WAR EFFORT TO AFFECT EyERY0NE
 SAYS t0PJTEAD

All talk heard in the States at this time is of the war and the overwhelming need for everyone to forget personal gains and desires and get behind the government in order to win the war, R. C. Oopstead, owner of the 20th Century Meat Market said today upon his re- turn from a business trip of over month to the States.
 People in the States are far more war conscious than residents of Juneau and it is really a relief to get home" MT. Copestead said.
 There will be many changes here in the way of merchandising and it will be necessary for every one to learn to take things as they come until the war is won.
 Alaska is now getting far more in the way of supplies particularly in the meat line than markets in the States This is mainly through the good graces of the War Ship ping Administration that is allow ing cold storage shipping space for individual merchants.
 "One of the most acute shortages is that of labor, which is seriously a affecting our war effort. Men everywhere must realize that they must be prepared to quit all work that can be performed by women and get into war industries. Every where men and women are going to work to help in the vast program, needed if this war is to be won. Families are even putting children into schools. in order that all adults can help in the essential industries.
 T found the tendency everywhere, especially among business men and company officials, to put all thought of personal gain or comfort aside in order to offer everything in the way of time, energy or financial strength into the urgent effort tc win the war" MT. Copstead said

STYLE Show Reflects
Lowly Fabrics Use

A preview of spring and summer
styles held in Chicago recently
showed the $4,000 buyers from II
states that they were going to carry
home an array of chambrays, cali
cos and denims in Women's and chill
dren's fashions. For these lowly
fabrics have come into their own
because of the influence of war.
Style and practicability are still
the theme in these fashions, for the
designers have kept their eye on
both national defense needs, and the
desires of millions of women pur-
chasers in stores throughout the ma
ton. Dresses, garden costumes,
play clothes and work uniforms-all
have been styled by the designers
to reflect the signs of the times.
Until manufacturers run out Of
twills and such fabrics which are
fashioned into foundation garments,
girdles are here to stay, despite the
rubber shortage.
Priorites on tin and other defense
needs have caused tie fastenings
instead of hooks and eyes, zippers,
buttons and clasps to be substituted
Everything in garments has taken
on the practical atmosphere. Every
thing except the hostess coat which
still remains silken and luxurious.

all-around box pleats below deep
hip yoke.
The costume shown to the right
in the above illustration con-
veys the most welcome and highly
important style news, that the bo-
lero costume has returned in all its
glory to the fashion picture. You
will see boleros played up through
out the style program this season.
In this case self-color eyelet en-
broidery Celebrates the bolero jack
ct of a two-piece navy sheer cos
tune. The bodice, softly draped at
the top, is pink.
To the left above in the picture is
shown two-piece dress that uses
a shantung weave, combining white,
orange and brown in daring con-
trast. The separate skirt features
box pleats from hip yoke. Box
pleats are really newer than side
pleating. Eminently correct for a
wartime "suit wedding is the
creamy beige sheer ensemble at the
top right in the above illustration.
The full-length coat looks like
dress but is really wide pleated
skirt scanned to jacket top, with
self-covered buttons down the front
from neck to hemline. Finely pleat-
ed bowknots trim the four slot pock-
cts that adorn jacket and skirt. The
dress worn under this coat repeats
the pleated skirt of the coat, while
gathered bodice fullness DEVELOPS
from deep yoke.
Generally speaking, the favorite
silhouette is the long torso effect
with some sort of pleated skirt. Also,
there is much interest in slim wrap
around skirts and those which have
slenderizing harem Grapes.

This dress has two very important
style messages to convey. The one
is the coming vogue for allover en-
broidery on wool, or rayons and cot
tons that look like wool. The other
is the news that simple wool frocks
will be finished off at the hemline
with founce Flounces are among
the ways designers are contriving
to add a prettily feminine note to
simple daytime frocks. In the smart
est dress collections you will see
flounces conspicuously featured. The
gown pictured in the above illustra-
ton is of soft beige wool with bright
green embroidered diamond dots. 1t
has softly nodded waistline, set-in
belt and, Of course, the flounce!

IN DISCUSSING and planning for
L program of timely dress for
women during the war period, it has
been definitely conceded by every
one concerned in fashion industries
and design that in order to render
the highest service women must see
to it that they are an inspiration in
appearance as we'll as in deed.
This sentiment is reflected in the
charming costumes illustra ted
above. These models, selected from
a galaxy designed and displayed by
the style creators of Chicago in
their spring shoWings, are just the
sort that women will love to wear
and soldiers will take delight in see
ing.
Gay in color and young in feeling
is the ensemble shown to the left in
the foreground of the above illustra-
ton. Here a navy coat in spun
rayon and wool mixture is worn
over a red and white printed crepe
frock. The self-fabric ties, tipped
with little plastic dice, repeat the
print motif of the dress, thus max
ing a new-looking closing for the
coat. White saddle stitching trims
pockets, sleeves and the red leather
applique on the coat front.
To the right in the foreground
novelty striped print in white and
red on green ground is paired with
a bright red spun rayon and wool
jacket. Self fabric ruching trims the
