EFFECT or WAR ON
 |YOMEN'S DRzz3t; } }

With the signing of the a!inIstlc" aside their working uniforms. |. w. c. A. war workers who are not to De retained for reconstruction war serV- ice laid aside their pretty horizon blue suits. Y. M. c. A. workers, re- called from the overseas corps, gov ernment employees mustered out of service and thousands of girls in mu- milton factories are now facing a new period in women's dress. The war has changed the general trend of styles for all women.
 Comfort, with no unnecessary furbe- lows, has been the keynote of the war workers uniform. Women In war work discoyered to their great joy that they did not have tosdo much thinking about their cloths. .sUncle Sam, the I. W. c. A., Y. NJ. c. A. and the Ked Cross did their thinking for them, ana 1t was done so well that it Is extremely doubtful if the business women will ever be suited with anything less prac- tical.
 Once having been used to pockets everywhere in her skirt and In the coat of her suit, no woman will ever again be satisfied with only the make shift of a hand bag. The war taught women that pockets in their suits and dresses were indispensable accessories to comfort. A shirt waist buttoned to the throat, with soft collar and tie, rather helped a woman out of the habit of wearing low cut waist in business office. As for the girl who worked in a munition factory, sine has learned to work with her hands and to wear over alls. Tn all probability she will go on with machine work and she will not gt back to skirts while she works In q shop.
 Dame Fashion, with nearly all of hel creators in the trenches, has peer pretty much out of a job. But iron the war she has drawn wealth Of new ideas for the things that women vii wear in 1919. She has put bit of golt braid here and a frog there, stuck th' ! feather worn by popular regiment il 1 her bonnet and got her clothes on tn military lines of a soldiers uniform.
 This is the first war that has eve seen women in uniform. New ant straighter lines and a more direc simplicity in everything that womeI wear will be the first outcome of thl
 innovation in war time fashions.

Fruit of Feeble Kindness

From Kansas City Star.1
The documents presented nv
Senator Fall show President Car
rama supporting a plot of radicals
to instigate a revolution in the
United States and seize the border
states for Mexico. The absurditv
of the scheme does not affect the
motive behind it. The man who is
president of Mexico by grace of this
governm ent, who has maintained
himself through it's long forbearance
is revealed in correspondence whose
meaning cannot be mistaken.
And yet, such an outcome can
can hardly be surprising. It has
been invited by the policy of feeble
kindness which has been interpreted
in Mexico as cowardice. The ad-
ministration has totally missed the
psychology of the Mexican peopIe.
1t has dealt with them as it might
have expected to deal with a highly
civilized nation like England. The
result has been to aggravate the
conditions we were trying to correct.
Does anyone suppose that If this
Government had adoptedV a firm
stand at the outset, If 1t had shown
it would tolerate no foolishness from
Mexico, things would have come to
a pass where the Mexican president
would write letters of approval to
reds who were trying to cause a
revolution in the United States?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Wants More Darkness
By BRIGGS
To the Editor of the Telegraph:

To the Editor of the Telegraph:
1 have read many of your past
editorial items in favor of the day
light saving system. December 10,
1919, 1 read the one headed: "City
Petitions Council to Save Daylight"
OF course, the intelligence of Mr..
Elmer, Mayor Keister and all these
signers is too superior to listen to
the plea of a common mother. Why
can you not just rush these enthu-
siasts out just one hour earlier in
stead of changing the clocks all over
the land?
Certainly would like to see these
signers be mothers of from six to
ten children. No doubt after while
the country will not need true
mothers as a means of multiplying
the population.
True mothers and children's well
fare are not considered at all these
days. Suppose a mother wants to
arise about a. m. by new time.
That poor mother, who needs rest as
well as all the others, is just one hour
ahead of suntime. Then comes the
children's school hour, they too are
rushed out just one good hour ahead
of Suntime.
The seed of the soil needs darkness
as sunshine, just so do the children
of the land.
It would be splendid if the Anti
tuberculosis Society, which is doing
such active work at the present time,
would tell the people why we have
tuberculosis as well as asking them
to help fight it. I think one of the
main things would be lack of rest.
Although a great many of your
leaders are only children grown
taller you are so far away from child
hood that you do not realize the re-
quirements necessary for children.
The greatest lesson of all would be
to visit the different homes while
mothers are preparing their little
fiocks for school, say with about
two or three at home under six years
of age.
ONLY A MOTHER.

Literary Notes

Lord LeVerhulme, who is now trav-
cling and observing extensively in
this country, has become as famous
for his progressive ideas concerning
the relations between capital and
labor and for his experiments along
that line-the six-hour working day
which he says he has found sue
cessful being one of them-as for
the bignesS, Importance and sue
cess of his operations as a captain
of industry. And therefore when
he praises purpose and an achieve
ment as warmly as he does Henry J.
Spooner's work on wealth From
Waste" in his preface to that vol
ume, it can be taken for granted
that the book is well worth while,
not only in it's material aspects but
also as a message of advice and hope
and good prospects for human be-
ings. For Lord Leverhulme is Just
as much lover of his kind as he
is a man of business. I'VE well

E. P. Dutton &; Co. will have ready
Tor puDllcatlon at the END or this
week, after a long delay due to the
strikes in the printing trades. a new
volume in their Little Schoolmates"

about childhood in Italy. There is
no more popular series of books for
young people, boys and girls alike,
than this of the Little School

esting, colorful stories, pictures for
the children of melting-pot Amer

tries, and the ideals they bring to

largely with occupations and sur

CHO-CHO GOES

NHO-CHO, the health clown, after
n five-day visit in Harrisburg,
Steelton and Middletown, has
gone. But his work here with the
. thousands of children who will in a
few years become the men and
women of the community, has made
a lasting impression on the minds
of these boys and girls.
The Telegraph has watched with
much interest the public health talks
by this scientific gentleman of .he
cap and bells, and knows of no bet
ter way to present to children things
they should do to be healthy. Cho-
Cho told them what to eat and what
to do to take care of their bodies.
He told it to them as q circus clown
and between bits of comic antics
that held the attention of his little
hearers.
When a youngster will climb out
of bed at o'clock in the morning
to see the circus come to town with
its clowns, performers and Gagged
10 oOiilSllllllb IneI6
that the child will always remember.
Then, when a real circus clown comes
to the city and on the stage talks
to the children, entertains them and
tells them what is good for them,
you may be sure that what he said
will not be forgotten.
The Anti-Tuberculosis Society of
Dauphin County deserves much
credit for bringing Cho-Cho here.
BY doing so the children have been
given some helpful service of such
immense value to them that it could
not be estimated in dollars and
cents. If you don't believe it did
some good, note this: Cho-Cho in
his talks said that anything made
in a frying pan is not fit for chill
dren to eat. One reader of the Tele
graph, two days after his twelve
year-old son saw and heard Cho-
Cho, said that at evening meal the
boy would eat nothing but corn
bread and drank milk. The other
foods on the table had been fried
and the youngster would not touch
them. That, we think, is proof of
Cho-Cho's effectiveness.
