Here is a neat and attractive suit for the cooler days of late summer. It is fine grade of gray jersey with wool embroidery trimming the pockets and edging the collar and the front of the coat. Although rather more decorated than most walking suits, it IS evidently meant for that purpose since heavy oxfords with military heels are worn with it and dark gray woolen ribbed hose.

CHANGE IN TACTICS
 URGED IN CAPTURED
 SECRET HUN ORDER
Republican A. p. Leased WIreJ

WITH THE BRITISH ARMY IN FRANCE, Aug. 13.-A captured enemy secret order signed "Ludendorff" lays stress on the necessity of ecoromizing men. The order asserts that the two clements essential to the future con- duct of the war are to maintain every where our fighting strength and the spirit of offensive" The captured docu- ment was issued late in June.
 Tt is essential,'' says the order. that all commanders of whatever rank, as well as all troops, should be immediately imbued with the idea that the war cannot be won by a stub born defense, but only by further succession of vigorous attacks. These attacks. however, cannot lead to vic tory unless we adhere to and improve on the methods of warfare adopted in the recent offensives."
 Success at Small Cost
 The order then goes on to say that everywhere under the well-tried prin- ciples of the manual of infantry train ing in war and the additions made by inc high command, namelya von Hin denburg, and Ludendorff, success had been gained at small cost. It cites as an example the operations southwest of Noyon from June 9 onward.
 Not only is there a probability of obtaining other successes by these methods, but also the situation in re- gard to endorsements compels us to perfect them still further" the order continues. Tt is absolutely essential that we should avoid our old fault of attacking in too dense formations and We should reduce our casualties by every possible means. The necessity holds equally good for the defensive fronts. The divisions must do their utmost to reduce casualties to the ab- Solute minimum by a distribution in depth and the creation of extended out post zones.
 Must Avoid Unhealthy Fronts
 Notwithstanding instructions" the crder points out, too much attention still is paid to the possession of ground the holding or retaking of portions of trenches, villages and woods, and to fighting for points whose only value is that of prestige. Now, more than ever, divisions in the line during hostile attacks, large or small, must. if pos sible. employ elastic avoidance on so- called unhealthy fronts.'
 The order is frank in explaining that because of the reduced German strength, it frequently will be impos slble 10 hold continuous trench lines
 The document warns commanders that should the enemy obtain a foot hold within the German lines they must consider carefully whether a countor-attack is necessary.
 Another captured order informs the German regiments that they must provide the town defenses against low. flying allied airplanes as the German aircraft resources are so low that they cannot be expected to fight off the enemy while they are engaged "on re. connaissance work"
