CHIC NEW SWEATER BLOUSE
Garment Devised With Purpose Of
Conserving Wool, but Without
Giving Up Good Points.

An extremely serviceable and jaunty
garment is the new combination sweat
err blouse, devised by some one who
wanted to conserve wool without CIV
ing up the good points of the sweater.
A blouse Of some gay striped silk is
first made according to pattern that
opens down the front with fronts that
fold back and join in a wide sailor col
lar. But the sailor collar is not made
of the silk. Instead, it is made of wool
of some color that goes well with the
strikes in the silk, as are wide cuffs
for the sleeves and foot wide hip Sec
ton that forms a tight-fitting peplum
for the blouse. To put it on it is SIM
ply pulled over the head. 1t is charm
ing to wear with the walking suit
skirt, and the wool is placed just
where the additional warmth under
the suit coat might be most welcome
of frosty mornings.

coIor Takes Lead for Universal Be-
con,insness-BIue Also a Strong
Favorite With Women.

The possibilities of the veil are prac-
tically unlimited. Chosen with care with
regards to color, size and design, a
veil has power to make even the plain
est women startlingly attractive. On
the other hand, veil can make a
really pretty woman hopeless.
Perhaps the most important consid-
Grafton is color Black must take the
lead for universal becomingness. After
that comes blue; but it must be quite
a dark blue, and preferably of coarse
indicted mesh. The blue veil is be-
coming to blonde and brunette alike,
and is wonderfully effective in sug-
costing fineness and clearness of skin.
Most trying of all though, is the white
veil. Only she who knows her type to
perfection and has proved the becOm-
ingness of the white veil should at
tempt it. But brown wells for charm
ing red heads by all means!
AS to size or shape, the unimpeach-
ably groomed person may go in for the
long flowing veil, hanging loose from
the face. But the average woman, if
she would look her triggest best, must
have her veil snug.
Unbeautifying splashy scrolls of the
all-over kind are usually not the choice
of the carefully dressed woman, no
matter how modish the pattern. The
same thing is true of dots. Dots well
spaced on a veil carefully arranged
have a positive fascination. But you
know the funny side Of a dot mis-
placed, don't you?

War Is Responsible for
Many Words and Phrases
Added to English Tongue

The English language is very "elas-
tic" one, and ever receptive of new
words and phrases. AS result of the
war, observes London Answers, it has
become saturated with terms Of mill
tary, French and American origin in
particular.
"GOing west" has profound and
poignant significance. Its origin is
doubtless from somewhere in North
America" and its peculiar applicable
ity is seen as one thinks of the sun
sinking to it's rest at eventide, behind
some Of the eternal hills.
According to plan" is military
idiom which has been frequently used
Of late, and has much significance.
Among the phrases which have come
to stay is that striking French one !:
Ills ne passeront pas" ("They shall
not pass!') 1t tells Of grit and per-
severance on the part of brave men
against fearful odds, and will ever be
an inspiration to future generations.
Much discussion has taken place re-
Gently over the meaning of the word
"decimated." 1t is frequently used by
war correspondents to express great
slaughter, but really it only means one
in ten, being derived from the Latin
decimus, tenth. The use Of the word
"fy" and "fee" in our war journalism
also has been confusing at times. ely
means to move with wings, while "flee"
is general term, and denotes moving
with rapidity.
Our old, well-worn friends "blighty"
and "camouflage" hardly need refer
ence, but the first named is doubtless
derived from bilati, the Hindoo word
for home, and brought to this country
by our soldiers from overseas. "Camou-
flage," is French expression, mean

MITTENS ARE IN GAY COLORS
Wooden Hand-Coverings Are Seen in
Large Variety; Often Match
Scarf or Cap.

