Hits American Water Fronts.

THE development of this water
front is one of the most important
questions relating to the development
of Washington. Throughout America
our water fronts are examples of hid
eousness and frightfulness, instead of
examples of art and beauty, as they
are in every other civilized country.
We have an opportunity here in
Washington to present a model for
this entire country: and the art socie-
ties and the architectural associations
and the federated art associations are
looking to Washington for the models
which they will hold up in their re-
spective communities to be followed
We have already invaded one of
the most important water fronts in
Washington, the water front that
stretches from the bureau of engrav-
ing printing down to the War College,
a distance of mile. In view of the
NANCY. neglected. rotting wharves and
rotting structures along that water
front. it is no wonder that when the
appropriations committee of the House
located that power plant they thought
that any structure would be an orna

WOULD HAVE COUNTRY
PAY COST OF BRIDGE
Senator Newlands Wants Aqueduct
Project Developed Under Fine
Arts Commission.

Senator Newlands of Nevada, during
the debat on the bill for a new bridge
to replace the Aqueduct bridge across
the Potomac river. in the Senate yes
terday urged that the measure be
amended so that the entire cost of the
bridge should fall upon the federal
government and the plans for the
bridge must be approved by the fine
arts commission
He said that the District should not
be forced to pay for any part of this
improvement. but that it should be
considered entirely as national
project
Senator Newlands said in part:
II do not know whether the bridge in
question comes within the exact terms
of the act of Congress creating the
commission of fine arts. or whether it
comes within the exact terms of the
executive order, made by the President
of the United States regarding the sub
mission of plans of public structures
to this commission. I have not that
order before me: and therefore ] think
it wise in this bill to see to it that
these plans. so far as their artistic fea-
lures are concerned, are submitted to
this able and capable commission.

JUNK

The waste in every household is con-
siderable. Part is unavoidable waste;
part is necessary waste. Altogether
too much food goes into the garbage
can. Clothes are not taken care of,
are not pressed or mended, or hung up
when not in use and so become shabby
long before their usefulness is ended.
Shoes that with a little mending
would go many mile are thrown out,
and throughout the house there is
waste. The attic bears testimony to
this fact.
Waste that is waste should not be
boarded, but turned into profit. Old
rubbers, rags, iron, can be turned into
many an honest penny, and clothing
that has served it's day may be sold
to second hand dealers glad to get
such articles.
The conservation of household
waste affords living for thousands
of people. The junk man is usually a
leading citizen, well housed and well
fixed. The privilege of trimming
the scows that take the waste of New
York to sea is worth millions annual
ly. 1t makes millionaires. And the
waste that finds it's way to the gar
bage scow is what breaks some famil-
les.
A certain school teacher has the
right idea. Every spring she asks the
children bring to school the worn
out rubbers of the winter, and from

the proceeds she buys pictures for the
walls and photograph records for the
dances. At times these contributions
amount to over half ton. Waste be-
comes profitable as you get it toge-
Their. And when so gathered it should
be used for good purpose as a
standing object lesson that waste
conserved is profit earned"
Here is junk story from the Far
East: A japanese rag man of excel
lent speech and manner has been max
ing a canvass, offering to buy all the
old junk offered. Instead of paying
cash he gives coupon good at a GER
tain bank, where it must be left I'M
touched for a number of years.
Upon investigation the ragman
turned out to be former superintend-
ent of Yokohama police and manager
of a large dock corporation, interested
III teaching his people the proper use
of junk.
Junk money is apt to be regarded
as "easy money" and spent foolishly.
While it is easy money, it should be
conserved to usefulness and not vast
ed. The school teacher uses one
method, the Japanese junk man the
other, but both tending in the right
direction. We can teach our children
no better lesson than to avoid waste,
but avoiding all possible waste to so
use the junk that it will prove a last
ing benefit. Save your junk and save
the money your junk turns in.

The Return of Ostrich Boas.
The Easter parade, both on the
boardwalk at Atlantic City, and Fifth
Avenue, New York, was marked by
the colored ostrich feather boas which
completed so effectively the dark tail
.ored suits, donned in accordance with
the weather. Marabou is also quite
modish for neck pieces. The revival
of the feather boa will be welcomed
by many, as it lends a soft, becoming
touch to suit or gown, and in its new
shades, welcome bit of contrast.
These boas, as rule, are short, fin
ished at the ends with tassels of chen
lie silk, and close up closely about the
throat.
Maine ruches, and smart little fan
cies of pleated or pinked ribbon, are
also modish for the tailored suit or

are often used effectively for closing
them.

YORK TO THE SAUk GEN.

New York, Nav Is

New York, May ID.
From Fashions New York court
e comes the word that summer furs will
be more modish this year even than
they were last. The huge boa of white
fox held the favored place last sum-
mer, but this season the shops are Of
fering variety of furs for summer
wear. In spite of the apparent alb
surdity, a wide soft stole of mole,
mink, seal, or ermine often proves a
very grateful addition to the sheer
summer dance frock on seaside porch
or board walk. While the round, soft
fox boa will in all probability continue
to be popular with tailored suits and
dresses, the long, wide stole will be
more used for evening. A particular
ly interesting stole of tailless ermine,
shown in one of the large fur shops, is
lined with startling black and white
striped taffeta, while one of moleskin
has vivid orange lining. Here again
is offered an effective way to intro
~duce the bright bit of color so neces-
-sary to the summer costume.
The Popularity of Wolfe
Plain, striped, checked, dotted, and
patterned voiles, in all colors and
combinations, are in demand for the
corded, ruffled, fluffy lingerie frock.
OF course there are voiles and voiles;
the true wolfe wears and washes well,
is sheer and dainty, quite as attractive
as the more expensive cottons. There
is hint here and there of the return
of hand-painted muslins for blouses
and dresses. Probably the stenciled
hat suggested the idea, which is
quaint and pretty, if not exactly prac-
teal. AL sorts of clever notions might
be worked out by the woman with in
genious brain and fingers, but if the
material were to be purchased or or
~dered, the fad might prove rather ex-
pensive. Sashes and scarfs, however,
will carry out the notion with wolfe
and organdy frocks very effectively.
