Plan Public Golf Links at the National Capital
Wonderful Attortmtnt of th Decorative Onet Arn Shown, and No Costume U Complete Without tht Fullest Quota
WASHINGTON. President Wilson's new commissioners for the Dis
trict of Columbia are planning to provide the national capital with public golf links, and golfers already are wagering that when the new links are available the chief executive will be found playing on them. At present he gives the two socalled fashionable golf clubs the goby and motors over the hills of Vir
ginia, where the common folks maintain the Washington Golf cub. The membership of the club is made up mainly of government clerks and other persons who have to look sharp to make both ends meet financially. Tho temoeraey of the playground seem ppeal to the president. All golfers aö e that golf is played for either one or two purposes exercise or pleasure. you play a good
game, you play for msure. If your game is bad, you pla for exercise

Wanted Senator to Look Up a Prospective Wife
T-HB other day Senator Knute Nelson was startled by the receipt of a letter which contained the following clipping from a publication called Cupid's Column. His surprise grew as he read the clipping, which was as follows: "2783 Washington, D. C. I am a young widow, twenty-five years of age. No children; 5-6, 130 pounds, blonde hair, prray eyes, very good form, good
disposition, French Methodist; have a , small income; like both city and country life. Would like to corre- . 8pond with some young man matrimonially inclined. See my photo." To the right of this touching missive was a picture, also clipped from a newspaper, of a remarkably pretty girl, wearing a low collar and an elaborate picture hat. The senator, who is over seventy years of age and married, at once began to suspect that some widow had her eyes on him. But taking another look into the envelope he found the following letter and a photograph of a voung man. The letter read: "I am mailing- your picture and
your description," said the note, "to the city of Washington, D. C. I hope
you will get it and write to me at

much more to that effect On tne back of this was written:
"Dear Senator: This young woman lives in your city. Please look her up for me, as I want to marry her. I put her photograph outside the envelope, but the postoffice authorities returned it to me. If you will look her up and tell her to write me I will be much obliged to you and will remember your kind favor." All the senator said when he dropped the envelope and its contents into'the wastebasket was: "He wants me to open a matrimonial agency for his special benefit Now, Til do any number of things for the people, but 111 be blamed if I will do that"

In this way a better quality of silk, satin, pongee or washable fabric can be used, deeper seams can be taken, a better fitting and fastening can be secured, and, of course, immense satisfaction. Crepe de chine is one of the favored fabrics, giving clinging lines, excellent wear and a novelty that is always attractive. Crepes de chine are purchasable in washable varieties in all colors. They combine excellently
with fine or coarse laces and are easily plaited, retaining the accordion or knife plaitings for a gratifying length of time. Petticoats must be well fitted over
the hips and constructed on straight lines. A slight fullness is allowable at the back, for suits and dresses are showing gathers here and no bulkiness under straight panels need be feared. To give ease of walking, petticoats are showing slashes at the side.

Remove the beets from the water, peel, dice, season with salt, pepper and butter and place in serving dish. Drain the greens, chop and season, and place around the beets.
