The ^familiar Niamhray aud gingham, and also cotton pop tin and rep which luivo served for wdldren's school frocks generations upon generations have not heen supplanted h.v any oth et^ material for the cotton tuh frock this year.

Simple little one-piece frock*, cut with laxly and sleeves in one have Die edges of I he neck and sleeves finished with a narrow cro cheted edge of wool or a plain scal lop. The rope-stltch Is another of those effective embroideries which work up so (pitckly that It Is Just a Joy to trim little frocks with them. (?> MUl'AU. A Patriot if Dress in Military Style. CroN<-stitcli and little embroidery mot if s in outline-stitch for trimming collars cuffs and yokes, and sometimes belts, smarten tlx* simple school frocks and make them much more attractive to fhe children who wear fhem. Very often little frocks are trimmed only with bindings of a contrasting color. Nothing is easier to accomplish than this, and it Is a good way of using up those .small pieces of cloth which have remained over from other dress es. This fall there is something new in styles for both girls and hoys, and this is the military element which is frequently noticed. The sketch above shows a military dress for girls*, but toned downnthe front and provided with an ampl^ supply of pockets. The dress is developed in blue serge with flannel collar and cuffs, and a red, silk tie makes a kind of patriotic cos tume which Ifj sure to appeal to the patriotic instinct of the schoolgirl. There are some of these dresses made with detachable capes rebelling to the waistline. Some of the eapesTTave turned-Amok revers in front. faced with pretty colored silk which Is also used for the lining of the capo. One of these dresses in serge or gabardine Is just the thing for autumn wear, as the cape makes a separate coat un necessary at the beginning of the cold weather. Some of the suits for little boys are also equipped with these military capes. Boys have, thls?year, trench suits and trench coats-?Just the very name alone will excite their Interest, but the styles, too. will please them. The coats are cviit like those of the soldiers and belted at the waist with leather belts. Little suits for small boys are made with straight knee trousers and long blouses. Double breasted effects, straight closings and vests are featured in the blouses which are sometimes finished with small round collars and again with sailor collar*. The fall coats for children are made of 'soft woplly materials. For best wear, velvet and velveteen are used, and the collars and cuffs of fu-. Shoul der capes and jackets add distinction and Interest to the little models. - Young Folks on Camp.
