Vis countess Helmesley, who will be a great ornament to the peerage Lady Helmesley is a daughter of the Coun tess of Warwick, whose star of pop- i ularlty has been waning, but the slender young woman Is vastly ail mired. Lady Helmesley has developed non, of the serious, socialistic tendencies of her famous mother and seems con tent to on.1oy the privileges of fash ionable life without its Intellectual In terruptions In fact, Lady Helmesley tries to prevent her mother from ex periments. such as her American lec turing tour, and Is a great comfort during her parents' retirement from the world of fashion. Cochrane Belles. One well may wonder how the Earl of Dundonald pays for ihince slippers for his much invited daughters. Ladles Margery and Cochrane, who arc belles of the present season On Monday night the two girls "did" three dances and their average for the season will be well over two hundred dames. Ladles Margery and Jean accept in vitations freely and frequently lilt to several dances on the same night, unualty ending at the Kttz Hotel.

Kaiserin, Once Careless In Dress, Now Setting Fashions By LA RACONTEUSE. New NecR-wear No woman < an afford this spring to overlook the displays of new neck wear. Indeed, no woman will want to overlook them. But what is us ually considered somewhat of an ex travagance is nothing less than econ omy this year. The woman of limited wardrobe is the very one who can af ford to indulge in, for her perhaps, an unprecedented neckwear orgy. The merest tyro at needlework cn.n, with the aid of the new collars, frills, stocks, jabots, and guimpea. trans form her old waists into perfectly presentable and decidedly becoming features of her wardrobe. An old, worn, transparent yoke and collar must go by the board, to oe sure, but it will be literally good rid dance to what has become bad rub bish. If the yoke was a shallow one 1t can be supplanted entirely by one of the wide, tlat collars to which are attached the long plisse ends. Wats's which continue to the neck may be shorn of their collars, and have i transparent lace stock, with a plisse jabot in place. Any woman of ordi nary sense can effect these changes. The. Tanaora The latest fn ah 1 enable profile is the Tan&gra figure, the costume for achieving this outline being thus de scribed: Brocaded soft silk, with crepe, canton or satin background, is being used to drape the figure with perfect disregard as to style lines* Such a gown is portrayed here, mak ing the wearer look like a Tanagra figurine vested with life. Black bro caded silk In one of the new weaves flowered with a large but indistinct pattern is apparently laid over the figure and fitted by the few' soft folds Into which the material drops, fitting to the contour of the figure. A slash makes walking possible, anti the up per part falls into the lines of the new gi rdle of disproportionate size 'that in appearing on many new Paris models. A bolero of black chiffon is fitted in deeply laid folds, with curved outline accented by round dull black buttons. Transparent sleeves uf the chiffon draped into a bishop sharped cuff vei 1 the arms, and the neck, slightly decollete, reveals a touch of white.

East Lake is wide awuke to pic nics and out-door times these days. Everybody has just naturally caught the apring-time ?*pirit, even down to uncle and the baby. Games and things are on at full swing, and the woods and fields around the Country Club arc decorated from morning to night with folks and children, girls and boys, and everybody else. It's a regular summer resort. Father has already begun to play golf in a resurrected seersucker of last summer a trifle tight. But in the Joyous enthusiasm of it all the looks of it. as usual, aren’t worry ing him any. That's his wife’s sor row. This isn't referring in any manner to the golfers who may be seen prac tically every day on the links and who are coming out in great style this year. George W. Adair is still wear ing the title of champion in score and love of the game, with Col. Ed Brown running him a close second. It has been whispered around that "the Colonel” has said that he can low when it comes to playing, but that isn’t on authority. Other Enthusiasts. Dowdell Brown, who is Just as good at tennis as he is at golf. Winter Alfriend. Milton Dargan and S. Y. Tupper are also going in for the sport, as well as W. P. Gentry, who intends to move out where he’ll be in 010**0 proximity to the fields about the first of June or a littele later. He’s building a brand spanking new- house about a quarter of a mile away from the club. Some of the golfers who are seen on the links almost daily are: Dr. John B. Derr. John Grant, Dr. Wil liam S. Goldsmith. W. R. Tichenor, John H. Porter, president of the club; E. R. Austin, J. S. Brown, Lowry Arnold, Reuben Arnold. Scott Hud son and R. P. Jones. Other leading lights of the game are: W. Joe Til- son, better known to the “boys” as “Joe”, whose principal characteristic after being a golfer is being a Bull Moose, and Thomas B. Paine, East Lake’s Mayor and general-ln-chief. A While th*» crowds go out presum ably for golf, the chef at the club hinted that the chicken and gravy was responsible for some of the con verts lie could name. AAiong the women and girls spend ing a large p^rt of their mornings at the lake now are. Mrs. Thomas B. Paine and Mrs. R. P. Jones, who live near by, as well as Miss Lida Nash, Miss Priscilla Patton and Miss Margaret Moore, who have groups of friends out to be their guests every little while. Mrs. George S. Tigner, whose husband's tall form is seen often on the links, was out one day this week with several friends en joying golf at second hand. She came in dead-tired, at the end of an event ful day. and dropped Into a big ve randa chair. Weary Walk Around Links. “I’ve been chasing Dr. Tigner til: I’m worn out,” she told the folks. “We were all so interested in watch ing the game. Rut I tell you”—with a sigh-t-“it’s strenuous work when you hqppen to be wearing French heel slippers'.” Other girls who’are frequent visi tors! to the