TROUSERETTESTOCOME
At LAST THIS Spring,
Bifurcated Garments Will Adorn the
1915 Maid Pockets
Galore, Too.

Chicago. Feb. FITS to be trouser-
cites for the fashionable spring maid.
But not as Dr. Mary Walker wore EN-
Dainty chiffon pillows peeping beneath
the hem of a dancing frock like grand
mothers pantalettes. satin boomers DIS
volumnous as a harem favorite's-these
milady may nave.
But they are far different from the BIZ
furcated garment of masculine choice.
With the trouserette comes the capa-
cious feminine pocket, not tucked away
In the folds of an 1880 skirt. but hanging
conspicuously on blouse or afternoon
frock. The trouserette is introduced by
Nine. Ripley. president of the Fashion
Art League. who will also exhibit the
convenient pocket on several of her
models.
Pockets are TO be used quite extern
sively." said Mime. Ripley today. But
they are not the old-fa shioned pockets
which were concealed in the seam of the
skirt. Afternoon frocks galore will have
the highly ornamental pocket much in
evidence. Suits will be well provided
with pockets on the jackets, and even
blouses will have them.
For the trouserette it would hardly
be recognized as such. One golf costume
which will be shown at the opening vii,
have the trousers made very full. of
white satin, for use while playing on the
links"

opinion on the relative merits of the
different types Of machinery used in the
navy.
The North Dakota has been at Nor
folk for some time. It was necessary to
hoist parts Of the machinery in position

Various reports have come to the de-
partment from local observers at Nor
folk as to the amount. of actual damage
and the cost to the navy should IL be

gines Of the North Dakota ever since the

NO SHIP FOR TEN DAYS

Not a single ship will leave New York for Great Britain until
March 18th; but what of that? When the senate Republicans, assisted

street voted for. That is the sort of thing that Wall street and all its
allies were clamoring for. That is the situation that best serves the ends
of the foreign shipping interests which have the American exporters at
their mercy. All the opponents. of the presidents policy insisted that
there was n o emergency; that private interests yer abundantly able to
care for the American export trade and that the government must do
nothing to break the grip of the shipping monopoly. The country
saved from Socialism" and American exporters may take their goods to
market as best they can.

their products abroad let them consult Senator OGorman. NOBODY had
more to do with the killing of the bill by which the president hoped to

man to whom exporters should take their troubles. He a doubtless
tell them what to do. Possibly he can inprovse ships for them.
The business interests of the country allowed the subsidy crowd and
the foreign shipping monopoly to line them up against the presidents
measure. Now they must take their medicine. They wanted to be at
the mercy of private shipping interests operating under alien flags and
there they are. AS they watch the freight pile up on the piers and III
the railroad yards they must be highly pleased with their successful
campaign o vctmize themselves.
