Bridge Coats,
In the PIONEER SILK STORE I was
interested to find some little bridge coats made of velvet chintz. They are well cut, lined with good quality silk and quite inexpensive. I was told that they will make these coats
Warm And. Gay.
In the PIONEER SILK STORE I saw some charming little pyjama suits for children of all ages made of printed Japanese flannel. This material is excellent for children's wear as it is warm and light and washes extremely well, and any youngster either here or at Home would be overjoyed to have one of these gay little suits to go to bed in. They are made to fasten well up in the neck and the trousers are cut fall.

An Ensemble In Weatherproof Material.
The garment shown on the left- hand figure of the sketch is ideal for playing in either cold winds or rain, Lightweight weather-proof material is used for it, or it could be made from a thin mackintosh that has become too shabby for general wear.
Collar, revers, fronts and cuffs are out away (a treatment that dia- poses of the shabby parts) and the front is joined up to form a dress A new turtle collar and cuffs are made from straight strips of ribbed knitting (1 plein, I purl).
When knitting the piece for the collar cast on very loosely and cast of tightly.
The loose cast-off edge is stretched to the rather low neck, opening. This stretching gives the collar the effect of continuing into a circular yoke. It is fitted with battons and loopa so that it can be worn apen or closed right up.
An Accommodating Design. -- This is such a very light and com- fortable garment that it can be worn even on fine days when there is the alightest doubt abort the wea- ther. It will fold into a suall space that it can be strapped to the golf bag for emergencies without adding unduly to its weight or bulk.
The same design could be follow- ed to give a new lease of life to a plain rep or thin wool coat,

The advantage of these garments over ordinary coats or cardigans lies in their freedoni from any loose edges that might sway in the breeze and dis- tract the attention during a stroke. This particular model is intend- ed be carried out in that very closely woven tricot material that resembles sudė.
Comfortable Garments For Stretching.
Tricot fabrics are always most comfortable for auch garments as they stretch across the shoulders and back where elasticity is ab solutely necessary, unfortunately they atretch everywhere else as well and are liable to lose their shape. after very little wear.
This difficulty is overcome in this design by lining the lower part with thin non-stretching silk and cover. ing the space with machine stretch- ing. Berides giving a fashionable finish, this keeps the jumper in shape for all time.
It opens in front to a point just above the waistline and is fitted with revera and a collar, so that it can be closed up snugly in “cold weather
