Home and School League Mem
bcrs Dissatisfied With Failure

OF schools, u was learned today from
Secretary Dick that the survey had
not been made.
The committee chosen TO direct the
survey is composed Of former Judge
Dinner Beeber chairman and the heads
of all the Board Of Education committees
Failure to take advantage of the per-
mission of the board to make n com
plete survey and obtain out -of-town al.
ucators to assist in the investigation ha 8
created dissatisfaction among tho rnen,.
bers of the Home and School League.
"It has been pushed on from time TO
time. like every other thing" said Mrs
Edwin G. Grice, former president of the
league.
"Thc action of the Board OF Edueo-
tion il not right. and suggcsts Il system
of autocracy rather than democracy"

their clothes because they choose to
keep the women who make them in
decent living circumstances; and there
are others who refuse to keep their
personal maids IL they are needed by
the government for practical work.
Therefore, the rich women are
dressing themselves when necessity
demands, and above all, they must
dress quickly,-or they will not be able
to fill the sphere of activities for
which they have volunteered.
The Overcoat Tunic Is Simple.
Thru this tendency to save time
in dressing, there has come about a
variety of most admirable garments
that can be adjusted with ease and
coat tunic, and it is in keeping with
the general tendency toward longer
coats, blouses and waistcoats.
The sketch shows one caught on the
streets of Paris. It is of gray jersey
cloth. The tunic, from hips to hem, is
laid in inch wide tucks. 1t fastens
from neck to hem with large gray
bone buttons. 1t is put on exactly as a
man slips on his oyercoat. The short,
narr~w skirt beneath has it's own
sleeveless bodice attached to 1t at the
waist, and to save better material, the
bodice and top part of the skirt are
made of white China silk. The sleeves
are like those of an overcoat, loose
and shapeless.
The sailor hat worn with this cos
tune has its immense blu bow tied
in the back, far down on the 'brim. in
a way that has not yet been widely
adopted in America

The bulk of our women have always
known the necessity for harness-like
clothes that quickly fall into place and
do not depend upon stray pins for
their adjustment; but only the bulk
of women knew this necessity and
practiced the art of dressing with a
maximum result thru a minimum eff
fort.
These were the wage earners. They
were the women who worked in shops
or Institutions, and the housekeepers
who took their own work as seriously
as though they were receiving q pay
envelope at the end of the week.
After these two classes there was
the great mass of women who knew
nothing whatever of economy of time.
There were maids to do all the work
of fastening and finishing; in the alb
sence of maids and money, there was
the pin cushion or the occasional hook
and eye, the struggle continuing for an
hour or more, in order to put ones
self into social harness. as it were, and
sally forth to meet.one's friends.
Time Too Short for Tedious Dressing.
The worker today has become the
best symbol of American womanhood.
She may earn wages to support her
self; she may be a volunteer wage
Garner to release man for the front;
she may be a volunteer worker with
out wages, in order that her money

she may be giving her time to hospi-

in the morning and returns at and
