GOVERNMENT ASKS TAIL0RS
TO SAVE IN CLOTH

| Mems clothes will be along plain
lines in the near future declared a
Watertown tailor when asked what
steps were being taken by the larger
clothing houses of the east to cooper
ate with the government in the pres
ent war. "They are reverting to plain
unadorned suits both for young and
old, and disposing Of cuff on the coat
and extra pockets wherever possible u
he continued.
The government has also issued re-
1quests to number of the larger ready
made houses and to all the portfolio
and fashion publishers to eliminate all
superf1uities pertaining to mems gar
ments, such as cuffs, belts, extra un-
necessary pockets, flaps, double
breasted styles, ETC., in order to con-
serve the wool needed for the cloth
| in such extras.
Agitation along these lines has al
| ready started,' said another tailor
but the action taken will likely be
optional with the individual and not
compulsory" he continued.
The fashion plates for winter and
spring wear will of course show plen-
| ty Of fancy garments, but they will
not be shown unless asked for, and ii
rests with the individual whether or
no he follows the governments re-
quests and chooses a plain instead of
a fancy garment

BOY SCOUTS WILL HELP
SECOND LIBERTY LOAN DRIVE

The Boy Scouts held meeting We'd
nesday evening in the high school
gymnasium for the purpose of form
ing scout patrols. The scouts were
divided into three patrols and those
who were to act as patrol leaders were
elected as follows: George Wiese
Stewart Larson, and TheO. Roach.
The scouts are to participate in the
second Liberty Loan campaign as let
ters from the chief scout and Wood
row Wilson were read The one from
President Wilson stated that another
opportunity for the scouts to help
their country was developed. He also
stated that the scouts secured $22,-
100000 worth of subscriptions to the
first Liberty Loan. In closing he states
that it is his earnest wish that every
scout be given an opportunity to take
a definite part in the present cam
paign.
In replying, Colin H. Livingstone
president of the National Council OF
Boy Scouts, states, that in response
to the presidents request he can as
sure him on behalf of not only the
boys themselves, but their leaders that
his call will meet with an enthusiastic
and unanimous response.
The local scouts will participate in
the present campaign to secure sub
| scriptions to the Liberty bond sale
| The offer of a war medal to the scout
who sells ten different bonds to ter
different families will hold good fol-
the present drive. All those scouts
who qualified for the medal in the
| first campaign will be presented with
a bar if they sell ten bonds of the
present issue. The extra bar can be
attached to the medal
The Scouts Liberty Loan campaign
will commence Oct. q and will enc
on the 25th of the month with a spe-
cial program for each day 1t may
mean that this will somewhat restrict
the amount of subscriptions secured
through scouts, but it does insure tina
the service Of the boys will be giver
at time when it will mean most tt
our country, and the prime considera
! ton now is service to our country.

Some decidedly startling stories
have been running through the press
concerning enemy spies disguised as
peddlers selling court plaster inocu-
lated with disease germs, poisoned
lead pencils and infected fruit jar
tops and the like, for the purpose OF
spreading disease and death in our
land. ALI such cases have been in
vestigated and while some germs have
been found still there is no evidence
yet that would warrant the statement
that there was any particular propa-
ganda along that line. Still, why not
play safe, buy nothing from a man
you don't know. You can buy any
thing of this sort from your home mer-
chant. Safety frst.-Ashland Press

At the Theatres

'The Man Who Made Good" will be
the attraction at the Classic tonight
A light and interesting story of bust
ness and romance is presented in this
picture, written by Robert Shirley and
directed at the Eastern Triangle stu
diO by Arthur Rosson under the SUI
pervision Of Allan Dwan. The plot
takes up the case OF young clerk
who, because of a lack of spirit, never
made progress in the office His
chance comes, though, after he has
become tramp and learned how to
shift Tor himself. The plot never
wakes strong in a dramatic way, but
taking the narrative from it interests
fully over its whole length.
Admirers of Viola Dana, the dainty
little Metro star, will have an oppor-
tunity to see their favorite actress in
an unusually attractive role in Lady
Barnacle,' which will be shown at
the Majestic theatre on Saturday AS
Lakshima, the high-caste Hindoo mai
den who has run away from home,
she attempts to disguise herself in
