Knitted Toys
In Vogue
By Rita Stuyvesant.

THE knitting needles have
again begun to click from
d coast to coast, and this time
they are making dainty toss for
little people as we'll as smart
sweaters for the older girls. This
promises to be a season OF knitted
apparel.
For chilly afternoons what could
be more enhancing than a knitted
cape for fye-year-olds? One dainty
model is fashioned from orange
worsted and favored with deep
collar OF white brushed wool. The
cape falls to the knees and Is
tied with a white braided cord,
tasseled at the ends. This same
model is also shown in coral, tur-
quoise and pink with white or tan
trimmings.
To accompany the crepe there is
a small poke hat, deftly crocheted
over a light wire frame A big
white woolly pompon Is the sole
trimming.
Entire dresses OF worsted are
offered in the smarter Juvenile
shops, and are completed by tiny
tights or boomers to match. A
dainty sea-shell pink costumes for
a child of four consists of a frilled
frock, boomers and a tam. The
frock is finished with a frill at
the bottom, sleeves and neck. and
the high waistline is threaded
with a narrow blue ribbon. The
bloomers are ribbon trimmed at
the knees. and a bit OF ribbon is
used on the tam.
A novel creation in wool is
pretty pink parasol, crocheted
over a frame, in a clever looped
effect. The edge is prettiIy
fringed with a ribbon bow tied in
the handle. A very lovely accom-
paniment to a simple white dress
is this parasol. Lavender and
sky-blue are all attractive colors
for the sunshade.
No sport coat is complete this
season without a smart scarf and
can to wear with it. There are
some attractive sets of angora for
children in both neutral and plaid
effects that may be purchased
reasonably in the shops. The
scarfs are worn about the shoul-
ers, and are finished with two big
patch pockets in the front mar

Advice to
Lovelorn
By Beatrice Fairfax.
GIVE UP.

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Three years ago I became ac-
Quainted with q young lady in .
distant part of this country in
which I then lived. We became
pretty good friends and then 1 left
the city and heard no more from
her. 1 finally looked up her ad-
dress in the Library of Congress
and wrote her a letter telling how
! had knocked around considerably
but had finally settled down to An
ish my education. Two weeks later
sent her an Easter card. l had
stated in the letter that I desired
to renew our acquaintance. Yes
terday l received an envelope con-
tanning two postal cards on the
backs of which was written the fol-
lowing:
"Que tai, hombre! Your letter
was forwarded to me from M
and / was as surprised to hear from
you as you probably are to know
that II Is over year now since
I've been living in Havana. It's a
great life and lots of II. l wonder
you had time to remember your old
friend that I used to be, but that
was mucha-much time ago. and 1
don't believe either Of us have spent
much time standing still. You cer-
tainly are getting your share of va
riety.
IAN doing stenography now. This
Is the one city for stenogs. We
have lots of Amer. friends, plenty of
time for dancing and partyIng, so
do you wonder l like Havana"
Now. Miss Fairfax, the young
lady failed to inclose her address.
That, and the fact that she wrote
on the backs of two postals might
or might not indicate many things
whether or not she cared to re-
new our acaouaintance-but why,
then, did she write at all.
Don't give up so easily. She may
have posted her mail in a hurry and
forgot to include her address. Write
again and see what happens.
