Woman's Bureau HELPS
Troops While Shopping
War Camp Service Shows How
To Save Money When Pay
Checks Are Ready

One of the most active and popular
shopping services in the city is that
conducted for the conveniences of Of
flcers by the War Camp Community
Service. Under the management Of
Miss Gabrielle Rosiere, who for ten
years has done similar work for we'll
known magazines, the w. c.. C. Shop
ping Bureau helps the stray officer lost
in the maze of New York's shopping
section TO find himself and purchase
at the best values whatever he may
need or wish
When she first opened the service
Miss Rosiere expected to handle all
the work herself, but so popular did
the bureau become and SO many the
daily requests for assistance that she
increased her staff little by little until
at the present time she has ten assist
ants.

"They want everything, from pens
to planoas, and we are able to obtain
material discount for them in many
of the best shops. This means econ
omy-or something off to be spent for
an additional purchase later on. Our
requests for help average 1900 a
month. We save about $40 to each
applicant, and that would make an ag-
gregate saving of 100000 during the
past five months of our work

Tight Skirts Cause
More Car Accidents
Transit Lines Bewail Cut of
Suits When Present Style
Is More Popular

An increase in accident cases. due
to the new fashion of tight skirts. is
being awaited by the claim departments
of the various surface railway compa-
MES of New York City. The psychology
of women, say officials OF these compa-
MES, has been deeply and earnestly
studied by the street railway compa-
MES. Therefore when they noticed
with real regret that the long, tight
skirt found favor in feminine fancy
they sighed, but prepared for action
OF course, all women have not as
yet adopted the extreme tight skirt
But as long as one of 'em has, they
all will SOON mourned the heads of
the claim departments.
The New York Railways Company is
quite exercised about the situation
"Why should women wear these mar
row skirts which ondanger their safe
ty and are not nearly as comfortable
or good looking as the short, wide
skirts they have been wearing?" ar
gued its aforementioned claim depart
ment official He doesn't want his
name given. He's afraid of what the
women will say to him. He acknowl-
edged 1t quite frankly.
The new type Of car with the fold
ing step has greatly lessened the pos
sibility of accident due to fashions
whims. he says. The New York Rail
ways Company handles only about 100
boarding and alighting accident cases
a month now, in comparison with
three or four hundred previously. Peo-
pie can't get on or leave the new
type cars until they have stopped, and
the motormen can't start them until
the door is closed. In Brooklyn, how
ever the low step car is not in such
general use, says the claim agent. who
lives there, and consequently the tight
skirt adherents arc having a difficult
and embarrassing time.
But the real menace to women's
safety on street cars is the high heel
he believes. Many cases of injury
can be traced to them, claim agents
declare.
Some of 'cm are three inches high
and only about a half-inch in width ,"
atfirms John Yenson, of the Third Ave-
woman's a trihe, cr-large, it's a mys-
terry to me how she maintains her
equilibrium
The edge Of the heel, he says,
catches very easily on the edge of the
car step, or on the skirt, the woman
falls and blamcs it on the car COM
pany.
If women want to be really free and
"cmanci pated,' Mr.. Yenson believes,
they ought to pass laws setting forth
the requirements of the perfect heel
which ought TO be as wide as the foot
and not more than half an inch high.
Notwithstanding the impossible heel
and the restraining skirt there are
fewer accidents to women than to men,
the companies find.

Wins 800 Mile Race

a racing car with unique career

as bsiness and family car in 1911,
and not until 1914 was It groomed

horse power gas buggy IL won at
37.S miles per hour in a road race
for Mr.. Miller. Besides winning him
Silver trophy Cup, It also carried
$3.50 to his pocket. Two years lat
er he figured In another race, losing
by small margin.
Recently It was put in trim for
the race from El Paso to Phoenix,
came through as a winner 41.3 miles
per hour AS the saying goes "im-
proving with old age" or maybe 1t
was the Diamond cords which gave It

At any rate Mr.. Miller has only
kind remarks for the performance of
the cords. which carried him over
the ough malapal rock stretches with
out a single blowout. 1t seems res
iliency was another marked feature
of the cord victory. "In none OF my
other races" says Mr.. Miller, did
ever ride as free from bumps and
