So fa r ns her headw ear is con­ cerned th e choice of new things for the school girl will prove a pleasant occu­ pation. The new modes are delight­ fully well suited to youth.

They are th e queer- looking ornam ents and decorations done in the “cubist” o r “ futuristic" m anner, th a t m ake one think of a crazy-quilt pattern. P aris started this style, which mny become a vogue, by tak in g Inspiration from the “In tern a­ tional Exposition of D ecorative and Industrial A rts” now In progress there, where the a rt of the “mod­ ernists" Is on display. B ut in mil­ linery this new a rt only appears in little touches—easy to get used to— If not to understand. The group of four h ats shown here Includes four distinctly different shapes am ong popular types of millinery and lends off with a sm all off-the-face model of silk th at is soft and close fitting. It Is made with a sectional crow n and pointed upturn ed brim, both covered w ith rows of machine stitching in silk. As a rule these h ats are made of black, or dark-colored, silk and stitched with a bright contrasting color o r several colors In silk thread and th is stitching gives them the required texture. They need no frame. Ap­ plique m otifs of stitched silk and an ornam ent supply the trimming. At the left another silk-covered hat h as rows of pin tucks In the silk and a velvet facing, with soft brim edge. Loops of ribbon and an ornam ent trim It. At the right a amall velours hat has an upturned brim and a simple s tra p trimming. It announces Itself as a sm art herald of new modes with brim edge and stra p trim m ing bound w ith gilded kid. A wide-brimmed dress hat of soft felt finishes the group. It Is adorned with velvet leaf motifs, veined with gold p sln t and edged with gold ribbon and a small ornam ent. For daily w ear hats of th e asm s type as two of those pictured are rec- ommended, and they may be Imd in a variety of shapes. The soft- stitched silk hut and the felt or ve­ lours hat will stand up under much wear, if bought In good q u alities; the very cheap ones are not durable. All the heavy crepes, cre|>e satins and satins used fo r coats, have established them selves so firmly In the esteem of women th at designers concern them selves only with ways of varying them. Every woman, old or young, look* well in these silk outer- garm ents und it is the business of stylists to turn them out in versions th a t are dignified or piquant or tab lured, to meet requirem ents of many kinds. H ere Is a coat of heavy silk crepe th a t will make Itself very useful In the interim between sum mer and win­ ter. It is a straight-line garm ent with, fulness let in at the sk irt por­ tion by m eans of wide plaits at each side.

A coat of th e heavier silk fabrics, lined with crepe, and interlined, will m ake Itself useful nearly all the year sound and for afternoon or evening wear.

THE JAGUAR The Jag u ar had heard a conversu tion between the I.lon and the Tiger. Each had been doing much talking. Tl e Tiger had been saying th at the Lion spent most of his tim e In ro ar­ ing. while he, the Tiger, did the clever things In life. Whut the Tiger had said was p er­ fectly true, hut it had m ade the I.lon angry and he had roared more than ever. “Well," said the Jag u ar, "as I am al­ most as large as the Tiger I think I ought to he heard from, too." “ W hat do you mean when you say you ought to lie heard from ?-' asked a young Jag u ar, a uew arriv al in the zoo. “I mean th at I ought to tell you something about uiysetf,” th e Jag u ar said. “Well, why dou’t you?" asked the young Jaguar. "I believe I will,” said th e Jaguar. "Ha, ha.” said King Lion. “I ant not th e only one who w ants to boast." "Nor I." said the Tiger. “I didn’t say I was going to boast," snarled the Jaguar. “I rem arked th at I should he heard from and th a t I should tell something of myself. “I may tell som ething very, very dreadful.” “Not much chance of th at." said King Lion, tossing his mane and look­ ing very proud and superior. "Not much chance of th at," said the Tiger. Even the young Ja g u a r added: “Not much chance of »hat." “Maybe not," said th e Jag u ar, “and again, maybe so." “Oh. don’t w aste so much time,” said King Lion, “go on with your story." “T h a t’s the right idea,” said Tiger. “Yes, go on with your story,’’ said the young Jaguar. “Ah. you’re all interested." said the L esson for A u gu st 30 PAUL Jag u ar, “for th ere Is no other reason in w anting me to hurry.

Even the young Ja g u ar agreed with this. “I thought I was going to have a chance to spenk," said th e Jaguar. “To be sure," said King Lion. "I'm only w aiting for you to begin.” “Only w aiting for you to sta rt,” said young Jag u ar. “Only w aiting for you to commence." said th e Tiger. “Then let me get started ,” growled th e Jag u ar. “Let him get started ,” said the Tiger. “Let him get started .” said young Jag u ar. "By all means, let him get started .” said King Lion. "Not, of course, for a train , but with his story.” “T h a t’s w hat we m ean," said the Tiger. "Yes, th a t’s w hat we m ean," said th e young Jaguar. “Well,” said th e Jag u ar. “I will tell you. “I came from South America and I had a very exciting trip here. “I came in a boat, I did. and so I know about boats, even though trains are beneath my notice. “Every one admired my handsome yellow coat, my strength nnd my beau­ tiful big head. “Yes.
