First Call To Home Gamers.

Can all you can, in any way you can
at any time you can. urges the Wo-
mans Home Companion, who says in
the May number:
There was unpatriotic rumors last
fall that the whole canning effort was
a failure. A woman. trained and ex-
perienced in domestic science, follow
ed up these reports Of spOilage, travel
ing from one end of the country to the
other, and she found the enormous
amount Of canning done by American
women successful beyond all eXpecta-
ton.
Last year was a splendid begin
ming; but We must make a bigger bet
ter record for 1918 The need for con-
serving food is even greater, and
there must be an increase. While the
earth is warm and gardens and fields
are producing food, we must provide
for the cold and hunger of>winter.
Millions of glass jars were manu-
featured, sold, and used last season.
These jars will now be standing, clean
and empty, in rows on closet shelves
all over the country Every one that
is filled again will be ammunition to
help win the war. Though the war
were suddenly ended, the need for food
would be just as great
Let no one do less than last year
Raise, can and dry, dry and can
what YOU can raise-for yourself, for
your family, and for your neighbor
who will need help. Use all the gar
den produce that is required for the
daily table, BUT NO MORE, and pre-
serve the rest for future use by any
method that is safest and most con-
venient to you"

Republic Tomorrow.

Gladys Brockwell has few equals
among photoplayers as a pOrtrayer of
emotional roles and in THE Devils

which will be shown at the Republic
Theatre tomorrow, she appears at her

noblewoman whose force of circum-

of the Paris underworld, her acting

to an Apache den in the Mont Marie.
During the struggle which takes place

struck on the head, with a resulting
loss of memory.
She forgets all her past, becomes a

love with the head of the gangsters.
Accidentally coming in contact with
a man who had killed her father, she

,!0UnLY CHANCES
IN SKIRT STYLES
Garment Takes on New Curves
at Different Times of
the Day.
TUNICS' AID TO NARROWNESS
France Decides on corsetless Figure;
America Compromises With Loose
Drapery from Shoulders
to the Hips.

New York.-A woman should give
OF the spring skirt. 1t does not change
from day TO day, but from morning TO
afternoon to evening, writes promi-
nent fashion correspondent.
One can sum up the whole situation
by saying that a woman begins straight
in the morning and is on the bias in
the evening. When she appears on
be as straight as the path Of life laid
out for us by the Bible. There must
not be a deviation in the way of a
flare, a ripple or a ruffle. The skirt
may go in a bit at the ankles, but that
is not required by fashion. 1t must
look like a straight bag dropped from
the waist line.
In the afternoon the skirt begins TO
waver from the straight line. 1t takes
unto itself a tunic, which is attached
to 1t or begins at the waistline. This
tunic has a ripple and a flare, but its
slenderness is achieved through its
flexibility. The material is soft, and
therefore the skirt swings to and from
the figure with a good measure Of
grace.
In the evening the skirt drops all
pretentions to straight lines. 1t be-
comes more slender than ever through
widths of material wrapped around the
figure after the manner Of the ancient
Egyptians. The cloth may go to line
above the knees in its wrapping, and
leave narrow plated ruffle that rests
over the ankles and heels, or the wrap
ping may begin below the bust and
continue to the ankle with a loose end
or two or three of them, left floating
on the floor to serve as trains.
Wrapped Skirt is Distinguished.
There Is no doubt that 2 struggle
for supremacy will come between the
two fashions. The wrapped skirt will
not be content to be limited to evening
usage ; it wants to appear on the street
in modified measure, in cloth cos
tunes.
Already one hears IT said that the
coffee-bag skirt will not last through
the summer 1t is not an admirable
model for thin materials, such as pom
gee, extra fine serge, and the new
worsted that is expensive but ultra
fashionable ktpd of worsted that
was invented in France, and has the
appearance OF coarse-meshed thin An
CORA.
The plated skirt is substitute for
this coffee-bag SKIRT, but unless it is
done by machinery 1t is not acceptable,
and women are not altogether enthu'
Elastic over the continuance Of straight

YOUNG AMERICA, A
DISCIPLINED NATION.

