We artists are | all—I heard a woman writer say it the other day—we are all cranks. It is impossible to get along with us.

If it ever takes place, one of the country clubs adjacent to Philadel- phia will be the scene of a novel con- test which has been talked about. A ' man, who knows baseball, but never | played golf, was talking to a profes- sional golfer and remarked that the latter's pet game was at best oaly a piddling sort of affair. “Well,” said the golfer, “I'l wager .you that I can play around this 18 Army man sought the young soulD- pole course in fewer strokes than you tress.

Although practical parasols will st be made of taffeta, ilmy fabrics like chiffon lace and tulle will be preferred for decorative effects. Those of gay fabrics and colorings will be without lace or net covering, but ed, printed satins and silks which monize with so many frocks will be| popular. Stripes will be very mued! used, black and white framed with .l wide, black border, as well as pin! stripes with tiny bouquets of prim flowers flung in between.
