THE AMERICAN WAY.
The voluntary hospital system

The voluntary hospital system of
London has reached critical stage.
To maintain it longer, at least four
million pounds must be raised i'm
mediately by subscriptions, and the
money does not seem to be forthcom-
ing. Anti-alcohol champions in Eng
land are taking advantage of this oc-
casion to remind the Britishers that
the amount expended in the country
in only four days for drink (calcu-
lating it at rate of 100000 pounds
per day. would pay the bill of the
voluntary hospitals for year, and
that the American experiment points
a way by which the calls for service
can be so lessened that the expense
of maintaining the hospital can be
reduced to a very low figure. They
cite the remarkable health record
and low death rate in the United
States since the outlawing of the Ii
quor traffic, and the statements of
physicians of repute that the reason
therefor is the decrease in the con-
sumption of alcoholic beverages.
One could ask no better recon-
mendation of our national prohibition
law at the end of its first year of
operation than the fact that we have
experienced in 1920 the best health
year in our existence, the death rate
being only 1887 per 1000, the low
est ever known. This argument for
prohibition is unanswerable and 81
lences our opponents. And these re-
suits have come even though the
law has not been given a chance to
show what it can do. If the law were
well enforced, the health benefits
would be so remarkable as to be ir-
restible to our friends across the
sea. The incentive is one that ought
to call forth our very finest and most
earnest efforts. Let us strive for
a one hundred per cent enforcement
of the law that we may have one
hundred per cent health record.

How to Know Poetry.

We literates have been taught to
read poetry, and taught also that it
is highly commendable to enjoy it. In
order to know what kind of poetry
ought to be especially enjoyed, we read
other books, written by critics. In or
der to understand what the poetry
that ought to be admired means, we
read other books by professional
grammarians. BY the time we have
finished this preparatory reading, we
are somewhat confused. We are in
doubt as to what poetry actually is,
and how 1t differs from prose. In this
predcament we fall back on the print
er. If every line begins with cap
ital letter, we assume that it is po-
etry.-Samuel McChord Crothers in
the Atlantic Monthly.

Historic stratford.on.Avon.

The history of Stratford-on-Avon
may be traced back for a period of
1,100 years, and as the birthplace Of
Shakespeare is has become classic
center visited annually by some $4,000
people. The Guard house, where
Shakespeare was born; Shottery,
where he courted Anne Hathaway; /;
Charlotte park, once the seat of Sir
Thomas Lucy, whose displeasure
Shakespeare incurred by stealing
his deer; the Shakespeare Memo
rial theater, on the banks of the Avon,
and Shakespeare's monument, are all
places worthy Of visiting in the old
market town of Stratford-on-Avon.
The Shakespeare hotel, situated in
the center of the town and close to
the Shakespeare Memorial theater,
was cree ed in the Fourteenth CEN
tury. A few doors from Shakespeare
hotel is the Harvard House, which
was the early home of the Harvard
family, founders of Harvard univer-
sity.

India's Fertility.

India, more than half the size of
Europe, has every variety of surface,
climate and production. The contrast
between the level monotony Of the
Great plain and the beautiful con-
tours of the Milgiri and Pulney hills
is no greater than that between the
arid heat Of Jacobabad and the polar
frigidity of the Himalayas; or that
between the palm groves Of Cochin and
the wheat fields Of Lyallpur. The pro-
ductivity Of India extends over three
zones: the tropical, sub-tropical, and
temperate; though on account of vary
ing elevations these do not always
comply with mere considerations Of
latitude.

The Lambertville record. [volume] (Lambertville, N.J.) 1872-1968, 1921-02-04

THE stores are displaying entire
l. outfits of ready-made clothes for
children of all ages. For the smaller
ones there are so many practical and
attractive frocks that it seems hardly
worth while to make them at home,
except that the home seamstress can
put In little individual touches not to
be found in ready-mades. The styles
displayed and the materials used are
interesting to every one, for these
ready-made garments are the work of
expert specialists and they have
turned out frocks more charmingly
childish than ever for the coming
spring.
For pretty frocks white and colored
organizes appear to have inspired the
imagination of designers. The daintiest
dresses are made Of them nearly al
ways in combination of white and one
color, as white with frills of pink or
blue or yellow. These frills or ruch-
ings have picot edges usually in black

rNNHE shops are displaying those in
L. spring new hats made for the
benefit of southern tourists, that al
lure all of US because of their beauty,
and, quite as much, because of their
suggestion of springtime and pleas
ure. They prove as interesting to
those who stay at home as to those
who journey south and furnish all
the cues for deml-seasOn and early
spring millinery. In sports hats they
set the pace for the coming summer,
hut they include tailored and dress
hats that, at least, influence the in
coming fashions in these hats.
A group of four hats pictured above
includes a sports hat, a street hat
and two that are intended for more
formal wear. The sports hat at the
upper left is made of white satin and
has a crown in four sections decor
ated with narrow black braid in paral-
lei lines. Each of the decorated sec
lions is centered with a row of black
Jet cabochons and the facing is of
black satin. Smart and informal

and white TO begin with, and every
thing else that spells "class."

pretty frocks of colored, dotted swiss,
made up with yokes and sleeves Of
white organdy matching the white
dots. Where the body Of the frock
joins the short yoke sprays of tiny
colored flowers and foliage are en-
broidered.
Following these sheer affairs come
the small checked ginghams, in white
and color, banded and finished with
white organdy which serves for collar.
cuffs, sash or yokes, and sleeves, and
then come the plain chambrays, usual
ly trimmed with applique-scalloped
borders of chambray in a darker color,
outlined with simple stitches in mer-
cerized floss. For very little folks,
from two years to four or five, there
are innumerable practical dresses and
rompers, much like that one shown
in the picture. Strong plain cotton
or coarse linen is used for making it
and its edges are finished with button
holed scallops. There is little SIM
pie needlework on plaits at each side
and buttonholed slashes about the
waist for belt of ribbon or of the
material, to slip through.

Next TO the sports hat is a dressy
model in black hair braid with a
flange of malines about its brim max
ing a soft shadow in the eyes. Its
soft, round crown is covered with a
veil of fine chantilly lace. Such hats
often shelter a small spray of ex-
quisite flowers or fruit, smuggling
against the crown or on the brim.
A little less fragile is the hat with
crown of paOn velvet, embellished
with stitches of silvergray silk. This
hat has an upturned brim edged with
braid and is draped with fine net
veil having an embroidery in gray
for border The street hat which
finishes the group has a four-cor-
nered brim covered with a striped
and plated material and a round
crown draped with satin. 1t is an
other black and white combination and
is finished with loops of black velvet
in a daring pose on the right side OF
the brim.
