Evelyn is a truly lovely doll with great brown eyes and long, silky, brown curls. Her proud little mother, who goes to the fifth grade in the fall, beamed and held her gold- red head very high when told that her doll had won the prize for the prettlest doll, and she patted the glossy long curls with true motherly tenderness. She was also proud of the set of three pieces of geuu(llul silver furniture, with red cushions, for her prospective dollhouse. Kath- erine sald she hadn’t any dollhouse, but she was going to make one to put her furniture in. * ok kK HE second prize, which was given to the little girl having the best- dressed doll on the playground, was awarded to little Ellen de Betten- court, who is in the high first at school and lisps a little, by some of her tooth space is still vacant of its second subply of ivories. Ellen's doll had a_beautiful pink satin dress with ruffles on it—just the kind of a dress any little girl would like to find on a Christmas dolly. Ellen said that her mother carefully pressed it out so Elizabeth could be just as fresh and sweet a baby as possible out’ party. Ellen’s grew wistful a the golden ha eyes, and she “I wish she w el real baby.” y standing near, sev- eral years Ellen's senior. announced in a most scornful, matter-of-fact volce, “Aw, no, you don’t. We've got one at_our house that is real and about that size, and L tell you she is some trouble.” * ok ok ¥ ITTLE MARY BAIR, who goes to the high sixth grade in Septem- ber, won the third prize, given the cutest doll, with her quaint littls Japanese doll, which was dressed very tastefully in a black satin kimono, embroidered in orange. She had two coquettishly arranged orange chrysanthemums over her ears in true Japanese fashion. 1t was really very hard for the | judges to decide which were the dolls | 1o receive the prizes, there were So many there which were carefully and attractively fany nation- alities w " doll One litt which she had di jan peas- ant.

There was an awfully cute little Dutch doll, dressed in delft blue and white, and Hester Wriket had a the voung citizens “regular vamp.

This doll was quite one of the sensations of the program. * ¥ kX HERE were nearly 150 parents and friends of the anxious lit- tle mothers present at the doll show and the boys were not notable by their absence in spite of the fact that only one boy dared ex; {nibit a doll. He was little Leonard Lobred, who brought with him Bill, a_charmingly grotesque clown-doll dressed in blue and white. Bill wasn't Leonard's vorite doll, but his favorite much too dirty for any show, and so Bill had to substitute in Leonard's affections temiporarily. He won hon- orable mention. Leonard himselt wasn't any bigger than some of the dolls present. In fact his. legs were still so unsteady that he sat down rather abruptly several times in the course of the parade from the grove where the dolls were assembled and numbered to the pavilion. Florence Cockerille, dne of the older girls, played a march for the procession of about thirty little girls and their doll Miss Evelyn Howard of Alexandri director of the plavground, was charge of the exhibition. A large number of small hoys took the exhibition very seriously—quite ae seriously as the little girls them- selves and, although they didn’t care DD RDDDDE SOV “See ETZ and See Better” The First Glass AN ADITORIAL THE discovery of glass +% was an accident.
