Imitation Fad Grows
In P opularity With
Many English Women

LONDON. P)-Everything must ilni-
tate something else, is the fashion
slogan of the Englishwoman this wear.
Coats of silk are made to look like
python skin, the newest earrings are
modelled on sleeve links, gold ieweIrv
is camouflaged to look like ribbon,
hand bags take on several different
lkenesses of animals, dolls and so on.
The new gold bracelets are arranged
in deep cuffs of fine gold in narrow
pleats, some are in tiny gold links and
others are in loops of picot-edged
gold.
The new sports coats are of woolen
material in markings to represent
zebra skin, while afternoon coats of
chiffon and marocain simulate all
the reptile skins.
Rubber fringes are something new
on evening dress, where more fringes
of every kind are seen than ever A
clever use of them is to outline the
flowers of floral design on a printed
chiffon frock.

English Children Now
In Brilliant Social
World All Their Own

LONDON. (R-The children of the
fashionable residents of Mayfair are
taking an increasing part in English
society functions, and their engage
ments are now mapped out for them
on much the same lines as those of
their debutante sisters.
The society child, clad in the
smartest miniature riding kits, meets
her small friends in fashionable Rot
ten Row on their ponies and holds a
court of her own.
School classes sometimes interrupt
their morning hours and special
dancing lessons sometimes are fitted
in. After a noon rest the small child
often has a charity matinee to at
tend, and open fetes for charity are
largely reinforced by children who
often organize such affairs them
selves.
On free afternoons the young peo-
pie have their own parties. After tea
a drive with mother or tennis coach
ing or swimming lessons are the order
until bed time, which is anywhere
from 10 until midnight.

THE Wilderness 1t is a spot en-
tirely without any formal setting,
near lake, and abounding with flow
ers during spring and summer.
''The Wilderness receives no spe-
cial attention from the royal gar
deners, and the flowers grow where
and how they will. On warm sum-
mer's day there is no more delightful
spot in London. The trees hang over

retreat that might be in the depth
of the countryside instead of the
heart of England's capital.
The queen takes great interest in
the palace garden. She possesses a

is very feminine in her passion for
beautiful flowers. Since she was a

KING GEORGES CROWN
HAS TWO GUARDIANS

LONDON. QP)-The crown worn by
King George upon occasions Of state
has two officially appointed guardians
who are directly responsible for It's
safety.
The first is the lieutenant OF the
Tower of London. This post is al
ways held by an army officer OF hlgn
rank, and all the crown jewels, nor
mally housed in the tower, are IN
his care.
The duty of the other official is to
attend and guard the crown when
ever it. is necessary to remove it from
the tower. He is the holder of a post
of long standing and is called the
Kings Bargemaster. The duties OF
Ehis guardian date back to the days
when the crown was invariably car
ried by water along the river Thames
from the tower to Westminster.
