A one-piece «erge dress is useful

They Quit Studies for Factories,
Though They Might Have
More Schooling.
WASHINGTON, July -6 Interest
ing because of its bearing on the tes
timony as to girls’ employment re
cently Investigated by the Illinois
Senatorial “White Slave” Committee
ie a bulletin just issued by the Bu
reau of Education
It Is written after a careful study
of trade and labor conditions among
girls in Worcester, Mass., preliminary
to the establishment of a trade school
for girls The conclusion reached Is
that from one-half lo three-fourths of
the girls at work In factories could
have had further schooling if they
wanted to. or if their parents had
cared to insist on it.
More G>rls Leave School.
The survey shows that the number
of girls between 14 and Hi years of
age who leave school Is constantly in-
< teasing. In the last five years many
more girls between those ages left the
Worcester schools than can be ac
counted. for by Increase In the popu
lation. Only about 17 per cent of
them , had finished the grammar
schools; most of them left in the sixth
and seventh years. Worcester is
taken as a fair index of any of the
manufacturing towuis of the country.
Why did these girls leave school?
Various reasons were assigned by the
gir!s themselves. Some 30 said that
they “did not like the school; could
not get along with the teacher; were
not promoted, or w'anted to get to
w ork.”
Why G'rJs Quit Studies.
Two were working to help pay for a
piano. One of these was a cash girl
of 14 years who had left the ninth
grade to go to work In a department
store for $2. I.ater she got $2.30 per
week. Another was a giri of 15 from
the eighth grade, who went to work
in a cors’et factory for $1 and rose to
$4.82 per week. Still another girl was
taking music lessons and contributing
to the payments for a piano.
In the opinion of the Board of Edu
cation conditions such as found at
Worcester mphasize the imperative
need for special training of a practi
cal soil for girls between 13 and 15.
In the main the girls left school sim
ply because they disliked the school
work.
Not getting the kind of training
they might have liked and would have
profited by, they blindly joined the
army if shifting., inefficient, discon-
tented girls that from one monot
onous factory task to another, and,
because of their lack of training,
rarely rise above the class of low-
paid, unskilled workers.
Skirt Too Tight Is
Ruled Worthless
Court Holds That Even Plea of Fash
ion Will Not Hold if Walk
ing Is Prevented.
Special Cable to The American.
PARIS. July 26. A Paris court has
decided that a dress which is too
i tJit to walk in is worthless to the
person who ordered it and need not
be paid for.
Last year Mrs. Price, an American
resident of Paris, had a dress made,
the price of which was $75. When the
dress was delivered she refused to
take it because she could not walk in
it. The dressmaker summoned her for
the money, and refused to alter the
dress because tight skirts were fash
ionable.
Mrs. Price brought a counter-ac
tion and lost it, appealed ami has now
won her appeal with costs.
Miss Mary Forbes Wears Charm
ing Gowns in New Farce of
Harold Smith.
Special Cable to The American.
LONDON, July 26.—Society folk in
variably look to the stage for “ad
vance fashions.” In the new farce
written by Harold Hmlth, brother of
F. E. Smith, the great politician, some
charming gowns are worn. Miss Mary
Forbes, in act one, wears a simple
mauve frock, with touches of black
at the neck and waist, and a turn
over collar of lace.
And one of her gowns is of white
silk, with which she wears a short,
knitted tiger yellow coat, striped with
black. A Neapolitan hat of knitted
silk, in the same shade of yellow, is
supplemented with a black satin bor
der.
< >ne of Miss Brough's dresses Is a
little morning toilet of black ?nJ
white bird's-eye foulard, a strip of
raspberry colored silk being let inti
th** front like a slip on a man’s coat
and caught with a huge black braid
motif.
An* evening gown of “blush ros ■ '
satin, veiled in front and behind with
garnet colored ninon above blush pink
and falling a way in front, to show the
garnet colored ninon, is an overdress
of ivory mousseline de soie, embossed
with gold and edged with gold bouil
lon fringe, whi*e the corsage is of
Ivory lace.
BRIDE AT ALTAR HALTS
WEDDING BECAUSE OF DRESS
HARRISBURG. ILL., July 26— In
the Uounty Clerk’s office a marriage
ceremony was delayed two hours be
cause the bride suddenly discovered
she was not properly arrayed. H. R.
Northup. 45, and Miss Florence Hart.
43, both of DeKoven, Ky., applied
for a license.
When Justice Grigsby asked the
couple to Join hands’, the bride dis
covered she had on a black 'skirt. She
threw up her hands and exclaimed:
“There is nothing stirring Just yet.
No marrying in black for me. No,
Indeed. It’s % a had omen, and I don’t
want to start off bad.”
They left the courthouse and two
hours later they returned, the bride
dressed in white, and the waiting jus
tice performed the ceremony.
WOMAN, WHO NEVER WORE
HAT, NOW 100 YEARS OLD
SOMERSET, PA.. July 26.—Mrs.
Mattie Crise, who became 100 years
old recently, has always lived in the
same place, and in her 100 years nev
er saw a railroad train, street car or
a telephone. She never wore a hat,
a knitted hood taking its place.
that a gayety girl is bom every
minute, and I don’t doubt It. Also(
I don’t doubt that “Governor”
George Edwardes has need for
twice as* many as nature supplies.
You know exactly the style he
wants—the gentle, purring, listless,
lissome, Edna May-like, languid,
delicate, wistful, pensive, reluctant
and Christmas card type. No other
type goes in London.
’ The average American type Is not
at all popular. Sometimes some
fervid critic and impassioned re
viewer asserts that she i».. ^ e "» *
assert distinctly—she isn t. She
must conform to the above require
ments. "The pink lady” sirens, for
instance, were very harshly criti
cised for being loud, not reluctant.
