Nothing more unusual than black, crepe-back satin and white crepe de chine, which can be purchased any-rtere, any-rtere, are required for this fine bit o( artistry in dressmaking and one of the most gratifying things about present-day modes and materials is that uyone who chooses may have them. It takes very little fabric to make a frock and styles are not difficult for the home dressmaker to copy. The model pictured Is a straightline pattern pat-tern varied ty plaited godets set in ct each side at the hipline of the skirt portion. This gives the dress the fashionable flare besides added grace ' line and freedom in walking. The Mersleeves and shirt-bosom front of He crepe de chine are prettily rned with small, oak-leaf design, from the black satin and outlined with narrow black braid.

These frocks have, usually, short yokes and are sleeveless. The dresses, gathered to the yokes, are very short and have narrow hems ; It is just above these hems and on the yokes, that the drawn work appears, In different designs. A small hat to match has the same sort of adornment. Pastel colored voilea offer about the best medium for frocks of this kind.
