SHILLFUL SEWING AT ARMORY SHo 100 Dresses Eatered in Contest | Tor Local Girls | About 100 dresses have been en tered in the cotton dressmaking con test for girls under the direction of | the Junior Achievemen. Foundation of New Britain, the Herald, the Rec- ord and Fair Department Store, Ra- phael's Department Store, ~Boston | Store, Davidson & Leventhal and Adler's Silk Shop. The dresses were on display to- | day at the state armory to which they had been removed after being displayed for a few days in a local | store window. The materials to conform with the rules of the contest were of cotton, but the workmanship and the choice of materials and color combinations showed great skill on the part of the girls who entered the contest. The age limit was from 9 to 18| vears and some of the exhibits| made by the veunger girls were as | attractive and as well made as those | of the older ones. The patterns| chosen were not all simple and there were some examples over which a skilled dressmaker - would hesitate before attempting to make them up. Prints were great- favorites as they allowed a wide choice of colors and those with patterns featuring greens and reds predominated. There were | also dresses of organdie, a material | difficult to sew, but the girls who made the dressse ‘evidently found no difficulty in their work as they turn- ed out some very pretty models | suitable for party or Sunday best frocks. There were also g few en- semble models. One young miss displayed her talent in tatting and used it for trimming. Another made ! her own organdie flower and used | | No pattern seemed too hard for the young ladies to make and the result was a display of models worthy of any fastidious young girl's wardrobe. | The contest was open to all girls | in New Britain, Kensington, Berlin, declared for Herbert Hoover of his | the gun of an unidentified assailant | | East Berlin, Plamville and Newing- home state of California for presi- dent, Mr. Hearst's pronouncement was in reply to a cabled query from the | Brooklyn Daily Eagle: “Whom will you support for presi- | dent and what isstes will determine the election?”" In eight hundred words Mr. Hearst stated - his opposition to: the prohibiticn stand of Governor Smith whom he described as a Tammany candidate “Apparently the democratic party is endeavoring to make its opposi- tion to prohibition the dominant is- | sue Of the campaign,” Mr. Hearst asserted, addirg that in his opinion it was a “false issue” It the people do want a change | in prohibition. Mr. Hearst said, he thought it would be a step toward | “‘genuine temperance.” “that means they will not want it modified by | Tammany Hall which, as everybody | knows has always been hand in| glove with the liquor interests and | has always in the past supported | the saloor and been supported by | the saloon,” Mr. Hearst cabled. The real issue, Mr. Hearst de. | elared, is the “people's wealth and | welfare, their material and spiritual | benefits,” which, he believes, the re- | publican party is best equipped to guarantee. | As for Tammany, Mr. Hearst as- serted, “the history of Tammany vnder Tweed and Croker and Mur- phy and in fact the Tammany scan- dals in New York today established | the fact beyond contradiction that | the people of the United States do | not want Tammany -in control of | the nation. It is bad enough to| have Tammany in, control of York. It 'would be a calamity to have it in control of . the United | Btates.” | Mr. Hearst referred to Nicholas Murray DButler as “one erstwhile” presidential candidate Wwho “has aligned himself with Tam- many Hall and the liquor interests because .he does not like Mr. Hoover's attitude on the liquor ques- tion.” !
