A Social Force Unshackling Our People for the Great Adventure By GOV. GIFFORD PINCHOT, In Surrey. GIANT POWER is a term coined to suggest the realization of -far-reaching social objectives through a vaulting engineering technique. We conceive Giant Power as a social force unshackling our people for the Great Adventure. Giant Power is ilso the equivalent of the sum total of controlled and interconnected mechanical energy within an area, the limits of which are fixed —not arbitrarily as by state lines or by the historical development of some public or private enterprise—but by technical considerations. In away we have always had such pools of power—even’ independent power plant with its distribution wires constituted such a system. But now that the distance factor is all but removed, these interconnected areas spread out wondrously—their radial power lines extending hundreds of miles in every direction from common generating centers. Giant Power means giving to every producer of current an opportunity to add to a common stock and to every user an opportunity to draw therefrom. Giant Power means the practice on the broadest possible scale of every possible economy, such as the pooling of standby fa* mlities and the elimination of every waste, such as that due to a lew power factor. But Giant Power also means the education of the public to the point where it can intelligently and fully co-operate with publie and private enterprise in these objectives. We approach the time when the load factor of a community may be made to mean more than the interest rate or the cost of living index. One of the most pronounced and untoward effects of the Industrial Revolution with its mechanical power was the massing of population in urban centers. If, under the Giant Power dispensation, mechanical energy can not only be made cheap but distributed broadly, authorities agree in predicting a spreading cut of population —a veritable “bt»ck to-the-land” -movement. General School Museum in Two Cities Proven Exceedingly Useful By L. V. COLEMAN. American Association of Museums. Museums in schools consist usually of objects which have been brought in by the children. If this material is not kept too long, it may be used to great advantage, but practice has demonstrated over and ovet again that objects kept for long periods in the classroom or in the school become uninteresting and clog the wheels of progress, lherefore a per- , manent museum in a school is not to be desired. In two cities the school systems have established general school museums. Ln St Louis there is such a museum which is working actively and effectively. Hundreds of thousands of objects are available to teachers on call, and automobile trucks deliver them when needed. In Cleveland a similar though less ambitious plan is in operation. 1 hese projects liave proven exceedingly useful. The typical school collection consists of perhaps a dozen objects in a carrying case and accompanied by descriptive matter. Experience has proved that for most purposes a few simple objects are much to be preferred to manv elaborate ones, and also that objects which may be handled by the pupils, or at Jeast isolated and studied individually, are of greater effectiveness than a set of objects displayed in a portable case with even the best of arrangement and labeling. The collection may be accompanied by charts and photographs, by stereoscopes and lantern slides, or even by a motion-picture film. The greatest usefulness of such collections is in connection with nature study, art, history, geography, reading and composition. “I Have Been Through Three Wars and I Do Not Want to See Another” By BRIG. GEN. PAUL B. MALONE, Address to Opt I mist st » Victory, economic and military (the two go together), comes to the country with the trade control. Whenever two countries become *r f ' r, <r in trade, they either unite or fight. It to«<k the saock of the. late World war to snow the American people that the I nited States occupies the position of leaders|iip in the world. Will there lie any future wars? I don’t know. Peace monuments have been erected. But it is useless to try to get away from a disagreeable situation by denying its existence. The greatest peace work the United States ever did after the late World war was enactment of the national defense act. This provides for one-sixth regulars, two-sixths National Guards and three-sixths organized reserves. Within ten years your knowledge of the conflict will have perished. Os our millions of service men in the late war, only 30,000 will be subject to the draft. Where will we get our trained meu? In the R. 0. T. C. and the training camps. We don’t want our army led by dubs. I’ve seen 80 men cut down by machine gun fire in a minute and half because they were led by a man who was not capable of leadership. # A pacifist if a man who has been there. I have been through three wars and I do not want to see another. I've sent one boy through West Point and have another who will enter there. Importance of Waste-Paper Industry to America Little Appreciated By WARREN B. BULLOCK. In American Forestry. The importance of the waste-paper industry to America is very little appreciated. The waste-materials industry is a highly organized American industry, with its ramifications. The waste-collection industry alone involves many millions of dollars. The paper manufacturers of the I nited States alone pay the waste-paper men $50,000,000 a year. And this represents about 2,000,000 tons of waste paper, which is the average consumption of the mills of the country. Were it not for the utilization of waste paper, there would be a depletion-of the forests amounting to some three hundred thousand acres of timberland every year. Instead of reaching the peak of possibilities of forest conservation by the use of waste paper, many think that there is a still greater future before the paper industry in the closer utilization of waste. The Forest Products laboratory at Madison has made extensive experiments with the de-inking of waste paper for the making of newsprint paper, and this can be done economically, producing at the same time a satisfactory grade of paper. If the Canadian campaign for the placing of an embargo on export of pulpwood to tlie Uuitcd States is successful, a campaign which has been progn-s<ing for the last four years, there will be a further turning to waste paper for the production of newsprint, as well as book paper and paper board. Dr. John Timothy Stone, .Chicago.—l believe Dr. J. M. Gray of the Moody Bible institute (fundamentalist) and Dr. Harry Emerson Fosdick (modernist) are both Christians. Either one is welcome to my pulpit, but the minute either one or any other minister begins to attack others or start controversy I will refuse them a second chance in my pulpit I believe it is my business to preach the Gospel as 1 understand it, saw wood and let others do the fighting. — Representative J. X. Tincher of Kansas —It is not a question of state rights. It is a question of the children’s rights. What is best for the boy red rirl should be the Constitution, should be the fundamental law. s

