Eustis can't see it. If there’s any one who needs a chance more than the New York boy, or who will make better use of it when he gets it, Mrs. Eustis hasn’'t yet discovered that person. “I believe,” she has just made her public confession of faith, ‘“that ninety-nine boys out of a hundred can be developed into something worth while if they are brought un- der the right sort of influence.” Which is one of the reasons why I wanted to hear more from Mrs. Eustis. The other reason is that she is an unusually interesting person. A prominent member of ‘‘Society” with a capital S, quoted, as well as of society, unquoted, lower case ini- | tial, she has discovered that a life of nothing but play is rather a bore, after all. So she has gone in for philanthropy, politics and a profes- sion, in order to make sure of always having something interesting to do. Just now she is one of the most enthusiastic members of the Wom- en’s Committee, which is helping a hundred financiers to raise $250,000 for the Newsboys' Home Club build- ing fund. As vice-president of the Women’s National Wilson and Mar- shall Committee she helped elect President Wilson in 1912. She has also conducted an exhaustive inves- tigation of city markets and the higher cost of living, And all the time she is managing a delightful studio for home decoration at No. 13 East Fortieth street. “I believe in boys' rights,” she said. “And there are three rights which every boy in New York should enjoy. He should have a chance to develop healthfully his growing body; he should be given good food for his busy brain, and his charac- ter should be subjected to influences that are in no sense ‘goody-goody,’ but that do make for a clean, whole- some, vigorous manliness. “Now where and how in present conditions can many a New York youngster make use of these natural rights?” Mrs. Eustis continued earnestly. She had been examining {samples of blue and green chintz, | evocative of sea breeze swept piazzes, but the delicately toned bits were now fallen unheeded beside her. “The boy who can play medicine ball in a gymnasium won't be throw. ing stones at somebody's window," she declared.’“If he and his friends are encouraged to form a debating society or a dramatic club, they won't organize a gang for sneak- thievery or blackmail. The boy who is given access to good books and to evening classes in practical subjects will seek self advancement along legitimate lines, instead of leaguing his restless, ambitious self with the forces that make for disorder ™ ———— For a Nonskid Stepladder.

The institution is to build a big new field at 242d street and Van Cort- landt Parkway The location of the property makes it easily accessible from all points of Greater New Cork and it is probable that many great intercollegiate contests will take place on the field. A large plot of fifteen acyes leaves ample ground for a fine stadium and gymnasium, in addition to the college buildings, Johnny Ray, the clever Pittsburgh featherweight, is matched to fight Barney McGuire of Johnstown at the latter’s home tonight. McGuire has whipped every man the Johnstown promoters have brought in, but in Ray he will meet one of the clever- est little fellows in the country. The bout is scheduled to go ten rounds, at 133 pounds. Benny Kauff, who recently made a vain leap from the Tip Tops to the Giants, may find a final landing SIMPLE FROCKS FOR DISCRIM- INATING TASTES It is promised that by next fall, fashions will have returned to the normal. But who knows? There is nothing so fickle as a promise from Dame Fashion, yet the tendency of .jadvanced styles is towards greater simplicity. A medium has about been struck between the plain and ithe elaborate, the bizzarre and ultra- conservative. The imagination no longer runs riot, but is subdued by much thought and a true sense of the artistic, s mite, T One-piece frocks according to the latest dictates of fashion, should have straight gthered skirts stitched to short waisted blouses with a gauged ‘heading. Instead of the wide {girdle there is a narrow belt or fold !of contrasting material and this Is usually repeated at the bottom of the skirt where it is used as a straight rhem or a cuff. The gathered skirt, {too, has attained considerable status and is sure to be among the modes that will pass into another season. IAnor all is nothing more graceful ‘than a closely plaited, well hung {skirt and the new designs are suit- |a|b|n to development in all | of the smart materials. Shirt waists for summer wear |have taken on a somewhat mannish appearance because of the predomi- nance of suspender effects There are many frills and furbelows which may be added, however, to give them the feminine appearance which is essential to good taste. The Quaker collar is a new arrival in the world of fashion, being shown with the ac- cessories of midsummer dress. 0Ot is very deep, rather an extended ver- sion of the Dickens or Eton model, and is made of closely woven linen that “holds” starch well. Among the new frocks that follow Victorian lines at a very discreet certain con- modishness distance, achieving a servatism along with thosge built up of the crisp little checked and striped taffetas that have always been classed as summer silks are especially interesting. These silks though they have never been entirely laid aside, are truly Victorian in character, and the turn of fashion’s wheel has accorded them modishness in place of the tol- erance they have received for many seasons past. With the modishness has come va- riety. The manufacturers have giv- en us all sorts of designs in these tsilks—no, not all sorts of designs. departments.

