Is ,old enough to know what It wants pd young - enough to demand and get some thing different every minute. Size, build, nationality and fael.il V expression have undergone certain fundamental changes in mo bum year which may be bewildering from an nnthropollgal stnndpolrt but are easy to understand In the world of dolln. Until this year, for Instance, blonds maintained n steady, solid popularity. A blond, either with round, trusting eyes or with a bored doll-of-thc-world expression, was able to find a home without difficulty. This year, however, the race blond dolls Is vanishing, us fur as American manufacturers arc con corned. ( Twenty years ago a doll census would have shown the blonds in a majority of four to one. Today the shelves, of doll factories are creaking with bruncts und when Christmas comes they expect to have things their own way. Another change foreseen by doll makers this year Is a decrease in the demand for infants. Costume dolls representing various national ities, characters from the eom.c strips or those famous porsunagos out of fairy tales, have almost sup erseded white dressed, yellow head ed baby dolls In.. the affections of American children, t ; DolfTiTfallcrs" spenTrniioutffinil nf 4 dollHis on molds and machinery when Ihey create a new doll and they do so nt their own risk.
