The Time* WU1 Do that Job of Printing RIGHT
“When in doubt choose a jersey,”
is good advice if a new suit must be
bought in the late summer. Certain
of the arbiters of style are devoted to
this fabric and it is always represent
ed among the new models i* suits that
make their appearance as regularly as
. spring or fall approach. It led the
way for many of the new silk weaves
and silk fiber materials that have en
croached on its popularity for summer
wear, but in wool it remains an ideal
demi-season material. Its softness
and its unmussable quality, together
with the fine way in which it stands
cleaning, are strong points in its favor,
altogether, the wool jersey suit is a
good -thing to own.
Two models are shown above that
will be particularly interesting to
young women who must be outfitted
now for school or college. The smart
suit at the left foretells the cool days
of autumn with a collar and scarf of
angora, and has an original feature or
two that catch the attention. The
skirt is wider and shorter than those j
that appeared in the spring and has
a wide, overlapping seam down the
I back. It is gathered in about the
. waist line and finished with two bands
of wide braid about the hem. The
coat is straight, closing up the front
and split at the sides. A wider hand
1 - --—----—- - - i ..
I i
of braid across the back panel empha
sizes the fact that it is longer than the
front, and the long fringed scarf slips
through straps set on at each side.
These, and a plain belt that buttons in
tiie middle of the back, are new details
of making that are clever and attrac
tive.
A blue suit at the rigltf of the pic
ture follows closely the style that has
been so successful during the summer, j
with plain skirt and jacket with vest
front. This skirt also is wider than
those of the passing season, but among
those that hesitate to grow shorter.
The collar and cuffs are ornamented
with a braid that simulates embroi
dery and a band of it heads the set-in
pockets at each side. A girdle with
looped-over ends, finished with long
silk pendants, matches the braid used
for decoration, and a vest of Ameri
can Beauty fiber silk provide a happy
ending to the simple story of this
youthful model in between-seasons
suits. The taffeta hats shown with
them are of just the same character—
that is, they are neither of summer nor
winter, but of the times or climate be
tween.
SCOUTING IN SCHOOL FAVOR.
The superintendent of the public
schools at Athens O., Geoffrey F. Mor
gan, states that he considers it wise
to. release scouts from school in order
that they may assist in important
forms of civil service, such as the tak
ing of a food census, a clean-up cam
paign and similar public welfare
events.
Both high school and grade school
teachers in Athens are represented on
the court of honor of the local council
of the Boy Scouts of America. Spe
, cific subjects in the merit badge work
of scouts who aspire to become Eagle
scouts are assigned to different teach
ers who, for the most part, conduct the
merit badge tests. The principal of
the high school is chairman of the
Court of Honor.
“The scout movement here,” Mr.
Morgan says, “has the hearty support
and approval of the school people.”
BE A LEADER OF SCOUTS.
A weekly meeting of young business
men in Chicago was greatly impressed
by an address on the proper training
and guidance of the boy, by Chief
Scout Executive James E. West of the
Boy Scouts of America.
Among the most impressive state
ments the chief scout executive pre
sented were the facts that the future
of the nation lies in the boy, that the
scouting program develops responsi
bility, and that it is the boy’s leisure
time that must be utilized in the prop
er way. Therefore the man’s duty
to his country and to civilization h? to
become a leader of hoys.
Mr. West discussed at length the
accomplishments of the scouts both
individually and as an organized unit.
GEN. HAIG PRAISES SCOUTS.
Sir Bougies Haig, commander of the
British armies in France, said in a
letter to Dr. Charles D. Hart, chalr
' man of the Philadelphia Boy Scout
council:
“I have heard with great interest
and appreciation of the splendid work
performed by the Philadelphia hoy
scouts all through the war.
“In assisting to raise the Liberty
loan bonds, in governmental and civic
war work they have toiled with en
thusiasm.
“I feel certain they will set an ex
ample of patriotism and devotion to
duty to future generations of Ameri
can boys, and that the principles for
which we have been victoriously fight
• /ag wiil be safe in their hands.”
