old house now occupied by our Manhattan
Branch of the Home Service Bureau at 12O
East Nineteenth Street. The warm May
breeze f1uttered the curtains inward, but the
dignifed tulips on the desk refused to be
stirred by it. The Red Cross banner hung far
out over the entrance, making it easy to find
as one turned down the street. Despite the
hum of typewriters and activity and visitors,
everywhere was easy formality and open doors.

our Home Service posters with our address

are the Red Cross Home Service men at every

and helpless, with our two little kids, that
would bother lot if I didn't know exactly
how things stood at home'
Would the Red Cross undertake the CORE
spondence? l had smiled when I heard the
story. Of course the need was there. but it
did seem such fussy little job for the big
Red Cross, with all it's mighty worldwide bur-
dens and responsibilities! Did they evade it?
Not much! Each week fat, friendly letter
goes to the sailor, full of home gossip and de-
tails, written by Red Cross worker who
regularly visits his wife
The sailor when he applied said that his
wife had always relied absolutely on him in
everything, and before he went away he
wanted the Red Cross to get in touch with her
so that he could feel she had friend to turn
to. And above all, if his money was slow in
coming through, would the Red Cross tide her
over! The babies arrival had eaten up all of
his savings. All this and more the Red Cross
did.

most doubled. AS antidote, ornate trim
mings are extremely bad taste, and a woman
may invest almost her entire dress allowance
in frst-class materials which will not de-
pend on expensive trimming to speak for
them.
The silks, including foulard, taffeta, china
silk, silk crepe, Georgette and satin, retail at
from $1.50 to So yard. Very few materials
can be bought for less than $1.50, although
many of the more elaborate ones soar far be-
yond So.
The Scotch and American ginghams have
risen proportionately. A worthwhile gngham
will cost at least so cents yard Many of
the finer ginghams and caicos hover alarm
ingly near the dollar mark Shantung, a cool
and popular summer dress material, is $125
yard and japanese silks are $1.5O or So.
These initial outlays make the cost of
dress seem staggeringly large Five or six
yards, unless the woman is exceptionally
small, are required for any dress, however
simple. The prices quoted are the standard
prices A woman who watches special sales
will effect very radical savings in buying
dress materials.
How we'll it will wear is the next consider
alton. This is where buying good material
counts. Shower proof foulards, china silk,
crepe de chine and silk crepe have long held
the record for wear. In quiet colors they may
be worn with topcoats far into the winter
Taffeta is somewhat of lottery. If it is
good quality it will outwear many of its sister
silks, but if it is inferior a half dozen ap-
pearances may result in hopeless cuts.
Satin, if it is not of the best, gets "knotty."
and, although it is delightful for spring and
fall, the brittle gloss makes it appear excep~
tionally warm in summer. Georgette and
chiffons for dressy wear are cool and have

unexpected wearing qualities for such sheer
materials.
The organdies, voiles and nets which tempt
US on the first warm day also wear well, but
from the standpoint of general utility are not
advisable for the woman who spends larr
part of the summer in the city. She will not
wear out the dress in one season, and with The
first chilly day it will have to be laid away
to rot or to go hopelessly out of style.
Women these days have such varied inter
ests that the fourth question is timely one
War economy demands that they buy fewer
dresses, and their interests lie in SO many
fields that finding two or three frocks suitable
for twenty or thirty different occasions be-
comes a real problem.
Here again do foulards and silks come to
the 'front.' A silk dress, simply made, is not
too dressy for morning shopping or business,
and is always suitable for afternoon, or even
informal evening wear. On the other hand,
cotton materials, gingham or calico are many
times too "summery" Elaborate, perishable
gowns are luxuries in which few women feel
that they can invest. The greatest utility,
then, devolves upon the silk dress, cool, pfsc-
tical, always in good taste and becoming.
The question Of beauty must be left 70

The first condition is difficult one. Wool
Of course, is to be used as little as possible
A new substitute is being put on the market
at price little less than the regulation
suitings. 1t looks like wool and feels like
wool, but whether not it will have the
same wearing qualities has not yet been
proved Thoroughly reliable suitings that may
be used instead of wool are cotton homespun
and basket weave cloths.
In cotton the conservation question becomes
even more difficult. Every woman who spends
"a morning a week. at the Red Cross rooms
can testify to its war value. The Red Cross
is the greatest consumer Of cotton fabrics
both for hospital garments and gauze and
muslin bandages.
Aeroplanes for the training schools are
made with wings of fine grade cotton. Linen
is used on the planes for foreign service The
reason for the discrimination is that shot
through linen leaves a clean hole, while cot
ton Immediately rips, and the repairs are
difficult and expensive.
1t would be folly to suggest that every wom-
an select her summer outfit without a single
cotton frock. Muslin might we'll be rejected
but dress of gngham or calico will not, we
are assured, seriously hamper war work.
Silk, from the standpoint of conservation
is the best material to buy. To be sure, raw
silk is used in munition manufacture and in
balloons, but there is still enough to permit
every woman to select her summer clothes
with silk as the first material consideration.
Economy is the next question, and who shall
say that it is not an all-mportant one? Every

material is not economy. It is extravaganza

Wear Six for Uncle Sam
In the Morning
By ELIZABETH BLAND GETZ

A N ILLUSION which American women
~ have been harboring for generations
has at last been dispelled by the war.
1t is the 81 simply haven't thing to wear"
illusion. The relic Of ante-bellum extrava-
gance who persists in taking her clothes so
seriously is being denounced by womanly
Americans as positive menace to our morale.
Conservation has become an obsession.
Women have already signifed their willing
ness to use what the government can't, and
even that sparingly. What the government
can't! That is almost negligible. Velvet is
about the only material not used, and an en-
tire summer wardrobe Of velvet would rival
the medieval sackcloth in discomfort. How
ever, women have already replaced sweat
ers of precious wool with velvet, sleeveless
jackets, and have been rewarded with dis
covery of their becomingness and utility.
Even an inferior grade of velvet plush does
not escape the ban, for it is used in a GER
tain style of gas mask.
Absolute avoidance of war materials. then,
would be impossible 1t remains for women
to use the least needed materials and those
which boast trinity of virtues to recommend
them utility, comfort and economy.
Mr.. Ziegfeld, with remarkable foresight,
years ago introduced clothes conservation.
Unfortunately, Mr.. Ziegfeld conserved not
wisely but too we'll, and no American woman
need fear being asked to limit her summer
wardrobe to service badge and Red Cross
button. All that she is asked to do is to buy
her clothes with five points in view: /. How
little the material is needed for government
work. 2. How little it will cost. g. How we'll
1t will wear. a. For how many different oc-
New-York tribune., 1918-05-19

contributions to the hundred million dollars
needed to carry on the glorious work of the
American Red Cross both at home and over
seas
/ felt that it would be almost criminal to
neglect an opportunity to do this, but there
seemed no form of sugar coating with which
TO camoudage my plea, for the plans for this
drive were very like those Of its predecessors
only more so.
Just between ourselves, any appeal for sub
scriptions to this fund seems utterly super
f1uous for never has there been drive that
carried the close personal appeal of this
coming as it does at the moment when so
many of our own are being cared for by the
American Red Cross workers on the Western
front. Think of it, mothers and fathers, Sis
ters and brothers, wives and sweethearts of
the men on the firing line, your own contribu-
ton to this drive may be the means of bring
ing comfort to that man whose photograph in
khaki stands your table.
Nevertheless, a newspaper story must have
''trimmin's,' and just as was in despair in
came the foreign mail with letter from Lett
tia. That young woman, be it known, months
