Very often the novel appearance of coat is largely due to the clever treatment of the furs used in the de- velopment of the garment. The coat Illustrated is particularly interesting in that seal is employed in the skirt, which is full and flaring. while moleskin fur is used in the upper portion. This forms an odd pointed effect and Is cut in at the waist line by girdle of seal fur.

4 Few Don'ts for Knitters

Don't measure by your fingers
Some are long some are short.
A rule is better.
Don't stretch your work when
measuring. Smooth it out on a
table and lay the rule down on it.
Don't knit with needles toe
small or needles too large for
the thread. The result is not
satisfactory.
Don't stop ribbing until il
measures 44 inches. For the
ribbing must be this long to keep
the sock up.
Don't get interested in some
thing else and knit too long on
the plain part of the sock leg.
81 inches is sufficient.
Don't forget to narrow at the
right time and at the right place.
1t Spoils the looks of your work
or knitting.
Don't forget that the foot of
your sock must be the same
width as the plain part of the
leg.
Don't forget that it takes two
socks to make a pair and there
fore must be knit alike.
Don't wait until you finish a
sock before you examine your
work. A mistake is easily rene
died if discovered in time.
Don't be discouraged if you
fail to knit a perfect sock at first
attempt. Just remember who
will wear these socks and keep
on trying. 1t is so easy to pull
out knitting and put it III again.
Don't crochet around the neck
of sweater with Slip Stitch it
is too tight Use Single Crochet.
Don't fail to put your name on
the articles you knit when you
bring them. We are anxious to
learn the names of all our
knitters.

Chairman Knitting Committee.

CEDAR CITY PAYS

T N the apportionment of the Liberty Loan fund
to be subscribed by the various counties and
cities, it is determined from the banking reserve
of each county and city. AS result, the quota
fixed for this county and particularly this city, is
high in comparison with other towns and cities
in this part of the state due to the fact that our
banking facilities are greater. Take for instance
Washington county-with more people and per-
haps Just as much money-because there are only
two banks there and capitalized low the appor-
tionment of bonds is less for the entire county
than for Cedar City alone. Beaver City, with as
many or more people than Cedar City, had $780,
600 worth of bonds as its allotment as against
Cedar City's $4,000.
But notwithstanding this seeming discrimina-
tion there is little doubt but that Cedar City will
go over the top and again over subscribe her quo
Ia, as she has done in both the previous subscrip-
tons. But we believe that the quota allotted is
very liberal one for this place. and if we strain
our financial resources too severely now it may
work a hardship before the war is over, for from
present indications there will be calls on the
American people for financial support of the gov
eminent before the war is over, and probably
good many Of them.
The man who is able to subscribe for bonds
and fails or refuses to do his just part according
to his ability is Stacker and should be treated as
SUCH We understand that there are few such
in Cedar City, and they were not born in Germany
either These persons are being kept track of, and
unless proper spirit is manifested some special
action will be taken covering their cases, which
will doubtless be effectual in enstng their SYM
pathy and supper in the cause. There is wide
spread feeling among citizens that each person
has duty to perform, and that it will be useless
to try to saddle that duty upon someone else; even
If harsh methods have to be resorted to-
1t is much pleasanter to do these things volun-
tarily and gracefully, but do them we must We
have got to wage this war in defense of human
liberty to successful conclusion and it takes
money as well as men to do it. There may be
some who would prefer to withhold their money
now and apply it on the 500, 900 OOO, 900 ndem-
nifty Germany is already discussing as suitable
punishment for our prolonging the war but the
majority of the American people evidently prefer
to scrap it out, rather than to bow in submission
to the autocratic yoke, and the majority governs

ANNOUNCEMENT

The University Of Utah announces
that it has adopted Four-quarter
plan. Under this plan the institution
will be in session practically through
out the entire year.
The summer quarter covers twelve
weeks of work divided into two terms
of six weeks each. The first term
of the Summer Quarter begins June
10 and ends July 10th: the second
term begins July 23rd and ends Aug
ust Both. The student may enter
either for the Term or for the Quar-
ter as desired.
Trained Leaders in Great Demand
The demand for engineers, chem
lists, doctors of medicine, trained Ius-
mess men, legal counselors, is in
creasing daily and will undoubtedly
continue to increase for long time
to come. Young men and women,
therefore, who are not of the draft
age should begin at once to prepare
for their life's careers.

