"Now it's shame to abuse nice Mr.. Blank" is

The fact that "Nr Blank is nice that he his

HOW HIGH ARE YOUR sH0ES7
Fall Footwear Likely to Be Not More
Than Eight and one.Half 'n
Inches in Height.

For a year we have been hearing .
lot about the necessity for cutting
down the height of women's shoes. II
has been predicted a dozen times, q
fashion writer states, that there is to
be strict restriction In high shoes for
women, and every time certain shoe
stores have offered any specially priced
shoes they have told us that the reason
they did so was because Of new restrc-
lions as to the height of shoes. They
had to get rid of their old stock. they
told us, because they were no longer
allowed to handle shoes Of that height
Well, perhaps that was the case; but
we still see women going about'swith
shoes Of extreme height, and only oc.
casionally have we seen, so far, shoes
of a moderate height. tA 4
Now the restriction is pretty near to
becoming a fact. Probably we shall
not have any fall shoes more than ak
inches in height. The shoe man tells
us that this is to be measured 'sfrom
the rand at the breast Of the side OF
the heel to the center Of the tops at
the side"-all Of which may be very
helpful If you happen to know the
lingo of shoe dealers.

new EVENING GOWN
First Season in Three That Dis
tinct Change Is Made.
Black Will Have Widest Popularity
Laces With Dots Embroidered,
Choice Above Everything.

The tale Of the spring evening
gown should be an absorbing one, for,
behold, 1t is the first season In three
that evening gowns have undergone
distinct change in style, mode and
vogue, and a. spring season ushers In
new evening gowns for the elect and
even ideas for the evening for those
who sit by the fire, always presuminR
that it Is a fire that necessitates eve.
ming clothes to sit by 1t.
Narrow skirts are sufficiently diff.
f1cult to dance in, but long narrow
skirts are impossible. And, mas
much as we will dance. notes a fash.
ion authority, war or no war, for the
evening we abolish the narrow skirt
in favor Of the wide or draped gar
ment so that we may dance in ease
and comfort.
Some time ago I sounded the slogan
Of the sleeve in evening frocks.
Every indication for the future con.
firms. all that thought at that time
and even accentuates the fashion.
Evening gowns without sleeves are
not.
Every design for the spring win
have the sleeves, some wide and now.
ing, others long and narrow and few
even elbow length, but the sleeves viii
be there beyond the shadow Of o.
doubt.
The war will not necessarily affect
the cut of the front or the back Of the
evening frock. Many Of the spring
offerings will carry the high square
neckline and the v-shaped back, but
just as many will show the gowns
cut extremely low both front and
back and depend upon the effect Of
the sleeves to relieve the formal ~
pect Of the creation.
In material black will have the
widest popularity. It has had its
innings time and again and despite
that this spring will find 1t in great
demand. OF the black laces the sheer
designs will have the preference over
the heavy tracings, while. the laAea
with dots embroidered in great profu-
sion will be the choice above every.
thing. ,.-,
Brocaded chiffons that weres used
last season will be given another trial
combined with laces and charmeuse.
and dresses Of shaded nets will also
be popular. All-chiffon frocks will
not be given much of an opportunity
early in the season, but will be held
over until spring begins to wane into
warmer summer months. ~

Wearers as the Box Coat.

Covert cloth is having great vogue
this spring and top coats in all lengths
and on various lines are made up Of

smart little coats on the lines Of what
were known once as ''box COATS" but
now are termed "chappie coats" They

belted and flare slightly at the lower
part.
Many of the long models Of this ma.
terial are made in cape effect. 9th.
ers are fashioned on long, straight
lines, belted and pocket trimmed,
much on the lines of the coats worn
by Uncle Sans soldiers. There Is q
high rundown collar and deep cuffs.
Four patch pockets with buttOned
flaps trim the coat front, two small
pockets on the bodice and two larger
pockets on the coat skirt. A wide ma

