Some favour plain cloth with applique or stitching on the ends and sides of the scarf und some- where across the bag. The mak- ing of the new, full, round or oval types of bags is a simple matter for those who have made evening bags. Applique work may be effectively arranged following the outside line of the bag, in a row under the handle and des- cending at one side, or perhaps covering one complete half of the
Strong thread must be used for sewing the cloth to the handle as the usual pitfall with home- made bags is the breaking away of the handle. The stitching too should be as inconspicuous as pos- sible, that it may not proclaim itself home-made. Thorough work- manship must be employed for the entire bag. Neatness is of para- mount importance as a shoddy ap- pearance may spoil the beauty of the smartest cloth and the most artistic design. The scarf enda will probably hold more of the i chosen design than the bag, though it is hardly wise to over crowd it as loss of grace may be the penalty.
The lining should be of stout cloth with a lustrous surface that will resist dirt and retain its op- pearance. It is well to make the lining a little smaller, than the actual bag as it will then tako the jar of any heavy thing, stow. ed in it, without allowing the. bág to be spoilt in shape.TE

The judge revealed himself as an all-round sympathiser with the new fashion, and even admitted that, in his free hours, he him- self went barelegged and sandal- led. If, he said, the daughter of the house went to the tennis court without stockings it was difficult to see why domestic servants at home should be compelled to wear them.
