late leather for this purpose. Through
the schools a great many gloves have
been gathered, the pupils getting con-
tributons at home that are brought to
the teachers and sent by them to the
collector. Stores will sometimes mako
contributions Of old styles and clean

called for by their owners. The col

The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1918-09-06

The Stage Woman's War Relief Is
\ large charity with many branches.
Among its activities Is committee
which has charge Of the making Of
windproof vests for aviators and 9TH
er fighting men who find 1t difficult
to dress so as to keep warm. These
vests are made Of old gloves and pieces
Of leather and are warmer than
sweaters. 1t is said they are a great
protection against ~beasties" that are
sure to assault the soldier. Gusts Of
wind cannot get by them.
Everyone who has old kid gloves to
spare should contribute them to the
army or learn how to make the vests.
The Stage Woman's War Relief has a
large light loft, installed with electric
sewing machines. where the vests are
made. Many Of the gloves are sent
In already cleaned-and this Is a great
help-others are sent to the cleaner
Then they are cut to form fiat pieces
of leather. These are matched up for
size and color. After they have been
pressed out they are basted together
and stitched on paper patterns.
The reverse side Of the vest is made
OF canton flannel or other cloth, pro-
yided with practical and roomy
pocket and then the vest is neatly
bound with braid. Leather book COW
ers and leather postcards can be used
In these vests, as we'll as gloves. and
some interesting-not to say amusing
vests result from the use Of these.
Any sort of disable leather may be
Communicated for this purpose-pil-
low tops, table covers and book covers.
The leather must be firm and whole,
and contributions are doubly welcome
when they come in clean.
1t Is easy to understand that better
vests can be made where large con-
tributions of leather are received and
the pieces can be matched up, than
otherwise. Also then the women making
them become expert. Anyone wishing

Vegetables, because Of their bulk,

Vegetables are rich in mineral salts

Testing PIeurlsy With Coins.

A novel method Of diagnosing pleu-
risy Is described by P. Lereboullet in
the Paris Medical Journal. The ex-
aminer applies his ear to the patients
chest, closing his other ear, while coins
are clinked at the patients back. The
sound Of the coins coming through a
healthy, normally aerated lung seems
distant and dull, while through an af-
fected lung, through solid or homo-
geneous tissue a clear, silyery metal
lie ring Is heard.

Evening Gowns Passe.

Evening gowns are now almost Z
lost art. Few women are buying them.
In their place we find afternoon frocks
of lace or net or point d'esprit, COM
bined with satin. Above all, however,
come the pretty soft chiffons in neu-
trail shades-beige, navy, black, mauve
and gray. These clinging chiffons
round out afternoon and evening occa-
sions. For the older woman they are
the type of frock par excellence.
