Ladies from He'll have made the cos
tune the cause of wild admiration Of

1t, nor will chastened mothers request

is good evidence that we have wisely
and, let US say, forever gotten over
the desire for the foolfshly pictorial in
Juvenile clothes.
But It is not possible for the war
to leave oil forms Of dressing free
from its sinister influence.

after Americas entrance into the
war, in April, 1917, the line Of COM
munication between the German gov
eminent and the leaders Of the Sim
Fein party was broken temporarily,
though there was no reason to believe
that the messenger service between
America and Ireland devised by John
Dewey was affected.
"A clew to the new line of communi.
cation was obtained subsequently ana
has been followed up actively. The ef-
feet of this new line in Ireland Is visi-

leaders during this period.
De Valera Planned Army. +
"For example, Prof. De Valera, ad-(
dressing the convention of the irish
volunteers on October q, 1917. said:
"'By proper organization md re-
cruiting we could have 100000 fighting
volunteers in Ireland. That would be
big army, but without the opp0r-
tunity and means for fighting 1t could
only be used as menace. There NJ
ready has been too much bloodshed
without success, and would never
advocate another rebellion without
hopeful chances Of success. We can
see no hope of that in the near future
except through German invasion OF
England and the landing Of troops and
munitions in Ireland. We should be
prepared to leave nothing undone to-
ward that end
ION another occasion, In January
Of this year, De Valera said:
"'As long as Germany Is the enemy
Of England and England is the enemy
of Ireland, so long will Ireland be q
friend of Germany
"About April, 1918, 1t was ascer'(
tanned definitely that a plan for land
ing arms in Ireland was ripe for exc
cution and that the Germans only
awaited definite information.
"The British authorities were able to
warn the Irish command regarding the
probable landing Of an agent OF Ger
many from a submarine. The agent
actually landed on April IL and vas
arrested.
Revolt to Follow Drive.
1.-The new rising depended largely
upon the landing Of munitions from
submarines and there Is evidence to
show that 1t was planned to follow
successful German offensive In the
west and was to take place at time
when Great Britain presumably would
be stripped of troops.
According to documents found on
his person, De Valera had worked out
in great detail the constitution OF his
rebel army. He hoped to be able TO
muster 100000 trained men. There Is
evidence that German munitions actu-
ally had been shipped on submarines
from Cuxhaven in the beginning OF
May, and that for some time German
submarines have been busy Off the
west coast of Ireland on other errands
than the destruction Of allied ship
ping.
mo other course was open to the
government If useless bloodshed was
TO be avoided and its duty to Its allies
fulfilled but to intern the authors ana
abettors of this criminal intrigue"

Frill Epoch For
Children'S Wear

New York.-Do not take the fashion
Of children's clothes for granted. Do
not fall into the error of going on the
old methods. There is as much ebb
and flow In the tide of juvenile cos
tumery as In adult, so watch straws
and then 60 with the current, is the
advice Of a prominent fashion writer.
Patterns cannot be handed down
from one child's wardrobe to another.
What was worn last season is usually
out of the picture by the time the new
season begins.
Things were not always according
to this schedule Of variation. For CEN
turtles children were dressed alike.
Glimpse backward over the portraits
that hang In our museums to prove
this. The tOrturous clothes that were
put on infants three centuries ago will
most probably make the modern wo-
man, filed to the eyes as she is with
the schedules Of hygiene and santa
ton, want to scream aloud at the mis-
cry that was inflicted.
Even the wooden sabots and long
full skirts of the small Dutch girl,
with her white rabbit, stirs in the
mother Of the moment a violent feel
ing of reform. We grieve far more
for the discomfort of the young man
than for the actual grief Of the old.
AS near to nudity as the law allows
has been the modern Interpretation of
children's clothes, and we have felt
that by hardening their legs and arms
through constant exposure in the for
native years. we are handing them
talisman against weakness and dis
ease in the settled seasons of life.'
The elimination Of the garter that
binds, the corset that restricts, the
skirt that hampers, the sleeves that
cover, the shoe that pinches, has aided
the doctor and the teacher.
Touch Of Military.
Does your particular memory go
back to the days when to dress a boy
child as Highlander was to prove
yourself in the fashion? The swagger
of the Gordons was not even omitted
from the clothes for small girls. Scotch
bOnnets were as common among chill
dren as they are now among men.
= Whether or not 1t brought the pas
sionate and rebellious shame of Pen
rod, plaid kits were placed on boys
whose faces burned with indignation
at the thought Of wearing skirts and
showing their knees. Rakish bonnets
with a gay feather were perched over
scowling brows, and only the Lord
Fauntleroys Of life were pleased with

an abiding place on the coat Of a
slim little suit.
Now, however, that such big ma.
5ority Of young women find that public
opinion permits them to wear breeches,
cap and coat for war relief work, they
are less apt to use up the military
ideas in the more feminine costumes.
In children's clothes there is little
OF the war that can be adopted, but

Adopting Fashions Of Age.
Between the nursery and middle
youth there is a mass of children that
must be dressed well throughout the
hot season, and for these the design
ers have turned out enough fashions
to supply the demand Of continent
of grownups. They smack Of sophis-
tication, some Of them, and are taken
directly from the clothes of their ell
ders.N
There is the surplice bodice, the
Martha Washington collar which re-
sembles handkerchief, the patent
leather belt, the umbrella skirt, and
the short sleeves-which, after all, age
has merely pilfered from youth this
spring.
There are still touches Of an older
war In the retention Of the top hat
and cape coat in two colors, which was
adopted from the directoire and the
consulate, after the designers could
not force them upon women with any
degree Of success last winter.
The organdie frotks, which spring
like III Lshrooms from Bar Harbor to
the Florida coast this year, are found
to be admirable for youth when 1t Is
parading itself In the afternoon. 1t
goes well on even the smallest girl.
1t is chosen in colors as well as white,
and now that colored ribbon sashes are
revived by old and young, the organdie
takes on the atmosphere Of the flow
cry part of the nineteenth century and
fits into the landscape as the sport
clothes never do.
Grown-Up Fashions In Miniature.
1t is fact that you cannot fail to
observe. If you have had occasion tc
study the recently produced clothes for
little girls that some of the styles Dor.
rowed from-or, rather, suggested by
the styles launched this spring for
mammals clothes have done rather
better In the juvenile version than In
the adult. Whatever may be the fnte
Of the eton jacket In grown-up cos
tumery, true 1t Is that not one woman
in ten can wear 1t to advantage. In
short, the ston jacket style goes very
much better with children than with
their mothers or big sisters. Likewise
the collar that is always part of the
picture with the eton jacket-the
roundabout collar, that seems to make
double chins triple. and hides all the
prettiest curves In the grown womans
neck without concealing any OF the
ugly ores. 1t is eminently becoming
on a little girl, in fact. one never
knows what an entirely adorable spot
Is to be found at the back of a little
girls neck until one has seen II In this
