Dress Reform a Question Of Buttons.

Modern clothing differs from that of
the Greeks and Romans less because
of changes in notions of art than be-
cause of the invention of buttons. Two
centuries ago no one wore buttons.
They were unknown. Then a few styl-
ish folk began to wear them as orna-
ments. Someone finally discovered
that buttons could be useful as well as
ornamental, and began to use them as
fasteners. Up to that time clothes did
not fit. Tailors tried to make clothing
so that it would drape the body grace
fully, but any attempt to obtain snug
ness resulted merely In Openness. Mod
ern dress reformerS who seek to re-
store the old styles, based on the drap-
cry theory, could get their ideas speed
lily adopted if they found way to
close up the button factories.

Many Kinds of Courage.

The essential meaning of courage lies
I'm the word itself. 1t comes into Eng
lish by way of the French courage,
which comes in turn, from the Latin,
cor, meaning "heart." Courage is
heartage, keeping the heart steady
even in the presence of disturbing con-
ditions Sometimes it appears in the
ability to keep the heart from fiut-
tering when a sudden danger threat

going when life settles down into a
grind and the heart would sink to de-
spair but for persistent courage.

"Thp San Diego is an armored
cruiser of 1900 tons displacement,
and carried complement of 1114 Off
ersc and men,"
Officers at the navy dpa. tment
have not agreed on any theory as to
how the vessel was sent to the bot
tom. The first thought in the minds
of many officials is that enemy sub
marines have returned to this side
of the Atlantic and found in the San
Diego their first victim.
Other theories advanced are that
the vessel struck floating mine :;
that there was an internal explosion );
that she was part of a convoy and
collided with another ship The ap-
parent absence of any loss of life
argues against the explosion theory.
Admiral Benson, chief of naval op-
erations, is understood to be of the
opinion that the San Diego struck a
mine, either an American mine, or
one sown by German submarines op-
Grating off the American coast more
than a month ago.
Fire Island, where the cruiser San
Diego was sunk, is about ten miles
off the south shore of Long Island and
about fifty miles east of the entrance