The benefits which young Ameri-
cans are receiving through their
course in military training are several
fold more in the lives of the men and
in the course the country pursues
after the war
The most immediate benefit accru-
ing 10 them, OF course. is physical The
standard of physical manhood in this
country has already been raised con-
siderably in the past year, and it will
be raised still further in the next year
or more The outdoor life, with regu-
lar habits OF eating. sleeping, and ex-
ercising, correct diet, not to speak Of
refraining from some of the eneryat-
ing practices rather common to our
modern time, il adding vigOr TO the
lives of those who escape injury or
death in battle.
But if anything the mental discip-
line they are receiving will be OF still
greater benefit and exercise great in
fiuence in shaping post war condi-
tons. The average American youth
has not had much use for discipline of
any kind. He has been strongly indi-
vidualistic, with little regard for an
cient or established things The most
appealing heroes of our short stories
and musical comedies are the most
unconventional and tradition defying
TO reverence nothing has been pretty
much of a young tendency for idler
heads to take some pride in the fact

PAULINE FREDERICK AT
COLONIAL TOMORROW.

Pauline Frederick in a magnificent
and powerful film version of Victorien
Sardou's famous opera LA Tosca,"
will be the superb attraction at the
Colonial Theatre tomorrow, matinee
and evening. There doesn't seem 10
he any star on the screen today who is
better fitted to play the heroine of
Sardou's la Tosca" than Pauline
Frederick. The story of Fl0ria Tosca
is probably known to every lover of
opera and romance in the country
and the part of the young Roman
peasant with o the marvellous voice
gives the beautiful star a wonderful
opportunity for the display of her re-
markable emotional ability. The love
story of La Tosca and Mario, the
young artist. with its tragic ending,
makes a high class Paramount pro-
ductiOn.
Pauline Frederick is undoubtedly
wonderful in her portrayal of the role
of La Tosca; her work is that of a
finished artist. Her support is an un-
usually excellent one with Frank Lo-
see as Scarpia and Jules Rancourt as
Mario.
La Tosca" is a picture of the high
est standard. and one you can't afford
to miss Holmes Travelogue also,

duced as TO all shipments made after

This order shall in no way affect
the increase contained in the Execu-
tive Order of the President, dated Oc-
/ tober 81, 1917, adding the sum of AZ
cents to the prices fixed for bitumin-

ions set forth in said aforementioned

The reduction will mean an annual
saving to consumers of "a sum esti-

ment price for coal. The increased
cost of railroad fuel thereby occasion
ed is also estimated at $60,000,000 pei

ton on all coal will, however, reduce

from $60,000,000 per annum TO S45,

The priciple of equal car supply has
accordingly been adopted so as to
make for rs steady an operation as
possible of all properties and for con

making for maximum output
The introduction OF the principle of

eral average overhead of mine Oper-
alton, thereby justifying the Admin

mine prices thus fixed will remain un-

Administrator has before him the cost

Compromise wi.1 the Tunic.
Judging from the multiplicity OF
TUNES that have sprung up into he
spring clothes. there is little doubt
that the ungarniShed. plain. tight skirt
is deplored by the dressmGkerS.
This is true in America as well as
in France, and one makes that state
ment with a boastful feeling today, for
the American houses and designers
have done far-reaching ana serious
work this year. They have taken Il
stand that Is important. What they
have devised in Clothes is sufficiently
brilliant TO give them hopes for the
future
So when women realize that the
American as well as the French dress
makers have insisted upon tuRics as
an Offset TO the straight narrow skirt
they see that this kind of drapery is
an accepted fashion. and they grasp at
1t eagerly, if their figures are not at
their best in the limited amount OF
straight material that the tailored suits
offer.
These tunics are diverse in shape,
coloring and ornamentation. They. like
sleeves, are produced in such variety

1t as an underskirt, fashioned after the
Alexandrian manner, to serve as a
mere foundation to a tunic Of ferilllant

for a whole skirt. Therefore, the
chances are that the wrapped or

and creep into the clothes that are
worn at 10 o'clock in the morning, as
well as dominating those that are worn
at night.
