NEW YORK, May C. Have you
seen what appears to be a corner of a
boudoir walking down the street?
"Well you eoon will. They are already
appearing on tennis courts hereabouts.
Cirls in chintzes and cretonnes, with
large splashy patterns all over them,
exactly like the velour parlor chairs
In their summer wrappings, they are,
Bright carmine drapery linens with
blue stripes and yellow dots, scenic
chintzes of huge patterns and vivid
hues In futuristic designs showing
languorous figures In eccentric poses"
are among the favorites not only for
sport skirts but for entire costumes,
hats and bags. "I never thought of
going into the dressmaking business,"
said an Interior decorator, "but woni-
en seem to be buying more large-figured
drapery fabrics for clothes than
ior houses this season. There are
rone designs I will not let them have,
though, for such purpose. He showed
a chintz enormously patterned with
red and yellow farm scenes. "That, for
Instance," he added, "one of them was
determined to dress herself In that
but I said positively that she should
not."
Another Nov.- York society woman
BetB up shop. Mrs. Gouverneur Morris,
this time, wife of the author, will
open a beauty parlor do luxe. She
Insists that she Is largely altruistic
In doing It that it is one duty In life
to add as much beauty as possible to
the world, and that she .hopes to en
able debutantes to keep their girlish
olor, lines, and lack of lines for add
d number of years. It will be a very
mart place, indeed, with tea 'served
-while one waits and all that sort of
thing. To overcome the cruel effects
. of golf and gardening upon the hands,
there is a recipe straight from all !
the harem. Regardless of how one
:- may pity the harem ladles, one Is al-
1 lowed to envy their white hands, and
so an American woman who had tea
one tlmo with them brought home the
recipe they used.
Phyllln Ruth Torque sailed on the
Saxonla the other day for England up
on a full-sized passport and all alone
-proudly alone, in fact. Tho pride and
thq noteworthlness are duo to tho fact
that Phyllis is Just four and one-quarter
years old. There is no one on the
steamer whom sho has ever seen bo
fore. Her father came up from Louis
ville to put her safely on board and
hor grandparents will meet her after
the broad Atlantic has been sailed
across. Rut en route, she is cnptaln
of herself. Everybody on board from
mldshlpmnto to captain, Including all
tho passongors wore clalming'tho priv
ilege of looking after hor a3 the boat'
sailed, but Phyllis explained firmly
to them all, "I am traveling alone."
Henry Anton Madler declares that
ho is not dead, whatever his undue
takor may Insist, and moreover tint
lie has a very particular grievance.
Tho undertaker, so he says, has used
his (Anton's) monoy with which to
givo a ImndHouio burial, Including cre
mation to another man! Eighteen
monthB ago, Madler says, before en
tering the lnrol Hill almshouse, ho
gnvo his, last dollars to the uudnrtak
er with direct Ions for their spending.
Tho other day, ho wandered Into u
gathering place of his old Hobokeu
cronies and they jumped upon him
with the statement that ho was dead

dead and his ashes reposing in a vase
in the crematory. He denied It, but
they insisted so firmly that he went
to see the undertaker about it. Yes,
said the undertaker, it was all true,
including the fact that his money had
been used for the ceremony. The alms
house attempted to straighten mat
terms, out by explaining to the un
dertaker that it was a different name
altogether they gave him as the de
ceased man, but the undertaker says
he understood it to be Madler and he
used Madler's money for it .and he
doesn't see what can be done about it.
Moreover, Mr. 'Madler, he thinks,
should .be glad to be alive under the
circumstances and not be fussy about
a little burial money.
Spring house-cleaning time is upon
up except with those prompt and
early souls who have it all done and
winter things well-packed away. Any
how, let them and the rest of the
housewives of the country think of the
New York Hippodrome and be grate
ful. Anna Ritterrodt, housekeeper for
the big playhouse, Is just now putting
away in moth balls for the summer
the wardrobe of "Good Times," and
here is what it means: 4,000 dresses,
2,500 hats, 3,000 pairs of tights, and
2,000 pairs of shoes and slippers. She
has thirty assistant house-keepers to
help her, but even so it's a fair-sized
moth-ball pob. The elephants only are
mothproof.

Although it was announced here
last week that the city of The Dalles
had made formal application for 4,
000,000 gallons of water dally from
the east fork of Hood river to be used
In supplying' domestic demand for the
neighboring town, the news cheated
no flurry among local irrigationists,
who characterize The Dalles' plans as
a mere dream that can never be re
alized.
The point is already reached, it !s
said, where the waters of the east
fork are far from meeting the needs
of farmers 'of the east side and Mount
Hood fruit sections, and the demands
of the Oregon Lumber company,
which operates its Dee mill with elec
trical power generated by the stream
Local folk do not believe that the
plea of The Dalles for the water will
go far beyond the mere application to
the water board.
"If The Dalles can show a superior
right to the 'stream," said George R.
"Wilbur, secretary of the East Fork Ir
rigation district, "she can take tbe
waters of the stream. But this The
Dalles cannot do. At the present time
there Is scarcely enough water left in
the stream .jo keep a fish alive. The
'Dalles cannot set up any claims super
ior to those of irrigationists whose
filings date back over a quarter of a
century and who are now using or
(Boys and girls of this part of the j
Atlantic coast are going to be expert
sailors by the time they are of boat
racing age. The number of sailboats
being built this year for school girls
and boys is amazing when one con
siders the tremendous increase over
a few years ago. Two hundred and j,
ten of them have been built in shops !
right around New York, ranging in
size from the fourteen and one-half
foot boats familiar in Oyster Bay, to
16-foot cats for use off Marblehead.

WHY A "BANK ACCOUNT?
THERE'S ROOM AT THE TOP
THE majority of bank accounts settle to the bot
tom of the heap, and 'never seem to climb up tho
financial ladder. ... .
But that shouldn't deter YOU from making YOURS '
grow head and shoulders above the. rest. In fact,
it should make you, determine .to, do it.,, ;
