Strinuino Necklaces.

There is quite a cult for exercising
self-ingenuity In the stringing of bead
necklaces now, and girls who can in
duce their relatives to give them the
old clear amber ones are finding them
to their liking as a change from the
clouded kind generally seen. They
exc out limited quantity of the
beads by threading and knotting them
upon colored string, and produce a
barbaric appearance by mingling yell
low. green and scarlet, the first the
color of the large beads, the second
of the string and the third OF the
small beads.
Yellow and scarlet look exceedingly
well, and that combination of color is
newer than the amber and amethyst
chains already much admired

THE story of children's hats used to
! be a brief one until specialists
turned their attention to this particu-
Lar kind of millinery. Now it is long
and fascinating and much more worth
while than ever before.
Looking to the ideas designed for
grown-ups for inspiration, and trans
1ating them into forms suited to little
wearers, has given us the greatest
variety of adorable bonnets and hats
ever made ready for spring. BY spe-
cializing. designers have broadened
the field and are demonstrating that
It Yves heretofore neglected. They
have created discrimination and dis
cernment by placing before mothers a
really wonderful array of juvenile
hats.
From the little lady of three years,
who looks like an angel in everything
put on her, to "the awkward age.
when the girl is harder to suit than
sho ever was or ever will be again,
the designers Of this millinery have
considered the needs Of children. This
gives the little ones a chance to ex-
ercise their tastes and preferences,
and It is amusing and surprising to
md that they have very decided opin-
ions as to what they like or don't
like.
For little girl of six two models
are shown in the picture. The bon
net might be worn by younger child
and the sailor hat by an older one.
The bonnet is of pink chiffon taffeta
faced with shirred chiffon and having
0nA lace over the upper brim The

crown is a small puff Of taffeta. The
shape suggests the always fashionable
poke bonnet, but the brim is wider as
the crown is smaller than the usual
poke.
There is sash Of wide, soft mes
saline ribbon about the crown. fin
ished with a rosette and knotted ends
at the left side. At the right there
is small bouquet Of little field
flowers.
The little sailor shape is made of
hemp in all the bright colors and
faced with a partial facing of black
velvet. The crown is plateau, plat
ed into the brim. 1t is trimmed with
collar Of velvet ribbon with short
hanging loops and ends at the back
At first glance it seems almost re-
plea of sailors made for grown-ups.
But there are little differences. The
colors used in it are brighter, there
Is a different balance between the
brim and crown, and the management
Of the trimming is distinctly childish.
Besides the usual abundant use Of
ribbon many flowers are featured in
children's millinery. Velvet ribbons
on misses hats take the place of the
messalines used for little children.
Braids are like those used in shapes
for grown people, with the plaid pat
terms used oftener Laces and chiffon
are in greater demand, with ribbons
and then more ribbons. The plain,
lightweight weaves in light tones and
high luster hold first place as trim
ming for children's hats.

At the New National Theater next
week David Belasco will present Frances
Starr, in Henri Bernstein's drama, THE
Secret" In this play. which Is said to
be the most important dramatic output
of the Bernstein mind. Miss Starr por-
trays the role OF Gabrielle Janneiot, a
Girl brought ND in the highly sophisti-
Gated society Of the fashionable French
city. Deauville. whose mind is poisoned
by an all-consuming Jealousy.
In Paris, where The Secret enjoyed
great vogue, Nine. Rejans enacted the
stellar role. but David Belasco's selec-
ton of Miss Starr for the difficult part
over here was fitting tribute to the
ability and charm Of this actress.
