R WILDWOOD

The regular semi-monthly meeting
Of the North Wildwood City Council
was held Tuesday evening, with all
members present. The principal mat
ter of interest was the opening Of bids
for the heating of the city hall. There
were four bidders as follows:
Koeneke Bros....".........$707.2 %
William H. Law-...... 1883
George Webb.............. S14.50
". w. 6enn. 49,
All bids were rejected because there
had been no provision made to raise
the money. City Solicitor Tatem was
appealed to and said since the item
was not covered in the appropriation
ordinance the expenditure could not
legally be made. Mrs. Viola s. Shiv-
ers, Thomas Corson and Warren B.
Gordon made written application for
~janitor Of the city hall, all being read.
Mr.. Gordon was elected. The Marine
National Bank was the only bidder for
the $57, 600 worth of six per zen float
ing Indebtedness bonds, and they were
awarded to that bank at their bid OF
$1O1.4O, the whole lot netting the city
a premium of 1913. Council having
learned OF the death of Chosen Free
s. H. Townsend a resolution was pass
ed paying tribute to his worth as a
citizen and a public official, having
9 erved the City of North Wildwood as
auditor and commissioners adjustment
of taxes for many years. Council ad-
jourDed to meet Tuesday evening,

Letter from France

Walter Dennison, son of Letter Car
rier John J. Dennison, who enlisted in
the army last July, writes to his moth
er from France as follows, under date
Of September Is, 1917:
1--WE have made another move and
are still enjoying life, even though we
are in the army and In a country that
Is at war. We nov have our W army
cooks preparing our meals and they
will not lose their jobs, If quality and
quantity be considered. [ am still in
the best Of health and gaining in
weight. We are nearly as comfortable
here as we were at home. We have
spring beds, white sheets and feather
pillows. We expect to go to work
next week In our shops. We also ex-
pect to get paid sometime before the
spring drive. Our pay for some un-
known eason has been held up, but
I am just as well off, excepting that 4
cannot get anything to smoke. l
would like very much to have you
send me some cigarettes. We will
have an army store, known to us army
men as a canteen, open in a few days,
and 1 understand we will be able to
get credit here up to one-third of DER
pay each month. In this store we will
be able to buy anything we may need
from chewing gum to a suit, and all
the profit, and that will be little, goes
back to the company fund. This fund
Is used to supply such dainties as the
army menu does not, pies, buildings,
etc. To give you an idea of how we
eat here tonight for supper we will
have fried beef steak smothered with
onions, French fried potatoes, bread
and butter and tea. They are falling
in for supper now, Sc I must moi miss
any of it,"

of the head, after the manner of so
many of the famous Greek statues,
writes Idalia de Villiers, q Paris cor
respondent.
Then a long length of gold gallon
edged with black is passed round the
forehead, then round the chignon, with
a bow tied underneath the latter. Any
one with regular features could adopt
this headdress with much benefit, but
pretty girls with small and uncertain
noses would do better to copy the sec
ond style which shows a narrow ban
deau of multicolored beads drawn
round hair dressed in Julia James
fashion.
In this latter headdress the hair Is
cut In a fringe across the forehead and
loose curls over the ears. Artificial
waves have completely gone out of
favor and all our best ~hairdressers are
trying to give natural effects, even
when making use of the waving tongs.
Kiss curlS yer the ears are still In
favor and straight fringes are worn by
every second smart one one meets.

allowed TO pay for the bonds on the
installment plan, the prospect is that
the total subscriptions of enlisted men
will reach into the millions.
The army officers are using their In
fiuence to encourage all the enlisted
men, as well as officers, who have
money to spare, TO invest it In the
bonds, the two-fold purpose being to
encourage the men In saving their
money rather than squandering 1t, and
to improve the morale of the camps.
Two days have been set apart for
speechmaking, with special programs
designed to encourage the purchase of
Liberty Bonds, and the camps are as
gay with Liberty Loan posters as else
where. The "Yn secretaries are spread
ing the idea at all gatherings, encourag-
ing the soldiers to put their money to
work for democracy and make surer
and speedier their success on the field
and the earlier their return home.
1--WE should help men to realize that
they should prepare, not to die, but
to live,n said Arthur M. East, in charge
of the Thrift Campaign for the Y. M.
q. A. "We do not want them to be
morally, physically or financially
bankrupt"
Each cantonment will have a clock
to register the progress of the sale of
Liberty bonds and rivalry has sprung
up between regiments to see which
shall lead In subscriptions.

Pockets to Go.

AS to materials for the fall gowns
the manufacturers claim that, just as
designers for men have promised to
reduce the amount of material used
by the elimination of the large pock-
cts, so designers for women will make
the wool suits narrower and palmer
for the same reason.
The pocket will undoubtedly go
along with the other unnecessary ap-
pendages. The manufacturers are
making the cotton back with wool
filling for the same reason.

USE MUCH WOOL EMBROIDERY
signs on Almost Every Kind of Ma
terial, Even Chiffon.

Since the simple silhouette is an es-
tablished fact, an opportunity has been
given women to spend their time and
energy upon the charming details of
their costumes. In America we have
been so busily engaged changing the
cut of skirts and the width of sleeves
that we had no spare moments to spend
upon the little hand touches, the eX-
pert f~nishings, and the hemstitched
edges. These seemingly Insignificant
niceties are really important, says
a writer In the New York Times. In
Paris they realized that ages ago and
took advantage of the fact, sending us
each season creations to excite envy
because of their infinite attention to
the little things that put their stamp
of perfection upon the finished gown.
Wool embroidery, the Partisan edict
is, shall be an important factor in the
trimming of winter frocks. They are
drawing wooden threads through it on
silk and satin, on serge and velvet, and
-yes-even on chiffon. And the pat
terms? They are no longer effects of a
group of roses or a chain of daisies
stamped l%aboriously upon the material
and then worked over in tiny, close
lying stitches. The artist takes q
large-eyed needle and a strand of
b~right-colored wool and works out a de-
sign directly upon the gown, directly
upon the spot where it will live until
the whole creation has become passe.

Uncle Sam Needs 10000 StenO
qraphers and TypeWriters

Washington, D. c., October 10, 1917.
Now that Uncle Sam has the young
men of the country in training for mill
itary service, he finds that he needs
5000 typewriter operators and steno-
graphers and typewriters, both men
and women, for the Departments at
Washington. The Civil Service Com
mission has notified all of its 1900
boards of examiners that they should
put forth their best efforts to secure
these urgently needed workers. While
examinations are now held weekly In
450 cities, the Commission states that
arrangements will be made to have an
examination held at any accessible
place where a small class of applicants
car be secured. The entrance salaries
range from 81 900 to 81, 200 year. Pro-
motion is reasonably rapid to those
whose services prove satisfactory. No
appointments can be made to these or
other positions in the Federal classified
civil service unless authorized by the
Civil Service Commission under the
civil service la W. Any information to
the contrary is unauthorized. This is a
splendid opportunity to serve your
country. Full information may be Sc
cured from the secretary of the board Of
civil service examiners at the post Of
