MRS. Sammy Goes to Work"
TT is not a necessity that all sol
der wives seek employment, but
L for those who do, office work
appeals more strongly than any
other line of work. Boyles col
lege is at present putting forth ex-
ira effort to train soldier wives for
office positions, and in doing this,
they give these particular students
their choice of whatever hours that
are most convenient for study. Of
flee positions at the present time
are paying better than any other
line of work, and the soldier de-
pendent is really making herself
independent by taking up such a
course of study.
Loose kimono-lined coats with
hobble hens, and bouffant draped
silhouette is the newest within
evolved by the Paris designers.
There Are Queens and Queens.
m HIS time it's the Laundry
Queen" one of the many de-
l. lightful electrical household ap-
pliances in the E. B. Williams Shop,
5l2 South Eighteenth street Gust
across the street from the court
house.) As you may have guessed,
the Laundry Queen is the name con-
ferred on an electric washer worthy
of this clever name. The first point
which appeals particularly to me Is
the fact that it's so very easy to
handle. The wooden or copper tub
rests on a frame of steel which has
an extension rack which may be
attached for a rinsing tub. The
whole has casters, making it most
convenient to move. There is no
machinery in the tub; when you lift
the lid it stops the washer. When
ready to rinse the clothes shift the
lid with dolly" attached, dropping
it into the rinsing tub, where with
quick shaking, dousing motion the
smooth sticks of the dolly" rinse
the most delicate fabrics and laces
with absolutely no wear or tear"
To save time, you can operate both
washer and wringer at the same
time. The wringer is operated by
the moving of handle, and may
be rolled either way. By switch
ing the wringer over the basket,
the clothes may be wrung from the
rinsing tub directly into the bas-
ket. From suds to line" indeed.
Small, inexpensive furs, scorned
in days of peace, will warm the fas-
tidious "fashionables" this winter.

A Fitting Tribute.
HOR the nations honored dead
is a wreath which | saw in
l. the making at the John Bath
Flower Shop, Eighteenth and Far
nam streets. Magnolia leaves in
rich dark green formed the foun-
dation. The lower part of the cir
Gle was garlanded with roses in soft
pink, cream and gold. These were
massed with artistic touches OF
maiden hair fern at the lower right,
while to give height and dignity at
the left were three Japanese cycas
leaves. Just over the tops Of these
leaves an artfully arranged knot
of satin banded chiffon interviewer
with the STARS and Stripes" dropped
yelling ends over the roses. You
may be assured of a subtle inter
probation of sympathy in this art
istic flower shop.
