English Women at
Tennis

ENSIGN, now Lieutenant, Francis
T. Hunter, U. S. NJ, enjoys the
distinction Of having been invited to
play tennis with Admiral Beatty at
the latter's home in Aberdour. He
found the English admiral an excel
lent and courageous partner in their
doubles match, and later was struck
with the expertness Of the English
woman's court play. In "The Worlds
Work" he tells of Lady Beatty's
game:
Late In the afternoon we resumed
our game. The admiral had had
enough, 80 preferred to play with the
kids. Lady Beatty and I played a
mixed double against Bentinck and
Lady Marr. II was quite a tussle. In
England ladies' tennis is devcloped

States. They ALI play. and play re-
msrkably well. While we have two or
three experts better than any one IN
tho world, they have here a whole
Night Of frst-class players, against
whom We have none 70 match. Either
Lady Beatty or Lady Marr could win
over any but perhaps five Of our Amer
fcsn ladies. And they are not the best

Parliament, who, from the early days
of the war, set himself about trying to
get adequate pensions for soldiers,
lie declares he was never able to get
the government to give the discharged
and demobilized soldiers their dues,
and, even before the war was over, he
began to organize the veterans under
the clarion cry of Proper PENSIONS"
The same correspondent was una
BILE to find any disposition for or
ganization in France. There he
talked with French barber, who
had served in the infantry:
Now, | suppose, l said to him,

France. We would never end such an
argument. Every man in France has
been a soldier in some branch Of the
army, and so we would all be broken
up into different classes. Mol No!

to do such thing"
In general, the American press

the American Legion, a non-parti-

ASSOCIATION composed Of American
soldiers and sailors who served dur

The stage will be set In St. Louis
on May 8, 8 and 10 for the pre-

Is compared to the establishment Of

Lengthen Skirts of June Gowns
Fringe Again in Fashion

THERE have been few sensations
thrown int, the arena Of
= clothes that equalled the short
French skirt OF this spring. At FIRST
only the buyers and reporters gasped;
then the public actually screamed
aloud in protest against the fashion.
II is quite probable that France Gre
ated this sensation with purpose and
forethought. She had no new ma
terials to handle. and she felt that
some drastic action was necessary to
keep the attention OF the world fast
ened upon her work. She went back,
therefore. to q very old method Of
shocking the world. which Is the ex-
posture OF a woman's figure.
Each generation and each segment
Of q generation feels that this sensa-
tional phase of fashion is peculiar to
the time and hour People quickly
forget what has gone before. Those
who DIP deeply into women's apparel
realize that what Is known as Oriental
ism in clothes appears and reappears
throughout the centuries; and the
popularity of its many REVEALS lies in
the fact that they occur nearly always
when tho world Is in tempest; when
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1916-1920, 1919-04-13

that II has broken out in fifty new
phases. Truly, there are certain eve
ming gowns Of tulle from which drop
many strands, and balls and tassels
Of crystals that resemble nothing SO
much as 1910 chandeliers. All that
the possessor needs to complete the
resemblance In to stick a few wax
candles on the shoulders, head and
hands.
Return of the Choker Collar.
BY the way. speaking Of 1910 and
other Victorian animate and mani
mate fashions. France returns the
high, choker collar. One OF our buyers
suggested that II was done to hide the
thinness Of the neck due to the under
feeding and fearful anxiety Of the
French women during the war. The
fashion, like the short skirt, weaves
it's way in and out Of the pattern Of
feminine dress. It was worn less than
two decades after the Civil War, and
It was worn by Queen Elizabeth. This
gives some idea Of its persistence.
AS the French arrange it and as our
smart women are wearing It, 1t 10

exposing a double chin; It lifts itself
toward the ears and is exaggerated,
sometimes. toward the form which
Sarah Bernhard made famous.
Mind you, the choker collar Is worn
to-day with half low frock as we'll as
one that Is deeply decollete. With the
ordinary street frock. which is cut low
and round at the neck, there goes a
choker collar which Is either plain or
fanciful. The plain ones are Of black
satin and white linen, and one was
worn by a mannequin who showed a
French model that made the woman
exclaim that looked at It: I'm not
interested in bathing suits. Show me
| some frocks."
This gown was of dark blue serge,
with wide girdle and sash Of black
satin, and It was fastened at one
shoulder and across the back with
white pearl buttons. The hem Of tho
skirt reached the knees, and the
sleeves were only elongated armholes
The neck was low. and the addition Of
choker collar. we'll above the decollete
| line, gave one an instant feeling
that the mannequin had suddenly be-
come squeamish and put on the f1rst
thins at hand to cover herself.
The house Of Cheruit in Paris spon-
sors the high, separate collar made Of
small ostrich tips, which was worn In
Palm Beach in February. In blue,
yellow and pink it is considered a very
smart touch indeed to a low gown in
the same color, or in white. Black
ones have appeared in the restaurants
at the lunch hour. worn with silk or
cloth frocks that have a round
lecolletase abouefour inches deep.
This fashion stands the econo-

The Return OF the Cape.
The topcoat appears to be shelved
along with the winter furs. Moth balls
will be its constant companion until
the fashion for it is revived. The cape
Is the thing. It is narrow at the hem.
large at the elbows, and very much
ornamented at the shoulders.
The trick that the dressmakers ex-
plot to its fullest power-is the COM
blnation Of a cape and a frock as one
costume. This Is the new substitute
for the coat suit. A frock Of foulard,
for instance, carries its own cape in
blue serge, with the foulard as q lin
Ing. The cape Is trimmed with rows
of black silk braid in Victorian man

banded with braid and fringed with
heavy silk tassels.
There Is another successful costume
which consists Of a cape Of biscuit

There Is a feature about this cape
that should appeal to every woman
who has struggled to keep q circular
outer garment in place on the shout

the bodice Of the gown. and a loop On
each side Of the neck Of the cape, and
when the two are fastened. the caDs

The world that considers this type OF
