Rumor had it last spring that wom-
on prominent in society and club work
had pledged themselves, as an exam
ple to the women of the nation, not
to buy summer hats, giving the mon
eys thus saved to war funds. The
women themselves disclaimed any
such stand, by vigorous denial and
by proceeding to buy-well almost
their usual supply of summer milli-
merry. These women felt after due
thought and deliberation, that such an
action would have far from a good
effect on industry, because 1t would
In no way help to keep business go

actually sees this fall are leaning to-
ward more uniformity in shape and a
new simplicity that is the acme of
0martness and elegance.

be created from the relics Of gayer
days; one needs but the time, energy
and ingenuity.
For travelling l saw a practical
model, made up in French blue crepe
de chine. It was a slipover style, with
a deep V-shaped opening for the neck,
which was edged with very narrow
frill Of Valenciennes and a line OF
brown fur. This same trimming fol-
lowed the arm holes and continued
along the underarm seams to the hem.
Black lacquered ribbons were run
through shirrings at the normal waist
line, and tied under the arms. The
principal attraction of such garment
lies in the fact that it does not cape
the whole way down the front, and
that being cut on such simple lines, It
retains it's grace and effectiveness.

A hat which depends upon it's

charm, is of black panne velvet,

and airing up with great abandon on
the left side. The sole ornament is a
spear like pin of Jet thrust through
the crown at just the right angle.
A hat which would do justice to
and service for several occasions has
a crown Of duvetyn in the pale grey,
with whirl Of uncurled grey ostrich
on the right side. The brim which
turns up sharply off the face all round
is of finely pleated blue silk. This
would be particularly charming for a
blonde.
A set developed in brown and
yellow, is composed Of cape Of gold
broadcloth with a deep roll collar and
hem-band of beaver; and the hat
is simply a wide band of the fur with
soft tam crown of broadcloth and
a cabochon of pleated ribbon.

tion indies, we are going to be blithe
about it, and wear them if they rattle.
Until we are warned to conserve along
particular lines, however, we can wor
ry along on the distractingly pretty
things that the shops are still offer
ing in as bewildering if not as plenti-
full array as ever. And while there is
material to work with, many dainty
bits of lingerie may be evolved from
pieces purchased at the remnant coun-
ter, and a negligible amount of silk
will make a negligee. There is an old
saying that silk wears longer than
cotton, but am inclined to think
that it's longevity is attributable to the
excellent care that we subconsciously
give 1t. Crepe de chine, georgette
and crepe meteor make the finest of
foundations for garnishments of lace,
ribbon and embroidery.
In varied styles do we find the tea
gown and boudoir robe displayed; and
about the only latitude we are allow
ing ourselves these busy days is the
wearing of as dainty and effeminate
house gowns as we please. A note Of
economy is also sounded in the mar
velous possibilities offered by the
evening gowns which we are loath to
cast aside, but which have had their
day Of pristine freshness. Wonders
may be affected with a satin or silk
slip, cleaned, pressed and fashioned
into an empire underslip, with bod
ice and founce Of lace; while an erst-
while tunic can easily be made into a
coatee, with bands of colored chiffon
or lace ruffles for ornamentation.

KITCHENS MUST SAVE
so PER CENT. MORE
Exports to Army and Allies
viii Increase Greatly.

For every pound OF food housewives
have saved this year the Government
expects them to save a pound and
half next year in order that the food
for shipment abroad. which must be 80
per cent. greater than this year, may be
supplied.
In an appeal to the women OF New
York State the Federal Food Board
says:
with It's more than 10000, 900 popu-
lation, New York State represents APP
proximateIy one-tenth the population
Of the United States, and this means
that housewives OF the state are ex-
pected to save one-tenth OF that part OF
the 100000 tons of meats and fats
which must be obtained from direct saw
Ing. The problem OF sending this
quantity OF meats and fats will be more
difficult than the shipping Of 100000
tons OF bresdstuffs. which We must also
supply to the other side during the COM
ing year.
THE policy of the United States In
feeding its own people and helping to
feed those OF it's allies and of neu-
trail countries differs materially from
the German method. Germany has been
going into conquered territory and
requisitioning It's meat taking entire
herds without a thought of the people
depending upon these herds and without
thought OF the meat supply for the next
year. The American Government aims
to feed its own people, to help feed 220,-
900 O0o OF our allies and still keep It's
herds intact. The Government expects
the housewives of New York State to
do their part"

At least one Atlantic navigator seems
to be sure that the German submarine
menace has ceased to exist. He COM
mands a French passenger steamship
that arrived yesterday morning at an
Atlantic port, and while he was not per-
mitted TO talk for publication, his pas
sengers said the ship received wireless
notice on Friday several hundred miles
at sea that she might turn on all lights
and run in rre-war style. That Is why
the paint was scraped from her por's
and why the passengers got ali impress

is enough. is It not?"
He also remarked that he believed he
had the distinction o. being a unique
war traveller, not having been at the
front, not having brought souvenirs, not
having burned an ounce of gasolene in
automobiling and having no intention OF
writing a book or of lecturing.

For the first time since the epidemic
