FABRICS may come and go, the man
ufacturers may tempt us with all
manner Of novelties. but there's one
material that holds our affection for all
times, and that Is crepe de chine.
Many Of the early gowns designed for
tho lucky ones who may run away from
billiards and play in more kindly climes
are made OF crepe de chine. In these
gowns white Is the most popular color,
though flesh pink Is also in great de-
mand
Many Of the gowns are trimmed with
wool embroidery. although bead en-
broidery in both white and colors Is
supplanung wool. Fibre silk Is also
being used in quickly worked up pat
terms OF conventional embroidery on
these dresses.
Panels are adapting themselves beau
tifully to narrow skirts on many of the
new models. or course. the sophisticated
know that panels have their reason for
being in tho narrow skirt. For panels
cover the often too scant fulness around
the hips, which Is required by the mar
row ankle width skirts.
A panel skirt solves the problem Of
having the material look right around
the waist and hips, and at the same
time appear as narrow as. you please
around the feet. The lovely crepe de
chine gown shown here demonstrates an
interesting panel feature; In fact the
Individuality of this gown lies in Its
panels.
A narrow skirt is mounted on a short
yoke with little fulness. Over this mar
row skirt fall two panels, which are at
tached to the waist by pearl buttons
Under these panels runs g four-lnch belt
which IL embroidered In midnight blue
nbrs silk.
The panels are faced with white crepe
dc chine and turn under where they
meet the hem. The lower ends are held
to the gathered skirt with white pear
buttons. Except for the closing will
white pearl buttons the back of this
dress is like the front.
The blouse Is cut with kirnono sleeves
These sleeves are loose at tho edge
where cuffs OF crepe de chine turn bach
and are held by pearl buttons.
Thin sleeves of white Georgette crepe
extend from beneath the kmona sleeve
A little row OF zig-zag embroidery IL

also outlines tho neck.

WYE have seen how the Goths, the

whole.
In 41s the ouccession of the western
smperors came to an end. In that year
the Senate voted that one emperor was
enough, that tho eastern emperor. Zeno,
should rule in the West as well as IN
the East. Zeno appointed the chier Oh
the Gothic meFcenaries AZ Patrician TO
rule for him over Italy. Though men
Of the time might have been surprised
TO realise that this was really the end OF
the empire as a whole. It proved to be
its end. Still tho old Roman laws ana
customs continued.
The eastern emperors ruled at Con-
stantinople and claimed to rule the west
ern empire also. but their power stopped
with the Adriatic sea. The lands over
which the eastern smperors reigned were
mostly creek In civilization and In Ian
suass. The events that engaged the at
tsntion of the eastern emperors were
wars with the Persians, the invasion OF
tho Huns under Attila. and ecclesiastical
sisputes within the empire.

what Rome won back in one section OF
the empire It lost in another section.
What was the reasonf
There are many reasons that might
be adduced In explanation. In the first
place, the Barbarians from whom Rome
had wrested Its land were Barbarians
no longer. From Rome they had learned
how to discipline armies and wage bat
ties successfully. Other peoples than
those Rome had conquered had come
into the lands next its territory. They
were strong and skilled in war Further
more, Rome itself. had fallen upon eyti
days within. The triumphs Of auto.

people.

Now Rome was faced by danger even
more grave. For there now came a
time when the Roman power in Asia
was cut short by force more powerful
than any that ever before had threat

What's Behind the Strike?

6PHE leadership of the strike at Seattle
is Bolshevistic. We wonder how
long it will be before those who have
followed it blindly will have their eyes
opened Here is the situation:
The wage dispute at the Seattle ship
yards was submitted to an investigation
and an award was made giving the men
80 cents an hour or $640 day of eight
hours.
This award was approved by the Amer
clan Federation of Labor.
But agitators insisted that the ship
workers should have 81 an hour and i'll
duced them to believe it.
The demand for 81 an hour was refused
and the men struck. Then sympathetic
strike was engineered and Seattle was tied
up at tremendous loss to all classes.
No workmen have ever been paid such
high wages in the history of this country
as the men in the shipyards. In some in
stances, indeed, the shipbuilding expense
has approximated graft, but the people
have submitted to it because Of the patri-
otto emergency.
But the question of wages is not alone
involved in the Seattle strike. That is Of
small consequence compared to the thing
behind the movement and the influence it
has exerted to bring about a sympathetic
strike.
A sympathetic strike is positively I'M
American. 1t invades factories and shops
where workmen are well paid, well treated
and satisfied and beckons them to idle
ness, their wives and children to suffering
and industry to stagnation.
Moreover, it deprives those having n
just grievance of the financial support Of
those workmen who would be in position
to help if not misguided by agitators of the
worst stamp to leave their work.
The sympathetic strike, therefore, is
about the worse thing that has yet been
devised by labor agitators for labor itself
a real wolf at labor's door.
And it certainly is an outrage upon the
general public.
The Bolshevistic aspects of the Seattle
CAST are INC luoSC significant, however.
HERE WE HAVE A BIT OF LEVINE
AND TROTZKY TRANSPLANTED
FROM RUSSIA TO DECEIVE AND
NIISLEAD OUR LABORING MEN AT A
TIME WHEN EVERY OUNCE OF EN-
ERGY IS NEEDED FOR RECON
STRUCTION. WHAT'S BEHIND IT?
The American people should look well
back of the strike itself and see what enc
mics Of the United States have foment-
ed it?
