Tk. t EV YORK and all the akattng world wonders In an off renting nio
IV I nient, Juot why they are so skate-mad thu Reason.
JL T Vogue, that faithful chronlrlpr of whim and whlnmle, ad-
mils It Is hard to run a fad to Its lair, but that a wise analyst has
said since the world has learned to dance and acquired nlmbleness of feet,
It roust spend tfils newly acquired nlmbleness In more than one form of ac
tivity. Another heavy thinker of New York blames bridge for the skating folly.
This Is the way It really is, so far as I can make out from all they are
eying: Heads have bwo tired out with all the brain work necessitated by
the bridge playing of the last twelve years, and society, after dwelling upon
such heights of intellectuality, takes a sudden tumble. The world of fash
ion must needs now give Us high brows a well deserved rest, meanwhile us
ing the heels.
But, when the heels will be tired in a year or two, on what high plane
of Intellectuality will Bon Ton rise in order to fill Its limitless capacity for
food for rcul and mind?
Bridge again, most probably the wfae ones answer.

Splendor-But Safety First
Picture to yourself the bright dancing eyes of
jthe kiddies as they get their first glimpse of the Christ
imas tree sparkling with scores of brilliant little electric lights.
Think, too," of the danger from fire
when candles are used on a tinder-like tree
covered with inflammable articles.
Make this an Electric Christmas
from Christmas tree lights to gifts.
Electrical gifts combine good taste, appropriate
ness and usefulness.
