II LBOW sleeves have brought with
- them certain perpleXing little
problems, not the least among
them being the disposition of the
hand OF the long glove (when the hand
must be necessarily gloveless) without
removing the whole glove.
To tell the truth, it's not every wOm-
an, by long odds, who can wear elbow
sleeves, minus the gloves. successfully
that long line is very trying And the
custom which is everywhere in force OF
keeping on your gloves. only removing
the hand and tucking that in at the
wrist, IS anything but graceful.
It's not only ugly, either, although
that bit of bunchiness just at the slim
NEST part OF the wrist is undeniably
ugly as even its most persistent follow
ers admit; but there's nothing which so
shortens the life of a good glove as that
same rolling into a ball, more or less

that the relief committee is pauperizing
the thousands Of refugees IN this city,
practically all those who have been
prominently identified with local chari-

and protest to the relief committee. ask
Ing that the recognized charitable in

1t vas not asked that the money be

should hereafter take a back scat and
allow the rehabllitated charitable
bodies of the city TO attend to the

the funds necessary for that purpose.
II was proposed that the relief commit

the reorganized charities.
The petition was signed by many OF
those who are actively working in con-

petition was referred without discussion
TO the rehabilitation committee.
