ornamental loin cloths. going back to
first principles, color thrown in for good
measure.
The top part of the new garments is
cut according to the ruling fashion. the
neckline liz slightly round the sleeves
are fiat and short or made into small
puffs finished with ruffles. Often the
dressmaker attaches a streaming ribbon
In some vivid color that catches the at
tention. IL Is often longer than the
frock. Red. bright and primitive. is the
ribbon most frequently chosen. 1t is put
on the sleeves or at the back of the neck.
There Is no attempt to band this En-
pire frock into the little boy under the
arms. The fabric falls in straight
line from start to finish.
The tailored frock for the street is
another new invention OF the dress
makers for the juvenile. The youngster
is supposed TO wear II when she arrives
at eight years. II Is of blue serge-a
fabric which was discarded for children
many years since. To-day IL Is fashioned
into a miniature edition of the pleated
chemIse frock worn by half the women
of America. The long waist dlssolves
into the straight flat pleating in order
that the straight line may not be broken.
and there is narrow girdle on this one
made of the material. which does not
confine the figure.
The jacket is square garment reach
ing nearly to the knees and not meeting
In front There are revers which are
bound with colored braid to match the
other edges The French children wear
a small red rose pinned on the side Of
the bodice. with this street suit they
wear Oxford ties OF beige or gray suede
with black patent leather trimmings and
flat heels.
Other serge frocks are braided with
soutache in a fine pattern, one that will
not overwhelm the little figure. Chain
cite stitching Is preferred because of It's
softness.
The small boy does not permit the
small girl to carry away all the honors
OF this colorful and revolutionary sea-
son. He wears tiny breeches and Jackets

Special Despatch to THE NEW YORK HERALD.
Hot SPRINGS. Va, May 14-The week
has been very active socially both in
the Homestead and in the cottage col
ony. There were many dinners and
luncheon parties of more than ordinary
interest The largest event Of the week
was the luncheon given at Roseloe by
Baron and Baroness Rosenkrantz. Those
entertained We're Mr.. and Mrs George

popularity are Chinese silks in white

Nile green and lilac. The latter color
Is unusual for children, but II has made
headWay this season. The one shade
that failed OF success is black. In a
season when children take all fashions
away from their elders, or the other
way around. 1t is strange that the
dominant color adopted by the women
ras been refused by the child. The
French are not so opposed TO the use
or 1t as we are. but they have made
black artistic, as rule. whereas We
have used 1t more for economy and for
mourning.
No mother OF the day can give con-
sideration to a skirt OF the usual length.
for IL she falls TO adopt the brevity OF
the new garments she puts her child
INTO the class where her conspicuous
difference from the others causes her

of the unself-consciousnes of children
knows not whereof he speaks. As a
rule they are full Of self-small bundles
of egoism.
1t is not necessary to cut the one
piece frock just TO the knees; 1t must
escape them altogether. The more leg
The better is the argument The OBJ
server OF modern dress may Insist that
this rule holds good among all women
to. day. except those In the savage coun-
tries.
AS a. child's legs do not move the re-
formers to protest. tho only condition
that stands against the adoption OF these
revolutionary clothes Is the prejudice OF
the mother. She may be squeamish. she
may consider the fashion has been car
ried to absurd lengths. After all. in the
most extreme OF these garments there Is
very little below the hips. Tiny
breechee, full and with fine ruffies, are
worn beneath the frocks; they are not

run with fine lace. These little bits OF
undercothes are attached to slim pin

The checked ginghams are used also
for these straight chemise frocks, which
often do not extend within reasonable

with the fashions the adults borrowed
from northern Africa and which resulted

The Aldermanic president declared
that the city is not carrying out its
contract made with the Fradus Con-
tracing Company Inc, on June "a,
1921,
Major La Guardia pointed gu. that
each time within three CIR four years
that an attempt has been made to GUST
Rodgers & Haggerty in order to break
a monopoly in their line and save the
city money, the Street Cleaning Depart

The June contract was awarded TO the
Fradus Company at 1919 per scow, the
lowest bid. Rodgers & Haggerty were
third lowest bidder at $23975 per
scow

ticular firm has had monopoly of this

Guardia, "and it has cost the city
enormous sums of money. Now that we
have found contractor where the city

The baby was unconscious and barely

warships, which on Friday were re-
ported to have been withdrawn from

though no explanation was given for
their return, it was presumed the YES
