Fashions Creed.

1t appears that the prevailing creed
in fashion is that woman must not
think of going in her shirt sleeves any
more than a man would think Of doing
it. She wears wash blouse beneath
the jacket for purposes of cleanliness.
but not publicity. SO farreaching is
this creed that the medieval tunic
which extends only to the hip line and
is fastened to the shoulder or slips
over the head is worn over blouse
with cloth skirt even in the house.
Probably the best thing to remember
in buying clothes now is that the fig
ure must be Strengthened out, in the
medieval manner, from bust to hips.
You can choose your own way of doing
it, whether by deep girdle, by the
straight lines of the fabric or by Il belt
of suede or leather that conceals any
inward curve beneath the arms toward
the waist.

THE TALKING TREES.

Once upon a time as the little birds
were making their long journey to the
pleasant warm countries where birds
spend the winter little robin was left
behind. He had a lame wing, and lame
winged birds never can fly far
Little robin looked about in the
strange woods where, tired out, he had
to stop. He crept up to n gnarled old
oak tree whose branches scared hun
dred feet into the air.
"Please let me stay with you all win
ter" the little bird pleaded. "Your
leaves will shelter me from the winter
winds.'
But the oak was proud. "Go away"
he said. II do not want tramp birds
like you about my branches"
The little bird sped to the beech tree,
but the beech tree made believe not to
hear the robin.
'The maple is so lovely. Perhaps
she is also kind" the little bird said.
And he went to the maple tree to ask
her for shelter But the maple tree
was not kind
He flew to the little stream along
which the white birch trees cleaned,
but the birches said that they were not
strong enough to take dodgers.
AS, tired and sorrowful, the little bird
started away on his lame wing a dark,
shaggy tree standing on the hill slope
called to him, Here you are welcome
to shelter, little wanderer." 1t was the
tall pine tree with thick needles which
could turn off the toughest winter wind.
Il, too, have home for you," called
the tall, dark spruce. And the stately
cedar whispered, that if the little bird
cared to live near the dwellings Of man
not to overlook it's sheltering branches
in the garden.
GAS for me-" called the little juniper,
Though may not be able to offer shell
ter, my berries will provide you with
food, to which you are welcome as long
as you need them"
And SO the little bird stayed with
these kind ones, and every morning
and every evening he sang them little
song Of gratitude.
Old King Winter heard it one day
and learned the birds story. He said
to one of his widest winds:
$50 out into the woods and strip
those unkind trees of the leaves of
which they are so proud, but the trees
share what they had with the unfortu-
nate shall always wear their green
leaves all winter"

EMBROIDERY CRETONNES.
How to Make Attractive Spreads by
the Art of Appliuue

the Art of Applique.
Simple work for busy hands seems to
be in demand just at present. APP
pliqued patch embroidery is simple and
is made quickly.
To make centerpieces, cushion tops,
scarfs, tides or chair backs, clothes
bags, ETC., plain linen or silk is needed,
preferably linen.
Circles Of applique are cut from
cretonne. The design should be large
single flower or small spray in order to
cut three inch circles. The circles are
basted to the cloth and stitched on by
machine close to the edge. Chain stitch
around each circle with coarse thread,
then run through with a white thread
in what is called the blanket stitch,
or whip it straight along the last row
Of stitches, catching it over and over.
The white rolls in with the black and
is very pretty. A scroll is drawn in
by cutting out figure which looks
well and then tracing it off on the
cloth.
In a centerpiece six medallions are
used, three in a pillow, three in each
end of scarf and three in a chair
back. To finish the edge outline it as
the medallions were outlined. Dots,
which are often placed in the center Of
the scrollwork. are made of black in
the satin stitch.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-More than a million families were added to the food administrations pledge enrolment by today's reports of activities yester- day throughout the country. The tot al as officially recorded here, now stands at 6.469.46 and officials of the administration think that pledges for at least 10000,O00 families will have been signed before ,ne close of this week.

OTTAWA, Nov. 4.-Sir Wilfred Laurier. veteran leader of the opDo- sition in parliament. issued a mani festo ''to the Canadian people" tonight in which he outlined the platform upon which his party will stand in the election of next month.
 The first duty of q Laurier admins tration. he asserted, would he to find the men, money and resources neces- sary to ensure the fullest measure of support to our heroic soldiers at the front and to enable Canada to con- tnue to the very end to do her splen- did part to win the war.
 As to the present military serv- ice act, my policy will be not to pro- ceed further under it's provisions un- til the people have an opportunity to pronounce upon it by way of ref erendum.

 He would remove the duties on az ricultural implements and other es- sentials as demanded by the western farmers. In connection with the high cost of living, he said he would take drastic steps to bri> under govern ment control all food production of the factories so that food may be sold at a fixed price under control of the gov ernment
 If necessary, Sir Wilfred declared, he would not hesitate to take control of the factories engaged in the supply of food and war materials.

1 Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 4.-Uniform minimum wage scales for the Pacific coast shipbuldng yards, a guide for all ship yards in the country, were an nounced today by the United States shipbuilding labor adjustment board. The decision effects an increase of from 10 to 30 per cent over the old scale here, although it's uniformity makes it lower in some localities than the temporary scale now in force.
 The decision, the first to be handed down by the board, declared that em- ployes' discrimination interfering with the defense of the nation in time of war, against so-called unfair ma terials. would be intolerable."
 There won't be many ships built under this scale" declared M J. Ma guire, a union conferee representing the metal trades craftsmen of the Bay districts.
 'I believe the entire shipbuilding crafts of the Pacific coast will appeal to President Wilson against the de- cisiOn."
 The scales are based on the increase in the cost of living since the beginning of the war, it was stated.
 Seventy five thousand men must be
 
 wards to carry out the government pro- gram, the board decided This means 30, 900 skilled mechanics, more than are employed now. The board will urge the department of labor to extend the federal employment service in Cali fornia, Oregon and Washington, to supplement the trade unions, unable to supply skilled workmen.
 "The shipbuilding labor adjustment board is war board" the decision says The owners Of the shipyards are, during the duration of the war, merely agents of the government. Elm ployers and employees must realize that the war has changed their relation to each other. The government is insist ent that the ships it requires must be built and be built promptly. It is equally insistent that standards of liv- ing must be preserved.
 "The national program requires an increase in the output of ships from 750,0 tons, turned out in 1915, to G. 100000 tons in 1918. This necessitates the introduction, wherever possible, of the two and three-shift systems. Im- mediate steps to bring about this change must be taken by the ship yard owners. The board urges the rep resentatives of organized labor and the employers concerned to work out in cooperation with the agents of the government, plans for the more rapid training of skilled workers in the diff ferent crafts"
 Summarizing the decision, Secretary Henry R. Seager of the board, said
 '"The board did u.t feel justified in forcing on the taxpayers of the coun try, who henceforth must pay for the ships built, the higher wage that the consideration of merely local aspects of the situation might have warranted It urges employers and employees to ac- cept the decision in the spirit of Ioya co-operation and do their utmost to | help the government win the war h\ tContinued on Page Two)
