LOUSES have come back

to town. And very frivol- vus they are-nothing of the rather earnest outlook

on life which used to characterise them when they were last the rage. Necklines aro important, course. They have to bear a good deal of the responsibility of your summer skirt, which is as

The best of many of the little blouses is that they can be made up from remnants which are not long enough for anything else. This is especially so in the case of a blouse with a sleeve, that ran be made out of a strip of material.

It would be rather amusing if it were made of printed organdie with a jacket lining to match. And why not have a sleeveless jacket, so that the blouse sleeves will show:

A printed linen blouse, burton- ed down the front with a demure turn-over collar and a smart belt. could be worn with any odd skirt, provided that the colour of the latter matched the print-in spot, stripe, or floral design.

If the material tends to stretch, it will be best to bind the head opening, cutting bias strips from material to head measurement. This binding will tack in beneath.

If the material used, is very thin and light, a fine millinery wire can be inserted inside the edge of the brim to stiffen it.

Women with small or oval faces may find that if the side and back points of the beret are turned back and stitched lightly down, the effect will be particularly becoming.
