With all her heart she wanted a new dress. But she brightened up again when it was found that she had entirely outgrown her last summer’s frock and that no amount of “letting down” w'ould make it large enough. As a result next day Fashion Fanny and her mother went down town to buy a Decoration day frock. Dress after dress they looked at—organ die, voile, crepe de chine and georgette—and at last they centered their attention on the two that arc shown in the picture. But which to choose they could not decide. The one with cream lace is of white crepe de chine. The other is of white French voile trimmed with rows of val lace and deli cate hand embroidery. Both looked so well on Fashion ny that neither she nor her mother eoT~.r make up their minds. Fashion FaniT wanted them both, but she could have only one. Which would you have taken had you been in her place?
