]. ]. HAGGARTY TELLS
OF EUROPEAN JOURNEY
New York Store Manager Re-
turns with Superb Gowns
for Fall Opening

]. j. Haggarty of the New York store
has returned from an extended trip to
Europe, where he enjoyed every mo-
ment of the time, but still is glad to
be. at home with his friends. Mr.. Hag
garty's tour was made more pleasur-
able by reason of his being with two
brothers most of the time. 1t is fair to
presume that he rather surprised both
by his ability to combine sightseeing
with wideawake business.
Mr. Haggarty went to see things; he
also went with the determination to
bring to the New York store the latest
in women's costumes. While he had
an appreciative eye for the classic
beauty of ancient cathedrals, he was
also looking for classics for his thou
sands of patrons, and found what he
sought.
Mr. Haggarty's trip across was un-
eventful, and in speaking of some of
his experiences he said:
my arrival in London saw the city
filed with Americans and due to them
the Strand and Trafalgar square were
not as somber as would have been the
case had everybody adopted mourning
for the late king. The English are pri-
marily patriotic race. Even the mid
die class people testify their respect to
the memory by donning a somber garb.
"As the mourning period expired,
everything seemed to be 'hobble, hob
blel' The new hobble dress is very
much in vogue in Paris and London.
Everything seems to be 'hobble.' The
women on the street look as though
they had both legs in one leg of a
pair of bloomers, and it is a common
occurrence to see busmen assisting
women up the steps of the buses on
account Of their helpless plight when
wearing the new hobble skirt"
Mr.. Haggarty made extensive pur-
chases in Paris, Florence and Berlin,
including many beautiful creations in
Partisan gowns and costumes, which
are on the way now, to be displayed in
the fall opening of the New York
Cloak and Suit house. 1t will be an
education and a very entertaining dis
play for the women of Los Angeles to
see these original French models which
Mr.. Haggarty personally selected. He
said yesterday:
London, Paris, Florence and Berlin
each has a charm of it's own, but it
was in Venice and Rome that the days
were too short, and 1 left with a keen
regret that my stay could not have
been extended several weeks to admit
of a more leisurely inspection of the
many extremely interesting sections of
these historic cities"

other chance. However, the court did
not take ''chance" and remanded him

PLANS PARTY FOR
TOOTH BIRTHDAY
Mrs. Elizabeth G. Foord to CeIe-
brate Centennial Anniver-
Sary of Birth
AGED WOMAN IN FRAIL HEALTH
Surviving Friends of Calico Days
in Los Angeles to Honor
Lady BountifuP
BY FLORENCE BosARD LAWRENCE

BY FLORENCE BOSARD LAWRENCE
The centennial anniversary of the
birth of Mrs. Elizabeth G. Foord VIII
be celebrated Tuesday, August 10.
Madame Foord lives with her only
son at 2265 West Twenty street
now, although her residence in South
ern California has been also at San
Gabriel and at Long Beach, where she
resided with her niece for two years.
Coming to California in 1874 TINS
woman has numbered among hef
friends the most distinguished men
and women of the city she ldentlneu
herself early with the Unitarian
church and it's work and was known
always as a lady bountiful, quick with
her charities and warm with her SYM
pAthies for those/upon whom want or
trouble had fallen.
Madame Foord lived with her son on
his ranch at San Gabriel in the days
of her early residence here and her lIIe
there was filed with the sweet do
mestic cares of house and garden and
she found much pleasure in the sim
plicity of life which Madame Caroline
Severance has since dignified with
special expression-"the calico days of
Los Angeles"
Neighborhood visits were given over
to self cultivation. Glasses were
formed and one group of women
passed many profitable and interesting
hours in a class in biological investi-
cation. Madame Severance, despite
her residence in the city, was an at
tendant at these classes and frequently
refers to them now.
Before the matter of equal suffrage
commenced to attract general atten-
ton from men and women Madame
Foord had given 1t consideration, and
belonged to the first suffrage club or
ganized here, when Mrs. Elizabeth
Kingsley was the president. She was
always advanced in her Ideas and pro-
gressive in her thoughts. She travelled
extensively in Europe and resided in
Brussels and Paris two years with her
niece, Miss Margaret Fette.
Although a native of Boston. where
she was born August 16, 1910, she lived
after her marriage in Dedham. Mass,
occupying the same house in the GEN.
ter of the town for forty-five years.
Before her marriage she was Miss
Elizabeth Davenport. Her husband
was influential in politics. occupying
q position which had been his fathers
and in which he later was succeeded
by his own son. Her home was one
to which the sorrowing and suffering
always came and comfort and relief
was never refused. The great attic of
the old colonial house was replete with
treasures upon which the generous
hostess could draw for all supplies.
The celebration of the Tooth birthday
anniversary of this woman will be of
the most simple character, as her
health is frail and her surviving
friends one of theh best known of
whom is Madame Severance, are few
in number and, like herself, lacking in
physical strength.

RECORD SlX-DAY GRIND
Judge Rose Disposes of 438 Mis-.
demeanor Cases

One of the busiest weeks in the police
court in point of the number of cases
in the history of the police department
was closed yesterday.

lators of the city's ordinances during

thirteen persons were arraigned before
him on felony charges and 43S misde-
meanor cases were taken before him for
his judicial action.
notwithstanding the enormous num-
ber of cases taken into the court, all
the cases were disposed of in some
manner. A large number were viola
tions of the ordinance requiring a quar-
terIy license tax to be paid on rooming
houses. There were 175 of these: Vio--
lators of the traffic, light, fire and speed
ordinances all formed part of the
bulk of cases handled in the court.
