APPEAL To WOMEN
TO AID IN DEFENSE
Special Relief Society to Arouse
Their Interest in Need Of
Preparedness.

NEW YORK. Sept. lin ali effort to
arouse the interest Of women Of the
country to the need Of preparing for
war and winning their assistance In the
great campaign now on, the Special Re-
lief Society. has issued an appeal to
American women to do their share In
defending American ideals Of liberty.
peace and honor.
Events of the last year have made II
plain" says the appeal. lust how easily
solemn peace treaties are violated. Just
how suddenly war may come. and also
what heavy penalties are paid for un-
preparedness. and. while war Is a thing
greatly to be deplored. and should be.
If possible. avoided. still II seems the
greater part OF wisdom that we should
face conditions as they exist today. botn
here and abroad.
Invitation To Aggression.
"Non-resistance and lack OF strength,
1t appears are sometimes an invitation
to aggression. and this. we believe, is
something Of which we should take note
at once. Not that war Is n thing Of
the immediate future: yet II war is
ever to come the mere instinct Of self
preservation directs that women, too.
should be prepared to defend American
ideals of liberty. peace and honor.
preparation, as we have come to see
1t. means preparation today; and at this
moment. when the men are doing their
nart to insure ua protection from war.
| Gre are many things with which
women could be concerned. One thing
America women can do today is to
| urge instant action by Congress. An
other big opportunity lies in aiding the
special preparedness already begun by
the Special Relief Society. This society
has undertaken to complete at once A
nationwide organization OF women for
questions OF preparedness, btu acting
| upon them as well. in these times of
peace"
Offer Summer Homes.
The society announces that many
members Of the organization already
have offered their summer homes to be
used as hospitals in the event Of war,
and 1t IL desired that the list be IN
creased without delay. The society has
prepared suitable specimen kits for the
regular and volunteer army, kits for
hospital and ccnvaleIents. and Il is
now compiling Il list of sewing clubs
which may be called upon at any time
for the preparation Of garments needed
in the field
The society also will keep a register
Of those who would volunteer their SER
vices In connection with war relief work
IN this country. and also Of volunteer
field and hospital nurses, training
schools. and Of possible contributors Of
materials and funds for war relief pur-
poses.

DESCRIPTION OF DRESS.

A charming exponent Of this style
Of dress II tho ono I am showing to-
day. Al tho loft is suggested a pretty
manipulation of tho corduroy which
presents an effect quite out OF the
ordinary. Realising the delightful
simplicity gained by such n treat
ment. tho frock dispenses with all
adornment except for the line OF
trimmed buttons which define the
opening down tho front. Tho begin
ming and ending of this opening 10
nteresting-starting as n short slash
tinues down the skirt to where the
lower part 10 attached. nearly to tho
knees. This being merely "A part Of
the cut of tho frock, the real opening
Is In tho back where II closes in
visibly. but the belt fastens there
with two buttons. Two buttons are
also placed on tho back OF each sleeve
whore the bell fiare begins.
On tho model at tho right I have
suggested sleeves Of contrasting ma
teriai from the waist and rest Of the
frock, but corresponding with the
straight belt. or black satin. they
would combine effectively with dark
blue serge or light weight broadcloth
In . medium color. or novelty woollen
material, while n fine lace or batiste
collar would supply the necessary
dainty touch. A line OF tiny satin
buttons on the right side of the satin
corded opening introduces q bit Of
the black on the skirt.
For wear right now velvet would
be pretty for the sleeves and bolt,
with any woollen material Cor the
rest Of tho frock. Later on satin or
net could supplant the velvet As
sleeves, II desired.
