3 Crop While Male Harvest
I ers Are Fighting in France.

One of the most romantic battles
OF the Great War was not fought on
the other side OF the Atlantic: men
had only a part in it not shot was
fired: the people for whom the
battle was fought were half a world
away
Yet this battle was won without
the loss OF a single life and with In
calculable profit to humanity.
Its detectives were the millions of
bushels OF wheat from the fruitful
acres which are the broad bosom OF
Kansas: the fighters who harvested
the grain were women girls, chill
dren and men. The enemies were
the elements, fire, air and water:
the nations for whom the battle
was waged were starving Belgium.
France. Engiand-aIl of friendly
Europe. in fact-and our own
Americans over there.

Medieval Corselets
In Contrasting Colors

The designers do not find it necessary to
match these medieval corsclcts to the rest of
the costume. They often make d brilliant
contrast in both fabric and color. Matelasse
Is an admirable material for them when the
rest of the suit is of plain, sober stuff.
There are other coats that hang in loose
lines, with deep, pear-shaped holes, belts
put below the waistline, and long wastcoats
resembling those worn by Louis XIV. These
are extensively worn by the smart women in
France and are Of exaggerated length.
One of the best French models shown this
month has such waistcoat that reaches lust
to the point of the knees and is fastened in a
straight line from there to the chin
Starting out with the foundation stone Of
the new Paris fashions, which are based on
the conservation of other materials than wool,

The poplin coats, as we'll as those made of

century tunes, and the waistcoat blouse that
