THE LONG STITCH.

It is noticeable that things are be- ing made as easy as possible for the needlewC man, and particularly for the novice. The vogue for hand embroid- cry still is strong and it is no doubt because of this fact that fashion has said that the single long stitch should be used more frequently than any other so that one can get the desired effect without spending too much time on the work.
 One place where the long stitch is conspicuous is on the new ia brio hats. A very stunning blue GeorEette crepe model has the crown decorated with long stitches of heavy white floss. The stitches do not bring out any particu- lar design, inAtead they s4em to be' placed hit or miss, but the result is extremely pleasing. As for the flowers that can be brought out in the long stitchs there are asters, thousa nds flowers, chrysanthemums. daisies and a number of other plants that will suggest themselves as you grown en- thusiastic in the idea.
 The vogue is for adding an indi- vidual touch to a ready made frock or blouse. In placing the stitches do not draw thsm tight, and yet do not have them too loose. Strike a happy med ium so that each stitch lies perfectly fiat and does not pull.

WAR PRoFIIe TAX

After 8 long debate and after stren- uous efforts upon the part of certain senators making up the radical ele- ment in the upper house to place the greater part of the burden Of the war tax upon the industries ofNhe country. the senate fhas reached its decision as to the war profits tax. and it has accepted the compromise schedule presented by the finance committee. The result is that there will be raised from this war profits tax about a bil- lion and sixty million dollars, thus carrying the tax which is to be inn posed for the carrying on of the war up to the point where over two billion dollars will be raised through taxa ton.
 It cannot help being felt that such q move, at least at the start. displays good judgment. It should not be the purpose of the law makers to crip- pie industry and it should not be their aim to place the whole burden of the war upon the present genera tion. This Is matter which should be properly distributed. Each and everyone is going to have an oppor- tunity to participate therein and every loyal citizen should want that oppor- tunity.
 / The amount Of the war profits tax as decided upon by the senate :s much lower than the rate desired by La Toilette and other senators. but even with the large reduction that was made, it is to be remembered that thia' taxation is going to be high and it iS going to bear a large part of the bur- den. This is no more than should be e&pected from this source but even so it is but proper that sound judg- ment should prevail in fixing the rate rather than to pursue a radical course and embarrass our vital means of production. The importance of tread ing on safe ground under prevailing conditions cannot be ignored and that is what has apparently guided the senate in it's decision.

A DIFFERENT TOUGH.

Everybody is knitting sweaters so that it takes some little ingenuity to accomplish a sweater which looks dfnerent> from every one else's in the knitting class. One excellent way to accomplish this end is to use cross stitch in wool on the collar corners. As most of the sweaters made have a contrasting collar and cuffs, either of plain wool or of angora, it is an easy matter to bring out the conventional cross stitch design with the colored wool of the sweater. A not too con- spicuous pattern should b. chosen be- cause it is not intended to be showy, only a finishing touch. Conventional designs are best. The stitches of the wool are used as guide in the cross stitching

Made-In-Connecticut War interviews
Why We Raise Our Army By Con-

Why We Raise Our Army By Con- scription.
 Joseph w Alsop of Avon a member of the Connecticut State Council of Defense, in an interview with a rep resentative Of the. council given out today in the AsericS of "Ma6e-in-C Con- r.ecticut- War Interviews" answers the question "Why do we raise our army by conscription? with the fol- lowing statement:
 The benefits of ou- government and the responsibilities for it's carrying first duty of every person to our country is to protect home and fam fly and to sustain the form of gov ernment to save which this war is on our Lart being Naged.
 Tn former days wars were fought by only small part of tha population but now modern war is or should be waged by the whole population. Each man, woman. and child has his or her part of the burden to bear and must share in the war and its results.
 When we agilt, we must light with our whole power and energy or else we shall fail. To each individual there must be the task assigned for which that individual is best adapted.
 'In times of peace we enjoy in this protection of cur individual rights. We say we are Americans: that we be- long to he United States of America. We should remember the responsibil- ities which these words carry with them.
 War has come and our government has stepped in and Is engaged in the task af~ organizing our people and our resources to meet the emergency. To our men of fighting age must fall -he burden of carrying arms. Each man fitted 50 to do must do his share. None shall be excused on account of position, family, or wealth: none shall be excused who wish to dodge their duty to their country. Only those shall be excused who are in to the task of organizing our resources or those whose absence
