WashingtOn.-The knowledge of for

Color News and Notes.

II you would be considered modish,

advises a fashion authority. Not to
the point of fadedness, however; far
from it Simply soften them into be-
wilderingly beautiful shades. Soft
gray-blue lavenders, ashes of roses,
that old-time favorite, wistaria, and
silver grays and ltchen grays; Of these
are the color cards of fashion. If you
desire a spice, add a dash of rosy or
ange or peacock blue, but the smart
est costumes are usually of one
tone, with the exception perhaps Of the
lining, which may be as gorgeous as you
please. Wool embroideries and stitch.
ings are used with effect either in the
same shade as the costume or in con.

and East Indian influence is plainly
felt In the newest designs and color.

PLEA FOR MORE FUN.

Young life demands definite worB
and definite play. 1t also demands In
it's healthier manifestations a certain
period Of rest. Much of the delin-
due to the habit of roaming the streets
at all hours of the night. 1t is due
to a restlessness engendered partly in
deed by lack of parents care, but also
to d defiance of orderly life that takes
the place with a section of young peo-
pie of independence. A more COM
plete understanding of life, at it's best
gotten by asSociating with those who
are brOad-minded and appreciative of
the need for recreation and rest, is
what will prevent delinquency. "Big
brother" movements have their appeal
and place. The only trouble here being
it's probable fathering by overzealOus
dogmatists In religion. No boy wants
to be preached at. He wants to be
amused, by being with worthwhile
comrades. A "big brother" who plays
comrade and not preacher is a val
liable asset Loneliness Of soul is
keenly felt by many boy, himself un-
conscious that he Is so suffering says
Milwaukee News. 1t is when he is
lapely that he finds occupation with
gang" The natural social instinct
Is merely perverted.

Our soldiers will not have to worry
about warm legs this winter if they
will but wear the leg long" that has
been devised by Miss Emma FrOhman,
sister Of the late Charles Frohman,
for their comfort. The new garment
fits snugly around the tops of the sol
dier's puttees or canvas leggins and
extends upwards to be drawn tight
around the waist. 1t is knitted of
very heavy wool and is sure to keep
cold away from the wearer's legs.
This photo shows Miss Frohman
putting her ''Ieg longs" on one of the
soldiers. He is also wearing knit
ted sweater so there is very little
chance of his ever getting cold. Guam
titles OF the new garments will be
made at the new workrOom of the Ma

LOW SPIRIT IN GERMANY
Prisoners Assert Public Is Discouraged and Country Is Hard Pressed for Man Power-MoraIe Weak.

With the American Army on the Larraine Front, Sept. IS, (By the As sociated Press.) Hive prisoners be- longing to the Fourteenth storm bat talion, were captured by the Ameri- cans northeast of Wool today. All agreed that even these crack troops are discouraged by the Franco-Ameri- can successes. They declared Ger many is hard pressed for men, and that the low morale of the German army was the reason that the resist ance encountered by the Americans was not stronger.
 One of the prisoners, a socialist, said the civilians in Germany are dis couraged and look upon the struggle as a capitalistic effort.
 He said the German troops esti- mated the Americans equal to the Germans as they were in 1914.
