A special dispensation from the god
dess of fashion, in the interest of thrift
ty women, lies in the present vogue for
two or more fabrics in one gown. In
all the array OF pretty frocks for after
noon wear-or any other dressy wear,
for that matter-there are hardly any
that are fashioned of just one mate
rial. If the mission of a gown is full
filled by merely looking well, it is made
of two or more materials, or of two
patterns in one material.
Thrift is mark of good breeding
in these times. Now, when the re-
sources Of this country are about to be
put to the test, women must be willing
to do with less SO that others, who
need, may have more.
But it is no great hardship to do
without new frock if an old one can
be remodeled into thing of beauty.
The gown shown in the picture offers
a good suggestion for femodeling be-
cause the overbodice and sleeves are
made Of georgette crepe, and worn
with silk skirt and underbodice. This
overbodice bears all the evidences Of
being strictly up-to-date with its wide
tucks, long sleeves and its big cape
collar of white crepe. A small triangle
Of white crepe is set in the sleeves at
the wrist.
A new bodice of this kind simply ef-
faces the memory of the dress it used
to be and makes this into dress Of
today. A new finishing touch appears

Skirts Of Wash Fabrics.

New wash skirts now being added to
the lines, says the Dry Goods EconO-
mist, are largely in plain white cotton
and linen materials, but with fair pro-
portion of novelty effects. All-white
skirts made on simple lines are by far
the best sellers, but novelty cottOns in
printed designs suggestive Of the pop

are cottons In polka-dot patterns and
in dainty stripes, plaids and checks.
Combinations of fancy and plain ma

skirts, the plain fabric being used for
bands, belts or pockets or vice versa.
There has been fair demand for
washable satin skirts, as well as for

GIRLS UNJUsTLY CRITICIZED.

1t is beginning to be hard to deter
mine whether criticism nowadays is
actuated by honesty or through jeal-
ousy or just downright desire to be
mean. OF late the Girls Military
Squad has come in for more than it's
just share of criticism, and from
sources that should be the last to point
the finger of derision, that is, if hon
est criticism was The object. 1t is
true that the Girls Military Squad is
a new thing, and as all new. things
where young ladies are concerned, is
likely to be looked upon with mild sus-
picion. This is the way Of the world,
it seems. When women adopt some
new style of dress they lay themselves
liable to mild criticism, until the peo-
pie get used to the innovation. 1t
was thus with the hoop-skirts, the
hustle, the skimp skirt, The peekaboo
waist and the transparent hosiery
until people became used to it. Women
were also criticised for adopting the
straight front model of corset,
they were criticised by men, who did
not have to wear them. All Of these
innovations were the subject of rid
icule from people, mostly men, and
yet they survived, until today we of
ten wonder what business it was of
ours, anyway.
But the Girls Military Squad, COM
posed for the most part Of young wo-
men who work in stores and offices,
whose time is wholly taken up during
the day with inside work, do not have
the right to have an organization that
will look to the physical development
of the girls. They have no right to
adopt a style Of dress that borders
closely upon the soldiers mode of
dress. They have no right to drill,
to walk correctly, to set an example Of
clean outdoor living. No thought is
taken of the cardinal principles that
made the organization possible. No
investigation is made as to what these

The president has ordered Herbert
G. Hoover, the proposed food adminis-
traitor, to begin his campaign for the
saving of food. Hoover will begin by
telling the housewives how to save
food in the kitchen and how to pur-
chase food for her family. The ad-
ministrator ought to 60 step farther
and take some of the men into his
confidence and tell them what to eat
and how muck. In any Of the high
class restaurants in the larger cities,
one can see the well-to-do men and wo-
men order four times as much as thew
need at each meal, wasting large
quantities Of food. Five or six dollars
apiece for single meal is not UNI
usual. In times when there is plenty
Of food this may be ones. own bust
ness, but when millions of people in

eminent ought to be able in way to

Crop" Of Ducks Will Be Large Any

Swan M. Lindgren from north Of
Douglas, was in the city Tuesday Wis
iting with his father-in-law, j. r..
johnson. Swans crop is pretty light
but he brot in "a dozen eggs which he
sold for 30 cents a dozen, which helps
10 good deal. He invested in thous-
and dollars worth Of cattle in the
spring and figures that by fall, he will
have doubled his money. The early
sown wheat looks poor, he says. The
wheat has started to "shootn and will
be very thin. The hay crop is practi-
Fcally q failure, but if the rains come,
farmers will sow oats and millet and
perhaps get a good crop Of those
kinds of feed. Mr.. Lindgren comes
from the famous duck hunting coun-
try. He says the dry season has been
favorable to the Matching Of young
ducks and the hatch Of native birds
has been large. The hawks are killing
a larger number Of ducks than usual
as there is an absence Of grassy re-
treats in the sloughs where they may
hide.

which it may desire to use It. We
are now making $500 ambulances
there and if President Wilson, or con-
gress, can suggest anything else for US
to do we will be only too willing to
comply"
what effect do you think the war
will have on your business ?" was
asked of Mr.. Ford.
He was silent for few minutes and
then replied: There is no reason for
the country to be alarmed. While this
war overshadows everything it does
not mean that the wheels Of industry
will stop, or slow up. On the con-
trary they will speed up. The factor
les will win for us just as surely as
will the men on the firing lines. When

The situation appears to be brighter
for the Allies daily. The British army
in Belgium has prepared for an Of
fensive that will keep the Germans

soil. The Italians are pounding away

Gated and Greece can be counted as a

that separate peace is impossible.

Russia has done much in enlighten-

wait until cold weather comes, as YOU
know they have very little storage
