Perhaps you have hdd a child try
naughty Marjorie’'s solution of hot
weather discomfort. Marjorie simply
took her mother's big shears and cut
the sleeves right out of one of her
play dresses! Probably Marjorie was
punished for such an act of apparent
vandalism, But should she have been?
Shouldn't her mother have realized
that both Marjorie and the season
were several jumps ahead of her prep-
arations for warm weather? And that
Sleeveless Print Summer Dress.
Marjorie probably had no Idea that
little girls’ clothes are not left with
raw edges, like doll clothes, or that
she was destroying some useful cloth
by cutting the sleeves?
If Marjorie's mother were a very
wise woman, she might even have
been able to explain the matter to her
child, so that Marjorie would want to
help repair the damage by hemming
the cut-off parts, or by helping to hem
binding on the armholes. There are
ways to use almost any happening in
a child's day to give her new ideas and
a better understanding of the reasons
behind the things that grown-ups do.

paredness would, of course, have had
on hand a supply of comfortable
