simple morning frocks. while the

AS usual in children's clothes. there
Is no question Of which is appropri-
ate-they are perfectly interchange
able. for children never reach the ex-
treme Of dressiness attained by the
older members Of the family. Good
taste in dressing children consists In
simplicity in line and cut. while wise
mothers also use only plain materials.
Silks and 1aces are not for Children
all of those magnif1cences come later.
A much dressed child resembles moth

doll. Wise mothers. too. select hats

Light colors and fragile straws should
be reserved for girlhood. Plain straw
bonnets will better stand the rough
treatment accorded them by a really
healthy child.
From the standpoint OF both use
and style the two coats Of today are
good. for in cut they are quite
unique. while in trimming they are
plain and practical.

amounts, which will far exceed the
amount originally mentioned in said
law. The committee Is OF the opin-
ion that the operations of the act
should not be hlndered or impeded
and that the additional acreage
should be made available.
"The operations OF the Carey act
in dealing with the arid lands have
been most beneficial It's workings
have resulted in immeasurable bene-
fit TO the states concerned, and have
under the dual guardianship Of the
nation and state, eliminating almost
entirely speculative holdings so far

operations no land is segregated to
the state until both the state and gen.
eral government are satisfied that the
lands desired are to be. can be. and
