OId-CIothes "CIinics" the Fashion.

To be up to date these days your
community should have an old-clothes
clinic, the department of agriculture
suggests. Not the amount you spend
on clothes but the amount you save
is the criterion by which you are
judged in this year of war. The home
demonstration agents usually hold the
clinics, and old garments are brought,
ripped and made over by the women
under their direction. This woal-con-
serving campaign in Iowa is particu-
larry strong.
