WOMAN’S PAGE." ‘Midsummer Reactions in Fashions BY MARY Midsummer might truthfully be called the season of reactions. New fashions are readily accepted in Spring and early Summer and many of the best of them are overpopularized. There are many new fashions that have run their course, 80 far as the best-dressed women are THIS SPORTS DRESS OF CHINESE SILK DAMASK 1S MADE WITH LONG SLEEVES AND A HIGH| BACK FOR THE WOMAN WHO | PREFERS NOT TO BECOME SUN- | BURNED. concerned, before the 1st of August MARSHALL. into favor in the Spring, have already begun to look a little trite. Many of them still look charming, but they have lost something of their first strong ap- peal. And that is why, as an example of one of the midseason réactions, there are new dresses made of solid-colored materials—pastel shades as well as darker colors—that give an inkling of the new color fashions for "Autumn. Another reaction that has made it- seIf apparent is that in favor of long- sleeved sports dresses. There really are women who do not choose to become tanned like berri®s, and other women who, having acquired an even coat of tan, do not care to have it become any deeper in hue. For these women there are new sports dresses made with long sleeves and high-cut backs. There are new camisoles made to be worn under light dresses that do not need full-length slips. These camisoles | fasten in the back and are very easy tu make.

A WASHINGTON DAYBOOK BY HERBERT N 1889 a printer's devil in the com- posing room of the Atlantic Re- view, Atlantic City's oldest newspaper, | heard that an advertising agency down | the street needed an office boy to run errands and sweep floors. He decided to apply for the job. For | the next two years the youth showed such keen interest in his work and such aptitude for it that he attracted the attention of every one connected | with the firm. Then the head of the agency died. “This same youth, now 19, was told that | the whole outfit could be bought for $600. He hur- ried to an old friend and borrowed $600, came back and bought the business. He 1s now many times a millionaire. This, in brief, is the story of Sen- ator Walter Edge of New Jersey, mentioned as this country's next Ambassador to France, succeeding the late Myron T. Herrick. Walter Edge began his political career | Just as he started out in business—as | an apprentice. His first public office | was that of journal clerk in the New Jersey Senate. Later he was made sec- retary of that body. In 1909 he was elected a member of the Assembly and enjoyed the distinc- tion of serving_as Republican leader his first year. In 1910 he won a seat in the State Senate and two years later i was elected majority leader of that | body. In 1916 Edge was out for governor and won by a plurality of more than 69,000 votes. In 1918 he won the seat of the late United States Senator Wil- Jiam Hughes. In 1924 he was returned | o Washington with a plurality of 276,- | 896 voles. | And in the meantime he was push- | ing his advertising agency. first to New | York, then to London, Paris, Berlin and | elsewhere. He had also acquired the Press and Union, two powerful news- papers in Atlantic City. | At the age of 55 Senator Edge devotes almost all of his time to public service. His two newspapers in Atlantic City | are owned and operated by three of his former secretaries. His advertising agencies are now in the hands of men who have been faithful in his employ. He retains only the agency at Atlantic City, which he bought on the borrowed $600. ‘When he is in Washington he is one of the hardest working men on Capitol Hill. But when he is not busy he plays with the same zest and enthusiasm. Every year, in November, he goes to Thomasville, Ga., to hunt. There he stays until a day or two befcre the regular session of Congress opens. He plays golf some, but is not an enthu- slast. He enjoys swimming. He has been married twice.

The two had a little difficulty in getting acquainted Paulina fcund that at times her gov- erness was hard on_her nerves. Once the gover- ness annoyed her particularly. Paul- ina looked at her intently and a bit severely, and then said: “You know, you are from New England, but sometimes I think you are so dumb that you wouldn't recognize beans in a pot with the lid off.” But despite Paulina’s precocity, she is in every way a charming and de- lightful child. She enjoys the things her age. One_of her favorite playmates is little Betty Moffett, daughter of Ad- miral Willlam A. Moffett. chairman of the national advisory committee for aeronautics.

CRAIG. July 23, 1863.—A decree for the con- demnation of the property of Dr. A. Y. P. Garnett was gran here today by Judge Wylle in the District Court, on the ground that Dr. Garnett is an alien enemy within the meaning of the con- fiscation act, recently passed by Con- gress with respect to persons who have joined the rebellion of the Southern States. The judge remarked that this was a case of very great importance, as it was the first of its kind to be argued before this court. The recent act of Congress, Judge Wylle declared, did not, as generally supposed, treat the inhabitants of the Confederate States as traitors, but as | alien enemies, and in that point of view, by the of nations, their prop+ erty of every description is liable to forfeiture and alienation to the use of the Federal Government. He declared that there is no distinction between personal property and real estate in this act, nor does the Constitution, as some suppose, forbid the absolute forfeiture of real estate. But he pointed out that a joint reso- lution, adopted by Congress on the same day that the confiscation act was passed, provided that, in a spirit of kindness, the Government would con- fiscate the real estate of the rebels only during their lifetime. Judge Wylie said he was bound by that resolution and, therefore. con- demned the real estate of Dr. Garnett during the owner's lifetime, and his personal property absolutely. —He re- ferred to many authorities, including acts of the Maryland and Pennsylvania Assemblies, confiscating absolutely the | praperty of Americans who remained loyal to the British crown during the Revolutionary War. After the decision had been rendered in this case, the District attorney asked permission to dispose of some 20 other cases which depended on the same | principles. The request was granted and decrees of condemnation were then ordered in the cases of the follow- ing persons: Thomas D. Allen, Francis Hanna, E. A. Pollard, Charles S. Wal lach, Cornelius Boyle, French Forrest, John N. Maffitt, C. W. C. Dunington, Martin L. Smith, Samuel Lee, Henry B. Tyler. William F. Phillips, C. W. Haven- ner, Lavinia Boyle and Samuel L. Lewis. The case of Willlam Shields was continued until the next term of court, when testimony will be taken, since Mr. Shields has filed® an answer to the charge. He is said to be now with the | British consul in Baltimore. For a similar reason, the case of Dr. James J Warring also was continued. °- = | Lovmg Kindness o— ————— —0 I can hear Aunt Julia scream. know such things are barred!

