Weaves of every description lay stress on these pitternings. Such Interesting novelties are highlighted as plaid velvets, plaid satins and plaid taffetas. Jacket suits of plaid velvet with tailored suits for the blouse, are among the Joys in prospect, also for smart semi forma I daytime dresses of either plaid satin or taf feta. Satin plalded In blended colors being much newer than taffeta one naturally feels a more spontaneous urge to make it first choice. Satin- back silk moire overprinted with a .variation of a plaid makes Its ap pearance among dressy fabrics. For sports wear Jersey, flannel, crepe and sheer woolens also re flect the Influence of dotted, plalded and striped themes. Younger ma trons and girls are especially keen about Jacket suits made np of pat terned Kforta fabrics which accounts for the attractive sports costume of a printed crepe of dot motif which Youthful and ever-smiling Barbara Kent wears -between sets'’ when her presence Is not demanded before the movie camera. A Jacket suit of this character Is vvoii tuned to autumn needs. A further point of Interest stressed In this attractive suit Is the use of bows. To live up to the mode of the moment one cannot escape bows. The Jacket In the picture fastens with bow ties—two of them. Bows which tie are especially fee fared In connec tion with yoket. the necklines of the new frocks often being thas stylised. Then, too, the blouse which ties at the left hip w<tb a soft bow occurs throughout advance displays. Whole flocks of little bows aie used for trlm- tniug the new modes, which answers the call for ’‘dressmaker” touches even on aeml-tallored garments. Referring again to stripes, plaids and dots not only do they flourish In the very fabrics which fashion the dress or ensemble, but they often add an accessory touch. That Is the hat. the scarf, the hag, sulwcribes to their design. According to all reports fab ric hats which contribute to the en semble costume are diverting the tsl ent of French milliners to s new line of endeavor, and for these types very novel weaves are employed.

By 2:30 P.M. its owner had to call a police man to handle the crowd. The lat ter tried in turn to telephone for the reserves, but he had to give up the attempt because he found that he couldn’t push his way through the crowd to the telephone. The owner had to keep the store open till two in the morning, and draft hr* wife, sister and father—all the available members of his family—-to help him out. Small Cana Here to Stay ’ All of which goes to prove that the small can of processed food is here to stay. The new 8-ounce cans of fruit, for instance, which usually cost ten cents, are rapidly creating a cook book of their owu. Special recipes have to be devised to use the exact amount of food in these cans, and make enough of each dish for frohi two to eight people. Here is a sample of such a recipe: Pcar and Roqucjort Salad: Drain and chill the contents of an 8-ounce can of pears, and arrange on leaves of ronjfiine. Crumble Roquefort cheese coarsely and sprinkle in cavi ties of pears. Mix together a: beat well two tablespoons oil, half tablespoon vinegar, one-ei teaspoon salt, one-eighth tea paprika, one-sixteenth teas tard, one-half teaspoon s tablespoons chili sauce tablespoons mayonnais the salad and decorat of pimiento.

Dams Fashion Smites ^ By Grace Jewett Austin Dainty Lingerie Made for Little Girls’ Wear Underthings for the small girl are most attractive for summer, whether they are made at home or bought ready made. Pajamas are classed with underthings, for they are the ac cepted night wear of most little girls. Sjome of the new pajamas are made of colored dimity, some are made of flowered cotton crepe. Some are ail in one piece, some have separate jack ets. Blazer stripes In cotton material are also used for the little girl’s pa jamas. Combinations consisting of waist and drawers are worn by many young 7 sters. They are imported In finest French handiwork, they are made in good American factories and they are made at home by many mothers who like to sew suvh small garments. Fine scfdloping Is sometimes used as edging for these combinations, as well as for the combination consisting of underwaist and - petticoats—or slip. Lace is also used, and sometimes just a neatly sewed-on binding takes the place of either lace or scalloping. Some of the little petticoat slips have a narrow ruffle around the lower edge to give a slight swirl under the flaring frock, and these little ruffles are either scalloped or lace edged. Washable Crepe, Cotton, Flannel Are Favorites While cotton Is In the spotlight In all sports wear collections, and wom en hither and yon are appearing in cotton sunback sleeveless frocks, washable crepe manages to hold Its own. Designers no longer hesitate to combine sUk and cotton, and many a good-looking cotton frock is worn with • silk cost or the other way about. Breaking of sportj cotta, there la $ - Dame Fashion had the good luck thfs week to spend a whole day in the company of three pretty little children; a girl of seven, a boy of four, and a nine- mo n t h s -old girl baby.

It is not necessary to go back as far as the fussy, collared “Lord Fauntleroy” suits for little boys, and the ‘‘Kate Greenaway" dresses for lit tie girls, with skirts almost ready to trail on the ground, and productive of many bumps. There have been even later years that had superfluous ruf fles and extra amounts of trimming for the small folk. But this Is not true of 1929. Simplicity of line is Just as good for children's clothes as for the sports dresses of the elders. If ao ensemble is good wear for mother for shop ping, motoring or even more extended travels—so an ensemble suit Is un usually good, often combining a fig ured cotton or linen goods with a plain color, for little girls almost from two years of age and up wards. One does not have to be on a beach this summer to see on a hot day groups of children wearing the garb that used to be supposed to be sacred to the seashore; little suits mostly sus penders and the most abbreviated of trunks. Whether or not It was learned Oxford university which set the fash ion for wide-flowing trousers, certain It Is that the small boy profits by that style.
