long story since there are sports toys
of many kinds. The most fascinating
and interesting of these are the clothes
that have borrowed the character of
those garments made for real sports
wear but not intended for service, just
for looks" The sweater coats and
varied scarfs made of silk or wool in
many fanciful and fragile ways, the
delicate colOred headwear and the very
handsome skirts of sports silks are all
examples of sports clothes made to be
admired for their beauty, not for the
usefulness TO the sportswoman. They

Be Reasonable!

1t was during her summer vacation
on the farm that Elizabeth longed to
be allowed to drive the big team Of
horses. She was just five, but one af-
ternoon her cousin lifted her in and
gave her the reins. She pulled and
slapped them on the horses back, and.
in fear Of the team starting too swift
ly, Cousin Frances advised her to be
careful and drive with less motion.
Again she shook the reins violently.
Slower, Elizabeth, and you'll be a
better driver"
She held tight to her reins, then
turned and said reproachfully, Cousin
Frances, what can you s'pect? I'm
