PREDICT 100 PER CENT
CLOTHING COST INCREASE

New York, July 19.-An increase
Of 100 per cent in the cost Of mems
clothing was predicted for next sum
mer at the opening here last night

deeper. In addition to this gaudy
Innings of Alice blue, orange and
similar brilliant hues will be in vogue,
while vests will be cut lower and
permit a greater display of dazzling
shirts. 1t was stated that no depar-
ture in the present style Of trousers

KIPLING PAYS TRIBUTE
TO u. S. MARINES

At the ball given at Manchester
England, to the officers of the United
States marine corps, says the Re-
CRITTERS Bulletin of the Devil Dogs
the welcoming address by Field Mar
shall Haig was followed by these
lines from Kipling:
The day was far spent like our men.
We had sent
For support but had waited in vain.
The gray line of fire rolled higher,
and higher,
Then Wavered and ebbed back again.
But we know if the night should shut
down on the fight,
We should lose every trench-every
pit,
So we lost heart at last when our
Colonel went past
On a stretcher, white faced and hard
hit.
Just then from the rear came a
weird yapping cheer
High over the rapid fires hum.
And up went our shout as our Major
shrieked out:
"Sit tight, lads-the Yankees have
comew
And they came as at Dover the
breakers surge over
The cliffs, and they smothered the
Hun.
Then-we dropped asleep kneeling-
and standing-all feeling
The Job out in front was we'll done.
They are round us tonight in the
bathrooms bright light
Mid the waltz's soft surges and foam
Though the hands are now hid in i'm
maculate kid
That once drove the bayonet home.
But we know till are furled the war
flags Of the world
What the cult of blood-brotherhood
means
That their Lib IS light viii e'er
flash through the night,
"Sit tight-till | send my Marines!'
