as to what is best for the colored
man to do at this time. In this we
take no issue with them. The
thing to which we do take excep-
tiOn is the reflection east upon the
honesty of DR.. Du Bots motives.
As we have said on another Occa-
sion, it seems to be weakness
of certain people-many of them
our own people-to impugn the
motives of every person who does
not agree with them We have
always strlven to avoid that form
OF editorial criticism because we
believe it TO be not only unworthy
but a very ignorant thing to do.
We differ with others, even as we
now differ with these critics. but
it is far from us to ascribe to them
other than honorable motives.
Abuse is not argument, though it
sometimes passes for it. You can
not make a man patriot by call
ing him traitor. Attack the
wisdom of his contention as Wig
orously as you may but don t at
tack his motives without the
strongest evidence. Otherwise
yon may do your fellow a grievous
wrong.

FIGHTING BLACK MEN

Under the above headline the
Associated Press reports that
" American Negro troops are help
ing to hold the allied line against
the fifth German offensive. They
requested the favor of being per-
mitted to take over a part of the
line of attack, though they had
been holding a piece of a French
sector for the last three months
without relief. =
We direct attention particular
Iy to the phraseology: They re-
quested the favor, etc. as though
they deemed themselves especial
ly happy to be permitted to oc-
cupy that dangerous post. 1t
merely goes to prove what we
have always maintained: that in
the essentials that go to make for
real manhood and courage, color
is no part. Virtue and valor are
no respector of persons and may
be clothed with a black skin as
well as with that of white. All
white men are not heroes, neither
are all black men towards. I'm
der similar circumstances we ven
ture they will act about alike.
Certain it is that the cause is not
in the color of the skin nor the
texture of the hair.
Perhaps what surprises his crit
les most is the willingness with
which the black man responds to
the demands of his country when
he has so many potent reasons to
sulk in his tent. His critics
judge him by themselves. They
know what they would do under

ELECT SPENCER HAVEN

that OF Spencer Haven, of Hud-
son, whom he selected to succeed
Walter Owen, now on the su.
preme bench. 1t was in no way
"a political appointment. Cover
nor Philip had dozens of more
active supporters among the law
yers of Wisconsin. Many of them
would very gladly have sacrificed
their private practices to become
attorney general of Wisconsin.
and exerted such pressure as they
could command to land the office.
Not so with Spencer Haven. He

sacrifice was made by him when

DU BOIS' CRITICS

We have re-read the Crisis edi-
torial CLOSE Ranks to see what
cause for complaint Mr.. Du Bots
has given his critics. We find
none to cause any one to throw
a fit. True, what he did say
might have been said a little DIFF
ferently, but in substance it is
what all the race papers and lead
ers have been advising ever since
this country went to war. Per-
haps we would not have used the
phrase forget our special griey-
anceS because we do not believe
it necessary to forget anything in
order to render our full duty.
We do believe, however, with
Du Bots, that we should "close
our ranks shoulder to shoulder
with our white fellow citizens, and
the allied nations that are fighting
for democracy" We believe that
this should be done because it is
our duty, as well as for the other,
more personal if less commend
able reason, that it will go a long
wG toward making America safe

ike circumstances; they know
that with them no period in their
country's history is too critical to
inaugurate strikes for more pay
and less hours. They believe that
the time to secure ones rights is
when he who withholds them has
other troubles upon his hands.
And so they marvel at the unself-
ish devotion Of the colored man.
But the Negro is built along diff
ferent lines. We sometimes won.
der at it ourselves. He is by ma
ture loyal-to others if not to self.
His entire history in this country
verifies that. Had it not been for
that blind devotion Slavery would
have ended sooner than it did. In
his relations to the country since
Freedom his every act has been
characterized by this same loyalty.
Those who know him best expect
ed nothing less than he is now do
ing Somewhere in France. So
the fact that he requested the
favor of being permitted to take
over part Of the line of attack, :"
occasions no great surprise. But
while he is willing and even an
xious to occupy posts of danger in
order to make the world safe for
democracy" he insists that those
who are here in safety and secur-
ity do something to make America
safe for himself and his loved
ones. No fair minded man will
deny the justice of this demand,
Fighting Black Men, will be
satisfied with nothing less.

BEADED NOVELTIES ARE HERE
Woven Chains for Neck Wear Among
the Attractive Trinkets Which
Have Been Imported.

Among the trinkets which have been
imported to this country and are sell
ing in various places are chains to be
worn around the neck. To say that
they are woven does not in the least
degree describe the intricacy of the
patterns and designs.
One, for instance, of electric blue
and silver beads, is woven in patches
about an inch and n half long by a
half inch wide, strung together by a
dozen or more strands of the beads, on
straight strings, these strands being,
again. about two inches in length. At
the end, for a pendant, there is a
square, dangling midway between the
throat and waist, woven in an en-
largement of the pattern displayed in
the other bits Of weaving. The pat
tern is not distinct. 1t has an elusive
way with 1t, being a design in the
SILVER with a background of the SHIN
mering blue beads.
This chain, or whatever you wish to
call il, was worn with a street gown
of black satin. The gown itself was
entirely without trimming and it had
one of those very popular and beauti-
full neck lines reaching in a straight
line from shoulder TO shoulder. This
enabled the chain to show against the
wilderness of skin for a space, and then
to appear shining against the shiny
blackness of the satin. The effect was
decidedly interesting. and the beads
held ones attention as a beautiful
jewel might have done.

FOR STREET Wear
One.Piece Dress Important Part
of the Wardrobe.
Tailored FroeIos, Not Suits, FREEDOM
mate In Fashion Thoroughfare Dur
Ing Shopping Hour.