Especial Dispatch 10 The Tribunc)

WASHINGTON, Aug. 6.-German war
prisoners are making excellent prog
ress as farmers at the six war gardens
in operation by the reclamation divi-
sion Of the quartz rmaster corps at
Camps Dcvens, Grant, Sherman, Wads-
worth, Sewer and Jackson, according
to reports received to-day by the War
Department.
These war gardens were opened by
Colonel Fair, chief of the reclamation
division to provide employment for the
enemy sailors, who have been interned
at Forts Mcpherson and Ogethorpc,
Georgia, since the seizure of the Ger
man ships by this government Units
OF 100 prisoners were sent to the six
camps under heavy guard and put at
work cultivating the war gardens Each
camps quota is known as a work ing
corps. After ten hours service each
day in the gardens the prisoners are
detained in specially constructed stock
AIDES and are given no more privileges
than are accorded them at the war
prison barracks in Georgia.
The German sailor farmers include
seamen only, as international law pro
hibits compulsory work by officers and
those IN non commissioned ranks.
All the men employed are credited with
Il certain amount over the cost Of their

Against Great Odds

NEWARK, N. j., Aug. 6-The con-
duet of American troops under fire is
described wildly in letter to his pa
rents by w, Carroll Taylor, a marine,
who is in a hospital in France. Taylor
is twenty-tnrec years old. He writes {:
"Our platoon was stationed on a hill
d half mile from the Marnc. For five
hours we and the rest of the American
troops around US were sub jccted to an
artillery attack which veteran French
fighters said had never before been
equalled in intensity.
ut appeared to us as if the Ger
mans were trying to get our goats.
You can form your own opinion as to
whether the 'Sammics' are so good or
the Germans so poor fighters, because
we not only stopped them, but chased
them back across the river.

Britaiin's Mystery Ships Lure
U-Boats to Sure Destruction

The woman" was decorated with the
Victoria Cross.
The correspondent, says that the first
mention OF a mystery ship was in the
case of the Baralong. which, on Angus
10, 1915, sank U-boat after the
torpedong of the british liner Arabic.
The Baralong case was probably not
the first in which ruse was used. and
since then the Disgusting of armed
vessels as innocent merchantmen for
dealing with submarines has attained
considerable dimensions
In addition to the woman and
baby" case the correspondent men
tions the story Of retired admiral,
serving as captain. who placed a
haystack on board an ancient looking
craft. When the U-boat ordered her
TO surrender the Germans were aston
ished to receive a broadside from the
haystack
On another occasion seaworn
tramp steamer was crossing the North
Sea when submarine ordered the
crew to abandon the ship. SO sure
was the German of his prey that the
bombs with which he intended to sink
the vessel were brought on deck
around the coming tower.
The commander of the tramp steam
CT, by careful manpuvring, brought
the submarine within range of his
concealed armament, SO that it required
only a she'll or two to explode the
bombs and blow the U-boat out of
the water.
New-York tribune., 1918-08-07

LONDON, Aug. 6.-Interesting reve-
lations regarding the work of British
mystery ships which have played ar
important part in i-submarine
warfare are made by the naval cor
respondent of THE Times" They show
how British seamen have met Ger
man craft and cunning with craft and
cunning
Until this week the public mas
known nothing about the mystery
ships, although several officers, nota-
bly, Captain Gordon Campbell, have
been decorated for their service on
these vessels. Details now can be
made public, as the Germans are be-
coming aware, through bitter expert
ence, of the methods used against
them
How "woman and baby accounted
for U-boat is told by the CORE
spondcnt. The submarine ordered g
vessel to surrender and fired few
shells into her. The boats then left
the ship, leaving on board woman
who ran up and down the deck with
baby in her arms as if mad. The
U-boat came alongside the vessel, and
the woman hurled the baby" into the
open hatch. The "baby" exploded and
blew the bottom out of the submarine.
