during the remainder Of the game held
the home crowd at HIS mercy.
Brilliant fielding by his pals helped to
smooth the way for George Dauss In the

cut by folding the material length
wise, and laying the straight edge that
has a single perforation evenly along
this fold These perforations have to
do with the laying out of the pattern.
There are others that indicate con-
structive points in the making, and
these must be transferred to the ma
terial.
The best way of doing this is by talk
ing the stitches, known as tailors'
tacks, through the material at the
points where the perforations appear
on the pattern You cannot do this
while the pattern is in position, so
the places must be marked Most OF
the sections of garment are cut in

ed so that two portions Zone for each
side) are cut at the same time by the
one pattern piece.
To cut them fold the material in
half, with the two cut ends together
and the right side, or face of the
goods, inside. The wrong side will
now be uppermost, and you can make
mark through each of the marking
perforations with lead pencil, tail
ors chalk, or by running pin straight
through the middle of the perforatior
and the two layers of material Wher
you lift the pattern off (and l advise
you not to lift any off until all have

DIRECTIONS TO HELP YOU
IN MAKING YOUR GOWN

The best thing l know for the be-
ginner in dressmaking to undertake is
the one-piece dress-a house dress,
for example, with a skirt and an un-
lined waist, writes Annette Wilson in
the Woman's World A shirt waist
calls for certain traditional details of
finish. A fitted lining, sometimes as
the starting point for the beginner is,
in fact, quite worthy the skill of an ex-
perienced dressmaker. In the house
dress the fundamental principles of
draping and fitting are presented in
their simplest forms.
Select the pattern you prefer, open
it, and identify each piece, and learn
the meaning Of its markings (perfora-
tions and notches) by referring to the
directions printed on the pattern en-
velope. On each piece there are two
large performations that indicate the
way the pattern ito be laid on the
cloth.
A real beginner will find it helpful
to lay ruler or yardstick on line
with these two perforatlons, and, with
soft pencil, draw long line almost
il not quite, the length of the pattern
piece. This may be more readily fol
lowed by the eye, and will make easier
the correct aging out on plain mater
ial.
Take one of the skirt cores, for ex
| ample. You will notice that the front
edge Is not straight, but slopes in
ward little from the bottom toward
the top.
| When you lay this piece of the pat
tern on the cloth, have its front edge
at the bottom of the gore, touchinl
the selvage. Measure in from the sci
wage to the drawn line, then have the
line just the same distance in at the
top OF the gore, and you may be Ger
tain the pattern Is laid on correctl!

A toll free Panama canal for Ameri-
can coastwse vessels, as provided by
the law of 1912. Is not favored by
Representative William c. Adamson OF
Georgia, chairman of the house inter
state and foreign commerce committee.
He has proposed in resolution to con
gress suspension of the existing law
for free tolls to American ships for
two years that the cost of operation of
the Panama canal may be ascertained.
During these two years American
ships. coastwise and ocean frelghters,
would pay the same tolls as all for
eign ships
The president is given authority to
pass on the relative cost of using the
Panama canal and its maintenance
and at the end of two years may de-
eide whether the tolls thus collected
will be more than sufficient for main
tenance Of cost or operation of the
canal. In this event the president Is
to enforce the law for free canal tolls
for American ships.
Explaining his resolution, Mr.. Adam
son said:
"If 1t is demonstrated that the tolls
are sufficient to spare the tolls to the
.coastwise trade the state department
will be allowed time to adjust ques-
tons growing out Of the treaty stip
ulations. and IL the advocates OF ex
emption are found to have been cor
rect in their contention as to suf
ficiency of revenue and the diplomatic
questions are settled in their favor al
executive order will then put the ex
emption into force"
Since he was elected to congress:
from Georgia eighteen years ago, VIII
liam Charles Adamson has devoted hi:
entire time to official duties Before
that time he was q lawyer and earnet
his schooling money on the farm ant
by driving n cotton wagon. He was
born at Carrollton, Ca, and educated
at Bowdon college, Bowdon, Ga.
