eran diplomatist of the great south
ern republic. and has devoted more
than thirty years to the study of trade
relations between the two Americas.
Though the new ambassador has spent
more than two-thirds of his years In
pursuit of this knowledge. he has been
an indefatigable attendant at all of
the meetings of the American Cham
ber of Commerce of Rio, and the last
hospitality which he accepted before
sailing for his new post was dinner
and reception from that body. DR..
Alencar has never served in any Eu-

Chile and he was promoted to the
embassy in Washington after six
wears of arduous but successful work

Of Interest TO Women
SIMPLICITY IN NEW EMBROIDERY
BY ANNE RITTENHOUSE.

If you were asked point-blank this
question: Are the new things this
autumn much or little trimmed? What
would you say
Would you say that the clothes you
had SO far seen in the wardrobes of
the women you regarded as the best
dressed of your acquaintance We're
singularly simple and free from trim
ming. that the simplicity of the past
few seasons had been outdone and
that the clever clothes of this year
showed the triumph of line and de-
sign? Or would you say that clothes
| were fairly laden with embroidery.
and that simple light fabrics became
| heavy because of the intricacy of
WOODEN. bead and metal embroidery.
The Gospel of Simplicity.
You might make either answer and
still be within the truth. for the fact
is that several very contradictory
things have happened as far as trim
ming is concerned. Many of the most
distinctive of French frocks and suits
did show heaviness and elaborate
ness OF embroidery that was quite
striking. sometimes startling. and use
was made of beads and metallic
threads by way of lending variety to
this embroidery.
Some of the makers Of women's
clothes OF the less expensive sort in
this country made mistake when
they attempted to reproduce the
Americanized forms of these French
creations in clothes that would come
within the reach of the average
woman. Somehow the results didn't
please Most American women are
clothes canny enough to know that
when they have not a thick bank ac-
count to spend on clothes they had
best select of the simplest. They also
know that unless one is eighteen or
thereabouts and slender and grace
ful to boot 1t is best to steer clear of
Inc oyer e!aborately decorated frock
Ihey nave had the gospel of simplicity
preached to them too persistenly to
make a mistake there.
AND While this was happening over
here and the makers of less expensive
clothes were making simpler frocks
again, some of the French dress
inss early. were bringing out de-
signs that were as striking for their
lack of elaborate embroidery and
other ESTABLISHMENT as those first
things had been redolent with it. And
that explains why it is that the two
conflicting notions about the new
clothes exist at the present time.
From Bulloz.
Here is a frock from Bulloz, for
instance. 1t is of one of the soft
darker browns trimmed with exactly
matching braid, the contrast between
cloth and braid depending entirely on
the difference of the quality of the
material. These simple braid trim
med frocks were not among the
earliest things sent over from Paris.
We wouldn't have given them any
heed if they had been in those first
days when we We're still exclaiming
over the heavily embroidered fabrics.
But they are appearing with a con-
vincing persistency. And there is
smartness about them that is of the
sort that is sure to appeal to the
American woman. So, while you
revel in your heavily and colorfully
there is an effect to be achieved by
means of a frock braided in this char
acteristic Bulloz manner.

ssThe movement OF food should be

This IL the conclusion or the Fec.

made public today on the wholesale
marketing OF food. The report points
out that costs OF food distribution are
far too high and that the elimination
of unnecessary costs and losses would
not only "act as a counter agent IN
checking disparity In food prices ana
money incomes, but would strengthen
the nations position In It's compeu-
tion for world trade"
The report points out that the rapid
rise in food prices in recent years is

CHILDREN INNOCENT VICTIMS
OF PROFITEERING AND H. C.L.

TRENTON, Aug. 10.-How de-
pendent children of New Jersey
proved innocent victims OF gearing
rents ard consequent changes OF
ownership of homes. all a part of
the high cost of HING, is at:ested
in the annual repors of the state
Board of Children's Guardians SUD-
mitted to Commissioner Burdette
G.. Lewis, of the State Department
of Institutions and Agencies Based
upon the experience of Miss Frances
Day, superintendent of the board
and her agents, the report sets forth
that because of high rents and con-
sequent breaking UP of homes grow
ing out of this condition the board
was deprived of many suitable shell
tiers for the state wards.
Miss Day pointed out in her re-
port to the board of managers,
was seriously handicapped, and that
in many cases, children who had
been properly placed were turned
back to the board by families, who
had been assisting for years but
because of losing their own homes,
could not find sufficient quarters for
even their own children. Another
element of the work that caused
annoyance during the year, the re-
port showed, hinged upon the num-
Der of defective children, who at
present are scattered throughout
the state in aims houses and with
little if any prospect of being re-
moved to better quarters. These
children are feeble minded and
idiotic and cannot be placed in pri-
vate families. They are obliged to
remain in the almshouse because
the State Is without institutional ia
cilities to care for them properly.
The railroad strike of several
months ago is blamed in the re-
port for h~andicapping field work of
the State Board in the way of pre-
venting frequent institutional visits.
Qualification is expressed in the re-
port over results obtained in oper-
alton OF the so-called widows PEN
sion law.
