Tyler, Accredited Repres entative of the Committee on Pub ublic Information. PARIS, France, Sept. 28.—I have reached this city, after a ten day's voyage, which was, for the most part, uneventful. We experienced delightful weather from the time we steamed out of New York's harbor until we cast anchor in a port over here. Had it not been for the democratic spirit prevailing aboard the big liner, and which gave me a most satisfactory taste of this "world democracy" for which the allies are fighting, I might have considered the voyage monotonous. Aboard the ship was quite a galaxy of notable writers for the big dallies and magazines; feature and fiction writers who were taking a respite from that occupation to write "straight stuff" for dallies they are to represent. Among them were celebrities like Will Irwin, Robert W. Ritchie, Damon Runyon, H. J. Foreman, erstwhile managing editor of Collier's, and Applegarth, usually known as "Appy" by the pencil pushers and readers, of the Pittsburg Post. Each and everyone of these notable writers—former newspaper reporters, seemed to have made an especial effort to make me forget—which ledid—that my skin was several shades darker than theirs, and by so doing to convince me that this "world democracy" for which the allies are fighting is neither a barren ideality nor a rainbow vision, but an actual probability whose advance courier is discernible with the naked eye. The treatment accorded me by the newspaper men aboard was but typical of the treatment accorded me by all the other passengers. Among the nearly two thousand souls making up the ship's passenger list were many Red Cross, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A., Knights of Columbus and Salvation Army workers. These all displayed a most notable evidence of a healthy spirit of democracy by their fraternizing as if they were all members of the one and same organization. Among the Y. M. C. A. workers aboard were five Colored secretaries; Fritz P. Cansler, of Knoxville, Tenn., Thomas M. Clayton, of Piqua, Ohio, F. L. Clark, of Leavenworth, Kan., D. D. Mattocks, of Philadelphia, and G. W. Jackson, of Louisville, Ky. The Y. M. C. A. certainly made no mistake in selecting these five men for overseas duty, for they represent the highest type in the race, and by their bearing won the respect, and even admiration of all on board the ship. Diversions by Service Battalion Aboard Ship. Aboard the ship, also, was a Colored service battalion belonging to an engineer regiment. They were stout, husky fellows whose good humor was effervescent, even contagious; and their rollocking songs and plantation melodies cheered all, making them, those whose thoughts had involuntar- State Hist. & Nat Hist Hoe State House the Only Relia COLORA WAR CORRES- RIVES IN FRANCE THE FRONT FOR NEWS OF OUR AND TO TELL OF THEIR WORLD DEMOCRACY.

One of the songs which they frequently sang and with a gusto which gave further notice of their 100 per cent Americanism, and which never failed to elicit rapturous applause from the white passengers, was "Three Months from Now We Will Be in Germany." I had heard it said that the big waters frightened Colored soldiers, but these Colored soldiers aboard the ship I sailed appeared as contented, self-centered, and care-bereft on the big ship at night, when lights were out, as they were down in Alabama, Virginia, Mississippi and other southern states from whence most of them came. Their contentment at sea, and when in the submarine zone, constituted another disillusion. Among these troopers were some clever boxers, and the monotony of "just sky and water" was frequently broken by some rattling boxing matches between these troop- 1910 [Name] SENATOR-ELECT OF COLORADO.

DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1918 ers for pretty substantial purses which the white passengers contributed merely out of admiration and respect for these big, brave black boys, who did not fear to come over here to fight for world democracy. An amusing incident took place the second day out. Forty or fifty of the Colored soldiers had formed a circle and were singing to their hearts' delight, and the delight of the passengers. One of them, seemingly, changed his voice with each song or hymn. "What do you sing?" called down, from the upper deck, a good natured son of the Emerald Isle. Quick as a flash came the answer: "Sometimes I sing bass and sometimes I sing soprano." And it was true, for in the chorus he adapted himself to the type of the song he was singing, to the circumstance, to the other singers, and above all, perhaps, to his mood. Because they were light-hearted—cheerful when going across the big waters, it must not be accepted that they were merely light-hearted because of lack of brain development, for many among them were bright, intelligent men, graduates of Howard university and other accredited schools. Off to the Front for News of "Our Boys." I shall tarry but a day or two here in Paris; only until I get my itinerary made out, and then I shall be off to the front where our Colored soldiers are stationed, and I go to the front with the same absence of fear that characterized the Colored troopers who sailed for France on the ship with me. In my next letter I hope to have been able to secure some real, permissible, news about what the Col- [Image of a man with a mustache and a suit] of Coloradoans to represent them in nation's seat deeply conscious of the being aware of the responsibility restrocate Colorado's rights and intended the asset to the nation's progress and a party that will be in the order of in-ings he will endeavor to do in honor him by the people he represents. A The Colorado Statesman on behalf of ored soldiers—our boys—have done, and are doing to maintain the race's traditional reputation for bravery, endurance and patriotism, and to help "make the world safe for democracy." If this world democracy we are fighting for is like the sample I have been made acquainted with, from New York to Paris, I have no doubt what they are putting up a whaling good fight to land the democracy pennant for the United States—our own, and only country. THE NEGRO PRESS Dr. R. R. Moton in speaking before the National Negro Business League touched on the subject of the Negro Press of the country. His sentiments are the same which the much abused colored press has been trying to impress on our people since the first publication of a colored paper! Our people only realize the value of a colored journal when they want a personal mention or a personal favor, and mere their interest ends. In our advancement along other lines we have failed to keep stride with other races in the support of the very papers which are doing so much for our uplift, and fighting our battles, which may seem to think can be done without money or price. Below we quote a few extracts from his talk: "First: We must make up our minds pretty clearly that we have got to stand behind our newspapers. These publications have fought our battles for right and justice and they have rarely omitted an act, or overlooked an opportunity to help, both as to co-operation in business and among business men. They have urged our people to support Negro business enterprises and have pointed out that the only certain road to progress is the opening up of business avenues for the young men and women of the race. No group among our people has been more persistent, more patient, more far-sighted, more self-sacrificing than have the publishers of our newspapers. They have worked against great odds, with greatest handicaps, and sometimes, I fear, with least appreciation. We must stand behind them with subscriptions, with advertisements, and with whole-hearted support. I would like to see a movement started among these newspapers in a great effort to secure advertising of the more important kind." It is true that the Negro Press staggers under a greater handicap than any enterprise conducted by our people and in many cases the only reason for its existence is the race love and self-sacrifice which the editors and publishers have for the race. Knowing the potential influence which the press exerts for good or evil, the only reward is a deed done and a battle against the wrongs of the race fought for those whose appreciation and support seems to grow less. We entreat all race leaders and lovers, in all stations of life to advocate the support of the Colored press that it may continue to let the world know about the progress made by ourselves. —Editorial, St. Luke's' Herald. Kearney, Neb., Oct. 31.—Prominent Negroes of the United States are developing a vision of the redemption of Africa by the Colored people of this country, and indeed it is not a very far vision, any more than has been the dream of the Jews to reassemble their race in Palestine which is now approaching fulfillment. Many strange things will happen when this war is ended. [Picture of a man in a suit with a mustache]. CONGRESSMAN, FIRST DISTRICT. William N.

New York, Oct. 29.—Announcement was made this week by the Personnel Division of the Young Men's Christian Association that there are ninety colored secretaries in camps and twenty-eight overseas. The general impression prevails that by the first of the year the number of colored Y. M. C. A. secretaries doing war work will exceed the century mark. was questioned by five interpreters and proved his complete familiarity with English, French, Spanish, German, Russia, Polish, the Scandinavian languages, Italian Greek, Arabian, Turkish, Hebrew and a number of dialects. His proficiency in Hebrew is particularly complete, as he studied at one time for rabbinical orders. An officer of the examining board, This work is one of the reasons the Y. M. C. A. will hold a campaign for funds the week of Nov. 11-18. At that time the Y. M. C. A., with six other welfare-organizations, the Y. W. C. A. National Catholic War Council and Knights of Columbus, Jewish Welfare Board, War Camp Community Service, American Library Association and Savation Army, will ask the people for $170,500,000 to carry on their work. A NEGRO JEWISH ITALIAN AMERICAN. Cross Breed Has No Living Equal as a Linguist. Camp Upton, N. Y., Oct. 31.—David Ben Isaac de Kellscritta, a private at Camp Upton, is a Jew, a Negro, a blood relative of King Menelik, born in Italian Somaliland and before becoming a citizen of the United States was a naturalized Italian. In a recent examination conducted for the purpose of determining his fitness for an assignment in the intelligence department of the army he actors of Colorado have shown on more choice for the position he has now re-s military training help to keep within anything advantageous to Colorado and act to combat with the questions of presented to him, and fearless in his constituency in Colorado, he will be his party..

