Large Number OF
Dressings Asked
In OctobeYQ Quota

The order for the October quota
OF surgical dressings to be made by
the Fargo branch has been received
and 1t is expected that work will be
begun tonight. The number of dress
ings required from the city branch
Is large including 1000 fve-yard
rolls.

yet re-organized for the autumn

making of hve-yard rolls and 1t is

order will be filled by the mems

The mems classes of the FRS:
Presbyterian church and OF the Con-
gregational Union will meet tonight
at the Masonic Temple for the first
time since the summer recess and 1t
is hoped to start work tonight on
the rolls.
The five-yard roll is a gauze dress
ings used for large wounds and the
in its manufacture. The October al
lottment is the largest monthly order
for this particular dressing yet re-
cetyed and many workers are needed.
In addition to the rolls the order
includes 500 of the absorbent pads
in the 14x20 inch size and many
thousands of the small 2x2 inch wipe.
It was expected that the workers
today would complete the necessary
order for .gauze masks and that work
on the regular October quota might
be the occupation of the regular
workers in the rooms. AS the
quota is large and the need urgent
it is hoped that as many regular
workers as possible will continue at

And these are tucked and fur trim

is so rare they are enthusiastically
welcomed.

Nee Skirts Proclaim the
Doctrine of Conservation

d, Old China blue is favored for fab

blue with no green tone.
In trimmings, this autumn. but
tons play a prominent part. Really,
swarms of them are used.
Separate coats show the straight
line SO much approved these conser-
walton days. Collars favored are the
muffler, the scarf, or the long shawl.
Pockets act as a decorative touch as
we'll as for use. The raglan and the
set-in sleeve are both used, while
some coats show the armholes ac-
tually extending down to the hips.
Paris is showing some interesting
dresses indicating a new and novel
silhouette. These have the back
straight and plain, while the front
of the dress is draped.
Panels have apparently come to
stay. They are much used as side
tunics on dressee' and they often
continue a trifle above the waist
line. Perhaps the most fashionable
Of the straight collarless blouses is
the one with the long loose panel at
the back.
The dress with one side entirely
different from the other Is consid-
cred smart For instance, a collar
less dress will have the left side of
the waist portion turned back in a
long rever while the skirt at the left
will show a side tunic, the right side
being perfectly plain.
The fashionable skirt has been
pulled down It Is straighter, scant-
er, and longer. The novelty will be
the instep length skirt which many
smart women will adopt Five inches
from the ground will probably be the
most popular skirt length. though
many of the younger women who
have worn their skirts ten inches
from the ground will now wear them
seven. All the skirts are mounted
on an inside belt varying from two
to four inches in width.

What ToDo With
Your Waste PQber

Fargo housewives are asked to do
nate their waste paper to the SAL
wage department of the Fargo Red
Cross and it will be called for, but 1t
is not desired at the headquarters of
the Salvage department.
Arrangements have been made with
a local firm to collect the paper do
mated to the Salvage department. BY
notifying the Salvage department,
telephone 35, waste paper will be
called for. Tt is to be tied in bum
dies, securely and it is requested that
delivery be not asked for less than
so pounds OF paper. The contributor
is asked to tell the collector that the
contribution is intended for the Red
Cross and receive a receipt from him
for the same. The paper Is not hand
led directly by the Salvage depart
ment but a clearing is made once
each month by the receipts through
the firm that collects, and settlement
made with the Salvage department.

