Frocks and frills for girlish scholars, For the boys, new suits and coUars; For 'tis plain as A, B, C, School clothes should be smart, you see. New York. Aug. 18.?With the approach of school days, father and mother are in a daze themselves occasioned by the astounding reallza| lion that the high oost of learning Isn't caused so much by school I books as by fashion books. Smart children /-all fnw ?m?r? -? ? ??J neither little Willie, nor Polly Ann can "do that sum" without some clothes. Fortunately, In spite of the fashionable expenses perpetrated on bis folks, simplicity Is the keynote of the fashions for school children this f.Vl. The long straight llneta 90 \ recklessly adopted by the fat and I thin grown-ups alike are the ideal lines for the adolscent grace of I school-girlhood. 6erge Is the favorite material'and blue the approved color, with dark green and brown, and dark shade# of red not ^feklng in popularity. Many quaint and original llttlo frocks are evolved by a combination of dull-toned Roman stripes and plaid fabrics with the plain serge and a penchant for gold and silver buttons promise* to bring gleams of brightness into the dark depths of an examination day. ? ?? uvuial i; t?I IIOUL UlVUfll Ul the plain and striped combination* la of dark blue serge with a sleeve>. .. 1.1. n .i-iataM dine falling In a straight line Tram the neck to Just above the knee. The tunic Is bound with black braid frogs of the same and two rows of brass bullet buttons across the breast. Little rolling white collar Is of plain white linen and a black patent leather belt confines the hips. Another model tlge big sister's new frock coat Is of plain blue serge hanging straight from the white collared neck to the knees and buttoned all the way with round buttons of silver. The long plain sleeves have a row of buttons four deep over the wrist. It has a plain bluo serve girdle and the underskirt Is of dull plaid. Gulmpes of white crepe de chine, pussy willow taffeta, and white china silk worn under quaint blue serge Jumper dresses brightened occasionally with brass buttons or sashes In black satin are as practical as they are charming for all of the gulmpes can be "tubbed" beautifully at the first spot of ink or other school marks. A cunning smock frock of dark blue serge and blue taffeta has an avLuiuiuu [iieaiea oniri 01 ine ?ergn with the loose smock waist of the taffeta belted and finished around the bottom with a band of serge. The collar and cuffs are of white linen. Another good style dress is of blue and green check material made with the long straight waist cut outlow in the neck over a little front of Hutted batistes wit a rolling collar. A belt of green leather completes a costume that will keep any little girl who wears it from feeling blue, and turn green with envy any little girl who doesn't. | Small hats are as derigeur for the school mi* as for her bfcg sister, and they are as good in the small sailor \ shape as they arc in the little round velvet brim less affairs. It is all merely a Question of youthful fancy or maternal. On the sailor shapes, usually only a band of ribbon is uspd and even on all other shapes little trimming Is seen save a tiny cluster of fruit or flowers or perchance a smart quill or a saucy wing. "With tiny hats, pleated ekirt*. long loose waists, and hip sashed and baits. It certainly Is hard to tell .,<21 whether the elders are dressing like the school girls.