His proficiency in Hebrew is particularly complete, as he studied at one time for rabbinical orders. An officer of the examining board, who is a college professor in private life, declared he believed Kellscritta to have no living equal as a linguist. MORE NEGROES RECEIVE COM- MISSIONS Little Rock, Ark., Oct. 31.—At the closing exercises of the Infantry Division of the Central Officers' Training School at Camp Pike, Little Rock, Ark., 107 Colored men, representing nearly every state in the Union, received commissions as second lieutenants. Capt. Garrison, the instructor in charge of the school, said that the young men had exceeded all expectations and had met conditions as they were in the most cheerful and confident manner and that they had mounted the military ladder of training round by round, showing a degree of proficiency that compared most favorably with their fellows. Their conduct in camp and city was most praiseworthy. They came from all walks of life, from college down. NO. 3.

IN offering congratulation to the successful candidates of the Republican party on behalf of the citizens of Denver, we are not unmindful of the fact that it comes with a double pleasure at this time, as owing to unavoidable conditions they were greatly handicapped in presenting the cause of the Republican party at a time when the utmost caution was necessary to avoid conflicting with the drastic war measures regulating the conduct of citizens regarding speech and action. The epidemic which has been causing such an increased mortality throughout our land created obstructions compelling the omission of assemblies, public meetings, etc.—the usual mediums of instruction to the public, and depending on the press and correspondence to advocate their mission in this important campaign. We were not slow or did we hesitate to place the entire columns of THE COLORADO STATESMAN at their disposal to assist in emphasizing the wisdom of returning our party to power—the only power that has brought success to this nation and kept it prepared to meet any emergency, small or great. Seeing therefore that our help has resulted in the election of nearly the whole ticket, and our motto THE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN, unmixed with any other element which we have for over thirty years advocated, our influence found acceptance among the masses, who rising to the occasion of good and firm leadership gave such an immediate and obedient response to President Wilson's request to the nation—PARTY FIRST (in his last letter to the American people pleading for the return of Democrats to Congress who could only help to carry out his propaganda) that we redoubled our efforts and as one of the leading western newspapers of and for the people, assisted in bringing a victory unprecedented in the political ranks of Colorado to the only party—THE REPUBLICAN PARTY—that can safely be entrusted with the government of this country for good and the successful shaping of its destiny, upholding the national dignity and integrity it is our privilege to enjoy. We can compare this change in our own state affairs to a reconstruction period that will find its greater usefulness in the national body to be controlled by our party, when any attempt to interfere or alter the Constitution of this country to create internal disturbances, engender strife resulting in the entertainment of hate among the various classes and races of our citizenry will be quickly suppressed, and anything beneficial to the nation will be readily approved and carried into effect for the good of the whole. Knowing the ability of these men just elected for leadership, and being familiarized with their spirit of fair play in their respective business spheres, we cannot but offer again our congratulations for a very successful term, the period of which will prove beyond a doubt that Colorado in her choice of officials to govern her affairs made a selection of which we are justly proud, and which will win the admiration and approbation of our sister states. REPUBLICAN PARTY GETS ENDORSEMENT AS NATION'S CHOICE. THE VOICE OF THE PEOPLE was heard above the din of war last Tuesday when by a very wide margin, Colorado returned to the fold of the Republican party, making full restitution for her wrongs in the years she yielded to the dictatorship of the Democratic party, and resolving to profit by past experience, SHE MAKES A NEW START. The people of this state in expressing their disapproval of the present administration have returned four Senators and twelve Representatives of the Legislature, two Supreme Court Judges, Attorney General, State Treasurer, Auditor, five District Judges, two Regents of the State University, Lieutenant Governor, Governor, and the very important positions of Congressman and Senator. Having therefore a working majority, Colorado looks forward to the most harmonious action, as well as the strongest combination in the performance of effective and successful work, in winning for her the recognition she merits and placing her in a position to obtain as other states a fair share in the manufacturing and commercial life of the country. This victory of the Republican party at this time means the shouldering of a very grave responsibility and we as electors must not content ourselves with our present success, but continue our activities thereby strengthening our leaders and representatives at home, enabling them to advocate our cause successfully in the greater issues that must confront them in this critical period of the world's history. He was a great man in offering himself to lead in a political fight beneficial to his people and country, and was elected by a large majority, and in thankking his supporters for the kind turn, included in his expressions the following: "Now that you have elected me, may I not ask that you go with me every step of the way so that I can feel your very presence and spirit accompanying me and your intellect and wisdom guiding me in the working out of this stupendous task which lies before me?" The affirmative response made him one of the