The wise mother of small sons and
daughters of school age is already
thinking of autumn school clothes for
them. While lessons begin long be
fore summer frocks and suits are laid
aside, yet to secure a choice of fabrics
and styles it la necessary to plan
school wardrobes early.
It is well to have little girls wear
cotton and linen dresses as late as
possible. Wee school women are nev
er more attractive than in a freshly
laundered costume. When the mother
has knowledge of the temperature of
the school-room she can keep her
small daughter In wash dresses until
frost comes. But with thin frocks a
heavy coat is necessary for out-of-door
wear.

Because of the progress made wUli
flying machines, aviators will soon
become ns numerous as chauffeurs.
Aviators are a desperate lot of good
looking young men. Those who don’t
have cute little mustaches, possess
flashing eyes and earless smites. They

a tiny red enameled button. Two
small ornaments of soutache are be

The skirt of the sailor suit is made

from this to meet In an inverted plaL

braid. White is used that the braid
may frequently be taken off and wash

adorns the guimpe and the U. 8. naval

A pretty school hat for the first
school days is of shirred silk. It is
suitable for a little girl of nine. The
brim turns down. The silk is of dark
blue and the hat is trimmed with

“Smoked a cigaret nonchalantly."
“Swooped down like a swallow.”

“Dared death with a smile.”
An aviator receives on the average

is in the air.
A week before the meet the avlar
tors arrivo. With them come special
ly made freight cars with doors at
the ends. These contain the air
ships.
Before this the hangars have been
built, a row of low wooden sheds
with doors wider than the one on
grandpa’s barn. And screened win
dows, too, where eager citizens may
have a peek for two bits apiece.
The machines are then put togeth
er. The aviators do not soil their
hands with this work. They sit
around headquarters and send out
for cigareta while the mechanicians
put the machine together.
Aviators do not talk much about
the dangers of their calling. They
make Jokes about 1L For instance,
Brookins of the Wright school, was
asked for some advice. He said:
"If your engine stops when you aro
over the water and you haven’t a
life preserver handy, unscrew the pro
peller blades, climb out on the left
wing, tuck a blade under each arm
amt leap. Be sure, however, that you
have an idendlftcation card between
your teeth.
“Again. If your engine stops and
the machine gives evidence of being
about to turn somersaults, climb out
on tbe tail and keep its head up. If
the machine does not respond, but
continues to dip, shake its tall."
Aviators are a contented lot. They
arc always sure of winning n prize.
If one cannot win the record for
height he can. at least, take a prize
for executing the most perfect fig
ure eight, or for going up more
times in a single afternoon or smok
ing the most clgarets or something.
One of the most dramatic things
that ever happened to an aviator was
