INDIVIDUALITY is THE KEYNOTE
OF SPRING STYLES

There is dissension in the ranks
OF style this spring-and both sides
seem to be winning" says Mrs. Gross
man, of the Parsons Garment Com
pany. Toledo, Ohio.
She with a soldier sweetheart may
adore, and initiate her Sammy boys
clothes. To her the soldier becomes
the ranking officer for style. And so
she fits herself in military costume
from the hat on her head to her
broad-toed, lowheeled boot.
The trig. mannish, military moders
seem TO stand at attention all the
time. With patch pockets, all round
belts, military straightness and rookie
cOlors. there's many soldier would
strive to capture such models.
And then there are others who per-
ceptibly scorn all military advances.
They seek the slim, slender. silhouette
from the tight narrow shoulder line,
fitted waist and ripple peplum to
yard or yard and half width about
the hem, and on the way down, there
may be an overskirt. draped effect or
tunic, but which does not interfere
WAN thN iihC
On coats and suits. long shawl col
lars and narrow tailored lapels vie
with another for wide recognition
These defy any attempt at military
control.
Buttons are used lavishly with
clever effects, while simple, but eff
fective. spots of color are given by
beautiful over collars Of silk and cot
ton. Vests and vestee effects in
jaunty little suits promise wide popu-
larity. Many of these youthful suits
are shown with irregular buttons,
coming to long points in front and
with ripple effects in the back
Attractive belts and sash effects
are suede. although some clever new
coats are minus the belt, but still re-
tain the long lines, emphasized in
many instances by narrow box pleats.
Not only are many novelty and
style fabrics, such as tricontines,
duvet du laines, Kashmirs and silver
tones shown. but serges, tweeds and
poplins are in high favor. especially
when made up in the attractive tailor

FINEST FLAGMAKER
IS BOSTON WOMAN
U. s. PATENTS HER NEW AND
ORIGINAL METHODS.
Her Natural Artistic Talent and Won.

out the World.

One slight little white-haired woman
stands before the nation today, and in
the hearts of American soldiers and
sailors, as no one else-Amelia Bold
Fowler, maker of the nations flags,
maker of the flags of regiments now
in France and on the way to France.
Not in Betsy Ross time, not in Bet
sy Ross herself, nor in her handiwork
the first American flag-was there
ever enthusiasm that in any way
matches this acclaim over the work Of
the Boston woman of the present day.,
For Mrs. Fowler is a genius, and she
has brought to the trade of flagmaking
in America so exquisite sense of art,
of beauty and of fitness of color COM
binations and color interpretations,
and artistic design and perfection of
needlework that her achievements are
already of national and even interna-
tional fame. Her name Is known all
over the world.
Her studio is in Boston on Airing
ton street, not far from the public gar
dens, and here she has quite force
of workers employed under her direc-
ton. The intricate and important Sec
tions calling for her own individual
needlework, of course, no employe
does or can do. In her art she has no
competitors. She has made discover
les in the way of special stitches and
dyes, methods of repairing and pre-
serving flags which are of the utmost
value to this country and which the
government has protected for her by
special patents.
Since her work in preserving the
many historic flags of the government
ago-a 100000 job by the way-Mrs.
Fowler has heen doing her flagmaking
under government and Massachusetts
state auspices. Many of the American
flags, banner and guidons used in
American embassies abroad she has
done.
Meanwhile a demand for new flags
had sprung up in government circles,
Masonic orders and in the army and
nayy-for flags that were different
from the sort in vogue-flass that
would last, flags designed and EN-,
bro:dered with artistry, such as may
be found in European countries.
General Dalton was the first officer
knew Of" said Mrs. Fowler, who
was interested in flagmaking as an
art. He had travelled extensively and
therefore knew something of the per
maaence and beauty of embroidered
flags and of their necessity for each
nation. He had observed that the
method of painting flags which was
then altogether in vogue in America,
eventually cracked the silk and was
not in any way rich or effective, nor
could the workmanship or design or
/, color in any way compete with Euro
pean flags.
He sent his flagmaker to all the
needlework shops and needlework ar
fists in Boston and possibly in many

This Is for women whose husbands
have gone or will go to war. Super

STEEL INDUSTRY SUFFERING.

It is dscouraging to note that the steel industry so necessary the has been hit harder in the last few weeks by coal shortage and lack of transportation than at any time since the European started The Wall street Journal which is careful in collecting statistics says that the leading iron and steel districts operating at only little than 50 per cent of their capacity Many steel mills and furnaces have shut down account of lack of fuel and others are working part time
 Both causes for the deploabe condition could have been avoided Cities could have been supplied during the summer months with normal stocks of coal for domestic se and the winter output could have been devoted to steel and other manufactures needed for the But the production and distribution of coal most unfortunate y were the hands of theorst clothed with power who imagined that abundant supply of coal for all purposes could be mined and hauled by fiat. Dr. Garfield is the type of man who might be entrusted with economic prob ems in peace times but times call for men in big jobs who have had wide experience who can an embamass ing situation long in advance and prepare for it, and who have the driving force This is time for dreamers for we must have big who able to get things done
 It doesn't seem quite right that New York saloons had an abundant supply of coal when school houses had to close for lack of fuel.

TEACHING AMERICANISM

Verywisely the board of education of New York City has decided to exclude German and ali other foreign an guages, from the elementary schools. German will be taught in the high schools along with French. This is proper for the dcsirabity of learning German has not been affected by the Irs great language and will so continue Abo.shng German from high schools, as was done orinstance at Los Angeles, is silly. Germany will not be so silly abolish the teaching of English
 But teaching German or any other foreign language in the primary schools is different matter New York; Chicago and other large centes are poygotHc cities The New York World is authority for the statement that most of the children n that city are descendants of foreign born residents and one of the great educational difficult ies grows out of the fact that so many of the pupils must be taught the English language before they be taught anything else To compIcate this instruction with in sucton in other languages hampers the most important work of primary schools
 With the teaching of English there should go hand in hand the teaching of Amercansn and teacher should be employed who not fully competent to teach American ism and what applies New York City applies to every other city in the United States The metals in great melting pot have not been as well fused imagined

HOW TO SAVE MORE GAS

users of motor vehicles will be

easy to meet next year.
Probably the best way to get
the Chautauqua here again next
year would be by organizing an
association which would start in
early in the sale of tickets and
assure the financial success of
the undertaking.
The price of the season tickets,
$2.5 so, for seven days entertain

MISSION OF THE RED CROSS

The Red Cross is an emblem
typifying human mercy and sym.
pathy. Its mission to relieve
physical pain and minister to
mind and body has given it a
place deep in the hearts Of all
our people. For those whose dear
ones are in places of great danger
it is a comfort to know that the
American Red Cross is perform
ing more effective service on a
larger scale than ever before.
In addition to serving our en-
listed forces. it is assisting in the
work of civil relief among our
allies whose soil is being devas-
tated by the fighting.
Thus the Red Cross is helping
to interpret, the constructive
spirit of our Republic which
holds sacred human life and the
ideals it seeks.
AS time goes on the scope Of
the work of the Red Cross in Eu-
rope will increase in order that
the organization may meet the
demands that will be made upon
it. 1t must receive the full and
hearty support of the American
people. 1t is only through such
an agency that we can be as
sured relief and necessary minis
tration to our young men forming
our military force.
1t is my sincere desire that ad-
equate funds will be secured for
the work of the Red Cross. -
