Mrs. Madden, the matron in charge,
makes a capital house-mother, and
with the assistance of volunteer host
esses. the boys will be well CARED for.
Already some Of them have called it
sshome.u
1t is hoped that a regular jitney SER
vice can be established for the conven-
fence Of the boys. On Wednesday eve
ming of this week, a number of the boy
would have remained at the club over
night, but said they were unable to get
transportation back in the morning.
Come on, you jitney drivers and get
busy.
All who took part in the United Wal
Work Campaign meeting last Monday
evening at the auditorium, including
the Sewells Point Band, were enter
tanned later at the club. Ginger bread
and coffee were dispensed freely, and
our visitors from Cape May went home
with a good taste in their mouths.
Mr.. HI. Fred Smith, the "Y" secre-
tary complimented the people of Wild

BLOUSES FOR ALL
Separate Outside Garment Has
Recognized Advantages.
Walstcoat, cuirass and Ornamental
BIouses Are Among the Styles
for Various Tastes.

There are still women who wear sep
arate skirts and blouses without q pre-
tense that the two belong to each
other.
There are still women who wear o08t
suits with white or colored bloT5es
that end at the waistline and are
Joined to the skirt under a leather belt
or one Of the material.
It may be that this fashion, will
never die out, but the impulse toward
m~edievalism in dress has continually
acted against the division Of the Gos-
tune at the waistline by the joining
together of two colors.
The students of dress and those who
are in the higher strata Of dressmhk-
ing, asserts q correspondent, have Rb-
served this medievalism for the last
three years. They have preached 1t to
women whose eyes did not see it, hut
sometimes the seeds of reform have
fallen on stony ground.
Women of middle age, who bave
gradually developed a thickened waist
line, are the ones who insist most upon
the separate blouse which ends at the
waist, and this is as 1t should not be.
They are the ones who beyond cayil
should cling to medievalism in their
clothes and wear the tunic, the skirt,
the blouse that reaches to the hips
The small waist is taboo, and since
1t Is so, women should accept the fact
that the straight figure needs a straight
line of clothing. They apologize FOR
their inartistic manne of dressing by
saying that a white shirtwaist Is SO
comfortable. But why should its COM
fort be greater when 1t Is cut off at the
waist than when it is allowed to hang
outside the skirt?
If a jury had to decide on this ques-
ton there would be no dissenting
voice. The artists of the world have
always pleaded that thick-waisted
women wear the kind Of clothes that
lengthen the line from the shoulder in
stead of shortening 1t and cutting the
figure In two, as though 1t were a piece
Of broken sculpture that had been
badly put together.

tages of the separate outside bloHse.

their thoughts to wander outside of 0he

with long, tight sleeves and Follower
collars; there are ornamental separate
blouses, for young girls or those who
have slim figures, which are cut in the
shape of a peasants blouse and light
ly girdled at the waist.
