In the summer one is ae customed to seeing hatless men bat the sight is not usual in November. However in the Blue Coat School in England the pupils never wear hats va will } and are said to have splendid heads of hair.

This lad's mother was killed and he and his brothers and sisters were taken care {of in the Orphans' Home by kindly) {| Mr. and Mrs. Smeaton. He went overseas as soon as he was old| enough to go or rather looked old | enough to be passed. He was all} through the Somme battles .and| escaped unhurt. He frequently wrote | to some of the ladies who had be-| friended him and his family and when he came home in 1919 came] to see them. On Thursday he was {again in Kingston in his own car { and called on his friends who were delighted to see him. Bright faced, | with clear blue eyes, and neatly! dressed, he is at twentyeeven a credit to himself and his friends. -- That while in Toronto Her Excel-] lency, the Viscountess Willingdon, | visited St. Joseph Convent apd was | heartily welcomed by the sisters who! showed her over the building and took her into the chapel.

Cotton Frocks in Vogue. i sBoston, Nov, 13.--While ' cotton | growers of the south are wondering | what is to become of the cotton mar-| ket, Miss Marjorie Holligan of New | 1 York, style adviser for the Pacific Cotton mills, came forward with the |' news that soclety is turning to ecot- | ton dresses--a decided ray of hope for the hardpressed producer of cot-| ton. i The simple little cotton dress, | which in Grandma's day, was scored by the well-dressed woman and sel-| dom worn after the housework was | done, is fast becoming woman's sal- | vation, she said to-day while here to attend the convention of the Na-| tional Association of Cotton Manu- facturers. : "Cotton as a materia] for dresses | has deen neglected," Miss Holligan said. "But now there seems to be an awakening of interest in it, and ita popularity -- with the large purse as well as with the small--Iis coming fast. * "A smart New York shop, as an experiment, recently put in a stock | of expensive cotton dresses, design- ed mostly for sport wear. These re- tailed for only $19.75, but were ex- \pensive, neverthéless; when" we con- sider that cotton dresses cost as lit-| tle as $3. ! "The demand for these dresses | was surprisingly large--even some of the smartest dressers being among the purchasers. Society women who | bought these cotton dresses appar- ently had tired of the conventional silk." Women are becomimg more and more sensible in regard to dress in the opinion of the style adviser. "Nowadays women much prefer the sort of dress that cam be put into the wash-tub," she said. "Once upon a time ferent now. While at Newport re-| wearing cotton dresses."
