In spite of the extremely hot wealth CT of the past week the women have kept themselves on a war basis and have not let their interest flag in the current food problems can- ming and the sugar situation. The h. formation Bureau-Noble 936-has been kept busy every morning in an- swering the vital food questions Of the day.
 The Canning Quota Campaign has been splendidly answered by the women of the city and 1t only re- mains for each one of those who showed their patriotic interest in signing the cards to interest one of their neighbors and persuade them to telephone their probable quantity of seasonal canning to Mrs. Frank H. Riley, the chairman of the Quota Committee, or to Mrs. c. B. Dore- mus, the vice chairman of the City Home Economies Committee or to Miss Weed, the Home Demonstration Agent. (Noble 936 reaches Miss Weed.) Our aim is to have one thou sand women in The Connecticut Can ming Corps which will boost our re- turn away over the top but more than that 1t will mean that Bridgeport has woman power that is most versatile in their war efforts. It will prove that they can work strenuously in the Red Cross, perhaps do Minute Women duty, or give splendid SUD- port to Liberty Loans, or War Sav- ings Stamp activities. They are typi- cally American women! Let us not stop until one thousand or us nave signified our intention to support the firing line by doing our mightiest to transfer our gardens from the ground to patriotic place under glass, and thereby liberate the tin canned gar dens to the service of those wondrous lads of our Overseas!
 The totals may be interesting so | that you can see who some of those are among us who have caught the vision. It is with great regret that the name of everyone of the Quota signers cannot be printed but it must be remembered that if everyone did not sign for even one hundred quarts they were signing for all that their time and garden circumstances would allow which is all that can be asked of any patriotic American.
 l Campaign to date are as follows: | Number of quarts promised to date approximately 65,000.
 Number of women enrolled 653.
 Enrolled for less than 30 qts-30; for less than 40 qts.-36; for less than 50 qts.-30; for less than 60 qts.-16; for less than 70 qts.-130; for less than 80 qts.-91; for less than 90 qts.-63; for less than 100 qts.-10; for 100 qts.-133; for 125 qts.-12; for 40 qts.-4; for 150 ats I-52, and for 200 qts.-23.
 Those enrolled for two hundred and fifty quarts are as follows: Mrs. Julin Speer, Mrs. P. B. Doremus, Mrs. J A. Hurley, Jr., Mrs. J. c. Standley Mrs. F. l.. Schubert

RACE IS NOT
 ENDANGERED No Cause for Worry in Woman's Present
 Style of Dress

In an article in American Medicine upon "The Psychology and Genesis Of Female Clothes" physician, Dr. Tal- mev. expresses the fear that the race is endangered by the tendency of wo- men at the present time to lay aside frills and adopt utility clothing.
 "No man who has observed the change in women's dress" says Dr. Talmey, "durfng the last year can es- cape the conviction that we are on the verge of a new era in which the visual sense is threatened. as the dominant source of sexual stimulation, and Is about in it's turn to give way to an- other sense. What sense will it be this time? If 1t is to be the sense of taste, will woman devote herself to the fabrication of sweets * If the sense of hearing, will she cultivate her neglected musical talents? As in the case of man in the romantic period when mans dress, with it's frills and silks and laces, were designed as a lure to the feminine eye, woman's dress is un- dergoing a change, due to altered conditions in life. Dress as woman's special province is falling into disuse.' ''
 Dr. Talmey forgets that women will not wear overalls save as a fatigue uniform. There will be ample time for dress and the exercise of it's fas- cination in other than working hours A visit to Japan, where women work | frequently in garments much like the overalls of the woman munition fac | tory hand or the farmerette, but don | the kimono when not employed in oc- equations demanding utility clothes surely would convince our alarmed American scientist that women need not abandon their pleasing exercise of the sway of dress because of their engagement in occupations in which | trousers.are more suitable than skirts. Very probably there would be | more bachelors and old maids, with 1 obviously disastrous results,' if Amer | ican women should adopt the plain sober garb of men and the ways and habits of men to such an extent that | in time they would lose to a degree the distinguishing characteristics of their sex. The American is pre- eminently a male of the species where marrying mood is one of sentiment, that sentiment based greatly upon aesthetic appreciation, but the effect of trousers might not be sufficiently grave to kill the race. The Burma girl-'the heater, sweater maiden in a cleaner, green land''-was not less attractive to Tommy Atkins because she wore trousers.

