The accompanying guide illus-
hates plainly how the material
should be folded for the proper dis
tribution of the pattern sections.
The front gore rests on the length- ‘-
wlse fold. the side gore being placed
to the right of it with large "Q" perv
forations resting on a lengthwise
thread. The piecing for the lower
edge of the side gore is laid to the
right of said gore, along the salvage.
The back gore is placed on the
lengthwise fold.
Opposite the front gore there is
room for the pocket, which is so
placed on the material large “0" per-
forations rest on a lengthwise thread
of material. Arrange the straight
edge of the belt along the selvugo of

ter ll along crossline of double small

The jersey cloths are going to be
very fashionable for separate skirts
because they lend themselves to deo-
orative schemes composed of em-
broidery and braid. The tendency
in color is to the use of neutral and
dark tones of somewhat unusual
character.
