Women are showing in their clothe,
that when they work they must dres
accordingly. Hence the new demand
for uniforms.
Everywhere women are adapting
uniforms as an answer to the vexing
question Of what shall wear TO
workg" The suits of the women con-
ductors, women farmers, signal corps
girls, and the recently adopted uniform
of the Young Women's Christian Asso-
ciation all point to a new simplicity
and beauty in clothes for women in
this country.
The Y. w. G. A. has designed a uni
form peculiarly adaptable to the needs
OF a woman in business. 1t is a uni
form that combines common sense and
utility with undeniable style. It is
already known in France for overseas
work.
The coat IS finger length and belted.
with big Kitchener pockets that are a
JOY. There is also an inside safety
pocket. The insignia-Y. w. C. A.
STITCHED on black bar within a blue
triangle, Is embroidered on the sleeve
ana on the shoulder. The skirt is
plain, full at the back and belted with
silt pockets. 1t hangs seven inches
from the floor A black tricorner hat
OF SILK with a velvet facing is adorned |
with the insignia embroidered on a |
French blue grosgrain band. SIX ard
velvet have been used to conserve
wool. The color of the uniform is soft
grey-blue. An ulster goes with the
suit in cold weather.
The 7. W. C. A. in advocating sens,.
Die dress for women does not think il
advisable at this time for women in
me business world as a whole TO 90
INTO uniform. But the Association
loes suggest that girls and women for
ne duration of the war dress with
simplicity and economy as their first
consideration. The present tendency
u the times to put all war workers
lirectly or indirectly connected with
ne government, into uniform is sure
0 nave a lasting effect in fashioning
more sensible standard for dressina
or the business girls throughout the
Ountry. {

ALASKA'S NED OF FULL HOME.
 RULE URGENT

WASHINGTON, May 22.-Never, in the opinion of Charles A. Sulzer, delegate from Alaska, was the need of full home rule for Alaska more clearly shown than in the fight now being made against the bill "to regu- late the killing and sale of certain game animals in Northern Alaska" " Here is a matter in which hundreds of Alaskans are interested vitally, and with the conditions surrounding which they are thoroughly familiar. They are more interested in the preserva- tion of the game of Alaska than any other people in the world, and they have more deeply at heart than any one else the desire for proper laws regarding the killing and sale of the big game of the territory, the dele gate points out; yet great pressure Is brought upon congress by gun clubs and others of the States, who do not know conditions in the North, urging the defeat of the game bill which was introduced by the representative Of the people of Alaska at the request of his constituents. And there is a possibility that this interference may prove disastrous. If Alaska had full home rule this matter could be han dled by the territorial legislature, without interference; and laws could be enacted for Alaska by legislators of Alaska in accordance with the wishes of the people of Alaska.
 This is but one instance of inter- ference in Alaska matters by out siders. Few bills ever come up in congress pertaining to Alaska that do not meet with serious opposition from outsiders who think they know con- ditions in the North, but who, in fact, have only the most vague idea of the people. the country, the business, the life and the needs of the terri tory.
 Such interferences make the dele gate more and more determined to secure for Alaska such home rule that the people of the territory will have the power to make such laws as will be suitable to the country, and he believes they are more capable of enacting legislation pertaining to their own affairs than any congress could possibly be, and more capable

Another good effect that home rule would have on the territory, MT. Sul- ger points out, is that the people will realize the importance of sending their best citizens and most able men to the legislature. The capable men will be more willing also to assume the burden of office, even though at a loss to themselves, realizing the importance of having men in the legis- lature who are in a position to draw up and enact into law such acts as will best serve the interests of the territory.

 Washington, June Withdrawal by Secretary Baker of his opposition gave fresh imetus today to consider ation for the proposal before congress to extend the draft age limits so the war department will have available, at no distant date, ample man power to carry out President Wilson's pro- gram of an army of unlimited size.
 Officials in the office of Provost Marshal General Crowder immediate ly began preparations of statistics showing results which might be ex- pected if the draft is extended to va rious ages between IS and 45 years, the limits fixed in a bill by Senator France of Maryland, republican.
 Early reports of the reclassifica- tion of men by local boards indicate more than 250,0O0 men will be added to Glass by this means, as against the original 100000. Operation of General Crowder's work or fight reg ulations, which become effective next July 1, also is expected to add to the

total. Each district is expected to have near the national average of 28.7 per cent, of it's total registration in Class when the reclassification has been compleed.
 The contention that there is no inn mediate necessity for changing the age limits is not shared by General Crowder, who recently told the senate military committee that extension of the age limits was necessary because the planned rate of calls Class would be exhausted early next year.
 Announcement of different rulings on what are to be termed useful em- ployments under the work-or-fight regulations will probably be made Lefore the end of the week. It is un- derstood baseball will be classed as sport, but that the opinion has provis-
 
 ions to guard against interference with professional league schedules this season.
 Draft officials found it difficult to decide whether chauffeur was en- gagged in useful occupation. They probably will come under the same regulations as domestics.
 The governments ultimatum that loafing would not be tolerated during the war already has caused improve ment in the labor market and a de- crease in the number of vagrants and other idlers.
 MT. Baker said today that the only reason for his having hesitated to submit recommendation to congress as to the extension of the draft ages was desire to learn the resulting eff feet upon vital industries of the coun- try.
 The war secretary indicated any recommendation he makes on the sub ject will include reiteration of his original proposal that 19 years be made the minimum limit. MT. Baker has never voiced an opinion as ti, the proper maxirnum limit since his first suggestion bf 26 years was red ted by congrebs
