LoNDON's CHILDREN.
Enort Being Made to Teach Them How

 to Play.
 Chicago Evening Post
 The letters of Mrs Humphrey Ward in The Times and The Spectator of London, convinced quite a number that tho poor children of that great city were in sore need of places where they could play. and so two experimental play scnools," or play centers'' have been established.
 But with the opening of these "schools" there has appeared the pa- thetic fact that the vast majority of the poor children of London do not know how to play. And of the 760, ,oO6 poor children needing to be taught have that need in aany way supplied. whether by play center. settlement work or the Children's Happy Evenings As sociation.
 The superintendent of one of the ex- perimental centers said; These Lon don children know about everthing," to which a schoo!master of "dlsmaP' Hox- ton added, except low to play" And of what small moment must be the Knowing about everything" to the chil5 who does not know how to play.
 The city in it's ruthless growth has left the child no place to play save the streets and alleys and an occasion al nit of small back yard. The poverty of the city has cut down the tims that the child may devote to play. And no wthat the city makes a belated ef- fort to correct these tremendous blum ders of the, past. it discovers that the child has forgotten how to play. and that it must be taught to do what ia as natural to the normal child aa breathing

the meaning of real play? Childhood without wholesome play is no childhood at all. Proper play and proper facili- ties for playing are the very best means of making healthy and normal men and women London long has overlooked this vital fact. and now 1t seeks to teach" It's children to play because it has come to realize the tre- mendous possibilities for evil in the playless child.

Bargains Now in Winter FrocIzs

A woman who has managed to get
along until now without purchasing
her winter suit will find that she has
not waited in vain. for truly extraor-
dlnary are the sales now going on in
all winter garments. When she con-
siders the price for a simple tailor COS
tune made to order and the prices
asked for a ready made suit of the
same style it is certainly a temptation
to wait until late in the season for the
great marked down sales
Before purchasing a ready-made
gown it is a good plan to look around
Well among the tailor costumes and the
most expensive models so as to ascer-
tain just what styles are in vogue. what
colors most fashionable as well as the
sort of costume best suited to the pur-
pose for which it is intended Velvet.

a good investment if there is not also

but this is not la mode. and If a
dress must serve a second season 1t
would certainly be wiser not to have
the skirt cut short. Short sleeves are
another matter. Practically no after
noon gowns, whether intended to be
worn in the street or solely for house
wear, have anything but elbow sleeves
ana short length at that. Although the
sleeves are full, they are so short that
last years models can be made over
most satisfactorily. The prettiest style
has small puff just at the top. below
which the material is tucked or pat
termed into tight band or cuff, which
IN turn is finished with short, that is,
narrow lace ruchings. The edging must
not fan below the elbow, and with a
velvet gown the sleeve may even be
some inches shorter than that. A vel
vet coat sleeve may be either half or
three-quarter length, no longer. With
brown suit should be worn nous
quetaire elbow gloves of the same
shade.

Lingerie waists are still worn, de-
spite cold weather, and while the mod
els grow more elaborate as time goes
on. that the bodice may be appropriate
with a smart cloth walking suit, in the
main the lingerie shirt waist remains
the same. While made of finest hand
kerchief linen, there is so much en-
broidery work deemed necessary and
so many yards of effective lace are en-
ployed that the ground work is pretty
well hidden. White bodices that are
to be worn occasionally with the hand
some afternoon coat and skirt are COM
posed entirely of lace and embroidered
batiste, the waist being worn over a
lined silk or satin slip.
Satin under slips are warmer than
the washable silk and are, therefore,
better for this weather. Satin will
wash, too, although it is better to have
them cleaned, as. Washing turns white
rather yellow. This slip makes the
waist as warm as any lined waist, and
there is the advantage that the white
waist can be washed or at any rate
cleaned more frequently. than an elab-
crate silk or chiffon blouse that has
hitherto been smart even for the morn
ing. A slight figure, Of course. does
not require a fitted or bOned lining.
Cotton slips may be worn underneath
the simple lingerie waists, but never

These are, of course. expensive in ac-

afternoon costumes OF cloth or velvet.
With every such suit there should nat
urally be a waist to Correspond, but
nevertheless there will be any number
of days when a handsome white waist
will be found necessary to wear with
a street dress. Hand embroidery is
now seen so much iii all departments
of dress that the shirt waist or rather

the simple models so that it can be
imagined how exquisite are the really
elaborate waists.
Ruching is now scarcely worn at all
save in mourning, when a touch of
white at the throat and wrists is neces-
sary. AS all lingerie waists and the ma
jorfty of silk bodices are finished with
lace collar and cuffs, ruching and turn

with. All collar bands are now very
high and d, suggestion of the peak un-
