' WOMAN MAKES MERE MAN MUCH
 ASHAMED OF SELF
Somewhere in France Miss Ellen Cow Drives Big Truck Under Adverse Conditions for Army
CBv ELOISE ROBINSON

PARIS, Sept 30, (By Mail. )-The lieutenant looked worried and little apologetic.
 'I don't like to ask it. I know that isn't what the Y. M. c. A. is for But if it is possible"
 How about it, Miss Cow? You're the enc to say" The divisional sec. retary turned to the woman in the motor transport uniform.
 Why, certainly, lieutenant. If you're not afraid to trust me I've never driven a truck of this kind. or any car as heavy as that, and you're taking a risk
 'I1l take it!" The lieutenants frown disappeared. Gosh, that sets my mind at resti If l sent the only man I have down to Paris for the truck he would be a month getting back with it, an goodness only knows what condition it would be in when it got here. But I'll rest easy if you undertake it. If you can get back in- side of two weeks l wish you'd do it.
 So Miss Ella Cow, a Scottish wom- an serving with the American Y. M. Cs 3A-s Nhbs tg AAlt way Has Uttl decorated for distinguished service to the Serbian government-went to Paris and brought back the truck. She isn't very big, herself, and everybody said she couldn't do it. They didnt t know her.
 She came driving up the hill into " nj just a week from the time she had left, and one day and night of that time had been spent on the train getting to Paris.
 'She works little hard, lieutenant, g Miss Cow told the officer You have to shove her clear through to fourth and then bring her back to where you want her"
 The lieutenant tried to shove her. He couldn't. He pushed and pantec and became red in the face and used bad words. But nothing worked.
 She is a beast" Miss Cow admit ted. You have to get Oh to her But think l can make her all right if you don't mind my taking her apart"
 Do anything you want" growled the lieutenant
 So Miss Cow took her apart, and now the lieutenant can drive her.

JAMES DOUGLAS AND
 WIFELEAvE FOR EAST

DOUGLAS, Oct. 19.-At the depot Thursday night there were number of friends of Maj. and Mrs. J. $. Doug i las to bid them goodbye as they took their departure for the east, Major Douglas en route to France, and Mrs. | Douglas to New York, where she will visit with her son, Jimmy. now in school there.
 They will stop in Washington for few days before proceeding to New York for visit with friends there.
 Major Douglas went to France a year ago, having rendered his services to the Red Cross without compensa- tion. He was soon put in charge of Red Cross warehouses and stores in France and he was then commissioned as major. He was joined by w. H. Brophy, of Bisbee, who became his assistant and has been in charge of the work during his visit to America, having made the trip on account of the serious illness of his father, who died few days after his return to New York
 After the burial of his father. Ma jor Douglas came to his home here and addressed the residents of the city, telling them of conditions and his experiences in France. He also spoke at Bisbee, Phoenix, Prescott, and Jerome and his recital of war conditions and the outlook for the future was a treat to those who heard him. His visit to Jerome was timed with the inauguration of the new. smelter of the United Verde Exten- sion. Later he went for a trip into Canada for the purpose of getting rid of an attack of hay fever
 Major Douglas does not take any stock in the recent peace proposals coming from Germany and has little hope that real peace. the only kind that should ever be considered, a peace after the unconditional sur render of the enemy. will be realized before the end of next year. He rec ognized the strong military forces and great Qualifications which must be shattered before the forces of the all lies will be able to even reach Ger man soil.

 To the Y. NJ. c. A. and My Other | Friends in Bisbee; Greeting:
 The other day some nice person in Bis5ee sent me a copy of the Sunday Review. There was no return address, so I take this opportunity to thank him for his kindness. It felt good to see it again, and I read it from be- ginning to end. And it seemed to me to reflect the sturdy honesty, fairness and genuineness of Bisbee. The edi- torials were especially good. ! It has not been long in point of time. since I left to enter this Y. NJ. C. A. war work, but in experience il has ! seemed long time.

Of course, they may think that they have to applaud, Gas they are detailed as military duty to hear me speak but I like to think that it is spontan- eous. Speaking their language gives me fine opportunities of service among these people, and they are very ap- lpreciative.
 In this work you do things that you never dreamed that you could do be- fore, and its keeps ones faculties fully alive. This American army, in it's average intelligence and character, is undoubtedly the best army in the world. To borrow a phrase from Shakespeare, They are cen as brave men as my conversation ever coped withal" We play football twice a week, and though it is a long time since my football days, line up with the second team to help give the boys some practice.

If any one feels like giving the soldiers a real boost, and don't know just what to do,-write a letter to one or more of themE At the front they say that the arrival of the mail is more import ant than a battle, because a letter represents the things that make bat tie worth while.

with the draping on one side only and the other edge straight. When the straight edge is lapped over the right side it is suitable for the street while it takes on an evening aspect when the reverse is the case. A little frock of this kind thus serves double duty when you have long sleeves and a chemisette collar to raise the neck line in the daytime and a swatling sash, a low neck and no sleeves to speak of for the night. The matter of the sleeves is quite easy. for they can be- of georgette in the long loose bell shape SO much favored now and can be attached to a separate net lin- ing On which the chemisette collar is founded. If the silk of the frock is figured the sleeves may match it in plain color while the chemisette and wide collar for afternoon may be of white organdie or of white net If silk is plain and after all soft silks are more apt than not to be plain this year, the sash for evening may be one of those lovely eastern silks so rich in coloring or of the wide ribbons in lowered or fancy striped effects. The neck too may need little additional attention for evening and here the soft line of the chemise collar may play its part in chiffon or a brilliant hued satin.
 Another way of camouflaging the separate skirt is that of the belt with pockets or the novel side panels. The foundational skirt is a straight shirred one of satin or tricotine such as may be worn with a pretty chiffon or crepe de chine morning jacket for dress up, while the addition of the belt changes it into tailored sport skirt for morn ing wear with a simple waist. The side panels are a little newer than the pockets but some combine the two, having the pocket of the slit variety in the panel itself

