War and After War

For one year the Bell Telephone System,
as we'll as other telephone, telegraph,
cable and radio systems, was under con-
troll and supervision of the government
of the United States. This was war
measure, designed to give the war
agencies of the country the fullest use
of all facilities of communication.
During this time the normal develop
ment and expansion of all telephone
systems was necessarily subordinated to
governmental needs. Materials and
equipment had to be utilized first in
the construction and maintenance of
lines for war purposes Ordinary de-
velopment and expansion waited
The Bell Telephone System is making

demand for service which developed
during this period of suspension, but
some time will yet be required before
the expansion of the business can pro-
coed at normal speed.

tailored daytime models, for this

For Miss
BY Rita StuYvesant.

HHESE glorious fall days are
Offering a splendid excuse for
outdoor sports. The golf
links and tennis courts at the clubs
are crowded with people anxious to
take advantage of the delightful
weather. What sport. clothes -are
being worn. especially the new
skirts. Tinsel tone velour, softly
blended plaids with colors melting
into each other, heather wool jer-
seys and wool checks are all repre-
sented among the newest models.
"Shaggycloth," wonderful new
fabric like brushed wool, fashions
. one of the smartest sport. skirts for
autumn. 1t shows. a fine hair
stripe Of plaid running through 1t.
and is made comfortably wide. An
inverted pleat at the back gives
the added width but in no way i'm
pairs the slim silhouette. The
sport skirt is not cut long but stops
quite naively at the ankle. Big
patch pockets are finished with a
flap and button and are found very
convenient. One adds a narrow belt
for style.
Pleats are used extensively this
seaspn, and one shop is showing an
unusually attractive skirt of small
plaid block, cut on the bias and ac-
cordion- pleated a crushed girdle
of the material is the only trim
ming. If one might call it. thus.
Large plaids lend themselves
gracefully to box pleats, and
fetching skirt for golfing was lately
seen featuring an old blue blended
with the faisan. tone of brown and
clear gay tint of leaf green. The
box pleats were about three inches
wide, but one must be guided by
the size of the plaid blocks wien

you find the utmost pleasure when

reoounting how your lot Is filled
with care. But you'll find ii makes
1t harder il you fuss about your
larder, II you grumble of your cooks
provoking ways; for. though you
be prince or peasant, there is al
ways something pleasant bobbing
up in cen the darkest of your days.
And the clasp of friendly fingers
brings JOY that lives and fingers;
you will meet 'em everywhere that
you may rove, so 1t isn't always
easy to be grouchy, glum and
wheezy, when you meet so, many
little bits O. love. You may seek
some dismal stratum. hoping you
can cultivate 'em, il you really like
the creatures. we call gloons; but
you're mighty apt to stumble on
some thing, however humble that
will change the solemn shadows into
blooms. Though you long to feel
quite Whitney, why, the world will
turn all shiny (for they put gold
threads with all the gray they wove)
and, whenever you are turning, you
see smiling looks returning. for

tragic air, it is hard to sob and