All of which 1* neither here nor
there, except to illustrate the fact
that in “The Dancing Mistress” at
the Royal Adelphi Theater we see
another of those things—formless,
chaotic, invertebrate and unintelli
gible—that depend entirely on girls.
Malone Arch Girl Setter.
In this cuse she is “set” by T. A.
E. Malone. George Edwardes' arch-
e.st and most insinuating girl setter
(he came over to New York to
set the “sunshine girl” at the Knick
erbocker Theater) to a “book” (so-
called) by James Tanner, to lyrics
(alleged) by Adrian Ross and Percy
Greenback, and to music not at all
up to the usual standard of that de
lightful tune manipulator, Lionel
Monckton.
It doesn’t matter in the least.
“The Dancing Mistress” may be as
dull as ditch water (which it Is. and
the comparison Is rough on the vi
vacity of ditch water); as incom
prehensible as a Sanskrit legend,
and as lacking in humor as a comic
weekly, but It Is a success for all
that. It is so beautifully girled in all
the dresses of the wardrobe.
It has girl at a “finishing” school
near Brighton; It has girl at a
“grand” hotel in Switzerland: it has
girl at a swagger I^ondon hotel.
There you are. It seems to me that
the authors of these London musi
cal comedies (nearly all of them
exactly and positively alike) are not
the Tanner® and Moncktons, but
the fathers and mothers of the las
sies. “The Dancing Mistress,” by
50 pairs of fathers and # mothers,
should be the line on the program,
by rights.
Miss Dare Much Postc*rded.
The leading girl at the Adelphi
now is little Phyllis Dare, who has
taken the place of Gertie Millar.
Gertie has been switched to Daily’s,
and of her more anon, and some
other time. Little Miss Dare, who
is very much postal-carded, is al
most terribly pretty.
Her prettiness amounts almost to
a fault. She is pale and blonde, and
thinnish and dainty, and oh, so
wistful. She seems to be yearning
all the time.
She looks out upon a “sea of
heads” in the audience as though
she were scared to <eeath, as though
she were saying. “Oh, please be
good to your little Phyllis, for she
is such a timid little puss."
Sometimes this is very effective.
M all depends upon your mood—
sometimes it is very irritating. You
feel that if you opera-glassed her
too severely she would swoon be-
Miss Dare Is by no means new to
the business and is really self-
possessed.
In “The Dancing Mistress” she
has one very pretty song with Jose
phine Coyne. They are on skis in
Switzerland, and of course you
know what a ski is. If you don’t
I’ll tell that it is a sort of elon
gated skate. Little Phyllis and Jo
sephine Coyne do this remarkably
well. It is one of the very, very few
things In "The Dancing Mistress”
that are worth while. You wake* up
for a minute or two from the deadly
apathy jnto which the eventlessness
of the proceedings has plunged you,
and you fee! tempted to applaud.
Prettiness No Boon.
Another London favorite in “The
Dancing Mistress” Is Miss Gracie
Leigh, a very clever and delightful
little woman who Isn’t pretty for
one moment, and who i.® therefore a
positive relief. Anybody who isn’t
pretty in “The Dancing Mistress” is
& joy. Anybody who isn’t pretty
seems daring and original.
A Polalre or a Mistinguette among
all these zimmering. afternoon tea
damselines would be perfectly won
derful.
Miss Gracie Leigh is a capital
dancer, and Miss Gracie Leigh has a
sense of humor. She has a Scotch
dance to offer that—like the ski
number mentioned above—rouses
you from your torpor.
A very plump Frenchwoman, pro
grammed as Mile. M. Caumont,
works so hard that she almost fa
tigues. She is relied upon for comedy,
and she is merciless in her efforts to
secure it. Her role is not at all a
funny one, and not even a pretty
one, so it is just as well that no
English lassie takes it.
Caumont is a clever woman, but
she .seems out of place in this sort
of a show. Then there is Miss El
sie Spencer, who is quite nice in a
subdued and coloness London way.
But the pretty ones swamp the
whole thing—Trixie Hill in, and
Gladys Kiorton, and Dorothy Dev-
ers and Dorothy Laim. and Isobel
Elsom. and Kathleen Vincut, and
Gypsy O’Brien—ad lib.
“The Dancing Mistress.” I fancy,
aims at “The Quaker Girl." but it is
really nothing of the sort—nothing
of any sort. It is a beautifully
staged, girled and appointed blank.
Members Are Urged to Elect
Delegates to International
Congress on Hygiene.
Mr®. S. G. Hodgson, of Peachtree,
State health chairman of the Gener
al Federation of Women’s Clubs, has
received a letter from Mrs. S. S.
Crockett, chairman of the Public
Health Department of the Federation,
railing attention to the great service
of the clubwomen of America in help
ing to make a success of the fourth
International Congress on School Hy
giene, which is to be held at Buffalo
the last week in August, and which is
being supported by the General Fed
eration, under the presidency of Mrs.
Percy V. Pennybacker.
In her lette.r Mrs. Crockett says:
"The public health committee of the
General Federation of Women's
Clubs suggests that women’s organi
zations generally shall endeavor to
take advantage of the Internationa^
School Hygiene Congress at Buffalo
In August, so that in their respective
communities new interest may be
awakened because of this great in
ternational meeting. Please remem
ber that all those who attend this
congress will be furnished with the
printed proceedings—a veritable li
brary of scientific information on the
subject.”
The suggestion offered by Mrs
Crockett is that the clubwomen of
this State urge the appointment * of
delegates to the Buffalo congress from
the following organizations: School
boards, health boards, boards of trade,
school improvement associations, pub
lic educational associations, parent-
teachers’ associations and others.
Mrs. Crockett further urges that
each school, college, club and public
library subscribe to membership in
the congress, in order to secure the
volume of proceedings.

