Dr. Davis was born in Ohio Januar

LAMY BROTHERS , SPEED
AND JUMPING ICE SKAT-
INQ CHAMPIONS.
F. C. Lamy , father of Edmund La

character In the realm of sport today ,

IIP moit Illustrious Ice speed mer
chant of tlio present time he lias also
wo younger sons , Ernest and Clau-
UIIH , who give promise of occupying
he place held by tlio older brother In
i few years to come.
Lamy the older Is probably OH much
responsible for the success of his won
Mmund as any other agency which
ias hud to do wlth making the boy a
champion. When Edmund started out
n the sport the father attended to the
most minute detail of the training of
the boy , and he would not let any
other hands cure for the skater , either
lust before or Immediately after a
ace. The consequence Is that his
urefitl attention , with the young
nan's native ability , made him the
greatest amateur Ice skater In Ameri
ca.

The Well Dressed

Spring clothes ore beginning to crop

T not the center of the stage. These

plrcd by all ages , with a dash of tin
nodorn Japanese sprinkled over the
vhole , for the kimono effect Is a do
all to be reckoned with lit tlio con
trnctlon of spring modes.
It would not be correct to call the
ttlo new coats boleros , for their
rents are cut Into deep Vs and left
open to show a vest or chemisette
nd the finish Is more like a flshu
ban a bolero. Too , they arc sleeve

band may have n rosette for a finisher
or it may have a bunch of tasselt

lilng ( inishlng touch the fancy might
lictate. Tlio neck Is plain , a inert
ross-over , which with its hard out
inc. brings out the daintiness of the

Little Jackets and blouses are al
vays safe to use as tryouts for a new

hemselves to more variety by reasor

The French fashion makers are e

experiments uro likely to bo on view

to the kiioulng In the matters ot
dress Indications of the direction In
which fashions current arc setting ;
hut t > o far nil Is in the air. Paris Is
playing with tln > oxtiemi' classic , an
was to be expected when empire and
directoire modes gained linn hold , but
tbesp extreme ? modes are always for
the fuw and a blessed conservatism
preserves the many from lines too
radical.
More and more are the ultra fash
ionable freeing themselves from the
confining trannels of corsets. ICvcn
here * certain ohibtlc corsets absolute
ly without steels or bones- though
most artfully cut , are gaining much In
favor. So far. so good ; but when
along with tills ono finds the frank
revelations of the lirot empire , the
clinging supple folds , the deep decol-
lotages , the very short sleeve or the
sleeveless corsage , the narrow skirt
cut up at bottom to show the ankles.
In word the latest phase of la llgno
as worshipped In Paris then the fash
ions are becoming a trille too classic
for the average modern woman's
sense of the Iltness of things. She
prefers her pure Greek In marble , and
after all It Is she who controls the
fashion euirrcnts. not the ultra individ
ual and daring elegants.
Coiffures are showing striking
changes and the dressmakers are re
sponsible for the transformation. A
frock of a certain period demands at
least u modified version of the coif-
fur < ? of the same period , and when the
pendulum of fashion swung back to
the first empire and directoire ver
sions of the classics , It was n fore
gone semblance of classic lines. The
expected happened.- Where sleek ,
smoothly brushed hair had clung so
closely to the crown , puffs and curls
and , loose fluffy coils broke forth , and
the rage has continued until the fash/
lonablc coiffure is a veritable work oi
art.
