HE \RST’S SUNDAY AMERICAN. ATLANTA, GA., SUNDAY. JULY 27. 1913. An Attractive Bathing Suit By MME. HAUTE MONDE B LACK watered silk parasol* are vary popular thta yaar. Tha handles are always elaborate; very often they are exc eedingly c ost • ly. Carved jade is one of the lateat materials for parasol handles and finely carved quartz inset with old paste is also much naed. And while speaking of Jade I must not neglect to sov that small bracelets of this stone are the "clou” of the moment. These little bracelets are slipped on over the wrist and two or three are worn at the same time The millinery of the present sea •on is admirably picturesque. Quan titles of tulle and lace are being used, i immense capeline shapes are com - t posed entirely of pleated tulle, cloche I shapes are covered with fine black lace. Everything Is done to obtain Old World effects. The leading milliners are haunting the famous picture gal leries of Paris In the hope of finding fresh and unexpected Ideas. It is now the fashion to open the corsages of lace and muslin gowns intended for day wear In a generous V which ends Just above the waist line Certainly, there Is a chemisette underneath, a chemisette of exqui site fine lace or of embroidered mus lin. In some cases, but this becomes more and more rare, a gulmpe of cobweb tulle Is worn. In addition the sleeves of afternoon gowns are fre quently transparent. In many cases they are exceedingly long, reaching | to the wrists and well over the hands, but they are almost always transpar ent. A one-piece «*»rge dress is useful, especially fn the mountains, where the weather U cool and the climb ing is rough. It can be made In Peter Tom style for younger women, or with a sailor collar applied to a simple, front-closed, one-piece frock for old er women. It should have a skirt with ample fullness about the ankles. This fullneas can he arranged gracefully, bo that the skirt still re tains a straight look; one of the new outing skirts ha* the fulness but toned under the side seams in the forms of tucks, which can be un buttoned when necessary. Heavv soled tan shoes, with medium heels, or white canvas shoes of substantial make are the most comfortable for climbing, and tramping, as well. THE STILES FIR Dancing Mistress’ Dreary But Beauty of Girls Stuns By ALAN DALE.' They Quit Studies for Factories, Though They Might Have More Schooling. WASHINGTON, July 26 Interest- ing because of its bearing on the tes timony as to girl*' 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 la that from one-half to three-fourths of the girls at work In factories could have had further schooling if they wanted to, or if their parent* had cared to insist on It. More Girls Leave School. The survey shows that the number of girl* between 14 and 16 years of age who leave school is constantly In creasing. In the last five years many more girls between those ag**s 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 towns of tlie country. Why did these girls leave school? Various reason* were assigned by the girls themselves. Some 3U said that they "did not like the school; could not get along with the teacher; were not promoted, or wanted to get to work.” Why Girls 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. L^ater she got $2.50 per week. Another was a girl of 16 from the eighth grade, who went to work in a cor*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 condition* such as found at Worcester emphasize the imperative need for special training of a practi cal sort 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 1f shifting, inefficient, discon tented girls that go 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 In some of the newest underwear, crepe ( ] e chine and lace are closely combined. One new style of night gown. for instance, shows a shadow- lace yoke and sleeves, with a sk1 r t of crepe de chine, edged with lace. Underbodlces, made entirely of la 'c and l* r.bon, are often attached to crepe de chine petticoats. Chemises, too, of crepe de chine, show deep insets and shoulder straps of lace.

The little dress we portray lias a foundation of gray satin, trimmed in plaid satin of gray and Geneva blue. The suit opens down the front and is trimmed in self-buttons in a double row down its full length. The deep scallops at the bottom are bound in the plaid, and in turn the scalloped swallow-tailed red- ingote of the plaid and the upper sleeve is made kimono fashion and is a continuation of the gray satin yoke which has little half- inch tucks in groups of three. The neck is cut in a modest V and is piped, yoke fashion, in the plaid. of its dnintinews.

The hem of such tunics should always be slight ly stiffened, as the whol# success of the garment depends on its outline. The skirt should be cleverly draped and very clinging, while the short tunic should stand out at the sides. The newest parasol* are either pa godas in outline, which i* to say ex aggeratedly domed; or they are al most fiat and bordered with heaw fringe*. Many of the new paras.*’* have little Jointed handle*, in the Old World style, and nearly all show large bows of velvet or satin ribbon somewhere on the handle. The Hat shapes are sometimes exquisitely em broidered in the Japanese style. Tapestry belts of this order look extremely well when worn with coat- e ® of black taffeta or black watered silk; the faded colors of the tapestry being repeated In the hat trimming* or in the embroldereiee displayed on collar or revers tightly a* posFible.

