house, that the historian of the future
will surely look with extraordinary in
tereSt upon the psychological change
that took place in 100000 COO people
in eight months.
There are changes in nation that
do not create surprise when they are
thrust upon it by an invading army
in war, but the change in America is
one of spirit. There is money apIenty,
men by the millions, industries at full
speed, and YET. with wealth and re
sources, 100000,000 people have turned
a somersault in their attitude toward
material possessions.
Slim Little Clothes
The passion for conservation wiped
out of existence the fashion for flow
ing robes made of plenteous material,
Whenever Il slim silhouette has been
thrust into the fashions, whenever an
extremely short and narrow skirt has
been offered to women, critics galore
have risen in their chickering's and de-
nounced women as immodest, indecent
and vain To the uttermost degree.
There is no such pickering today.
however The critics of women'S
clothes remain silent. A man looks
appraisingly at n woman gowned in
conservation costume and mods his
head In approval. as though she car
ried a flag.
There is no more talk about indie
cency. The talk hinges upon the pa
triotiSm shown in the Slenderness of
silhouette and in the scarcity of ma
terials won. Therefore, fashion and
national approval go hand In hand.
Unless we are mockingly indecent and
there is no chance of that today, there
Is none to rise and call us outrageous

painted women with mere belts held
over their shoulders by slipping bands
of rhinestones, would be frowned down
by men in khaki and by those In ci-
william clothes.
And yet women may go on the
street with skirts so short and narrow
and laced army boots or puttees that
reach well above the calf of the leg,
and not a glance is given them that ex-
presses contempt or disapproval
The new suits in Paris, as well as
those that are launched in America,
show these skirts. Some are so mar
row that they might cause discomfort
If IL were not that their shortness gave
freedom of movement.
Coats are short when they belong
to suits. Army capes ripple down the
figure when warmth is needed.

The Exaggerated Waistcoat.
Capes, and long waistcoats that
