FAD WELCOMED BY ARTISTS
Painted Designs on Lingerie Give OPP
portunlty for Unlimited Display
of Originality.

Now that the hard-hearted hosiery
manufacturers have decided to reduce
their manufacturing costs by cutting
out the fancy colors and startling de-
signs of the ladies' lines and limiting
the output to plain somber shades that
cannot be heard coming, that portion
of femininity hat demands novelties in
dress that fairly scream will have to
fall back on the new fad In underwear.
OIL paintings, done to suit the indi-
vidual taste, on the lingerie, each piece
to follow the same design and make up
the set, and a mosquito net Overdress
will put a s~piderweb stocking In the
shade when it comes to startling scenic
effects.
Imagine a set with a lifelike repre-
sentation of the execution Of Marie
Antoinette on the back of the corset
cover and a panoramic sketch of the
taking OF the Bastile running around
the bottom Of the underskirt, with
other sidelights of the French Revolu-
ton sandwiched in where opportunity
presents.
Possibilities? Whyl A pair of silk
ones never began to offer the posi-
bilities for effective display Of the
artistic temperament that this new fad
does. All struggling artists whose pro-
auctions are not in demand since the
war economics have put a quletus on
the picture market will rise en- masse
and call the originator of the new idea

LITTLE TERRIER IN. TRENCH
This Canine Warrior Was Not a
"Slacker," but Didn't Care to
Go over Top.

In those long lines of trenches In
France and Flanders, where Britisher
faces German, it is not all discomfort
and misery. During quiet hours we
play and joke. And we like nothing
better than some little pet-a dog or a
cat, perhaps-to care for and look
after.
Cats are not uncommon In trench
land, many of them having been born
and bred there, says Boys Life, the
boy scouts magazine. Unless a kitten
or cat Is actually taken from the
trenches, 1t makes that sector its
home, and Is fed and cared for by the
at that part. But a dog will follow
his unit about and soon becomes the
friend of all, and quite an important
being In the regiment.
Our little smooth-haired fox terrier
had taken up his quarters in a strong
redoubt neal the front. The little dog
would quake with fear on hearing a
German shell In the air, but after the
explosion would run about as before,
realizing that the danger was past.
Poor little Warrior stayed In the
trenches always. He would not follow
the men out, but would settle down
with the incoming unit. Many were
the jokes made at his expense. war
rior, old boy" a man would say, 'lf l
was you l would get a transfer to some
nonfighting mob wot never comes up,
and keep out of II well behind" But
Warrior wouldn't desert. Every time
the battalion came up to hold the line
there was the little terrier.

The French TrlcoIor.

The Trlcolor, the French national
standard of blue, white and red, d.
vided vertically, originated during the
first French revolution. In 1889 the
leaf plucked by Camille Desmoullns
In the garden of the Palais Royal be-
came a rallying sign, and green was
to be adopted as the national color;
but, remembering that green was the
color of the hated Prince d'Artois, they
rejected 1t on the following day.
They at first chose. instead, blue and
red, the colors Of the city of Paris,
and later added the white Of royalty,
that had been faithfully preserved by
the national guard. This new standard
vas adopted with enthusiasm. A few
months after taking of the Bastile,
Bailly and Lafayette offered to Louis
@XVI the three-colored cOcard as {
badge Of reconciliation with the king.
Thus the Tricolor originated as the
symbol Of the liberty Of the French
nation, and 1t continued as such even
when afterward the reconciliation"
with the king ended with his decapita-
ton.

MEN Threaten TO

When City Council at its session on
Thursday night passed the semi-month-
" payroll OF the police department,
amounting to s54S2.45, IL became ap-
parent that the much desired and long
expected wage increase Is not yet
reality. As a result the patrolmen will
receive the same wage scale as has pre-
vailed for some time.
Inasmuch as City Council in passing
their budget for the present fscsl year
had ignored the requests OF the Police
Commission 70 grant a i415So wage in
crease to the men, but had reduced the
amount asked for so that each man In
the department. received an increase OF
500 a year, the men as a riile have
been displeased. With this additional
increase stil being held from them,
threats are now being made by the
members OF the department, especially
the younger men, that they will cease
work for the city and accept positions
as guards at the many plants about this
city.
II was said today that although Coun-
Gil allowed the 500 increase in the
yearly budget. that body has failed to
pass the resolution required by law

patrolmen. That such resolution has
been requested Is shown by The records
