Prague, the government OF the new

Dinner
BY Associated Press

New York, Oct. 2S.-Anarchists
attended a welcome home" dinner
here last night to Emma Goldman
and Alexander Berkman, which
marked the first public appearance
OF the two anarchists since their re-
lease from prison. Most of the
speakers declared they preferred de-
portation to being sent to prison in
the Philippines, which they charac-
terized as the American Siberia" !"
A bill was recently introduced in
Congress to make an island of the
Philippine group a penal colony.
Emma Goldman appeared before
the Immigration authorities at Ellis
Island yesterday to show cause why
she should not be deported under
the anti-anarchist law. In her de-
tense she filed citizenship papers of
her father and the cancelled citizen
ship papers of her husband.

size OF threads in various fabrics. II
the material is of a coarse. heavy

decide whether she wants her hem

she must. II she will have her work

very pretty finish for table runners

and such things, and is also being
used much for lingerie and even for
other clothes Some of the new
Georgette gowns and blouses are

/ which is a most charming decora-
ton.
Diagonal hemstitching is a simple
variation of the same stitch. the
first row or side. is stitched in the
usual way but. when the opposite
side is. reached, half the stitches in
the irst group are taken up over
he needle at first and fastened
down; then the other half. together
with the first half of the next group,
are combined and fastened with one
stitch. thus giving what is known as
a herring bone effect.
What is known commonly as

tion-oftentimeS Of course, a very
elaborate elabOration-of this sim
pie hemstitching, which is so easily
done.
