The "dressmakers' Dress" which is
heralded as the incoming mode, cannot
fail to win over admirers when 1t is
presented In models as chic as that
pictured. Nothing less than genius
ever succeeded in making a one-plece
dress Of such originality and beauty,
that is equal to doing the duty of. a
suit. Note that there Is a double
skirt, with the overskirt full and that
the bodice opens over an embroidered
vest. The vest and overskirt provide
as much warmth as the coat in a coat
suit.
In the picture, the ~underskirt seems
narrower than it really is. This effect
Is more a matter of straighter lines

declaration that any peace
America makes must include
the delivery of Austria-Hun-
gary and the Balkan peoples
as well as northern France and
Belgium from PrusSian domi-
nation. That means that the
kaiser's dream of a Mittel Eu-
roppa must vanish.
Aside from motives of
friendship for the subjected
peoples referred to the presi-
dent is probably not unmindful
of the fact that Germany con-
fined to her own borders will
be no such menace to the future
peace of the world as would a
Germany with Austria and a
string of smaller vassal states

lin in the event of future need.

message is a virile, mastery
statement in which the inten-
tions of America are set torth
with clearness and force. The
message further seals the doom
of Prussianisn but it carries a
ray of hope for the German
people. We fight, as the presi-
dent says, to free the German
people from fear. If the peo-
pie of Germany and of Aus
tria can be informed as to the
sentiments of our president
they will long for peace, know
ing that defeat for their rulers
will be the day of deliverence
for themselves.
The American people have
reason to be proud of the man
they placed in the White
House. Great as a peace presi-
dent he is proving even nobler,
stronger and more able as a
war president.

WAR PRESIDENT

HtN RE SID E Mt WILSON'S
go message to congress was
much more than a re-
quest for war declaration
against Austria. The presi-
dent set forth also the war
aims of the United States and
probably the war aims of the
allied nations as a whole.
"Autocracy must be shown
the futility of its claims o
power of leadership in the
modern void. 1t is impossible
to apply any standard of JUS
tice as long as such forces are
unchecked and undefeated as
the present masters of Ger
many command" "
To show autocracy the futi-
lity of its claims President Will
son proposes that this country
and its allies win the war and
to that end he proposes that
every resource be employed
and nothing be allowed to turn
them from their object.
A very interesting feature of
the presidents message is his

IA ATRIOTISM was a mark
III ed feature at the Farm
II ers Union state cOnven-
tion sessions yesterday. The
same spirit is manifest at near
ly every convention held, no
matter who the people may be
or what their calling. The
American people as a whole
are intensely loyal and wish to
be of the best service possible
during the war. There is work
for all to do because the whole
nation, not merely the army, is
engaged in the war. The CO.
of all classes is
needed and one good way to
cooperate is to consider the
other fellow, his problems, his

needs and mis- merits. The pro-
ducer is a man of great value
to society. entitled to liberal
reward for his work. But the
same is true of those engaged
in other lines of work. Trans
portation and distribution are
also very vital. In fact society
is maintained not by the efforts
OF any one group of men but by
division of labor. 1t is often
not possible to say with accu-
racy which is the most valuable
work, Just as it is difficult to
say what materials used in the
building of a house are the
most essential. The nails used
in building a house are the
smallest material used yet they
have much to do with making
the house substantial and storm
proof.
With the war bringing all
our people together in "A com
mon cause it is a good time for
all of US to consider the inter
ests and the problems of those
in lines of work different from
our own. Such study and con-
sideration will bring about
breadth of view and a cooper
alton that the nation needs.
The Presidents message sets
forth the sort of an armistice
Germany will get when they
really get one and the message
is from the leader of a nation
able to deliver the goods. "
