SaSheS are Good

The long, wide sash and the 'ong
slender waist cord. both are here
this season with an amazing variety

most interesting. however. are the
sashes OF very wide black satin
ribbon. with embroidered ends This
embroidery consists in a generous
design OF leaves and fiowers-and
sometimes a bird-worked in wool
IN several bright colors. The ends
OF the ribbon are usually fringed
for an inch or so.
The long. slender cords used as
sashes. however. remind one OF
pictures OF great ladies OF the mid
die ages They are woven in a sort
OF braided design, and usually vary
from one to two inches in width.
They are finished off With tassels as
ornate or as simple as may be de-
sired. An attractive way Of wearing
them is 10 put them around the

Pretty Ears and

Women have at least one ad-

Ears too highly placed on the

Some women look well with their

Simple External Care.
Most women look best with their
hair falling softly over their ears.

pretty falling over the upper part
OF the ear. The arrangement OF
your hair has much 10 do with the
cont cur OF your ears. so you should
be careful 10 cultivate a hairline that

The care OF your ears externally
consists first OF carefully bathing

Women and the League

During the long and tedious pro-
ceedings in the senate. when the SUI
frage amendment was up for con-
sideratioii and hnaI action, two wom-
en- who are old friends were sitting
side By each" talking politics, as
they come from widely separated
sections Of the country. One OF them
is a we'll known democrat from "A
voting state. the other equally well
known. represents a state with no
suffrage The democrat has always
thought OF her friend as a republi-
can Of deepest dye. and said so in
the course OF the conversation.
But I am not a republican" re-
piled her friend quickly. I'm not
sure what | am-except that I'm not
going TO follow Lodge and Pen-ose
and Brandegee, If they are 10 be
the republican leaders, l can't go
with that party. for il will not be
headed in the direction l want 10 go.
You see. l was a pacifist. and I hate
the very idea of war. l think the
manufacture OF munitions should be
taken out Of the hands OF individ
uals. II nobody had any direct
monetary interest in war. l think
we should stand in Tar less danger OF
wars. l don't mean just the United
States. but all civilized countries"
Then you must be in favor OF the
League OF Nations2" said her friend.
"Of course 1 am" she said quickly.
Il think practically all the women in
the country are for it. What if il
isn't perfect? Didn't our own Con-
stitution have TO be amended doz
en- times within a year or so after its
adoption? Yes. and haven't we been

goodness, we shall not have 10 come

Women don't expect perfection.
We all know things we would like 10
have done in our own homes-sleep-
ing porches and open plumbing. and
building an addition or a piazza now

that is no longer needed-but it's
better than living in a tent When
we rent house that doesn't suit

places, but there IS some chance of

we are just where we were in 1914.

into the whirlpool

committeeman that he might just as

the last week Of June at Newark

NO bigger piece of Americaniza-
ton work can be done in this coun-
try than bridging the social and &c
onomic gaps as surely and securely
as our boys over there fought and
died to help bridge the gaps that
were dividing world conditions.
said Miss Parker. I'VE may shoot
the bolsheviks-and they should be
shot-but the only way Wen over
come bolshevism is by squarely fac
ing our individual responsibility OF
bridging over these widening gaps
We can't continue to let these con
ditions tester. We've been dealing
too much with effects and not
enough with causes. AS our future
work, we women must make it pos
sible TO create the kind of home
community, and country that our
boys have fought and died for"

NEW YORK, July 5.-In spite of
the gold of July sunshine, these are
grey days and both the outlook and
an occasional fleeting little look-in
are equally ashen-hued.
Grey has long been considered a
demure and trifle sombre color
scheme but there is nothing demure
or somber about the newest silver
toned lingerie Of MORE Georgette
crepe. 1t is as coquettishly and
frivolously worldly as even a summer
siren could desire. IT seems as If il
were fashioned from the fairy cob
webs of dreams or as if some magic
fingers had captured the elusive
smoke wreaths from a poets pipe,
laid them out upon a cutting table
and whacked them into camisole,
combinations and chemises for a
perfect 36.
Plain, save for a wee filet or Cluny
edge and the CLEAN of shiny two
toned satin ribbons in flesh, pale
blue. mauve or corn color. these
sheer and fairy garments rely for
their main beauty on the lovely sill
yer ripples OF the grey MORE ma
terial In fact they are almost
tailored in their chaste severity Of
line. The use of the double faced
twO-tOned satin ribbon is also a new
note on the new nighties and every
thing and is the only form OF two
facedness that has much in its
favor.

The Suffrage Amendment
By Mrs. George Bass

cedure. 1t says:
We recommend the extension of
the franchise 20 the women Of the
country by the states upon the same
terms as men"
II the states chose to act sepa-
rately as did Oklahoma. South Da-
kota and Michigan last fall, well and
good. Now that they are called on
10 act collectively there is nothing in
that plank that even suggests oppO-
sition 10 such action Sen Walsh
brought this out very clearly during
the discussion in the senate last Oc-
tober After telling some Of the de-
tails connected with the framing of
the plank at St Louis (and he was a
member OF the committee which
drafted the platform). he went on 10
say that the democratic convention
recommended to the several states
that they individually extend the
right Of suffrage to women. But he
emphasized the fact that there was
no declaration whatever in the plat
form either for or against submit
ting a federal amendment. Not only
is there no declaratio. but no pref
erence is stated as 10 method.
The democrat who does his best
10 secure prompt ratification will
be acting in harmony with the &C
tion Of the national convention in
1915, and carrying out the wishes OF
the leaders of his party as clearly
expressed in the resolution adopted
by the democratic national commit
tee May % in Chicago.

Cold Pack Easier;
Improves Flavor

The cold pack method Of canning
is not so commonly used in canning
fruits as the older method, that OF
the open kettle, yet if every house
wife knew that the flavor would
be better, the fruit more solid and
unbroken, and that standing over
a hot stove watchinS the fruit in
the open kettle could be eliminated,
all fruits would be canned by this
method.
Select firm. ripe cherries, seed
and if very sour blanch one minute
in boiling water, cold dip and pack
in tempered Jars. If cherries are in
tended for table use, syrup should
be used to fill the jars. Thin syrup
is made by using one part sugar to
four parts water. Boil until sugar
dissolves. Medium syrup is made
by using one part of sugar to two
parts of water. Boil until it thick
ems. After the syrup is cooked, fill
the can to within one quarter inch
of top. Place rubber which has been
dipped in hot water, and top. Seal
partially to allow expansion.
If a screw top jar, use thumb and
little finger; if wire and bail, snap
bail across top. Place in not water
bath and process 1G minutes after
water reaches boiling point. Re-
move from water bath, seal tightly
and test for leakage.
