ing. France, like every other coun-
try, got its dolls from Germany, but
now, France wants to make dolls for
all the little girls in the world.
France is convinced she can make lots
nicer dolls than any other country
and she thinks every little girl in
the world is entitled to just the nice
st kind of a doll it is possible to
make. The new French dolls. in ad-
dition to their dainty heads, are to
have the glossiest of hair, the soft
est of cheeks, the most wonderful
eyes and the most sparkling of teeth
They are nearly all to come from
Limoges, France. Limoges is try
ing to become the doll center of the
world instead of Leipsig, Nuremberg
and Lauscha. Limoges is the center
of one of the finest porcelain and
pottery industries in the world. To
show that she is really in earnest.
Limoges has already begun designing
the new dolls. She has ordered sew
aral of the worlds most famous sculp-
.ors at Paris to design them. Just
now Limoges is trying to solve the
of not only making the most
doll in the world, but also
VI making it cheap enough so every
title girl in the world can afford to
rave one.
She admits this Is difficult, for

The arrest of Koeing and Lyendeck-

berves to emphasize the handicap this
