Beach, chiet of engineers, U. -8. Army, announces the formation of the Society of American Military En- jneers. ‘i’l'he society, which is nation-wide in its scope, aims to include in l}s membership all men who served inm Engineer Organizations of the United States army during the world war, either as officials or enlisted men, at home or abroad. It will also in- clude technical engineers Who serv- ed in other arms or branches. ) The prrpose of the Soclety are two- fold: to serve as a bond of union be- tween its members, perpetuating the friendships of the service; and to pro- mote the National Defense, by capit- alizing the experiences of the war and keeping its members in touch with developments in engineering which affect the conduct of war and the military policy of the nation. The society issues an interesting ! llustrated journal, “The Military Engineer,” which contains articles on both clvil and military subjects, records of the experfences ol the war, and news of gemeral interest to the engineering profession. TLocal posts or sections will be form- od in various parts of the country. All engineer soldiers of the late war are b invited to join. : Information may be obtained from i the nearest U. S.

All of us are going to see, it we live long enough, a new type of pitcher, not new in the semse tnat there never have been any like it in the past, but new in the sense that we have not had many like it in the immediate past. ‘When we can get our small boys, who would be the big pitchers some day, to emulate such men as Clark- son, Keefe, Welch, King, McCormick, Goldsmith, Corcoran, Nichols, Young —the list would be very much long- er than that were it necessary to cite more names—we will begin to have 4 baseball in which human intelli- ” gence has taken a plunge back again N the realm of smocks and blouses, which has grown to be as important as any in the world of dress for wom- en. the alder women rejolce in many dignitied and brilliant garments that are exactly suited to them. Some of these, especially among smocks, are 80 rich and heantiful that they deserve to he called superh. Blouses are as varled in character as hats and are de- signed for morning. afternoon and din- ner dress, employing the same fabrics that are used for sheer gowns. Very fine voiles, batiste, organdie, swiss and other cottoms, with wash silks, fill the requirements for wash- able biouses; georgette and crepe-de- chine for the dressier ones maintain their supremacy. Blouases of each of these materials, as pictured above, illustrate models that are liked for wear with suits and for informal aftdirnoon dress. The lighter blouse is made of gray crepe- de-chine and fastens on the shoulder and under one of the plaits at the side. Very small, flat covered buttons are set on the deep plaits at each side and a design in silk embroidery decorates the front. It is repeated in a smaller size on the sleeves. There are narrow tucks over the shoulders. Dark blue and tan color make a good combination for the blouse of georgette crepe. The plum and purple shades with beige, look well, also black and white in this model. Coler combinations are 1 matter of indi- vidual choice. The lizhter color is used for the underblouse and is left uncov- ered by the overh:ouse in & narrow R -Pleasing: to Older Women into the middle of the diamond. The “freak” pitchers have made their rep- utations in their time, but they will always be classified as “freak’” pitch- ers. They never will enjoy the fame in the baseball world which began with a performance like that of Al- bert G. Spaulding, who won game af- ter game when brains and control of the ball were real tests of a pitcher’s ability.

O O L R TSRO i O T LTI L Spring is a season of preparation. ,The fields are planted; cities plan and build; factories enlarge for greater production; stores brighten up for bigger business; and homes are built, en- larged and improved, inside and out, prepara- tory to a year of health, happiness, comfort and convenience. For your guidance we suggest a few items to be remembetred in improving your home: First of all, if it is not already wired for elec- tricity ,arrange for that prime improvement at once. . And if yours is already a modern electric home, givé heed to these points: (1) - Renew all blackened and burned-out lamps. New MAZDAS give better light—use less current. x (2) Have your fans cleaned and oiled; pre- pare them for a season of constant use. (3) See that all cords and plugs on perco- lator, toaster, grill, cleaner, iron, washer, etc., are in good shape. A few cents spent in minor repairs now will prevent annoying delay when service is most needed. i (4) Arrange for convenient outlets where household appliances may be attached more easily. The expense is slight. (5) Decide which appliances you lack which would make for greater convenience and econ- omy for years to come; then add at least one such appliance to your equipment each month until your home is completely electrified. Come to us for advice on all electrical mat- ters connected with your home or business. We are here to serve you, and will serve you, and will serve you gladly, if you.will give us the opportunity.