There is a possibility of water
power legislation, judging from the
discussion that took place in the
house before the adjournment, al
though the adjournment has tended to
postpone action on the bill. But it
does seem as if the special committee
on water power had prepared a meas
ure which might get through. At all
events less opposition was manifested
to it than to any other such bill that
has ever been presented. This was
noticeable in the discussion of the
measure by Western men. AS a gen.
eral thing in the case of representa-
tives of states where there are vast
forest reserves, Indian reservations
held from development and settlement,
there is nearly always strong opposi-
ton to any water-power legislation
satisfactory to the representatives of
| Eastern states. Western men as a
general rule claim that the resources
lands, are to large extent state prop
efty and ought TO be handled and de-
veloped independently of the national
government. But the large majority
of members of the house have never
acquiesced in that view
AT present there is considerable
doubt as to what will happen when
the bill reaches the senate The bill
now pending in the house is substi-
tute for one which passed the senate
and was agreed to with some reluc-
lance on the part of Western senator's,
and the changes which have been
made may make it obnoxious to them
to such an extent as to cause them to
use all possible efforts to defeat it.
The condition in the senate possibly
will make water-power legislation
doubtful at this session.

War of the Roses.

The war of the roses that never ends
is a war to vanQuiSh beauty with
greater beauty For long ages, since
history began, this has been going on.
Japan and India, Serbia and Persia
cheered on contestants a dozen centu-
ries before Damascus gave to the Cru
saders the damaSk rose for occidental
culture. ''Decisions" have only tenn
porary significance. For example, as
Paris gave Venus the award of beauty,
his namesake city gives southern Cali
fornia the gold medal, the prize of
honor at the Bagatelle competition.
But California must meet world COM
petition in years to come and must
maintain her form or get out of the
running. Rose culture is a progressive
art.
AS for the Germans, we believe they
were not represented at Bagatelle.
That does not matter much. In this,
as in their science, The Teutons are
rather imitators than originatOrs. True
their Duchess de Mecklenburg, their
Cornelia Koch, their Felenberg and
particularly their Princess de Sagan,
with its rich maroon and crimson love

of French types, as the KrOnprinzes-
sin Victoria is a modification of the

HAVE SHOES MATCH GOWNS
Oil Paint May Be Successfully Used
on Canvas Footaear; Opera
ton Is Simple.

1t is possible to have pretty shoes
at small expense to match light
dresses, writes a correspondent. Shoes
of delicate colors are hard to find and
always expensive. One girl wanted a
pair of light gray shoes and this is
how she managed: She had a pair of
white canvas shoes which were some
what soiled. She first scrubbed them
with good white soap and water, using
small brush, then drying them in the
sunshine. She then mixed little black
and white oil paint until the desired
gray shade was obtained. This she
mixed in a cup half full of turpentine.
Very little paint is needed Just
enough to color the canvas. Brush the
liquid over the shoes with a small
paint brush and you will be surprised
to find how nice they look. They dry
with no streaks. Match them in rib
bon for ties. Of course any colors
may be made to match any gown. The
artists paint is not expensive, the
black and white are only a few cents

opening about five inches deep at the
side front making this possible. The
sash, tied loosely, may be in a color
to match either the frock or trim
ming.
The skirt of the dress is very mar

yards in width, and the back of the
coat section is entirely plain, with
only a short round yoke formed by
a continuation of the front panels,
braided, toNrelieve it's severity.
A very interesting and lovely cot
ton fabric brought out this season,
and which is being used in large
quantity for separate skirts, might
be selected for this frock.
The material is satin finished and
closely Stimulates silk satin. 1t laun-
ders well and while closely woven
and with a firm texture it is not as
heavy in weight as the linens usu-
ally selected for tailored garments.
Sateen is an old-time favorite, but
this new material does not show the

COOL LINEN FROCKS
Gown May Be Developed in
White. With Braiding
to Suit.
Skirt Is Very Narrow; Back of Coat
Section Plain; New Fabric Fine
for Separate Garment.

Frocks of heavy linen, smartly tall
ored, are fashionable for warm
weather wear. They are expensive
when bought ready to wear, and GER
tainly not particularly cheap when
made at home, as good linen fabrics
are scarce and very high in price.
But unless one wishes to wait until
the very end of the season, when
inark-down sales have brought prices
to a reasonable level, making things
at home is a less expensive method
Of dressing than purchasing them
ready to wear, and certainly more in
dividuality is possible.
The sketch offers a suggestion for a
linen frock, which may be developed
in white with soutache braiding in
navy, yellow or other color, or the
gown may be in color with white
0raiding. 1t is a slip-over affair, an

Dark Sleeves in Rlouses.

Dark sleeves are shown in some of
the attractive new blouses of tan

ways watching for some practical
touch in new clothes, these blouses ap-
peal nightly. For the dark sleeves,
be it remembered, do not show soil so
quickly as light ones. 1t is a rather
gloomy thought to remember that they
probably really do become soiled al
most as quickly as do white ones. But
if you must wear a blouse for con-
siderable stretch of time-on a long
railroad journey, for instance, or all

may be a bit dusty-you feel far fresh

sleeved blouse than in a light one.
