their contest which will take place
over the historic Thames river course
March Is. The crews seem to be
about EVENLY balanced, and picking
the winner is more a matter of indi-
yidual preference than judgment. In
the last thirteen races Cambridge has
won seven times. but Oxford has been
the victor in the last four contests.
BY winning this year oxford would
make the races even for fourteen

STYLES IN cHILDREN'S COATS
Severe Simplicity Will Be the Ae-
cepted idea for the Models OF
the Coming Season.

According to the Dry Goods Econo-
mist, simple tailored styles for every
day wear are receiving the most at
tention In children's coats Such gar
ments are shown in serges, Bedford
cords, whipcords, poplins and fancy
mixtures. The collars, cuffs and revers
are usually of silk, ratine or cloth In
some bright color. On the dressier
numbers lingerie collars and cuffs are
employed. In most instances these
are made detachable, so that they can
be easily laundered. Belts are fea-
ture of many of the best selling
models. Frequently the belt is seen
only in the back section. When the
entire belt is used 1t is placed several
inches below the waist line and is
made of satin, silk or velvet. Plain
or crushed broad velvet belts are con-
sidered particularly smart and are
used with excellent effect on bright
colored coats in red, Wilhelmina blue,
tan and rose. Sashes are also being
used in similar manner. These are
frequently in black or of the same
shade as the coat itself

AIM SHOULD BE SIMPLICITY
Best Ideas for Dressing Of Young
Girls Hair Is Here Given
From Authority.

In the Woman's Home Companion
Grace Margaret Gould writes "A Talk
With Girls About Their Clothes" Fol-
lowing Is an extract which presents
Miss Gould's ideas about hairdressing
for young girls:
In arranging your hair, l would
bear first in mind, If were you, not
to hide the shape of your head. You
may admire the way your older SIS
ter or your best friends mother wears
her hair, but don't try to copy it. The
more simply you fix your hair the
more becoming it is sure to be. Part
ing the hair either in the middle OF
at the sides is very pretty if it hap
pens to be becoming to you, but If it
is not, the soft wavy pompadour worn
without a rat is in quite as good style.
The hair which is drawn back from
the forehead in a low pompadour and
continued back over the crown of
the head, where it is then made into a
little coil covered by big bow, Is
very effective, only it must not have
the effect Of all bow and little head.
The bow should be small enough to
show two cunning little curls be-
low It,"

FriIIy Fashions,

Certain details of dress are being
hotly debated at the present time, and
in the end we shall all follow the
whim Of the moment, as We are al
lowed to do in these happy days. Last
spring the new fashion of long sleeves
was much heralded, which for some
queer reason the dressmakers tried to
force us to accept when summer was
coming in.
The fashion, so far as summer was
concerned, was foredoomed to failure.
But when autumn arrived, of course,
the time Of the long sleeve had come.
and down it crept accordingly until
now. when, apart from the prevailing
friIls, the material itself reaches down
half way to the finger tips in the old
familiar Bernhard fashion.

the UNI element lay In the boy

acknowledge him.
The sharp crack OF pistol, the fall
Of a flag, and the whole struggling,
flaming flock sprang forward toward
the first turn, wheel to wheel In
death-edged contest. And Stanton yor-
got his mechanician.
The Mercury led the first circuit, as
usual. 1t was very fast, and its pilot
took the chances more prudent drivers
avoided. Still. the lead was less than
the cars own length, two of Its closest
rivals hanging at it's fianks, when they
passed the tumultuous grand-stand.
Just ahead lay again the death
curve" There was a swift movement
beside Stanton, the pendent linen
streamers floating from his cap were
deftly seized and the dust swept from
his goggles with a practiced rapidity.
Gar on each side an one trying to
pass" the clear voice pierced the
hearing. mo room next the fence"
Stanton grunted. The boy knew

meant to take that fence side.
And he did AS the other drivers

and swept first around the turn, TAX
ing the inside curve. The spectators
rose with a universal cry Of consterna-
ton; the Mercury swerved, almost
facing the infeld fence, skidding ap-
pallingly and lurching drunkenly on
two wheels, then righted itself under
the steering-wheel in the masters
hands, and rushed on, leading by
hundred feet.
The people cheered frantically, the
band crashed into raucous music.
Stanton's mechanician got up to lean
over the back of the flying car and
feel the rear castings.
You're tryin' to tires,' he impaired,
his accents close to the drivers ear,
That was the first time that Stanton
noticed that Floyd lisped and blurred

IDEAS FOR SPRING DRESSES
According to Information, Printed
Silks viii Be Largely Used In
the New Costumes.

Paris dressmakers are using printed
silks of rather florid designs on sUft
silks and crepe de chimes for Innings,
especially where plain materials are in
question. All crepe fabrics also are
in demand for home gowns, and with
these the introduction of printed silks
will take the form of collar facings
and little touches in the Wristbands.
Buttons will also be covered in small
designed printed silk.
Sponge cloths, ratine or velour de
laine. all more or less the same thing,
will still find favor in the early spring,
but serge and suitings in navy blue
promise to be more in vogue than
ever.
III the navy blue suiting the tiny
pin stripe is likely to lead the way,
one or two coats and skirts having
already been seen in this material
The fashion in tailor mades does not
just yet show much change. The
lines are simple in the extreme. The
inverted pleat at front and back, al
lowing of a little more freedom in
movement, but retaining the straight
line, is so far the only innovation.

Has he ever been cruel to your"
"Oh, dear no! Frank is one OF the

"Well, what charge do you wish to
make against him? Have you any let
ters that he ever wrote to another
woman?"
NO He has been perfectly true to
me, as far as I know. Really, can't
think of thing to charge him with;
but surely you can think of some
way. I simply must have a divorce.
Why, I'm engaged to be married to
another man next spring, and it would
be awfully embarrassing if I still had

from the tent to swing into the mar
row seat beside the driver, and Stan
tons car leaped for the paddock exit
with a roar answered by the deafen-
ing roar Of welcome from the specta-
tors.
Seven minutes" snapped the start
er, as the Mercury wheeled In line.
Stanton shrugged his shoulders with
supreme Indifference, perfectly aware
Of his security, since the start had
not been made. But his mechanician
leaned forward with a little gurgle Of
irresistible, sunshot laughter.
Don't worry" he besought. Really.
We'll get in seven minutes ahead"
His mocking young voice carried
above the terrific din Of the eleven
| huge mach mes, and Stanton turned
upon him, amazed and irritated at the
audacity. The starter also stared.
just as a fashlight fared up and
showed fully the young gray eyes
dancing behind the goggles, the red
young mouth smiling below the mask,
the shining young curls which the
cap failed to cover. He stared, then
slowly relaxed into smile. and went
| forward.
''The talking done while I'm up. is
done by me-" stated Stanton forcHbly.
Remember"
Don't you ever need rest?"
queried Floyd.
Stanton opened his lips. and closed
them again without speaking. His
trained glance went to sweep his OPP
ponents. gaging their relative posi-
| tions. their probable order on the first
! turn, and his own best move The
successive flashlights on either side
were binding. the atmosphere was
suffocating with the exhaust gasoleEe
and acetylene fumes. 1t was as fa-
miliar to him as the odor of sawdnst

salt wind to tsbitant Of the coast:
