In war book written about the en-
gagements around Malines and Cam
penhout appears this incident:
A child of two came into the street
as eight drunken soldiers were march
ing by. A man in the second file STEP
ped aside and drove his bayonet into
the child's stomach. He lifted the
child into the air on his bayonet and
carried it away, he and his compan-
ions still singing. The child scream
ed when the soldier struck it with his
bayonet, but not afterwards.
Commenting upon the incident,
Bruce Barton, editor of Every Week,
writes:
"I do not often ask you to read un-
pleasant paragraphs. I do it now be-
cause, when it comes to writing about
Liberty bonds, feel like throwing

LVET DANCE FROCkS TAILOR MAOES FOR SERIOUS MOODS

shades are appropriate for young girls.
Tho blacks and deep blues are left
along with the heliotropes and pc
tunias for their mothers and grand
mothers.
Some very pleasing dancing dresses
are made Of stiff old fashioned taffeta.
One of this fabric has plain skirt
pulled into a butterfly bow arrange
ment at the back which resembles the
bustles of some seasons ago, but which
will look very we'll indeed on young,

basque In front and n line Of silver
around tho neck. The sleeves nre

Last year We observed certain

OF every kind, and this season this
vogue seems 10 be general. find it
embellishing the very vide bell shaped
sleeves OF canary colored taffeta

usual that they seem to make tho

AS for the rcst OF this pretty frock
, there is u wide skirt which Is ut the
! same time sufficiently pulled in to sug-
gest the now tight silhouette. At the
waist deep puff Of tho tafeta falls
over II wide sash Of satin ribbon in a
pastel shade. The decollete neck is
! shaped in V and has a touch of sill
! YER lace and n bit OF the pastel ribbons.
! Nothing could exceed the jauntlncs'
and style of the swagger little coats of
the suits accepted as the correct de-
sign for young wearers this year. The
coat falls in perfectly straight line
from hem to hip and is loose enough
! to fall away from the figure in the So
called box effect. An excellent eX-
ample of this sort of coat suit is de-
veloped in blue duvetyn and gray fox
fur trimming.
! While the coat has all the grace one
could desire and the most effective
jauntincss, the skirt is very tight and
so narrow that stepping is an art fol
the wearer thereof. OF course, this
funny little narrow and very long skirt
comes from Paris. 1t brings again a
slight slit in the hem SO that the feet
really may move. Whether or not this
particular fashion is a concession to
economy and conservation, / cannot
say. - II is delightfully."- developed also

1t is n curious expression Of the psy-

ought to DO carefully guided and to
be taught the charm of simple and ex-
