From about her seventh year until
she is well along in the "flapper" stage
the growing girl usually requires soae
special attention to clOthe her becom-
lngly. This is "the awkward age"
with some children, who are either too
angular or too chubby, while others
get through It without difficult lines
that must be softened. But for all
Of them the straight line dress seems
TO be the safe choice-the thin little
girl and the fat little girl, with per-
haps a little variation in waist line,
wear 1t with equal success.
New frocks for school, and other
everyday wear this fall, have been pre-
scented, and two Of them, shown above,
demonstrate how well the specialists
who design children's clothes have
managed the straight-line idea. These
two refined and sensible dresses are
pretty and no little girl will look awk-
ward in them. They will interest
the mother who must busy herself with
her daughters school frocks. Both
these models are adapted to cotton or
to wool materials, and both suggest
ways for remodeling and making
over" wooden clothes that 1t is the
part of patriotism to pass along from
grown-ups to the small fry during war

Tulane Theatre.

At the Tulane next week comes
Raymond Hitchcock. Also we fling
him salutation-but not for the
same reason. Rather because he
isn't a great actor and because we
enjoy him just about as we'll as if
he were. We imagine that he
would be the first to put his hand
in front of his face and giggle if
anyone intimated that he would
some day fit the shoes of Richard
Mansfield.
Hitchcock's mission in life isn't
to act, but rather to exhibit himself
as he really is for our entertainment.
Probably the pessimist secretly
wishes that he could smile. We
all look at Hitchcock and wish that
we were as happy as he appears to
be. He's a fine tonics because he is
assuredly one of the funniest fellows
on the stage of our theatre.
Aside from all that, he is a good
Snowman. He knows what people
like and he gives it to them. He's
not only a comedian, but he has the
comedic sense that warns him what
will be pleasing to all who go up
to the theatre to see and hear. 1t
has been said that he has as many
corners as a Queen Anne cottage.
He has And you never know just
which angle will be thrust forth
prominently. Usually, however,
he'll make you giggle as first con-
sideration. and then he'll not be lax
in providing something to please
your eyes.
Hitchcock is an adept at the Sc
! lection of decorative chorus. Some
body asked him how he did it and
he replied that eyes and voice were
the best guide. 'In them you can
| best read real human nature" he
added. ''Of course a good figure is

Orpheum Theatre.

One would have to travel a long
way, and then build show all his
own, to find a better vaudeville bill
than that presented this week at the
Orpheum. From Cyclonic Eva
Tanguay, with her wonderful person
atty and widespread popularity, to
the Orpheum Travel Weekly.
1t is impossible to describe Eva
Tanguay-she is simply herself, this
time with new songs, except her
perennial favorite, Il Don't Care"
which she sings with as much verve
and in as mirth-provoking a manner
as she did the first year she presented
it.
The remainder of the bill is so well
balanced so well divided between
music, comedy and dancing, with a
lot of good singing thrown in. that

ton. Ore of the most remarkable
dogs in the world opens the program,
"Silvermoon," a pure white Spitz,
trained from infancy to throw his
body into any position of a contortion-
list and hold it there for an indefinite
time. This dog seems to have no
bones at all and few human beings
would be able, even with lifelong
training, to assume the postures into
which this little animals master puts
him.
The Fashion Plate, delineator of
songs and styles, with Bobbie Simonds
ably operating at the piano, mystifies
the Audience throughout the act, as
to whether the artist is a man or a
beautiful girl. You will have to see
this act to learn for yourself. George
M. Fisher and John X. Hawley have
a comedy, Business is Business
based on the troubles of a pair of
Jewish merchants, with their office
girl, which is laugh from beginning
to end Seldom indeed has the Hebrew
character been given better delinea-

comedians.

which keeps the audience in a roar OF

gravity and odd appearance are in
themselves cause for this merriment

which will ruin the digestion and

Don't flatter yourself because no evil

is no harm done. Many of our other
wise splendid men and women would
be worth much more to the world and
themselves If they had been properly
fed when young. If our farmers are
so impressed in their teaching of feed
ing cattle with the idea that careful
feeding, weighing of food and con-
slant watching are important for the

should be dOubly important that every
mother should use as much care. in
the feeding Of her child.
A hot cream soup when possible Is
a sufficient luncheon with bread and
butter sandwich. A cupful OF hot
milk in cold weather is a nourishing
food given with few crackers. When
the child refuses to drink his milk let
him have straw to drink it through
and serve the milk In pretty glass
or cup. Clear broth or cruel may be
served In this way.
A bit of chicken or lamb, fish and
eggs, ore all good for the school child,
and may be given in the form Of sand
witch filling.
Custards, rice, gelatin, desserts and
sponge cake are all safe foods for lit
tie people.
A child has a natural craving for
sweets, which should be gratified with
pure sugar candy occasionally, figs,
dates and raisins, or in the form OF
a sweet sandwich. Cover bread and
butter with grated maple sugar, brown
sugar or maple strip. Do not cut
down on the butter, milk and cream
for the child, for they are foods es-
sential to his growth. A butter sub
stitute may be used If the child drinks
plenty of milk, but otherwise pile on
the butter.