It would be a difficult task to give
even a slight summary of the con
trasting styles that are in fashion
this summer, but if you have clothes
to make, it is well for you to know
that your day frocks may have tulle
collars to the ears or a V-shaped dec-
olletage to the bust, full elbow slew*
or long mousquetaire ones, a short
skirt, or one that hangs Japanese
fashion, for three inches on the tlo >r
You may xvear a girdle from hip to
bust, or a one-inch leather belt, th *
skirt may be draped up in the back
and doxx n in the front, or the other
way around; and yet, notwithstand
ing the luxitx of styles there are cer
tain ways of doing th‘ngs that male-'
every gow n right and another way
xx hich makes them xxrong.
• * •
The variety in waistcoats is very
satisfying to the woman who can n.«
xx ear the masculine type. They are
made of satin brocade, of Oriental
I irepe, of Chinese and Japanese em
broidery. of striped silk, of flowered
. taffeta and figured rreru Some niv

las such when the coat is removed.

j waist w ith a narrow girdle of ma*e-
j rial or contrasting velvet ribbon, and
there Is a breast pocket which often
holds a small handkerchief with a
i small colored border.
A Question of
Paint
To paint or not to paint, is the
question all women over thirty years
I of age are up against noxv. The wo*
! man who mak**s up is so numer
ous that a natural complexion which
has stood the stress of thirty-odd
summers is apt to look worse than

Tor Porch Tables
One of the little annoyances which
i pester the summer housewife as soon
as she gets her porch furniture m
place is the maddening way the table
covers glow gayly around.
They are always getting rumpled
even if they are xveighted with books
or flower vases. In fact, the last state
»>f the woman who puts a floxxer vase
on such a table cover is likely to be
wor e than the first; fur in the first
really snappy breeze that comes
along, cover, vase, flowers and all go
by the board.
This wanderlust is not confined to
the table covers, either. The morning
paper satis off. not merely thre-*
sheets in the wind, but the whole
tumultuous edition Fancy work
goes, too in fact, wherever ocean
breezes blow or mountain gusts sweep
by, this problem of anchoring things
•o the porch table is a/pressing one.
And yet it has been solved. One
an bux a. little ni ket-plated spring
arrangement that will effectually hold
a cover In its place. Its usefulness
• an be extended to include papers or
other articles not too thick. The
more bulky ones won’t blow off, any
way.
Lace and Stock
ing s
For summer fancy work the girl
with more time than money might
undertake to ornament a few pairs
of silk stockings. Lace insettings are
effectively used just now for this pur
pose and the handwork involved is
much less intricate than embroiders.
Once the lace is arranged on the
stocking tiie effect is gained and there
remains only the careful sewing to
bring a satisfactory result. In the
case of embroidery one can never
so sure of the effect of handwork un
til the pattein is far advanced and it
is usually then too late to change
if the result is disappointing.
By studying the designs of lace used
for Insetting in the expensive stock
ings in exclusive shops it is easy \o
decide on a model. A flight of but
terflies. of graduating sizes, is a de
sign worth copying, and two Van
dykes of lace, forming a sort of hour
glass design, xxith points meeting
at the ankle, is another effective ar
rangement quite within the possibil
ities of the home worker.
Any lac** showing a design that
can be easily cut out and applied is
appropriate for insetting in sila
stockings.