One reason put forward for the
vogue for mittens is that one cannot
carry muff and carry a bag, and
every patriotic woman simply must
carry bag these days. Another rea-
son, and one that holds true of the
woman of moderate income, is that
fur is high and new muff is out of
the question. Then a lot of women
are doing outdoor work who never
did it before. They are exposed to
the cold nipping air of morning and
evening on their way to and from vol
unteer or paid work. They drive
automobiles and conduct" street cars
and act as messenger boys and collect
bills, and for this work they need to
have protection for their hands that
is more substantial than the kid glove
or fabric glove of other days.
Hence the mitten!
The prediction was made some
months ago that the smartly dressed
woman would be wearing shaggy an.
CORA gloves and mittens and some peo-
pie shrugged their shoulders and felt
sure that there was nothing that would
tempt the well-dressed woman away
from the conventional kid. Surely the
TACT that they had almost doubled in
price would not have this effect on
the woman who took dressing serious.
~. But the vogue has come, and
where well-dressed women are seen
In outdoor attire there one also sees
wooden gloves and wooden mittens
They are made in the gayest colors
often to match a wooden scarf or CAP
and as the, season advances they will
be even more in evidence than they
are now.

carry it off. This refers to day frocks.
There is no attempt to relieve the
neckline Of evening gowns when they
are deeply decollete, as the bodice is
rarely of heavy or opaque material.
The introduction of an afternoon
frock, which now means frock worn
for lunch as well as tea, but not for
the ordinary purposes of shopping or
patriotic work, with a deep U-shaped
decolletage half filled in with a fiat
ruffle of lace, has met with sufficient
popularity to insure a reasonable
measure of success, and one hears. on
every side the expression of pleased
acceptance with a fashion that gives
one a chance to have the face soft
ened.
Against this judgment there are a
host Of DIRECTORS who insist that the
severe neckline is smart and that the
other is out of the picture, but as soon
as enough well-dressed women adopt
the advancing method then she who is
out of the picture will be in it. 1t is
merely a question of the eye. We are
the victims of visual familiarity with
objects. Otherwise there would not be
that complete change in the fashions
which occurs season in and out.

Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims pride.
From every mountainside
Let freedom ring.
My native country, thee
Land of the noble, free,
Thy name I love;

Thy woods and tempted hills;

Sweet freedoms song;
Let mortal tongues awake,

Let rocks their silence break
The sound prolong.

Long may our land be bright,
With freedoms holy light;
Protect us by thy might,

SeasonabIe Dishes,

A most tasty dessert that is easily
made and one which will appeal to the
hurried housewife is:
Rice Custard.
Beat two eggs until thick, add one
half cupful of boiled rice, a pint Of
milk and honey to sweeten, flavoring
with grated orange peel. Bake in a
pan set in hot water until the custard
is firm. One white may be reserved
for a meringue, with tablespoonful
Of sugar and bit of the grated rind
for flavor. Brown in a moderate oven.
Gingerbread.
Take one cupful each of molasses,
brown sugar and peanut butter, two
eggs, one cupful of sour milk, one-half
teaspoonful of grated nutmeg, one
quarter teaspoonful of cloves, one ia
blespoonful Of ginger, one teaspoonful
of soda, one and one-half cupfuls each
of barley and corn flour, one teaspoon
fool of cinnamon. Mix together the
sugar, peanut butter and spices with
the molasses. Place in a bowl, set in
a warm place until the butter is soft,
then beat the mixture to cream. Beat
the eggs to froth and add them with
the salt. Sift the soda with the flour
and add, alternating with the sour
milk. Whip the batter well, then pour
into well-greased tube pan. Bake 40
minutes in a moderate oven. Steamed
and served with orange or lemon sauce
it makes fine dessert.
In making mullins, gems and bread,
small amounts of leftover cereals may
be added. When batters are made
without the use of eggs the mixture
should be beaten long and well.
Fruit Mullins.
Mix together one cupful each of. oat
flour and barley flour, three teaspoon.
fuls of baking powder, two table
spoonfuls of molasses, one tablespoon.
full of melted shortening and one and
one-half cupfuls of milk, enough to
make a drop batter which will DROP
easily from the spoon, about like cake
batter. Add at the last one-half cup
full of Toured dates or raisins, or few
of both. Beat well and bake in a mod
crate oven.