club are, Miss Helen Thorn- and Miss Laura.Cole, both excellent swimmers; Miss Van -McKinnon, a Chattanooga girl and friend of Miss Thorn who has only made her home in Atlanta for the past year; Miss Nellie Kiser Stewart, Misses Eliza beth and Edith Dunson, and scores of others. Cold weather and thick clothes were all right for the first six months or so they lasted—but enough is a plenty. Getting into light garments after the winter time is like gradua tion day or turning butterfly all in a second. Tt’s fine to be out—free! Even the athletic fat man has felt the summertime -call, and has begun to ornament the club premises with his genial personality and ample pro portions. The commonest highlight on the general panorama is his damp handkerchief displayed, flag-fashion, from his back hip pocket. Tho lake is being disturbed by early swimmers. It's a little cold when you first wade in and the water clones up around you. but you’re all right after you take the first twenty strokes heading out for the other side and back again—if you can. The golf links and the tennis courts are looking spick-and-span, and the big porches of the club have received a new garment of light blue paint, though it’s too soft to be walked on yet. Everywhere the flowers are wide-eyed or opening, and over the slopes of the big acreage the grass has come out clean and thick. Rowing on Lake. Out in the lake you’ll probably catch fight of somebody all in white and a red sweater bent low and hap py over the oars and fairly making the water fly as she 9kids across it in a boat. The wind out at the lake is strong any time of the clock now’—but if the day happens to be a little cold it’s dandy to sit in the sunshine-— and just sit there. Occasions a week or two ago when the weather was chilly, there was a hlg fire in the club’s old-fashioned fireplace, and a crowd of girls found it great to sit around on the floor in front of It and tell stories! But days of that kind are practical ly gone nowu They’ll soon be buried end trees planted on the spot. They were routed when dozens of kiddies began going out with their nurses to test the caliber of the East Lake sand and bring home buckets full to deposit In the front yard to spade up at their leisure. Bobby, aged 14, of whom there are countless hun dreds. also had something to do with the routing. For thef past long time he has been on the spot and ever present as soon as school let out rev eling in all the joy of dusty canvas shoes and “Hi, there, throw her here! “Hot dog. that’s the stuff!” and other Special Cable to The American. PARIS, May 10.—We all heartily enjoyed the story of how the Kaiser got the best of the Kaiserin. who has always refused to have any of her dresses made in Paris, by making her a present of a beautiful Paris crea tion, which attracted universal atten tion and was greatly adrpired the first time she wore it. But those w'ho had expected that the imperial lady would be angry at the joke played upon her and read a well-deserved curtain lecture to her Lord and Master have been disap pointed. For like the sensible woman she is. the Kaiserin acknowledged the su periority of the gown over those she had worn before and she will now fol low the example of her daughter-in- law and get all her grand toilettes made here, so there will be more commissions for Miss Geraldine Far rar to execute in the future. Develops Taste for Pretty Gowns. But the joke of the Paris gown, I am told, has had much more far reaching consequences, which will tend to change the appearance of Berlin court functions altogether. For the Kaiserin. who was former ly rather indifferent to dress, has sud* denly developed a decided taste for pretty gowns and not only does she Inspect the new gowns of her ladies- in-waiting most critically, but she is trying to rob Crown Princess Cecilie of her reputation of being the best dressed lady in Berlin. As she still possesses a very fin f figure and has much more money at her disposal than her daughter-in- law there is every prospect that she may succeed. A week or two ago the Kaiserin discharged one of her older ladles-in- waiting because she insisted on dres sing in {he rather dowdy manner, to which her imperial mistress had never objected before. Asks Ambassadress to Study Fashions After a court function just after Easter the Kaiserin sent for the wife of a very wealthy foreign ambassador and in tht most friendly manner ad vised her to take a trip to Paris and pay special attention to Rue de la Paix. When the ambassadress asked the reason why. the Kaiserin explained to her that somebody had informed her that she had neglected to return her greeting when passing her in an open carriage near the Thiergarten. but the only reason why she had been impolite, she said, w$s that she had not recognized her. The lady who very well remember ed the incident and also the fact that she had Worn a very old dress on that day took the hint and two days Inter she arrived in Paris and made large purchases from several well- known modistes. “Lines” of Figure Remain. Havihg done very little but attend exhibitions of the new spring modes, to which I have received cards, al most ever since Easter, I feel that I may speak with some authority on the subject of dress for the next few months. Let me say first of all then, that we have successfully defended "the line,” if not in its most exaggerat ed then certainly in its most attrac tive form. The modistes who had hoped to bring u% back to the old ug ly deformities of dress have been badly defeated by our determination to remain slim, pretty and healthy. I am very well aware that some writers on fashiov have written that "the line” is dead but this is true only in as far as we will no longer be expected to appear like perpendicu lar streaks without any sign of bust or hips and f that our skirts are just a little less narrow than last year giving more freedom to our limbs, and slightly draped from the knee down so as to enable us to display the very pretty hosiery, which every well-dressed woman now wears.
