For me garuen party and all the Fest of summertime's engaging oppor- tunties for living outdoors some clev- CT hats and bags to match have been made. They all take cognizance of the fact that everywhere tine lady goes her knitting-bag goes, too and 1t is getting to be as much an affair of in terest and importance as the hat it matches. With the introduction of mil linery braidS and laces in it's construc- tion, We have summer knitting bags different from anything that has gone before. Knitting is becoming q sort of national pastime-the tired busi- ness woman and the woman of leisure If there are such any more-declare 1t restful to the nerves. Anyway, it is essential and must be attended to.
 The novel bag shown in the picture is merely tube-shaped affair covered with ribbon, lace and d fancy millinery hraid-a companion piece to the frilly midsummer hat that inspired it. It is capaeious and very chic-designed for the woman who is able to indulge in little fancies and not recommended for

Embroidery Now the Thino.

That beaded trimming is rapidly giv ing way to embroidery seems to be fashion tendency beyond dispute. It is said that one reason why the metal lie bead effect became so popular in Paris and later in America q season or so ago was because it was possible to make use of metal filings and scrapings from munitions works for much of this trimming But for some reason very little metal trimming is coming into this country now and beads are scarce. Embroidery is entirely within the bounds of things available. Hence the new dresses will show embroidery rather than beads. IL has been said that there is an end to so-ealled Oriental and ecclesiastical embroider- ies. that is, bright colors have been oyerdone, and most of the smart dresses showing embroidery will be worked in threads of the same color or in some simple one-tone contrast.

anyone else There are plenty of pretty bags that are more simply made of materials that are seasonable all the year round This particular bag suggests ways of using materials one may have on hand-for millinery is lften discarded before it shows signs of wear
 It does not make much difference what hats and bags are made of so long as they are pretty and eleverly made. What is called the calico vogue" has introduced calico, gingham, cotton crepe, percale and other eottons into the making of extra hats for mid summer. They might all be chased as gareen hats-but, like sport hats. they go everywhere.
 And everywhere is just the place to find knitting bags-anyone who can use needle can own one of these matched sets. Silk cords and tassels. narrow silk fringes and narrow lin- gerie laees.the old-fashioned rie-rac braid and hand-eroeheted edges are all appropriately used with these smart. inexpensive, wartime novelties.

large producing fowl in Souther- ly sections where the more heavily feathered Brahma does not stand the summer well.
 Among the popular breeds of the general-purpose class there are also differences in type. adapting breeds to different uses. The Plymouth Rock ss generally regarded as the type meet ing the widest range of requirements in the general-purpose class.
 The Wyandotte is a little smaller and earlier maturing, but still very well meated and easy to fatten.
 The Rhode Island Red has nearly the same standards of weight as the Wyandotte. but is q more active bird, not putting on fat so readily. Conse- quently it approaches the laying type and is popular with those who want eggs and meat but want eggs most.
 The Orpington is at the other ex- treme in the general-purpose class be- ing a heavier, meatier fowl than the Plymouth Rock.
 Such a list of breeds affords so wide range of choice that poultry keep CTS can always select standard breed better adapted to their locality and their purpose than any nonstandard stock they can procure and having the further advantage of producing true to type.

The slip-over blouse and others that have the appearance of slip-overs but fasten on the shoulder, have been steadily increasing in popularity and their chances for becoming a feature in fall styles are excellent. So far the Slip-overs have been developed in georgette crepe almost to the eXelu- sion of other materials, but it k eer- tain that they will be made in more substantial silks for fall. Some of them have a short peplum and are belted down with narrow belts of silk or patent leather, but these are few in comparison with the number that are made regulation blouse length that iS, disappearing under the skirt at the waistline.
 For georgette slip-overs. small pat terms in brilliant bead embroidery are So effective that nothing has supplant- ed them for decorative purposes. Bright colors, as emerald green. blue, gold and rose, are chosen for many of the hlouses with peplumS. They hang fairly straight and are belted in. Their lines and beadwerk are reminiscent of American Indian art and they continue to he at once simple and very dressy. With blouse of this kind and a silk or satin skirt, one may dress up to the requirements of almost any wartime function
 The blouse shown in the picture is one of those that has the appearance of Slip-over, but open on one shoul- der to allow it to slip over the head Ii hardly needs description. since it is plain, except for three single box plaits in the georgette at the front and back. Between the plaits at the front there are two conventional flow er motifs outlined in colored silks Four small eroeheted buttons are set along the shoulders.

THOSE WHO CANNOT GO
By EDWARD A. c. HERsdANN
of the VieiIantes.


 Are you sorry? or are you glad? Perhaps you would go if you could. but you must stay at home.
 You cannot be hero at the battle front but you can live heroieally wher= ever you are.
 It takes five men at home to keep one man in the trenches.
 YOU belong to one of those groups of five men.
 The five men at home must stand to- gether and do the things that count most for one man at the front. For any one man to fail is to play false to the cause for which we work and they fight
 You cannot fight, but you can work and pray: you can love and serve; you can save carefully and give sacri- ficially. Above all else you ought to worship in times of war.
 We believe our cause is righteous. Our faith is justified. Our human in- stinets are not lying to ns.
 The lofty ideals for which our brave boys are fighting are the ideals Tor which pure Christianity has stood for I .9oo years. When the church has been blind to the vision of the ideals she has grown weak and un- worthy of the great Leader. We stand with him today for the sanctity of womanhood and the protection of ehil- dren: for justice and mercy, truth and righteousness for industrial, political and social democracy; for internation- al law and universal brotherhood; for the establishment of the kingdom of God on earth.
 These are the great ideals which carry with them freedom, peace and happiness for all the future.
 After all. true religion is the real conservator of civilization and the ul- innate unfier of humanity. The fu- tu-e of democracy and civilization is bound up with Christianity.

DRY LITTER FOR SCRATCHING

 Straw and similar material gathers moisture and when the litter becomes damp enough to be limp it is prac- tically useless for fowls to scratch in for their grain feed, Scratching litter in the poultry house is essential, but it should be cleaned out and renewed frequently.

UTILITY OF VARIOUS BREEDS
Wyandotte Is Early Maturing, and Be- ing We'll Meated Is Not Diff
 cult to Fatten.

Prepared hy the United States Depart
 ment of Agriculture)
 The common classification of breeds according to their places in the gen eral scheme of poultry production di Vides them into three principal classes, laying breeds. meat breeds and geuer- al-purpose breeds-that is, breeds that are not as ready and persistent egg producers as the laying breeds, and not as meaty and as easy to fatten as the meat breeds. vet combine in one individual fowl very good laying capacity with very good table quality.
 The Leghorn, Mino~a, Andalusian, Ancona and Campine are well-known breeds of the laying el;sss the Brahma. Dorking and Cornish of the meat class; the Plymouth Rock, Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red and Orpington of the general-purpose class.
 The breeds mentioned as of the lay ing class, with the exception of the Minorca. are relatively small, very energetic and lively, mature early. and are easily kept in good laying condi- ton. The Minorca is of larger size and modified somewhat in the other particulars mentioned vet has more the character of the laying class than G any other.
 In the meat breeds, there is not the same uniformity of type that is found in the laying breeds The three men, toned differ decidedly. The Brahma is most popular because it is at the same time the largest and the most rugged in constitution. The Dorking excels in quality of meat, but is gen erally considered somewhat lacking in hardness. The Cornish is rather hard-meated, but, being very short feathered, has its special place as d
