one white one I saw the other day

Ing up the skirts to the hiys. with the
tucks one-quartcr OF an inch wide.
Another dainty idea carried out on n
pink organdy SKIRT was three clusters
OF one-half inch tucks placed equal
distances apart from the hips down.
BY the-way this placing OF trimming
at the hips Is quite a new fashion. ]
wouldn't suggest, however. that mi
lady. inclined to be stout. take 1t up.
Hats made entirely of organdy, or
trimmed with II, came into style last
! summer and were NO popular that they
continue to be worn very much this
year. The daintiest ones are made of
ruffles, or tucks of the material. and
trimmed with wreaths of tiny flowers.
A colored organdy with the flowers of
var1gated shades Is most attractive.
Some orsandy hats are trimmed with
bows Of organdy, while these same
bows also make pretty trimming for
light colored straw hats.
New vosues In satlns and Silks.
Wash silks and satins for skirts
seem to have como to stay. They are
beautiful and really more servicable
than one would think. For you know
they all wash and among them I include
baronette and fant-a-si. Some women
think these latter are spoiled by wash
ing, but try doing It yourself, Of
course quite carefully and with Ivory
Soap or LUX. and you will ind they
come out looking as good as new.
Besides the baronette and fant-a-si
there are regular wash satins and silks
also crepe de chine. They all make
very pretty skirts but It Is hard to find
anything to compare with lovely. SHIN
merry baronette satin. 1t Do such an ex-
quisite material that simple. plain
skirts Of It are the most effective. FAINT
a-si in some attractive two tone COM
It Is really q silk crepe with q satin
finis and il lovely. In addition to Its
delightful appearance it Is a material
which does not wrinkle nearly SO cas-
lily as baronette.
Come In All Shades.
These materials come in all the de-
sirablo dark or light shades and fan
tasy in some attractive two tone COM
binations. They are a little moro dressy
in white but in some Of the bright
shades of blue, green or rose they are
very chic worn with a dainty blouse.
/ Suits Of baronette or fant-a-si are
very pretty, but I havn't seen very
many of them. One that was quite at
tracttve was made of gray fant-asi bro
caded with satin. 1t was all Of the
same shade of light gray and with it
were worn gray shoes to match and a
gray georgette hat with a lovely fac
ing Of old rose. The combination was
charming.

INDUSTRIAL OUTLOOK.
! . . . . . . . =, . Q . . . (


 The signing of the armistice has brought no lessening of the activities of the industrial committee of the War Work council, but the character of the work has been changed to meet the demands of the reconstruc- tion period. For the benefit of the woman in industry, who is feeling
 so strongly the disturbed economic conditions of the time, demonstration industrial centres have been planned !, in ten cities which have large indus trial populations. These centres are to be financed by the War Work council until January, 1920, when they will be taken over by the local associations.
 The management is vested in a
 committee, of one-half of whom are
 to be chosen from representative wo-
 men of the community and the other
 half composed of women employed in
 the community.
 In all the industrial questions of
 the day the Y. w. c. A. is working
 to help establish a public opinion that
 will seek the protection of women,
 their health and welfare and the pro-
 motion of certain industrial stand
 ards. The National Association in
 1918 adopted as definite part of it's

One hundred and forty-four per sons, out of 54 cases, handled by the Associated Charities during the month of June shows to some extent the, activity of the local charities organization. This report, which was made at the board of directors meeting, at the Hotel Pines Thurs day hdpn.4 also shows that S3 visits were slnade during the month, 50 interviews by applicants for aid, and 20 consultations in the office.
 There were on hand June 1, Al cases, and four new cases were handl- ed, with four old ones re-opened. Various causes for this poverty were shown-such as folks out of work children under age limit; widows. de- serted mothers, deafmutes, blind, feeble minded, physically handi- capped, and number of other causes.
 In order to handle these cases, nearly fifty orders of groceries were given. Several orders for medicine, for clothing, wood. laundry, trans portation, meals, special diets and physicians services.
 The financial report was very good. leaving a balance on hand of S92.27, the expenses being devided as follows: For administrative expend- ed $124.70: for social service $S691, leasing $216.57 for relief work.

