QIMPLICITY, më le ty and grace are the fire requisites of the ideal enstame for a young girl, whe ther it is in ports clothes, dressier afternoon apparel or her first party

ZOWIH.

This winter, clothes for the younger generation adapt many of the style points of the mature styles. But they barrows them out right. For Unq mitt be nothing sophisticated about an adolescent girl's clothes or they fail in their appropriateness.

skirt is not. Yokes

both for hotires and skirts are good, for they carry, with them a youthful note.

Young girls have their own ideas of dress mwadays. Tweeds are the choie par excellence, for service able attire for suits and "little frorks." Cover! cloth, diagonal twills, repps in fine lines and other roughish fabrics are extremely chic and suitable. Crepe de ahine, velvet and satin are the dressier choices.

Blues are of the finest choices one can make in selecting colours for the adolescent girl. This year the me. dium blue is lovely with clear, young faces. Ruddy browns, tawny yel lows, hard greens, bright red and tuns are all on youth's calour card

this winter.

For evening baby blue and pinks of all shares are excellent, followed by that glowing, warm yellow known as daffodil.

SUITS are especially good this year for the young girl. But It should be a plain tailored suit, a cardigan with pleated skirt or one of the "tweed "ensembles with three-quarters

coat.

The "iltle frocks" are perhaps the season's triumph, They combine the joyous nonchalance of youth with the lady-like restraint of the maturer years ahead of the wearer.

This features the circular skirt. the neck yoke and the new fuller sleeve that is apt to buckle shut inte a tight curr.

Fine seaming marks off in points the line where the skirt joins the waist portion and the same fine scum- ing outlines the round yoke that dips to a sweet point.

Fine Seaming, Circular Skirt and Novelly Belt Give Youthful Charm To This Beige Woolen Frock From Best's, N. Y.

entirely. This season we have a new term, "lady dress." Young girls! follow the fashion set by older ar biters of fashion and ask that some of their informal frocks give them that quiet, air of gracious sedatencas so charming in a woman.

Such a frock is the little velvet one show at the top of the page. It is a medium blue, polka-dotted by half-moons of a soft light red and trimmed with a deep hem, belt and neckline of red wooden bends in the same shade,

A full skirt is ahirred to simulate a front skirt yoke and the luxurious. softness of the full panel fails grace- fully. The sleeves, have puffs, of plain.velvet polka-dotted in the bands that the shut with a tiny bow.

CHOOSING the proper hat for the

young girl is a difficult feat. For too old a hat spoils everything and Loo young a one makes it look as if her mother is trying to keep her a child.

The model of light beige felt shown In the circle has its sides slightly uneven, with a couple of plents on the wider side, for extra chic: A moire ribbon bands It, with a knot tied on the side and its slashed ends hunging off the edge of the felt. This moire ribbon has several shades of blue and green in it.

An evening frock of extreme sim- plicity is the one of pink crepe satin shown at the lower right. It has fine sequin embroidery in a deeper shade of rose to trim it. There is no speck of ornamentation that is not an essential part of it.

It has a neckline that only extreme youth can wear well, simple arm. holes, a slightly molded bodice and then a beautifully fitted skirt.

As proper accessories for such coal, the young girl must choose beautifully tailored things, but not fancy ones. A smart little hat, with half a brim and only a grosgrain or leather banding is quite appropriate.

Long ago nothing deserved more, sequins hem the frock, too, and thought than the so-called "Sunday fashion a tiny shoulder rose bouton-

nere on one shoulder.

The frock shown at the top centre dress." As such, it has disappeared

Deeper rose fashions the waistline bell and the front bow, both of which are heavily sequined in rose. Rose
