From Red Cross Briefs, published
In Atlanta the following inspiring ac-
count of Red Cross work in France is
taken:
The national headquarters of the
American Red Cross in Washington
has just received a report from Major
Perkins, Red Cross commissioner to
France, on the work of civil relief
and restoration done in France during
the month Of February.
During this one month, substantial
aid was given to over a hundred thou
sand French refugees. repatriates and
other war sufferers. This number in
cluded about twenty thousand persons
in the devastated areas, seven thou
sand five hundred repatriates in prov
inces and nearly six thousand under
nOurished Paris school children. More
than twenty-five thousand people were
given hospital care during this one
month, including thousands of repatri-
ate children at Evian, and about a
thousand tuberculosis patients in Paris
who were given supplementary ra-
tions daily.
Work is now being conducted by
the Red Cross in 9S French cities and
villages, not including the Friends
unit which has 21 relief stations, or
the Smith College unit which works
in IL villages. Nine civilian hospitals
with total capacity of more than a
thousand beds and 46 dispensaries give
care to children. tuberculosis patients
and refugees. n
Grants of money to French organ
izationss during the month totaled
more than half a million francs. and.
In addition, large quantities of cloth
ing. food and household goods were
distributed.
The Red Cross now has a staff of
400 workers in France, 86 having been
added during February.

The last efforts of the designers in
suits for this summer are eloquent Of
two influences. One of them is the
adaptation of styles to silk fabrics-in-
Guiding several novel weaves-and the
other prOclaimS the conservation of
wool, carried to its limit, in suits of
cloth for ordinary street wear. The
result is a great difference in style
between suits of silk and suits of wool.
The wool suit must repress all ambi-
tions in the direction of embellish-
ments that use up cloth and must even
curtail the length of coats and width
Of skirts. But the suits made of silk
are under no such obligations. They
may be as ample and elaborate as the
designers ideas.
The maker Of the little cloth suit
pictured has accepted the inevitable
gracefully and, it appears, has used
something less than the allotted four
yards of goods. But he has managed
to put a lot of youthful style into 1t.
The short coat has a plain, unshaped,
body gathered into a wide belt, and
mere reminder of skirt in the narrow
peplum. There is a narrow shawl col
lar open to the belt and plain sleeves
with no cuffs. Narrow silk braid bind
ings and bone buttons tell the brief
story Of finishing touches. Plain as
the skirt is, it is cleverly draped and
finished. Two tabs, bound with braid,
are set on at the sides and each has a
small, slit pocket In it.

made by American women and offered
to the army. The general points out
that the medical department is buy
ing in the open market pajamas, oper-
ating gowns, bath robes and GONZALES
cent suits while the Red Cross stands
ready to supply them. He tells the
surgeon general at Washington that
the work of the Red Cross is of i'm
mense value in keeping up the morale
of the army, and that it also releases
labor for use elsewhere.

of women. The handsome model, for
"a dressy suit, is made of pongee in the
natural color and betrays the work
Of experts In every particular. The
skirt has panel at the front and back
formed by plaits that are not pressed
in and is cut to ankle length. 1t is SIM
pie enough; but there is nothing simple
about the coat. 1t is the creation of a
master designer who was able to carry
out an elaborate inspiration. Its skirt
is made in pointed panels of uneven
length and large and small covered
buttons serve to ornament it. The
print and button ideas appear again
in the cuffs. A suit like this gives its
wearer the assurance of being well
enough dressed whatever the demands
may be.

VOGUE for White.

Quantities of delightful models,
both imported and domestic, are de-
veloped in white-white wool, white

and both the oyster white and ivory

list. Any one failing to register will
be classed as a deserter and will be
prosecuted to the full extent of the
law The penalty is usually ten

sons who evade the draft as it makes
it unfair to the men who do comply
to the orders
Men who are i'll at the time of
registration will be provided with a
means to make out the required
records. 1t is the plan now that a
member of the family or a friend of

tration card to the home and fill it
out. No excuses will be accepted by
the local board as ample announce
ment is made and plenty of time
given for everyone to make arrange
ments to register on June 5.
In the June 5, 1917, registration,

stated from the platform by the off
GERS, after the report of the differ
ent committees had been made, that
the session at Hutchinson was more
successful from every standpoint than
any other held previously. Mrs. A..

paid enrolment was 1,6S7 and with
other visitors it is estimated more
than 1000 were there from out Of

compared with $24S,OOO purchased
in all all the previous loans. This
is 60 per cent over our quota. The
banks have in addition sold $11,S00
to residents of adjoining counties.
"The success of the drive is due
not alone to the splendid work Of
the War Fund association and others
who assisted in the canvass and reg
listration," said G. A. Rogers, chair
man of the Liberty Loan committee
today, "but likewise to the fine pa
triotic spirit of the people of Dickin-
son county who Loyalty loaned of
their savings to the Government in
its time of need. 1t is especially
helpful that the bonds were so wide
F distributed. Instead of a few
purchasing large amounts, there is
bond in almost every home, and
that means a deeper personal inter
est in the war and our governments
welfare. Dickinson county now has
over one million dollars invested in
government bonds, laid away in saf-
ETY. deposit vaults as a resource for
a rainy day, and this million dollars
means source of great contentment
and satisfaction. The county has
made the finest record of any
county in this district, and one of |
The best in the state, and the Lib
erty Loan committee extends its CON
gratuations to every citizen who
bought bond, and to every worker
who assisted in the campaign"
Bank Reports
The official reports of the banks
sales follow:
Abilene weekly reflector. [volume] (Abilene, Kan.) 1888-1935, 1918-05-16

Honor flags were given by the gov
ernment to towns and counties in
which the bond sales of their banks
exceeded the total quotas of the
banks, made by the United States
on the basis of deposits. Herington
banks had total quota Of $40, 800;
they sold $69,150. To this was
added the purchases of the Rock Is
land employees in Herington, $780,
800 sent directly to Washington but
credited to Herington, total of
1923, ,450 or over twice the quota,
emitting the town to a flag and
star. Abilene's bank quota was
$1S5,600; the banks sold $275,75O.
The county distribution made loc-
ally had nothing to do with the
Honor flags which we're decided by
the National Liberty Loan commit
tee on the basis of the bank sales.
Dickinson received an Honor Flag
early in the campaign, going over
the top in the first ten days. The
following towns also received Honor
flags: Abilene, Herington, Wood
