EATS IN PECULIAR POSITION
FIamingo Forced to Contortions Be-
cause Its Upper Jaw, Not the
Lower, Is Movable.

Nature has so created the beauti-
full flamingo that he does some things
both backwards and upside down. For
one thing, he eats with the crown of
his head on the ground. in the bottom
of some shallow stream. From one
glance at his jaw one would think 1t
was badly broken. Instead, his bill
is in perfect working order. only things
are reversed with it, and his lower
Jaw is securely fixed. while his upper
jaw is movable. Both portions OF his
big beak are arranged in series OF
thin plates. like the bills of all mem
bers of the duck family. so that he can
easily Sift the nice squirmy things he
likes from the soft mud.
FlamingOes frequent salt marshes.
and when these become dry will then
go long distance to find others. Florida
used to be the birds happy hunting
ground and many lovely members OF
the family could be met in other coun-
trles. Very few of them are left now,
and those surviving are very shy OF
the hunter. and seldom seen. Very
few are left in this country. and bird
lovers predict that in a few years
more they will become extinct.

cord and tasseI is suspended from the
coat at each side, falling from small
bow of ribbon. These taSseIS and
cords have no particular reason for
being where they are, except to look
pretty; they do add to the grace of
the coat by weighing it. There is no
attempt to follow the style that in
spires Il negliGee with fidelity TO the
original. The Chinese cord and taSsel
idea is used along with very pert little
ribbon bows having an American fla
yOr, and ribbon rosette with long ends
at the front.
Such sensible things as the combina-
ton undergarment for a little girl,
shown in the picture, must share at
tentiOn with beautiful negligees in the
spring sewing. The body and Knockers
are cut in one, the former gathered
into an elastic band at the knee or on
n straight band that buttons. Neck
and short sleeves are finished with
buttOn-hOle stitching over the edges OF
small ScaIlOps, and the same garment
is made with lower neck and sleeve
less for midsummer wear. The weight
of the muslins used varies, too, ac-
cOrding to the season for which the
combinations are made.

1t used tO be that, to call a gar
menu practical was about equivalent
to calling it commonplace" but that
day has gone by More and more the
intangible element of style is de-
manded and commands Il very tangi-

The two coats shown in the picture
above will first catch the eye because
of their smart style and then will
hear study as thoroughly practical.
The supplenesS of the seasons coat
ings makes it easy for designers to do
unusual things, as in the coat shown
at the left of the picture. where odd
capelike extensions are ser in at the
sides and the body of the coat is
joined to deep yoke with many rows
of machine stitching. Everything in
the model is on Il generous scale, even
the handsome buttons are extra large.
