Uncle Harry Tells About Colonel Houses New Mission

When Uncle Harry entered the room
he could see by the expressions on the
faces OF his audience that they had
question ready for him. Before he could
even remove his overcoat, Jimmy ex-
claimed:
Uncle Harry, what has President
Wilson asked Colonel House to do?"
Does II mean that peace Is going
to be declared soon. Uncle Harry"
added Joe.

Harry as he Joined the circle around

near future, all things have an end
ing and peace must come eventually.
Knowing this, most OF the countries
at war, have for some time been max
ing preparations for the peace confer
cnce. This preparation has consisted
OF the collection and arrangement Of
every possible piece Of data and infor-
nation that will help the peace COM
missioners to determine the real cause
of this, the greatest and cOstliest Of
all wars, and enable them TO build a
ground work on which we hope Will
rest a permanent and lasting peace.
America will, Of course, take big
part in the discussion Of peace terms
and Colonel House has been asked by
President Wilson TO undertake the task
OF preparing our country for the peace
conference"
"Who IS Colonel House, Uncle Har-
ry?" asked Helen.
THAT" replied Uncle Harry, sis a
natural question that a great many
people asked some time ago, when he
was first sent by the President upon
a special, mission TO Europe. Previous
TO that time he was comparatively un-
known 20 the public.
Colonel House is a private citizen
living i'm Gloucester, Massachusetts,
and has long been a personal friend of
President Wilson's. He has neeer held
office under the Government, but has
made several trips 10 Europe as a sort
of unofficial diplomat and is known
i'm an of the European countries and
ia Washington as a man having a wide
knowledge and a keen grasp OF In
ternatlonal affairs.
Those who know Colonel House anC
are familiar with what he has done
believe that President Wilson has made
"a wise choice in selecting him TO un-
dertake this very important work"
But, Uncle Harry" said Jimmy
why couldn't the diplomats and rep
resentatives that we already have II
foreign countries handle work OF this
sort9"
Because" replied Uncle Harry, Ell
such work was 10 be done by the rep
resentatives Of our state Department
it IS felt that misunderstanding NIGH
arise as to the intentions Of America
and our Allies might feel that thii
country was working for an early
peace rather than a carrying on Of the
war TO a successful finish. II, on th'
other hand, the work is done quietl!
and without publicity by a man wh'
enjoys the confidence and respect Of
the foreign governments such as doe
Colonel House, no misunderstanding
are likely to arise"
"Will Colonel House do all this worl
alone, Uncle Harry3" asked Joe.

ry, "when you stop TO think Of tn

georgette and chiffon will probably
remain in favor for another season.
These pretty things are made on the
regular smock lines andathen caught
in at the waist by a band of the ma
terial. a cord or an elastic band run
through the heading made at the
waist for that purpose. They are de-
veloped in all cOlors and there will
be more of a variety in smock-
blouses this season than ever before
They have gained an unquestionabl BILE
lead and are giving the other kind of
blouses we wear a decided run for
supremacy. There are people betting
on both but il really is the best pol
icy 10 remain discreetly silent, and
wait for developments.
The most practical of the smock-
blOuses are the ones of georgette
crepe and chiffon in the colors to
match the suit. They are particularly
practical for travelling since they do
not show the soil and are attractive
without being conspicuous. A very
pretty model is that of blue georg-
cite 70 match the tailored suit OF
serge or sued-skin. Ii may be en-
bOidered, beaded or shocked in any
color of the rainbow giving it an un-
usual and attractive brightness. The
cOmmOnest way of finishing such
blouses is by an elastic at the waist
which allows the end of the blouse
TO hang over the skirt and form one
OF the greatest innovations of the
past two seasons.
The linen blouses we have always
worn are with us again in the great
est sweep ever known in their history
and the colOrs are all the ones we
can imagine-and some persons
have very vivid imaginations, you
know. They are plain and suitable
for the tailored suits and are tucked
down the front in a most delightful
and different way. Linen blouses
are undoubtedly a thing Of the COM
ing season.

The Season In Blouses

BlouseS are queer things, especial
ly this season. They seem to have a
will and a way all their own and no
matter what any one thinks, their
willfulness holds sway and they do
just as they please in all cases. They
are undoubtedly an independent set
and deserve to be put down in their
respective places but that is just the
question. Do we dare tamper with
such dispositions as they seem to
have and take the risk of mourning
their displeasure?
Three piece suits are TO be very
much in evidence this fall. so, of
course, we know how much need we
Will really have for the separate
blouse and those who entertain the
feeling that it is unwise TO "cross
the bridge until one comes to it,
should consider that the bridge is
fast coming along and there is no
use taking more of burden on their
shoulders by waiting.
With all their willfulness, blouses
are lovely this season and a little bit
different and original. too. They are
made from heavy materials as well
as the sheer georgette and chiffon to
which we have become so accustom-
ed in the last few years. Now, jersey,
satin. charmeuse and linens are go
ing TO be as important in this world
as any of the materials we know so
well and blouses will have some new
competitors for their favor before
many weeks pass over our heads.

year in the semi-smock blouse OF

ATTENTION To HAIR.

Woman's browning beauty is her
hair, we are told. and the dry fall
weather is very hard on this crown
of beauty, as it is on everything else.
Especially for the woman who is
more or less confined to an office is
it a difficult task to give her hair the
attention it really requires.
In order TO retain the smooth,
glossy appearance which is the Wis
ible sign Of good grooming, YOU must
give your hair a certain amount OF
daily care.
This is particularly essential in
hot weather
