Instead of the usual newsletter we
have prepared the following glimpses
Of what is going on in Christian En-
deavor during the year ending this
christian Endeavor Week, such an
niversary observed by many OF its
two million members in their eighty
thousand societies. for our organiza-
ton on February 2. 1917 was thirty
six years old. Our quotations are
from addresses printed in THE Chris
tian Endeavor World" last issue, by
DR. Francis Z. Clark president and
founder of the Society, and his Asso-
ciates President. Rev. Daniel Polling.
This has been our banner year"
says Dr. Clark. The fellowship be
tween Miss United States and Miss
Canada remains. like for many years,
In China. Japan and Ko-
rea there are 1000 societies strong
with forty or fifty thousand members.
The goal in Japan is to double the
number of their societies before the
annual convention held in Tokyo next

tions of this Eastern land come greet

inherent vitality of our movement
which war cannot kill.
And here are our European friends

The Old Spirit.

Now that we Americans are in this war;" said Booth Tarkington the oth- CT day, "we1l show the allies that we've still got the old bridge build CTS spirit.
 "Stonewall Jackson, you know, had bridge builder called old Miles. Miles was very necessary to Jackson because the flimsy bridges on the line of march were continually being swept away by the floods or destroy ed by the enemy, and in these contin- gencies Miles was a jewel. He could run you up bride in the time 1t would take another man to make the measurements.
 "One day the Union troops burned bridge across the Shenandoah. Stonewall Jackson called old Miles to him and said: a
 "'You must put all young men to work, Miles, and you must keep them at it all night, for I've got to have a bridge across this stream by morning. My engineer will draw up the plans for you.
 "Well, early the next morning Jack son, very much worried, met old Miles.
 "'See here, he said dubiously; how about that bridge? Did the engineer give you the plans?'
 "Old Miles took the cigar from his mouth and flicked the ash off with . sheer.
 ""General,' he said, the bridge is done. I don't know whether the pic. ter is or not" '"-Washington Star.

 The Food Conservation Uniform.
 Have you signed the Food Conser- vation Pledge? If not, do learn about it at once, for it is one of the ways the patriotic woman can really help her country. There is a fascinating dress apron which you can wear after you have signed it. The illustration here shows you just how very prac- tical (and becoming) it really is. This is the official uniform, and is being worn all over the country. The dress itself is made of blum chambray, or plain blue gingham, with collar, cuffs and cap of white pique. It is ex- tremely simple of construction and is also very easy to get into. There is only one button necessary. The dress closes on either side, the right over the left, or the left over the right. The strap or belt is passed through bound buttonhole, around the figure. and is fastened on the opposite side. The big pockets are conveniently placed and altogether it is costume designed for the efficient woman.
 The Vogue of Ginghams Continued
 in Fall Fabrics.
 There has never been a material so popular as gingham! The history of the gingham craze, as it has been called, is very interesting. It was launched by American designers with out the assent of Paris. Palm Beach first put it's seal on it, and since then, women have eagerly demanded it. Paris took it up and the gingham dress of 1917 was the smartest af- fair imaginable. Women who had long relegated it to the nursery ard the house dress, wore it at the beach, the country club, and on the street in the big cities. Now that cool days are coming, the designers are reluc- tantly laying it on one side, to be talk en out next spring, however. Thers are quaint silks and chiffon taffetas to take its place, with the gingham pattern carefully carried out. I saw a most attractive dress on the avenue the other day, of blue-and-white- check taffeta, with large hip pockets and a surplice waist.
 Lavish Use of Fur.
 Fur promises to be used this yea! as much or more than it was last. Al the windows are full of fall suits ant coats with bands, huge collars, anc even pockets and belts of fur. One ex travagant dress had the skirt as fal up as the hip, the collar and cuffs made of seal, with the rest of the cos tune of Georgette crepe.

NEWS OF A VERY
 BECOMING UNIFORM

Never has there been time when the fashions have seemed so practical. The narrow skirts do away with any extravagant use of material, for the straight silhouette reigns supreme. Of course there is drapery usually on the side, little below the hip, but even this does not detract from the length of the line from shoulders to hem.
 There is no excuse whatever for any woman to dress unbecomingly. One does not now hear the old complaint "Oh, but the styles do not become me. What am to do?" The styles do be- come us, each and every one, for there has never been a time when the the individuality of women can be go clearly studied and expressed.
