Paris Style Chats

Paris (UP).-The increasing pop- ularity of tailored suits for spring and summer wear has made all the big couturiers work feverishly to produce amusing and unusual blouses. AS most of the summer suits are in linen, piques or light weight fiannels, few silk blouses are to be seen.
 White organdy is the most pop. ular choice for tailored as well as frilly blouses. Frilly jabots. with scalloped or lact edges, run from the high necks to the waists of these blouses, which are usually made with short puffed sleeves and slightly elevated shoulders Fine tucking is used at thes houlders and at the waists and some of the or gandy blouses are tucked into square patterns which run over the entire material.
 One of these white organdy blouses is made with a deep should CT yoke trimmed with applications of small white pique flowers. The shoulders yoke, dotted with pique flowers, continues in a wide band down each sleeve and form short cuff just above the elbow. The round high neck is finished with a small ruff of plain organdy.
 Eyelet embroidery is used effec- lively for trimming of sheer linen blouses. It is inserted in bands at the neck and cuff and frequently forms wide front or shoulder yoke. Many blouses are made en- tirely of the eyelet embroidery tint ed some pastel color.
 Striped organdy is use dior axl- other which has long front vest of plain organdy trimmed with tiny buttons in the colors of the stripes. The color is plain, but is piped in the striped material.

HOME BUILDING
IN 81 DOUBLE
LAST YEAR
BY JOHN DEAN MILLIGAN
Real Estate Editor


Proof that home building in the
area around the District Of Co
lumbia is surging ahead of eX
pectation came today when it was
learned the value of residential
construction here during the first
four months Of this year more
than doubled the amount for the
corresponding period last year.
This was revealed by the F. w.
Dodge Corporation, of New York,
IN a report which shows $22,014,'
900 was expended for private hous-
ing from January through April
of 1887, while only $10,516,000
was expended II the first quarter
Of last year.
All Building Gains
The report also disclosed all
types of construction, including
public awards, increased Al per
cent on the same comparative
basis between the two years. The
1887 figure for all building is
S30,029, 900, which compares more
than favorably with the 1886 fig.
ure of $20,483,000.
During the single month of
April, 1887, the Dodge survey de-
clares, residential construction in
the Washington metropolitan
area amounted to $6,139, 900, al
most as much as the entire period
between January and April of
last year.
Private construction as whole,
including the building of homes
and all other non-public struc-
lures, rose So per cent when a
comparison is made between the
two four-month periods. In the
1887 period the figure is $23,271,-
900, while in 1886 only $14,686, 900
was reported.
Prices to Go Up
The constant upswing in build
ing here is regarded by most OBJ
servers in the realty field as a
Justification of their warning, re-
peated frequently during the last
year, that construction is rising
in volume and cost and will con-
tinue to rise"
On the basis of the record so
far, it was said in many real estate
offices, the sale prices of homes
will ascend much higher than they
are at present during the coming
two or three years.
The area covered by the Dodge
reports includes the District of
Columbia, Arlington and Fairfax
counties in Virginia, and Mont
gomery and Prince Georges colln-
ties in Maryland.

For instance, Randall Saunders, the leading baby, has 26,066 votes in the race for the regular prizes offered by The Democrat. But in the separate listing of votes for the theater awards, he will have no votes today. His standing is the same as that of any of the l0i ether babies in the Contest.
 At the end of the showing of Stella Dallas" ct Polls, all of the votes cast fer the theater prizes will be added to the standings of the contestants in the election. Thus, if Randall Saunders gets 500 votes, or 1000 votes during this period, they will Do added to his total of votes when the picture closes here.
 Prizes Open to All
 So much interest has developed in the Most Popular Baby Contest that The Democrats Contest Man. ager B particularly pleased with the special offer by Polls. It means that there are more prizes avail- able and it means that some of the contestants who have low standings until now, can share in awards.
 Also, 1t seems fitting that the prizes should be offered in connec. ton with the showing of "stella Dallas" The novel of . mothers love and sacrifice for her daugh- ter tells c story that every daugh- will want to see enacted on the screen.