greatest leaders of the world with the support of a constituency thoroughly trained to combat with the momentous questions of the day. Result: Growth of his people, development of his country, an absence of crime, a desirable people and place to be associated with—a veritable heaven on earth. This leader lived and died a greater man than at the time of his election. Will we emulate this leader and cause history to repeat itself, so that our state may stand conspicuously as a power for brilliant achievements in the nation? THE COLORADO STATESMAN is sure this can be done, and joining heartily in the pleasure afforded us, Republican followers and supporters who go down with our party to defeat and rise with it to victory as at present, our slogan must be the stability of our party and the working in common for a permanent relationship of citizenship resulting in the correction of all ills among us, and a destruction of all agencies of evil that tend to disrupt the peace, good-will and harmony of this great and powerful nation whose influence helps to shape the destiny of the world. Congratulating ourselves on the victory we have achieved, the Republican party filled with gratitude for the confidence shown by the American public bows in admiration and obedience to THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE. SAVE FOOD AT SOURGE OF ITS PRODUCTION SAVE FOOD AT SOURGE OF ITS PRODUCTION Food Board Issues Special Call for Farmers' Aid. Faced with the gravest food problem that ever a nation was taxed with, the United States Government, through its Food Administration, has issued a special appeal to farmers in whose hands lie the greatest power of food saving. From a harvest less in aggregate production than last year the United States must export 12 million tons of food more than her normal, pre-war exports. This means that out of the crops of each average American farm two tons more than usual of food must be sent overseas. Before food can be shipped it must be saved, and because of the large quantity of foodstuffs stored in granaries, cribs and barns of farms the farmers' opportunity for food saving is correspondingly great. "Every farm is a food munition plant," says Herbert Hoover. Menacing this food munition plant, its stores of food and its live stock are FIRE, BAD WEATHER, PESTS and DISEASE. The Food Administration, in its special 1919 farm conservation program, urges that every farmer—Remove inflammable rubbish, plow fireguards, use care with matches, lanterns and stoves; install fire-fighting equipment of even a crude kind in a definite place for instant use. Store all foodstuffs under shelter as soon as harvested; keep roofs of barns, cribs and granaries repaired. Kill rats and other pests at their breeding places. Prevent stock losses through disease by housing all live stock comfortably, feeding regularly and giving them constant, watchful care. GOVERNMENT AID FOR LIVE STOCK INDUSTRY. H. H. Tompkins, Jr., head of the live stock division of the U. S. Food Administration for Colorado, has been informed by the War Finance Corporation that two Cattle Loan Agencies have been established—one at Kansas City and one at Dallas—both of which have been instructed to receive applications from stockmen for direct loans from the corporation. Colorado stockmen who feel that they cannot get the necessary accommodation through the regular channels should forward to the Cattle Loan Agency of the War Finance Corporation at Kansas City their application for direct government loans. YOUR BULLETIN IS OUT THIS WEEK. Addressing an audience of 135,000 people—perhaps more—this week, through the medium of the Official Bulletin for Colorado, Federal Food Administrator Stearns is calling attention to matters of vital interest as regards the greatest undertaking of the hour—supplying the Allies and the armies with food from the United States. What it means to ship 17,550,000 tons of food to Europe in one fiscal year, conditions affecting wheat marketing, the early-closing movement, potato requirements, milk and beef supplies the "home card" and the futility of regarding peace talk as altering the food program are subjects contained in this edition of the effectively printed eight-page publication which the Food Administration is now issuing monthly. It required an entire day's run of one of the swiftest perfecting presses in Denver to produce the October issue of the Buffetin which county food administrators throughout the state are busy this week distributing among the citizens. Colorado is the only state which issues a publication on food matters for the perusal of consumers. INFLUENZA PATIENTS TO HAVE EXTRA SUGAR. "Flu" victims need more sugar in their diet, if they are to be made well, than the average healthy person needs. Therefore the Food Administration for Colorado has been given authority from Washington to issue permits for extra sugar for sick folks upon the recommendation of the doctors in charge of the cases. During the Colorado canning season, closed October 31, there were issued by the Food Administration approximately 265,000 permits on which 2,195-301 pounds of sugar were purchased up to the 18th of the month. Based on the amount of sugar used, it is believed that very close to 9,000,000 pints of fruit have been "put up" by Colorado's "kitchen conservationists." MINCE PIE ON MENU AGAIN. Help yourself to mince pie and hash! Restaurants may now serve the following dishes formerly forbidden by General Order No. 4 of the new eating house regulations issued by the Food Administration: Mince pie, larded sweetbreads, larded fillet of beef, hash, goulash, meat cakes, meat pies, liver and bacon, chicken and Virginia ham, club sandwiches. Patrons of restaurants may also each order at one time a variety of sandwiches containing different kinds of meat. The order stating that one kind of meat only shall be served at one time to one person was modified because of the conservation that can be effected by combining left-overs of two kinds of meat into a savory meat dish Sales Daily at 2 p.m. Office Furniture a Specialty.

