Tinged With
Unconscious Wit Is Often Deeper Than Adults Can Realize.
“By OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON Little children are natural-born clowns. Their unconscious humor is delightful to witness and especially to hear. . 1 take a day or two off from more
serious things when our small fry}
come to grandma’s to visit, just to absorb their young freshness, and
enjoy them, as well as to study, oh,|
so tactfully, their reactions to experience. Deedie is nearly 4 and Mary is almost 3. Lowrie is 6 and has started to country school and carries his little dinner box, much to my delight. If you belong to the ranks of whether you have any of your own or not, may I quote some of the funny things these little troupers have said? Read between the lines, and notice the memory, ingenuity and imagination involved.
Surprising Memories
“Deedie had heard the story, perhaps months before, of the chicken thief who, to the owner’s demand of “Who's there?” replied: “There's nobody here, but us chickens, boss.” Nobody knew that she had understood. Besides ali those weeks had elapsed. -One day she hid in the closet. Her mother went about pretending to hunt. “Where’s Deedie?” Finally she winked at me and said, “I do believe there is somebody in this cupboard.” But the stowaway. sang out instantly, “There’s nobody here but us shoes.” One-day she was singing as she colored -her animal book with crayons. “Oh, the kitty kissed the dog and the dog kissed the cat. I want my lover back to me, oh, I want my
I asked her one day what her galoshes were made of. Very promptly she fixed me with her big blue eyes and said seriously, “Steel. The very best steel.” Her story of how she lost her “jacket” on the road and how a dog named Kaffin Boony (I asked its name several times and it never varied) pushed her away and took it home, was classic. She invented by the minute and it took 10 to complete this novel. It had plot and drama, but not a word of truth. At the end, I said, “Well, well, that .was wonderful, and to think it all happened to you.” She said then, “Yes, 1 dreamed it,” which was also a rank fabrication. . Another time she said, as she sipped her milk, “My, this milk is as cold as darkness.”
Pronouncing Judgment
Mary, the toddler, is a grave one with eyes that sparkle with little star points when she smiles. She was getting fitted out in a snow suit. Looking at herself in the long store mirror, she stood like a figure: of judgment, still and stern. “It's simply gorgeous,” she prohounced solemnly. She bounced into the dining room where we were eating one evening, and knowing it was her ‘bedtime, thought she would divert attention. She had her dolly. “I'm ‘Mrs. Jones, hello,” she announced. So I said, “I'm Mrs. Smith, good-bye.” Her eyes twinkled. She knew, turned around and stomped upstairs. She came to me one day when her mother was. hurriedly making a dress to cover a new but naked doll. “She’s making my material,” she shot at me, and bounced out. I could go on. The wisdom of babes always delights me. The days are filled: with cute things. Are they just cute? You tell me. I Sing they hold a world of mean-

‘Snow White and Dwarfs’ Make
Dress Pattern
By ROSETTE HARGROVE ‘ PARIS, Jan. 5—This is the time of year when a new evening gown
to be just a little ahead of current
styles—the sort of thing that reflects spring trends.
Year are silk prints created by Colcombet reproducing the characters of Walt Disney’s film, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” Paquin has |. used this very effectively in a formal afternoon dress which could also do duty as an informal dinner dress. The print is in subdued tones of rust red, white and beige on a black background. ‘ The dress is made on simple lines with a full, swinging skirt edged with a deep band of silver fox. The fullness is distributed all around from the waistline with the fur acting as a restraining influence at the hem. The bodice shows a full front and easy fitting back, long sleeves and a high neckline. A high waistbelt of soft: red suede stresses the small waist. All the features in this model may be accepted as a fashion
forecast for next season.
Another Version
Ardanse uses another Walt Disney print in a different manner. The same design is shown on a red background and the dress is cut on simple, straight lines. Long, bellshaped sleeves in white silk jersey with the new wide armholes which Ardanse launched for the midseason are encrusted with the little figures of the print scattered here and there and a deep hem of the same jersey on the skirt. If it is a practical afternoon dress that you need, nothing could be smarter and newer than the soft kid embroideries that Francevramant shows right at the moment. She uses this to match the color of the dress—in navy, corinth red and black—in the formyg of complicated arabesques forming a plastron on the bodice and sometimes to retain a front godet on the skirt.
+ The newest evening gowns offer
the widest diversity of styles. The.
Interesting and new as the New®—
wide-skirted ones have the fullness gathered into the walist-line, or attached to a long-waisted bodice that ‘covers the hips. Others show fullness concentrated either in front or at the back, and detached apron panels-are a new fashion feature. Corselet belts, encrusted or separate, will continue well on into the spring, so will the swathed hipline launched by Maggy Rouff and the fitted, thigh-length tunics of Mainbocher.
Blouses Freshen Wardrobe
One of these tunic blouses, by the way, would be a very elegant addition ‘to any wardrobe and would help eke out a winter suit or long coat. This can be made of satin, crepe or jersey, in black or ‘navy blue to match the suit: or in a directly: contrasting color. : Again; a tunic wil give new life: to a tired evening dress; provided the skirt is cut on long, slim lines. Hemmed with silver or mink, it becomes something extremely elegant, yet easy to wear. One thing to bear in mind, however, is that so far as style goes, the tunic should fit through the diaphragm and thighs like “the paper on the wall” with soft touches of shirring ‘or drapery emphasizing the bustline,
ensemble is an almost indispensable number, especially for the more limited pocketbook. These consist of a dress and jacket to match. The dress can be worn alone and is
Worn with the jacket, it is good for the theater, for digner and all other functions where full evening dress is not called: for. The jacket is ‘usually trimmed with. glittering embroideries, on the lapels, cuffs or fronts. ‘Gold, silver or shaded embroidery effects are newer than Pliieslornsd paillettes and will date ess
