FASHIONS

| The adorable little party dress for a
four to six year old shown in the
sketch is rather a tailored affair, al
though dainty as it can be. The mate
| rial employed is georgette or a very
soft taffeta, and the garment is braided
with very fine soutache braid In white
or self color. Gold-colored braid might
also be employed effectively on dress
for a tiny tot.
This dress is an example of the
spring leaning to short-waisted effects
for children. For several seasons the
long-waisted models have claimed the
attention of designers of children's ap-
parel to the exclusion practically Of
all other types. The normal or high
waist is given preference generally
this season. although some Russian
blouse frocks continue to be featured
in sturdy fabrics, and the absence OF
any waist line placing is evidenced by
MILDLY and smock frockS.
of six years, one and three-quarter
yards of material, thirty-six inches
wide will be required.
Small motifs of ribbon flowers are
caught at intervals about the little
skirt. a similar cluster decorating one
shoulder of the gown. The short fiared
sleeves are very dainty and becoming
to a juvenile figure. The back of the
dress is exactly like the front, and it
may be open in the back Or developed
as slip-over model, according to pref
erence.

preston in SO many words, but his eyes
| probably CLEAN with delight when he
| sees coming his way a garment which
! has on it these splashing little designs,
which he can amuse himself counting
| in his weary moments.
| No matter how young he is, If the
| garment is trimmed with anything that
suggests girlishness, he resigns it at
once. The small boy who said. when
asked what fathers were for, that they
! were to keep mothers from making
| little girls of little boys, voiced the
! fundamental belief of the young mas
culine.
! The sketch shows a peasant smock
| of white linen which has been design
| ed in high places for small boys. 1t is
worn over the very abbreviated panta-
looms which the youngster of the day
knows are quite correct. The white
| linen is dashed all over with polka dots
| of bright blue, the turnover collar is
edged with blue, and there is an irreg-
ular band running down the front of
white linen crossed with blue braid
And the small boy has button on this
smock to make him feel that things
have advanced quite good deal in the
last six months of his life. The tie of
black satin is another touch to give
him joy.

So Reddy turned and began to fol-
low the tracks in the snow. He had
gone only a few steps when it struck
him that those tracks seemed odd He
stopped to look at them closely. They
were-yes, they We're smaller and
daintier than the tracks of Old Granny
Fox. Reddy bent his head and shifted
at the tracks. The hair on the back OF
his neck and shoulders lifted ever so
little. a way it has of doing when
Reddy begins to grow angry. Then he
lifted his head and stared suspiciously
this way and that way.
There has been a strange fox here in
the Old Pasture" growled Reddy deer
in his throat. The Old Pasture is the
hunting ground of Granny and me, an6
no other fox has any business here.

A Temperance Plan.
To the Editor of The Star:


Here is a solution of the liquor ques-
ton that is not "bone-dry' nor injuri-
ously wet" Let the government es-
tablish saloons or dispensaries for sale
Of liquors only to those who have IL
censes to drink and in quantity limited
by coupons for each day; no liquor to
be given away, except to some other Ii
+censee who has not already had his
daily quota, as indicated by coupons
punched. Allow licenses only to those
not already internally and materially
injured by alcohol Require photo, sig
nature and description to identify pur-
chaser. OF course, a periodical medical
examination of licensees would be
necessary, all such expenses to be paid
by applicants.
A "bone-dry" law can be enforced
only where tWo-thirds of the people IA
vor it. That is probably not the case
in the District of Columbia.
If there is to be a referendum, let all
actual residents (men and women)

Reddy Fox Finds a Strange
Track.

| Reddy Fox was in the Old Pasture
Every so often Reddy visits the Old
Pasture with the very lively hope that
| he will be able to surprise Old Jed
| Thumper. the big gray rabbit, who is,
| you remember, the father of little Mrs.
| Peter Rabbit, and who has lived in q
| bull-brier castle in the Old Pasture
every since Reddy can remember. Once
| or twice Reddy has surprised Old Jed
. Thumper, but never quite far enough
away from his bull-brier castle to
catch him, before he could reach it.
When Reddy was a little fellow get
ting his first lessons in the art of hunt
ing, old Granny Fox had taken him TO
the Old Pasture day after day Just TO
hunt Old Jed Thumper. You see Granny
knew that Old Jed was extremely wise
in all that a Rabbit should know, and
quite as wise in the ways of a Fox. She
didn't have the. least idea that Reddy
would be able to catch Old Jed
Thumper. for with all her shrewdness
and cunning she herself had never been
able to catch him, but she knew that
in trying to catch such clever old
fellow Reddy would learn more quickly
than in any other way the tricks and
ways of a smart rabbit. and this
knowledge would be of use to him in
hunting other rabbits.
When Reddy had grown big enough
and old enough to go hunting alone he
often visited the Old Pasture just to
try out his wits and skill against the
shrewdness of Old Jed Thumper. After
a while ii had become kind of game
which Reddy enjoyed aSpd which I dare
say Old Jed enjoyed too. Right down in
his heart Reddy hoped to win that
game some day. 1t was not SO much
that he wanted Old Jed Thumper for a
dinner as it was that he wanted to lay
Old Jed at the feet of Granny Fox and
thus prove to her that he had been
smart enough to do what Granny never
had been able to do. But so far Reddy
&. hair from Old Jed Jumpers pro-
voking white tail
On this particular day, for all his care
and craft and cunning, Reddy had had
no better luck than usual. which luck
was to see that provoking white tail
castle just one good jump ahead of
him. Reddy had become so used to this
that he was not really disappointed. 1t
was no more than he had expected. So
he grinned in through the bull briers
at Old Jed Thumper and told him that
the next time he would catch him, just
as he had done dozens of times before,
and Old Jed Thumper grinned back,
Just as he had done dozens of times be-
fore. and said:
Nice weather, isn't it. Reddy? I'm
glad you called. Come again"
Then Reddy had trotted away to an
other part of the Old Pasture. He
hadn't much of anything on his mind
at the time and was trotting along
easily, ears. eyes and nose all busy as
track in the snow. A mere glance
showed him that it was fox track.
"Hello." exclaimed Reddy. 81 thought
