Waistlike Bib

The sweetest pattern for baby bib
looks not unlike a little waist, excepting
that 1t does not have sleeves.
The neck, armhole and bottom Of these
blbs are generally scalloped with n bit
of hand embroidery on the front.
Linen or white pique makes excellent
bibs, while handkerchief linen can bo
fashioned into an exquisite one, though
less practical for daily use.
II the scallops seem too much of a
task, blbs of pique or heavy linen could
be bound around the raw edges with
pink, blue or white tape, with a bit of
embroidery to match the tape in color
These bibs are really very serviceable
as they cover the entire upper half of
the dress. and being slipped over the
arms and buttoned up the back, they
cannot pull out OF place.

knitting, Get nalf yard of satin rib

For the Sewing Basket

Among the many useful accessories for
the sewing baskets are scissors, fitted in
leather cases. these may be bought singly
or in sets of two, three. four or FIVE. A
set of tape needles is a help, a case of
needles is necessity. One may find all
sorts of novelties. There are the barrel
shaped cases, fitted with several compart-
ments for the needles of different sizes
then there are the cases like pocket
books. supplied with needles for fancy as
we'll as plain sewing There are cases for
the thimble and others for thread. In
tape measures there are endless novelties,
and the same is true of emery and wax.

the taffetas underskirt-just novel plcot
edging The overdrapery is made Of
net with three rows of soft tucking as
the only trimming. The drapery is not
unlike the fashionable polonaise style,
caught up at one side and reaching as
far as the bottom of the skirt on the
other.
Nothing could be simpler than this
little frock designed for the very young
miss or the debutante. The colorings
are youthful in the extreme. and for the
INFORMAL dance nothing could be more
appropriate.

Several Embroidery Hints

When doing embroidery. If you try
waxing your thread with a piece of
white toilet soap 1t will be found that
thread will not wear out while working
and that 1t will wash much more easily.
To remove the black lines. try soaking
the piece of embroidery In buttermilk
and Kerosene one night, next morning
wash and rinse.
To help keep embroidery clean roll
up tho end of the cloth on which YOU
are not working and fasten into a thin
cloth. In this 1t is kept much cleaner,
and the work is much easier 10 handle,

prize Of 81 has been awarded TO Mrs. r.
d. Diehl, 1iS North Cambridge avenue
Ventnor, N. j., for the following suggestion;
A very attractive sewing stand may be
made from an old camp stool. Enamel
the framework, or stain to match your
furniture, after the canvas seat has been
removed In place of the latter, take a
square of cretonne one and one-half the
length by one and one-half the width of
the stool. Gather this with an inch head
Ing all around and tack 1t to the camp
stool. Two pockets may be placed on
either side, and handles of cretonns
tackled to the sides II desired. These are
most convenient to carry It by when the
stand is folded UP.

RED CROSS HAMPERED
IN MEXICAN WORK
Organizations Can Not Bring
Relief Until Conditions
Change.

WASHINGTON, July 3,-Until a radical
change has been effected in conditions In
Mexico. the Red Cross will not attempt
TO expand and may not continue the
famine relief work Initiated there fol-
lowing President Wilson's appeal TO the
country a month ago
The Red Cross authorities have found
that under the conditions under which
they have attempted to relieve suffer-
ing in Mexico. the work cannot be con-
Quoted consistently with the fundamental
principles Of the Red Cross organization.
To send food into Mexico under existing
circumstances is likened to pouring water
through a sieve, in that II brings no re-
suits.
The feeling on the part OF the Red
Cross, as communicated to the State De-
partment recently, is that what is now
being done falls to give promise OF lead
ing to anything definite or achieving any
tangible results for the benefit OF Mexico.
The essence OF Red Cross work, II was
pointed out, Is rehabilitation. relief cal
cuiated not only TO remove acute distress
in an emergency, but also 70 enable suf-
ferers 70 re establish themselves in posi-
tons OF self dependence. The existing
situation In Mexico renders such work

At CURTIS BAY
Il. lR. Carlton, Representative Of
Standard Steel Car Co. Makes
Announcement.
NOT TO MAKE RAILS.
Many Men Employed for the Work at
Curtis Bay.

Announcement was made yesterday
by Howard r. Carlton, local represent
ative OF the Standard Steel Car Com
pany. of Pittsburgh, which owns the
Baltimore Car and Foundry Company.
to the effect that his company had de-
cided to manufacture all-steel cars at
its plant at Curtis Bay, in the upper
part of Anne Arundel county.
This move or the part of the Stand
ard Company will prove far-reaching
as II will be the first time i'm the his
tory of this section of Maryland that
all-steel equipment has been manufae-
tured. Mr.. Carlton also stated that
the company had already prepared
plans for an additional plant at Curtis
Bay, which will enable his company to
make the all-steel cars, and that con-
structior work had actually been start
ed on the improvements He expected
it to be finished and in operation some
time nj January.
with our new plant. said Mr. Carl
ton, we viii be IN a position TO turn
out all-steel equipment here. II is not
our purpose to manufacture anv steel
rails, as has been stated We are not
going to build any rail mill, but have
arranged to erect a steel plant which
win place us in n position to turn out
tho all-steel car 1t our plant at Curtis
Bav"
The Standard Steel Car Company is
one of the largest enterprises of its
kind in the United States and turns
out great quantities OF all kinds of
railroad equipment from its various
plants each year. The Curtis Bay
plant employs large number OF men,
and when the new addition is COM
pleted the present force there will be
greatly increased
Many of the car plants have large
orders for equipment on hand. Owing
to the revival in business, some of the
carriers have found that they have not
enough cars TO handle the traffic offer
ed them and are getting i'm the market
for new equipment
