For the Golf Game.

The golf costume shown on this page is a
pertinent example of the type of thing this
spring gives approval to. The jacket, a black
and white check affair, is fitted loosely belted
patch-pocketed and sleeveless. The blouse is
quite simple tailored and buttoned. The skirt
is rather short narrow and white. The hat
is high-crowned, broad brimmed and serves as
an excellent sunshade.
In its ensemble the costume carries all the
pertinent points of the new fashions.
The little gingham dress is late spring
and early summer model that should win ap-
proval This particular dress is done in a
large blue and white gingham check with the
semi-wide skirt and the pants-skirt top that

years, presents many possibilities Of changes
in sport costumes The one specific proba-
bility which stands out most prominently is
the departure we inaugrated last year with
the sleeveless jacket
good style will always prolong itself,
and the sleeveless jacket was both good style
and comfort. Last year we did the jacket
with all the lines of the modes, but eliminated
the sleeves, utilizing the sleeves of the blouse
as protection for the arms.
The choice Of materials for the Jacket last
year fell to cheviots in solid shades. This year
the materials will still populary fall to chev.

Sweaters will have lost great many fol-
lowers. There is hardly definable reason for
this detection from one of the most comfort
able garments in womans wardrobe. The
sweater was really never accorded the recep-
ton in France that it received in this country.
We, however, have a leaning toward what is
smart rather than that which is chic, and in
this we have ever differed from the women of
France We liked our sweaters and stuck to
them. If we are faltering, it will be lack of
desire rather than lack of taste.

The Short Skirt.

Sport skirts will retain their shortness of
the past several seasons in direct contrast to
the skirts worn off the field. In complete ac
cord, however, with the skirts of the evening
and afternoon wear away from the course,
sport skirts will be narrow. The box pleat of
the white skirt of last year is eliminated for
smart wear.
Blouses will have lost the frills of a pre-
vious season and will confne themselves to
smart, severe tailored effects and, singularly
enough, coors will be missing. White will

Sport Standards.

We have at last reached the stage in this
country when each item of field and country
wear has its significance and its standard of
fashion to which the individual may measure
up. Whether it is bathing or golf, tennis or
horseback riding motoring or fishing, walking
or fencing, Dame Fashion has obtruded her
presence and says that one may wear that but
not the other, and defiance merely sets the
wearcr at odds with her sisters.

While the affair this evening has
been termed patriotic rally" it is
not so much a rally as that word is
ordinarily understood, as it is an old
fashioned showdown. The speakers
are going to tell Harrisburg some
facts about the war that they not

pected.

Judge George Kunkel will pre-

stripped of useless verbiage and

truth about the war.
That Americans have not grasped
the need of following out the pleas
for economy and conservation nor
recognized the necessity of putting
their shoulders to the wheel will be
told in plain words. There will be
a plain reason given for "wheatless"

result if millions Of Pennsylvanians
persist in violating the order.

these stamps.or pledge themselves TO
purchase 5000 worth OF stamps dur
ing this campaign, or pledge them
selves to purchase that amount some

ellis OF Defense and community coun-
ellis throughout the county.
