Paris sends US this frock to show
how far skirts will go to be uneven
and irregular of hem. Without
the tunic and odd sleeves this dress
would be a plain blouse With the
tunic, which is one of the
wrapped" styles, the dress be-
comes a creation"
Navy Tricotine is the material
The wrapped tunic which is ar
ranged unevenly to give the effect
Of three tiers, is embroidered in
gray and bordered with a wido
band of American broadtail. The
neck ia outlined with a narrow
band of the broadtail.
The sleeves are an interesting
feature of the gown. They are
full and graceful with a deep cuff
Of broadtail reaching almost to the
elbow and a slash reaching from
the elbow almost to the shoulder.
They show a touch of embroidery
also. The belt is of plain cloth re-
lieyed by two large beaded buttons
at one side.

they are fast becoming credit to
this town. and. being composed OF
young men having the asset OF
learning now at their command
that will at each rehearsal be In
stIIIed in their brain that time
should not eradicate. but will form
n peuculeous that will give them
more knowledge of this art and In
the end they will he credit to this
town, themselves and to the COM
munity.
We do not state this on account
Of the leader being a relation OF
ours. We merely give credit where
credit Is due. We are not ashamed

YOUR FIRST PUPPY LOVE.

Dear Bill p: For some reason
there comes to my mind ny first
case of puppy loue. We Were in
the fifth grade and she sat IN
roW +, seat s. / had it quite
bad. used to spend every penny
/ could get my hands on buying
candy to divide with her. I
thought she Wds heaven itself,
but zoe had some words one day
because she acted sWeet toWdrd
another felloW aUith curly hair.
She stuck her tongue out at me,
and it Wds all 0ver.
The Old Column is such
great place for the human things
of our lives that it occurs to me
the readers and contributors
might find some pleasure recall
ing their first or second cases
of puppy Love and hoU it turned
out. So give 'em a chance to tell
their stories and then print them,
please.

The Washington times., 1922-12-31

~ nee there was a gentleman
Of the deepest dye who was
~ all out Of kelter. lie felt
like the Symptoms on the out
side of a Bottle. He looked like
the Picture you see in the AL.
manac entitled. Before Taking"
When his Liver was striking
back at him he had IA Complexion
suggesting an Alligator Pear.
He could see little Balloons
drifting about in the deep-blue
Ether. His Tummy told him
that some one had moved in and
was giving a Chafing-Dish Party.
This poor. stricken Gloomer
had time-tabled himself all over
the Universe, trying to connect
up with a Climate that would
put him on his Feet again.
He had de.luxed himself to
remote Spots that were supplied
with Steam Heat and French
Cooking. together with Wines,
Liquors, and Cigars but no mat
ter what the Altitude or the Re.
lative Humidity, he felt discourag.
ed every Morning when he awoke
and remembered that presently he
would have to rally his Vital
Forces and walk all the way to
the Tub.
1t was too bad that q Club
man, SO eminent Socially, should
be thus shot to Rags. When one
with a spending possibility of
81 Minute is told by a Special
ist to drink plenty of Hot Water,
the Words seem almost Ironic.
To show you how he worked at
recouping his Health, once he
spent a whole Summer in Merrie
England. He had bee. told by
a Globe.Trotter that One lodging
within mile of Trafalgar Square
could hoist unlimited Scotch and
yet sidestep the feeling of Re.
morse.
The Explanation offered by
members of the Royal Alcoholic
Society is that the normal state
of Melancholy is such that even a
case of Willies merely blends I'm
with the surrounding Drabness.
He learned to like the Smoky
Taste and could even take it
warm. but still he felt Rocky,
and up to P. NJ. was only about
80 per cent. Human. One even
ing he heard about the wonderful
Vim Ordinaire of Sunny France.
He was told that the Peasants
who irrigated themselves with
a brunette Fluid resembling di.
luted Ink were simply staggering
with Health.
So he went motoring in the
Grape District and played Claret
both ways from the Middle.
Every time the Petrol Chariot
pulled up in front OF Brr sseric.
he would call for Flagon OF
some rare old Vintage squeezed
out the day before
The Washington times., 1922-12-31

into the drawing room to the nut.
tering Of maidenly hearts.
Some are found out-but the
majority escape detection. These
royal four-flushers are not skilled
in deception. They are recruited
from the ranks Of the illiterate,
which makes It all the more lu-
dicrous.
Back in 1912. a spurious young
nobleman used to accompany q
social leader in her coach and
four as she trumpeted her way
down Fifth avenue In the late
afternoon. He would toss a wink
at the uniformed doorman in front
Of a jewelry establishment. The
doorman was his father.
I'd like to see a pseudo duke
put 1t over the folks back in my
home town. They don't go in
much for royalty back there
They are getting so they chase
lightning rod agents the moment
they step on the depot platform.
Now and then-perhaps every
twenty years-a Walingford leaves
