New York.-The persistence shown
BY France in the dressmaking houses
In continuing q certain trick for sew
eral years, deserves more attention
than is usually accredited 1t, writes
Atme Rittenhouse
A study of the obstinate way In
which Paris designers have held on
to thing they liked might 60 far
toward convincing a vast number of
the critics Of wonen's apparel that
fashions are not as flighty as they
seem. The weather vane turns, it Is
true, but 1t swirls back into the same
quarter so frequently that at times
there Is feeling that 1t changes little.
The American shops, it Is claimed,
constantly convince their patrons that
an old gown must be replaced by a
new one by showing a revolution in
silhouette.
We have millions of women to
dress, where France has thousands,
and we have population that is quite
capable of indulging in its desire for
new clothes from the rim of the arc
tic circle to line above the tropics.
1t Is well-kn0wn fact that the
American buyers who go to Paris to
get new clothes often refuse lovely
gowns If they bear a close kinShip to
those that were sold the year before.
They wave such frocks away with the
remark that American women must
have novelty.
This act has always depressed the
designers In Paris, who care for
beauty and detail rather than for
startling changes, and it Is the French
designers who say that they rack
their brains for eccentricities to give
to America far more than they would
if their clientele were only Rome,
Paris and London.
1t is this underlying trait In the
French dreSSmakers that gives them
the desire to persist in a certain line
which is coming back to the orig
inal discussion
Now the Zouave Skirt.
This line happens to be, at the pres
ent moment that tucked-in effect at
the hem Of the skirt, which Is sugges-
tive Of the trousers, Of the Algerian
troops.
Nobody would remember, probably,
the exact date Of the beginning Of
this idea, but it was evolved long be-
fore the war. 1t has been brought
out in various kinds of skirts.
The house of Callot was probably
the first to bring out the idea in a
narrow skirt, but it did not take.

an American invention, and while there

THERE IS NO GERMANY.

Very often we hear 1t said: Seer
many has created Mitteieuropa." This
Is another mistake. Geographically
speaking. MitteleurOps includes only
Central Europe, and Germany's dom1n-
Ion is infinitely farther flung extending
a. it does from the west front In
France to the British front before Bag
dad. II we wish to see things In the
light OF reality, we must say. for the
present, at least. There ia no longer
any Germany; instead, there is Pan
Germany" This is an essential as
sumption If We are to reason Justly.
The map Of Pan-Germsny at the be-
ginuing OF 1917 shows clearly the es-
sential, but ell too little known, ele-
ments of the present situation, which
10 characterized by the fact that 78
million Germans. aided by 21 million
vassals--Magysrs. slavs and Turks
have reduced to slavery 81 millions Of
Latins, Elavs and Semites. belonging
to 18 different nationalities. Pan-Ger-

Absolutely confident of the armies
driving the German hordes from their
soil, says New York Herald, the peo-
pie OF France are now beginning the
gigantic task of restoration and are
also preparing to meet the exigencies
by which they will be confronted when
peace is declared. Now that the re-
habilitation has been outlined it has
been discovered that one of the great
est social problems the country will
have to deal with after the war Is the
Industrial status of women.

Lowell made q sad blunder, perhaps,
when In his enthusiasm, he wrote that
"still at the prophets feet the nations
SIT" 1t is the soothsayer, not the
prophet, who Ia heard nowadays, the
diviner, not the divine, says the Book
man. We get our ideas too often from
the old mythology and It's warning del
ties. and as we have no power TO emu
late them In heaven we transfer their
atmosphere and attitude to earth.
Shall 1t not be our country's mission
to do Its share In solving the problem?
Shall It's inventiveness and spirit Of
enterprise be confined to mechanics
and trade and not advanced to the no.
bier realm OF ethics that shall make
democracy safe for itself as the near
est duty? Universal training must not
end with the manual OF arms. Our
young people are TO be taught as well
certain Old-time principles for the art
Of life an essentials in courses of study.
Obedience, reverence, self-ccntrol. self
knowledge. the power OF character, the
positive qualities that make for true
living, are no less vital objects of in
struetion. These determine our coun-
try's future to q greater degree than
the size Of our cities, the number of
our mines and mills, our financial
strength or territorial growth.

The real Russia is patriotic. It longs
for the return Of law and order. It
watches with bewilderment the present
frenzy OF the towns, says London Daily
Mail. Before long it will assert Itself
and Will find or fashion the weapons
for enforcing its will Not all the army
by any means has been ruined by the
Soviet. The artillery, the Cossa eks
and the cavalry have remained loyal
to their country and to their officers
and to their traditions throughout. A
terrible winter Of privation and
tumult and suffering lies ahead OF Rus
sia, and the agony will be short-ltved In
proportion to Its intensity. The forces
that make for reason and national

With but picture to remind him
just how his girl looks in the far Off
In the land he left behind him,
Though her faith be true and steadfast,
Often times his thoughts will roam
To the girl he left behind him
And the fellows back at home.
Tho he never doubts his sweetheart,
He will always doubt the men
So YOU all better behave yourself
Till he comes home again
For afar in the distant future
He may come back to us,
Andif you've played him false,
He will start little fuss.
So take this bit of FOOLS advice:
If you ever get chance,
Don't steal soldiers sweetheart,
When her BOY is off in France.

But now its old to me.
At six.twenty you fall in for as.

And you'd better be there too
Or else You'll get a pick and

And do your little do.
Immediately after breakfact. you

This time it's to police the

You pick up cigarette butts and
peanut hulls
And everything else that's Iy-

At seven forty.filve you fall in

This time to go to class
Where you study like the devil
To make sure that you'll pass.
At Attwelve-fifteen you fail in again
This time to go to dinner
OF course, you have to eat you
To keep from getting thinner
At one p. m. you fall in again
For three more hours OF study;
You do 1t when It's dusty
And you do It when It's muddy.
At four-twenty ia the afternoon
you fall in for drill assembly
Then you do two hours OF drill

You do 1T because you have to
And not because you're willing.
At slx-thirty IN the evening
You tall in again for mess
You eat al that you can get
And then fall out and rest.
