 There is something quite difficult about the convolutions of the ancient skirts, and it is not possible for an anna teur to copy them. They need the hand of an artist and a skilled draper to manage the wrappings and pleatings that outline. without confning, the body.
 But as it is task for good dress makers. and as a successful achievement commands a good price, there is cer- tainty that we shall have many gowns that are swirled around the figure after q manner that the historians of dress find spreading through all the primitive countries

Germans Buy Liberty Bonds

capt. Arthur Hunt Chute, in Leslie,s l Not only have the poor responded nobiv
 10 the call to buy Liberty Bonds, but also those of German birth. At a neet;ny which I addressed in Union Square in New York one of the committee warned
 me to be conciliatory, as my audience would contain number of Germans. My first words on rising to speak were: nave been warned to be conciliatory. as many in my audience are Germans. we'll my business is killing Germans! II there are any Germans here. let's get down to business! But believe there are no Germans in this audience. I be- lleve you are all Americans, and unless 1t proves otherwise, I shall treat you as such Great applause greeted this last remark, and a proof that I was correct in my attitude came later when scores of slips were handed in, signed for subscriptions to Liberty Bonds by men with German names
 A New York broker tells of a certain German, who in 1914 was very rabid for the Teuton cause. The other day he came to the broker and requested that he sell all his securities, and invest the proceeds in Liberty Bonds.
 Why, how is that, Otto*' said the broker. T thought that you were in favor of the central powers"
 No such thing declared Otto. "I've had my eyes opened. I've seen what beasts they really are and I've come to the conclusion that if I'm to make my home safe, it will only be by wiping out this curse. We've got to give these Germans a blanked good licking, and I'm willing to stake every cent I've got to help give them that licking"
 The triumphant success of the second Liberty Loan is living proof that the United States is in this war all overr
