DAILY FASHION HINTS
BOYS ROMPERS.
BY AnabeI Worthington.

A new style of rompers that suggests
The Oliver Twist suits is given in No.
SS15. The waist is made with a yoke
which is only in front, the back having
two tucks to hold the interest The rest
of the waist in front Is smoked to match
the color Of the trousers. The suit but
tons down the centre front and has a
little round collar to finish the neck. The
sleeves come to the wrist and have turn
back cuffs. The straight trousers are
the kind which are most popular this sea-
son and they are cut in an uneven shape
at the top. Materials such as gingham
chambray, percale, linen, Indian head,
poplin or pongee are splendid for rompers.
The boys rompers pattern, No. 1915,
is cut in three sizes, 2, and 6 years. As
on the figure, the year size requires III
yards q inch, or rs yards SO inch, with
Ia yards 80 inch contrasting goods for
the waist If made all of one material,
the garment requires az yards 81 inch,
PA yards Of 80 inch, or 21s yards of 80
inch material -.

Duty Of German Born.

Letter of Frederick L. Hoffman Of
Newark. N. j., to The New York Post:
Born in Germany. ] have for more
than thirty years been a resident Of
this country and for twenty-five years
a citizen thereof. The oath of allegi-
ance requires "the support of the con-
stitution df the United States and the
remuneration and abjuration of all
allegiance and fidelity to every foreign
prince, potentate, state or sovereignty
whatsoever"
This oath is binding upon millions
of Americans Of German birth, who
are today confronted by a crisis which
demands action and not words. They
are called upon to square their con-
duct with their oath Of allegiance and
to prove themselves worthy of the
priceless privilege of American citizen
ship in behalf of the cause Of national
defense against foreign foe.
1t is the tragedy Of history that by
wanton acts of deliberate aggression
against the lives and property of AM
erican citizens and the browning in
fanny of conspiracy against our terri
torial integrity. the German govern
ment should have forfeited our
confidence and good will.
1t is therefore obviously the patriotic
duty Of every American OF German
birth to render the fullest measure Of
unconditional loyalty to the national
cause and whatever active assistance
may be essential to the attainment Of
a final victory which shall guarantee
to the world a lasting peace. The duty
of the hour is unequivocal, and 1t is
for each and everyone of foreign birth
to prove that oaths of allegiance are
not meaningless, and that their appli-
cation to American citizenship can be
effectively visualized into action Of
enduring worth.

BREAD AND BOATS!

BY Arthur Billiard of The vigilan-
ties: The German submarines hope to
sink a million tons of shipping a
month. Their object is to prevent the
British from sending troops to Flan-
ders, coal to France, or munitions to
Russia And in the end to starve Eng
land. ~ ".
If they succeed, democracy will be
defeated in Europe before we can be-
gin to fight.
So our first campaign in this war
must be against the enemy submar-
ines. Our navy is already at work.
But the boys in blue cannot do the
job alone. We, who are civilians, must
do the biggest share of the work.
We must build boats faster than
the submarines can sink them. And
we must fill them with bread.
Everyone who has to do with iron
from the miners to steel riveters-
can help to speed up the process. Any
big structural iron job today. which is
not absolutely necessary, is a. sort of
industrial treason. 1t means that just
so much raw material, so many skilled
mechanics are not available for the
building of ships.
Everyone who has to do with wood
from the lumberjacks to the carpen-
ters who put pianolas together-can
help in. building the. new fleet of
wooden cargo boats. Every man who
knows how to handle an ak or saw,
a. hammer or plane ought to be at
work on ship building. The new barn
can wait till peace comes again. To
build Ii this summer is to divert raw
material and labor from the shipyards.
It means helping the Germans. 1t will
make it more probable that some of
our, American boys will be killed in
battle.
And il will be useless to build boats
unless we can fill them with food
stuff.
i Bread is scarce all over the world
The farmers in Europe are fighting
instead of planting. Fire and sword
have swept away the harvest over vast
territories. A plague of grasshoppers
has descended on the wheat fields OF
Argentina Our own harvests have
been poor. All the world is going to be
Hungry this winter. And we must feed
not only our own vast population but
also our, comrades who are already in
arms.
The other day in q restaurant they
Kissed a man for not standing up
when the orchestra played THE Star
Spangled Banner" It would have been
wiser patriotism to have Kissed every
man and woman in the room who was
eating white bread.
~ Our wheat will go almost twice as
Tar il we grind 1t all into flour. White
bread has always been an extravagant
fashion. Today 1t Is an unpatriotic
fashion.
We must multiply our food supply
by increased planting and decreased
waste. Every unplowed acre in our land
