By CAROLYN KAMPBELL ‘She fair, divinely fair, fit love for Gods.” (Milton: Mothers-in-waiting need not hide in the house during the last few months. They should be out wearing the variety of flattering fashions now available to them. A working mother-to-be natur ally has more in her wardrobe than a housewife. Mrs. Bob Moskop, 1718 Picher avenue, has a colorful closetful, including some for work, some for house work and some for play and nights out. For work Dorothy has several matching tops and skirts. One of these, an aqua skirt with a white, aqua and lime green blouse, looks like a Mondrian painting. Another is charcoal brown, in a fabric which serves as a transition into fall and win ter with a blouses added to the sleeveless ensemble. Another two-piece is blue and white striped seersucker and Dorothy also has a bright purple skirt to match a floral print sleeveless top in mingled colors of aqua, green, lavender and purple. Two one-piece dresses, made from the same pattern, are a blue and white checked cotton with a fringe of lace at the neck and lace trim on the pockets, and a lavender and white check, with a row of white daisies across the bodice. one Dorothy made and one her mother, Mrs. Walter Meador, made. Right now Dorothy is hemming a black sleeveless jumper, an other transitional cotton, which she will wear with a white blouse when the weather warrants. For a dressy afternoon she has a three-piece suit, of beige sum mer linen with a floral blouse The blouse will also do with a pair of black corduroy pants or to alternate with the charcoal brown top over the brown skirt. Her really dress-up dress for evenings out is a black silk shanting, with draped — chit fon which dips for a low neck line in back. She adds a string of tiny pearls to finish the look. More play stuff is a pair of white shorts to go with the Mon drian blouse and a “‘perts’” outfit of a blouse with matching ber mudas and split skirt.—. Joplin Globe-News Herald staff photo graphs.'
