'Every mother, and every father when it comes to paying the bills, knows all the immensity of the problem of Little Willie's clothes. If you buy him good clothes, he tears them, cuts them, burns them, pours ink and chemicals over them or, all else failing, grows out of them long before their due term of service has expired. If you buy him cheap clothes, he wears them through in about three weeks.' None of Miss Violet Brand's talks will, therefore, be more welcome than this one, in which she will describe how to make the small boy's knickers economically at home.

N.B. - The Diagram referred to in Miss Brand's Talk of March can be obtained by sending 2d. in stamps, together with an addressed envelope, to the B.B.C., Savoy Hill, London, W.C. 2. Please mark your envelopes 'Carpets.'
