"To my mind It is perfectly evident that the American girl is tending more and more toward the classic in type," said he to a Sun reporter. "The evidence cannot be eel aside. "Just look over a period of fifteen years and you beln to realize the dlfferenco. To my mind the strongest factors.

Take the Venus de Milo, for Instance, und many an other statue of girlhood and womanhood that are looked upon as standards of classic bnauty. It wan throunh the mental and physical superiority of their education that the Greek women became perfect types of womankind. The Greeks reached their highest de velopment during this period. This was the greatest epoch In their art tnd archi tecture. They were highly Intellectual and Judging from their art the physical devel opment was quite the equal of the Intellec tual. "So It will be with the American girt. Th higher educntlon, the mental, moral and physical training have developed a new type, and that type shows a strong ten dency to the classic. "And I might go further and say truth fully that 1f the American girl keeps In mind a high ideal and a proper balance as she develops In mind and body aha will be the most beautiful girl in the world. In fact, with pardonable pride, I think we can spfely say that she is now."

I!ut one can't help noticing a subtle change taking plsce. There Is an undoubtud tendency toward the classic. "A few years ago the chances of some old Greek or Roman ijeauty, were she to return to life and aeniand a Bitting of any of the present day artists, would have been small Indeed, simply because until recently the demand lias been for a cer tain type looked upon for some reason or New Collars and Ties in Pretty Lingerie HERE was a mighty giving of neckwear this Christmas, not only along the tune-honored line of neckties for men, but be tween women as well, for the dainty collars, ties, rabau. etc.. T which are now offered for woman's wear made most attractive and satisfactory presents. To be sure, at their best they vera by no means Inexpensive, Lut the giver had the satisfaction of knowing that the other woman would realize the value of the gift, since every true woman has yearned over the churnilng lingerie and lace trifles, even If she hasn't been extravagant enough to Indulge freely In them. And. too, not all of the pretty neckwear Is ruinously expensive. Any hand-einbrol-dered collar necessarily costs more than a plain or machine-embroidered linen collar, but there are some very effective thinga of the kind that do call for extravagant Investn.ent. The striped linen collars In white and color with embroidered scalloped edges and embroidered dots of tho Mdor, accompanied by little buws of the same linen embroi dered to match the collar, are a case in point and are particularly chic, thougn not extremely high in price. Some of these striped collars are elaborated by the Intro duction of little motifs In real Irish lace, but on the whole the collar and tie of tills type is smarter In the simpler form. Irish lace plays a considerable part In many of the more extensive collwrs and bows or rabats. and there a a decided liking for collars whose turnover part Is composed whohy of real Irish lace, or haby Irish ret with small motifs of heavier de sign. With these collars Is worn either a knot of soft-colored silk or a small bow of lace corresponding with the lace of the collar. Some women draw a sheer silk scarf or tie around the neck so that the delicate color shows through the lace and tie this scarf in a little knot at the front, but whl'u many sorts of silk cravats and bows are shown in the sho and ad'.pted f u prac tical reason there is a decided preference for the bow of lingerie or lace.

As a nation we have been sur feited wtlh a girl who was anything hut national In type and characteristics. So It is remarkable how little variations In the tasto of a few individuals may be the means of bringing about after a certain time an almost national alteration In ap pearance, particularly In facial character istics.

Moreover, it nriy pre serve us from the everlasting 'Somebody's Girl of which we have all grown so weary."

