Queen Mary's Knitting Sets the
Fashion for London.
MEN TAKE UP EMBROIDERY
Make Their Own WaistCoats
and Women Will Embellish
Summer Dresses.
IBy cablc 70 Tnc TrIbunc !

London. March 22-In the leisure
hours caused 10y the postponement OF
social functions many prominent so
cicty women will doubtless indulge in
the new craze for needlowork. The
fashion was set by Queen Mary, who
is frequently seen knitting when taking
private morning drives. Following the
royal fashion many society women
have gone back to tho art OF en-
broidcry FOR recreation. Groups Of busy
workers plying the needle In most in
tricate embroidery designs are not un-
common during country house visits.
The latest development among society
women Of the embroidery art. according
TO tic secretary Of the Royal School OF
Art Needework, which is conducted
by Princess Christian is TO have sum
mer dresses embroidered by their own
hands. Moreover, men. too, are taking
to needlework, their sphere being
making their own waistcoats. The 1913
man, to be up to date. must have Il
canvas waistcoat embroidered by him
self in cross stitch style. Those not al
ready initiated in the art Of the needle
are being instructed at needlework
parties in society drawing rooms.
Many well known society women are
having their old -fashioned chairs and
quantity shaped lounges Of bygone days
recovered in the original style with
tapestries and Florcntine ombroideries
worked by their own hands. The
needleWork craze is having such hold
on society at the moment that spe-
ciaI series Of at homes has been ar
ranged to take place in April at the
famous galleries of the Royal School
of Art Needlework. where the Queen
and the Princess Mary spent several
hours last week inspecting the work
exhibited. In May there is 10 be sum

panied by. among others, the Duchess

MAY TAX PERAMBULATORS
Fee Urged to Break Up London
Nurses Company Front"

From The Tribune's Correspondent
London. March l5.-In certain parts of
London obstruction on the footpaths by
nurses wheeling small children in per-
ambulators is "A cause of frequent COM
plant. and recently the example OF Brest
has furnished the idea that perambulator
traffic might be controlled by n system of
licensing which will permit license
being revoked in the case of those who
obstruct the footpaths
In Brest the new Socialist Council inn
posed tax of cents day on perambu-
lators. This resulted i'm a strike of moth
ers and nurses. who forced the modifca-
ton of the ordinance.
Nothing quite SO drastic is proposed
here but a small annual license fee for
the privilege OF running a perambulator
around the streets is being considered. for
the sole purpose of obtaining some CON
troll over nurses who have the habit Of
marching company front"
