American Men Unfit
For War, Says Doctor

Cambridge, Mass, March 21.--"The
American citizen is physically unfit for
military duty" declared DR.. Dudley A.
Sargent of Harvard, yesterday. Lack
of proper physical training is the
cause.
"Our forefathers were pioneers. men
of hardihood, courage and indomitable
will. used to a wholesale mingling of
mental, moral and physical hardships
and trials. Since that time the paths
have grown easier, and weaker stock
has followed in the trails blazed by the
strong. Love of country, manly vigor
and the spirit of cooperation are not
too plentiful.
mo people living under the trying
conditions of our complex modern life
can, in any considerable proportion,
withstand the hardships of modern
warfare, to say nothing of rendering
service, unless they pay considerable
attention to counteracting the devital-
izing and overspecializing tendencies
of modern working and living con-
ditions."

"Oh, no" said Carrie. "I don't
want to wait. If we cannot find what
we want here we can go elsewhere,
Miss King"
humoredly led the way toward an
other mahogany suite little fur
ther down the aisle.
Helen walked with Carrie and she
said, as she saw a suite of white
ivory, You wouldn't want to look
at white ivory, would you, Carrie -
mo, / should say not" snorted
Carrie, in much the same manner
that Warren had when he wanted to
express contempt THAT is the most
impractical thing that any one could
possibly suggest. | always said that
If 1t had not been for Louise, Bob
would never have invested his money
in anything so foolish"
81 think it is lovely" Helen said
enthusiastically. 81 know that Louise
was advised not to get it. but she has
never had a bit Of trouble"
Carrie Doesn't Like tt
I'VE have few complaints" said
the salesman, who had overheard the
last remark: "of course it's like every
thing else of the kind if care is
taken the thing will last longer"
This is the suite / meant" said
Miss King, turning around sudden
~. She had gone on ahead, and the
salesman, who apparently had some
confidence in her judgment courte-
ously let her point out the good and
had points of the suite herself.
This hasn't the wicker" she ex-
planned, but the fact is frequently an
advantage. The beds are lower, too,
than that set you looked at first, and
the entire thing isn't so expensive
three hundred dollars, without the
bedding"
Carrie examined the suite minute
ly, but decided that it would not
do. Helen did little more than fol-
low the others around, and she al
most determined TO go home once,
but the thought of Warren's readi-
ness 10 take his sisters part in the
quarrel that was sure to follow re-
strained her.
They looked at every mahogany
piece in the store. Miss King in

satisfy her. Something was wrong
in every case. Helen had visions

ner when she was already tired out.
And finally, as a desperate method
of interference, she suggested lunch,
and that they talk it over while they
ate.
Carrie would not be convinced, and
even after she had expanded a little
over her coffee she was determined to
try elsewhere. They finally decided
to try Lacy's, and as they we're going
down in the elevator they were all
three silent. Suddenly Carrie piped
up and said:
"I think that after all will look
over that last suite. Miss King. Per-
haps we may be better satisfied than
we were" And then to Helen: TITS
not an easy matter to select a large
article of this kind" This last was
said with so near an attempt at gra-
ciousness that Helen was too much
surprised to respond at all. ..

Helen was TO meet Carrie and go
With a professional shopper to buy

had been chosen to accompany Car
rfe Helen could not determine. IF
the had known that Carrie had asked
her rather than Louise because she
inew that Helen would put up with
ler disagreable disposition better.
Helen might have been indignant. AS
was she hated to go with Carrie
When Fred had asked her to do 1t
US a favor, however, she hadn't the
'teart to refuse. Good natured Fred
was so obviously in need of someone
TO take pity on him.
Helen had demurred at the idea of

Carrie need professional and the aid
# her sister-in-law, too? But as Fred
explained, Helen was to help Carrie
With her personal taste while the wo-
man was to point out disadvantages
ind vice versa.
Helen saw Carrie sitting primly on
the edge of her chair as soon as the
elevator let her off at the furniture
department of Maltby's where they
had decided to meet. With her was
4 slim little woman with faded china
blue eyes and a look of brickness that
did not go at all with the rest of her
appearance. Carrie introduced her as
Miss King, and Helen smiled sweet
ly.
''TIave you been looking around p"
she inquired of Miss King.

little woman in a business-Iille tone
of voice. I'm fact we Just came a
moment before you did"
Helen DisagrccS
Carrie rose majestically and the
three proceeded toward hte bedroom
suites. n salesman came up and
the task Of war began. Carrie in
the first place had really no idea of
just what she wanted. Miss King
knew her business and was extraor-
dinarily well acquainted with the
stock. She talked furniture with the
salesman as though she had been
brought up on catalogs and Helen
listened admirinGly.
Carrie wanted thoroughly up
to date suite with twin beds. and
she thought she wanted mahogany.
They looked at a very gorgeous suite
with wicker inset. The beds were
fitted out with beautiful mattresses
of deep orange, and the entire effect
was magnificent.
This is the handsomest suite we
have in the store" the salesman SAID
in explanation.
"Ies, but so utterly for show and
not for use," said Helen before she
thought.
"Oh, not that, Mrs. Curtis" said
Miss King.
What I meant to say was that so
handsome a suite is almost too much
for people who have not unlimited
means"
Carrie, of course, chose to take
exception TO this remark.
What is. the price of this?" she
said haughtily.
-Four hundred and seventy dol
lars, madam; four pieces"
Carrie Looked a little crestfallen
and Helen rejoiced wickedly.
"That is expensive" Carrie said,
with as little surprise as she could
manage.

A combined railway and wagon
road lift bridge across the Arkansas
river, near Pine Bluff, Ark, has been
built with lift towers which may be
transferred from one portion of the
bridge to another: the reason for this
unusual construction being that the
navigable channel is likely to change
at times, due to the shifting sands
that form the rivers bed. The lift
span is similar in design and dimen-

1t would be hard to find two materials
that combine TO give a prettier effect
than chiffon with gros de Londres over
bodice. The contrast is an exceedingly
good one and both fabrics are charming
in themselves. The gown is q very
graceful and attractive one and at the
same time very simple one. The hounces
are straight that can be either plated or
gathered and they are arranged over a
plain foundation. The little under-bodice
consists of a lining which is faced at the
arn-holes and to which the sleeves are
attached, and the full yoke is arranged
over it. The over-bodice is the simplest
garment in the world to make. 1t is
closed at the back and the pretty fullness
under the arms is held by ornamental
buckles. In this case the buckles are
rhinestones. The gown can be copied in
many different materials and it will be
pretty to make the founces and over
bodice of taffeta for example, with just
the under-bodice of net or chiffon or of
all-over lace, or, net can be used for both
the hounces and under-bodice with the
over-bodice only of the silk Crepe de
chine could be treated In much the same
way to be charming and georgette crepe
is most attractive, for it is little thinner
than crepe de chine and consequently
little more light and airy in effect.
For the medium size the bodice will
require, "a of yard of lining material SO
inches wide with ~ yards 36 or IA
yards A. for the full yoke and sleeves
and g of yard of material 80 inches
wide or n yard A for the over-bodice;
for the skirt 21S yards 80 inches wide will
be needed with 4% yards 80 or 3 yards
a. for the founces.
The pattern of the bodice 8so3 and the
skirt 9o22 are both cut in sizes for I6 and
Is years. They will be mailed to any
address by the Fashion Department Of
this paper, on receipt of ten cents for each.
