LEG DEVELOPMENT

THE human body should be covered
Il evenly with layer Of soft fatty
tissue. But In some cases. there is
an extra amount OF the tissue settled
In some parts. and not enough In
others One reason why some women
have fat hips with a slender body is
that heavy or tight clothes are sus-
pended from the waist, which by its
very weight compels this tissue TO
settle further down upon the hips.
Girls who work long hours In sitting
positions frequently have large hips
for much the same reason.
In the same way tight garters are
often responsible for stopping circu-
lation into the lower leg and therefore
prevent the fatty tissue from accum-
ulating there. Exercise is the only
way to develop the legs. the more
exercise the better the shape of the
legs. The leg swinging movement is
excellent 10 develop the entire body

CHAPEAU FOR THE DEBUTANTE
Girls Supposed to Wear Hats EXPIRES
sing Youth; Avoid Type Worn
by Older Women.

There Is none so powerful In the
mastery OF fashion who can lay down
the law about hats for a class. The
young girl Is supposed tc wear the
kind which expresses youth and avoid
the type worn by the older women.
This tradition Is gone by the board
Ii keeps company with Davy Jones'
locker, and a million traditions In the
depths.
The debutante Of this gay and pros
porous season wears on her head thar
which looks we'll over her face. The
rule is an excellent one to follow
through life. 1t aids the old and the
young, the pretty and the plain.
The stiff sailor shape, Gibsonlan In
its severity. is about the only kind
that Is not popular. All the hats that
have cluttered fashion since the idea
began of wearing formal coverings on
the head have reappeared this season.
They present bewildering array. IL
is true. but not an unpleasing one. II
is distinctly comfortable to find a
wide limit to ones choice.
The tam is the most girlish shape
and II persists in fashion. 1t has
ceased TO hang over the back of the
collar in the Latin quarter way. II
has plenty Of fullness. which is dis
posed to give breadth across the head
For ornament there is broad-spread
Egyptian design in some composition
in an Egyptian blue. This blue is ad-
mirable for debutanteS.

Vouue for Combination Of Materials
Enables Women to Conveniently
Change Style Of Garments.

1t is particularly easy this season TO
remodel passe frocks because combina-
tions of different fabrics are so much
in vogue.
If YOU are fortunate enough 10 have
q velvet gown which Is still in good
condition. but which needs few fresh
ening touches. it may with little work
be transformed into q smart up-tO-date
frock. If the skirt is gOred with wide
front and back panel with perhaps two
yores on the sides. they may be used
as panels and set over contrasting
shade of accordion plated geOrgette.
the velvet panels being loOped up or
caught together beneath the hem so
that they do not fly out when the wear
er walks.
The waist may receive a veStee OF
the georgette. while if the sleeves are
worn thin below the elbow they may be
c,lt off and finished with gathered puffs
of the crepe. If the panels are wide
enough. and if the wearer be tall and
slender, they may be allowed TO hang
loose.
Tunics are still in vogue and If you
have an evening frock of embroidered
net or lace that cannot again be worn
without receiving attention, the lace
may be used as an overtunic. the mar
rover sheath skirt being of metallic
cloth or satin. These little tunics are
often graduated or draped, In fact

European Champion Works
With Surprising Vigor and
Skill at Manhasset.
u, CHARLES +. MATHIsoN.

The good impression as to Carpen'
tiers physical condition created by his
first public workout last Monday after
noon was heightened yesterday wher
the European champion went through
his programme of exercises In the pres
ence OF large and appreciative crowd
that braved the ra1nstorm to geo the
Frenchman In action at his Manhassei
training quarters.
Owing to the lnclement weather Car
pentier restricted his work to shadow
boxing. rope skipping, bag punching
breathing exercises and calisthenics.
His performance bore eloquent testi-
mony to his speed, strength and vigor
and his shadow boxing was impressive
as showing his versatility in attack and
defence.
There was that IN his shadow boxina
that gave the impression that he felt he
was in the ring with Dempsey. and at
times he hooked and uppercut an imag-
mary opponent who apparently was
pinned against the ropes in d corner Of
the ring. Again he would feint with a
lightning left, following with tornado
rush and a shower OF right and left
hooks.
on The wall OF the gymnasium Is a
large poster depicting the Frenchman
being carried on the shoulders OF his
seconds after his quick knockout of
Joe Beckett in tho Hclborn Stadium
London.
Every time Carpenter caught sight OF
the poster he put moro force into the
blows he delivered in the air or against
the punching bag.
Carpenter was full OF life, and he put
enough ginger into each of his tasks to
keep the spectators on edge
One of the most interested spectators
ives Sam McVey, the huge negro heavy
weight who taught Carpenter several
things about boxing when the French
man was a featherweight. McVey, who
now weighs 2l7 pounds, was in Paris
for many years and had many great
fights there. One OF these was with Joe
Jeanette, April II, 1909, the battle last
ing forty-nine rounds, Jeanette being
the winner. Jeanette IS to join the
Carpenter camp N a few days. and Nc
Vey has also offered his services to the
Frenchman
Mcyey talks French fuently. and ne
and the champion chatted as the work
out proceeded.
"Sam.' called Carpenter. as ne de-
livered a one-two punch on the bag. and
then looked to see the effect on Mcvey.
Very good" grinned McVey. THAT
Is the one ! showed YOU"
McVey expressed the opinion that Car
pentier would make scientific fight of
his bout with Dempsey. and box at long
range. Tie would be foolish to mix with
a man who has SO great an advanta sc
in weight"
McVey was asked why he did not get
a match with Harry Wills, and said he
could If he would permit Wills to fight
go as you please rules.
"He wants to hang on with one hand
and hit with the other. That is the only
way he will fight"
McVey then told Of one Of Carpenter S
