Wear Your Old Clothes But Pep Them Up for New Charm Some timely advice on how to adapt last year's wardrobe to this season's needs, is contained in an Interesting article in "Fashion" this month. Of couse if you were a millionaire, you'd be able to throw out last year's dresses and skirts and sweaters and start fresh every season. But things being as they are, last year's clothes have to help out this season again as usual. But they can be wonderfully perked up with a little thought and Ingenuity, Your cardigan sweater from the Spring before last, is it hanging unworn in the cupboard? Here's a' second chance for it; dye it black, get some white crochet cotton and crochet a two-inch ruffle down the front, round the neck and cuffs, and wear it with a black crepe skirt. You will have; 'something much dressier, which you can wear for late afternoon parties and on movie dates.

A plain dirndl skirt which is as good as ever, but becoming a. bit of a bore after all this time, can be tooled- up for another season by adding bright appliques around the hem. Get 'a yard of splashy cretonne, and cut the motifs 4hen stitch them on the sewing machine all around the hemline. And back to sweaters again a thin black wool pullover is a "must" in this season's wardrobe. Wash and press it, and go to the notion counter, where they sell gold sequin trims.

Pick up a larger applique for the shoulder, a smaller one for the right wrist and stitch them on. There's an evening blouse, which can go on your smartest dates. Somewhere In the back of the cupboard is probably an old model two-piece wool dress. Good, but you re sick and tired of it Try this: Get some matching or contrasting satin ribbon, and stitch it all around the two fronts and around the bottom of the If it has pockets, pipe the pockets Satin Is smart this year and you'll feel as good as new. Maybe all that last year's clothes need is fresh accessories, last Spring's black suit worn with black accessories can come out again if you invest in a yel low hat and yellow gloves.

Your grey flannel, which was worn with white blouses, can team with bright red sweater, a red bag. The date dress with the Jet trim will come up to date, if you invest in one of the cute jetted beanies. I Birthday Club MARCH 23, Barry Wayne Dunne, age 7. Jean Elizabeth Glenn, age 13.
