Il. L. Dlckerson competed for
the laurels in the five nile race.
The contest was exciting and
chock full of interest from the
word go. Dickerson took the
lead from the start to the fifth
lap, when his machine ran off
the track on one of the curves
and Schmitz took the lead before
the fast little racing machine
could get Strengthened out. The
race was in doubt up to the very
end, when Schmitz crossed the
finish line bare two feet in the
lead. The time for the FIVE miles
was 7:O5, which is exceptionally
good considering the condition
of the track. which was only
completed o day before the open

Atlanta Maids and MatronS Are
CompIimented on Way They
Handle Motor Cars.

If ! had TO ride a hundred miles an
hour in an automobile I'd feel safer
if woman were doing the driving"
That statement about expresses w.
j. Stoddard's belief that women make
the best amateur chauffeurs in the
world Mr.. Stoddard, who ADMITS that
he's an automobile bug" of the most
acute sort, declared that in all his
experience he had never seen such
competent careful, speedy drivers of
autos as are a half dozen of the young
women who spin daily up and down
Peachtree street
There's Miss Myrtle Hancock, of Ju-
niper street, for instance, who makes
about as pretty picture as anyone
could want to see as she sweeps up
the avenue in her runabout at a dash
that is always pressing the speed limit
Miss Harriet Calhoun, Miss Mary Helen
Moody Mrs Phinizy Calhoun. Mrs. S.
c. Dobbs, Mrs. Marshall Mckenzie. Miss
Helen Dargan and Mrs w. J. Stod-
dard are numbered among the other
Atlanta women whom Mr. Stoddard de-
clares are better at the tiller of a car
than most men
More Careful by Intuition.
Here's the point" said Mr. Stoddard
"A woman's sight is quicker than a
mans. They'll see danger ahead soon
er They'll run more carefully by m
tuition where danger is and that same
intuition makes up the time for them
on the good stretches of the road. Mrs
Stoddard for instance, will take me
through Atlanta in our machine in less
time than | can make the same trip
myself. and she won't hit half as many
rough spots
Then a woman knows more of the
psychology of automobiling than most
chauffeurs | have met. Wen say your
machine is making time on a city
street and that when you're ten yards
or so from a corner a man steps off
the curb into your path. If a woman
happens to be driving that car her
first quick look at the face of that
pedestrian will tell her infaliibly
whether he's he sort of man that's go
ing to keep on across the road or
whether he'll step back and give her
the right of way. Many accidents
have known of have happened because
the chauffeur didn't guage rightly what
the pedestrian was going to do, but l
never knew woman driver to hit
man like that
And anybody who says that women
can't learn automobile mechanism like
a man doesn't know what he's talking
about Mrs. Stoddard understands our
machine far better than ! could learn
1t in hundred years. 1t makes you
feel mi ghty silly, of course, when you're
out driving with a woman who has to
start your machine for you when you
get into trouble and are tinkering
around helplessly yourself
incidentally, | don't know Of a
much prettier sight than a pretty wo-
man guiding a speeding electric up a
city street, do you?"

All of the neighbors were in~night

even chunks of clay against the walls
and smashed out window panes until
Henry arose. He made dash through

SARTORIAL HINTS.
By Elizabeth Lee

I am glad to see a return to favor OF
flounces. They show so much elegance
and, correctly arranged, certain
amount of dignity and also display to
such advantage the beauty of lace, fine
! embroideries and the pretty sheen OF
transparent fabrics.
Elderly women should rejoice in the re-
vival of the fiounce, for the short,
skinny model worn lately was most un-
becoming, save for youthful figures.
The tall, slender woman will find
f1ounces the greatest charity, and, while
the stout figure may not indulge in them
to the same extent, the slight drapery
effect of founces will be very much
kinder than the straight. plain skirt
And saying this brings to my mind an
ideal house frock 1 saw recently, de-
signed for full figure. not over tall. The
material was mushroom color, silky CASH
mere, and the design extremely simple.
The waist was quite plain and came down
to the waist line in effect, revealing a
long vest composed of two skinny flounces
of lace. The skirt separated at the waist
line to reveal three overlapping fiounces
of the lace. The sleeves, in kimono
style, were bell shape at the elbow, meet
ing long mitten cuffs of the lace. The
| skirt was round length, a small, square
! train appearing in the back.
The front edges of skirt and waist,
also the bell sleeves. were trimmed with
a simple embroidery design carried out
| in dull oriental colors and little black.
| Cords started at the waist line front
under two small round cabochons, and
were knotted at the side back.
AS there must be lots of lace ruffies
and fiOuncings lying by, the above may
be a suggestion for utilizing some of
| them.
The deep founce set on at the knee
| and dropping at the sides will suit the
| tall, slender figure admirably, but fold
| as heading will be a better choice than
/ the pannier usually seen topping this
| f1ounce. The material above the flounce
may differ from that below. but, to my
| thinking, it should lie fiat, not bouffant.
Flounces of chiffon and soft silks hem
| ming the skirts will be generally becom-
| ing if not made too full and tiny, over
| tapping skinny ruff1es will be quite as
| suitable to mother to her daughter.
Some of the new models are showing
skirts side pleated all around in old style.
but fancy this is going to be too heavy.
/ The effect will be prettier and the gown
| feel more comfortable IL the fiounce is
pleated In groups, or If the skirt is made
plain and then slashed at intervals to
display a simulated pleated flounce. Many
this bit of fullness about the feet.
| Then there is the full skirt gathered
into the belt, and again below, say, be-
ginning at the knees and slanting off
quite sharply toward the back. This
gathering Ton cords) creates a founce.
| but it is not a style that can be gen.
| orally recommended. Also. only sheer or
very soft materials are suitable for this
model.
