Materials for Girls Gab :udme gray flannel and navy cheviot are all used in suits and coats for â€" girls, Suits are apparently very popular with both children and parents, which constitutes something rare in the way of an entente cordiale. The children like them because they make them feel grown up and "dressed," and the parents like them because thoy look, and stay, neat, and can be used for many purposes. One smart suit is made of a finely checked wool materâ€" ial and has a full swinging skirt and a fitted tailored jacket bound. with a harmonizing color. A coat that would delight the heart of any growing girl is soft sky blue camel hair, cut on polo eoat lin‘s. (By ELIZABETH R,. DUVAL) New Yorkâ€"Fortunately for the famâ€" Hy budget, fashion in children‘s clothes does not change very rapidly. Skirt lengths stay put, hats continue to be hats and not fiowered divots or velvet tents, and the chief annual economi: problem is a relatively simple matter of allowing for growth and expansion. Nevertheless, children are much tetter dressed today than they were twenty years ago. MHome creation may have been fine for adults with Paris fashion books to follok, but almost any one over twenty years old today can remember being bundled off to school in som» embarrassingly awful homemade conâ€" coction. Now, however, one can buy practical, wellâ€"cut and appropriate children‘s clothes for as little as, if not less than it would cost to make them at home. The current news in garments for the young is covert cloth. This is a smooth "men‘s wear‘‘ type of fabric that tailors beautifully and wears well. It comes in grayish tan and blue. Lightweight coats are made in this material for every ago from 3 to 15. The one for babies is a little doubleâ€"breasted reefer, with stitched pocket flaps, and a slightâ€" ly fiared skirt that ends about three inches above the knees. For a small girl there is a singleâ€"breasted, fore fitted ecovert esat with patch pockets and slightly squared ~shoulders, and for sizes 12 to 16 there is a straightâ€"cut, doubleâ€"breasted sports model. â€" Small bovs wsuld be made happy by covert Some of the New Things Of the Present Season Practical and Wellâ€"Cut Clothes for Children.

Any one who already has a mink coat, an elecâ€" trie washer and an annuity, can blow nerself to a new portable electric reâ€" corder,. After the record has been made it can be played back on the same machine, and the whole business comes in a luggage case about the size of an overnight bag. A new traveling luggage case for records is an improvement on the old type. This one has an accordion paper file inside and the records go between the pleats. This is much safer than the old way of putting cardboard pieces ketween. The case is covered with leather and hold about twenty records.

It works on the principle of a bicycle stand. The records slip in bet‘ween upâ€" right Vâ€"shaped spokes that are set into a wooden base. This rack will hold fifty disks and the wires are covered with red and blue cording. There is a numbser key printed on the bottom which can be checked with a blank catalogue supplied free, if any one is actually that systematic. GARTH TEEPLE SPEAKS ON POLITICAL POLICY a halo hat or around one of the skull caps. Amateur milliners could have a field day for very little money with some assorted straw hat shapes and flowers. Natural colored or navy skull caps in rough straw would look well just plain or with a feather clasped with a brooch on the side. If one wants more of a hnat, a bunch of flowers and some veiling could ke used instead and for devotees of the pillbox shape there are some in red, blue, black, turquoise and natural straw. Flowerâ€"like ruching that looks like the paper trimming on a baking dish could be used under the brim of "ejector‘"‘ for the curl which avoids pulling and tugging, and in the‘ fact that the pin can be worn inside or out of the rolled curl according to how one turns it. It sounds complicated but it‘s really quite simple. Inveterate knitters would find a speâ€" ciai stitch holder a great convenience. This is a large safety pin made of plastic which has inches and subdiviâ€" sion marked on it. It is a little over four inches long and would be good for taking exact measurements. A small and inexpensive gadget that would be useful is a little metal wire implement for cleaning combs and brushes. It looks like the Japanese yamâ€" boo rakes used in the garden and does a thorcugh job on even the most dense combs or brushes. Nervous folk could also have a lively time using it for scratchin‘g. Pinâ€"Type Hair Curler Also an aid in the pursuit of good grooming is a new type of pin curler for the hair.

Small bows are also !making a comeback in footwear. i â€" Shoes this year are not built as high over the instep, as was the fashionable trend last spring. They have a snug yet not overwhelming appearance, which is the correct accessory to the dressmaker and reefer style clothes that the fashionable woman will wear. One of the newest chiffon versions emphasizes the widely accepted slim silhouette. It is the longâ€"sleeved evenâ€" ing gown with flashâ€"inâ€"theâ€"dark emâ€" broideries down the sleeves or accenting the neckline. This, too, like so many of this year‘s sheer sensations, was inâ€" troduced by MHartnell. Taking a big step away from the bustle and picturtâ€" sque bouffant dresses of a short time ago, this" eminent designer favors the longerâ€"thanâ€"average waistline to top a pleated skirt. FALLS SMOOTHLY Another silhouette version which is bound to gain many friends for skeer is the corseletâ€"type bodice gown. This is mounted on a full skirt. It looks especially well because rayon chiffon tucks and shirs so beautifully. Proâ€" tected shoulders, a major 1940 evening gown feature, are lovely in the fabric for the same soft reason. When you consider that the sheers for this season are being treated to many new whimsical hues, these styles become especially attractive.

For instance, without any coaxing on your part, rayon chiffon will fall in desp, lovely panels. It thus provides excellent evening gown translations of the Grecian influence. As the classics are back again for evenâ€" ing wear, this is welcome news. MINTIMIZES LARGER CONTOURS Rayon chiffon in classic gowns is becoming to the more mature figures.
