The American System of Dress-
making has been prepared by ex-
perienced, practical dressmakers,
working jointly with practical
teachers, both in high school and
college work. The system is being
recognized as the most comprehen-
sive and complete for class-room
work that has been published, and
is fast being introduced into high
schools, academits. and colleges,
offering courses in Domestic Sci-
ence and Art, It is an independ-
ent proportion system, concise,
thorough and scientific; contain-
ing over 400 pages, and 200 ex-
planatory illustrations. It is ac-
companied by a tailor's square
and model drafts.
The Washington City Librarian
recently stated in a letter to us,
that he had difficulty in finding
suitable text books on this partic-
ular subject. Later on, in ac-
knowledging receipt of^ the
''American System," he Sdid:
"This system is one which will
be of great value to the Library,
as it contains more information
and much more detail in accessible
form than any other which we
have at present."
Teachers of sewing are' invited
to write or call for special terms
to schools and colleges introduc-
ing the American System.
