Latest American Fashions
BY CORA MOORE.

The small child always looks well in
white linen. especially when combined
with hand embroidery, as in the little
| frock in the accompanying cut. Colored
wool and heavy floss embroideries are
very popular methods of trimming the
little dresses, and are worked out in
bold relief and bright colors. A rather
heavy though loosely woven quality of
linen is most desirable, and 1t can be
found in pure or cream white and all
colors
In this design there is a long waist
cut with full-length kimono sleeves. The
round neck is cut rather low In front
and finished with scalloped rundown
collar of self-material. heavily button
holed and embroidered in delft blue
floss. The turned-back cuffs match, and
are attached to narrow wristbands I'M
lderneath, into which the sleeves are gath
cred.
The novel feature of the little dress
is the odd and attractive arrangement
of the belt, which consists of two four
inch embroidered bands of linen stitched
across either side, leaving quite wide
space in front and back. AS the dress
is made rather straight and scant, there
is not much fullness to take in under
the belt and the lower edge is finished
with a three-inch hem.
Another pleasing version Of the same
ral-colored Russian crash, with en-
broidery done in reds and blues, or in
brown. The dress fastens in back at
one side, in a direct line with one end
of the belt, and should have buttons on
a blind flap under the edge.

A jet girdle made of large fiat jet
beads three-quarters OF an inch across
fastened to a black net foundation is a
striking feature Of an all-white evening
dress. The contrast between the heavy
beads and the light. clinging dress ma
terial is striking. The gfrdle is about
three inches wide.

America and Japan at Dinner.

America and Japan will meet at Pitts
huygh Friday evening under pleasant and
assuring circumstances. The fellow citi-
zenS of George ". Guthrie. the newly APP
pointed ambassador TO Japan, will enter
tain him at dinner. and Niscount Chinda.
the ambassador from Japan. will be
guest 1t is unnecessary 10 say most
welcome guest.
Mr. Guthrie is both politician and
business man, and the President is to be
congratulated on selecting him for post
where the Importance of having such
man in office as the representative of this
country is growing In fact, our repre-
sentatives diplomatic and consular,
throughout The far east should be of the
Guthrie stamp familiar with our bust
ness affairs. and able to appraise business
affairs and business opportunities in that
quarter.
For in that quarter we are making pay
for business We are i'm the markets
there both 10 sell and to buy. and must
do business in the latest form and against
the keenesi competition. Business is bust
ness. and unless we get our official tips
from sources competent TO give them We
shall fall behind in the race.
OF course there is more than business
in the American eastern program. Mat
tiers of church as we'll as of state are in
cluded. Religious work on an increasing
scale is in contemplation. and means are
being collected TO push it.
On this latter point there is something
of interest now in the presence III Wash
ington of Bishop Brent of the Episcopal
Church. whose field of labor is in the
Philippines and who has distinguished
himself in it, He has been studying and
improving the field from the religious
point of view and addressing himself
solely 10 the labors of churchman, and
with extra ordinary success. He might
have had one of the most attractive
charges of his church in this countryside

of a soldier, chose To retain the harder
charge to which he had been assigned.
If We continue TO keep our church mat
tiers and our state matters separate in the
far east-the missionary quarter-as We
do here at home. shall prosper The
Guthries for the affairs of this World-for
trade and a good general understanding
and the Brents for the affairs of the next
world-for the affairs OF the spirit. To
put the Brents in the places of the Guth
ries would be as unwise as TO put the
Guthries in the PAGES of the Brents.
Mr.. Guthrie will not start for his post
until next month. but will reach it, we
may all hope. with TIE friendship between
America and Japan. for all the recent
racket still unbroken. and still worthy of
the most sincere preservation.

Americans and Education.
rom the Chicago Journal.

From the Chicago Journal.
OF the eighty-fiye foreigners now in
Rome studying the Montessori system of
primary schools, sixty are Americans. This
is typical example of American devotion
TO education and American readiness to
examine new ideas. Other peoples sup
port schools because they know by expert
ence that schools are good for the coun-
try Americans support schools because
they want to-and sometimes bit
careless about insisting on a proper re-
turn for their money. Other peoples hest
tate to go abroad for pointers on school
matters The American is glad to grasp a
new idea wherever found. If the Mon
tessori system is as good as its devotees
claim. the prediction is safe that the
United States will soon have more schools
founded on that plan than the country
in which the idea was developed.

The Revival of Racing.
, the New York Times

From the New York Times
Horse racing was revived in New York
yesterday. when Belmont Park was
throneed. and the gayety of the assem-
blage was dimmed by no shadow of the
gloom that fell on the nearby tracks three
years ago. The Metropolitan handicap
was run again. and the spectacle was as
exhilarating as of old-or nearly so.
Horse racing is good and honora bic sport,
no shame should be attached to the breed
ing and training of thoroughbreds. and
the new and earnest attempt TO renew
racing without any of the associations
which formerly brought it into disgrace
deserves encouragement and watching.
The object of the Agnew-Hart bill was
not TO suppress racing, bat to abolish the
system of race-track gambling which had
brought shame and run to many homes,
had started thousands of ignorant and
weak Young men on the path TO perdi-
ton, and sullied the fair fame Of the
sport.
