Having undertaken the wearing of pajamas women proceeded to feminiZe them. They have developed these sen sible sleeping garments into many dainty conceptions of the original and have produced, in the process, attrac- tive new sleeping garments that are n"ither paiamas nor nghtgowns
 ' here are one-piece and twO-piece pa Jdmas, pajamas with slipover manda- ria coats and others with short jackets like that shown in the picture. Wash &atin, crepe de chine and geOrgette go to make up these very modern concep- lions of the originally plain and prac- tical pajamas They are called boudoir pajamas; those with jackets or man. darin coats proving the most dignified and becoming of the several designs.
 If one determines upon silk for sleep- ing garments the soft texture of wash satin and crepe de chine, and the sheer ness of georgette along with their dainty colorings, are sure to inspire gay and frivolous affairs like that shown in the picture. Nearly all the boudoir paiamas, however, are less fanciful than these which exaggerate the style in order to call attention to It. The pantalettes are of plain satin with crepe georgette set in at the sides between front and bac& pieces tied to-

LOSS OF GROUND CAUSE OF HEAVY
 ARTILLERY FIRE
Germans Attempt to Hit Back at French in Champagne Af- ter Rain of Shells-Aerial Ac- tivity is Intense.

London, Feb. 18.-Stung in their pride by the loss of positions to the French through the aid of the Ameri- can artillery, the Germans last night tried to hit back in the Champagne sector, southwest of the Butte Mesnil. After violent rain of shell they sent a strong detachment of raiders for ward. These succeeded in their initial assaulting in breaking into the French lines and for q while retained their foothold. Then the French came back in sharp counter thrust and threw the invaders out again, taking some prisoners.
 North of the Aisne and on the Verdon front, the German big guns are keeping up steady lombard ment of more than average intensity. On the Arras front, the British re- pelled a German raid. Portuguese troops took some prisoners in a raid near Neuve Chappelle. The German artillery is active around Lens and on the Zonnebeke road A German flyer was shot down on the Flanders front. Aerial activity has been in- tense during the last IS hours and continues.
 In preparation for the coming drive, the German munitions industry is working at fever heat In Bavaria, according to a statement by the Ba- varian war minister, munitions plants will hereafter be kept at work on Sunday.

gether with satin ribbon bows. The short jacket of satin has sleeves of plaited georgette ending in a rullle with n ribbon band above it. The collar is of ribbon heightened into tie ends that are knotted in front.
 Nothing less colorful and fine than bedroom slippers of ribbon would do to wear with the magniicence of these pajamas and they are hardly to be imagined without an attendant cap of lace and ribbon. These cXtravagant luXuries require accessories to match themselves in daintness.
 Few paiamas are so elaborate. Pan talettes are usually straight and full and gathered into rullle about the ankle. Coats or jackets are bordered with satin or crepe in contrasting color. Sometimes narrow lace edges the collar or the fvills at the ankle and sometimes hemstitching is the only decoration. Flesh, pink. light blue, maize and orchid are the favored col ors. White satin bordered with black appears occasionally among the dis plays and there are pajamas with coai that have long sleeves.

Our Missing Soldier Boy.

One of the most perplexing incidents
Of the war to this community has been
to get any information concerning Pri-
vate Rollin Livick, Co. d, 28th Inf,
whose last letter written from France
was dated July IL. His parents were
notified by the war department of his
having been wounded in an engage
ment near Scissors. Since then all
efforts through ordinary channels, such
as letters to his commanding officer, by
cable and through the Red Cross, to
gain further information have been
fruitless until recently through the
surgeon S office IN Washington a record
is found which states ''Rollin Livick,
PIT. Co. D, 18th Inf, was received at
advanced dressing station July 20 with
gunshot wound in lower jaw where he
received first aid. No further record"
1t is possible that hospital records may
yet throw some light upon the missing
boy, or it may be that he was among
the patients of a bombed field hospital
and entirely obliterated. The anxiety
of his parents to gain more definite in
formation can scarcely be described.
Rollie was member of the original
Edgerton platoon which trained at
Waco, Texas, and went overseas with
Co. M, 128th Inf He was one of the
most popular members of our high
school football team and general fav
orite in the community. His friends
have not yet given up all hope that our
missing soldier boy will yet be account
ed for and alive.

compassion
There are the Little Children who have gone to

going have given their ALL Can you do less? Shall
you keep from your boy or your neighbours boy that

lecting the call of the Red Cross Mother?
Then there the uncounted Little Children

tense of their home fires. Who but the Red Cross
Mother can know the suffering, the anguish, OF the
shell-torn, thrst-sricken soldier who lies upon the
ghostly bed of No Mans Land? Will you deny him
the life-giving cup?
Think also of the Little Children of devastated

but none the less Little Children" in their helpless
ness-their abject need. Can we in our plenty with
hold from them the bare bread of existence? Can

know that there no others?
The Red Cross helps who does not need

Therefore, let give, give until we feel it, give until
it pinches. Then and only then we shall know that
we have indeed offered the Little Children" of the
