to consumer, in an effort to eliminate
some Of the numerous sizes and
weights, as they come from the mill,
and many of the unnecessary frills
and furbelows that cost the consumer
hundreds Of thousands Of dollars each
year.
Secretary of Commerce Hoover esti-
mates that millions of dollars have
already been saved through simpn-
f1cations made In several industries in
the last two years.
Experts Make Study
Experts Of the commerce depart-
ment, on request from trade asso-
Citations and manufacturers, make a
study of any desired industry. Having
found what simplifications and stand
ardizations can be made, they meet
with representatives Of the industry
and show the results of their survey.
These are carried back to the trade
and put into effect voluntarily when
70 per cent have approved the
changes. These simpifcations are
often a relief to manufacturers driven
to absurd lengths by competition in
inessential features.
The life of the people is already
being affected. Sizes of beds have
been reduced from numerous lengths
ard widths to four, so that a mat
tress can now be ordered by telephone.
Great reductions have been made in
the varieties of hotel dishes, paper
bags, farm implements, cans, wiring
ers, concrete mixers. paving bricks
and woven wire fence, to mention a
few. One manufacturer of little
household knicknacks is reducing the
varieties of products, finding that So
peg cent of his business is done on
only SO items. He formerly manu-
featured 1000. Over sixty other In
dustries are now working with the
department Of Commerce on reduc-
tons

Some way, little Marquise, L have
so many things 1 want to get clear
in my mind, so many things 1 must
tell to some one that | seem to be
writing you letters all the time lately.
Ever since that night at the res

He has been alternately in the high

they are. 1 have never seen any as
lovely. They are perfectly matched
and so milky white. I played they

The next day after we dined at the
restaurant. Ruth came over to see
me. Poor girl she is very unhappy
Her husband is not only spending
most of his time with Edith Chap
man but he is neglecting his broker

fided to me. she thinks he is gam

irritable.

The Department of Commerce is
now arranging with the her DIS of the
various garment industries for a style
conference to be held here within a
few weeks. The object is to abolish
wasteful practices and introduce
standardized mats wherever that can
be done without restricting individual
taste in styles and patterns.
For instance, buttons are Of so
a difficulty. Unnecessary machines
are required, larger stocks must be
kept on hand. Experts estimate that
thousands of dollars can be saved by
agreeing upon a limited number of
buttons, still leaving sufficient styles
and sizes to meet all practical needs.
That's the simplest Illustration of
what is expected at the coming style
conference.
Must Be Unanimous
The changes will be adopted volun-
tarily and only those unanimously
agreed to by the bulk of the industry
will be approved.
This is the most recent step in
long program Of simplification through
which Secretary of Commerce Hoover
hopes TO save millions Of dollars
annually.
AS IN their other Investigations, ex-
perts will go back to essentials, trac-
ing clothing through its hundred and
one different steps from raw material

Your age, size and type would have
much to do with the way you would
look with bobbed hair You may be
affected by the fact that. although
bobbing seems to be as popular as
ever in this part of the cofGntry. in the
East hairdressers continue to insist 1t
is passe. If you want to make it
easier to manage, you might have
some Of 1t cut out and off.
1 like bobbed hair very much on
some people, and I appreciate your de-
sire for comfort. I cannot give you
definite advice, however, as I never
have seen you. Here is some general
advice: Don't bob unless you are
young, fairly small and have girlish
face.
2. The golden browns that are so
good this autumn should suit you to
perfection. In fact, the only color for
you to avoid probably is red.

I don't understand that for Jack

he is not gambling in stocks. In the

FRANCE DELEGATES MEMORIAL
TO u. S. SOLDIERS

A memorial monument was dedi-
Gated in Paris ON July 4th as a tri-
butte to the American volunteers who
Joined the French Army during the
World War. The monument is a
bronze figure of an American volun-
teer in the French uniform. 1t was
sculptored by Jean Boucher, and
bears the likeness of Alan Seegar,
the American poet-volunteer. On
the pedestal of the monument is in
scribed the names of the American
volunteers who died in the war.
The figure is represented as call
ing to Americans to the defense of
France. Alan Seegar's war poems
were rallying cries to the debt
America owed to France. and this
monument is also a tribute to his de-
Tense of the cause Of France. The
monument cost 100000 francs, and
was paid for by small contributions
voluntarily contributed all over
France.
