WILL TEACH PUPILS
TO KEEP OFF TRACKS

BALTIMORE. Md. July s-Act-
ing as the representative Of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, J. W. Aydon OF
Wilmington. publicity agent OF the P.
B. and w. railroad, has received the
assurance Of the local School Commits
sioners and School Boards throughout
several counties in the State that the
public school children will be in4
structed not to walk on railroads.
IL is planned to have this instruc-
ton part OF the school course. the
teachers citing the dangers Of tres
passing on railways in order to im-
press It on the minds of the pupils.
Besides this. Mr.. Aydon will AK
preachers and Sunday school superin-
tendents throughout the state TO adj
wise the children attending the respec-
tive churches not to walk on railroad
tracks"
The officers of the Pennsylvania sya-
tenn of railroads hope by having the
cooperation of the school teachers the
children will learn as they grow up OF
the dangers of railroad walking, and
that In a few years the practice viii
entirely be out Of vogue.
According to Mr.. Aydon, many
deaths and accidents on railroads are
due to persons walking unauthorized
on railroad tracks Especially is this
true in the rural districts, where per-
sons walk the railroad as a short
cut to a distant point
Thus far Mr.. Aydon has visited Bal
timore city. Baltimore, Cecil, Hartford,
Talbot and Kent counties. The various
school authorities in these places have
given their approval of the idea
I'm the last IL years 10000 persons
were killed while walking on the rail-
roads of our country and $4,000 were
injured" said Mr.. Aydon. IF people
would just appreciate the dangers
| they would not use railroads as a
footway."
Mr. Aydon will visit every county
In the state and then will visit sew
eral other states The Pennsylvania
Railroad will send representatives
throughout the country endeavorins
TO securing the cooperation Of all
school officials.

HINTS BY MAY MANTON
A FASHIONABLE GOWN
OF BORDERED FOULARD

Bordered foulards are among the
smartest of all things this season and
black on white is especially well
liked. This gown shows that combina-
tion, with the bolero portions and
band on the skirt of beaded mar
qusette. There is a trimming of
beaded banding on the blouse also
and there is an edge of the ball fringe
that makes such a feature and is al
ways so pretty. Altogether, the gown
is in the height of style and the most
practical possible, for it can be made
available for many occasions and for
many uses. The guimpe is entirely
separate and any preferred one can
be used In the illustration, the blouse
is shown over a guimpe of lace, but
as separate ones are used they can be
varied to suit the special need. The
blouse is one of the simple one-piece
sort, in peasant style, but it is made
of two materials to give the bolerO eff
feet. The skirt is simply straight,
plated at the upper edge and it Is
stitched fiat to do away with all bulk
It can be finished with the high waist
line as in this instance, or with a
belt as preferred. Both patterns are
tAlltAutlN oluDltf gHl Nutg NdA b1
made available for many different
materials. In place of two materials
the blouse can be made Of one and
tr'mmed to give the bolero idea. Chif-
with rows of beads makes a
charming effect. Plain crepe de
Chine or satin or other material can
be trimmed with banding, or, in place
of the beaded marquisette, could be
used a plain satin or some similar
fabric The skirt is especially adapt
ed to bordered materials, but can be
made from a plain one trimmed if pre-
ferred Embroidered fiouncings are
much liked this season and the skirt
made from such in eyelet style with
the bolero portions of the blouse of
all-over eyelet embroidery, in match
ing design, and the front and lower
portions of plain material to match,
would make an exceedingly attractive
gown, absolutely different in effect
from this one, yet utilizing the same
model.
For woman of medium size the
blouse will require 1 "a yards OF
fancy material q. or rs yard SO OF
"A inches wide for the bolero por-
tions; 1 yard % or SO for the plain
portions. For the skirt will be need
ed 2 IL yards of bordered material
as inches wide with IL yards OF
banding; or IA yards of plain ma
terial %, yards SO or 2 5-S yards
A inches wide.
A May Manton pattern of the
blouse, No. 7OO9, sizes "a to AZ inches
bust, or of the skirt. No. 6999. sizes
