are planning to conscript for their

with enthusiasm and greeted with

A New Color

Blouses that are dainty want to be
colored with some equally delicate hue,
and for that very reason the brand
new color named after one of our
daintiest actresses has been launched
and called the Julia Sanderson Ca
nary" color. 1t makes its debut in a
blouse of Georgette and is pale
yellow color, much the same color
value as bisque.
The silk skirts that are worn with
these delicate blouses have as their
conspicuous feature novelty pockets,
applied in opposite way to the weave
of the skirt. There are a number of
odd shapes and many have the minia-
ture revers usually of some contrast
ing material and color.
The satin overblouse shown here
and the plaid skirt would make a
smart walking costume for spring and

model is particularly adapted to the
rather plump young girl, for the lines

VESTS OF ORIENTAL HUES POPULAR
There Many New Surprises in the Detail of the
Spring Costume

The wise one say that it is the lit
tie things that count, and Dame
Fashion agrees perfectly, for she is
giving the details of her new spring
creations particular attention. The
pet object of her attention is the vest.

The demand for negligees, especially
of flesh colored voile, is tremendous.
Perhaps no other color appeals so to
the average woman for her most init
mate garments. Wolfe is an entirely
new materialnew material for negli-
gees, and charming creations indeed
are developed from the ultra-smart
printed voiles. The lines remain about
the same, being loose and flowing and
soft at the neck. Flesh satin fashions
one which is made with a straigt
sheath. Over this fall three straight
loose panels of the same material at
the back and sides and hug the sheath
closely. The top and the sleeves are
of Georgette, and the whole might in
deed be likened to a "Midsummer's
Night Dream"

An Endeared Frlend-Ihe ONerDIOuSe
Never before have we seen so many
different styles and each so different
from the other, as now. The collars
sometimes are continued to form a
lapel and that, of course, goes outside
the coat; the vest section follows as
near as possible the line, that is the
general line, of the collar.
Materials that were heretofore I'M
known to vests are being used and
the colors are no longer subdued but
quite gay and pretentious. One of the
leading shops has one window given
exclusively to these bright colored &C
cessories, and even the buttons on
some are of daring contrasting color
An apricot one of corded silk attracted
much notice, for one could readily i'm
agine the rosy cheeks of some pretty
damsel in perfect harmony with this
refreshing shade.
Tailored Dress indispensable
With the growing popularity of
suits it had been thought that the one
piece dress would soon be termed
passe. But on the contrary, they are
more numerous than ever The tail
oring must be evn fastidious, for
one slight deviation of line might
mean the ruin of the entire dress.
The loose box-style is shown very
simple with no trimming except lit
tie embroidery at the neck. In the
fitted models side panels are used in
tunic effect, and in the bodice there
is draped treatment of fabric which
makes the tailored model interesting
There is a little indecision as to
which silhouette will be more prom
inent and the result is that there are
two distinct types of one-piece dress
for spring. One side favors the fitted

NAVY OFFICERS PAY.
Even Rear Admiral Cannot Find a
Homo Within His Means.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sir:
have read with much interest your edi-
torial article on the pay of navy officers.
In the last paragraph you comment
on rents in Washington and Annapolis,
and in that connection beg to invite
your attention to the housing situation
in the city of New York
/ have been seeking for the last two
months, without success. to find an
apartment for three adults in a part of
the city suitable for an officer of my
rank to live in and carrying a rental
within my power to pay.
The nature OF my official duties makes
it necessary for me to live in the city
and my income precludes the possibility
OF paying the rentals which are de-
manded for the one or two apartments
that have been offered. I do not think
can possibly find suitable home In
Manhattan for the coming winter. and
shall probably be forced to take up life
in two eight by ten rooms in a quasi
first class hotel.
There are a great many officers in the
navy in this district In the same pre-
dlcament in which find myself.

DEAN COWPER'S LEGS.
The Army Taught Him How to Dress
Them for Comfort.

From the Des Moines. Ia, Register.
Years ago Dean Holmes Cowper of
Drake University, after carefully study
ing portraits of men of Revolutionary
times, and, after having been presented
with a frilly black satin evening coat
by his grandmother. the property Of his
grandfather. decided the clothes that
men OF modern times wore were highly
unbecoming. also uncomfortable.
Dean Cowper firmly believed they had

He tried airing his opinions and even.
in some instances, advocated reform. He
met with little enthusiasm. He aban-
doned active work on the idea, but he
rever gave up wondering If something
couldn't be done about IT.
Then the war came along and Dean
Cowper got into uniform. Not the
least of the joys that Dean Cowper got
out of the khaki was the wearing of
lea Their leggings and knee breeches.
In March the dean was "demobilized."
He bitterly resented the long trousers

And he refuses to listen to anything

POE AT TURTLE BAYi
The Report Of n Seventh Residenc,
Of the Poet In This City.

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SUN--Sir: THE
Sun has been so generous to Poo re-
search lately that am emboldened TO
ask its assistance In tracing Poe's resi-
dences in this city.
Wo already have accurate documen-
tary evidence OF six of these. And we
are in possession of SO much circum-
stantial evidence Of his movements, en-
pigments and acQuaintances that II
seems impossible that there should have
been still one other residence in between
any two of these six But to-day I am
handed the record of statement by a
Miss Sarah II. Miller to the effect that
In her childhood she lived "in a house
facing Turtle Bay on the East River
| near the present Forty-seventh street,
and that among our nearest neighbors
| was charming family consisting of a
Mr.. Poe, his wife Virginia and his
mother-in-law. Mrs. GLENN" The &C
count is a long one and / will not
trouble you with It. But the concluding
statement is:
I'm the midst Of this friendship they
| came and told us they we're going to
move to a distant place called Fordham
| where they had rented a little cottage
feeling that the pure country air would
do Mrs. Poe a world of good"
This would place a residence near the
| foot of the present Forty-seventh street
in between the residence at 1875 East
Broadway. the premises now covered
by the fine building Of the Educational
Alliance. and the Fordham cottage. Az
we are unable to trace this Miss Miller
| may we ask THE SUMS assistance
Surely among its army of readers some
one will be able to help US locate this
one more Poe domicile.

