DECLARE WAR TODAY

HAVANA, December 10-(Associat-
cd Press --Congressm last night ex-
Deal would today issue a proclamation
declaring state of war with Austria.
Such action by McnOcal would follow
the precedent of the course he pursued
in the case of Germany. The action
of the United States was then quickly
and closely followed by Cuba. With
the United States at war with Austria
the same arguments apply to Cuba for
issuing a similar proclamation.

the storage of root crops. 1t is often
possible, however, to partition off a
room either in one corner or at one
end of the cellar where the tempera-
ture may. be controlled by means of
outside windows. At least one win
dow is necessary, and two or more are
desirable for admitting light and for
or rectangular, a room similar to the
one illustrated in figure 1 can be ar
ranged. If, as is often the case, how
ever, the cellar is built in the shape
Of an ell, the room should be made
by partitioning off the offset, as shown
in. figure 2. In some cases it is pos
sible to cut off one end Of the cellar
with one straight wall.
Construction. of the Storage Room.
The size Of the storage room should
lie determined by the space available
and the amount of material to be
stored. Natural earth makes better
floor than concrete or brick, as a GER
tain amount Of moisture is desirable.
The walls Of the storage room should be
parallel to the walls of the cellar. Lay
2-by-4-inch scantling fiat on the floor
and secure them with pegs driven in
to the floor or by mailing them to the
top Of short posts set in the ground.
Set 2-by-4-inch studding from this
sill to the ceiling, spacing them 16
inches apart from center to center.
Locate the door to the storage room
Mt the most convenient point, making
it large enough to admit barrels,
boxes, etc @211s feet wide BY 61h feet

age-room walls meet. Care exercised
in making the frame square and plumb
will enable the builder to get the struc-
ture tight with a, minimum Of labor.
A good room is made by covering the
studding on the outside with tongue
and-groove material, but a better way
is to sheathe the outside with plain
lumber, tack building paper. on this,
and side with tongue-and-groove ma
terial. This construction in connec-
ton with lath and plaster or wall
board on the inside makes an excel
lent room.
Ventilation may be secured by open.
ing one or more windows. An air
duct constructed Of wood, metal, or
terra Gotta and fitted in one Of the
windows, as illustrated in figure 4, is
desirable, as it permits the cool air
to enter at the bottom of the room.
Two or more joints of 6-inch stovepipe,
one with a damper, and an elbow may
be used. A piece Of board with a hole
the size of the pipe is fitted in the
window in place of one Of the panes
of glass. Another pane Of glass may
be removed from the sash and a small
hinged door fitted in it's place, which
when open allows the heated air to
escape. In cold weather both the
hinged door and the damper in the
stovepipe must be closed. The win
dows in the storage room should be
darkened in order to protect the vege-
tables from the light.
Barrels, crates, boxes, or bins may
be used as containers for the various
vegetables, but movable containers are
preferable to built-in bins, as it is pos
sible to remove them for. cleaning. It
is advisable to construct shelves or

!. Poiret will never give up the skirt
that suggests Turkish trousers. It is
almost as much a symbol Of his work
as the flat, red rose that he used in his
MARITIME house decorations. He does
not object to the separate bodice Of
velvet that forms part of the evening
gown, although he has watched a good
many other dressmakers use it since
he invented it nearly half dozen
years ago.
Lanvin Is Slavic.
There have been SO many things In
common between Paul Poiret and
Jeanne Lanvin for so many years that
some dressmakers have insisted that
they are related or that the houses
are commercially connected. The per-
sonalities Of these. two designers in
France are as different as can be, even
beyond the fact that one is a woman
and one is man.
Wherefore, it is not surprising that
while Poiret clings to the sumptuous
effects Of an exotic past, Lanvin also
| continues to hammer upon the anvil
Of Slavic and Russian fashions.
She has gone to Serbia and Rou-
mania for inspiration and probably
draws a color, a line or a suggestion
| from the Cossacks of central Russia.
In direct contrast to these short, bril-.
liant Slavic clothes, she has put out
a most dignified evening gown. The
| skirt is quite long, but without a train,
and the belt is nearly over the hip
line. The top part Of the skirt has
the tightness Of the days Of the Renais-
sance, and judging by the many things
that Lanvin is doing, as we'll as other
French dressmakers, it looks as though
the loose blouse in any form will soon
belong to day that is done.
This is not startling news to the
American woman, because the smartly
dressed young women have been
adopting the tight bodice and the long,
tight sleeves in their summer Clothes
even making them of bingham and
especially Of jersey cloth.
Lanvin also exploits the large waist.
