Little Richard Rules Nursery
of Children s Society, Gives
His Orders as to Toys and
Games to Bigger Lads
and Is Joy to All.

From starving waif of the streets to
the eminence Of well nourished leader
in the kindergarten at the Children's
Society is the change In station and
fortune that has come to ve-year-old
Richard Haeffncr. With his two-year.
old brother Jimmie, he was abandoned
several weeks ago by his parents
George and Jeanette Haeffner, who
for doing it were both sent to jail for
terms of two to six years.
Five years of age Is young for lead
ership. but Richard was welding il
yesterday with all the prerogatiyes
that the domain of the kindergarten
room afforded. IL consisted chiefly in
bossing the other score of "kiddies"
there as to what toys they should have
and what games they should play.
Miss Norris, who was in charge
watched him walk up to a boy larger
and older than himself and ccmman-
deer toy stove to which he had taken
a fancy.
"Give me that" was the brevity OF
style in which his authority was as
serted. The other boy gave it to him.
"He will be a fine, manly little chap

ing up" Miss Norris said. HE shows
the neglect he has suffered, but he is
improving wonderfully"

BY c. INMAN BARNARD,
Paris Correspondent of The Tribune.

Paris. Feb, 13-The Unborn artistic
instincts Of Paris, purified and intensi-
fed by the trials of the war; have de-
veloped a complete revolution, not only
in Partisan fashions but in printing,
sculpture. household decoration, drama,
music and literature. During the last
few DAYS your correspondent has talked
with half a dozen Of the leading IA
risian dressmakers, house decorators,
furniture makers, prominent portrait
painters, including Leon Bonnat, Fran,
co.'s Flameng, Baschet, dc Thomas, ana
such dramatic critics as Henry Bidou,
Camille lie Senne and Jules Bots.
First Of all, in regard TO the coming
spring fashions, one must eface from
his mind all previous conceptions ana
also note that the so-called military
fashions do not exist, except Tor wom-
ems overcoats, and now and then
Belgian or French forage cap, tipped
with a gilt tassel. The great feature IS
the adoption Of new waist line, when
is now placed exactly under the thlrd
rib. Skirts, whether for day OF evening
wear. are very short, never reaching
lower than six or eight inches from tne
ground and being wider at the hem

past.
:. Dav gowns are Of the three-piece
tyne, with a profusion Of rich en-
broidery. The materials are almost en-
trrely silks, sstins and taffetas, because
the export Of woollens is prohibited,
they being reserved entirely for mill
tary requirements. Petticoats seem TO
be gone forever, the chief underwear
being close fitting, boyish garments OF
silk, satin or taffeta, reaching 10 below
the knees, and tight fitting, well drawn
stockings.
The shortness Of the skirts requires
nicely made, smart boots or shoes.
Thus, prettily turned ankles are now at
a premium, being constantly visible.
The effects Of evening decollete are
now to be attained by diaphanous SILK
network or lace and sometimes trans
parent gauze. The prevailing color
tones are sombre, mostly black ana
whites and often in sharp contrast
Such, in the main lines, are the farls
ian fashions, according to the ukaSe OF
the leading couturiers, which VIII be
presented next week to the representa-
tives here Of United States, British,
Russian. Spanish, Italian and Argen-
tine dressmaking houses, who are now
gathering in Paris TO inspect and carry
home with them inspirations from the
Rue de la Paix and the Place Vendome.
Coming styles for household decoraa-
tions show revolution even more
thorough than that in dress. To-day
half a dozen of the illustrated news
papers come out with cartoons lnau-
gurating q militant campaign against
all impressionist, futurist, neo-Ieu-
tonic tastes. Several fascinating Pa
