The new hats for the midseason are
the daintiest, summeriest things that
designers have offered for a long time.
The wide brimmed hat prevails, for
really warm weather seems to demand
it. Sheer fabrics such as georgette, or
candle, tulle and handkerchief linen are
most popular for wear with thin sum-
mer frocks and their trimming is
usually a soft bow of self material or

allies are ready for any blow the Teu

And, ignificantly, the infcrmantS
declared that undoubtedly the TeutoI
has over-prepared, - advertising his
offensive since December, he ha:
shunted fresh men from the east front
and weeded out the weaker units from
the west line. But he has overplayed
his waiting game, in the opinion OF
military men.
1t is good strategy to wait as long
as waiting means that better prepara-
tion can be obtained. But in the case
of the German, he apparently reached
his maximum of preparation some time
ago, and by his waiting since then has
given the allies chance to reach the
pink of preparation
without revealing figures, the ex-
perts said that the allied preponder-
ance Of men and guns has been main
tanned, despite the fact that the Ger
mans could draw men from the east
lines because Of the Russian collapse.
Some high American army men had
begun to doubt that the Germans real
" intended to make an offensive on
the west line, They thought he either
intended to wait until he was pushed
to it by home developments or other
events or to make smash in Italy or
the balkans under the cover of the
advertising of west trent drive Now.
however. these men helice the drive is
coming. They say though, that the
German has wasted much time and
that if he DELAYS much further he viii
encounter bad spring weather and mud
dy terrain.
Asked why the allies had not IN
dertaken an offensive in view of the
German delay. the experts pointed out
that all the allied lines are so dispos-
ed that they probably can convert q
German smash into an allied victory.
