To make the most of her cloth

She must perceive the difference

THE ANSWERS

= The question as to what becomes of the dis
charged soldiers at army posts seems to be troub-
leg some Tacoma working men.
An investigation of the facts at large existing
my establishments would convince any Taco
IAN that he faces menace from glutted labor
market by bringing an army post to Pierce county
In the first place, statistics show, 80 per cent
Of all honorably discharged soldiers return, on
Transportation furnished by Uncle Sam, to their
Original place of enlistment
n Others get into U. S. civil service positions, at
(which they have first chance under the civil serv
ice rules. Still others drift to other parts of the
country, as is natural. Only a very small per-
centage remain.
This percentage is so small, in fact, that, in the
case of the American Lake enterprise, the number
would nowhere nearly fill the demand for extra
civilian labor occasiOned by the increased business
the post will bring.

"The gentler sex no longer
dresses; it undresses," said Mrs
Amelia E. Barr, writer of many
wholesome novels, on the occasion
of her 85th birthday.
"Half-portion gowns are too
much in evidence"
Woman's dress never lacks
some feature which can be con-
demned as indicate, but the lat
est immodesty, the greatest in its
history, is the rise in its price.
Half-portion gowns are about
all the average woman can afford

band is working all the
time, striving for a living
and better conditions-he
likes his wife and seems to be
satisfied with whatever he
makes because it seems prob
ably beyond his power to
reach any further. Is she
doing the best she can? In
stead of being a comfort
and bringing happiness to her
husband and home, she is
growing weary, seeking for
more than others seem to en-
Joy. On this question l can
see that she is less efficient
and more responsible for the
happiness of her home.
Longing for what we don't
have without first trying to
better our conditions is a bad
mental habit and brings moth
ing but poverty. A person
can best live with whatever
he is satisfied. Astor's son

He was born George, and christened David.
Orphaned early he went with his mother to
live with an uncle named Lloyd.
In honor of his mothers brother the youngster
called himself not plain David George, but

In his early political career he was called Mr.
George.
But the emphasis he put on the Lloyd got peo-
pie into the habit of using also his middle name;
he became Mr.. Lloyd George
