INSIST ON FREQUENT CHANGE
Winter Asserts Women Are to Blame
for the Variations of Styles
In Clothes.

Women want something new to wear
every few months. The absolute
truth of this statement is what puts
the world of women against reformers.
1t is easy to read and write reams of
theories as TO why women should not
indulge in the caprice of new
clothes and, with delightful ingenious
ness, these dress reformers put the
blame on the style-makers and shops,
ignoring the fundamental truth that
the blame should be placed on the
women.
Those who are sincere and those
who are insincere but want to be
places, do not go far enough into the
clothes question when pleading for
dress reform.
What normal woman would want to
be robbed Of her privilege of seein
new clothes and buying them when
ever 1t is possible? What healthy
minded woman would want to go
through life wearing the same gown,
cut on the same lines and preserved,
or copied, from season to season?
Mary Garden, the opera singer, an
swered this whole question once in an
interview on the deck Of steamer,
when she was sailing for Paris. 1t
was at the height of the great hubbub
concerning the question of American
clothes only.
The reporter called up from the
gangplank. "When, In your opinion,
will American women wear American
clothes only and show their patriot
ism?"
"When they're dead" she called out
over the rail. "They can't protest
against an American shroud. '-EX-

It was a strenuous time, MT. Daw- son said, and he was happy at last to get into Holland, and secure passage to America on the New Amsterdam.
 Three Christmas Days
 Among other things, MT. Dawson had the unusual experience of cele- brating Christmas three times during his stay of not two years. He was in Germany in 1914, and in 1915 enjoyed a Bulgarian Christmas thirteen days after spending the same holiday in Serbia. This is due to a difference in time between the two nations. He re- lates also an amusing incident where an Austrian officer was swearing at his soldiers, because they spoke Eng fish at such times as they did not wish to be understood. All of them had been in America, and this ac- counts greatly, MT. Dawson says, for the love manifested for this country across the water. Many of them have relatives living here.