thought of water on the delicate skin Of the face Is obnoxious. But don't mean water merely as a face wash. There is no other cosmetic which has so many uses-none so pure-none that will give better results if par taken of regularly and unfailingly. For water is the one cosmetic which may be used externally and internal ly, and should, indeed, be used both ways to give the best effects.
 Bathing Internally.
 For, after all, beauty of complex ion depends entirely on the condition of the body. External remedies can be only superficial or temporary at best. The bodily health must be right if you desire permanently healthy skin. And health means first of all, absolute cleanliness.
 Now, the interior of the body must be kept clean as well as the outer skin, and in order to cleanse it it is absolutely necessary to drink water copiously. Two quarts of water per day is needed by most persons in or der to keep the body properly cleans ed, and yet how many women drink as much each day? And still they ex- pect their complexious to be clean and clear.
 It is easy to acquire the habit of drinking water between meals if you will finish your meal with some small tidbit that will stimulate thirst after ward. Extreme sweets, like milk chocolate or little candy at the end of meal, will sometimes stimulate

thirst. Salted foods at meals will provoke thirst.
 Once you get into the habit of; drinking water between meals you will be astonished to find how much: it helps to clear the complexion ant to give sparkle to the eyes. A lit. tie water at meals isn't harmful, but food shouldn't be washed down with water, nor should you attempt to drink too much of it at mealtime.
 Some Fine Hints.
 Another beautifying water treat ment is the purest of natures cleans cleanses, but also the saline content of the water acts as a tonic and stimulant to the skin. For the hab- ttually yellow or colorless skin the salt water bath is one of the finest reme- dies. If you can't get the sea bath ''au naturel," take it at home by put ting cupful of salt in the bath.
 For your face, the pure. sweet water treatment helps considerably .n cleansing and in stimulating circula- ton so that the skin takes on a. healthy color. Merely washing the face with cold water several times a day will not of course help much, for it will only remove surface dirt. But the occasional steaming of the face with water, then sprinkling on cold water with gentle pats will act both as a cleanser and beautifer.
 Of course, for a thorough cleansing of the skin, especially after a train trip, or after traversing the dusty streets, a cream of some kind is the most thorough cleanser, for N 1ubri- cates the skin, and thus you can gent ly force out all the dust and dirt by delicate massage and manipulation
 If you are in a. section where the water is naturally hard, soften it by adding 8 little boric before using. This is harmless and will make it possible for you to use even hard water without making the skin rough. If you can get 1t, rain water is the best of waters for facial cleans ing.

Personal Mention

Miss Alice Judson presided yester- day afternoon at the regular meeting of the Stratford Women's Suffrage Association which was held at the home of Miss Edith Hastings. Miss Stella Worth Jones, the new Fair field County Organizer, was the guest of honor and she spoke to the mem bers on Suffrage as a War Measure and & Domestic Necessity" She quoted from the Presidents letter to Senator Shields of Tennessee in which he said he considered the passag ge of the Federal Amendment for Wom- an Suffrage" an essential psychologi- cal element in the conduct of the war for democracy" Miss Jones could speak feelingly for the needs of pro- lection for the women and children here at home because of her large experience in Americanization work in Massachusetts.

SOCIAL PRESTIGE The War Seems to Have
 Blown It to Pieces

Social climbers haven't any place to go, nowadays, says famous woman page writer.
 True,
 Society was formerly a swirl, and aspirants for social place would man age first to slip into it's outside eddies and then gyrate gradually toward it's centre,
 But the war has been to "society'' what a charge of dynamite is to a dangerous rock in river, The war has blown social prestige to atoms. It has deepened the channel of the new democracy.
 The best of American society wem- en, like those of England, France and Italy, have abandoned their luxury and their leisure, and are honestly deveting their money and time to liheFty's cause, The worst of them are busily diselaiming their wealth in order to avoid war taxes and eontri- buttons te victory chests and foreign relief. But this brand of modesty means social eblivian.
 The society queen and the social climber were never born to blush un- seen. Social importance is possible only as the public permits it to be. A woman may possess a trunkful of diamonds bus Der gems might as vel be bits of glass-unless other women admire and envy heR
 Fine society is brilliant only as the public has eyes to see. Now that the public absorbed in the war, no- body "nainds" the rich at all and thus the society leader is stripped of her stery.
 The first fruits of democracy are ripening right here at home and the only persons who find them bitter are the wives of men making monstrous piles of money out of the war. They find it very bad manners to make display of wealth in the old way and it is certainly very bad oitl- | zeiship to conceal it. The women who are setting the fashions are the women who are help ing to win the war; A man without country is no more to be pitied than woman without share of war work. A rich and idle beauty ranks 1 second iR her community to the giF

 The regular weekly demonstration was splendidly attended at Sanford House, on Thursday at 3 o'clock, de- spite the heat. The committee was especially fortunate in having Mrs. Gaylord assist in canning some clans which she herself had dug Her recipe for transferring this product over to the hungry winter time is given be- low.
 It was an inspiration to listen to Mrs. W. B. Hohlah tell how she and Mrs. Peter Musante were combining forces and putting away 1000 cans. Mrs. Hohlah said that she did not consider that the days duties were done until they had canned at least 10 quarts of material-a splendid pace for one in these times to establish. Another sugarless marmalade was made which proved even more delicate than the carrot marmalade of last week. These marma1ades should be featured rather than the conserves which require so much sugar, for we are on the same footing now as those long suffering Allies of ours and if 1t Is not their privilege to have sugar in any quantity, we certainly should use those foods which will release as great a quantity of 1t as possible. Try substituting half the sugar in your canning from now on with the white corn syrup. Your fruits will be more delicate and at the same time your syrup will appear to be richer and heavier. Every granule saved means that much transferred to that man of yours overseas.
