FASHIONS

A very determined effort is being
made to popuiarize high-necked frocks
and blouses for the coming fall and
winter. How well women will Coop
crate with the fashion designers in this
respect remains to be seem 1t must
be admitted that for several seasons
the comfortable and almost uniformly
becoming collarless frockS and blouses
have held sway regardless of rise or
fall of the mercury. and it seems safe
to predict that the most that can be
hoped for neck swathing apparel is
that it may be permitted to share hon
ors with the collarless models.
However. the hgh-necked items of
apparel are here and undoubtedly some
women will elect to wear them
The sketch presented herewith illus

blouse. made of brocaded velvet, and
featuring a decidedly high collar. The
blouse buttons it's entire length, not
even the collar itself being exempt.

Velvet and velveteen are being fea-

shoulder. and again these shoulder
pieces VIII be developed in contrasting
color.
An extreme novelty that is worth
mentioning. though probably not to be
recommended as a leading style note,
is the use of the chamois as a trimming
FOR georgette blouses. Bands OF cha
mois in contrasting color are used to
trim collar. cuffs. vestee. etc. of geor-
gette blouses. and frequently small
chamois covered buttons fasten the
garment.
Chenille embroidery is making a
strong effort TO rival bead embroidery
as waist trimming. due no doubt to
the excessive prices now charged for
beads. The chenille is very effective;
but not so dainty as beads. and there
is always doubt to whether che
mile embroidery Will wear well. 1t
must he laid on in very loose stitch

the ornament which holds the coque

NEW YORK. August Those mil
liners who suddenly jerked a low crown
into a high one, as one pulls out a
jack-in-the-box. surely turned the fash
ion in hats topsy-turvy.
There is nothing SO irritating to the
woman who has bought a low crowned
hat as to find that three inches have
been added by fashion and that what
she possesses is as hopelessly oCs OF
the picture as a full skirt in season
of narrow ones.
There are women who are rebellious
by nature and by practice. and they
continue to wear the low crowned
hat regardless of what other women
do They are often governed by ira
dition, and not by a firm belief that
high crown is unsuited to their faces.
Tradition and custom are two pow
.erful factors among certain women In
the governing of their clothes. They
wear certain things simply because
they've always worn them: and they
go in and out of the fashions with
the steadfastness of photograph.

Colonel Thomas B. McAdams, direc-
tor in charge OF the work of Virginia,
plans to interest every schoolchild in
the state in thrift stamps and war
savings stamps, and to the end he has
been promised the support of the
commemorative entire educational
system.
To make a success OF the great
thrift campaign which got under way
this week it is going to be as neces-
ssry for the boys and girls to help
as for the grown ups TO do their part.
There are many ways in which child
rem can earn money, that will give
them a full opportunity to help Uncle
Sam finance the war. which daily is
growing wider and wider in scope.
Yesterday President Wilson asked
congress TO declare war against Ger

SHIPPERS COOPERATE
FOR THE RELIEF OF
GAR SHORTAGE

Pacific coast shippers by cooper
atinp in heavier car loading saved
during the month or August enough
cars to supply the Southern Pacl''c'S
entire Pacific system for one and one
half days according to figures made
public by traffic officials today.
Upon an average 5000 cars are
required daily to fill the demands OF
all the shippers located on the 67oo
mile system of the Southern Pacific
company. By heavier car-loading
4,597 cars were saved during August
1917 as compared with the same
month last year.
The extraordinary value to ship
pers of using the full space available
is shown by the statement that th'
above saving was sufficient to pro
vide during August all the cars re
quired to load the following commod
tiles: Sugar, paper, peas and beans
salt. dried fruits, canned goods, rice
potatoes, corn and oats, brick.

RED CROSS BENEFIT
A GREAT SUCCESS
Packed House Greeted the British
War Pictures on Saturday
Night.

The presentation of "The Tanks
in Action at the Battle of Ancre" at
the Auditorium Saturday night for
the benefit of the Red Cross was
greeted by packed house and there
were many who would have liked to
see the pictures could they have OBJ
tanned seats.
The net receipts from this benefit
were $500 and would have been
more than double that amount, could
they have been shown the two nights
as advertised. A crowd filled the
Auditorium On Friday night and as
the War pictures did not arrive they
were treated to a free picture show.
1t is the policy of the management
of the Welsh Motion Picture Co. to
live up to it's advertising, or no
charge.
The chairman of the committee
having this benefit in charge desires
to extend thanks through the Journal
to the individual members of the
committee who worked tirelessly for
its success and to everyone who con-
tributed their support.
