Americans Deliver Attack.

With the French Armies in the Field
The German third line in the region
of Dogs Wood, on the Lorraine front,
was penetrated by 300 American infan-
trymen May 3, in the first operation
ever conducted exclusively with Amer
lean artillery.
The attack followed an intense bonn
bardment by the Yankee batteries.
1.-The American gunners displayed
perfect mastery of the French artillery
methods" declared the French official
note, in which the attack was am
nounced.

BAN ON CASUALTY LISTS RAISED
Addresses Of u. s. Soldiers Killed or
Wounded Again Published.

Washington-The war department
has resumed the practice of giving ad-
dresses of American soldiers named In
the casualty lists SEM from France.
The decision was made by President
Wilson, to whom the public appealed,
when the addresses were ordered dis
continued. The president took up the
subject with Secretary Baker imme.
diately after the secretary's return
from France.

Bohemian Troops Join Italy.

London-The Daily Nails correspon.
dent at Italian headquarters says that
the Bohemian troops are joining the
Italian troops against Austria and that
the first d~etachments are already on
the Italian fighting line wearing Ital-
ian uniforms.
The detection of the Bohemians
would in a measure explain the delay
in the proposed great offensive long
heralded, OF the Austrians against the
Italians.

a renewal of the Teutonic offensive

hair In summer. In winter, to be sure,
you can benefit the hair by sitting
sometimes with it hanging over your
shoulders In a sunny window. In
summer, however, the sun Is all too
likely to fade the hair, and for that
reason the hair should be protected
against its rays whenever possible.
But nevertheless the air is good for
the hair. as you can easily prove to
yourself by noting the improvement In

but still when the hours in the Red

false fronts are sold for nurses TO

Another fact about this fashion for
black. for which we are truly CRATE
ful. is the extreme manner in which
1t Is presented. There Ia nothing
gloomy or depressing in the wav II
Is handled. Only the color itself
strikes a sombre note. But color is
always the note of victory. the SYM
boil of a deed we'll done. and as the
psychology Of the masses is the most
important thing Of the hour. we
should become students Of this science
OF the mind and exploit II to the
greatest extent
1t might be wise for us to follow in
detail the psychology OF the general
issimo OF the allied armies, Gen. Foch.
One who knows him we'll says Gen.
Foch thinks that to be gloomy Is to
admit that matter has conquered
spirit. Hopefulness Is first In his creed
Of victory.
Maxims of Victory.
He believes that depression is a con-
fession OF intellectual weakness and
will lose more battles of every kind
than any other single cause. Mind
power, thinks Gen. Foch, can snatch
victory out of defeat. He says that in
battle no man need ever be tired at
crisis II he manages his mind right.
One Of his great maxims Is Resist
the irresistible" and another favorite
maxim is Victory is a thing of the
will"
1t is quite probable that Foch will
go down in history as maker Of
epigrams. for the wise student Of this
man and his tactics Is garnering up
MS brief and vivid sayings. 1t would
he well for us in America not only to
let him direct our soldiers, as he Is
doing. but also to let him direct our
mind. our temperament and our out
look on the war
There Is no getting away from the
sentence that Victory Is a thing of
the Will" 1t Is this psychology that
We should work upon. and the con-
slant wearing OF black does not help
toward a more brilliant expression of
the Will and the spirit. Therefore IL
We must wear black gowns. even
though We are not in mourning, let us
nave them as gay as possible.
Brilliant jet contributes to the vivid |
ness Of black gown, and it has been
reinstated by the designers in >fas-
cihating fashion. Entire frocks are
made OF 1t for dinners and dances.

l. ton that badness among the
English soldiers would be so
prevalent that after the war most men
returned from the trenches would he
In n condition to wear wigs And, said
he. women, too. would lose hair as a
result of war worry.
IL this surmise Is true so far as the
English are concerned, there Is no rea-
son to suppose that America can es-
cape war badness without much ef-
fort. There really is such thing as
war nerves and ii is likely enough that
the worry incident to war will react on
the condition of the hair. Then salt
water bathing Is apt to injure the hair
II proper precautions are not oh
served.
1t is therefore obvious that women
should take extra care OF their locks
this summer. To. begin with, il is of
the greatest importance to keep the
hair clean in summer. Not that IL
ought to be cleaner in summer than
in winter, but that it is more difficult
to keep clean because the dust of
summer accumulates in the hair,
especially If 1t is moist from perspira-
ton.

gown that was the product o, clever
designer and It. surely turned our
ideas about suits topsyturvy
The coat was split up the back as
we'll as the front. 1t was worn over
long cuirass blouse, the kind tina,
gains in Importance every Goy. The
blouse was made OF a richly en-
broldered tricot in blue, black and
dashes of dull red. 1t did not cling
tightly to the figure, but outlined 1t
more than usual.
over 1t hung the loose blue serge
coat, opening in n deep V in the middle
OF the front and the back. 1t was
closed at the neck line and had collar
of the serge. There was a loose bel,
of the material and the skirt was cX.
ceedingly narrow and short.
BY the way, 1t is wise for any
woman who orders a new suit to to-
day to see that the skirt has a stable
hem, for the new order to the shoe
makers, given by the Government.

duration OF the war. may change the

/ doubt It. The length may BE-
changed, but It will not be because OF
the low shoes. for CATERS, which are
made of fabric. may be as high as
desired, and women prefer them to
high boots.
We may also adopt the French
fashion of wearing servlceable oxford
ties with straight heels and rounded
toes. The boot makers say they have
more orders for these to-day than
ever. With such shoes the average
woman does not care whether her
skirt is eight or ten inches from the
ground. unless she is given to suffer-
ing from exposed ankles.

In our purchases of clothes to the ex-
tent Of destroying the ability OF the
skilled person to earn living wage,
but there Is demand. and there soon
will be a necessity, for us to conserve
our caprices. We must wear clothes
in materials and colors easily pro-
duced in this country. and through
this means will come the standardized
ton OF fashions.
This does not mean that we will
dress alike: it means that we may
dress with more variety than ever
before. But we mustn't say that we
don't like taffeta, for instance, and
that we want something newer. We
must take taffeta IL there Is plenty Of
1t, and then make the best OF 1t.
Much can be done with this ma
terial that will result in a gown out of
the ordinary and conspicuous for
charm and cleverness. II you could
have seen woman who came into a
restaurant for dinner wearing a GER
tain black taffeta gown you would
have been convinced in the twinkl!ng
Of an eye that the fabric matters moth
ing IL the designer has cleverness.
The skirt was made of narrow ruff
fies that extended from waist to an
kles, each ruffle edged with a white
silk cord. The hem was excessively
narrow. The foundation for these ruff
fles fitted the figure like n sheath.
There was a bodice. straight and
simple. and the major part of it was
a yoke with short sleeves which was
braided with white cord in a fantastic
design. At the side OF the waist was
a deep pink satin rose with green vel
vet leaves. The slippers and stock
ings were green. There was nothing
demure about this black taffeta gown.
Blue serge Is a fabric that will al
ways be with u.s. as far as the manu-
facturer and the War Board can look
ahead. Now what are we going TO
do with 1t to lift it out of the common
place?
1t Is usually midnight blue, and
given a few yards of it in this color
the designers do not want to sit down
and turn 1t out into insignificant
frocks and inconspicuous suits. AS
an evidence that they do not intend to
remain in rut they have already de-
signed costumes of this average. rou-
tine material which make one gasp.
