We are becouung accustomed to good tioning and whether we like it or not we must come down at once to some- thing of 'the same kind for clothes Those who follow the edicts of the Paris dressmakers are already planning frocks from 2f yards of 40 inch goods. They may not know that, wool shortage and aeveral.other kinds of shortage are back of this new fashion and for that reason they may fail to use to the best advant- age the last season's garments . which are still in uinable condition. This same shortage -accounts for the combination ' of ewe or more fabrics or colours or pat- terns in one costume Ignorance . of that econohl c fact'may result in a woe- ful Waite of excellent material. . fikilftil cleaning. and dyeing must be- . come one of the popular accomplish. Merits during the remainder of the war and for some time 'after just because the surplus of wool, cotton, leather and almost 'every kind of fabric except silk and velvethas, been exhausted and there is neither available labour, manufactur. Ina plants nor raw material to replenish that deficiency. Dwellers in the New World .are too accustomed to an 'Un- stinted 'supply of . everything, to take -kindly to any hint of the need of censer-' vation of anything. But by thit time we perhaps have acquired that widow which reads the, signs of the times and should, literally, cut our garment accord- ing to the cloth—for there is not enough clotbato go round! ' The Junior. League of New York City have taken a most, commendable step ra suggesting styles' for wear dur- ing war, time' Simplicity, quiet taste and conservation of wool are kept .in. mind.

A ser- viceable -and stylish. sleeveless serge cape at '$25° solves the question' 'of an all- round wrap. ' ' This same careful planning of the wardrobe and the banding together. in, order .to . secure that mystical element which spells. success -the approval of one's fellows—is one phase of real war work which must be taken up at once at home.
