(Spir it's Just a bit trying for membera of the doll circle particularly the new Chrihtmas dolls which are not quite socially adjusted to their new envi ronmentto go to school even occa sionally. With no previously arrang ed appointment amn"jr tb dolls, lt' almost sure to mean a day In soli tude, neat coiffures are apt to get twisted awry, sashos crumpled, and altoitcther it Is quite unsatisfactory. So, posReRsIng & keen understand ing of doll nature. Mrs. Ethel Ludwlgj deslpnatei jasc many as aon any st the Applegate school, and her pu pils reveled In a doll enow. Thtrty-Heven little personages of the Inanimate worlo were escorted to school on that day by their loving little mothers (and fathers, too) where they were presented In a most formal manner. There were Just lots more dolls at home, however, who did not feel socially Inclined, it was revealed. In order to appear at their very best at the exhibition during the languapo period In the afternoon, the dolls were laid In bed In a quiet room of the school building, where they might relax and indulge In beauty Bleep until the formal hour. Only a few were aroused for a few moments during tlie noon period. Every dolly was introduced by her proud owner, who told when she re eclved the toy, from whom, the name, and many other phases of the life story. A mcssnge of particular Inter est from the Orient was brotiht about through the appearance of a two-inch Japanese doll whose round little tum my suggested that she does not count calories, but haa cultivated a charm- lng personality Instead. There were many very beautiful dolls, some at taining & height of 24 Inches. Three, whose very dnrk complexion bespoke deacendancy from plantation days in the south, met and mingled with the rest. Fritzle Offenbacher, one of the three small boys bringing dolls, voic ed regret that his ebony-skinned Topsy flaunted an orange ribbon on her wearing apparel which did not harmonize as well as the red one she had lost. ' Every dolly was groomed to the nth degrees for the occasion, one scrupu lous owner stating that she had washed and Ironed for her small charge the day before. Many of the Christmas dolls, however, had been laid away caretully through tlie long weeks in anticipation of the Import ant event, and literally presented a band-box appearance. Pupils enjoyed candy presented by Mrs. Ludwlg as the climax ot tho day. Doll day promises to become an an nual event, and was established last year at the Applegate school. Thera has been serious consideration of In stituting "car day," when the boys would display their favorite toy, but It has been decreed that whore the more vigorous toys are enncerned, every day may be car day If active young minds are so Inclined.
