More than one fifth of the entire

THE WEIGHT OF WAR

A prominent citizen said RECENTLY
that he had most pronounced views
or the great war, but that he never
discussed the subject, because he
had friends, both social and business
whose views he knew were antagon.
istic to his, and argument would
change nothing except possibly his
friendships. But" he continued.

There is daily waiting or news and

must increase in relation to the last
battles in the north Of France along
the channel coast in which the Brit.

sides, which, the reports agree. was
greater than anything that has so

HELPS FOR THOSE
WHO SEW AT HOME

Home made clothes are always a
problem in the making often trial
In the wearing, unless the home sew
er Is an expert. And when the pres
ent styles first appeared, the task
of the home sewer seemed more hope
less than ever. For what could be
more easily spoiled than the long,
loose basque and the full circular
skirt? Are We not still troubled over
memories of the sagging, uneven
skirt that was the product of the
home when circular skirts were last
in fashion?
AS time has gone on, the task of
the home sewer this autumn is no
more difficult than usual. And in
some ways it is easier.
For as fashion has developed, the
circular skirt can be avoided. The
narrow, straight skirt Is easy to
handle. And over it can be hung a
circular or gathered tunic. The UNI
even line at the bottom OF the tur
ic Is not noticeable as 1t would be
at the bottom of the skirt. Moreover,
the tunic can be cut in points, front
and back or it can be cut in big seal
lops, piped with satin, both OF which
methods of treatment make It easier
to hang. For little sag, of half an
inch, Is hardly noticeable in a tunlc
with scalloped or pointed edge.
The long basque Is difficult, in
most women's hands. And the long
waist line must be produced in some
way IL the new silhouette is to be
effected.
One way to produce 1t without &C.
tually making long bodice is to use
wide girdle fitted in wrinkles from
bust to hips on a lining. A pattern
for this girdle can be bought, and
its making Is then comparatively
easy. Another way to produce It is
with deep yoke on the skirt which
Is not difficult to handle.
There are sold some very smart
little velvet jackets that reach to
the hips. Some of them are laced
under the arms and are put over the
head and some Of them are buttoned.
They could be made jart OF a satin
dress and would give in very good
manner. the smart line that pre-
scribes a long, straight waist. These
little jackets are nicely made, and
cheap-two things In their favor. A
very good one costs not more than
four and half dollars. They are
sleeveless and are supposed to be
worn over satin or lace bodice.
Then there are waistcoats in We,
lours and in pique and in other fab.
RIGS. They are not as much worn as
August indications made Us think
they would be worn, but neverthe.
less they are In good style and they
do form a good finish to a home made
frock. So do girdles. and these can
be bought in dozens OF differen,
styles.
And of greatest help, there is ready
made neckwear. Nobody, nowadays
almost nobody, at any rate. makes
neckwear. The shops are so full
of 1t, in tempting forms that every
one buys It. And the beauty OF 1t
Is that 1t is inexpensive and can,
therefore. be changed now and again
for newer piece, thus adding the
really latest touch of style to your
home made gown.

IN ADDRESS OF PRESIDENT
AT ANNUAL CONFERENCE.
Declares That Every Branch Of Vast
I Work Of Church Has Improved
During Past Year, and Predicts
Greater Improvement in the
Future.

Salt Lake City.-A spirit Of optim
Ism prevailed at the eighty fourth
conference of the Church of Jesus
Christ of Latter.day Saints held in
this city April 4th TO 9Th. inclusive
two sessions being held each day.
President Joseph f. Smith, al
though suffering from a heavy cold
made the opening address, and was
in most optimistic mood, declaring
that the church is stronger, more unit
ed aud in generally better condi
tion today than 1t has ever been. The
president quoted statistics to show
that every branch of the vast work
of the church had improved during
the past year, and showed evidence
of greater Improvement in the future
Therefore, the Latter-day Saints had
reason to be optimistic.
Members were urged to put forth
greater effort in an endeavor t. fulfill
their duty To the church. They were
shown wherein they erred, and ad
vised as to how they could better
their physical, mental and spiritual
condition.
President Smith spoke of those who
had worked against the interests Of
the church and said that he believed
that In time those who falsely ma
llgned the people of God would be.
come ashamed of themselves and
would cease to wag their tongues.
George Albert smith, member of
the quorur of apostles, who spoke at
the opening session, urged his hear
ers to take the words of the presi.
dent home, with the idea of improv.
ing their daily lives.

Ties, were the speakers, church oh.
serVanee, marriage and prohibition
being discussed. Apostle Grant cleo.
trihed the gathering with a powerful
oratorical attack on the liquor traffic
and declared that If the Saints were
given chance to vote on state wide
prohibition. there would be an end OF
the liquor business in Utah. Apostle
Clawsons address was largely doc
trinal, dealing with the divine au
thority of the church and dwelling
with emphasis upon the covenant OF
marriage for time and eternity Apos
