Many men confound the subject of models with the subject of style, precisely because all stores do it. The fact that this is a great season for double-breasters does not signify that all double-breasters have style, any more than the possession of a fiddle makes a man a violinist. Style is not achieved by a slavish adherence to a common formula, a Violinist ! but by so making a garment that its lines shall be distinguished for its individuality and beauty even in cityful of models that are similar. Hand-tailoring is simply a more gifted mode of expression. It is strictly in harmony with the models of the hour but transcends them by the sheer beauty of its workmanship, as one clear voice, by the beauty of its singing, rises above the collective efforts of a choir.

Gaetano Varricchio and Wife Have Ten, All Americans, but Can’t Find Shelter for the Brood, Although Ready and Willing to Pay Extor- tionate Rent. Gaetano Varricchio has ten chil- dren. The landlord says Varricchio must move. Justice Scanlan of the Municipal Court, Second District, the Bronx, has given him a stay until to-day, Willing to pay his rent where he now lives, it is refused and no one will rent him an apartment, “Too msny kids,” Varricchio says. The court will decide whether the landlord can eject the Italian street cleaner and his big family into the streets because other people want the apartment. The case of Varricchio is only one of thousands in the Bronx and other parts of the city, but it is noticeable because of the large number of chil- jdren and the fact that Varricchio stands ready to pay his rent despite numerous increases. The Rent Prof- tearing Committee is expected to take action on the case when it | comes up for a hearing, attorneys for | the committee being in all the courts at present. Varricchio and his big family have lived in the apartment at No. 276 East 137th Street for six years, The Tent was $15 when he moved in, it later was increased to $16 a month, then to $18, and last October jumped to $23, a $5 leap. Varricchio was told he could pay it or get out, Winter was coming on; 80 he stayed. March 1 the last hike was made, the rent going up to $24 a month, for five rooms and bath on the second floor, rear, No repairs in tive years, Var-|¥% ricchio says. “Phe agent tell me to get out,” Varricchio said. “I offer to pay him|* 24 but be want rooms for other family, say to get out. 1 go to court, Judge tell me to stay until I get other place. No can find, landlord ask how many children, I have to say ten, then he say no rooms, I willing to buy small house but cannot find. I look already two weeks every eve- ning.” Varricchio rents the apartment from D, A, Trotta, a real estate agent of No, 891 Wast 149th Street. It is owned by a banker of Mulberry Street. A sign in front of the build- ing announces the janitor has two, three and four room apartments to let. The other tenants do not pay as high rent as the Varricchio family, it is said. When an Evening World nian went to see Mr. Varricchio he found him a very good business man. Coming to America in 1901 Varricchio was nat- uralized in 1908 and went to work for the city as a cleaner the same year. He has been stationed near 149th Street and Southern Boulevard most of the time since then. He is a mem- ber of the Monroe Democra‘te Club, No, 294 Willis Avenue, sells real estate in his spare hours and is paying out on six lots in New Jersey, where he plans to build a home and retire after ® few years. He cannot go there now, as it is twenty-five miles out of New York. Varricchio 1s proud of his family, too, But he could round up only eight of his children for a family group picture. The oldest son, Auguste, is a priest, Vincentine and Alfred, two other sons, work after school hours and were not at home. In ‘he picture are Mr. and Mrs, Varricchio, the aged grandmother, Mrs. Pasqualina Sata- rile, and etght children, George, Fddie, Girard, Rosa, Frank, Arthur, Qureno and Mary, the baby. “All good American names, too,” smiled the father as he named them, eae $10,000 TO FIGHT LYNCHING.

A more exact, if less lenient, estimate of this so-called “overseas revue” is that ft is & coarsened Tenderloin adaptation of the {dea which made “The Better ‘Ole” one of the most diverting plays of the entire. season. Doubtless, Mise Brice and Mr Morris. ney were ely popular among the doughboys in France, Yet whatever im- pressions their experience made upon | them, they are now trying to express, not as satire or caricature, as in the case of the Bairnsfather piece, but in| terms of abstreperous vaudeville. The result is a nondescript piece in two acts, supposed to take place in huts near the front, which is lively them, Lou Hascall, Clarence Woststors and May Boley. ‘There is also a con- siderable chorus tn khaki and nurses’ uniforms, and there are occasional at- tempts to Indicate the localities in which the Incidents are sui to occur, But the effect of the whole un- fortunately is that of a loosely compiled variety bill of a very indifferent kind. 6 performance did not lack the uproarious good will of the first audience, which was largely representative of the artistic stratum from which the com- pany had been recruited.
