overblouse frocks; they offer such q
wonderful chance for economy. The
overblouse itself requires such a small
amount Of material that there is no
reason why one should not have q
one-piece dress instead Of merely a
separate skirt. The underblouse may
be of net, chiffon or lace If the frock
is intended for afternoon wear or If
the frock is made Of serge for street
use, 1t may be of crepe de Chine or
cotton wolfe.
The model shown in No. S2571 is

If you sent our troops into wal al

If called into the field suddenly we
hould have TO go with a very small
allowance OF ammunition, even for the

we should have neither guns nor am

General Wood, in a written state

We have neither guns nor ammuni

assurance Of success II attacked by

1t is my belief that no modern war

one year, and unless private manufac-
turers are now encouraged to manu-
facture ammunition for our guns,
after war is declared they will not be
in a condition to do so until after the
