It must not be supposed, however
that little girls will have to go with

facturers in the United States are
turning out dolls by the thousands
and they are of the very best type.
One large factory in. Philadelphia is
making. under special processes. a
type of indestructible doll from bass
wood, which is a light and easily
worked material and is not likely to
split or break. Those who have made
study of this manufacture, in con.
nection with the study of the wood-us-
ing industries of the state of Pennsyl'
vania, predict that dolls of the type
made by this and other similar fac
tories can gain first place for America
in this branch of manufacture. THUS
the new trade slogan, Made in the

in shifting the center of doll manufac'
