THE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX, PORTLAND, XOVE3IBER 15, 190S. Simplicity and Comfort in Little Chaps Clothes Serviceability Marked Feature, but Not at Expense of Attractiveness, in Garments for Small Boys. COOKING IDE EASY NO DIRT OR FIRE n if lvt' t1;iN m If I r : v ' ft::- ;U r :rth; U 1 J is ' ! il -r -AJ ill '" A5" SliTPUCITT and comfort thees two words h&rs come to mean more in the dreaslns of little tots than any thing else, and It follows, unfailingly, that Che little garments must be pretty and at tractive as well. Particularly Is this the rutw in the dressing of little boys. active, full of energy and mischief, as they are. and clothes with too many fancy frills for the youngsters have come into disfavor with the sensible mothers as well as with the little chaps who do not like to be fussed with too much, or have their care-free little minds burdened with the worry of not soiling or "mussing up" furbelows that properly have no place In a child's Wardrobe. While the children's departments of all the local shops show a really wonderful variety of cut and style In suits and separate garments for small boys, they all adhere pretty generally to this rule, for It is only the simple, practical, coin- portable thine that meet with ready among their patrons. Just now the shelves are stocked up with new things for boys, for the "Winter season. A few types of the prevailing trend of juvenile styles are shown In the accompanying Illustrations. Little Salt of 'Warm Serge. Na 1 shows a simple little loose suit of warm serge, one of the most popular styles for youngsters ranging from four to seven years of age. Little bloomers, made loose and properly cut to give free dom of motion, and fitted with elastic bands about the knees, are Duttoned to an. underwaist, and over this is slipped the long, loose slip of a coat, which but tons out from the shoulder and down the left side to the hem. so that It can be easily slipped on, and is simple to laun der. One strong beVt of good quality leather, with a plain little buckle will do service for several of these little suits, as the belt Is merely slipped through little loops made of stitched pieces of tlie suit material snd sewn firmly to the coat. properly placed to keep the belt high in the back and low at the front. Still a Warmer One. No. 2 shows a little suit of cream tinted serge, warmer and quite as dressy, as the little suits of white linen so much worn during the Summer. This Is very similar to the little suits above described. For party or Indoor wear, during the Winter, or to wear under warm little coats of "Teddy Bear" cloth or crave nette, the lighter toned materials and white goods are dressy and smart for the little chap, for whom they have an at traction that sets them quite apart from their "every day" suits of the darker materials. Smart Two-Piece Suit. Another smart little two-piece suit is shown In No. 3. This is of warm dark serine, and Is made double breasted, the double breast being outlined by two rows of bright, brass buttons. Button and braid are playing a considerable part In the costumes of the .luvenlles this season. as well as In those of their elders, and since the little folks take such pleasure In pretty, bright buttons, they may be scat tered lavishly, for trimming as well as utility. A wide, turn-over collar, with s flutter-bow tie of blue complete this com fortable and pretty little costume. Sweater Popular for Small Boy. The sweater for the small boy is be coming more and more popular, and well It may, for nothing could be more prac tical, comfortable and all-around satis factory than one of these little garments. which give extra warmth and are Just the thing for a rough-and-tumble romp. The central picture shows two little fel lows, fitted out with warm little sweat ers. In the act of "mixing" in a boxing bout. Sweaters may now be had for all sizes of youngsters, not even excepting the tiniest scrap of an infant, and come In all manner of color combinations. No. S shows a neat little suit of checked material. In two pieces, the bloomers grown to the dignity of trousers, and the coat slip elaborated upon by a wide safior-collar effect, with a detachable V yoke of cream-tinted serge, embroidered. The suit is of dark gray, and .Is of a pattern better suited to the younester Just reaching the trouserwearlng stage than for the tinier lads, for whom the long slip coat Is preferable.

Optician who has returned from Europe, where for the past sir months "he has been investigating the different methods of eye - test ing among prominent opticians in England, France and Ger many, is now using the new Wiesbaden- method, which caused so much' talk in Europe and is the most accurate science today in the fitting of glasses.

They meet weekly to prac tice German songs. At present their repertoire comprises the German na tional air. "Die Wacht am Rheln," Goethe's "Heidenroesleln" and Heine's "Die Lorelei." The glje will make Its first appearance at the rhetoricals to be held after the mid-term examinations. The English department Is taking great pains to make better readers of the students under its charge. In line with this effort, at the regular monthly meet ing of the English corps, held Wednes day afternoon, Miss Mae Connell ad dressed the teachers on the principles or good reading. Then, by way of ex ample, she read the "Vision of Sir Launfal." As a result the teachers will form a reading class under the guidance of Miss Mae Connell. Her skill in that line has often been proved in the many excellent 'school theatricals that In past years have been given at the West High. The literary societies Friday afternoon held their business meeting only, ad journing early to attend the ball game. The Phllolexlans and Adelphians held their quarterly election of officers. Those of the former society for-- the ensuing term are: President, Ada May Bigger; vice-president.

AFTER many good editions and also a few poor ones, the banner copy of The Lens has Just been published. There may be defects in it, but its editors are satisfied with having a paper that 'is superior to all others of its class. By the time the next issue appears the Lens will be entered as second-class matter at the Portland Postoffice, for this matter is in the hands of the officials at Wash ington.

The next edition, which will appear Tuesday, is printed on four different kinds of paper and contains several good features. The Eukrineons, who were to hold their regular programme Friday, . adjourned into the assembly hall to hear the Phrenodlkerts who were holding an extra good programme. Miss Elsie' Clair ren dered a solo and was generously ap plauded. She responded with an encore. Dr. H. C. Shaffer, who was to address the Eukrineons, spoke to the Phrenosr His talk was on sociology, and wVs extremely Interesting and clear. The number that made the biggest hit was Frau Bekker's vocal selections. She sang in German, and told the story of the first' song, "The Erl King." She responded to two encores; Genevieve Courtney gave two recitations, both humorous. They were 'A Warning" and "The Night "Wind." The Phreno Chorus sang interestingly. The football team has partly redeemed itself for past defeats bv beating the I Salem High School team, which wa the champion team of the valley. The 9alf:m boys were well treated by the East Siders and a large delegation of students was at the depot to see them off as they left for Salem.
