FOR SEPTEMBER SCHOOL DAYS

Particular attention must be given
to the dress lengths for small children.
II is very easy matter to spoil the
charm of dear little frock by having
the skirt an improper length. The
correct length is just to the knee.
The widespread popularity of the
one-piece box pattern for children CON
tinues unabated. There is, however.
a general tendency to modify these by
the use of yokes and applied trim
mings.
No garment is more essential to a
small girls toilet than the guimpe with
sleeves. She should, as matter of
fact, be supplied with at least three
of these-one somewhat plain. for o.
binary wear; another for semilress
occasions, and the third OF lace for
extraordinary needs. With three such
garments the mother will be relieved
OF much perplexity concerning her
small daughters wardrobe.
An old fashioned sleeve adornment
is now being revived and affords a
very pretty finish to a child's dress.
It is made of flexible bands of gold.
and fastened with gold clasps.
All kinds of children's dresses are
being developed with the Dutch neck.
From the plain gingham to the elab-
crate lingerie the fashion is carried
out in endless variety of treatment.
The useful REFER coats are no long
er confined to boys wear. They are
shown for girls, developed in serge
and cheviot. with velvet or collars
made out of the same material. They
are fastened with fiat pearl buttons
A number of one-piece pinaforces
are being shown for children. In these
the body and sleeves of the garment
are all one piece, the only seam being
under the arm. The pattern, which
is unique. can be finished with sash
across the back.
The newest models in the boys Rus
sian blouses are made to slip over
the head, and have square ends finish
| ing the wide sailor collars.
Children's hosiery is now shown in
all the shades. They are embroidered
IL many cases, and look pretty witt
low shoes or dancing slippers.
Girls sailor suits in chambray. with
striped French Galatea collar ant
cuffs, will be worn all winter. The,
are nearly always edged with thre,
rows of white braid, silk tie. emblem
on sleeve and plated skirt.
The new bonnets for the child from
months to years are extremely at
tractivc. They are all white. sheer
fine goods. In dainty flowered desigI
and in lace embroidery. Some o
them are on the sunbonnet order tn.
others OF the Gretchen or Dutch style
The latter look quite elaborate. but

ers rose up as one and II rained hats
canes. handkerchiefs and umbrellas for
some time, and there are many sore
throats in Durango today from the
yelling.

Ninth Inning - Telluride - Friel

Morehead struck out-again. Miller
got to second. Ward singled. Caldwell
hit to Wisser-and goodbye Maude.
The Telluride boys acknowledge that
Honskea was altogether too puzzling
for them. He showed this, when at
critical time he gave the batter three
balls and the next three went straight
over the plate, two of them so swiftly
that the first thing the batter knew OF
IT was when loud slap in the catch
er's glove informed them that the
ball had gone by. The next one was
one of those easy ones at which the
batter made a swipe and the side re.
tired.
Hall, is good pitcher, as pitchers
go, but he has only an underhanded
throw. while Honskea has several
kinds of twists up his sleeve, and
doesn't throw two consecutive balls
alike.
Telluride showed the Crouch when
they refused to allow runner for
Wiser and Hughes when they were
hit by the pitcher. When Hall was hit
the Durango boys generously gave
their consent for runner to take
his place.
The Telluride boys, who by the way.
are fine lot of fellows OF the dia-
mond, will probably remain here
week and in case they do there will be
another game on the home grounds
They may remain until fair
week. They expect to make a tour
over the state later on.
Telluride men were offering two to
one on their team and a good share of
their coin is in possession of Durango
people today.
Efforts were made today to get up
a game tomorrow, but the Durango
boys expect to go to Pennington and
play Silverton Wednesday and Thurs
day and 1t would be too hard on Hon