The one-piece dress for street
wear is by far the most important
single item Of a well-dressed woman's
wardrobe. Selecting garments for wear
at home, whether for morning, after
noon or evening, is a simple task.
Making these garments is equally SIM
pie; but a woman's reputation for be-
ing well or poorly dressed depends
upon the selection Of her street appar-
ell. The suit long ago took second
place. The fact that many suit manu-
facturers have included dress lines In
their output during the past few sea-
sons helps to prove this, II any proof
Is needed. A glance at any fashion
able thOrOughfare Is another proof.
Fully so per cent of the women seen
during any popular shopping or prom
enade hour will be found CARRIED in
tailored frocks, not suits.
Each season brings out its own spe-
cIal cOlors, with navy blue always In
the lead, and this year much black
Is being worn. II Is not the dull, lus-

AMONG THE NEW SWEATERS
Sleeveless Garments Made Of Ribbon;
One With Long Ends Which Tie
In the Back.

Ribbons and laces and feminine
>graces" have been so continually linked
together In verse that one suggests the
other to the mind Of the average per-
son and In consequence the new sleeve
less sweaters made of ribbon seem the
most delightfully."- feminine Of all such
garments.
They are by no means as impracti-
cal as they sound either. and Can be
recommended both for beauty and for
warmth. The very narrow baby ribbon
in any shade can be used and with
large knitting needles one could easily
duplicate the sweaters now on sale In
the shops. Most Of them are purled
about the waist and are finished on
with bow-knots, but Of course they
could be made as elaborate or as plain
as one desired. The ribbon being SO
much heavier than the average wool,
1t requires fewer stitches, but as It
does not stretch as much as wool does
one must be careful to allow plenty of
leeway to slip 1t on over the head
Another new type OF sweater that is
proving very popular is the one with
long ends which cross In the front and
tie In a sash at the back. These are
newer than the slip-on sweaters, but
are a little harder to make. They
should be very loosely knitted. Of
course. and the sleeves may be knit
ted kimOno style or made afterward
and set IN. AS for the sweater itself
1t starts at the waist line In the back,
and is knitted like the ordinary sweat
er up to the neck. Then when the
stitches are cast of and the shoulder
knitted, the fronts are done separate
ly, adding on two stitches at every
row until the bottom is reached. and
then a narrow sash Is knitted and fas-
tened to the end. These are only
pretty when they are done in what
some people call Gin and out" stitch,
that is knit a row and purl row, so
that there are no ribs to show, and
should be done on very large needles.
Needless to say, these are made of
one of the new wool substitutes.

EXTRA WARM EVENING WRAPS
Favored Garment Folds Around Figure
and Has Double Thickness
Over Chest.

Certain economists buy a semiform-
al frock that will serve for gay hours
between four and twelve p. m. with its
own coat, which relieves them from
the purchase Of an extra evening coat,
or keeps the one they possess for use
for special occasions. This Is after all,
an extravagant trick, the critics say,
for one warm long coat should serve.
The wrap Of the hour is warm and
heavy. 1t Is no longer Of chiffon nor
does II show itself In cape form 1t
folds around the figure and has a
double thickness over the chest. Furs
are heaped on it. and. often, there Is a
return to the fashions Of Charles II
In the loose undersleeve OF fur that
comes out from the wide upper sleeve.
This idea, by tie way, Is carried out In
q few street clothes, and 1t catches the
fancy of those who abominate the
hiatus between the edge Of q haring
sleeve and the hand
And such sleeves are warm. They

A European once sair that Ameri-

classes: those who changed their cos
tunes for dinner and those who did
not. He might have added that the
divisions also existed between those
who had dinner in the day and those
who had it at night. 1t is difficult to
make a European take this statement
seriously, for he cannot imagine a CIV
ilized spot in the world where folk sit
down to heavy courses Of red meat,
vegetables, and dessert in the early
afternoon.
He does not always remember that

GOWNS. AND HATS OF WHITE
These Promise to Be Prime FaVorites
This Winter, Velvet to Figure
Prominently.

White is to have a vogue this winter.
Long white coats are-very smart in
deed. So much is white to be In evil
dence this season that smart milliners
are bringing out many hats Of white
velvet, or at least showing some trim
ming of this sort introduced here and
there. After one has left youth far
behind white needs most skillful treat
ment to be worn becO:ningly. 1t is al
ways best to subdue it wherever pos
sible with some beading or Overdrap-
ing of latticed effect.
Nothing could be prettier than the
new dinner gowns of white velvet.
They are unrelieved by any sort of or
nament. Now that well-dressed wom-
en- do not wear jewelry of any sort,
there is not even a cleaning diamond
permitted to be worn with these dead
white frOcks- No sleeves, no cOrsage
decorations and no sashes appear. One.
can readily see that only the freshness
Of youth and the most pronounced
beauty can successfully carry of a
white velvet frOck. They may be
summed up in the brief verdict: Beau
tiful-at least TO behold.
Along with the vogue Of white is
that for a combination of black and
white, always much favored, but
again a fashion demanding skillful
treatment to be successful.

NARROW SKIRT, TUNIC BLOUSE

One Of Seasons Most Popular
Garments.

AS a compromise between the coat
suit and the slim frOck which many
women choose for autumn street wear
there is a costume which may soon be
overridden by popularity. 1t consists
Of a narrow skirt and a tunic blouse
that falls below the hips and is loose
~ girded with a mOnastic cord. The
blouse has no visible fastening. 1t ap-
parently does not open. In truth some
Of them do not open.
They slip over the head and adjust
themselves with the careleSSneS OF q

banded at the waistline with yards OF
brilliant material they would be def
nitely Arabian and quite brilliant IN
effect. They do not permit a girdle
to touch them.
They have a monks cord careleSSly
twined below the waistline, knOtted
and dropped in tasselled ends at front
or side.
