NEW YORK,-There Is patriotism
N behind the twist and turn that
fashion has taken regarding the
knitted sweater.
We not only must conserve wool, but
we wish to do H. One Of the supreme
achievements OF the people OF the coun-
try during the war has been their happy
readiness to do what the government,
has asked OF them, Never let that be
forgotten in the history of the United
States There has been 10 rebellion,
except In isolated and peryerse cases.
and there has been a willingness TO twist
and turn, TO save and experiment. when.
ever plaeard. a poster or a decree
from Washington came out with a Jew

Therefore, when women were asked
to conserve wool. there was not an
instants hesitation on the part OF all
those who make and wear clothes,

Fashions Stamp on Conservation.
The council of national defense
showed ts~Shrewdncss when it went
to the makers OF fashion to ask their
assistance in the conservation of wool
When the great houses that put their
labels in garments which proclaim
themselves the last word in style de-
creed that the request of the govern
ment should not only be met, but that
even more could be done than was
asked, at that very moment a million
or more women took the matter up
with the violent enthusiasm usually
given to brand new fashion.
No one has suffered Everyone has
benefited, including those who sell
clothes In the light of this situation,
the woman who was found knitting
sweater for herself, and not for war
relief work, became at once the target