FRENCH BRIDES OF TANKS WELL
 ENTERTAINED
Hostess House at St. NaZaire Houses Them While Await

Correspondence Associated Press)

(Correspondence Associated Press)
 s.. .Iazaire, France, June 19.- French brides of American soldiers on their way from France to their new homes in America are entertain ed in the Hostess house here until they and their husbands are ready to go on board steamer. Thusfar, 81 of these newly-made American wives have been taken care of in this tenn porary home for brides.
 The work of caring for them is conducted by the Young Women's Christian associa Sion with five workers under the charge of Miss Mary Fay. The house was opened May 1, and is located in grove of trees outside the limits of the mems camp.
 The wives many of whom had never been more than 20 miles from their homes before are met at the station with an automobile and taken to the Hostess house where they are given thorough physical inspection, teeth examined and any necessary work to be done on them is here done.N After this they are given the opportunity to bathe, change their clothiiN and are assigned bed in ohe 3f the spick and span dorma- . tories.g Their life from then on until the stiA4A, they board the boat is chief ly ocd6pied in learning the English larguage, sewing, and exercises and recreations of various kinds in the mornings and with their husbands in the afternoons.
 Ten days is the average time each girl spends in this camp. From it she is taken directly to the boat where she again meets her husband, he having been transferred from his organization to a casual company so that they can take the same boat back. That the government is doing everything in it's power to make their life while still in the army happy sone is very evident.
 A month ago it was estimated that accommodations for 55 would be ample for this camp. That was less than month ago. Today there are accommodations for one hundred and twenty and more barracks are being built. The 18th Cavalry alone brought 51 newly married men and their wives. And now that the Ser vice of Supply troops are going through here fast it is suspected that the Hostess house may be swamped for these troops, unlike the combat troops, have been stationed in ont place most of their time over here and ehave had the opportunity to wi, and wed some dainty French girl.

 BACK TO HOME" MOVEMENT

Kansas City. Mo-, July 26.-A "back to the home" movement has had an unhearlded but firm begin ming among women who work, ac- cording to Mrs. w. E. Cramer. head of the women's division of the federal endowment bureau.
 During the war. Mrs. Cramer points out, many girls went into fac tories and shops to take advantage of the high wages offered them. Now this surplus help is being discharged Unable to obtain the same high wages in other lines of work, and yet desiring better surroundings than the "hall bedroom" in the city af- lords, these girls ere going into homes as domestics, sure of fair wages and something of home com forts.
 "The same work is heinz sought by women on farms" Mrs. Cramer said. Outside of the increase in pay on the farms. farm work has become more attractive to them. It has been difficult at times to get women to accept work on farms" She said wages have doubled, adding:
 "Three of my girls who have been doing farm work married their bosses, last week

200 GIRLS TAKE VACATION UPON
 CRATER'S BRINK
Homeless and Homesick Teach CTS in Hawaii Rusticating in
 Adamless Eden.

Hilo, Island of Hawaii, T. H., July 1.-(By maiD-Marooned on tropi- cal isle, 2,OO0 miles or more from home, and camping on the brink of the crater of Kilauea, one of the worlds greatest active volcanoes, 200 girls, most of them pretty and all of them charming, are spending va cation of two mouths in manless Eden.
 This is not scenario; it's a de- scription of Hawaii's summer camp for homeless and homesick school i teachers.
 1 A few weeks ago some 300 women school teachers of Hawaii heard the sad news that they could not get back to the States for their summer vacation. the army transports being booked full with months ahead, war service having taken many of the Pacific's finest steamers to the At lantic.
 When the teachers predicament became known, L. A. Thurston, Hono- lulu newspaper publisher, suggested the idea of a summer camp for teachers at Kilauea. where the great elevation and cool climate would give the young women pleasant change from the rather depressing summer heat of the Hawaiian lowlands. The ,'o-operation of the department of public education, the Y. M. c. A., and the army was enlisted, the military camp at the volcano being obtained for the accommodation of the teachers and such Y. M. c. A. members as cared to attend.
 The public schools closed June 27 and the summer camp opened June 29, to close about September 1. A summer normal school will be con- ducted in connection with the camp but attendance is not obligatory. The young women are being provided with meals at actual cost.

MANY VISITORS TO CITY.

In spite of the very hot weather, society, in the younger circles, has had re-birth, and is going at full tilt. The great number of out of town visitors, who have been in their midst, have helped much to "stir things up."

ELINQUENCY AMONG GIRLS

Topeka, Kan. July 26.-"Modern tendencies" as affecting the home life of young girls are augmenting de- linquency among these girls to an alaring degree. declares Miss Eva Corning, county probation officer of the juvenile court. These tendencies, in the main, are twofold, she says: Attracting school girls to positions, thereby removing them to large de- pree from parental influence, and. on the other hand, attracting mothers to positions at the sacrifice of her home duties.
 "I do wish these critical times would end," said Miss Carning," be- cause am most alarmed by the pres ent trend of juvenile cases"
