March 25th. Let's see what we have to add to the general fun. First . . . half petticoats with dust ruffles of net, or embroidered ruffles to wear under your yards full of -skirts ... so when they swing you off the ground you'll be a froth of feminity. Second . . . Skirts very full and very swingy with gay patterns to add to a graceful do-ce-do. Third . . . Blouses made especially for dancing . . . for they have the stitched bodice for snug fitting and no creeping. You can't do a Texas Star with your shirt tail dragging. There are plain ones, eyelet embroid ered off the shoulder beau ties, and ruffled high neck longer sleeved blouses, very dainty and very much like grandma used to wear when SHE did a right and left thru. So "swing 'em high . . swing 'em low , . . keep on swinging your calico." . . . it's for a good cause. "The Hart of Fashion" 22 S.
