New York, March Special:
Whether Greece is to throw in her

and the retiring premier, Eleutzerios
yenizelos, n Of the strongest men
In Greece, declared TO be uncom-
prisingly opposed to such q step.
The resignation of the premier and
his cabinet Saturday is reputed to
have been due to the unyielding at
titude OF the monarch. The belief
prevailed that, with the appointment
of a new ministry, the storm clouds
would d~issipate. This feeling was
heightened by reports from Athens
that venizelos has stated in a speech
in the chamber of deputies that he
and his followers would support any
government the king might appoint.
Later information, however,
brought the true utterance Of Ven
izelos to the world.

to support n government which
may be formed" and significance was
added by some of his hearers to his

The high-necked models give oppor-

lines to adapt the collars to either the
long or short neck. In one model,
called the "Brinkley. in honor of the
famous Nell, there is a high collar of
black satin laid in irregular folds and
wired to stay in place. 1t is lengthenei
into points at the front, and these
points extend below the line of tbs
neck. This satin band opens at the
front in a v, in which the points do
not quite meet at the bottom. 1t over

a wrought-iron gate on the left, with
a covered way leading up to the house,
was past and gone in a veritable
twinkling.
Five or six minutes later the smart
young man was driving really slowly
along narrow road between patent
wealth and blatant semi-gentility; on
the left good grounds, shaded by cedar
and chestnut, and on the right row
of hideous little houses, as pretentious
as any that ever let for forty pounds

An exquisite afternoon gown COM
bining crepe, Georgette, taffeta and
chiffon, all in the color known as
wistaria, might be just as pretty de-
veloped in others of the fashionable
colors. But it could not be prettier.
In a season when one is almost be-
wildered by the diversity of style here
is gown to swear by. 1t is excel
lent in lines and composition and it
is adorably refined.
The moderately wide skirt is laid
in plaits about the waist at the sides
and back, with the front left plain.
The plaits are not stitched down, ex-
cept at the waist line, where the skirt
is Joined to plain blouse of chiffon.
A very wide border of taffeta, finished
with a three-inch hem, is set on at the
bottom. Above this, at an interval of
three inches, second band of taffeta
appears. 1t is about four inches wide
and finished with narrow machine
stitched hem at each edge
The sleeves of chiffon are cut full
at the top and narrowed from the
elbow down. They are long and close
lifting about the wrist, terminating in
a small shaped cuff piped at the end
with the taffeta. A narrow taffeta
band combines them at the wrist, and
they wrinkle along the arm in way

Down the River.

At Waterloo the two men parted,
with fair exchange of fitting
speeches, none of which rang really
talse. And yet Cazalet found himself
smphatically unable to make any plans
at all for the next few days; also, he
seemed in two minds now about a
jermyn Street hotel previously men,
toned as his immediate destination;
and his step was indubitably lighter as
ne went OF first of all to the loop-line,
to make sure of some train or other
that he might have to take before the
day was out.
In the event he did not take that
rain or any other; for the new
miracle of the new traffic, the new
smell of the horseless streets, and the
newer joys of the newest of new taxi
cabs, all worked together and so swift
" upon Cazalet's organism that he
had little colloquy with his smart
young driver instead of paying him in
Jermyn Street. He nearly did pay him
off, and with something more than his
usual impetuosity, as either liar or a

He had accompanied his baggage

to tear off his great soft hat. 1t was
actually the first funeral he had seen
since his own fathers; no wonder his
radiance suffered a brief eclipse. But
in another moment he was out on
Barnes Common.
1t had been the bicycle age when he
went away; now it was the motor age,
and the novelty and contrast were
endless to simple mind under the
influence of forgotten yet increasingly
familiar scenes But nothing was lost
