Well the suffragists can start all the
bonnet boycotts they like; the children Of
G.. W. do Lyon Nicholls's Sunday kindergar-
ten won't join them. one hundred spring
hats. trimmed by Mrs. George Kemp and
Lady Briggs and Mrs. Edward Lauterbach
and a number of other women who are
interested in Mr. Nichollss kindergarten.
were given out yesterday afternoon at the
home Of Mrs. Henry L. Burnett, No. Z
East 18th street. and no suffragette, not
even the Chinese, ever fought for the vote
as the dark eyed little Italians who went
up there from the Mulberry Bend district
and Front street. Brooklyn, fought for
those hats.
Anybody who could have had the temer-
ity to suggest that they boycott those gor-
geous hats for the sake of voting like men
well, they would have given that person
what he or she deserved.
AT o'clock the house was ready for the
children, the walls of the hall and front
parlor hung with a bewildering collection
OF red and green and pink and blue below
cred, beribboned hats, arranged so that
each Child could see them all and pick out
what suited her particular style.
At 2:O5 o'clock there arose noise of ap-
preaching feet and chattering tongues, and
at 2:l0 the army burst into the house, base
ment way.
Big girls. little girls. girls Juggling babies
and Juggling two or three toddlers by the
hand, girls in tidy dresses. girls in old red
sweaters and broken shoes, girls with Be
atrice de Cenci faces, girls with pathetical-
ly sharp noses and scrawny necks. but
every one OF them with her breast filled
with the old, old feminine desire to get a
becoming hat.
And at the tail Of them all came one
small and very much frightened boy. Tony
Frankonini. who was charged with the tre-
mendous mission of choosing a hat for his
sister, who was sick In bed at home

A Man Servant Besieqed.

Seeming the hats up above, the one hun
dred threw themselves at the stairs but q
brave man servant OF Mrs. Burnetts, who
has seen these distributions before, and
knew what would happen il the besiegers
had their way, blocked the door with his
body They wriggled and they bunted and
they pushed, but the man was game, and
barring four or five who swarmed over him
and under him, the one hundred were kept
at bay until Mr.. Nichols and Mrs Kemp
and Yvonne Stemmer and her sister, and
the rest Of the reception committee were
ready to have them come.
Meantime the girls. each OF whom had
number and was to be called upstairs by
IL. varied their attacks on the long-suffer-
ing man servant with appealing shrieks OF
call q! Call 80! Oh-h, Mister Nichols!
Please call 49,!
But IL was funny thing-when the first
batch got upstairs all their vivacity dis
appeared Each GIRL as her eyes fell upon
the alluring millinery display became hesi-
tant. fastidous, critical. a true woman chos-
ing hat And they took their time abou.

Patiently, as batch after batch OF girls
burst up lUe lils NOIIltn dDONt, dDly
assisted by Mr.. Nichols, tried hat after hat,
sometimes as many as twenty on one bob

Il dunno: doat like dat ONE small
child would say. with her finger in her
mouth.
"Do you see any you like better" one Of
the officiating milliners would ask, and with
much wavering the finger would come out
of the month and point generally at the
hat furthest up on the wall.
II dess I want dat one"
But when with much labor 1t was brought
down she probably saw another one she
liked better.
Gradually, though, most Of them were
suited. and then there were speeches.
Frederick Townsend Martin was there,
and he gathered the children about him and
talked to them.
