 The club recently secured a govern ment license, paying the fee of $25 and in compliance with the new state law application was made for a state club license. During the past few months the side board has been kept open evenings. The members of the union, among whom are the most widely known musicians in town, feel that the remonstrance of the Pastors as- sociation was filed without investiga- ton.

 ARTIST, TELLS ABOUT
 U. s. GNPREPAREDNESS

Henry Reuterdahl, marine artist recently returned from Europe, de1iv- cred a forecuI lecture upon "Prepar- edness'' at the University club last night. About 100 were present.
 He exploded the theory that Amer ica could withstand invasion from abroad. stating that this country had neither the trained men nor the requi- site number for defensive purposes and attempted to show how the fn- vasion could be effected. He drew comparisons between the cost and effiv cacy of soldiers trained abroad with those of the United States. Using Swiss so1diers as an example he showed the cost to be $16 per man as against $1.000 here, attrfbuting the

Daily Fashion Talks
 BY MAY MANTON
A SMART AND PRACTICAL BROCK

ERE is one of
 the srnartest little frocks that can be found, yet 1t is absolutely 9 simple and prac- tical one for the blouse and skirt each are finished with a belt and the two are buttoned together. As a result, they are easily separated when washing is required and the two garments, are of course easier to handle than an entire frock would be. It is a very easy garment to make, too, for the blouse is cut with the Japanese sleeves and with a little opening at the front that allows of its being drawn on over the head. Here, the ma terial Is white galatea with plaid gingham and the plaids of the season are showing such lovely colors that the combina- ton is an especially, attractive one, but children are wearing; a great many diff ferent materials thisi season and simple asI this design is, it allows of generous variation. Color with white. either blue or rose color or the fashionable buff, would be charming, or, striped material could be used in place of the plaid, or plaid or check could be used for the blouse with a plain color for, the skirt and trim. ming, or striped ma, terial could bo used throughout, cut lengthwise for the blouse perhaps and crosswise for the skirt to give variety. In the back view. white linen Is shown with frills of hand. kerchief lawn and a very dainty frock re- suits. Blue or rose
