as well as faculties.


Young people having the requisite,
qualifications should heed this urgent!
call Of their country, and apply them
selves diligently, enthusiastically, and
in increasing numbers to the task of
preparing for the highest service of
which they are capable. Wherever
practicable, young men should at the
same time join the students enlisted
reserve and prepare for military SER
vice, in order to be ready for that
call also when it comes
institutions Of higher education
should adjust their courses, so far as
possible, to immediate war needs
and to the demands which must inev-
itably come with the establishment
Of peace and should develop especial
ly those scientific and practical
branches of study which are essential
to the winning of the war, to the
development of our industries and
commerce, and to the accomplish
ment of the tasks of the civic and
political life of the Nation. ..
Educational institutions should
use every effort to make the pppor-
tunities and privileges of training for
public service accessible to all suit
ably prepared men and women Of col
lege age. In the cases Of many
worthy young men and women this
will require some provision for as
sistance in meeting payments for tut
ton and laboratory fees and other
necessary expenses of higher techni--
cal training"

RETURNS TO WORK

Greenwich, Aug. 16-Miss Marguer-
tie Clark, whose moving picture sue
cesses have earned her a wide repu-
tation, was married yesterday to Lieut..
H. Palmerson Williams of New Or
leans at the First Methodist church,
with the Rev. Harvey Bailey officiat-
ing. Lieut.. Williams has known Miss
Clark for several years, and upon her
return from Liberty Loan campaign
ing in New Orleans in July it was re-
ported that they were engaged. The
marriage license stated that they are
both 81 years of age.
The bridal party came to Green
wich by automobile and consisted of
Miss Cora Clark, sister of the bride;
Mr.. and Mrs. Albert Jeckel of Rye
Louis Paine, Mr.. and Mrs. Eugene
harrington, Miss Mary Lane and Mrs
George Oden of New York. Lieut.
Williams obtained the license at 10
o'clock and an hour later the marriage
was performed.
Lieut.. Williams is the son of F. B.
Williams of New Orleans, and was
until his enlistment connected with
his fathers firm, the F. B. Williams
Cypress Lumber Co. He is now at
tached to the Ordnance Department
at Washington.
Mrs. Williams is the daughter of
Mrs. Golden Of Cincinnati, Ohio. Her
stage career, so far as recorded, be-
gan with road companies. Her last
engagement before coming to brighten
the footlights of Manhattan was with
the Milton Aborn Opera Co. in New
ark
When the Aborn company was dis
banded Miss Clark Joined Dan Days
company at the Herald Square theatre
in which she appeared with two other
young women in singing act. Her
co-partners Miss Anna Laughlin and
Miss Flora Parker, have continued on
the Broadway stage. Miss Clark made
her first notable appearance in THE
Wild Rose at the Knickerbocker
theatre and later made great success
in "Mr. Pickwick," upon which
achievement. Everett r. Reynolds
signed her for five years. 1t was then
expected that she would remain on
the legitimate stage.
Her film successes have been fully
as notable and as pleasing to the pub
lie as was her stage work. She is the
favorite of screen fans wherever
movies are shown, and has appeared
in a great variety of pictures with in
variable success.

Many women prefer pajamas to

their advantages over the nightdress
hut ARE 10th to part company with the
dainty and frilly finishings that pa
lamas lack. For their benefit we have
been furnished, by those who make un-
dermuslins their special study, with
variety of sleeping garments of new
sort. These include separate trous-
ers and coats or jackets and one-piece
garments in which trousers are fas-
tened onto bodice. Besides these
there are full-trousered pajamas worn
under short kimono coats and for all
of them crepe de chine has proved as
practical in every way as muslin. 1t Is
easily laundered and as filmy and
dainty as batiste.
The figure at the left. in the picture
above, Is clad in plain pajamas made
Of sateen. They are very like the
garments worn by men and are devel-
oped In several cotton fabrics, percale
and outing flannel among them, and In
crepe de chine. Occasionally print
lowered silk or mems wear silk shirt
,ngs are made in this model-the lat
ter recommended to withstand wear.
The garment at the right is also
classed among pajamas. Just now,
flesh -colored batiste with narrow Val
lace and insertions or fine swiss en-
broideries used for decorations, Is the
favorite cotton fabric for these gar
rlents, but In the picture the choice
seems TO have fallen on striped dimity.

Here is representative display of
summer shoes that have proved popu-
lar with women who give thoughtful
attention to their footwear. Except
for shoes for sport wear they include
styles for any sort of demand. For
the street the choice between high and
low shoes depends upon the weather
and taste of the wearer and there Is
safety in providing oneself with both
kinds. The high boot Mt the left of the
picture In black kid and the oxfords
at the top. also in black kid, may be
had with Cuban heels for those who
prefer them to French heels. But
French heels are not always high and
some women like them on street shoes
At the right of the group is pair of
white glace high boots being among the
STYLES that are favored above all 9TH
ers for smart dressing. Like black
.hoes they z" well with almost any
dress. But they are to be classed
among expensive luxuries for they
must be made of fine quality of kid in
rider to clean successfully-andt they
are always being cleaned.
In the center of the group Is pair
of dressy black colonial pumps with
steel buckles These are dressy enough
for auy sort of wear. but below them Il
more brilliant pair of pumps in patent
leather has buckles in sparkling jet.

Painted Sport Hats.

Painted sport hats are affected by
the younger girls at some of the sea
side and country places. They are
painted with all sorts of designs, hut
perhaps those showing daisies and
pOppies and the other unsophisticated
flowers that have come in for much
appreciation this summer on the part
of fashion. are the smarteSt. Very eff
fective, too. are those painted with
green and blue designs-peacock feath-
ers, for instance, wound around the
crown (in paint, of course). or pine
needles and cones. With some of these
hats there are bags-lnverted hats,
they are, with silk tops and draw
strings. And with some there are
those little straw cases, one-half OF
which slips into the other. decorated
like the hats.

ings us well. There is the fashionable
yellow. Alice blue and r0se pink. They
are in new shapes and have tiny ruff
fled edges. AS though the gamut of
color had been run in the separate
vests to be used with the plain tailored
suit, we are now shown vests of black
satin. In the colored kind bright or
candle is the NEWEST.
The Colorado statesman., 1918-07-27

There is nothing more elegant than
these and they are immensely well
liked for afternoon and evening wear.
There is nothing more durable or
satisfactory than white canvas shoes
for street wear. They are more easily
cleaned than other white shoes and
strong linen canvas will outwear
leather. For midsummer they are the
coolest of shoes and probably the most
economical in the long run.

IN THE HOLY LAND
By F. S. Sullivan

Upon the banks of Euphra-

have rolled across the burning
sand another race of people con.
troll the Holy Land. The Turk
with ornamental dirk, the Turk
with oriental smirk, the Turk
who round the harems lurk, and
cou ] d not be induced to
work, the Turk who murdered
just for fun, and kept the Christ
inns on the run, and took his
orders from the Hun, the Turk
at last is getting his since we
com menced to do the biz. We've
taught the Turk the turkey trot,
we've made the Holy Land so
hot the turban and the fez he
wears are irksome, and he soft
y swears as to the rear b makes
a streak the while the sweat
rolls down his beak. The Turk
will soon be civilized; our argu.
ments are emphasized. with shot
and shell and sword and bombs
and bayonets like we prod the
Hun. And when we drive the
Moslems out, when all their
army in rout are driven back
ward to the sea the Holy Land
will then be free. And may the
good work now begun continue
till the Turk and Hun, and all
their friends beneath the sun
