R AINBOWS TO
COME IN MAY
Eiohtino Forty-second Division Will
Reach Home Too Late to Take
Part in Victory Loan
Drive.

limited Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON, March LITTLE
aFighting And" (Rainbow) division,
probably will be back on American
shores early in May, war department
officials said today.
It is the last of the divisions
scheduled for sailing from France in
April
Unless there is a change in plans
therefore, it will reach America too
late to participate in the Victory
loan drive.
Nevertheless. owing to its record
in some of the bitterest fighting on
the west front, the war department
will allow considerable relaxation of
THE usual plans for returned troops
and will permit parades Of the elf
ferent regiments in the various
states from which they were drawn.
The Rainbow division comprises
troops of nearly all classes from al
most every state in the union.
Following announcement late yes
terday that General Pershing had
ordered the division to prepare for
return home the war department has
been flooded with requests from all
over the country to see the men on
parade. Many of these already have
been granted.

and then for three years had a pas
torate in New York City. He has
been minister of the Central Chris
tan church in Syracuse, n. Y, for
the last four years and seems per-

Since he left here in 1904, before

of them before he leaves the city.

LEGISLATURE
Modified Public Utilities Bill intro
duced In Senate To-day
Contains Many
Features.

limited Press Leased Wire Service
DIES MONIES, Iowa, March IL
The modified public utilities commits
sion bill, which was. reported out of
committee last week, was introduced
in the senate today by Thompson OF
IDes Moines county.
The public utilities are under con-
ltrol of the railroad commission which
will be increased from three to i've
members.
The commission, however. will not
I.be appointive by the governor, as
the first draft provided. The senate
and house each appoint two members
with the fifth the governors choice.
All will serve i've years.
Petitions for changes in franchises
must be given a first hearing before
city governments before being taken
to the commission, under provisions
of the bill. The commission is barred
from nullifyins certain provisions re-
lating to extensions and service facili
ties.
Ministers clashed on the blue laws
at, the public hearing before the house
committee on police regulation late
yesterday. Dr. VIM. B. Sanford, rep
resenting the inter-church federation
of Iowa, argued for substitute bill
which the federation proposed.
Rev. VIM. e. Ostrander, pastor of
the Seventh Day Adventist church,
startled the meeting by denouncing
all Sunday legislation.
"This is a civil government" said
Rev. Ostrander, mot theocracy. The
trouble with such legislation is that
one party gets the idea it thinks 1t Is
right, and finds it easier to compel
others by law to think as they do
than to take the trouble to persuade
them to think right"
DR.. Sanford's bill was a substitute
for the senate proposal. which speci-
fed certain businesses which could
remain open on Sunday The senate
bill also allows complete autonomy
to towns in voting on Sunday laws
with respect to theaters. DR.. San
ford's bill would close all amusements
which charge for admittance. 1t was
referred to subcommittee.

of Cerro Gordo county provides that

'MAN-MADE SUITS
Garments Modelled by Male Tail
orS in Greater Demand.
Work Regarded Superior to That OF
Women, Due to Certain knack
for the Work.

"This costume is the style you want,
madame, but it Is considerably more
expensive than the one at which you
have been looking" said an assistant
at IA big shop. "Oh, yes, the material
is the same, but the cut of IL is much
better. and it is man-tailored through
out"
sentence ought to be sufficient to ex-
plain everything. and there is no get
ting away from the fact that garments
which are 'man-tailored" have u
great superiority in appearance over
women's tailoring work-and of
course. are much more expensive.
1t is not matter OF sex prejudice
or Imagination, for there are few
trades which are so fully open to wom-
en- as various branches of tailoring.
Rather Is the superiority due TO the
greater physical strength of men and
certain knack for the work which Is
natural TO some men.
Tailoring is not exactly trade
which anybody con learn" was the
opinion of a leading tailor. 'IIigh-
class tailoring Is real art, and some
men are born for 1t in the same way
that others are born to paint great
pictures. Very often the tailors gift
is hereditary from father to son.
There are three main reasons why
women tailors are inferior to men In
the work which they turn out Women
have not sufficient physical strength
to do the heavy pressing which makes
or mars garment; they cannot APP
proach men where cutting Is con-
cerned. and the general finish of wom-
ems work is not so good as that Of
men--in total effect rather than de-
tail.
Until comparatively recent years
tailoring was purely mans trade, but
now there are scores of women en-
gagged upon 1t. The bulk of wholesale
work, consisting of average price
mems suits and women's costumes, Is
done by women. so far as the actual
making is concerned. The cutting of
such garments is usually done by ma
chine.
Certainly the superiority of the
man tailored suit or costume is not
fallacy. Women can do excellent
work, but they are not such good tail
ors as men in the results they achieve.
Their work Is less definite. Moreover,
1t Is a certainty that II you took a
tailoring expert into mixed crowd
OF men and women he would unerring-
~ select which garments had been
man tailored and which were wom-
ems work."

FALL MOTOR COATS OF LINEN
Natural CoIored Material Best for
Travelng-Doee Not Show Dust
and Soil Marks.

With the return of linen to sartorlal
uses. very smart linen tailored wear
of all sorts Is appearing. Especially
good looking are some well cut linen
motoring coats for fall wear.
When one goes somewhere by auto
mobile on dusty day one of these
light dustcoats will be far more COM
Portable over dainty frock than the
new motor coat which will almost
certainly prove warm on such day.
Linen coats are shown also for au-
tumn travelling and their smart style
attracts women of fastidiOus taste.
And the fresh, indescribable smell of
them makes one recall long past child
hood days when one started some
where on a journey and wore ones
new linen duster. A coat of genuine
linen will not crumple up and look
