D Don’t think you can win the war by looking like a frump— the German frau can beat you at that any day. Or, in the welcome words of Geraldine Farrar to the American woman, “Spend all the money you can afford for new and pretty clothes, in order to give work to other women who need it, to keep your: selves charming and worth fighting for, to maintain your own self-respect and morale!" Our own all-American prima donna, Miss Farrar’s, patriotism need not be questioned. Just now she is one of the most ardent workers for the Fourth Liberty Loan; in fact, she opened the Loan campaign in Wash- ington by singing “The Star-Spangled Banner.” To- a Y morrow, at Sherry’s, she will preside at a new social é J function—a Liberty Loan dinner, at which she plans to Nic wroee sell bonds to each of the 250 men and women of society But besides being a patriot, Miss Farrar is a young and extremely at- tractive woman.
