Southern Oregon Miner, Thursday, August 2, 1945 e-w. w-e-w *• i»-* - e SEWING CIRCLE PATTERNS Dirndl Skirt and Peasant Blouse Costume D elights Teen-Agers Simple Princess Frock for Girls A Smartly Tailored Two Piecer By CIIEKIK NICHOLAS 12-4? fA K < ALL the smart fashions lor young girls, nothing can eclipse the endearing charms, the witchery and the flattery of the picturesque dirndl-skirt and peasant blouse cos tumes which teen-agers take such delight in wearing. All through summer and midseason and on into the fall these gay little twosomes will stand at the top as the fashion- ideal for girls. It seems as if these quaint peas ant costumes are prettier and more eye-thrilling than ever before The skirts give play to unfettered imagi nation, for no matter how daring their colorfulness or their fabric, they have eye-appeal plus. The more they go a la Mexlcano or bal lerino style the better. The blouses worn with them are of the lovely sweet-simplicity type that simply fascinate with their re freshingly naive and ingenue look. They have everything about them that makes a pretty girl look her prettiest. The lingerie types made of dainty white sheers with their low cut drawstring necklines, or with ribbon-threaded beading about the neck and the sprightly short puff sleeves, fascinate with their cunning ways. Often the peasant look is accented with trimmings of gay embroidered banding. Others of the sheerer type are exquisitely but very daintily lace trimmed. An adorable peasant skirt and blouse by Ballerino of California is shown to the left in the illustration. High artistry is seen in the beauti fully styled black skirt with its brilliant band trimming, formed of multi-color imported Guatemalan braid together with tiny white fringe. Double rows of Irish lace add to the witchery of this dainty sheer and lovely fine batiste blouse. One of the many charms of this ex quisite model is that it can be worn either in the exciting off-the-shoul- der effect or be adjusted at will to a more conservative neckline. To make you look as cool as an ice-cream soda top your flower- fresh print skirt with a white voile, cap-sleeve, U-neck blouse cut along the lines of a simplicity pattern, for the glory of these winsome peasant blouses is their dramatic simplicity. With her pretty-pretty print dirndl and peasant blouse costume, the dancing girl to the right wears that which is latest In footwear—authen tic ballet slippers. To further car ry out the ballerino spirit, draw your hair to the top o* your head either tying a ribbon about your coronet of curls or encircling it with a wreath of flowers, or a single large flower according to pref erence. In the twosome centered In the trio the order has been reversed, in that blouse is of print worn with a black skirt. However, the sim plicity theme holds good, for the charm of these winsome blouses is that they be made as simply as pos sible. This fashion-wise maiden is also wearing ballet slippers which she finds are available at the stores in either black or bright red. Girls who know their fashions are having lots of fun making their own peasant-inspired dirndls and simple blouses. Just the fact that it re quires so little material and so little time to run up the seams, turn up a hem and add a belt and presto! another dirndl, has caused these be coming little twosomes to become the mainstay among girls whose clothes budget is limited. These smart lassies buy up the most at tractive remnants imaginable of permanent glaze chintz or gay flow er pr(int nr spun rayon or any likable material and they run up a dirndl in a jiffy. These enterprising ama teur sewers find too it’s a good idea to lay in a quantity of bright ric rac, for it makes the perfect trim ming for dirndl-and-blouse play clothes.

For Beach and Swim Pastel Cottons for Back-to-School Wear Women who are fashion-wise have come to know that pretty pastel cot tons are just as practical and as much-to-be-desired for little girls’ back-to-school clothes as they were at the springtime of the year. Who wants to go to school on a hot September day in other than a cool and refreshing wash frock. If it be a bit cool in the morning children are wearing the cutest little toppers imaginable tailored of pastel wools. This year there’s a definite move ment on in favor of pastel cottons for back-to-school wear. Even the beloved plaid ginghams have gone pastel, and they’re ever so smart and pretty for little girl’s frocks. The new light-colored cottons for school wear include pastel-ground plaids, also checks and clean-cut white stripes on pink or blue Cham- bray.

For the swim suit as shown in the inset the printed pique has to be elasticated to be ready for water and sun. Among the new colors we’ll be seeing much of in the near future comes a deep dark plum tone. A soft ruby red is also noted as one of the new colors of the year. White wine, the shade which got such a good start for spring is featured again in the new collections. Gray continues to carry on with style prestige. Royal blue is a novelty shade that still appears in many top collections, usually contrasted with black. Chutney brown is a rich lively brown that is given an im portant place in the mode. Beige is a quality color that has a big future. It looks like the autumn will be richly colorful. Customer — I ’ll try the codfish cakes and beans.

Lick The World, the Peace and Andy Gribbin An important thing about Andy Gribbin’s education is that his whole early life is spent in learn ing the essential business of co operation, of getting along with fellow-beings. First, he has to learn how to fit into his immediate family, learn the give-and-take neces sary to get along with brothers, sisters, elders. Then, after a few years, his world enlarges, he is sent to school. Pretty soon he learns how to spell C-A-T. But about this same time he learns some thing much more valuable, which is that he mustn't pull the cat’s tail because a cat is a being, and therefore entitled to certain in alienable rights. He also learns that 1 plus 1 equals 2. But much more useful is learning that 48 equals 1, that 48 states make 1 nation, indivis ible, with liberty and justice for all. As Andy grows up his world will continually expand. At church, at school, in business. And through it all will run the theme of cooperation, of getting along with people of different re ligious, political and economic beliefs; with people some of whom he doesn’t even like. But—the tragedy of world history is that the Andy Grib- bins have not learned that in a constantly shrinking world, co operation must extend beyond the borders of the country; that just as it is necessary to get along with neighbors and neigh bor states, so is it necessary to get along with neighbor nations. And today, with no spot on earth more than sixty hours away by plane, with oceans shrunk to the width of rivers, with the age of rocket-travel upon us, all nations are neighbor nations. There are hopeful signs that finally we are awake to this. Even so, a lack of determina tion, of responsibility, of effort could again ruin the peace and set the stage for World War 3. What can you do to help make sure that war will never come? You can . . . First, get and keep yourself informed about the specific proposals for peace and international cooperation which are now before us. Second, interest your friends in these questions. Get them discussed in groups to which you belong. Third, write what you think to your Congressman and Senators, to your newspaper. Declare yourself.
