A SMART FRocK OF BoRDERED BATIsTE

THERE are so
many fashion
able bordered
fabrics this season
that this frock, which
is made with straight
lower edges and es-
pecially ad a p t G d
thereto, will be sure
to be welcomed. The
skirt is just a plain
gathered one and
when the embroidery
is used, the blouse is
cut in two pieces
with the edges meet
ing at the back, so
that it is very little
labor to make and is
exceedingly dressy in
effect. The shirrcd
chcnisette or guimpe
portion is a pretty
feature. Here the
material is batiste,
but the voiles and
Crepes are wonder
fully beautiful this
season and there are
also lovely lawns and
elimities and many
novelties, bordcrcd
and without Dor
ders, and as a
matter of course,
plain material always
can be used. In the
back view, one of
these if finished with
a little banding at
the edge of the hem
and it will be seen
that the back is cut
all in one piece. If a
still more dressy
frock is wanted,
crepe de chine could
be used with sash
of ribbon, either silk
or velvet, and the
sash can be bowed
at the back or finished
in girdlc style as may
be more becoming,
but for the coming
summer nothing
could be prettier thar

LONDON, Oct. l6.-''The Morning

for n decisive stand by the Allies
regarding Greece. and the use OF
coercive measures, II necessary, to
insure the safety Of the Salonica

which promises nothing more than
TO remain neutral. since that prom

that case II remains for the navics
of the Entente powers TO treat
Greece az an enemy.

GARRISON'S PLAN

QUICK APPROVAL
Believed Acceptable to

tFrom The ribune Bureau

Washington, Oct. 16.-Army men gave
their hearty approval to-day TO Secre-
tary Gsrrison's plan 10 increase the
army to about one million men. Many
Of them admitted that the programme
was far short Of what the nation ought
70 have, pointing particularly 10 the
brief training of the proposed 'conti-
mental" army, but they said il was bet
ter than anything they had expected.
Politicians who favor big army said
that the Secretary had recommended
about all that could be reasonably ex-
pected from the present Democratic
Congress.
In administration circles Secretary
Garrison was hailed to-day as political
strategist Of the first rank His pro-
gramme is held to be satisfactory to
those who favor adequate preparation
for war and at the same time accept
able to the advocates of economy. Up
to this time il was believed that the
two elements were irreconcilable, but
officials declared to-day that Mr.. Gar
rison had presented a programme that
could not reasonably be opposed by

While it is admitted that an in

600 would normally be strenuously op-
posed by large Democratic element in
Congress, the promises Of Secretary
Garrison's plan, it is believed, are out
of all proportion to the expenditure in

of all factions will unite in supporting
the programme and will be reinforced
by most Republicans.
