Her own children wouldn't know a frill if they saw one. Their summer clothes are designed Ho simply that the most frantic of romps could do them no harm. For they, like most of their contemporaries, follow the fashions set by the Queen for her little Princesses. Every dress is cut on well-tailored lines in gay and easily laundered materials, and with the ploinest of cants. Thirteen-years-old huntered this summer after something "more grown-up," so for one of her dresses she was allowed to choose a style of her own with a charming little fitting bodice buttoning down to the waist, short sleeves broadened at the shoulders like her mother's, with small pleats, and a rather full skirt. The cotton material she chose with gay spreading Bowers was very successful.

The Right Style

None of her three sisters is as yet sufficiently interested in her clothes, but as they are separated in age by two or three years their mother is careful to choose a different style for each.

Ann began to think a little about the details of her clothes, and when these are soiled she must learn to stitch in fresh ones.

Boleros are very popular among the younger generation. Seven-years-old Susan had one in a floral slub cotton with a matching skirt, and a plain little tuciced blouse beneath. She is rather proud of her turn-over collar and her loose short sleeves with their bax-pleat down the centre. Most of her small sister's frocks are made in the same way -belted and with a rather high waist, full skirt gathered on: nothing, in short, to get out of order.
