be held under the auspices of the al
lied war activities of Knox county
and the Chamber of Commerce and II
is expected that this meeting will be
the first step towards a larger meas
ure of cooperation on the part OF
these various activities.
President Robinson said: THE
fact that this meeting is to he held
under the auspices of the allied war
activities of the county is especially
significant at this time. For some time
past many of those in charge of the
various activities have, felt the need
for larger CO operation and co-Ordina-
tion of the working forces. 1t should
be of interest to every person In the
county to know that this question has
for some time been receiving the ser
iOus consideration of those in charge
of the different activities with the
end I'm view of adopting some more
efficient plan of organization. While
in the minds of many we are not yet
ready in Knox county for war chest,
| believe that there is very general
feeling that we have reached point
where we must work out systemat-
ic well cO-Ordinated organization
extending into every township in the
county that will enable us to secure
quick and efficient action in whatever
lines of war activity we may be call
ed upon to carry on from time to
time"

BLESS TWO SERVICE
FLAGS AT CATHOLIC
CHURCH ON SUNDAY

Two service flags, one containing
60 stars and the other as stars, were
blessed at st. Vincent de Paul's
Catholic church Sunday evening. The
flag containing the 60 stars was that
of the school, while that with 40 stars
was the service flag representing the
men from the local parish who have
entered the service of the United
States A red cross on each flag rep

FRIlL EPOCH FOR
CHILDREN'S Wear
IFr0Cks Now ACcentuate the Fem.
mime Note in Charm of
Little Girls.
TOUCH OF MILITARY ALLOWED
Butterflies and Rosebuds are Used for
EmbroideTy--Colored Sashcs Re-
turn-Short Sleeves Are a
Prime Favorite.

New York.-Do not take the fashion
of chidrens clothes for granted. DO
not fall into the error of going ON the
/ old methods. There is as much ebb
and flow in the tide of juvenile cos
tumery as in adult, so watch StraWs
and then go with the current, is the
advice of Il prominent fashion writer.
Patterns cannot be handed down
from one child's wardrobe to another.
What was worn last season is usually
out of the picture by the time the new
season begins.
Things were not always according
to this schedule of variation. For cen
turtles children We're dressed alike.
Glimpse backward over the portraits
THAT hang in our museums to prove
this. The torturouS clothes that were
put Oh infants three centuries ago Will
most probably make the modern wo-
man, filled to the eyes us she is with
the schedules Of hygiene and santa
tion, want to scream aloud ut the mis-
cry that was inflicted.
Even the wooden sabots and long
full skirts of the small Dutch girl
with her white rabbit stirs in the
mother Of the moment violent feel
ing Of reform. We erieve far more
for the discomfort OF the young man
than for the actual grief of the old.
AS near to nudity as the law allows
has been the modern Interpretation of
children's clothes, and we have felt
that by hardening their legs and arms
through constant exposure in the for
native years, we are handing them a
talismnn against weakness and dis
ease I'm the settled seasons of life.
The elimination of the garter that
binds, the corset that restricts, the
skirt that hampers, tn" sleeves that
cover, the shoe that pinches, has aided
the doctor ana the teacher.
Touch of Military.
Does your particular memory GO
back 10 thc days when to dress Il boy
child ps Il Highlander was to prove
yourself in the fashion? The swaggei
Of the Gordons was not even omitted
| from the clothes for small girls. Scotch
b0nnets We're as common among chill
| dren as they are now among men.
Whether or not it brought the pas
siOnate and rebellious shame of Pen
rod, plaid kits were placed on boy
whose faces burned with indignation

Entirely demure and feminine is the
effect Of this pink.and-blue flow
cred muslin frock. The fichu Ia OF
white orsandIe; the glrdle Of blue
taffeta fastened With pink rosehvds.
The hat is of blue straw, with deep
ruffe Of taffeta and pink rose over
left ear. Long velvet loop finishes
the Kate GreenaWay picture.
the plaid sashes from Scotland and
Naples and Rome, the short black
coats, the multiple pockets, are evil
dences that war has thrown Its shad-
Ow downward to the cradle.
Adopting Fashions Of Age.
Between the nursery and middle
youth there Is mass of children that
must be. dressed well throughout the
hot season, and for these the design
ers have turned out enough fashions
to supply the demand Of continent
of grownups. They smack Of sophis-
tlcation, some of them, and are taken
directly from the clothes of their ell
ders.
There is the surplice bodice, the
Martha Washington collar which re-
sembles handkerchief. the patent
leather belt, the umbrella skirt and
the short sleeves-which, after all, age
has merely pilfered from youth this
spring.
| There are still touches of an older
war In the retention Of the top hat
nnd cape coat In two cOlors, which was
ADOPTED from the directoire and the
consulate, after the designers could
not force them upon women with any
degree of success last winter
The Organdie frocks, which spring
like mushrooms from Bar Harbor to
the Florida coast this year, ere found
to be admirable for youth when 1t Is
parading itself in the afternoon. 1t
goes well ON even the smallest girl
1t Is chosen In colors AS well as white,
and now that colored ribbon sashes are
revived by old and young, the organdie
takes on the atmosphere of the flow
cry part of the nineteenth century and
fits into the landscape rs the sporI
clothes never do.
Grown-Up Fashions In Miniature.
1t Is II fact that you cannot fail tC
observe, II you have had occasion Il
study the recently produced clothes fol
little girls that some Of the styles Dor
rowed from-or, rather, suggested b!
the styles launched this spring fo
mammals clothes have done rathe

of the eton jacket in grown-up cos
tumery, true II Is that not one woman
In ten can wear 1t to advantage. II