"This fact confirms my own humhl opinion that mr young women are tending toward the Grecian type of beauty. This applies to thi lines of the figurs today, possibly more than to the features. "If one forms un opinion regarding the woman of today from her published photo graphs one is apt to pet nn erroneous Idea, as usually one of two claRsoa Is largely represented cither the ultra fashionable or else the fpotllght fnvorltrs. neither of which Is truly representative; and both of whloh are necessarily artificial. "So 1 am speaking of the larger class, and tho most truly representative of young American womanhood those connected with the homes, business and professional life of America, the women who represent the United States in all thst is vital." Women In odd Places. Women drift Into queer trades to make a living. On the west side of New Tork City, in old Greenwich vlllsge. there Is a woman cobbler. For twenty-five years she has been mending shoes of women and children In the old village. She Is a cobbler of the old school, and Bhe uses only old-fashioned tools of fifty years ago, when shoes war made to last a couple of years Instead of as many weeks, and the leather that passes under her hands muet have certain quail nes or she will have none of It. In an up town street a young woman Is engaged In the undertaking business with her father, tl'he girl is a bit sensitive about her busi ness calling, and usually when a too In quisitive person presses her to find out her occupation she throws them off the track by telling them she is helping her parent, who Is .a planter. and the amount of originality achieved within these prescribed limitations Is truly surprising. There Is literally no end to the novelty In shapes .and details among the lingerie and lace bows, frills, tabs. etc.. arid an at tempt at description is hopeless for tha exquisite rinesness of needlework in the best of the designs is the notable feature In such neckwear und it must bo seen to be appreciated. The di signers are. however, showing more consideration for the exigencies of launder ing, and cleaning than they did at first and many of the smart little bows of em broidered lingerie arc now so made that they may be taken apart for laundering wit.iout any consal. rahle difficulty, the separate aris, If the bow is not actually tied, as it seldom Is. being completely fin ished so that there will be no fraying. The soft pla.ted jabos. or rabats. of course, require skillful laundering, but many of tie prettiest things are quite flat, men ly one embroidered tab falling over a plainer and slightly lunger one. and these offer no dim. '.lit prjblem to the laundress, though I.',-.- all dainty embroidered things they need to be washed and ironed with care. Ail of this expensive and delicate lin gerie ne-kwoar will j.rove much more durable If one will launder it herself instead of turn's? it over to an ordinary careless laundress, snd the thrifty woman who wants to undertake this work, but either br-sris or rliMikes going to her kitchen for an Iron will we'eotne with Joy the delight ful little working eels which now come packed with a-nailng compactness into Uttie leather or wicker cases.

A neighboring woman who considered the scheme a clever one decided to try it on her Jim. On the fateful nlrht she got a telephone message from her husband that he would dine downtown with a Customer. Jim got home about 2 In the morning a good deal to the bad. He wasn't peevish or garrulous, at that, but was willing to hike off to his own little spare bed and forget things. But that plan wouldn't serve for Jim's wife. Fhe wanted Jim on record. So she picked quite a lot on Jim, raking In a number of Uttle Incidents that he'd supposed to be quite dead and buried, and she harked on them, and finally Jim ex ploded and told her what he thought about the casting up business and she (surrepti tiously starting the recording apparatus of ths phonograph a going) let him spiel right ahead, only shooting In a word here and there to get hlin a bit warmer around the collar band, snd by the time a couple of phonograph records had been made Mrs. Jim certainly had a fine showing to make against Jim when he should get back to himself. Jim waa back to himself and hitting up a briarwood pipe with keen enjoyment after dinner on the following evening. Then Mrs. Jim. who'd been waiting the tight moment, started the phonograph to working, with Jim's own make record No. 1 uncoiling first. Jim listened with quite a lot of Interest Mrs. Jim put on roll No. 2 and again James listened with manifest interest. , Then Mrs. Jim, ready to lapse into tears at Jim's first sign of heartbroken sepent ance, "stood by." as they say at sea. "Is the little party all over now?" In quired Jim, In quite a matter-of-fact tone. "Well. Isn't that enough?'' Inquired Mrs. Jim, hardened to note his hardness. "Plenty,'' rtsponded Jim. "And plenty's a heap. It's good stuff, though. I like It. I didn't know tint I had the gizzard left to talk right out In meetln' that way. However, my sentiments as thus recorded are approved. They're endorsed. Not only that, they're great. I'ldn't think 1 had it in me. danced if I did"' Then Jim, tossing those two records of his own make Intv. the ash can, carried the phonograph down the elevator and gave It to the Janitor wherewith to amuse the chil dren.

