thing but a novelty these frosty days
but the designer Of the coat pictured

from the knuckle of the hand to the

The flare, welcome change from

ness held smoothly in check by a fit

The deep, graceful cuffs reach al

Army Safeguarded
By Use Of VaccineS

The laboratory at the Army ana
Medical School has shipped since
April l, 1917, sufficient typhoid and
paratyphoid vaccines to inoculate
every man in the army.
Throughout the process of making
the vaccine is guarded against any
contamination. 1t is then stored In
sealed vessels in locked refrigerators,
to which only the two officers in
charge have keys, and none of these
vessels is ever moved, except in CON-
pany of one of the officers. In more
than six months of large-scale pro-
duction not trace of contamination
has been found.
One of the tests of the vaccines in
cludes the incubation of mouse, a
guinea pig and rabbit. If too much
tricresol "a coal-tar product used as
a preservative and to kill the bacilli)
had been added, the mouse would be
killed. Should tatanus germs be pres
ent, both the mouse and the guinea
pig would be killed. With the emul-
sion correct, as it must be to be used,
no animal is killed, and the guinea
pig and rabbit are not visibly affect
ed by the incubation.

Colonel Leader experienced much dill

Signal corps troops will be avail

civilian labor in logging camps in

nobody has bothered to tidy him up.
For Jimmy Wallen it is said that he
is always "spick and clean" which
may mean that Jimmy is eccentric or
merely that his mother is uncommon
ly vigilant. Anyway, If one must
wash, what's the matter with Just
water? Water also would be saved
on 'soapless day." When kid uses
soap he has to use an unnecessary
amount of water, First he uses wa
ter to get the soap on; then more
water to get it off. Isn't that waste?
Any real boy can get as clean as he

"soapless day" at least the tramps
might be expected to labor with light
hearts. Would that be worth some
thing? Besides all that, soap is dear

ply is not short, but since the sugges-
tion has been made, what boy will

Why Not Observe
'Soapless Day?

A "soapless day has been pro-
posed by a Huntington, W. Va, boy,
which might prove as valuable war
measure as some others that have
received favorable approval of the
authorities. This boy, Jimmy
Wallen by name, is credited with the
practical aim of Saving fats so much
needed by the allies" but is it not
possible a more useful purpose might
he served by doing without soap one
day every week? War measures, OF
necessity, are harsh. usually They
call for sacrifice in most cases. Meat
less days, for example, bear severely
on those persons who think meat was
made to eat, while the vegetarian
contributes nothing to the common
cause by foregoing beef or pork on
the prescribed days. Yet who shall
say that the vegetarian is not more
closely bound to our war to make
the world safe because meatless days

joy? Would not the patriotism of
the youngsters be stimulated were
they to give up" soap one day a
week? Surely that would be the day

certain they we're doing something to
win the war. They know soap is no

Air Raid Is Like
Deafening Thunder

Like a summer thunderstorm drift
ing down the Hudson, an air raid
comes upon London, says the New
York Tribune.
There is a distant rumbling OF
coast guns, with occasional flashes
of light just over the horizon. Peo-
pie in the streets begin scurrying for
shelter. Those far from home have
to decide whether to risk dash for
1t or take cover in the nearest build
ing
In short while shrapnel, like the
light drops of rain that precede a
violent storm, begins to patter down.
The last few stragglers get under
cover, and with a suddenness that
startles the storm breaks.
A great white flash of light, fol-
lowed by the terrific crash of bomb,
Then a laundering roar as dozens Of
guns blaze forth. The noise rever-
berates through the sky and rumbes
along the deserted streets. Electric
lights wink and blink and sometimes
go out. Shutters rattle and window
panes shake with the conclusions.
Shrapnel pelts down in veritabe
shower, punctuated now and then
with a more brilliant flash and the
deeper crash of explosives.
It is the noise that frightens most
people. The deafening detonations
as the aerial battle reaches its height
overhead set people shivering AMI
trembling in their easements or hast
lily improvised dugouts on the ground
floor. If one stays under cover there
is no danger from the rain of shrap-
mel and only an infinitesimal chance
of being struck by the lightning of
a bomb
Gradually the battle noises drift
off to the eastward and out over the
sea- Shrapnel no longer falls, and
the lightning strikes further and fur
ther away each time. One can count
the seconds between the flashes and
the rumble which follows.
Windows go up and heads are
thrust out. Every one is asking his
neighbor:
did they strike near here? Is 1t
all over?"
Traffic is resumed in the streets
The stars come out from behind the
haze of smoke. The moon bathes the
city in peaceful radiance. 1t might
have been only a thunderstorm after
all.

Every soldier employed at logging

pany and pay regular charges as in

Logging companies may extend
credit to soldiers for the purchase Of
clothing, tobacco and such supplies
as are ordinarily carried in camp
stores. The government assumes no
responsibility for the collection of
such store debts, but will take proper
disciplinary measures where men fail
to pay. Enlisted men will purchase
any necessary logging clothing from
their own funds and may wear same
when at work. At other times they
will appear in regulation uniform.

pear among them demlseaSon hats

Three of the latest hats for after

proved styles. Another group of all
black afternoon hats, made of malines
combined with panne velvet, or of
black satin with jet trimming, would
be equally good style and give repre-

holds an uncontested place In the

trimmed hats, look to shape and ma
teriuls for distinction. Two OF the hats
