There is a choice this season in the
line Of the silhouette. We may dis
avow curves entirely and wear a coat
or dress that is straight from neck to
hem, or go to the other extreme and
choose a bodice or coat that Is fitted
In to the figure closely, OF stop any,
where between these. Half way be-
tween seems to be the happy medium
that is most generally becoming. But
the possessor of a very good figure
may go even farther than the semift-
ted coat with fine effect as is attested
by the coat suit which reflects this
place of the style as shown In the pic
ture above.
This braid and button trimmed suit
of serge sets snugly to the body above
the waist where the lines of the coat
flow out into ripples at the back and
sides, but are almost straight at the
front. Parallel rows of narrow silk
braid, stitched across the sides and
back of the coat, end in a row of small
bone buttons at each side. This is a
novel placing of braid which is char

profits are clear.
About the gayest and liveliest crowd
at these fairs or "festas'' is in that
portion of the floor set aside for those
who like to dance. This is rallied or
roped off from the rest of the room
and a little booth for selling tickets
placed at the entrance. Little girls
also peddle tickets among the men who
dance. "Ten cents each and three for
a quarter" brings many a dime and
dollar home to the treasury Of the
chapter. OF course the promoters
must see to 1t that good music is pro-
vided. War is no reason why the
young people should not indulge them
selves in innocent pleasures, and they
are glad enough to benefit the Red
Cross while they enjoy themselves.

TRIBUTE TO PHIL KEARNY
nous Soldier Who Gave His Life
for His Country.

It was after the review that I made
the personal acquaintance of the Off
GERS with whom I was to have the good
fortune to fight for a cause which was
already dear to me. All made me cor
daily welcome, but 1t was with Kearny
that 1 found myself most at home. He
1t was who could speak to me of the
French army in Algeria in 1910 and of
the memories left by my family In that
country. He did so in terms which
deeply touched the heart of the exile,
the son of the Due d'Orleans. Kearny
had participated in n of those cam
paigns on African ground which
brought out strongly the merits of the
French soldier. He had also associated
himself with the triumphs of France
in the Italian campaign of 1859.
His abrupt speech and imperious
ann denoted a proud disposition,
and a character incapable of 1attery
or of discrimination. But though at first
his ann was not always fitted to
attract, n soon learned to appreciate
the noble qualities Of his heart, the
frmness Of his will, the accuracy Of
his Judgment, the truthfulness and
grandeur Of his soul.
If he did not spare his soldiers at
the decisive moment, he spared himself
still less, and by his example obtained
from his followers truly heroic efforts.

Century.

IN LIBERTY'S NAME
Memorial Day Finds the Nation
Battling for Freedom of the
Whole World.
N K EMORLAL DAY was born of a

N n EMORIAL DAY was born of a
wi war fought that this nation, IN
{. der God, should have a new
birth of freedom, and that government
of the people, for the people and by
the people shall not perish from the
earth"
A half a century and more has
passed since that immortal utterance.
Now the nation Is again In arms, to
fight that "the world may be made
safe for democracy"
Then, the young republic, struggling
upward toward its vision of freedom,
learned through the bitter travail of
Civil war that the nation could not
exist half slave and half free. The
vision has broadened with the wild
ening years. Then it was for the free
dom of a race the nation fought. Now
the sword is drawn for the imperiled
liberty of the world.
The natal day of our independence
we have been wont to celebrate with
loud acclaim and Wanting pride. Me
mortal day ever has been our time for
solemn contemplation. Another Me-
mortal day is at hand, and as America
lays its flowers on the graves of its
soldier dead, it hears again that re-
vered voice from the slopes of Get
tysburg bidding us to be not unmind-
full that at is rather for us to be here
dedicated to the great task remaining
before us, that from these honored
dead we take increased devotion to
hat cause for which they gave the
last full measure of devotion; that we
here highly resolve that these dead
shall not have died In vain"
A beautiful, a poetic symbolism
Memorial day had come to be to us:
The people who walk with slow steps
In the quiet cemeteries, the children
In their white dresses who with loving
hands place wreaths "alfke for the
friend and the foe" the venerable men
who are the links that bind US to an
age long gone, and, as we believed, for
ever gone, when nation warred with
nation and blood lust grew in hearts
that had thrilled at the sight of the
same flag.
And now with what a new and sud
den significance has Memorial day been
vested. With what different thought
viii they 60 lovingly laden with flow
ers." How much more ~reverentfy
than in those conventional days that
already seem so far away will the 1T
tie flags be planted on each patriot
mound. And who is there, when taps,
clear and soft as a benediction, Is
sounded for those who "dream Of bat
tlefelds no more" will not remember
that ON a neighboring hill On the NOR
row from that same silvery bugle will
leap the reveille for another genera
ton Of freedoms soldiers7
If solemn memories of the past and
earnest thought for the future bring
that new birth Of freedom, who shall
say that those have died In vain for
whom flowers will be spread in far
Memorial days to come?

