Vegetables In Education.

City boys and girls who never have
seen growing cabbages, pumpkins,
corn, potatoes, spinach and other
garden produce soon may have an op-
portunity to supply the deficiency in
their education. The School Teachers
Club asked the West Park Board yes
terday to set aside three or four acres
in one of the parks where vegetables
may be raised by the school children.
Frank E. Tremain is at the head of
the movement. The teachers think
this will be a great advantage for
yonng children, who think that grass
hoppers make grass and that butter
flies make butter. There are many
children, they say, who believe that
potatoes grow on bushes and who do
not know whether watermelons come
from the water works or grow on trees.
Yet these same children can find the
copNnn denominstor of things and

With a Demi-Train.N

A cool gown for summer wear is OF
old-blue crepe de chine. The skirt
has q "demi- train" and falls in long
graceful lines. The only decoration
is the groups of fine tucks which are
cunningly managed to make the best
display of the natural lines of the
figure, and to give additional height.
The waist is a modified bolero shape
in front, edged with creamy lace,
which accentuates the outline of the
two jacket fronts. The lace seems to
run upward under the armhole from
the deep points in front. A vest OF
white chiffon over cream satin shows
it's narrow line in front. A high
girdle of old-blue phnne velvet rises
beneath the jacket fronts. The plain
sleeves are edged at the Aaring cuff
with lace.
