It is pleasant to face a summer that
promises to find children and
grownups sensibly and beautifully
clothed.

Plain colors in cotton cloths appear
in about the same shades as those that
are boasted by satin or georgette
crepe, and some of the new cottons
have a finish as soft as georgette.

These materials made up with organdie
in white or in contrasting color
are to be credited with as pretty
frocks as can be made. We have only
to look at the frock for a little girl,
shown in the picture, and imagine it
in any of the light colors: rose-pink,
canary, blue, jade green, with frills,
collar and cuffs of white organdie, to
appreciate its beauty. It is too simply
designed to need description, but one
must not overlook the cut of the collar
which is wide in both the front and
back, nor neglect to notice that an
organdie frill finishes the taffeta hat.
White cotton sox and canvas shoes be-
long with a dress of this kind.

Next to the plain colors for frocks
of this kind, small checks in white
and a color find the most favor. They
all requisition plain white, in organdie
or in a heavier weave, to touch up the
color and give the frock daintiness.

In the little frock pictured we find a
dress equal to dress-up requirements,
and in it the young maid may make
her journeys to Sunday school or to
parties with equal assurance.
