Land Girls Winter Outfit.

The land girls winter outfit mas been
exercising the attention Of the Lon
don ladies' tail0fs. Throughout the
summer months the girl who works on
the land has presented very smart
appearance In her fresh white tunlc
and knee breeches of khaki DRILL. The
coming colder weather, however, de-
mands something more substantial
than drill, and the land suit of khaki
corduroy Is the latest vogue in agri-
cultural uniforms. Pockets, except as
q decoration, have played o very minor
part In feminine fashions for some
years now, but the tailOrs report that
the land girls insist upon full equip
ment Of big workmanlike pockets in
breeches and tunics. The women war
workers are very particular about the
cut Of their uniforms and the outfits
now being turned out BY the tailors,
h Del1gtt10n u workmanship and I'm
::sh, compare very well with the most
yxyensive creations OF fashion.

ploSment to every hand that can be en-
gagged, and factory workers. clerks and
business men are Joining in this ,indis-

At AK strange story was told of

forth one evening and, reaching a not
far distant canal, he threw in his hand
grenade. No doubt it killed fish or

he on bis job that he had not noticed

blew the barge and the bargee and

such mighty damage to. boat and boat

discovered, ps he would inevitably be.
