three-inch hem. These give it little
weight and flare at the bottom where
it is precisely even in length and
reaches to the knees.
1t is the blouse that reveals the
cleverness of its designer. It's body
hangs from a very short yoke, gath
cred quite full over the shoulders.
The body Of the blouse is shocked in
three rows of shocking where it joins
the shirred yoke. It is usual this sea-
son to use one or more cOlOred silks
in doing the shocking on white frocks
and these little bits of color are very
childish and pretty on dresses for all
little girls. There are two pockets at
the bottom of the blouse with smock-
ing across the top and buttons that re-
peat the color used in the shocking.
They are set on purely as a finish for
the blouse fastens with snap fasteners.
The collar which is of wash satin Is
like them In color and the sleeves are
plain-three-quarter length.

SCOUTS KEEN ON w. S. S. SALES.

Probably no service that the men,
bers of the Boy Scouts of America
have been called upon to render has
created so much genuine enthusiasm
throughout the length and breadth OF
the land as the War Savings stamp
campaign, and certainly no other serv-
ice can be more helpful to the govern
ment or beneficial to the boys, indivldu-
ally or as troop members.
Each scout Is provided by the gov
eminent with franked red postcards
on which to note the sales of stamps,
and the money is collected by postmen
and rural carriers. This work is in
accordance with the plan definitely
outlined in the special manual for the
Boy Scouts Of America issued by the
treasury departments national war
savings committee.
The work can be carried on without
In any way interfering with school
work, other wartime activities, or the
regular scouting program.
All awards for this service will be
based upon the red post card returns
only. Any scout who takes orders
from % people will get an Achieve
ment" button. When he has sold $3.50
In stamps the government will send
him an "Ace" medal, and a bronze
palm will be added for each extra $500.