WAR OUTLOOK is GRAVE

IT HE events of the past week in the European
war arena have been of decidedly discour-
aging nature. The grey peril has been persistently
thrustng itself forward on the west front. de-
spite reports of tremendous casualties Appar-
emily the war lords of Germany are entirely insen-
slble to the suferngs and deathe of their soldiers
They have but one objective in view-to conquer
at all costs. The spirited resistance of the Brit
ish seems to be weakening under the long contin-
ued strain, and unless new recruits are forthcom-
ing in liberal numbers and very promptly, the out
look for the British holding back the German
hordes for any great length of time is dismal in
deed
The capture of the most Of Messnes Ridge,
one of the stronghods of the Western front at
a time when military authorities were predicting
that the great German offensive had worn itself
out, is one of the most disquieting reports of the
present year. If the enemy succeeds in breaking
through the British line and gaining access to the
channel ports, large portion of the British army
will be trapped and can be destroyed Then the
enemy would have the European situation in their
own hands and America would have the stupen-

THE RICH MANS WAR"

lid j. p Morgan bring on this war so that his
only son could join the navy and offer his life
for his country? Did Henry p. Davidson, who is
devoting his energies without charge to the adj
minstration of the Red Cross, bring on the war
so that his only could enter the aviation serv-
ice of his country? Did Cornelius Vanderbilt bring
on the war so that he and his son could serve in
the army that will soon go to France? Did George
Gould bring on the war so that his sons could be
drafted into the National army?
1t is one of the main stock arguments of pro-
German propagandists that this is a rich mans
war. When the war is over and the assay of
service given to the nation is made, men of wealth
will hold place in public recognition of patriotism
second only to that occupied by the fighting forces
Novel and deep respect for the love of country
displayed by certain rich men-and great array
of them-will be one Of the definite results of the
war.
This is not poor mans fight nor rich mans
war 1t is the struggle Of the American nation
for the right to survive and every citizen must
and shall bear the brunt of it to the extent of his
means and strength.-Beaver County News

CURFEW LAW REVIVED

# HE RECORD is glad to note that the curfew
law, so long dead letter upon our city ordi-
nance book is being revived and enforced The
growing tendency of young people of this place to
be upon the streets and in places of business at
late and unseemly hours of night is one of our
great social problems. Mere children, from ten
years of age up, were acquiring this pernicious
habit of running the streets at night" usually
contrary to the wishes and instructions of their
parents, but the custom was becoming so common
and universal that they were unable to check it
without the assistance of the civil authorities.
Already, since the resurrection of the curfew
ordinance great improvement is noticeable If
followed up and persisted in, this law will make
all the difference possible in the career of many of
the young boys and girls, for instead of wasting
their time upon the streets, acquiring other bad
habits and getting into mischief and difficulties,
they will be found at home reading and gaining
fund of useful knowledge, provided, of course
the parents do their duty in supervising the kind
OF reading matter brought into their homes.

THE United States Government as well as the
citizens in many localities have shown very clearly
that they have no time nor patience to endure the
obstruction and hurtful German propaganda of
alien enemies in this country. The secret service
department has been quite active and with the
aid of demonstrations conducted on their own ac-
count by citizens in various parts of the country
the pro-Germans have retired well into cover or
are beng held in the retention camps. If Germany
counted upon stirring up enough trouble and dis
cora among the American people to prevent us
from becoming etfectual in the war their calcula-
lions have miscarried for it is demonstrated that
there are plenty of loyal, liberty loving American
citizens in this country to make it exceedingly un-
healthy for kaisersm here This is as it should
be, but the vigil should not be relaxed during the