"What can we dol" is likely to be
changed to "What can't We do?' in the
light Of responses women have made to
the challenge of circumstances. They
have excursiOned into many new fields
of labor since the beginning of the
a Only the heaviest physical labor
where 1t is a mere matter of muscu-
lar strength unequal to that of men
bars them from measuring their efforts
along with the other half of humanity.
Just how much of this new industrial
territory they will hold, now that they
have occupied 1t, remains to be seen.
It is reasonable to believe that there
are many places they will continue to
hold.
In the meantime there are many good
old-fashioned obligations they must go
on fulfilling. All the things they have
been doing they must go on with. Sox
and sweaters and all other knitted
things must be mainly supplied by
them; clothing and food prepared for
their own families and others who need
them. Besides the wholesome and
hourly duties they undertake to raise
money for all sorts of charitable work.
For the Red Cross they are having
much success along with considerable
merriment by getting up "hestas" or
county fairs-held indoors. All they
need to start with is a large room
with a fairly good floor. This they

fruits, preserves, ETC., contributed by

acteristic of this season. Correspond
ing rows of braid, ending in buttons
are placed on the sleeves. There is a
shawl collar and an o%ver-collar of
washable white satin.
In order to preserve the snug lines
about the waist this coat is fastened
with three buttons at the front There
are several ways Of arriving at this
closely fitted effect by means of In
genious cutting. They are novel but
not more successful than the simple
and direct methods shown in the pic
ture.
The style of the skirt in this suit
may be taken as a criterion for the
season. 1t Is a straight-line model,
fitted about the hips, with waistline
very slightly raised and it could hardly
be simpler. These are the ideals that
all skirt makers seem to have In mind
just now.

FLOUR PRICES FIXED
Government Schedule. Prepared For
Every Mill in country-set Limits
on Profits of Jobbers and RetaiIsrs-
Nearly 5000 Price Schedules. :.

Washington, July 24-The food ad-
ministration expects this week to have
in the hands of every mill in the coun-
try a schedule OF prices at which flour
and feeds from the 1918 wheat crop
may be sold. This, it is believed, will
guard the public against extortionate
profits.
Nearly 5000 price schedules have
been delivered. The prices are for car
load lots, sold at the mill, but it is
believed that competition in many in
stances will lower these prices.
1t Is necessary to add to the an
nounced prices the cost Of packages
This averages SIS cents a barrel, when
flour is shipped in small packages,
such as two pound cotton sacks.
1t is also necessary to add the freight
from the milling point. For sales Of
less than carload lots, so cents a barrel
on>flour may be added and where sold
by millers to individual consumers,
$1.20 barrel.
The jobber may sell at not more than
20 to SO cents over the delivered cost
to him, and the retailer at no more
than $40 over the price he pays. Each
invoice from the mill will contain list
OF food administration prices so the
buyers may readily make comparisons.
Prices to the retailer from the mill at
principal points, include: Boston,