IRELAND'S BIG VOTE.
Twice This City's, Though the Popu'
latlOn Is Less.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: 1t
IL surprising. to read that there were
100000 votes cast at the last Irish
election. When we consider that the
population OF Ireland Is about 1900, 900
VIC must conclude that the proportion
OF adults. as shown by the number of
votes recorded, is very large indeed.
The voting record Of this city. with Its
population of 10000 compares very
unfavorably with the Irish record.
Twenty years ago there were about
100 constituencies in Ireland and the
average vote cast In a constituency was
$500. The total vote cast was there
fore about $4,000. Since then the
women have been enfranchised. When
we take into account an Irishwoman's
aversion to vote an estimate Of 10000
additional will not be too low.
Moreover. great many voters looked
upon both the Sim Feiners and Orange
men as organizations leading to the
same goal, namely. that OF causing the
British Parliament to desist from en-
acting remedial legislation, and conse-
quentiy did not vote at the last election.
The carelessness exhibited by the cleo
ton officials, both in England and Ire
land, at the last election was due to
the "exigencies of state

our people. A gifted and learned gen.

an occasion more likely to inspire him
to notable utterance than the double
anniversary we are now preparing to
celebrate.
The name Of LAFAYETTE will ever
remain a guide to patriotism, to gen.
erosity, to unselfish endeavor.
At the Marine In 1914 there was
disclosed to us the real France. The
magnificent spirit of the people which
endured the defeats of the war of
1870 rose superior to disaster. We
were told that the French had de-
Perforated, had lost their stamina /;
but at the Marine FIVE years ago the
nobility and steadfastness Of the
French nation were made apparent to
all the world. .

ErTE and to ting victors of the Marine.
In them the best humanity can boast

The sun., 1919-09-06

out to solve a national problem not
as q political game but as patriotic
duty we are justified In viewing the
attempt with hope and awaiting the
result with confidence. This is TRUE,
though 1t is inconceivable that millions
of men can be compelled to do efll-
Client work or to do any work at all
against their own free will. Neither
labor nor capital can ever be re-
strained in free country under demo-
cratic government from quitting Its
job. But both can be powerfully In
fluenced to stick 1t out by public
sentiment which knows that labor and
capital are working together under a
system which Is fair to each.
Again 1t is true, though 1t is not
to be expected that railroads which
have been honestly, ably and success
fully managed to the benefit Of their
workers, their stockholders and the
public served by them will volunteer
to go into partnership with the rag
tag and bobtall of the transportation
field. Banks do not. Factories do
not Mercantile houses do not. In
dividuals do not. But for the good, Of
all, owners Of first class roads con-
ceivably will consider turning over
their properties to other hands under
an equitable and honorable arrange
ment of retirement, so to speak, from
business.
1t is to be set down here, further
more, as truth and fact that what Is
proposed for all railroads and all
railroad workers in the way of bene-
fits, to human beings and the physical
property, provided out Of excess earn
ings beyond a reasonable return to
stockholders, is nothing more, as 1t Is
nothing less, than the honestly, ably
and successfully managed railroads
have been doing for years.
And finally, If those who know the
harm the Interstate Commerce Com
mission has done the country by its
malpractice on the railroads for the
better part of a generation could wish
that the Congress programme was to
knock that unexpected body in the
head along with discredited Govern
ment operation and disavowed Gov
eminent ownership, we may even hope
for Its reform-when Congress gives
evidence Of wanting to do this, the
biggest job now before the country,
right. For, as we wait to see what
the real railroad measure Is to be,
let us not be captious about any
thing. Let US rather. If we can, be
helpful, while rejoicing that the days
of railroad scuttling promise to be
over and that again the American
people are coming into their own.

ELISHA AND THE AXE.
A Somewhat Irreverent Suggestion {,
the British Admiralty.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-Sr: We
read in the sixth chapter of the Second
Boob of Kings that the sons of the
prophets said unto Elisha, Behold, the
place where we dwell with thee is too
small for us, let us go unto Jordan and
let each man take beam, and let us
make place where we may dwell and
Elisha said, Very well, GO ahead and
I will 20 with you. So Elisha went
with them. When they came to Jordan
they cut down trees. AS one man was
telling a tree the axe head fell into the
water, and the man cried and said, Alas,
master, the axe was a borrowed one.
Elisha said. Where did It fall? And
the man pointed out the place. and
Elisha cut down a stick and cast 1t into
the water and the iron did swim. and
the man put out his hand and took II
out of the water.
The Scripture does not record the fact,
but It is presumed no returned the axe
he had borrowed. We are informed that
England has raised q large number OF
sunken ships since the war. To expe-
6its this work OF salvage expeditions
should be sent into Palestine along the
banks Of the Jordan to search for the
particular trees from which Elisha cut
that stick which had the peculiar power
of attracting sunken iron from the bot
tom. Its value for the purpose Of rails
ing sunken ships would be incalculabie.
We might even recover that sunken
German fleet. ARLINGTON II. CARMAN.
