WAR TRADE ACTIVITY.

The Boston Transcript for July 10,
devotes almost page of news to trade
activities, all of which indicate the eff
feet, directly and indirectly, of the
European war. Secretary Red6eld,
the eXportometer of the administra-
ton, tries to minimize the effect of
war on our export trade. From this
page OF the Transcript the following is
CLEANED:
O THE Mount Vernon-Wood
bury Mills are running full time, with
prospects more encouraging than at
any previous time for years. Untitled
orders on hand on July lst amounted
to 100000 pounds, principally for
khaki cloth and cotton duck to be for
warded to Europe"
~ Business has been execution
ally good at the plant of the Seekonk
Lace company, Pawtucket, R. l., in
the past lew months, war conditions in
Europe assisting largely in the extra
demand"
80 Representatives of local linen
houses New York; report that both
scotch and Irish manufacturers have
been disappointed greatly over the
~ vi udN shipments from Russia
They report that Russian mills are
using much larger quantities of flax
than usual for bandages and other
hospital supplies"
(4 AN import factor in the pres
ent trade activity in Philadelphia is
an overwhelming demand for cotton
And wool mixture socks for the French
army; This demand is keeping the
wheels of Philadelphia mills merrilv
htumming. One Pennsylvania manu-
tacturer has said that his concern has
booked such volume of business that
he tears his mills cannot turn out the
orders. This applies to the hosiery
schedule which was cut to the quick by
the Underwood tariff, and which the
European war has rcsusciatcd.
And yet Secretary Redfield. in his
address to the United States Chamber
~ Commerce. at its annual meeting
February 18th, said: 81 beg of Won
gentlemen, not to be persuaded by the
daily news columns of the press into
the belief that our foreign trade lies

or better name, war orders That is |
not So. And the audience smiled

We warrant our potatoes to be kind and gentle, and to not fade or warp or run down at the heels. We will bust this outside potato monopoly with our two sacks of ALASKA potatoes or go broke in the attempt. (Un- less we sell those two sacks of po- tatoes, We are broke, anyway, for we have guaranteed to deliver two barrels of flour to the Belgians for those two sacks of potatoes, and if the potatoes are left on our hands we see our finish).

TROUBLE AHEAD

Fairbanks News-Miner: In times like these It takes but little to start trouble. People who live leighbors to each other may get along nicely for years and be the best of friends, but some day one of them steps upon the others material toes and the trouble starts.
 For four years we have lived at peace and harmony with "The House of Quality" which Is on the corner opposite us. They sell potatoes an we sell paper and ink. We buy their potatoes and they buy our paper and ink, and We have never crossed each other. Today however, in the in terests of the CAUSE, We have gone Into the potato-selling business, and before night it Is probable the trou- ble will commence.
 We only have two sacks Of po- tatoes to sell, but Ee have to sell them. Beyond that point, We have no intention or desire to interfere with the business of ''The House of Quality" upon it's own grounds.
 "The House of Quality" has out side potatoes to sell, and maintains that they are the best potatoes ev- CT born, and they, charge 12h cents per pound for them, OUR potatoes

SCHOOLGIRL DRESS

Schoolgirls with painted and powdered faces were instanced aS the most horrible example at hand by a woman who addressed a gathering of her sex in Washing lon, D. C., 8, few evenings ago in advocacy of more simple dress for America's younger daughters. Par ticulgrly to- mothers having no need to count. the cost she ap- pealed for correction of the over dressed ; schoolgirl mistake, saying a whole school ., Or: community might De injuriously affected by an example of extravaganza set by . few girls.
 The subject is by no means new. It has often been agitated by club women, particularly in the con- mencement season. In some cases remedial measures have been adopted, simplicity of dress being ordained by school regulations. This, however, Is usually In private schools, not patronfzsd by families requiring to practice economy. Then, too, there Is such a thing as costly simplicity in dress. In the public high school, where cost ly ways of dress or amusement on the part of either girls or boys may do the greatest harm, apparently no effective means Of correction has been found, If the effort has been made.
 Granting that the evil exists and produces lamentable results of envy, emulation. eItravagance, class consciousness and the like, its elimination would appear to be a work of education rather than regulation. The Washington wo- man Is evidently on the right track The eyerdresSed schoolgirl will dis appear instantly from the class room If only her mother can be persuaded to the belief that an overdressed child .zadEertisea the presence of ignorance as well as money in Che family; that, in brief mothers possessed of good taste and social position do not permit sueh things.
 As to the paint and powder, the case seems slightly different, eos metics being comparatively inex- pensive and the economic phase be- ing absent. It may be some school girls paint and powdqr because they cannot afford to initiate their overdressed mates in more costly respects. It might be hoped that iu this, too maternal enlightenment and influence could work a cure, for the condition is naturally very shocking. But the powdered and painted mother who labors with her erring daughter on the subject of face decorating will have to draw some very convincing distinc- tions between goose and gosling.