American Vl'oiwi Abroad. They come Into Europe, thousand upon thousands cf them every year the women of America, write Vance Thompson in Mur.seys MHgazine. A will that is not their own atsvletlc.

It Is not true, however, that the Arn.ri can women who hae married :nfo tie aristocracy of continental Europe have Amerlcanlxed that aristocracy. When M'sg Dollar weds the due It Is she who chenu.s She becomes dJcal. Upon her descends ti e occult prestige .f the nobility.

False title t'cnd, the- pup.l "counts" Jostle the "barons" of finance it all th rharlty balla; but even tl.eoe richly gilt Imitations of nobility have failed to discredit the sncler.t titled houses. Nor have the poverty, the Imbecility, and the vice of the little descendanta of the cru saders robbed them of the traditional re spect that has so lorg been raid them. AJ I have said. U- American girl who nters this nobility becomes noble; he may not become French, Italian, Hungarian, German; there may cling to ber the leaven of things American; but in habits of thought. In mode of life, she becomes es sentially aristocratic. More or hs quickly she take on the color and tone of her ur rour.dlngs. What persists longest tn her, it may be. is the new world moral seniss, witn Its rigid hatred of lie and license and masculine unw orthiness; but rarely does this moral sense cany her to that extreme point of protest, the divorce court.

Two Chicago women have won laurels In President Koosrvelt's favorite field, and by their prowess In the chase have proed themselves worthy followers of Plana, One of 1I1. 111 in an encounter with a bear had a narrow escape, from death or serious In jury. Accompanied by their husbands, they 1 l-i ged Into the canrbrakes of Louisiana and Mississippi and spent a most profitable t n dn hunting b'g game. In which Um the party succeeded In bagging two bears und a deer. One of the bears and the doer ate creelit.d lo the rifles of the women. The party returned to Chicago to celebrate t'hrtrriiM with their famllle. The men of th party, Albert E. Coon, '"it . It. Claik and Samuel Hale, left Chicago Friday morning, December IS. for t , I unt'ng ground, w here they wera Joined two days later by Mr. Coon and ,V:. ClarM". The hunt wa under the guid ance of William n. Talley, Winona. Mis., who led the way Into the brake with his pack of twenty thoroughbred! hunting dogs. For the hrst three days t ad weather was encountered, the spe.rt was joor and the h.in'ers !,, cun lo he discouraged Then the women tame, and the party, having worked dow n Int.. th h.w delta of the Mississippi, near the president's recenet hunting grounds, round better luck, and the skill of the womene came Into play. Illlnd School Unnecessary. Miss Winifred Holt, chairman of the New York Assuclatlon for th Illlnd. thinks that Mind children should be taught In the pub He school and shuuld be required to attend School Just as other children are. The erec tion of large building for the separate use of the blind Is a great mistake. It Is ;h.'ui:!it. and a 1 eeles expend lure ol m ney. There could b r, ms for tiie blind children Just as there are for the other children. All that IS needed after the first few years is the book with raised print, and then they could recite In the sr cc classes with ths seeing cltildren of their grade. Women Not In Demand. Mr. Arnold s-hanlUIn, Just returned from Panama, says that men who go lo Panama seem to tlilnk a wife one of the first necessities, but generally they are pro- ided with sweethe arts, who either come to them properly chap-Toned or they go back to tie states for them. The govern ment builds rice six-room houses for the married n.en. and the-re is a very pleasant social bet being formed. He did not seem to agree with Miss Helen Yarlck Boswell thnt old n.alds or l.uthelor girls are wanted there, the Inference being that the lis; lit sort of men are either married or about to be when they go to Panama. Support Their Husband. Mrs. Frederick Nathan says that 17,009 women in New York support the lr hus bunds, and she would like to know why these ladies are not allowed to vote, tihe does not approve, nor does she disapprove of a w oman's suj porting her husband, but she thinks that such a woman should have mote to say in regard to tho laws than the man 'who Is supported. A good way to solve the difficulty would be simply to take the right of suffrage from lite man who cannot support his wife and family.
