However that may be. the general
impression which the new parasols give
10 satisfactory.
Many of them are made Of taffeta,
naturally. for the popularity OF this
fabric extends to every article of adorn-
ment and use. Some Of the taffeta para
soils are lined with shirred and puffed
chiffon. usually in a contrasting shade.
and this soft lining robs the silk Of all
its hardness. Taheta as a background
for the head sometimes looks little
harsh.
Artificial flowers are used to trim the

parasol is finished with a three-inch
hem. bordered on the inside with q
strand Of tiny chiffon rosebuds. Some
times 4 bunch Of flowers Is fastened In

Lingerie parasols are made in wonder

carried recently by a woman who likes

Of . heavy white linen. scalloped about
the edge and banded just above the seal

The Cape and the Coat.

The Cape and the Coat.
Not for a long time has any fashion
won recognition as quickly a has that
OF the cape.
There may be objection to this state
ment. The cape was really introduced
to fashionable woman's consideration
last August And It did not become usual
until the late spring But although the
cape was seen at the French watering
places late last summer It was hardly
available to the majority Of womankind
until the French openings had been held
this spring. That was lessS than three
months ago. At that time It is safe
to say that nine times out OF ten you
could mingie with q group Of fashionable
women-in the restaurant Of a smart
hotel in one of the parks or avenues
at an hour when fashionable women
throng them. or in any other place where
women dressed fashionably for the street
mingie-without seeing q single cape.
To be sure. few fashionable women
took up the cape for motoring and driv-
ing last winter. But they were few IN
deed.
Now the cape is everywhere about us.
Women wear 1t, in serge and gabardine
and Duvetyn. for shopping and motoring
and driving and walking. In satin and
silk 1t serves for afternoon and evening
wear.
Sometimes the cape is part Of the

sometiEsA OF two. The cape part can
be made of white satin, with a black

be made Of black satin, lined with Roman
stripes. with the Jacket part Of black.
Or the cape can be made Of striped

RAGTIME GOOD FOR CHILDREN
Expert at Music Supervisors confen
ence Defends Popular Songs-Says
They Are Beneficial.

Minneapolis, Minn.-Ragtime Music
and the singing Of popular songs OF
the day does not injure the musical
mind of the public school child, but
rather encourages individual musical
ability, says Ralph L. Baldwin, must
cal supervisor of the public schools at
Hartford, Conn, who is in Minneapolis
attending the seventh annual meeting
OF the National Conference of Music
Supervisors.
II have learned" said Mr. Baldwin,
'that ragtime music or the singing OF
popular songs does not injure the
child unsteady; that is, if not carried
to an extreme. Ragtime music is moth.
ing more nor less than a foot ticker
for all of us, and it is good change
to fall back upon after pursuing music
for some time. You know we have
to have a change in music once in a
while, just as we have to have a va
cation or rest from our work, and this
lighter vein of music is what brings
about that change. 1t would not be
good enough, though, for the public
school pupil to just follow the popular
songs of the day and do nothing else
for it leads to nothing"

Of blame for the theft Of two-year-old

Young Michaefs parents were work
Ing in the field and left him ON the
porch of their farmhouse. When they
got home at noon the child and the
family Newfoundland dog were gone.
Searchers hunted all night, some OF
them even visiting the eyries of
eagles on the mountain, suspectins
that one of the birds might have
stolen the baby.
"A party from Danvilie came on the
child. The Newfoundland dog was
standing by and would let no one ap-
proach. Mr.. and Mrs. Dunal had to be
called before the dog would give up its
threatening defense Of the baby. It Is

DEMAND IS FOR ABLE MAN
High Positions Waiting for Those
Who Are Competent Properly
to Fill Them.

We know a big firm in one of the
Oldest and most important industries
in this country which has been hunt
ing for over yeyar for man to
whom to pay $4,000, and they cannot
find him, writes the editor of the
American Machinist.
We know an executive who wants
two or three men as assistants; if he
could find them in his plant he would
gladly pay them $40 a week. He has
tried considerable number in these
positions during the past year, but
without success as yet. He feels that
he is positively hampered by the lack
Of them.
We know that there is an active de-
mand Tor $4,000 men, and we can
readily believe that there is a keen
demand for $4,000 men.
1t is remarkable that in plant en-
ploying, say thousand men, there are
so few who raise themselves above
their fellows far enough to be con-
spicuous to the management And
even, of those few, not all have the
initiative, the ginger, and faculty OF
being thorough that would make them
of value as assistants to the execu-
tive. What a god-send to the engineer
is the draughtsman who can do his
own thinking, and dig out the solution
Of a problem somehow without con-
slant prodding and pointing from the
boss!
