The coronation girl will be the newest

which artists have been picturng and
poets versifying for the last twenty years
or so The great event in London at which
40 many Americans will be present will not
only introduce all sorts Of new styles and
customs, but it will make an entirely new
and refreshing fashion in femininity.
In London and in the near-to-the-throne
circles the girl will be at her best rather
than when she reaches this side Of the
water, probably in the late summer at
! Newport OF early in the fall in town In
New York she will be the Americanized
version, but she will be none the less charm
| ing, for the American girl Of all others can
best stand the toning-down process which
will be necessary for the coronation maiden.
II is decreed that the new type of girl
is TO go hack to the sweet old fashions.
! The ingenue has been practically absent
from grldom for many years. People Of
conservative tastes look about them In
vain for the damsel Of blushing is. She
is unknown in the ranks OF the up-to-date
misses, who in conversation dress and

No less a parsonage than the King aided
by Queen Alexandra will have part in the
evolution Of the coronation girl. Since
Bensons "Dodo" elect rified the world with
the picture of a lively En- glish society girl,
modelled after one of the best known young
women in London, the girls of the English
capital have been going in for wild and
hilarious behavior which has won for one
| particularly smart set the title Of the
-Hooligans.
Now the London papers have announced
that the King and Queen have determined
to reform girlhood on a model Of sweet
simplicity. According to one chronicle
the ieune file is to be reinst ated and re-
formed "she will not" he goes on to
state, occupy a prominent position at
Court. She will not be encouraged to
hold her own against matrons, young or
| otherwise. She will be very properly
treated as a girl and nothing more"
-Under these circumstances, says the
paper in question. I'VE may reasonably
expect that the young girl will soon be put
back into her proper place and that, beng
there. she will regain the charm Of simplicity
she has lost.
most decided beginning has been made
| by the King. His Lord Chamberlain has
been instructed to inform ladies' seeking
| presentation at Court for their daughters
that the presentation, if accorded, will
end the young woman's appearance in
| Court circles. Unless she be a married
woman, invitations and the other many
! courtesies of the Court will be denied to
her.
In other words. the young girl of the
| period is to be made TO take back seat
| so far as the coronation is concerned. OF
course, she will accommodate herself to
| the inevitable and will meekly relapse
| from her position as the most important
| figure in society TO the comparative OBJ
| scurity of rirldom.
