Sammy Jay Becomes Judge.

When people begin to call one an
other names fight is pretty sure to
follow. That is what happened when
the two cousins. Chatterer the Red
Squirrel and Happy Jack the Gray
Squirrel, accused each other of steal
ing. They called each other all the
bad things they could think of until
the very trees turned away their
heads. Then they started fighting.
They fought until they couldn't fight
any more. They were too tired and
too sore to fight any more. But their
tongues could still go. and did go.
Jay stepped in. "This is shameful,
positively Shameful said Sammy,
and to have heard him you would
have thought that never in the world

a regular scandal in the neighbor-
hood and shocking all your neighbors.
This cannot go on. Now what is
all this trouble about? Disputes
should be settled by q Judge. Why
not choose a judge and each tell his
side Of the quarrel and let him de-
eide what shall be done?"
This sounded reasonable, and all the
neighbors insisted that it was the
only thing to do. Finally Chatterer
and Happy Jack agreed that they
would leave their quarrel to judge.
But when it came to choosing Judge
they started to quarrel all over
again. You see. each wanted some
one who he thought would be ia
lost patience.

FASHIONS

The costume blouse is doing its
best to GUST from first place in the
affections of the American woman
the conservative waist-length-suit
blouse which has held sway ever
since the need of a separate blouse
was first realized. The costume
blouse may be merely hip length OF
it may reach to the knees and serve
as a tunic over any plain silk, satin
or lace skirt. The two then combine
to make up a charming costume.
If the woman who owns number
of plain waist-length blouses desires
to dress them up and make them pass
muster in the costume blouse class
she may easily do this by the seiec-
lection and arrangement of girdle.
The wide folded girdles, sometimes
called carmen" girdles. are becom-
ing to practically all figures. These
girdles may be simply folded about
the figure and secured with invisible
fastenings, or they may be tied at
side front or back, the two long ends
finished with either fringe or tassels
hanging. Black velvet may be worn
with a blouse of any color, or
gir61le may be made to match the en-
broidery or other trimmings used on
the blouse.
The sketch shows a smart slip-over
blouse Of georgette. The neck and
sleeves are ornamented with ribbon
drawn through buttonholes. The
girdle may match the ribbon used in
the blouse, or it may be of black
satin or velvet.
Inasmuch as lace is having a very
strong vogue this season, a simple

| their first cousin-the hip-length
waistcoat-would remain on the other
side of the water. But they have ar
rived on our coast as suddenly as the
sharks did two summers ago.
If we have the price we will indulge
our postwar joy by buying the kind
that glisten like the cuirass Of those
warriors that taught us the art of
war; or we will forswear a kimono or
evening wrap Of Japanese or Chinese
brocade and choose the same material
for the knee-length tunic that lie SO
charitable to the separate skirt and
gives us a chance to display our econ
omy-which must not die until there
is no more need Of it., which means
until anarchy and hunger are con-
quered.
OF these b1ouses there is no end, for
France is far from weary of them, and
set herself to inventing a host of new
ones while she waited for Foch to de-
moralize the central powers. Did she
divine the end, with it's scream Of
noises and deluges. of scraps of pa
per, the roar of human voices lifted in
a shout that must have come to the
ears of the Angel Gabriel and made
him wonder if that final trumpet song
of his would not be a penny whistle
in comparison?

So finally 1t was agreed that Sam

The First Vivid Garments.

These blouses, or short tunics, were
the first brilliant forecasts Of the vic
torious spring that the French de-
signers permitted themselves, and
those that are arriving in this coun-
try are blazing the path for our own.
Whatever the colorful ancients
thought appropriate to express re-
joicing has been appropriated by us
for this modern season of happiness.
We will glisten as crusaders or look
like Samurai. or be remindful of the
early Bourbons, or appear as a shad-
ow of a most high mandarin. But
tunic blouses we will wear by what
ever name we call them. .< 60.
There are some that are suspicious
ly near those longish coats that cling
to the figure and which we are told on
high authority will rule the early
spring fashions; there are others that
hang as loosely, on the new square
lines, as Callots boxlike one-piece
defined figure is covered with one
that seems to have been lifted from
the treasure chest of Dagobert, or in
spired by a sight of that once mighty
tower to which his name is given, and
which is partly hidden in Paris by a
ouse-furnishing firm.
Did Dagobert, back in that coarse
and colorful seventh century, wear the
cuirass to which Paris has given his
name, we wonder? What matters 1T?
He was a patron of the arts and
good warrior And again we wonder
if it would amuse him to see raktsh
little f1apper running along with his
glittering cuirass outlining her curve
less figure and contrast his mighty
muscled frame with his very modern
follower.

What We Take From Mandarins.

Fashion from seven-leagued boots

serbs the clothes of a Celestial poten-
tate easily. The east always allures
us of this most modern country. We
are eagerly willing to wear the en-
broideries of Japan and China when
ever there is a slight excuse. The

blouse made of red gold and black
brocade that has Chinese hat top

tuate, the idea.

not at all eastern, but reminiscent OF

sistency. The belt is of gold cloth
lined with red, a ndthe two straps
over the shoulders match it.
