Pa. The vessel will carry loaded freight cars between New York and New Orleans and Havana. It Is the first freight
steamer built In this country since the war. The Seatraln has four decks, with each accommodating a quarter of a
mile of tracks. A crane transfers the cars from deck to pier. Transfer of a full cargo takes 20 hours or one-sixth

Clothes for* the Kindergarten Age
By CHERIE NICHOLAS
A S IF college-going daughters ami
those of high and grammur-school
age were the only ones who must face
the "eternal-feminine" question of
dress. which the back-to-school season
always brings on ! What about the
myriads of youngsters In kindergarten
or in first-grade classes? Well, It's
mother who must solve this problem.
To be "practical" In childhood's
realm, clothes must yield kindly to
frequent tubbings. From this point
mothers are finding out that corduroy
for tiny-tot coats and any one or more
of the now-so-popular durene cotton
meshes for wee folks' frocks serve a
hundred per cent perfect.
Not only do the good looks and the
washable qualities of corduroy speak
In its favor but the fact that the mod
ern weave Is so much more supple
than the old-style corduroy ano lighter
in weight, makes this material In
finitely easier for the seamstress to
handle. And so, mothers who know
have come to consider corduroy a
medium-Ideal for the making of chil
dren's school and playtime apparel.
The corduroy coat-and hat "set"
which little Miss Curlylocki is so
proudly wearing In the plcturc might
wisely be included In the wardrobe of
I any little girl who must go back and
forth to kindergarten during crisp au
tumn days. Much to the delighi of its
wearer it has a cunning white bunny
appliqued on each pocket. A self
scarf ties In cravat fashion close up
around the throat In latest adult fash
ion. The neckline Is, however, ad
justable In that the coat can be thrown
i open, forming lapels at the front.
PREDICT VELVET
WILL BE POPULAR
Velvet Is verging on one of the big
gest vogues it has ever enjoyed iu the
fashion world.
Until recently worn mainly by the
mature or elderly woman. It has sud
denly become one of the smartest fab
rlca of the dny and French factories
arc now working day and night to sup
ply the demand for coming fall and
winter clothes.
There are many new varieties, the
heavily woven velvet and the soft light
ones, the chiffon ring variety and ve
lours mousseline, as well as an ex
tremely fine and silky sort made at
Lyons.
Dresses, coats, hats and even shoes
are being made of velvet
"Little Convict" Is New
Hat Popular in London
A new hat Is taking London by
storm. It Is less eccentric and "diffi
cult" than the boater or pillbox, which
had a brief but devastating popularity,
and Is called the "little convict." Like
the beret. It is u type of skull-cap, but
Is more formal than that charming
but abused plect of millinery.
It consists of three strip* or trian
gles, sewed to (It closelv to the head,
but with a peak coming dowi on the
forehead, taking off the bare look that
the Just-gone fashions have had, and
is seen In almost every material.
It can be adorned very successfully
with a feather or spray of flowers, or
a Jeweled clasp ? which, by the way,
doesn't really clasp anything? and
Just as successfully left quite plain.
Shirred Print#
Printed sheer costumes are shirred
so that the print Is most charmingly
blurred. Sometimes the whole frock
Is shirred and the Jacket Is left un
shlrrod ? bo that there Is a pleasant
contrast of design between the two.
CrocH?t Hiti
llrlmined hats of Irish and simple
thread crochet mesh are replacing the
brlmless crochet caps that everyone
was wearing earlier In the season.
Rough Cotton*
Not only are theae new tweedy
looking cottons especially smart for
suits and matching top coats but they
make simply grand beach coat*.
Mocners seeking materials for little
girls' school dresses are making new
discoveries In the realm of cotton fab
rics which are proving genuinely help
ful to them. They are finding smart
durene cottons so artfully woven as
to have an expensive woolly appear
ance whereas in reality they are un
bellevedly low-priced. Diagonals, ribbed
effects, basket weaves, herringbone
stripes and all sorts of fascinating
novelties are included, and in a range
of delectable colors from pastel tints
to the very latest autumn reds, greens,
navies and browns.
The oldest child in the picture is
gowned in .an attractive dress made
of durene cotton mesh. It features a
yoke which buttons up the front so
that it will slip on and off easily.
There Is also a matching bolero (in
her hand). The ball and cord tie
which Is an effective trimming touch is
easily made of yarn. The Jaunty
little durene mesh brimmed hat Is an
Interpretation of a French Juvenile
fashion. The whole outfit washes
beautifully ? comes out looking like
new from each tubbing.
A tiny-tot wardrobe would not be
complete this season without at least
one knitted costume. One can get
such "cute" little sweater-and-sklrt
outfits and In charming color combina
tions. These uiake n great point of
interesting stitch effects.

"Ladle is the
Happiest Girl"
So many mothers
nowadays talk about
giving their children
fruit Juices, as If
this were a new dis
covery. As a matter
of fact, for over fifty
years, mothers have
b e e'n accomplishing
results far surpassing anything you
can secure from home prepared fruit
Juices, by using pure, wholesome Cal
ifornia Fig Syrup, which Is prepared
Tinder the most exacting laboratory
supervision from ripe California
Figs, richest of all fruits in laxative
and nourishing properties.
It's marvelous to see how bilious,
weak, feverish, sallow, constipated,
under-nourished children respond to
Its gentle influence; how their breath
clears up, color flames In their
cheeks, and they become sturdy,
playful, energetic again. A Western
mother, Mrs. H. J. Stoll, Valley P. O.,
Nebraska, snys: "My little daughter,
Roma Luclle, was constipated from
babyhood. I became worried about
her and decided to give her some
California Fig Syrup. It stopped her
constipation quick ; and the way It
Improved her color and made her
pick up made me realize how run
down she had been. She Is so sturdy
and well now, and always In such
good humor that neighbors say she's
the happiest girl In the West."
Like all good things, California Fig
Syrup Is Imitated, but you can al
ways get the genuine by looking for
the name "California" on the carton.
