Women Organized
As A War Machine

The problems OF each state In
dealing with the question OF women
and war work were discussed In
threc-minute talks by ohairmen OF
the state divisions OF the woman's
committee OF the council OF national
defense on the first day of the ma
tional conference In Washington,
May l3. IL. and is.
The reports brought out the fact
that during the first year OF the war
huge piece OF machinery, which
had amalgamated existing agencies
10 reach women for service, was now
In operation to carry out the de-
mands OF the government for the
winning OF the war.
Difficulties OF the woman's COM
mittee In different states ranged
from the problem OF reaching the
sparely settled districts in the hills
OF South Carolina and the many re.
ligious sects In Pennsylvania, which
were opposed TO war. TO the Ameri-
canixation problem In Nebraska,
where II was stated ono out OF every
five citizens IL a foreigner. The state
chalrmen were unanimous In dea
claring that tho registration OF
women. which has been conducted
by the. womens committee, 10 Of
greatest value.

All of this has lifted the art Of
dress instead of degrading 1t. 1t en-
livens life; II brightens the prospect
of our sacrifices; 1t Is light to our
endurance.
Exotic Extravaganza Undesirable.
Don't jump to the conclusion that
women are buying cloth OF gold
gowns cut to the waistllne, or jetted
nets that are mere fragments Of COW
ering, or satips with ceremonial
trains. This ts evening apparel Of a
kind. but only one kind.
II might be said that Washington
leads the way in this fashion Of
dressing, for the place of admins
tration has rapidly become the place
of extreme gayety, ceaseless enter
tainment and fascinating new
clothes. one dresses more there than
In New York or Chicago.
The kind of evening clothes that
are being bought by women who
have never before INDUCED in this
bit of recklessness, are the things
that make one appear suitably
frocked for the evening.
Once upon a time, they went out
IN the evening in whatever clothes
they happened to have on when
their husbands telephoned to meet
them for dinner or the play; today
they have learned the lesson taught
BY the better dressed class that eve
ming clothes make for comfort and
are desirable.
Evening Coats Demanded by Women.
There were days when a woman
used her motor coat for any chance
evening gayety. Today she is asking
Tor one of the vast assemblage OF
evening capes that the shops and
dressmakers offer to this new type
of buyer.
These new wraps have eItraordI,
nary charm. They are figured,
whereas they used to be solid. They
are lavishly trimmed with fur, re-
gardleSs OF summer weather.
Chiffon, in great Dresden patterns,
is used over silver or gold metallic
cloth, or lining OF plain satin.
Dark colors are chosen, as we'll as
light. The two new blues, Liberty"
and Blue Devil" are chosen in
crepe or chiffon that has an immense

flower on It,

immense hats OF rose chiffon and
