The necessity of using wool for the
garments and blankets of the army
has led many patriotic women to buy
more silk this winter than usual. Even
cotton has been in demand for the SOL
diers and in consequence this is essen
TALLY a season Of silk for the women.
OF course the closing of the war will
make some difference in the demand
for these things but still the soldiers
who remain in France and the camps
in this country will have to have warm
clothing. However. Milady may wear
wooden gowns with a much clearer
conscience than earlier in the season.

THERE'S A GIRL IN OUR TOWN
Whose betrothed has sailed for
France, but before leaving Camp Fun
ston he left some Of his dress-up
clothes in safe keeping with her. No
need in France for leather leggins and
tailor made clothes when man is en-
gagged to home town girl. Perhaps
his parents didn't know of these
honest-to- goodness-dress-u clothes
anyway they were left with some one
who thoroly approved of them. Last
evening the girl decided to step out
luck she would have as young lieu
tenant Consequently she got one of
her soldier friends to make an en-
gagement for a ride with two OF the
pretty girls of the town, put on her
uniform and drove her. car. What
young lieutenant with tailor made
clothes, large touring car and big
box of candy couldn't take the girls
riding even on such a disagreeable
night as last evening? But even then
who can get terribly enthusiastic over
a lieutenant with a soprano voice?
