To take a look at James Johnston,
the dignifed manager Of boxing bouts
at Madison Square garden, one would
not suspect that James was once about
the toughest Of a tough gang Of kids
who haunted 31st street a few years
back.
But James Johnston, who Is now
about the best known fight promoter
in the country, Is the same Jimmy
Johnston, who was born in Liverpool,
England, and came to this country at
the age Of Is. Jimmy had no money,
but he did have ambition. 1t led him
into a branch office of the A. D. T.
company, where he got a job as a mes
senger boy. The blue uniform and the
brass buttons were too much for Jimmy
he lasted just one day as messenger
He was always keen on fighting and
used to slip into Madison Square gar.
den and other places where bouts wer,
being staged. Finally he entered some
amateur tournaments, Jared rather bad
| ", but pluebly kept on. He finally
turned professional and at one time
boxed Danny Dougherty for the ban
tsmweight championship and lost. Afte1
/ that bout he decided that he was not
/ cut out for a boxer, but he liked tn,
/ game and stuck to it as a manager. A
one time he had IS boxers in his charge

typed materials in each and every
case.
For this reason we welcome all such
new weaves as satin d'amour, Geor.
gette crepe, libellule taffetas, peau de
chat, wool crepon, faille, and many
others. With these and many new
colors on the list one should be salts

Cream.colored Georgette crepe is
combined with chiffon taffeta in the
dainty evening frock design here
shown. A plain underslip OF cream
chiffon taffeta, with a ten-inch plated
foot flounce makes the dress founda-
ton, over which short.waisted cor
sage and a long, full tunic of Geor-
gette crepe is arranged.
The corsage runs to v in front and
back, with the edges defined by orchid
colored velvet ribbon about an inch
and half in width. A pink rose is
caught against one shoulder, the very
short kimono sleeves are held around
the arm with velvet ribbon, and the
decolletage is filled in front and back
with a fold Of the underslip material,
outlined across the top with pearl
beads.
The tunic is mounted with full, even
gathering at decidedly high waist
line, beneath an encircling hand of the
orchid velvet ribbon, tied in bow at
center front. Another such band holds
the tunic in against the figure couple
Of inches above the hip line, and the
material between is allowed to pouch
a tiny bit. Three evenly spaced rib
bon velvet landings encircle the bot.
tom width of the tunic, each finishing
in front with bow. A rose design
delicately traced in silver thread ap.
pears in the spaces between the bands
of velvet and are also seen running
through the center of either side of
the waist.

to an already gathered yoke, with a
serpentine double row of shirring be-
tween, while the lower edge is cut in
serpentine scallops and bound with
self-cording, which very slightly holds
in the material.

sleeves gathered into wristband

period. Distinct sleeves from the dress
have no following, though the plain.
colored tunics are worn over checked
skirts. In everything there is a touch
OF the oriental, especially as regards
the size of the waist.
