• young teen-ager who has ull the
clothes she wonts. When some new
gudget. trinket or fad takes the
school by storm, girls frequently
feel out of the swing of things if
they can't have them. On the other
hund. clothes budgets for the high
school girl ore frequently limited,
and It's impossible to buy every
thing,
In cases like this, the girls who
con sew, or whose mothers are
hundy with the needle ore truly born
under a lucky star. There are al
ways dresses in the wardrobe that
are dated, rather than worn, but
with skillful iveutting and sewing
they can be transformed into new
and lovely things.
One of the items in a young girl's
wardrobe which easily acquires a
dated look, but does not lose its
value as a good piece of m aterial,
is a form al. Forme!« are worn a
few times, and then they lose their
usefulness as such.
But what a
wealth of good m aterial for sewing!
Not only one but several articles
can be made from dated formals.
The bodice can be recut and sewed
as the top of a suit, and the skirt
especially if It is full, offers ample
m aterial for the skirt of a suit, and
even an extra blouse or skirt.

Recipe for a New Spring Suit:
First, 'Fake a Dated Formal—
Impeccably hand-tailored hut with
distinctive dressmaker detail is this
precision striped jacket. ' In navy
and red striped worsted, this suit is
indicative of the trend in fashion
being shown this spring.
You'll find these tips worthwhile
when sewing for youngsters just
past the bib and tucker stage:
1. Choosing m aterials for chil
dren should center on the follow
ing points: washability, wearabil
ity, ease of making, warm th or
protection, and attractiveness.
2. The length of skirts, trousers
and sleeves are important. Chil
dren's clothing should look smart
if you want them to be happy and
win appreciation from their play
mates.
3. Good buttons and fasteners,
good binding or trim m ing m ate
rial such as ric rac are essen
tial if the child is to get in and
out of his clothing easily, and
make the clothing easy to laun
der.
4. L ittle folks like good fitting
clothes. M aking up a muslin pat
tern takes little tim e and saves
ripping and tedious pinning that
make youngsters fidgety
5. M ake sewing easy for your
self by doing all the cutting at
one time. Then the sewing can
all be done at a sitting. You can
c o v e n tra te better when your
work is well organized.
