\, FRIDAY, AUGUST 2, 1918 Sports Clothes And How to Wear Them | By Mrs. Vernon Castle \ Bathing Suits for Late Season N speaking of bathing suits I shall only describe a costume suitable and comfortable for swimming and will not touch on the unlimited number of designs and materials that can be used by those who “don't go near the water.” THEY can wear anything that the beach allows, 80 I shall try to describe to you a little bathing suit that I have worn for years that is both aed —— smart and comforta- ble and easy to make at home. In swimming one must have perfect freedom and thg fewer “trappings” the better. First of all I get a one-piece bathing sult, general ly of cotton, to which I have attached stockings; that fs, they are sewn on the bottom of the trunks, and if the ordinary length hose seems too short, one can buy lengths.” This makes a sort of Annette Kellermann suit and does away with garters and the usual difficnity of keeping stockings up in the water, Also there is no break be “opera apart and no bloomers | when wet, and fill with o be considered, v air when you dive, Over this Th at-like suit that buttons a own the fr and ekirt eing attac’ » with as ttle trimming and decoration as pos- sible.

Don't sprain your brain trying to figure out our placards, We only paste ‘em up to hide the dirt on the windows, Don't grab all the straps in sight’ Be democratic and share the suffering with others, Don't complain about the dust and dirt on the windows. There are villages in France that haven't even got windows to complain about. Don't get sore if you miss a train. You'd get twice as sore if you had got it. Don't squawk about the jolting, pushing, elbowing, crowding fostling, mangling, rioting, jabbing, wrestling and roughhousing Every time you open your mouth you're liable to get an elbow in it Don’t ask a guard to repeat the name of a station, Scrambled eggs are always scrambled eggs and it will sound the same the time. second Don't get rattied on a local.

OUR BIRTHDAY. To-morrow will be the pewter anniversary of the busting open of the subway.

We admit that the subway doesn't come under the classification of fon and amusement, But we are stepping our best to improve the conditions.

To the American Red Cross it means the beginning of one of the biggest problems that has confronted that organization during the war the reclamation of hundreds of towns and villages whose peoples have undergone the privations of captives and: whose homes and supplies have been burned by the retreating armies, With a view toward solving the problem of these towns, Edward Eyre Hunt, Chief of the Bureau of Reconstruction and Rellef and Acting Com- » mander of the American Red Cross in the War Zone, Is en route to Washington. “The German revenge in retreat 1s the most systematic—the mo | hideous—imaginable,” Mr. Hunt said, “They burn or blow up every house... They steal or destroy every agricultural ‘machine and vehicle in the region. They saw through the spokes of cart’ j wheels, They even steal the bobbins from sewing machines.