THE COLORADO STATESMAN Owing to a strike among the press-feeders of the Western Newspaper Union, we were with other newspapers tied up.

Mrs. Taylor Lowe received the sad news Wednesday of the death of her brother, who died in Laramie, Wyo., of pneumonia. Mrs. Lowe left immediately after receiving the news. A bequest of $1,000 to Charles A. Burton was included in the will of the late Joseph A. Thatcher which has been filed for probate. For many years Mr. Burton was an employe in the Thatcher family. Y. M. AND Y. W. C. A. IN GREAT WAR WORK DRIVE. Beginning with next Monday and continuing through the week and up to the evening of October 18th, the Y. M. and Y. W. C. A. of the nation will begin a campaign to raise their war work budget for 1919. Denver's quota is about $600,000. A large number of white and colored workers have banded themselves together to raise this sum. Our people should respond generously to this appeal, for the colored soldier on the battlefield is cared for by these organizations the same as the white soldier. A chance is going to be given every colored citizen to contribute. No amount will be considered too small to give. Let us all get ready to receive the workers when they call. CAMMEL & CO.

When the croquet fans woke up Wednesday morning and saw what had happened overnight, some of them sighed heavily at the thought that their favorite sport had come to an end for this season. With the reopening of the city the regular activities for the season will be taken up just as soon as possible. After having been closed for six weeks it will take some little time to get things well under way again, but a beginning will be made at once. Bible class studies will be commenced, the glee club rehearsals resumed and social features brought on. By way of getting our Sunday meetings in action again, a service of thanksgiving and praise will be rendered at the Y building tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon at 4 o'clock. At that meeting praise and thanksgiving will be rendered for the wonderful deliverance of our people as a whole from the terrible ravages of the influenza. Dr. Westbrook, Dr. Terry and Dr. Huff will tell why in their opinion so few colored people had the disease. The great $200,000,000 drive will open next Monday the 11th and will close on the 18th. The object of the organizations is to raise this sum for the war work budget for 1919. Our Y. M. and Y. W. will take part in the campaign. During the week it will be the intention of the workers to visit every colored person in Denver. For Rent—Neatly furnished rooms, light and airy, all conveniences. On car line.

William Price, employé of the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company, left last Wednesday for a trip to Montana and northwest points with the Great Western Sugar Company. Mr. Price, who is accredited with the fame of "always able to please" in his capacity as chef, is in demand and bids fair to eclipse all previous services. Our popular friend, Dave Douglas, accompanied him. APPRECIATION. My hearty appreciation for the support given me by my assistants and co-workers of the County Central Committee, and all Republicans who were untiring in their efforts and zealous for the cause of success of the Republican ticket in this extraordinary election is herein expressed, and I only trust that the special interest exhibited in this campaign for harmony and the solidarity of our organization will be perpetuated and the confidence reposed in me in guiding its affairs in the future may never be shaken. W. A. DOLLISON, Chairman County Central Committee. Denver, Colo. Mr. Lewis Gordon, father of our popular matron, Mrs. Wilkenson, of Twenty-sixth and Glenarm Place, made a trip from Fort Worth to accompany Mrs. Gordon to her home. Mrs. Gordon was in very poor health for some time and owing to her unimproved condition here, it was necessary to return to Fort Worth. The friends of Mrs. Wilkerson, who is popular in church and club circles, offer their sympathy over her mother's illness. Another batch of workers left last Monday evening for the Pittsburg gun works, among them our friend, James Mason, of 2352 Humboldt, and many others. Miss Willette Williamson and Miss Belle Southern left for Chicago this week for an indefinite stay. Their many friends wish them every success in their new location and hope they will not forget former Denver pleasant associations. Now that all indications point to a speedy return of lasting world peace, after nearly four and one-half years of almost unbelievably destructive warfare, the attention of national leaders in all countries is being turned to great reconstruction problems and to the development of natural resources that will aid in the work of reconstruction. Perhaps no state in the Union offers a wider variety of such natural resources needing development than Colorado, and the campaign for making proper examinations and surveys to determine their location, extent and adaptability is already under way. The State Board of Immigration has collected much general information about the possibilities of the uncultivated arable areas of the state and the location and character of various mineral deposits, but its experience in carrying on this work has emphasized the necessity for legislation that will make it possible to obtain the necessary official data with more accuracy and less difficulty. Arrangements now are being made for the introduction into the next legislature of measures which will make possible closer co-operation between the state, on the one hand, and various county, municipal and federal agencies on the other, in the compilation of data to aid in directing capital to proper and profitable fields for investment in Colorado, not only in agricultural development but in opening up for use many of the valuable mineral deposits of the state.

