The canteen Dress.

The canteen dress of striped ging-
ham is triumph in design and neat
ness. 1t is worn by all women en-
gagged In canteen work. The dress is
plain, fastening down the front, the
waist and skirt Joined by two-inch
belt. The sleeves have buttons and
button holes almost to the elbow, so
they may be opened and turned back
for work. There are two pockets, one
at the left of the waist and one on the
skirt. The waist is given pleasing
line by Gibson plat on each shout
der, and a two-way collar, which can
be buttoned up close about the neck,
completes the dress.

which govern the seasons clothes; the
skirt which Is tight at the ankles and
gracefully loose over the hips; the

is really change that was foreshad-

from the beginning of last March. No
one should protest at this agreeable
change from the silhouette Of the

with it.
This loosening up of the hips is a
return to the skirt of nearby. season

find that unless you adopt the straight,

will prefer more width at your hips

subtle changes In clothes that has
caused women to stop, think and reno

Chairman Hurley announced to-day
that the Shipping Board was under

branches OF the government. survey
OF the Atlantic, Gulf and Pacific ports
to sec how tho coaling arrangements

three times. according TO existing plans.
Opportunities for taking on fuel oil
also must he enlarged. as 35 per cent
OF the new ships will be oil burners.
Many ships that formerly were bunk

the ocean are beginning the practice
OF taking coal only for the outward
voyage and recoaling here for the
turn. adding TO the demands on port
facilities.
Bunkcring arrangements in the East
will be improved TO the greatest prac-
t!cable extent, but as Eastern ports
already have almost all the business
they can handle. officials believe the
greatest relief TO be afforded will be In

The railroad administration is being
asked to cooperate in the survey Of

supplies may be secured. The Navy
Department is interested, and 1t is pos
