Women arc already buying them by half-dozens, knowing that the ad¬

vancing season will not maintain the present fair prices. Prom the verybest makes we gathered them, assuring most piquant styles imaginable andmaterials that will stand any number of trips to the laundry. Linens, Gabar¬dines, Wash Satins. Diagonals, Satin Cords, Cotton, Tricotines and ever so

many novel weaves that have scarcely had time to find suitable names for them¬selves. Belts and yokes and lines are all different in a most likable manner.

MAYBE SAMMIE ISTOO BUSY TO SEEKPARCELS FROM HOME;

Do our soldiers In France really warn

packages from homo?One side of this question might be

answered liy the fact that the local post-office has rrceived only a half dozenpackages front people In this city forsoldiers in France since the first of lastApril. j

before the first of April the mallshad numbers of packages every day furSammies "over there." beginning withthe first of April «he pogtoffiec depart-Iment ar.d the American expeditionaryforce made a ruling thut it man mustwrite home for what he wanted and on ¦'

Ills request h>- must have the signature]i f his regimental commander or suir.e jhigher officer. i

Maybe our soldiers In France want jpackages from home, but they do not jhave ihe time to get the signature ofthe regimental commander. Surely the]commander of a regiment would not re-

fuse h man the permission to write'heme for a package.

Since the first of April many attempshave been made by people here to sendpackages to soldiers in France, but these

""

parcels have been refused by the post-J7.office here because they did not hav®--«the necessary request with the required*""signature i»f the regimental commander....»

This perhaps is another case wher®«~.the government has in> -eased the effi-;^'cieney of the mails by a little red tape.

After all, the men in France may want"5"the packages from home, but they do^~not want to go to the trouble of getting.permission .to have the parcels sent. ¦*-.