The Indians report the existence of lakes a hundred miles and over that long in Yukon that no white man has ever seen, while even the Indians apparently know nothing of the as yet unrodden Mackenzie mountains.

Originally, decimation was a military punishment of the Romans, who dealt with large bodies of rebels, prisoners or mutinous soldiers by executing one man in ten. In popular use today, decimation means the destruction of a large proportion of anything; as, "the epidemic has decimated the population," or "the Prussian guards were decimated at Verdun."

Brown Shoe Phone Champa 455 W. H. PRITCHETTE Mgr. DENVER, COLORADO A Four Hats, Simple and Smart Four Hats, Simple and Smart I The debutante and her youthful friends are entitled to a few of the keen joys of life, even in war times. With sweethearts oversens, or in training camps, and days filled with war work and letter writing, she certainly earns the heart-healing joy that is to be gathered from a new party frock. And the party frock is easier to make at the home than other frocks, excepting, of course, house dresses; it is for this reason not an extravagance in war times. A very pretty model is illustrated here of a frock that ought to inspire any girl with a desire to make it for herself. Crepe georgette, plain and printed, a little taffeta silk and a bit of embroidery in silk make up its analysis so far as materials are concerned. All the sewing, including the long-stitch embroidery, is simple enough. There is an underslip of thin silk to begin with, with a baby waist which takes the place of a corset cover. The skirt of the frock is of Four Hats, Sim These hats are distinctly youthful in design—the breezy young American is written in their smart lines and simple construction. Most of the hats of this character are made of silk or satin—satin is, in fact, in the ascendent—but they may be made of other fabrics, as broadcloth, duvety, velvet, and occasionally fur fabrics, or other of the soft and very pliable materials which are used in coats and frocks. For the young woman at school a more appropriate little group could hardly be assembled than the four models shown above. At the top a sprightly small hat is made of satin. It has a soft crown and narrow brim plaited and turned up at the front. Two strands of those colored wooden beads that milliners have so often found a place for on this season's hats are festooned across the front. The tam in all sorts of interpretations, from the most casual to the most dignified of styles, appears in millinery for both maid and matron. At the left a tam made of navy blue taffeta reminds one of the flat hats of the navy. It has a corded band about the head and many girls can plain crepe georgette hanging straight from a gathered waistline, and the low-necked bodice is of taffeta, suik embroidered in motifs at each side. It slips over a chemisette of lace with a collar at the back that disappears under the bodice—a very new and pleasing feature that adds to the becomingness and appropriateness of the frock. an overskirt of wide lace falls to the hem of the crepe skirt and is partially covered with an overdrape of lovely printed crepe georgette. It will be noticed that the skirt is quite long and the neck only moderately low. If there is one thing more than another that returning conquering heroes will admire in the American girls they are prepared to adore it will be a pretty modesty in dress. They will come back prepared to make comparisons. They are already convinced that the Americans are the prettiest and sweetest girls in the world and the girls must see to it that they don't change their minds. ple and Smart wear this shape becomingly. At the right a silk hat has a fine plaited frill about the face and plaited ribbon—pulled out so that only the marks of the plaits are left—is tied about the base of the crown. Hats like these are made in colors to match suits and frocks, or in blacks. Very dark brown and black hold commanding positions in youthful millinery, and these hats are expected to do much service. The remaining hat is a dresser bit of girlish headwear. Its underbrim is faced with shirred crepe georgette, and loops of ribbon cover the smooth fabric on the upper brim, which might be either satin or velvet. Having gone to the extravagance of looped ribbons and shirrings, this hat conserves in the matter of trimming and makes a silk ornament and tassel a faultless finish. Julia Bottomley Friendship.
