FINDINGS ADD TO EXPENSE
Home DressnalSer Knows That u
Pays to Save Accessories From
Discarded Garnent&

Findings, these days, may well
mount up into several dollars for even
n very simple frock, as we soon dis
cover Il we attempt little home dress
making, either with or without the aid
Of a seamstress- Betting By the yard,
hooks and eyes, snaps, sewing silk,
have all advanced enormously, and ap-
parently have no immediate intention
Of coming down In price.
And so It really Is worth while to
conserve these accessories Of dressmak-
ing In a manner that has not been
thought OF by American women for
many years. But why should we not
save them7 II hardly ever happens
that hooks and eyes and buttons are
worn out when q garment Is worn out.
OF course II we give the garments
away, then Il Is decidedly Inc0Esid-
crate and a piece Of false thrift to rob
them Of buttons or other fasteners, but
II we wear the garment out ourselves
and most OF rs do nowadays-then
we should take care that all findings
are taken out before the garment goes
into the rag bag.
And so the gentle art ot,ripping may
be revived We may find II expedient
to rip apart WORKOUT silk frockS IN
search Of the pieces Of good silk that
can be used to make the top Of silk
pefticoat. OF parts Of q white summer
frock: for pieces Of sheer material
that can be washed and freshened to
use In making Innings to froeks later
on.

BUILDINGS
BURN AT G. M. c.

Milledgeville, Ga. January 10
tSpeciaD-Four of the main buildings
OF the Georgia Military college at
Milledgeville were totally destroyed
by fire last night at approximate loss
of $4,000. The buildings destroyed
were the old new dormitories the ar
mory and the hospital.
The fire originated on the second
floor OF the old dormitory while the
student body was at supper. 1t had
gained considerable Roadway before
it was discovered. and flames spread
from this building to the new dormi-
tory, and both building were burned
to the ground before the fire depart
ment reached the scene.
From the new dormitory the flames
spread to the armory Desperate eff
forts were made by the fire depart
ment assisted by the 400 cadets to
save the armory, but to no avail, and
from this building the flames spread
to the hospital, which was the last
of the four buildings to burn
Students to the number of 225 who
were left temporarily without a home
were taken into the homes of the citi-
2cns of the town.
The new dormitory was built three
years ago at a cost of $15,$$$. The
other buildings were erected twenty
years ago
The guns of the cadets which were
stored in the armory, were the only
things saved.
The loss was partially covered by
insurance, but it is not known just

ICE CREAM SODA CUTS
 INTO PARIS CUSTOM

The cafe owners of France, whose name is legion-plus, have a grievance against the American Y. M. c. A. By insidious methods the American or- ganization is undermining a national institution. Every day it is adding to the number of Frenchmen so lost to shame that they walk right past the cafes openly and brazenly to seek ice cream soda fountains!
 Not that the '. M. c. A. has been pussyfooting. or anything like that. But because ice cream was almost an un- cream soda a real rara avis, the Y. NJ c. A. esta blished regular American soda fountains in several places and made a speciality of ice-cream and cold drinks in virtually all of its can teens
 It did so to meet the demand of the doughboys. They demanded it sQ of- ten that right in the center or the Tuileries a refreshment stand put up sign, Ice -Cream-English Spoken"- and every day sold many gallons of bitterish glace at the rate of not more cents (exciusive of the tip.)
 But it wasn't the real stuff, so the Y begin serving a full -hedged American ice-cream soda for ten cents, or a sunda ae-three scoops of ice-cream in a bowl, with genuinely fresh fruit over it-for twenty cents. A hOme-run with the bases full in the ninth inning of a worlds series game wouldn't have made hit like that with the American boys and the French people have
