WOMAN'S WORLD

FOR OUR LADY READERS

That Three-Quarter Skirt.

[By a Middle-Aged Woman.]

"My dear, you are nearly 14! It is time you wore longer frocks." Thus was, the doom of my child- hood pronounced many years ago. | Neither my tears and pouts nor the scorn of my three playmate brothers availed against mother's ultimatum. Decency and morality demanded that I should at once adapt that ugly mongrel affair, a "three-quarter" skirt.

Symbol of Sedateness,

I still joined my brothers in their hedgerow and brook-side explora tions, but that clinging garment. symbolic of approaching eedate.. ness, spoiled it all. I even con- tinued paddling for a while with my skirt held daringly up to just below the knees. But one day a rural policeman, coming upon us suddenly, held up his hands in holy horror. I stood with

my brothers in midstream, my dropped skirts fapping against my damp shins, as I listened to the big, heavy voice: "Well I'm surprised at a big girl like you, missy, a paddling and showing your legs like that!"

My brothers paddled without me henceforth.

Spolled the Fun,

My skirts grew longer and longer. They spoilt my fun, my business days, and my household work, with their hampering folds, their linings and hem-stiffenings, brush edgings, long crossway seams for ever atretching out of shape, and their petersham bands which strangled if they fitted and showed hideously if they didn't. The joy of training a little daughter was dimmed by the con-

A flat fold at the V neck and neat cuffs of plain satin bring the whole into line.

FRECKLES AND HIS FRIENDS

For a really chic afternoon frock, there is nothing to beat soft moire silk, and berry-red is a good colour to choose. This one is fashioned on novel lines, too, with a pouched bodice having long sleeves in one with the shoulder piece, and a skirt flaring out in a couple of flounces from the deep, close-fitting`.'

The Day That Never Dawned, But that dreaful day never dawned. Instead, I found my own skirts growing shorter and shorter and my years falling from me with the inches..

And now, alas! wicked fairies, in the shape of dress designers, are talking seductively of how beautiful we look if we let them make our dresses longer. It is all rubbish, bunkum flapjack, and jiggery-pokery.

And I absolutely decline to aid and abet a fashion which will set our girls once more
