In the attack, Sandford worked hard at inside-right and took the honours for two of the goals scored by his side. Fowler, on the right wing, was ever a source of danger, While Smith and Wride combined to a nicety.

Portugal, on the whole, gave a most disappointing display in their match against Wales. A V. Gosano did yeoman service in the centre-half berth but he received meagre support from Beltrao and Delgado.

V. Costa was the best in the de fence and did some good powerful Licking. Bouza, in goal, lacked conádence.

B. Gosáno was a fine leader of the Portuguese attack but was poor in his shooting. Bantos never appeared to be able to find his feet.

Tatler, leader of the Welsh at- tack, was outstanding with his unorthodox methods of approach

Knitted dress has been taken

over by dolls even more than by human beings, and there is, the same lovable quality about knit- ting as about a cat. But knitting should include a cap, gloves per- hape, a little bag, or these should. be added to them in a different material. Grown-ups like costume Colla Children usually like dolls as much like themselves as Bos- sible, or younger. A baby doll is always popular, but the excellent baby dolls made to match the baby In the nursery are not always en- joyed as much as less good ver- sians, because they are so often hard The reason & Teddy Bear fund so much favour was because it was soft and woolly Dolls', bodies are always liked more li they are soft, though this' softness; can be achieved sometimes by: clothes...
