Striped OoiLe Used
in WoUei Way

A charming dress OF voile is made on
the seHi-princess plan with the faint
stripes running from the shoulder TO
hem. but the panel which extends in
an urhroken line down the front is
made with the stripes extending from
side to side. This costume IS very little
trimmed. and depends on this peculiar
panel and its sUrpIice sleeves to carry
out the effect Of the wonderful lines.
The cOlors shown are pale violet and
white stripes, and the belt which eX-
tends around both sides, but does not
meet in the front. is Of violet linen.
The hat for this costume. made Of
violet chip lined with white straw and
turned uD on one side. was trimmed
with a wreath Of viOlets about three
inches in diameter and a white straw
aigTette

inexpensive Bands

simply trimmed with a deen band OF
wide ribbon on which Is appiiQued sew

why walking hats for women should
not be adorned in the same way.

Progress of the Jews

men who study criminals for six or
eight hours each day have not found
that the Jews furnish the most or the
worst criminals
Magistrate Walsh, for instance, who
for many years lived among the Jews
disputes the proposition He thinks
General Binghams statistics were
"tinged by prejudice" When he was
asked for statement of experience,
he wrote out this
''The statement is not founded on
fact-in my judgment it is i'll Gigested,
i'll considered and malapropos. If sta
tistics showed any such state of things
| would not trust them-in the face Of
my intimate knowledge and my per
sonal experience with the race for the
past forty years. This experience is
based on personal contact, for l lived
many years close to that part of the
city which is now called the Ghetto.
Progress Among Jews.
81 have seen a misunderstood, de-
spised and prosecuted handful develop
under our free institutions to the
power, wealth and position which the
Jews occupy today. Many of them
were my childhood friends They have
progressed against terrible odds.
"There is one complete answer to
the charge of crime against the race,
and that is their splendid family life
and the general absence of divorce.
The statement that nearly half the
residents in the five boroughs do not
speak English is another careless
statement-so careless as to indicate
the character of research of on which
the statement is based. Without 60
ing into too much detail we might
glance at a few figures.
"Take the Essex Market Court as
the center of most thickly populated
Jewish locality. Last year 1858 per-
sons were arrested and arraigned. Out
of that number only 10 were held for
the court of general sessions for
charges of the grade of felony, and
that number included many Gentiles;
1850 were held for disorderly conduct;
722 for simple assault; 125 for cruelty
to animals; Abs for violation of cor
poration ordinances; 2501 for violation
of sanitary ordinances and 1922 for
intoxication.

at is within the experience of every
magistrate that intoXication is a very
rare offense among the Jews, and yet
it might be argued that the figures

Jewish neighborhood, but we know