A Question of Paint Court Holds That Even Plea of Fash ion Will Not Hold if Walk- ing 16 Prevented. Special Cable to The American. PARIS. July 26.- A Paris court has decided that a dress which is too tight to walk in is worthless to the person who ordered it and need not »»♦ 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 and 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 Smith, brother of F. E. Smith, the great politician, some charming gown* 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 *ame*shade of yellow, is supplemented with a black satin bor^ der. one of Miss Brough’s dresses i* a little morning toilet of black and white bird’s-eye foulard, a strip of faspberry colored silk being let lnt t the front like a slip on a man’s coat and caught with a huge black braid motif. An evening gown of “blush rose” satin, veiled in front and behind with garnet colored ninon above blush pink and failing away In front, to show the garnet colored ninon, is an overdress of ivory mousseline de sole, embossed with gold and edged with gold bouil lon fringe, whLe the corsage .Is ivory lace. of BRIDE AT ALTAR HALTS WEDDING BECAUSE OF DRESS HARRISBURG. II.L., July 26.—In the County Clerk’s office a marriage ceremony w r as delayed two hours be cause the bride suddenly discovered she was not properly arrayed. H. R. Northup. 45, and Miss Florence Hart 4 3. both of DeKoven, Ky., applied for a license. When Justice Grigsby asked the couple to join hand*, 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 fbr me. No, indeed. It’s a bad 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 Special Cable to The American. LONDON, July 26.—They say that a gayety girl is born 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 typs. ^ T ° 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-s. Well, 1 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. AH of which U neither here nor there, except to illustrate the fact that in “The Dancing Mistress” at the Royal Adelphl Theater we see another of those things—formless, chaotic, Invertebrate and unintelli gible—that depend entirely on girls. Malone Arch Girl Setter. In this case she is “set” by T. A. E. Malone, George Edwardes’ arch est and most insinuating girl setter (he came over to New York- to eet the “sunshine girl” at the Knick erbocker Theater) to a “book” (so- called) bv 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 London 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 Tanners and Moncktons, but the fathers and mothers of the las sies. “The Dancing Mtetress,” by 50 pair* of fathers and mothers, should he 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 amount* almost to a fault. /She is pale and blonde, and thlnnish and dainty, and oh, so She seems to be yearning SOMERSET, PA., July 26.—Mrs. Mattie ('rise, 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. wistful, all the time. She looks out upon a "sea of heads” in the audience as though she were scared to «#eath, 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.

Lace inaettings are effectively used just now’ for this pur pose uYid the handwork involved is much less intricate than embroidery. Once the lace is arranged ; on the stocking the effect is gained and there remains only the careful sewing to bring a satisfactory result. In the I case of embroidery one can never l>s I so sure of the effect of handwork un- j til the pattern is far advanced and it i Is usually then too late to change j if the result is disappointing. By studying the designs of lace usod 1 for insetting in the expensive stock ings in exclusive shops It is easy to jdeiide on a model. A flight of but- j terfiies. of graduating sizes, is a de- ‘ sign worth copying, and two Van- I dykes of lace, forming a sort of hour glass design, with points meeting at the ankle.

All of which is, of course, but a pretty little illusion. Miss Dare is by no means new to the busineaa and is really self- possessed. In "The Dancing Mistress” she has one very pretty song with Jose phine Coyne. They are on ski* 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 thi* 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 into which the eventlessness of the proceeding? has plunged you, and you feel tempted to applaud. Prettir.ess No Boon. Another London favorite In “The Dancing Mistress” Is Miss Grade Leigh, a very clever and delightful little woman who Isn’t pretty for one moment, and who is therefore a positive relief. Anybody who isn’t pretty in “The Dancing Mistress” is a joy. Anybody w r ho isn’t pretty seems daring and original. A Polaire or a Mistlnguette among all these zimmering. afternoon tea damselines would be perfectly won derful. Miss Grade Leigh is a capital dancer, and Miss Grade 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 a* well that no English lassie takes it. Caumont is a clever woman, but she seems out of place In this sort of a show r . Then there is Miss El sie Spencer, who is quite nice in a subdued and col on ess London w’ay. But the pretty ones swamp the whole thing—Trixie Hillin, 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, alms 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. Mrs. S. G. Hodgson, of Peachtree, State health chairman of the Gener al Federation of Women’s Clubs, has received a letter from Mr*. S. S. Crockett, chairman of the Public Health Department of the Federation, calling 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 he held at Buffalo the last w f eek In August, and which is being supported by the General Fed eration, under the presidency of Mrs. Percy V. Pennybacker. In her letter Mrs. Crockett savsi “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 International 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 organization*: 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.