At any rate Dame Rumor is busy with the tale that Benny is to be traded by the Wards for Ed Rousch, also an outfielder. Bill Phillips, the man- ager of the Newark team, says he knows nothing about such an ar- rangement. Baron de Coubertain, president of the Olympic games committee, which recently chose Lausanne as its international headquarters, writes to say that according to the rules and regulations the fixed venue for the next Olympic games—namely Ber- lin—cannot be changed nor the event postponed from next year. On the other hand, Germany has no authority to hand over the event to another country. Several towns in France and America would be glad to hold the meeting, but per- mission cannot be granted, as the committee is hedged in with regula- tions formed many years ago. It may, therefore, be concluded that the Olympic games of 1916 will not take place. In Fashion’s Realm That would mean entire loss of their essential character. They keep their neatness, their primness. The de- signs are minute, diminutive checks, very narrow stripes for the greater part, although occasionally a large check or plaid comes along. There are wide stripes too, but these even when in taffeta belong to a class other than the one we are consier- ing. These little checks and stripes are in white and black, blue and white, gray and white, almost any color with white, in black and col- or and in two tones of one color or in two contrasting colrs, The hem or skirt bottom Is re- celving a surprising amount of at- tention, and a late idea is the ‘‘man- uscript’” hem that is very chic and unusual. The hem proper is slashed into square scallops and these scal- lops are curved into finger rolls to the top of the slash. Frequently the skirt is lined with another color or the hem is simply faced with the contrasting _color. Either method results in the same effect, however, and the finer roll of the manuscript hem is very good with a two color combination. The manuscript hem is from Paris, as, indeed are many of the new lines, despite the fact that the atellers for a time ceased their usual bustling. Paris, insists, apparently, upon retaining her right to clothe the world. Organdie is very much in favor for summer wear, both for after- noon and evening, and one of the very latest organdie importations in white is beautifully embroidered in white wool. The combination is far from in- congruous, too. Organdie is being made up into innumerable frills up- on frocks of the same material for summer wear. Really, so far as or- gandie frocks are concerned, of ruf- fles there is no end. Sleeves of afternoon and morning frocks may be any length desired, but those most in favor are very long or three quarter length. Many of the afternoon sleeves are floating at the cuffs being a compromise of the angel and old fashioned bell no longer have fashionable raised bodices, but have sure enough sleeves of net lace, and sometimes the heavier materials on the frocks proper. Decidedly frocks are more modest in many ways this year, Hats with transparent crowns and brims of silk are quite the rage. Silk, indeed, supplants straws in many of the smartest afternoon mod- els. Feathers, too, have great vogue. RAILROAD NOTES Oil fire locomotives in operation at Buenos Aires have shown an economy of 20 to 30 per cent. over coal.

