The Way of Sport Styles
§

i-- ~
Sport clothes, having come to stay,
hnve their growing strength constantly
re-enforced by wonderful new develop-
ments. Designers can be us daring us
they like so long as they know how to
turn out beautiful, If startling, new
things that are Ingenious and full of
style.
Stripes and checks, in strong con-
trasts of color, made .up In combina-
tion with plain color, have occupied our
field of vision this year, almost to the
exclusion of the odd, brilliantly colored
figures that were strewn over the sur-
face of sport clothes last yenr. These
checks and broad stripes are most
cleverly managed, and now we have
hats and turbuns made to match coats
tnd skirts. One wonders where these
new by-paths will lead, at any rate,
they run In the direction of the smart-
est Informal clothes that we have ever
known.
The sport costume pictured leaves
nothing to be desired In the way of
good style. It hits a skirt of white
shantung, with panels at the side
showing broad bands of color—In this
case a vivid green—on a white ground.
The sleeveless jacket, with narrow
belt and patch pockets, Is In the same
bright green, and large buttons on the
skirt reveal how perfectly big buttons
fit In wltrt the character of sport
clothes.
Large checks, broad stripes and
fringes have Joined forces with but-
tons to give those who think up sport
clothes every possible chance of suc-
cess. The slip-over styles In sweaters
and blouses play Into their hands, and
other allies are the new heavy weaves
In silk and the fancy shaded striped
tricots. Long, wide scarfs that may
be worn In several ways, and scarfs
that are belted und pocketed to be
worn in but one way, are made with
companion pieces in hats that match
them. A white blouse and skirt find
themselves part of a sport suit In their
company.

DELICACIES FOR OCCASIONS.
So many delicious dishes may he
prepared with gelatin as a founda-
tion, making salads and
desserts of various kinds.
With lemon jelly as a
foundation, chopped vege-
tables such ns green pep-
per, cabbage, onion und
celery, stirred Into the
. jelly and allowed toJiard-
en, may then be cut In squares, served
on lettuce with n highly seasoned
dressing. Lemon jelly muy also serve
as a dessert with chopped pineapple,
cherries or strawberries and n few
pecans, molded and served with sweet-
ened whipped cream. Lay halves of
canned peaches on lettuce leuves and
place a bnll of nicely seasoned cottage
cheese on each; pour over a salad
dressing In which a fourth of a cupful
of cottage cheese has been carefully
mixed. Canned pears may be served
in the same way.
Take nicely seasoned rich cottage
cheese, pack it In baking powder cans
and put Into lee and salt to frees*.
Unmold and cut In slices, make a de-
pression In the' center of each and
place therein a preserved fig, stem up.
Baked born With Cheese.—Take two
cupfuls of corn, mix with two well-
beaten eggs, a cupful of milk, two
tablespoonfuls of melted butter, a half
cupful of grated cheese and cayenne
pepper, with a pinch of mustnrd nnd
two teaspoonfuls of Worcestershire
sauce; add a cupful of bread crumbs,
reserving a few for the top, which are
spread over the dish after mixing well
with two teaspoonfuls of melted fat.
The simplest of all desserts and
those of which the majority are most
fond, nre the frozon dishes. Various
fruit juices or combinations of them
with the pulp of fruit, adding rich
inük or thlnr crenm, even buttermilk,
makes delicious frozen desserts. The
Juice of two oranges, two lemons with
twa cupfuls of honey nnd a pint of
thin cream frozen. Is one worth try-
ing. A little of the finely grated rind
may be added. If liked, to vary the
flavor.
Another combination well liked Is
the Juice of one lemon, two oranges,
jhree bananas, put through a potato
r, sngar to sweeten, add a pint of
. rather thin. Freeze as usual,
pney to use In various ways Is

Not that exceptional heroism In war
me has hitherto gone unrecognized
are. Since the days of the Civil war
lere has existed a congressional nied-
of honor, which, though little
nown, is regarded by many as one of
le highest military or nuviil decora-
ons to be won In uny land. This
icdnl always has been and always
ill be the most coveted honor In our
rmy and navy. But it has remained

ecommendutlon of General Pershing,
[> Institute not only several new hou-
rs, but new rules for their award,
rtilch in some respects will revolu-
lonlze American practice In such
latters. In a word, the order estub-
Ishlng our new war decorations Is
xpected to cut away much of the red
ape which enveloped, unfortunately,
lore than one American hero of the
ast.
New Decorations.
Briefly, the new war decorations In-
itiated by the president are these:
1.The distinguished service cross.
2. The distinguished service medal.
8. service chevrons.
4. 'Wand chevrons.

tions gli to the American soldier vir-
tually tí same rewaids for especial

and BrltU armies. Tie British have
their Vk-tfiii Cross lid the French
their Meddle Milltalrj and to these
the Amerlcp Congresmnal Medal of
Honor—sonkimes refa-ed to as the
"Valor Modí" or "Aiirlcan Star of
Valor"—may be said Jo correspond.
The new jmerlcnn Distinguished
Service Cross has nojxact counter-
part In the BrUsh urn, Inasmuch as
the nearest thing to I the D. S. O.,
Is offered only to office. The French
Croix de Gtierre (wlt|mlm) corre-
sponds perhaps more >sely. Tho
American Dlstlngulsheriervlce Cross
and the French Croix t> be won by
men or officers, regards of rank.
Perhaps, It was to meet is deficiency
that the British In lOKltoblished a
new military medal for |n soldiers
and noneoms. "In recooon of bra-
very In the field." wfe the two
years 42,000 of these miry medals
have been given out.

