Seeding Hairy Vetch in Winter Oats

GIFTS FROM CZECF1S.
Dolls and Garments Are
Sent Here by Children.

THERE is an interesting collection
i of dolls and garments. sent as gifts
to girls in the United States from
the little girls of fCzechoslovakia, in the
temporary possession Of the headquar-
ters Of the Junior Red Cross division in
Washington. Three little couples Of
dolls are dressed In faithful reproduc-
tion Of the three provinces Of that
country and their holiday peasant
dress. Every stitch in the beautifully
embroidered and sewed tiny garments
was made with painstaking care by
the little girls.
The dolls are charming, and their
one unusual characteristic, aside
from their costumes. is the fact that
every one of the six IS cross-eyed.
Miss Campbell, head OF the corre-
spondence division in charge of let
ter exchange between the children in
schools Of the different countries
where this organization has units,
says 1t is the consensus of general
opinion in her Office that the dolls
must have become seasick and this
made them cross-eyed. II anything,

summer of the worlds fair at. Chi

Miss Fox spent two summers at that
school before enrolling for the regu-
