A WAR-FASHION SHOW

Something new in the way OF I
fashion show was given the Other
day at a fair in Allegan County
Mich. The novelty consisted Meth
er in the styles nor in the mater
ialS, but in the general idea OF the
thing There were plenty OF al
lractivc "creatoins' but not direct
from Paris and New York" nor
even from Chicago and Detroit. All
the costumes worn were gowns
made over from out-of-date gar
ments.
Visitors reported that those
gowns were surprisingly attractive.
All OF them are going to be worn
this winter by the girls and women
who made them. and the fashion is
going to be followed widely in Al
Logan County,
1t can be followed anywhere, ad-
vantageously and without humila-
ton There is not only profit, but
patriotism and honest pride, in de
vising ways to wear out old clothes
at a time when all the new wool is
needed for the men who are fighting
the battle OF civilization. Men and
women alike can wear them with
out fear, knowing that for once the
sartorial standards are reversed.
II anybody is to feel ashamed, it
is the person who needlessly wears
brand new clothing.

(By Harvey O'Higgins)

(By Harvey O'Higgins)
When our citizen soldiers were
first gathered into camps and can
toniments in this country. there
were, of course, not enough army
chaplains to provide the new troops
with church services and religious
instruction. Camp commanders were
therefore authorized by the war de-
partment to accept, in their discre-
tion, the services of ministers who
volunteered to visit the men in the
camps and preach to them. At the
same time, all the churches, OF ev-
cry religion and almost every sect,
united to cooperate with the army
authorities in training and selecting
their best priests and pastors. min
isters and clergymen and religious
leaders to wear army chaplains'
uniforms and give their services to
the soldiers here and abroad.
Now, it has developed that some
of the volunteer camp pastors have
taken advantage OF the situation in
ways that must be checked. They
have been guilty OF "proselytizing
or circulating 'insidious propagan-
da,' and of expressing 'indiscret
sympathy with disloyal and dissat-
isfed enlisted men," The war depart
ment has accordingly decided that
within three months after July "a,
1918. the services of camp pastors
shall be limited to the properly ac-
credited camp chaplains to wear
the uniform and whose loyalty and
responsibility are known and guar
anteed.
The order barring unauthorized
religious workers from the camps
has brought protest from a small
section OF the sectarian press. al
though that order was first submit

means the elimination OF their auto
cratic, military government-that
is to say, government by an army
with one man at the head. II means,
concretely, the elimination OF Kaiser
Wilhelm, as the representative OF
that system.
The German people have got to
choose between their kaiser and Ger

or to kaiserism represented by any
other man. Germany will be de
