Another low shoe has
a double strap which fastens with
a single button. Still another has
two straps laced through a cross
strap, much as sandals are laced.
Bach of these buttons Into place.
All of these comfortable, sensible
boots have reasonable heels Louis
XV, Cuban and Military, making
an Instant appeal to the woman
who enjoys walking.
Let us presume she la wearing
a well tailored, slightly mannish
suit. She would naturally choose
for this either a Blucher oxford
with its perforated wing tip, or a
tailor made pump.
Now let us consider miladi's
boots for dress occasions. There
are so many from which to choose.
One clover slipper is built of black
satin or oose calf, with a nobby
Utile tongue fitting over the instep
with a neat little strap sliding un
der so as to hold the tongue smooth
ly in place. Another slipper has an
anklette that buttons and a strap
that buttons. Three little rut outs
grace the triangle of ooae calf (on
black kid) where the instep strap
buttons. Another dressy little boot
is possessed of four closely fitting
straps over the instep. These are
made possible because of the Inset
of elastic on either side.
There are smart novelties In
slippers In New Tork, offered to
the well dressed woman, for eve
ning wear. One Is a black velvet
pump with a green velvet covered
Louis heel, and a large flaring
green velvet tongue with the clev
erest possible rhinestone buckle.
Another pretty conceit Is a grey
and blue suede. This slipper has
two straps over the Instep and one
over the ankle. Bach strap has a
snappy little cut out, all Its own.
Still another dainty stylo Is la
stack satin with a black kid dia
mond tip and a small collar of the
same material, its single strap is
bound with the kid making a pop
ular little shoe.
A word or two about spats. Fsnn
and beaver are the favorite colors.
It Is essential that a spat should
fit beautifully. There are again
seen the "boot top" styles, In a
new color called plume grey. A pair
of frogs at the top are highly con
sidered for a neat finish to an
otherwise severely simple affair
that the spat should always be.
One mustn't forget colors in
shoe styles. "Colors" are "In'. Gray
and brown suedes will be very pop
alar. Tan calf and brown md are
also good. There are new and ln
triguelng shades of Russian leath
er. With grey stockings to maicn.
gray shoes especially will be seen
very often this season, and in all
sorts of styles of footwear.
And as for colors, sport shoe
are indeed resplendent in color
this year. Many sports costumes,
especially the tailored effects will
need shoes of exactly the right
style to complete their smartness.
The tip is usually of the dark
leather as It should be to protect
the white leather, and then there
are all sorts of Interesting arrange
ments on the rest of the oxford,
tha dark leather is usually perfo
rated, and is used to cover the
heel. Once In a while one sees a
