Clothes for* the Kindergarten Age By CHERIE NICHOLAS A S IF college-going daughters ami those of high and grammur-school age were the only ones who must face the "eternal-feminine" question of dress. which the back-to-school season always brings on ! What about the myriads of youngsters In kindergarten or in first-grade classes? Well, It's mother who must solve this problem. To be "practical" In childhood's realm, clothes must yield kindly to frequent tubbings. From this point mothers are finding out that corduroy for tiny-tot coats and any one or more of the now-so-popular durene cotton meshes for wee folks' frocks serve a hundred per cent perfect. Not only do the good looks and the washable qualities of corduroy speak In its favor but the fact that the mod ern weave Is so much more supple than the old-style corduroy ano lighter in weight, makes this material In finitely easier for the seamstress to handle. And so, mothers who know have come to consider corduroy a medium-Ideal for the making of chil dren's school and playtime apparel. The corduroy coat-and hat "set" which little Miss Curlylocki is so proudly wearing In the plcturc might wisely be included In the wardrobe of I any little girl who must go back and forth to kindergarten during crisp au tumn days. Much to the delighi of its wearer it has a cunning white bunny appliqued on each pocket. A self scarf ties In cravat fashion close up around the throat In latest adult fash ion. The neckline Is, however, ad justable In that the coat can be thrown i open, forming lapels at the front. PREDICT VELVET WILL BE POPULAR Velvet Is verging on one of the big gest vogues it has ever enjoyed iu the fashion world. Until recently worn mainly by the mature or elderly woman. It has sud denly become one of the smartest fab rlca of the dny and French factories arc now working day and night to sup ply the demand for coming fall and winter clothes. There are many new varieties, the heavily woven velvet and the soft light ones, the chiffon ring variety and ve lours mousseline, as well as an ex tremely fine and silky sort made at Lyons. Dresses, coats, hats and even shoes are being made of velvet "Little Convict" Is New Hat Popular in London A new hat Is taking London by storm. It Is less eccentric and "diffi cult" than the boater or pillbox, which had a brief but devastating popularity, and Is called the "little convict." Like the beret. It is u type of skull-cap, but Is more formal than that charming but abused plect of millinery. It consists of three strip* or trian gles, sewed to (It closelv to the head, but with a peak coming dowi on the forehead, taking off the bare look that the Just-gone fashions have had, and is seen In almost every material. It can be adorned very successfully with a feather or spray of flowers, or a Jeweled clasp ? which, by the way, doesn't really clasp anything? and Just as successfully left quite plain. Shirred Print# Printed sheer costumes are shirred so that the print Is most charmingly blurred. Sometimes the whole frock Is shirred and the Jacket Is left un shlrrod ? bo that there Is a pleasant contrast of design between the two. CrocH?t Hiti llrlmined hats of Irish and simple thread crochet mesh are replacing the brlmless crochet caps that everyone was wearing earlier In the season. Rough Cotton* Not only are theae new tweedy looking cottons especially smart for suits and matching top coats but they make simply grand beach coat*. Mocners seeking materials for little girls' school dresses are making new discoveries In the realm of cotton fab rics which are proving genuinely help ful to them. They are finding smart durene cottons so artfully woven as to have an expensive woolly appear ance whereas in reality they are un bellevedly low-priced. Diagonals, ribbed effects, basket weaves, herringbone stripes and all sorts of fascinating novelties are included, and in a range of delectable colors from pastel tints to the very latest autumn reds, greens, navies and browns. The oldest child in the picture is gowned in .an attractive dress made of durene cotton mesh. It features a yoke which buttons up the front so that it will slip on and off easily. There Is also a matching bolero (in her hand). The ball and cord tie which Is an effective trimming touch is easily made of yarn. The Jaunty little durene mesh brimmed hat Is an Interpretation of a French Juvenile fashion. The whole outfit washes beautifully ? comes out looking like new from each tubbing. A tiny-tot wardrobe would not be complete this season without at least one knitted costume. One can get such "cute" little sweater-and-sklrt outfits and In charming color combina tions. These uiake n great point of interesting stitch effects. ?. 1932. Western Newspaper Unloa.

"Ladle is the Happiest Girl" So many mothers nowadays talk about giving their children fruit Juices, as If this were a new dis covery. As a matter of fact, for over fifty years, mothers have b e e'n accomplishing results far surpassing anything you can secure from home prepared fruit Juices, by using pure, wholesome Cal ifornia Fig Syrup, which Is prepared Tinder the most exacting laboratory supervision from ripe California Figs, richest of all fruits in laxative and nourishing properties. It's marvelous to see how bilious, weak, feverish, sallow, constipated, under-nourished children respond to Its gentle influence; how their breath clears up, color flames In their cheeks, and they become sturdy, playful, energetic again. A Western mother, Mrs. H. J. Stoll, Valley P. O., Nebraska, snys: "My little daughter, Roma Luclle, was constipated from babyhood. I became worried about her and decided to give her some California Fig Syrup. It stopped her constipation quick ; and the way It Improved her color and made her pick up made me realize how run down she had been. She Is so sturdy and well now, and always In such good humor that neighbors say she's the happiest girl In the West." Like all good things, California Fig Syrup Is Imitated, but you can al ways get the genuine by looking for the name "California" on the carton.