I was afraid_he might hurt himself with these, so I got together some things which I knew could not harm him. I got several sheets of heavy cardboard, such as is used in making boxes, re- trieved a stock of used phonograph needles and bought him a tiny saw that would really cut. At first I drew the things for him that he wished to make. Later he learned to do that for himself, and now he is 6 years old and is making things from real wood and really turns out some pretty cred- itable stuff, due, I think, to this early training.

A good many childless mothers blame their lack of family on & corresponding lack of the wherewithal to raise a fam- ily. We feel this excuse is sometimes far fetched. The amount of money required to provide healthy surround- ings and proper physical care for & child is not great. Nor does it tax one’s income greatly to put a little something aside regularly for the child’s future, either in the form of savings or insurance. In a few homes it is simply a ques- tion of whether one prefers to be rich in things like luxurious furnishings, poodle gogs and extravagant bric-a- brac. In other homes it is a question of intelligent handling of funds. Just how much money is required to raise a family we are frank to admit we don't know. We know mothers rals- ing fair sized families on $3,000 a year and other mothers protesting they can- not have a family on only $5,000 a year. Sometimes women plead that their “high standards of living” preclude a family on their present incomes. By high standard of living they mean ex- gnsive clothes, plenty of jewels, ex- nsive and expensive entertaining and like costs.

There is an ever-growing bellef that the only child is a much-to-be-pitied and pro- tected creature. All that is need to correct the situation is a real apprecia- tion of the “standards of living.” We should not place the blame on money if the money is available for us to spend as we choose. We should not use money as an excuse when selfish- ness or other “poverties” are at fault. The cost of having a family must be reckoned in things other than money— in fewer shows and parties, in shorter vacations, in less expensive clothes and the like. We do not have to count our pennies to determine whether we can afford a family—we need only take an inventory of our soul.

Burely there exists no thinking parent’ but was horrified at the recent trial which ended in the conviction of a 6- {Ielr-old child for murder and sentenced im to 15 years in a reformatory. Fif- teen formative, not reformative, years these would be, in which this child would emerge unable to adjust himself to life or living conditions, a potential criminal and probably a degenerate. Had this boy been familiar with the use of a shotgun from having seen it in frequent use? Had ‘he ever heard his perents, even in jest, remark that they were 50 angry they could kill some one (and who hasn’t been guilty of such far-fetched remarks which one expects to be regarded with humor?) Then who can be blamed if the child in a moment of anger lives up to this idea? ‘What about the responsibility of the parent who left a led shotgun within easy reach of a 6-year-old child? We are not in this sad affair over- looking the bereaved parents. They deserve our utmost sympathy, but surely they would not feel that the loss of their child could be compensated for by depriving another child of freedom and happiness. He is loaded down as it is. He may laugh and play happily now, unaware of the currents around him, but as he grows into a sense of responsibility this tragedy will leave on him a mark that no one can erase. This is what he will have to bear, and no Jjury-imposed sentence can compare with it in future misery and futile self- accusations. This child has “just outgrown the period when he actually did not know the difference between morning and aft- ernoon, today and tomorrow.

Heretofore he has had no such abilit; He isn't introspective enough to be able to blame himself for what happens. He is still too imagina- tive to entirely differentiate between the real and tmaginary. Only knowledge and years more of it will give him this abllity.

Happily, one feels that this verdict will probably be reversed before this is published. The horror and indigna- tion of the parents of his own com- munity and of communities far removed make the possibility of the carrying out of this sentence too remote to be con- templated seriously. Home in Good Taste BY SARA HILAND. Here it is—the tiniest little writing desk you could ever imagine, yet a very practical one. When closed it looks very much like a small screen or one of the black- boards used in the children's playroom, but when the front is dropped there is room for everything in the way of writing materials and a good-sized sur- face on which to write. This is the kind of desk that is ideal for the guest room, as it may be fold- ed up and slipped away in the closet without taking up any extra space when not in use, and it takes only a few seconds’ time to remove it and put it in position for writing. Such a tiny desk may be very easily drawn up to ‘he window. in front or an easy chair r at the side of a bed. The finish of this little desk may be in walnut, mahogany+or maple, or it might be enameled in a shade to har- monize with the furnishings already in the room. It would be effective to have the interior in a different shade from that used for the exterior. (Copyright, 1929.) Baked Trout.
