TALES OF THE TUNIC-

Now that winter is really here Thanksgiving safely past, and Christ mas plans and secrets in the very air the modes of the moment have settled down into their winter gait, smart conservative and unobtrusive. This does not mean, however, that there are not new things coming to pass ev, cry day or so, or that the styles for midwinter are uninteresting. Fai from it!

emphasizing the fact that the long line is the smart line. Indeed, there is just cause for their popularity, for they add height to the short one, and slimness to the stout one, and cover up, as it were, a multitude of sins.
 Tunic Talk.
 Your waist may be very, very, plain; your sleeves very, very tight; and your skirt very-well, not very narrow; but your tunic must be there, falling in the long, straight folds gained by pleats or gathers, The ev- er-ready serge dress is tunicked, and the costume for afternoon occasions is tunicked. On the newest evening dresses the tunics are of net or lace and they too, adhere to the straight silhouette. But doesn't it seem like a uniform? No, not at all, for every tunic has a way of its own; and it's the fad of the hour to see how one may disguise the tunic, and still re- main true to it.

 Severely plain and yet adorably smart and becoming is the black vel vet gown or overdress illustrated here. The tunic (for, of course, there is one!) is faced back with white sat- in; and the turnover collar, which makes of itself a side issue, is also of

BOY POWER OF COUNTRY

An important conference will open
in Washington to-day at the offices Of
the Council OF National Defense, when
the State directors and others work
ers in the United States Boys Work
Ing Reserve will gather to discuss
plans for carrying forward rapidly the
important movement of filing the farm
labor shortage. No attempt is being
made BY this organization to disturb
the State and local organizations
which are engaged in helping to solve
the. problem. The purpose Of the Re-
serve is to coordinate the movement
throughout the country.
The encouraging results which al
ready have been accomplished by the
movement lead the Federal officials
to believe that it will go forward much
more rapidly after to-day's conference.
The work of enrolling and placing
boys on the farms is progressing more
rapidly than anticipated Thousands
OF city boys already are at work on
farms. But better than numbers Is the
fact that they are making good. AL
most without exception the boys sent
out are proving satisfactory workers;
in fact, the farmers in many places
are calling for boys faster than they
can be supplied. The intensive train
ing camps which have been established
by local organizations for boys outside
Of New York, Philadelphia, and some
other large cities have been proving
OF excellent advantage in fitting the
boys to make good from the start on
the farms. In most Of these places
they have been unable to hold the boys
during the full training period. as
farmers have come and taken them
away. The farmers, 1t seems, are find
ing the boys more satisfactory than
much Of the stray help on which they
have been obliged to depend during
their busy season in previous years.
The farmers in most cases are meet.
ing the boys hall way, breaking them
gradually into the work and giving
them every opportunity to show theig
worth. -.
