LONDON, Nov. 2O.-Princess Mary
put the final stamp of approval on Os-
trich feathers as far as London is con-
cerned this fall. 1t is not the Queens
habit to concern herself the very least
with dress, and up to now Princess
Mary has worn what was given her to
wear, or at least it looked as if she
did, and very girlish and fresh she
always was. But this winter she has
struck out on her own and one of the
things she seems to like particularly
is ostrich feathers. All the smartest
shops are showing hats of the sim
plest possible lines trimmed with
bands of ostrich feather fronds or hav-
ing crowns exquisitely worked with
fronds in rich Persian colors picked
out with gold thread, or soft pompoms
of ostrich which look like ragged
F., chrysanthemums.
1t surely will be the height of alb
surdity if the fashion for trailing
skirts really succeeds in making a

every bit of their attention for other
things than Juggling around pounds of
/ dress goods full of street dust, it is
now. But all the same walking down
Piccadilly this morning | saw a dozen
women with dresses and suits on that
all-but touched the ground. The
suits l must confess looked very trim
and well proportional and l could not
/ help seeing how much more satisfying
they must be to their designers than
the chopped off ones -Se have been
wearing; when it comes to sweeping
dresses of satin and cloth, they sim
ply looked repulsive to me with their
hens well busted and various tassels
and sashes scooping up filth from the
streets. The very idea offends all
feelings for cleanliness and trim street
clothes, and it surely must have been
caused by a desire to hide the ugly
standard shoes which are not allowed
by law to exceed ~ inches from heel

THE HOME TOY SHOP

The children of Columbia have been
out of school so much this winter that
the large amount of leisure is growing
tiresome and they will perhaps well
come some suggestions for making in
teresting and inexpensive playthings
for themselves or to give to their lit
tie friends for Christmas.
For the little boy or girl who likes to
play soldier there is the tin can drum.
A tin coffee can, or any can similar
to a coffee can, may be made into a
drum by covering it with gay cOlored
paper and stringing it with heavy cord
after the fashion of real drum. Drum
sticks may be made from slender
sticks by wrapping the ends with cord
until knob or ball of the right size is
formed.
The little girl who likes to play
house will be delighted with a set of
furniture made from blocks and thin
boards. For a chair nail together a
square block and a thin board Of the
same width as the block and long
enough for the back of the chair. The
chair may be made any size that the
child wishes. A dresser is made by
mailing a block of wood suggesting
the body of the dresser to thin board
of corresponding width suitable for
the back of the dresser A bit of tin
foil or silver paper or a pocket mirror
may be used for the mirror. Pencil
lines TO suggest drawers may be add
ed to the front of the dresser.
For a four-legged table select thin
board for the table top. Saw off four
legs from a square or round stick.
The leg must be OF even length and
square on the ends or the table will
wobble. Nail the top to the legs, be-
ing careful to place them at equal
distances from each side and to leave
a space between the leg and the edge
of the top.
Amy of the pieces of furniture may
be painted with watercolors or cray
ons to a realistic shade.
A jaunty funny little doll can be
made from twig of an ordinary tree.
Select a twig that gives some resem-
blance to a body with arms. legs and
neck. Cut two pieces of heavy paper
shaped like a head. Paint or draw a
face on one side and the back Of a
head on the other. Glue the two piec-
es together and slip them over the
neck of the twig. Make hands and
feet in the same way and glue them in
place. Thin paper or scraps Of cloth
may be used TO make a costume. A
twig doll makes an amusing clown or
a Mother Goose.
The Evening Missourian. [volume] (Columbia, Mo.) 1917-1920, 1918-12-07

out of all the pretty feet and legs so
much in evidence, the great majority
are silk stockinged in one of these
taupe or putty shades and finished off
with cunning little snub nOsed oxfords
OF taupe or putty suede with high
Cuban heels and huge ties of two-inch
grosgrain ribbon.
It's really amazing how well shod
every Partisan woman is, whether
she's comtesse or cash girl. They all
wear the cute little round toed short
vamp high boots or slippers that we
call the stage last but over here now
they have dubbed the Partisan last.
Although you see many fancy strapped
slippers and Colonial styles with
bright buckles the Oxford is the real
favOrite. Aside from the suede models
it wrinkles in lustrous patent kid with
picked out perfOrations of white kid
trimming it around the instep and
across the tip or else with stitchings
of white. When white trimmings are
in evidence the black grosgrain rib
bon ties are also edged with white.

Private HObnail Tells
About \. A. Il. c. Class
By PRIVATE HOBN.

by PRIVATE HOBNAlL, h. +.
One of the 'profs" of the University
the other day in trying to reconcile
the class to some extent for the top
sy-turvy conditions of the semester
said, that if nothing else had been
gained this semester, we at least had
learned to adjus: ourselves quickly to
circumstances and conditions. This
brought up the idea of the survival
of the fittest" and all that goes with
it. The class decided that the stu
dents of the University and the towns
people of Columbia were nothing if
not fit, provided of course, that they
survived.
Somehow or other the subject of
chameleons was brought up and one
member of the class said that he felt
just like one of these changing little
animals, only he believed he had it
on them, in that he could not only
change color, but that he could
change his shape, and his mind, and
his state of mind, and his manners at
the table, and his ideals as to food
whether it was intended merely to
keep one going orfor the ticking of the
palate-and his idea as to what sleep
was for and all that
Well, the prof said that the women,
God bless 'em, that's just what he
said, had not so conventionalized their
dress as to appear as the men do, the
quintessence of crows; and that while
most of the men had changed more,
but showed it less; the most of the
women had changed less but showed
it more.
The weather got into the question,
as weather always will, and it was
remarked that that element of nature
had been the only consistent thing OF
the whole year and that it was incOn-