Trimmings Are
SIMPLEST Sort

AS for the trimmings, they are still
of the simplest sort advises the

Times. Embroideries take the lead
every time, and when the gown is
Paris born then look for something
quite unusual and arresting about
the character Of that embroidery.
Wool is the favored thread. and the
coiors may be the flashiest in the
universe provided they are put to-

Hats Small, With Little
characterization Is RuIe

There is one item of attire that
no woman ever becomes so emanci-
pated that she is Indifferent to it and
that item is her hat. A, new hat has
a soul solace that man can never
realize being restricted to the absurd
instrument of horror that Lord Derby
made famous. He knows nothing Of
the place that a hat may assume in a
career; he knows nothing Of the
stimulus and sense of well being
which g well designed and well chos-
en- hat have in maintaining the NOR
ale of a nation at war.
AT least twice a year is the mo-
mentous decision forced upon woman
and this season the only difficult part
of the affair Is to choose which one
of many lovely things is loveliest.
The hats are things of delight and
they cover every known need of wom-
en-. One may choose a hat of a Sc
yereIy plain design suggesting effi-
cheney and no foolishness or one may
select soft thing of velvet and drip
ping plunes that is the essence OF
feminine fr.yolity.
Hats are also mostly small and not
great deal, of ornamentation is used
Feathers in new guises appear as
small quilts or soft fringes. Cock
feathers in natural shades and dyed
\ to match the hat are popular and
have been used In interesting man
ner Ostrich which has suffered a
sort of eclipse In recent years is be-
| ing revived and can do its bit on al
most any hat and does it in variety
of ways. 1t is cuf1ed and uncurled,
clipped and unclipped, burnt and not
burnt and almost any other varia-
! ton you care to add.
Wings are used, such wings as new
l.er grew on any bird, but which adorn
| the autumn hats with a satisfaction
to all concerned And then the wool
embroideries. and the velvet ma
lterials, soft becoming concoctions
/ that one adjusts anew each time 1t is
warn, all have. their particular allure
| this autumn season.
And there are hats Of wooden braids
and d few shapes Of satin and in fact
the woman who cannot be pleased
this season in hats. must be one who
has permanently lost interest in the
universe for they are lovelier than in
many years.

There has also been received a
good supply of linen of table and
bed and bathroom linen from the
county branches. The Red Cross has
recently asked for gifts of linen for
use in the hospitals in France, from
the household of America as a great
supply is needed and IT is desired
to not make this demand on a mar
ket already abnormal. The Cass
county branches have responded gen
erously to the new demand. The
shipment will be made probably
sometime next week.

The following hints Of fashion are
suggested by the fashion edition In
the October issue Of the Woman
Home Companion:
The new skirts proclaim conserva-
ton. A yard and three quarters is
their most ample width, while the
more fashionable measure no more
than, a yard and a quarter
Straight, simmer than ever-that's
the new silhouette. There is just a
suggestion of a natural curve at the
waist, but the bust is flat and the
shoulder narrow with slight droop-
ing line. The sleeve is usually long
and narrow. If there is width II
comes below the elbow. ~
Fur tones are favored colors-bea-
yer, mink, seal in the brown shades,
while in the grays We have cub and
bear.
No more white at the neck line
that's Fashions latest The newest
ne-piece dresses now show two ex-
tremes In collars-the muffler SO
high that you can't see sign of the
chin, or the collarless neck finished
merely with a narrow fold or an en-
broidery stitch. This collarless meek
may be straight across, round or cut
in l''U" shape. These new neck lines
are not very becoming to the average
mortal, are they? .F..
If the straight silhouette is broken
at all this season, 1t will be at the
hip line. Many of the new French
frocks bring their trimming en-
phasis at this point. Sometimes a
broad band of silk braid is run in
and out through slashes, and some
times, in place of the band, there
is a scant circular nounce or a clus-
ter of narrow tucks.
The blue with the greenish cast
will be favored combination color
this season. One dark tone is
known as Merle. another lighter
shade with slight gray cast, is
called Baltic, while Peacock Is rev.
cling in popularity. >

Ideas in fall hats are coming by
twos and threes into this. market. Most
of the hats turn up and away from
the face, and the ways in which they
turn are numerous as can be. Some
of them, turn back from the face with
a larger sweep than did those Of the
last winter season. Others squirt out
at the sides at sharp angles. and still
Others choose the back or sides for
the placing Of upturned points. Some
times these abrupt extremities are
terminated by little balls of trimming
and again they are left quite plain
and void Of trimming.
This smart hat of black pan vel
