BUSINES.SDRESS
Being DESIGNED
Women VIII Stage A Fashion
Show In Gotham At Early
Date

NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-With a
solemn warning to male designers OF
feminine finery that they "sit up
and take notice" 500 Napoleonettes
of the commercial world, members Of
the Professional and Business Wom-
EMS Leagne, are preparing to stage
a fashion show all their own at the
Commodore Hotel, Sept, 1928.
Their purpose, they declare, is to
point out to the Business Flapper
the mcongruities in her get-up; to
bring about a closer affinity between
Beauty and the Working Girl, and,
most important Of all, to impress
upon male architects of female fash
ions the imperative need for a stan
dardized attire for business women
only.
The business girl, instinctively
trying to keep up with the fashions
and at the same time look and feel
practically dressed, has been guilty
Of some innocent atrocities, these
fashion show promoters admit.
To date the mafe designer has con.
fined himself to thinking up novel
effects for the frivolous flapper,
the delirious debutante, the society
matron, globe trotter, dancing girl,
beach beauty, tennis devotees, Diana
Of the Hunt and Lassie Of the Nib
lick" is the way they preamble then
Declaration of Rights.
Torn between her desire to dress
as well as any Of these and with
no accredited pattern book to clip
there has been evolved a business
Flapper" who, they say, don't dress
the way they do because they enjoy
being the butt of humorists and cvn-
les, but simply because they love
beauty and want to express it in the
only way they can-through their
clothes"
Because beauty which would fiji
their needs has never been assem-.
bled and offered them in concrete
form, and because they haven't time
or money to spend making beauty
mt ideas, many of them have made
mistakes" the League continues
"They have not yet learned that
there may be both beauty and utili-
ty in garments il designs are right
The desire to uplift anybody or
anything is entirely lacking from
the purpose Of the style show spon.

Amy's Hope In Red II

New York Oct 27.-Gen. John ),
Pershing appeared Unexpectedly a,
the closing general session OF the con.

The story is there in the minds OF this

Is such an outstanding achievement
and OF such high standard that
those OF us who now belong to the

high standard To- be lowered.
so we must maintain the Red
Cross as matter OF principle and
speaking for the army Of to-day and

say that we all hope that the Red

American people and through their
may continue to do the

Boy Scout Troop Divided

An order from national headquar-
ters directs that the local Boy Scout
troop be divided into two troops,
there being too many members tor
one troop. The boys who joined
last will be enrolled In troop No 2.
Having two troops will necessitate
having local Council and Court Of
Honor.
The Boy Scout camp in Biloxi was
called Armarthette. being combin-
alton Of the names OF Mrs Arwyn
Turner (Ar), Martha Mars (Marth
and j. Carr Annette (ette). These
three young people were active this
summer in promoting the minstrel
for the benefit Of the Boy Sconts,
and the scouts felt some recognition
should be made Of this service.
The name Armarthntte, has been
duly recognized by headquarters,
and will be theofficial name OF this
camp. and in all probability IL will
be made q par nanent camp.
