MORE ABOUT SHIRT WAISTS.
How to Wear Them and What to
Wear With Them.

How to Wear Them and What ia
Wear With Them.
Nowadays almost every woman wears
a shirt waist. But very few women
know how to wear one properly. It is
an art in itself.
More often than not the shirt waist
disguises the prettiest curves of the
form. 1t is not put on properly and not
held in place correctly, consequently it
loses all it's smart effect. 1t wrinkles
the gathers spread and, it has an un-
slightly bouffant effect in the back, in
stead of clinging to the figure with trim
smoothness.
The woman of fashion is just as par
ticular in the way she adjusts her
shirt waist as she is the bodice Of her
evening gown.
Ever since the shirt waist first ap-
peared the safety pin has been used to
keep it in place. But the shops are con-
tinually displaying shirt waists and
skirt supporters, many of which are an
Improvement over the safety pins.
Something new and successful in
keeping the shirt waist in place is a
belt with band of thin nickle at the
back, which is provided with two slots.
There are also three catches to adjust
the belt so that the shirt waist will be
kept in place and also the waist and
skirt held together. First, take one
catch with the hook turning up and
pin it through the back of the shirt
waist exactly at the waist line. Then
place the belt in the catch and buckle

Without question the present era finds
the wage earners of our country more
generally organized than ever before,
and also finds those organizations upon
higher and better plane than at any
previous period, says the Federationist
One of the greatest difficulties with
which the workers have always had to
contend, and which has always been a
great source Of uncertainty and conse-
Quent weakness, was the occurrence of
alternating periods of integration and
disintegration. Almost as surely as the
oscillation of the pendulum, there would
be a great growth in the membership
of the unions and then just as surly
would an era of decline set in. These
recurring periods of decline brought
with them the most trying ordeals for
the workers. Rapid growth impressed
the unions with belief in their power
which they did not really possess, and
led them to leap for results which they
were only in walking condition to OBJ
tain. Defeat invariably followed such
rash attempts, and brought on discour-
agement, leaving an impression on vast
numbers Of workers that they were alb
solutely impotent to protect themselves
from tyranical treatment or the grasp
ing greed of employers.
The trade union, the natural outcome
of the historic development of the work
ing class, has organized the workers,

demarcation between the unions of the

comprehensive federation, we assert
that it is the recognition by the work.
ers of the imperative necessity of this
twofold unity Of trade and class, to-
gether with the necessity Of providing
means by which successful trade con-
tests may be fought, that is bringing
about greater degree Of permanency
in trade union organization and a.
standard of stability destined to con-
stantly increase with time. !

cial and moral life. And 1t also means
that the forward step of labor will no
longer be followed by retreat.
1t argues we'll for the abolition Of
these recurring periods of rapid growth
and decline, that one after another Of
the more intelligent and disciplined un-
ions are establishing adequate protec-
tive and benevolent funds upon a ma
