One Is so afraid f overdressing the little one, and, of course. It Is far better to err on the side of simplicity. It is, therefore, welcome delight that the mother or woman with small chil dren to dress feels when she pomes across such a smart little slip as this to be made from a lightweight linen or chambray. The whole chic of the frock centers in the crossed straps, which, with their contrasting stitching and oddly looped NORMALSCHOOLSGROW Amount Spent in Training Teach ers Shows Great Increase. Appropriations 500 Per Cent Larger Than They Were 25 Years Ago, Reaching $12,683,656 In 1915. Public appropriations for schools for the year 1915 total $12,683,656, as compared with $2,212,952 a quarter of a century ago—an increase for public appropriations for state normal schools of over 500 per cent In the last 25 years, according to figures compiled by Uncle Sam. “A public normal school Is a peculiar school,” says a government expert. “It is equally true that the peculiar work of such a school cannot be delegated to any other school. No other school can prepare teachers so well for their work as the school which makes such prepa ration its sole business.” The number of public schools in the United States by states, according to the Educational Directory of the bu reau of education for 1915-16, Is as fol lows: Alabama ................ 9 Arizona ................. 2 Arkansas ................ 2 California .............. 8 Colorado ............... 1 Connecticut ........ 5 Dist. of Col.......... 2 "Florida ............... 0 Georgia ................... 3 Idaho ..................... 2 Illinois ................... 6 Indiana ................. 3 Iowa ...................... 1 Kansas ................. 3 Kentucky .............. 4 Louisiana .............. 2 Maine .................... 7 Maryland ............. 5 Massachusetts ...

Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska and New York each have from 100 to 200 teacher-training high schools. Wisconsin has about 30 coun ty normal schools and about 30 teach er-training high schools. Florida, Michigan, Oklahoma, Vermont and Vir ginia also have teacher-training in high schools or county normals. HOME GARDENING IS URGED Uncle Sam’s Expert Saye Work Should Be Directed Through Schools by Teacher* Employed by City. That home gardening, directed by the school, is the most effective way for bringing boys and girls into closer relationship with the affairs of life, is asserted by C. D. Jarvis in a bulle tin on “Gardening in Elementary City Schools,” issued by the bureau of ed ucation of the department of the in terior. Mr. Jarvis declares: “In or about almost any city there may be found an abundance of land that may be used for productive gar dening by school children. Within the limits of many cities there Is sufficient land, If Intensely cultivated, to supply the people with all the vegetables and a large proportion of the fruits and flowers needed. This unused land should be brought under cultivation.” In order that the best use may be made of this land for educational and productive purposes, it Is suggested that trained and experienced teachers of gardening should be employed in every city. "Such teachers would instruct the children directly and the parents In directly,” declares Mr. Jarvis, “with the result that in a few years a gener ation of capable gardeners would be developed. But the development of strong-bodied, efficient and contented citizens is the real purpose and the main result of this work. With a com mon knowledge of the principles and possibilities of crop production, the wage-earner of the future will not need to measure his income solely by the size of his pay envelope. He will con sider, also, the productive capabilities of his garden plat and the extent to which it will reduce the coat of living. He will see the advantages of a svbur- ban home, contrasted with the crowd ed and unwholesome tenement." are the leaders in the Fashion Centres of America. of experienced men, all working with an honest can not supply you with the kind you want, take no other make, write tor interesting booklet explaining how to get shoes of the highest standard of quality for ths price, by return inali, postage free.

For this reason this may be found a useful model for the small boy’s smock, slightly shortened to be worn over bloomers or little straight pants. Aside from the bretelles, the frock is simple enough. The inserted panel at the front gives an unusual line without much extra trouble. Sleeves are raglan, and' the collar a plain lay- down affair of contrasting material, probably pique. This slip can open at one side of the front panel from the shoulder down ; just enough to allow the garment to be slipped over the head. The strap arrangement can be repeated in the back, without the wedge-shaped panel, however. SILKS FOR OUTING SKIRTS New Designs for Sports Wear Have Hugo Disk* In Plain or Broken Stripe Color*. If there Is anything more luxurious than a satin-soft silk sports skirt one cannot guess what It can be. The very sensation of playing golf and tennis in a shimmering silk skirt must convey a suggestion of well-being. New sports silks for these skirts have huge disks in plain or broken stripe colors and the skirt is smartest when plaited or gathered, below a fitted yoke, a broad sash of the material going twice around and knotting below one hip. Very fetching Is a pattern of Roman striped disks on a wedgewood blue ground; another pattern shows green disks on a pale tan ground—this in light shantung weave. Sports silks In the soft La Jerz weave, which will not stretch like ordinary jersey silk, have rose pink dots on a white ground, and one may buy plain rose La Jerz for trimmings and coat. Of course, there are many other colorings, but the rose hue seems to be loveliest of all. Copper-colored blouses are gain ing ground so fast that the fashionable mustard shade 1* beginning to look a bit green with jealousy. The cop- per-hued blouses are of lustrous silk, like soiree and faille matinee, or of satin meteor.

Frocks for children continue to show a normal or high waistline for spring and summer, and sheer fabrics are largely featured for girls under six years, although, of course, sturdy tailored models are shown. The ward robe of every little miss must contain a number of these dresses for play. Smock and middy blouses show promise of being extremely popular, and the little suspender dresses, with skirt and shoulder straps of colored fabric, blouse or guimpe of white, are also approved. This type of frock is very sensible, as the little guimpe may be laundered much more easily than an entire frock, and with this part of the garment fresh, a skirt of dark linen may be worn several days, whereas ordinarily a fresh dress would be required at least once a day. Some of the cleverest little suits—coat and skirt affairs—for girls of no more than six years are being shown this season. It works! Sure They Will. Thomas—Do you think the fighting Ouch !?!?!!
