When dressed properly and admired by all who see them, mothers feel that the reward la worth all the time consumed. More Important even than having people admire your children is the sense of grooming, poise and wellbeing that is being developed in your youngsters as you choose clothes for them which meet that standard of fashion rightness. True, you dont have to worry about hemlines on little girls dresses as about your own, or about the extent of the cuff on a little boys trousers as your husband is concerned about his, but still theres a certain amount of fashion which needs consideration. Certain styles may be better on your little girl than others, for they do have small individual figure problems. Then, too, colors can be as important to them as they are to adults. Some do more for them than others, as you can easily find out just by trying on a few things. Your little boy and girl can probably look just as adorable as some youve seen pictured even though their clothes budget is limited and mother does the sewing.

An armload of cheap fabrics that fade and thin with each laundering, skimpy styles or too large clothes and sewing without regard to whats good on the tot will do nothing more than cover him. Good fabrics chosen with a keen eye as to what's right in style and color, sewed with care will make of the youngsters angels even when theyre, details. Its discouraging to see children outgrowing clothes so rapidly, and for this reason many mothers like to make clothing a bit on the large side so the youngster can grow into it. Theres no better way to start an inferiority complex in the young not! If you start early to instill an appreciation of quality, workmanship and styling in your youngsters, youll have given them qualities hard to duplicate. Take Tips From Top Designers Any mother who sews for her children would do well to copy some of the trade tricks to top childrens designers. For one thing, good quality dresses, trousers and other articles of clothing are never skimpy. Youll find skirt fullness because designers take tthe required two widths to make them perky. Deep hems are employed because they make skirts fluff out, not because you will want material for lengthening. Collars should be appropriately narrow, and tiny, well puffed sleeves are essential for chic. In boys clothing, the trend is to simu- - with well styled clothes. than to have them improperly fitted. Whether they tell you or not, they are aware of how people look at them, and how their friends react to their clothes. Clothes often lose their style because they are practical, and its far more satisfying to have them fun to wear and be admired, than to shy away from putting them on. Its easier to spend the few extra hours doing more sewing than to undo damage to the spirit. Its better, too, to have a few carefully sewed clothes than a closet full of hastily thrown together THE READER'S COURTROOM - Freight Car Is No Plaything -- By Will Bernard, Full or part time, Juat send name, address lor Iree copy of Specialty Salesman Magazine givtnf hundreds of immediate openings with reliable firms.

The latter never wash well theyre In constant need of mending, and the style is impaired unless proper sewing techniques ere used. Select Fabrics, Fasteners For Washing Ease New designs and colors are available in fabrics every season, but there is little change in actual fabrics to use for childrens clothing. Novelty fabrics are for adults, be they men or women, but the more conservative materials look better on the youngsters. For play clothes, select the sturdy materials which wash easily, and are sunfast: corduroy, broadcloth, duck, denim, gingham, poplin, percale, calico, rayon, seersucker and cotton gabardine. In dress clothes, linen, chambray, pique, dotted swiss, organdie, sheer cottons, fine lawn and muslin may be employed. Although some textured materials, such as corduroy, are favored for play clothes, the smooth fabrics are much more popular for dress. The smooth surfaces mean easy ironing and less opportunity for picking up dirt while being worn. All fabrics chosen should be sturdy enough to hold buttons, fasteners and such essentials. Dont be afraid to experiment on the different types of fasteners being shown even though you may never have seen them used on tots clothing.

Grocer Would Revive Old Art Ramapo Mountaineer Basket Art Is Goal Pincus LADENTOWN, N. Y. Margulies, who opened a country store here 45 years ago, is attempting to revive the lost Ramapo mountaineer art of making baskets, scoops, salad bowls, spoons, chopping bowls and various other wooden utensils. Pines Store, a trading post both for the mountaineers and the residents in near-b- y movie and professional colonies. has been run by the founders son Harold since be returned from the war. When Margulies arrived here in 1904 there were 200 residents in this hamlet, and in the adjacent hills 150 mountaineers, descended from the mixed races who settled there before and during the Revolutionary war. Scotch, English and Hessian were the principal strains, with no Negro or Indian blood, such as predominates with the Jackson Whites, who also live in the Rama' pos but miles to the west. The mountaineers were making and peddling their wood products to summer visitors when Margulies and his wife came from Brooklyn. He took over the trade and established outside markets. The weekly output of these 150 widely scattered mountain inhabitants soon reached 200 dozen baskets, 100 to 140 dozen scoops and a miscellaneous assortment of products, including colored baskets for the bon voyage steamship trade. The mountaineers daily income soon was $1.25, Margulies said. I paid each only a small amount in oash, as they wanted to be paid off in merchandise and food from the store. When they were without money I gave them flour, tea, coffee, groceries, tobacco and medicine on credit. They would rather have a stock pile of materials in the fall and each spring I filled dozens of freiglft cars and their bills were paid. Farm Loans for Vets The two agencies are also an ex- ample of decentralization of government, since all loans, both in HOLC and FHA were made in the local counties through operation of local committees made up of men who passed carefully upon the applicants and their loans. FHA is currently making farm loans to veterans and has approximately 15 million dollars available for this purpose this year. This means that with an average loan of $7,000, some 2,200 war veterans will own their own farms by the end of the year. As a matter of fact loan applications already have passed the, 75 million dollar mark. ' Speaking of farm prosperity approximately 5,400 farmers lost their farms in 1948 due to foreclosure or bankruptcy. Another 2,000 lost farms via the tax delinquent route. This however compares to approximately 70,000 farms lost in 1940. YE?, SIR! PRINCE ALBERT IS RIGHT FOR MY PIPE I PA. SMOKES COOL AND MILD AND HAS A GRAND, RICH TASTE, TOO I iWM AND PA.

Curtis E. Calder, chairman of the NAM international relations committee, has apparently forsaken the high tariff principle for he now endorses the principle of "accepting more imports than exports.
