tear of dust, and storm and sun, and

ly in warm weather, you know.
Clothes for Summer Days.
There are thousands of women who
wish to remain in the city for an eve
ming at play or dinner at a restaurant,
and they must have the clothes to suit
the occasion. Clothes, that is. which
can go on from the hours of 10 a. m.
to 6 p m INTO the hours of p. m.
to IL.
The dressmakers are exercising a
good deal of talent on discovering
new types of these gowns, for they
realize the need and the demand.
Evening dress has by no means dis
appeared, even with the war and mid
summer, and yet, it is quite usual to
see, mingled with o low gown of satin.
a one-piece frock OF crepe de chine,
satin or even organdy and printed
chiffon.
In searching for gowns which can
be simply arranged and simply worn
and yet have a distinguished note that
keeps them from the shirtwaist type,
the dressmakers took up the soutane
of the French priest. Naturally, they
changed it. The tight skirt was ADJUST
ed under the long robe to carry out
the suggestion of trousers. This skirt
is not necessarily attached to the SOU
tame The modem version of it is in
white or tan linen. White jersey
skirts are also worn. ~
Just where this fashion 1eaped into
tho public eye, of putting a dark tunic
or one-piece robe over separate skirt
of white satin. linen or crash, no one
knows. but it has appeared here and
there among smart circles in sufficient
quantity to impress its identity on
those who are studying the subject of
clothes from new viewpoint.
No Boning. Little Lining and Comfort.
The soutane. which has been mod
ernized into midsummer American
war relief frock-and there is a near
connection between the Red Cross
work of the American woman and the
Croix Rouge work of the French priest
among the soldiers-is of blue or black
crepe or jersey
The sketch shows one OF blue crepe
de chine, which to the mind of the
woman who wears-it, reaches the nth
degree of mid-sumner comfort. 1t
has no boning. the lining is of black
China silk, and the buttons down the
front are for ornament, not use. The
gown Is slipped over the head and ad-
justed by a few invisible hooks and
eyes, the belt is clnsped in the back,
and one is ready to go forth thru the
long hou of activity that are ahead
of every woman of character in this
country.
The buttons. by the way, are OF
white linen, the separate skirt is of
white linen, and the soutane is cut
several inches shorter in back than in
front. showing quite splash of this
white. The simple belt, which takes
the place of the more ornamental sash
of the priest, is of blue suede. and its
two buckles front and back are of
white linen.

I'VE have had bountiful crops, SO
that we can feed not only our

And in the face of all these good
things, we are apt to be unmindful

Talks to Omaha TheoSophiSts

"Germanism is only the natur,l

has as its basis the materialistie
philosophy that force and the strug'
gle for existence and the survival
of the fttest express the law OF
human evolution" Such was the
declaration made by Mr.. Claude L.
Watson in a lecture entitled Ma
terialism Mother Of Germanism,"
under the auspices of the Theosoph-
ical society.
As opposed to this false philoso-.
ply the lecturer presents the theo-
sophie view, which he claims is not
only in harmony with the teachings
of Christianity, but is synthesis
of the truths underlying all religion,
philosophy and science. The es-
sence of this view is that an all per-
vading life underlies the evolution
of form and that this life evolves in
accord with law of divine justice.

DALLAS, Texas, May 4-Aside from the hazards incident to piloting an army airplane several thousand feet above the earth, aviatOrs sta toned at the several training fields in Texas have experienced a number of freak accidents. While in no instance have such accidents been fatal to the young fiiers, they have cost the Brit ish and American governments con- siderable in damage to airplanes.
 At Ellington field, near Houston, a few days ago, cadet observed an idle plane resting outside a hangar, and climbed in the seat for a short nap. The ships engine was dead, and the only live thing about the 1ier was the cadet, and he was soon catching wink" But suddenly something happened, and when at tendants disengaged him from be. heath the machine he was taken to the hospital with a sprained ankle and numerous bruises about his head, face and body.
 A gust of wind had blown the air plane upside down, and in the cadets efforts to straighten out what he mis- took for a tail spin he had landed underneath. The machine was almost a wreck.
 The Royal flying corps, stationed at the British camps around Fort Worth, early learned that the girl students at Texas Christian University there enjoyed their stunts, and they made daily calls in that vicinity. In his eagerness to please the girls one young Canadian airman went too low and struck a fiagpole on one of the buildings. This caused him to swerve and land on the roof The plane was demolished and the aviator badly bruised.
 At Lake Charles, La, an aviator fell upon an automobile, killing it's driver and wrecking the airplane The avi- ator was only slightly injured.

kept thoroughly cleansed, so as to prevent any possible infection. The horse is strapped into position with the table top placed in an upright position and then the top is adjusted to any angle desired for the sort of operation necessary. After the opera tion the horse is placed in stock where he cannot move enough to hurt himself, and as soon as the horse is able he is turned out into the "con- valescent" ward outside, where fresh air and limited exercise soon fit the animal for active service again.
 The veterinary hospital has many wards for different kinds of horse dis eases, and there is a sort of quaran- tine for the steeds, so that no con- tagiOus disease is allowed to spread
 In the collie ward the corners are all rounded out, so that the horse cannot. become lodged in corner. When a horse or mule has the collie it must be given lots of room. The animal groans and losses about on the ground in agony, and unless care is taken in construction of the ward it might injure itself.
 Back of the hospital is sort of fresh air farm, or sanitarium, con sisting of portion of forest fenced off to give the convalescent animals forage, exercise and fresh air. A short time in this lot soon puts the animal into trim so that it can carry pack or go back into the harness of wagon train.