Cream separatOrs, ensilage cutters,
and the like are connected with the
trucks engines and operated. One
truck is equipped with a complete farm
lighting plant, and this is used to pro-
vide lights for speakers stand and
current to project motion pictures.
Experts figure that the farmers
haulage and transportation problems
are quite as important right now as
the production Of crops. This ma
ttonal motOrtruck development tour
is designed as a practical means OF
proving motortruck efficiency to the
American people.
Each manufactures concerned in the
run is driving his truck to the farm
er's door and demonstrating it's ability
to perform over every type Of road
and under every condition in soft
fields. In other words, these build
ers are not merely proclaiming the
value of their commodity but are prov
ing it's sturdiness and worth by actual
demonstration.
The need of power wagons on the
farm is evidenced by the number al
ready owned and operated by Ameri-
can farmers. The potential market for
motortrucks In the farm field has not
until recently been given appreciable
attention by the big truck builders and
distributors. They have put forth
practically no effort to supply this
field, but the farmers need of motor
lied help in the absence Of man power
has forced him to buy.
"Few farmers will argue against the
value of the power wagon in their
homes" says Official Lecturer Kroh.
''What they need is intelligent instruc-
ton as to size, power, body and tire
equipment, and cost of operation.
"The evolution in the methods of
production on farms from the hand
planter, cultivatOr, the scythe and
strike to the more modern machinery,
such as self-binders, ETC., drawn by
horses and later by tractors was a
perfectly natural trend of progress.
Just as natural is the evolution from
the pack on the back, the camel, the
OK cart, and the horsed drawn vehicle
to the power wagon to solve the farm
er's haulage problems.
"From 1850 to 1900, when the old
hand methods of farming were in
vogue, farm values in America in
creased from $4,O00,OO0OOO to $2O0OO,-
600 900. From 1900 to the present day,
when the more modern methods have
been in vogue, farm values have in
creased from $2O,OOO,OOO,O to $780,
OOC, 100000. This is due to the abil-
ity of the farmer to cultivate a wider
acreage more extensively and market
his commodity more advantageously

and also, of course, in part to the mat
ter of supply and demand
From 1899 to 1900 the population Of
the United States increased 21 per
cent, and even with improved meth
DDS in these days it was only possible
to increase the production of food
stuffs 10 per cent-hence the in
creased cost Of living.
In 1880 70 per cent of the popula-
tion Of the United States lived on
farms. 1t was necessary then for
each farmer to produce only sufficient
food for himself and mere fraction
of another family. Today over 70
per cent Of the population of the
United States lives in the densely pop
ulated cities. Each farmer must pro-
duce enough for himself and two adj
d1tional families in the United States,
not taking into consideration starving
Europe.
The power wagon manufacturers
of America are face to face with the
fact that it is their duty to learn
quickly the needs of the American
farmer and produce and equip q ma.
chine that will most efficiently and eco-
nOmically serve his needs.
"The United States department Of
agriculture in 1918 made very thor
ough survey of truck operations in
the rural districts. They found that
the length of hauls by motortruck
averaged 11.3 miles, as against
miles with team and wagon; that 3.4
round trips were made per day with
the mOtortruck against 1.5 round
trips with the team that with the mo-
tOrtruck wheat and corn have been
transported to market at 10 cents per
ton mile, as against 80 cents per ton
mile for wheat by team and 33 cents
per ton mile for corn by team.
"These facts would indicate that in
point of time and miles covered the
motortruck is practically four times
as efficient as the horse and wagon.
And of course it is self evident that
the time saved enables the farmer to
do a more perfect job of preparation,
planting, cultivation and harvesting
"The efficiency of motortrucks and
the broadening Of their field of opera
tions has been increased more by the
development of pneumatic tires than
by anything that has come to the in
dustry in years.
"Pneumatics materially increase the
life of the truck, reduce operating and
repair bills and give much greater mile
age on gas and lubricating oil. They
afford traction and enable the truck
and off roads when solid tired trucks
would not operate. Their cushioning
qualities permit increased speed. Over
rough roads this cushioning quality Is
of inestimable Importance when the
shrinkage in live stock and the damage
to perishab1e merchandise is taken
into consideration.
'Tt is pneumatic tired trucks, there
fore, that are being taken to the farm
ers on this tour. Undoubtedly the
demonstration-over every type Of
road that the farmer in America comes
in contact with and hauling every con-
ceivable type Of merchandise produced
in the agricultural sections-will go
far to eliminate any fear that may
still rest in the minds of the farmers
that the motortruck is not sound
