THE COST OF FASHION

It is announced that the Designers As sociation, which met at Chicago this week will curb the styles of women's clothes It is desired to conserve materials They pro- pose to create fewer changes of styles. Pres ident Lenny, of the Association, thinks one or two style changes a year are enough He will try to hold down the eXuberant fancy of the designers.
 It may be some job. Making new styles for women has been a great game. If the producers desired more business, all they had to do was to create some new styles. Then women would throw away garments that were perfectly good, simply because they looked out of date. This doubled the sale of clothing
 It did not help retail merchants. They had to dispose of many stocks at large sacrifices and they never knew what to depend upon The willingness of women to accept these frequent style changes has grown out of the fixed tradition that it is women's business to please the, men. New and stylish clothing helps toward that end.
 Progressive women don't like to feel they are mere parasites, depehdent for their support on tine favor of some man. They conceive that woman's first business is to do her work in the world She is under the same obligation to please men as men are to please women, and no more. Hence there is no more reason why she should be taxed for incessant style changes than that men should be.
 The producers have made money out of frequent style changes So many fac tories are now supplying war material that producers have all they can do. So they don't need to trot out a new style every two months. After the war is over, they will no doubt find the same old game prof itable. But women are very independent, and may not play it.-Gainesville (Fla.) Sun.

Another thing! Many of the food rules now in vogue on the outside are not appli- cable in Alaska where many persons resid- ing in outlying points are compelled to pm- chase provisions for several months ahead OF go without entirely For instance to re- strict the man living one hundred or even fifty miles back from trading post, as a great many do, to five pounds of sugar would be a hardship which the food com mission had no intention of imposing in it's general order. Also, to permit retail deal CTS to purchase but five sacks of sugar at a time would work another hardship in AL asla, where, at certain times of the year, steamers from the markets of the south are two weeks or more apart.

The war aims of Great Britain, as clear ly set forth by Lloyd George, are just as emphatic as those embodied in President Wilson's late address before congress. As both these nations have the people and the power to back the views of their leaders, there is a glaring likelihood that the war will be settled along the lines outlined by them even if.considerable more time is re- ouircd to bring about such settlement It is to be presumed that both Lloyd George and the President are fully conycrsant with the fighting resources of their individual countries and that they speak adviscdly on the kind of peace terms that will be ac- ccptcd by those countries.

According to statistics of the transpor- tatiou companies operating steamers be- tween lower coast points and Alaska, there are fewer people in Alaska at present than at any time since the early spring of 1898, more Alaskus having gone south for the winter than ever before in the history of the Territory. All of which means that thcr will be the biggest rush to the north during the coming spring and summer than for twenty years. Sure, they will re- turn

Fined for Scdition' is a heading that does mot look right in any American news paper these days, as scdition or seditious uttcuuccs should not be settled for by pay ing fines. Imprisonment for long terms is the only sentence applicable in such cases except that after the terms are served de- port0tiou should be stipulated To impose light fine for such offense is little better than apologizing to the offender for his ar rest.

Even yet there are a few venomous pub lications throughout the country that are doing everything possible to discredit President Wilson's sincerity in his efforts to pilot the ship of state through the troub- louS waters in which she is now sailing and some of these heel snappers go so far as to hint that the president has profted financially through certain appropriations. In time of peace mbomdcd freedom of the press is granted in America, but at pres cnt such utterances should constitute trea- son. Truly big men who have the interest of the country at heart are not criticizing the President these days, but are support ing him in every measure that arises.
