If it be green and preaches the gospel of color and sings its psalm of gladness, and has been coaxed into exist ence by the loving care of its owner, then it will be a real garden, with its high lights and shadows, even if it be within the confines of four wooden sides; and it will ever exhale an atmosphere of contentment that is sweet and satisfying. Garden togs are fascinating, becoming, and easily fashioned of almost any stout material. Gray, green or brown denim or khaki make the most durable smocks, and it's smocks you want, for they are sufficiently loose to per mit you to work unhampered. Use a pattern with a large armhole in preference to one with a kimono sleeve. Such sleeves admit of free arm motion. Make the skirt quite short, so that when you bend over or dig the hem will not touch the soil. Perhaps you will prefer knickerbockers, for they are more practical.
