NICTORY dresses, victory hats. VIC
tory garments Of all descriptions
in victory colors-this Is the keynote
OF early spring fashions and already
evidenced in the gay and gorgeous at
tire accepted for the gay and gor-
geous entertainments of midwinter
There isn't any one type of victory
dress, or victory hat, or any other
garment that predominates. for the
word victory as now applied to
woman's dress Is more an expression
than an actual description OF some
one particular feature Of fashion.
And the same is true of victory as
used to identify a color or colors, for
no one color or set of colors has
come that the word victory can ade-
quately describe.
Rather is the word victory best I'm
derstood when one comprehends that
this is a day of gay color and that
the word victory Is f1ttingly described
and embraced in all the gay, happy
riot of color that is just becoming the
chief feature Of interest in new
clothes.
Many new, interesting and pleasing
colors have been introduced under the
title of victory color, but it does not
seem as if any one color will pre-
dominate in popular acceptance over
the other new colors.
My impression is that all new,
bright and becoming colors that are
harmonious and artistically correct
WIN meet with favor, for women are
fast coming to know that not every
good color is their color and they do
color effect by accepting and using a
color just because it is fashionable.
And this is as it should be and does
not inflict any hardship on any one,
but rather works to advantage com
mercially and makes for a more pleas
ing and interesting picture or piano.
ramic view when many women are
congregated together
But this intelligent use of color does
much more than this; it makes for
that individuality of dress that brings
out the best in every woman and per
mits Of that self-expression that is sc
essential to mental development ant
heart happiness, and which with many
women Is not possible through any
other wholesome avenue than dress.
AS 1 write I can hear the com
ments. contrary to this thought, tina
exist in many minds; nevertheless
stand on my contention that dres
can be and is made a wholesome ave
nue., a legitimate medium, for a self
expression that is desirable, yes, nee
essary, for the welfare of man.
women.
Like many other habits, customs o
practices Of civilization it is nos tn
use but the abuse of dress, of fashion
that harms and hinders humans.
Teach the intelligent, artistic use o
clothes to women and there will b
little need to worry over the abuse
of fashion,

AYMEN OF SOLDIERS

To The Several State Councils of
Defense and State Divisions of the
Woman's COMMITTEES: We direct your
attention to a recent order of the War
Department which provides that any
soldier who Is temporarily separated
from his complete service records (by
reason Of absence from his own com
pany In hospital or otherwise) shall be
paid in full at the time of discharge
upon his own affidavit.
The text of the order (Circular No.
14S of the. Adjutant Generals ofice)
is as follows:
Il. When enlisted men who are
without records of service are ordered
discharged they will be discharged on
supplementary service records and pay
cards and paid in full including travel
pay. The supplementary service rec
ord and pay card will be based on af-
idavits sworn to by the soldier, each
soldier will be informed that false AT.
fdavit makes him liable to prosecution
for fraudulent claim and that any ar
rears in pay due to lack OF informa;
ton may be obtained by making claim
to the auditor for the War Depart
ment."
We believe you should the
above order to be given general pub
licity since a widespread understand
ing of the action Of the department
will be distinctly gratifying to soldiers
and their dependents.
Very truly yours,

Director of the Council and of the
Field Division.

Y. w. c. A. NOTES

The II. S. Club held it's regular meet
ing Thursday, Jan. 9. Miss Miriam
Gerlach, dean of at the col
lege, spoke on What 1t Means to be
a Girl in 1919" She emphasized the
responsibilities and opportunities Of
the girl today and showed that every
girl should decide while in high school
what her life work is to be and bend
every enegy toward fitting herself for
that work. The government is seeing
the need Of vocational training and
guidance by the enactment OF the
Smith-Hughes bill. She closed by
enumerating a large number of voca-
tons possible for women This was
the first of a series Of vocational meet
ings that are planned. The ones fol
lowing will take up certain vOcatlons
and show just what training is neces-
sary, what the cost is and what the
best schools are as well as what the
girl may EXPECT in return both in
money and satisfaction.