Fellow French 8yst
It Is the French system i* (0
he followed In respect to the^iing
of Amerlcnn honors, Couriluro_
Ism, bravery, or the signal V rm-
nnce of duty—at home as \t8 |„
France—are to be rewardc<fc0tit
regard to military rank. All
nls, new or old, are offered tt>ers
and men alike. More than tfiey
officer is the Congressional Medal of
Honor. This places the marines In
a strangely anomalous position with
respect to honors. While at sea, the
marines are under the navy and are
subject to the rules regarding war
medals obtaining in the navy. But
the murines now In France ore under
the army and ore technically entitled
to receive any of the new army deco-
rations.
There cun be no doubt that the
Institution o I new medals by Presi-
dent Wilson will have a beneficial ef-
fect upon the morale of the Ameri-
can troops In France. Acts of hero-
Ism—of which we have already had
more than one Instance—deserve rec-
ognition, und from the military stand-
point such recognition serves better
than anything else us a stimulus and
Incentive to nil the troops. News of
the president's action Is said to have
been received with the greatest en-
thusiasm by our men now serving In
France. >
For Extraordinary Heroism.
The Distinguished Service Cross Is
to be a bronze cross with ribbon. It
will be awarded by tho president, or
by General Pershing, to any person
who, while serving in any capacity
with the army, shall hereafter dis-
tinguish himself or herself, or who,
since April 0, 1917, has distinguished
himself or herself, by extraordinary
heroism In connection" with military
operations against an armed enemy
of the United States or under circum-
stances which do not Justify the award
of the Congressional Medal of Honor.
The Distinguished Service Medal
will also be of bronze with a ribbon,
and will be awarded by the president
to any person who, while serving In
any cnpaclty In the army, shall here-
after distinguish himself or herself or
who. since April 0 last, has distin-
guished himself or herself, by excep-
tionally meritorious service to the gov-
ernment In a duty of great responsi-
bility In time of war In connection
with military operations against an
armed enemy of the United States,
Thus It will be seen that to win the
D. S. C. it will be almost necessary
for a man to see service In France,
while the Distinguished Service Medal
may be won by a man whose duties
In the army are confined to this side
of the wuter.
Spreading Japanese Language.
One or two universities or colle
In America have Instituted a chulr nf
.Tapónese, as has the University of Lej*
den in the Netherftnds. The Japanese
lectureship was tried In Oxford far
three yeors; there Is a professorship at
Japanese In King's college. Landos,
while Japanese Is one of the subject*
that receives special attention In the
new British school of oriental lan-
guages lately established In London.
The teaching of Japanese nhrnad. an
far, has been confined to speeM
schools or seminaries, but In New
South Wales Japanese Is now being; es-
tablished In the ordinary schools aa
an Instrument of cultural disciplina
and Instruction on precisely the nam*
footing as what may be characterise#
as the great orthodox cultural lan-
guages—French and German. |
This we consider to be one of An
finest practical acknowledgments at
the Japanese entry Into the comity «C
modern culture that could possibly ba

In the rules governing the manner
and method of awarding these metíala,
as well as the Medal of Honor, rsi
.tana Is conspicuously absent Tima
was when It was a matter of monthn,
If not years, before a candidate for
the highest military or naval honor
within the power of the United Stntea
to bestow received his coveted prise!
Not so tinder the generalship of Pend-
ing. "In tho present emergency,"
reads the general order, "whenever s
recommendation for the award of the
medal of honor reaches the command-
ing general of the Amerlcnn expedi-
tionary forces In Europe, he Is au-
thorized to cable his recommendation
for Immediate action, and to hold the
papers until a reply Is received." Up-
on the approval by cable of his recom-
mendation, General Pershing, nr son*
officer whom he may delegate. Is an-
thorlzcd to go ahead and award the
medal as the representative of the
president.
It Is even provided that In extreme
cases, where the candidate for the
honor Is severely wounded and In dan-
ger of denth, the commanding general
may take matters Into his own hand*
and confer the medal without waiting
for the presidential O. K. The new
system, In short, preserves the form
of the old, while virtually leaving It
to the Judgment of the commanding
general whether a man Is entitled tn
the medal or not.
