STANDARD STYLES
IN CLOTHES

E7RS. JOHN D. SHERMAN,
IMI president of the Federation
@ Of Women's Club, which
just concluded it's biennial council
meeting at West Baden Qnd)
favors a standardized dress for
women. She believes it would be
economy.
Women pay so much for their
clothes, because merchants don't
know whether a style will last
three months or a year." she said.
MEMS styles don't change so they
get clothes much cheaper"
True. for the moment. mans
garb seems standardized. Women
dress to be seen while men dress
not to be seen. But that is merely
a temporary eclipse Of the male.
A few generations ago men
dressed like intoxicated raint -
and probably will do so IN.
Already he has jumped off he
reservation in the matter of ok
wear and golf stockings. Purple
ruffled pants. and individual styles
may be just around the corner.
Standardized women's clothes is
an iridescent dream. No two
women could agree on a standard
style and no mere man could ar
bitrate the dispute and survive.
Perhaps standard. long-lived
style in feminine apparel would
promote economy. However If
economy is the important con-
sideration why not discard cloth
ing altogether and save a lot Of
money! One could still express in
dividuality in inexpensive, sun-fast
tattooing.
The principal purpose of clothing
is qualification of human vanity.
That applies to both men and
women. And vanity is grAtified by
wearing something stunning,
different and individual.

IWI hind the refusal of Governor
- Richie for Maryland to take
official part in the Defense Day test
on July a is seen the politics Of al.
inside army fight which is now COM
ing to head.
Some Of the big boys in the War
Department, General Pershing
among them, are strong advocates
of the Citizen army" while others,
backed by the sympathy of Secre-
tary Weeks, are known as "old
army men," sharing the feeling of
the National Guardsmen and the
Regular Army for the Reserve Corps
composed, they say, Of a lot If Off
GERS and exceedingly few privstes.
The old army men say that in
case of war the criticism in General
Emery Upton's army Bible that
our trouble has been dependence on
raw militia and unframed volunteers
would still hold good.
In Secretary Weeks last annual
report to the President, he pointed
out that conducting the Citizens
Military Training Camps in the sum-
mer time took the attention Of
10000 of the $4,000 enlisted men in
the combat corps and Of 5000 Of
the less than 1000 combat officers
Weeks said that instead of train
ing citizens these officers and men
should be training themselves.
Defense day is primarily a reserve
corps proposition. On that day the
reserve officers justify their com
missions. 10 most cases, so the I'M
friendly element predicts, there will
be about $50 Nofficers marching with

$50 privates. They say the Regular
Army will march in orderly fashion,
likewise the aNtional Guardsmen but
when the reserve officers give their
commands, squads east and west"
their men will scatter to the four
points of the compass.
From the tone Of Ritchie's letter
1t looks as though the National
Guardsmen at least were beginning
to halk at participation in what they
consider a rather unframed display.
Richie, 1t is pointed out, has come
to his decision after comforting with

besides being head of the Maryland
National Guard, is also national head

There are boys peddling news

Confucius and Lao-Tse for the
Chinese (Confucianism and Taoism);

Why does a cake rise in the
middle instead of on the sides or
evenly all around when put in the
oven?
1t is usually due to the fact that
the oven is too hot. In tht case.
the heat browns the crust over the
top of the cake before it has pene-
trated to the center; later when the
heat reaches the center, the bubbles
of gas formed will burst out at the
weakest point.
From where IS the quotation:
Until the day break and the
shadows flee away" taken?
The Bible, in Song Of Solomon,
Chapter 2. seventeenth verse. and
Chapter a. sixth verse.
After whom was the Fahrenheit
thermometer named?
After Garbie Daniel Fahrenheit, a
German physicist and scientific in
strument maker. who invented an
areomeser. substituted mercury for
alcohol in the tubes of thermometers
and devised a thermometric scale.
Where is the city of Ushuaia?
It is the capital Of the Territory Of

1t is a miserable native village,
