A total of 4.32 pounds of gar per

AUTOMOBILES WILL BE HIGH
FOR SEVERAL YEARS

The correspondent of the Echo was
out at Detroit the other day, and
availed himself of the opportunity to
talk with some of the automobile
manufacturers. "Most of us have
been working at our full capacity on
war ORDERS" they explain, and no at
tempt is being made to fill the de
mand for new cars" The serious
phase of the situation, from the man.
ufacturers' standpoint, is that his
agency force is being badly demon
allied. l suggested that after the
war the competition in automobiles
would be keen. The answer to this
was that thousands of prosperous cit
liens are driving their old cars, ant
even now they are impatient to get
rid of them, so that they may have
new models. The emphasis placed
upon this phase of the industrial sit
uation at Detroit apparently indicates
that it is of almost equal Importance
to part of our citizens as is the
need of new styles in hats for spring
and fall.
On top of this condition in the auto
mobile market is the added surplus of
orders that will come from the bran
new field of automobile purchasers,
who form good sized crop every
season. at will take us a long time
to catch up" the automobile manufac-
turers agree; and the indications are
that while they are Catching up" that
their prices will be high, and that
there will be considerable Indifference
as to whether they sell you your auto
mobile or not. The important feature
OF the situation that may be accepted
right now, is that keen competition
in the automobile business will evil
IDENTIFY not exist for year or more
after the war, or until the manufac-
turers get to the point where they
will BE- looking for orders-instead of
turning them down.
If this condition applied only to au-
tomobiles the world would likely sur
vive-and merely swear about the de-
lay. But what is true in this one in
dustry must exist with reference to
an endless amount of other industrial
activities and necessities. The situa-
ton carries with it important rela-
tons to the processes of reconstruc-
ton which we are now facing.

amount of material in it, she herself
cut it and remodeled it into the smart
affair that I saw on her.
This was a surprise at first, but
soon I discovered that many of my
friends were doing the same thing
1t is quite a simple matter and with
the aid of a good pattern, one has a
charming new dress out of last sea-

Unlimited Use of Lace

More expensive wells come in fine
lace, and lucky indeed is she who may
tuck away and smile thru one of
these. And lace appears all over, as
trimming and as entire dress. A
thing of beatty is the gown of allover
black Chantilly lace over a white SATIN
underskirt. This creation was shown
by one of the leading designers and
made the biggest sensation of the en-
tire showing.

A myriad of designs are being

Hide Behind a Veil

This seems to be the slogan of all
smart women of today, for every
where that one goes the sight of a
bare face seems to be forbidden
Like the orientals, the women of New
York are beginning to hold a look at
their face at a premium. But one
look at these charming things will
totally efface and obliterate all blame
from the fair ones who deign hide be-
hind the soft folds of these attractive
screens.

Back with us again are the vanity

just pounds and pounds of everything
that we need and great deal that
we don't need.

Many inquiries have been received at
the headquarters of the local Red Cross
knitting section relative to the distri-
button of knitted garments to men while
in training at the various camps in this
country. In answer to these inquiries
the Red Cross has issued the following

During the period that the men are in

necessary knitted garments upon re-
questions made to the Red Cross field
officer by the soldiers commanding Off
Ger.
The men are also permitted to wear
during their training period knittedgar-
ments made for them by friends and rel
atives, provided these garments are
made according to regulation.
When the soldier goes overseas the
government and the Red Cross reequips
him with new garments. The govern

AllfR.itted garments worn by the men

Cross when the man sails for overseas
service. The local Red Cross will be
grateful for all garments sent home by
the boys.