Never, in all her ten years behind the ribbon counter, had Helen Roys- ton looked forward to her holidays with greater anticipation. She was | tired and weary of measring rib’ bons and of going home to the tiny hallroom at night, where no comfort prevailed save that of having her lit. tle sister waiting for her. Helen had managed, by saving even the pennies, to support herself and Dolly, a slim child of thirteen, for ten years. “I can hardly wait until Saturday, Dolly mine,” Kelen sald as she slipped her arm about the slim little sister whose cheeks were only & shade less pale than her own. “We will have the time of our lives this year down at the seaside.” But, alas! Helen was destined not to get her holiday ‘at the seaside. On the Friday morning before they had intended to leave she was seized with pains that flung her onto her bed in sn agony of suffering. Dolly, white and frightened, insisted on running out to the old doctor who had brought her safely through the measles and all her childish com- plaints. The old doctor had gone away, but his substitute quickly followed the frightened child to the boarding house, “It means,” the young doctor said, gravely, “that you will have to go to the hospital tonight. An operation at once is necessary.” “I cannot possibly go,” Helen ex- claimed quickly, and glanced at Dolly, “My sister is entirely alone and I—" “She might be—alone—if you put this off,” Doctor Carter said gently. He thought only for a moment then looked smilingly at Dolly. “My moth- er will be delighted to have this young- ster with her—until you have recov- ered,” he said, turning his eyes full on Helen. Dolly flew to her sister’s arms and clung there weeping wildly until Doc- tor Carter drew her gently away. “We will only take your sister to a comfortable big room in the hospital, cut out a nasty little appendix that has been robbing her pink cheeks, and bring her back to you looking like a fighting cock.” Doctor Carter walked more or less blindly as he made his way back to the office. It was not often, even in his profession, that he played a i'nt!Tn a scene fint made his throat ache so painfully. .. He telaghoned to the hospital and to%ie' Surgéon to whom he wanted to trust the case. 23 = “Do everything you can,” he added when the arrangements had been made, “This girl has a small sister depend- ing on her. You know the rest.” During the following two weeks Helen knew that a holiday spent in & hospital under certain oonditions was an experience that comes to one only once in a lifetime. She saw sweet smelling flowers on all sides of her, fruits of all kinds and wonderfu) nurses that were angels in disguise. Ribbon counters, hallrooms, badly lighted, and weary hours of waiting for a holiday that never came, vanished from her consciousness. ‘ All that seemed now to be of vital importance was the coming and going of Doctor Carter. In his eyes the light of the world lingered for her. “I don't know how I am ever going to repay you for all you have done for me,” she said softly on the day when she was motored to his home to finish off the road to health. “In the days to come when I am meas- uring ribbons I will be pondering con- tinually on your kindness and trying to find some means whereby I can repay you even in a slight degree—" “Helen—" he interrupted swiftly, “there is only one way in the whole world that you can repay me, ané that is by loving me. I want you fof my wife, and 1 want Dolly for my sister, and my mother wants yOR both,” he laughed softly and impris- oned her wonderful, love-lit eyes. “There are.no two ways about it, dear—you will have to be mine.” From the prison his arms had made Helen made no attempt to escape. She laughed softly back at him and flung herself into closer captivity. That evening she took Dolly into her arms and told her all about it. The slim little sister looked mischiev- ously back at her. “It 18 a pity you missed your holl- day, 18 it not?” she questioned. “I am so happy, dearle,” she added warmly. (Copyright, 1914, by the McClure Newspa~ per Syndicate.) Fox Terrier Model of Bravery. The effective valor of the fox ter rier agalnst odds is again proven by the achievement of the Bloomingdale (N. J.) dog which chased a gray fox into a hole in Federal hill and killed it after a desperate encounter. All for- lorn hopes look alike to the gay little white dog with the large brain and the fighting jaw. He has the elan of the French soldier, the cheerful pug- nacity of the German and the forti- tude of the Russian. Unfortunately for him sometimes, he does not know when he is beaten, and he Is as eager to renew a conflict as to resent an in- sult. If of the true breed, fear is as foreign to his temperament as calcu- lation of the risks of an adventure. He never turns his back upon the bristling enemy and he never bullies the weak. Brave to a fault is a de- scription that fitg the fox terrier better than any of the human kind.