Youth and Grace in Woman’s Dress

Poor madame! Having a love of the beautiful and a discriminating taste In drees, and being fortunate In the possession of a long purse, she still is as badly off as Flora McFlimsy, with nothing to wear—unless she has succeeded In retaining that slim silhouette. Under the autocratic rule of designers, observes a fashion writer In the New York Times, an ideal has been created and a standard established, and life, as to clothes, is simple for the woman who meets the requirements, though otherwise It 1* a problem requiring devoted attention and Involving many difficulties. It is as if the whole world of fashion makers had conspired against the woman who Is smart, yet not neces--1 ff / In I H / ■ / If I Maize Silk Etamine Embroidered in Scarlet Floss With Coral Ornament warily slim and curveless. The most tempting models are for the boyish figure. and to place them further beyond the reach of any other, the original French models are confined to sizes no larger than "38." The saleswoman usually displays this to the timid, almost apologetic customer, as being *the very largest size we carry." This applies, of course, to the woman who longs to possess the original and wishes to avoid. If possible the irksome experience of being fitted. She of the youthful figure, with fresh skin and hair of natural shade, still finds that, unless she has kept her figure and avoirdupois within bounds, she is "hard to fit." and. being a plump 40, is distressed to find that the type of frock that was charming on a “perfect 36” looks quite different on her. To be unsylphllke is handicap enough, but to have arrived at ibe period when one must acknowledge or be reminded that moyen-age styles are the correct thing for one is to realise, they say. the first gray in the otherwise bright sky of a merry world. For the woman of fashion who has put off tMs somber day by being Industrious in training, the way is still pleasant and the best and most beautiful things crentetl by Parisian artists are for her as long as she desire* them. Hair can

Shown in Knitted Wear

For dress and semi-dress occasions, the beautifully patterned and colored plain goods of this season are delightfully adapted, and the possibilities of happy results with these in the hands of artists are almost unlimited. It is the sports dress and the tailleur that present the real problem. Each of these. In the strictest sense, belongs to the Jeunesse, the slim, the willowy type,, but must be adapted to the maturer figure. This is accomplished with smart effect and much charm in the one-piece frock, cut very coatl’ke, straight and belted loosely; In the tunic, and in the overblouse and skirt. All these are successfully illustrated in the knitted goods—light, gossamer woolens, silk jersey, rosbanar* crepe eponge. pongee and alpaca. Plaits—the tunic of narrow plaiting entire —long, slender panels, and rows of buttons outlining the frock from top to bottom, accentuate length and have a slenderizing effect and are somehow younger and more chic than the plainer models. Some of the most exclusive shops in New York are offering tbese seml-tallleur suits in whits.

Red Now Adds Pleasing Touch of Popular Color

Not for many years has red occupied such an Important place in fashion. Much has been said about its use as decoration, but one sees it even more extensively featured both in millinery and in costumes. The all red hat has appeared recently in such numbers as to make It a fashion note well worth recognizing. Usually It tops a suit for tailored frock of black or dark bine and the color scheme Is repeated in a scarf or a handkerchief peeping out of a pocket. One of the most Interesting sport suits to be seen was fashioned of a soft wooL in shade a rather bright red marked with pencil stripes in black. The skirt was a simple wraparound model and, the coat was of special interest in that It revealed the tendency toward a somewhat longer length in contrast to the brief little jacket of the tailleur. Shown with this salt was a short mannish jacket of black cheviot, indicating that by Including two coats

be camouflaged, dog collars are for telltale necklines, angel sleeves soften sharp angles—and many .another trick may be turned. But when moyen-age adds silver to the qalr and pounds, to the figure there Is cause for despair and the question of dress becomes acutely important French Women Reticent It is something a French woman never admits except to herself. Whatever is becoming she will wear, and she critically views herself and decides that illusion and effect come of emphasis of her points of charm and of subordinating, negativing, as it were, the marks of the years and the evidences of too much enjoyment of ease. She knows the value of having hair perfectly coiffed and hands and feet immaculately clad. Some of the older artists. Worth. Paquin, Drecoll, Redffern—master hands In the art of gowning women—seemed to hare a special sense in t;hls Important service, and their clients looked always so well and so becomingly dressed that the evidence of age was artistically softened and dignified. Judged by her silhouette —so it be de rigueur—any woman in these times may wear anything she chooses, and usually she is successful, for American women are graduates in taste and style. For them the best designers of Europe and America have worked out models that will please the fancy and comfort the heart by keeping youth and grace in the figure. The fashionable woman of a generation ago was unaware of the architecture that reconstructs the figure to the present model. To summarize, she wore stays, and crinoline, and bone*. These belong to the Dark Ages, as far as concerns the modern woman; which greatly simplifies the task of the modiste who helps the middle-aged woman to express taste and style In her appearance. The waistline dropped to the point of the hip was the life-saving Innovation. To that is drawn the Img V-shaped neck, the gracefully tapered shawl collar, the wide cascading cape, the Jabot The skirt, in slight drapery, is caught usually with a motif of flowers or jeweled ornament, or a garniture that trails in lengthwise line to the bottom of the skirt One-Piece Gown, Real Tort. The one-piece gown, the real test has many variants, the essential of which is the coat dress. This, in light or heavy materials, is becoming to every figure of any proportions. The gown proper is made In a straight model, with a panel, like a full-length waistcoat, whether plain and fitted, or plaited and held by a belt or girdle. The tunic, which may be threequarters, seven-eightbs or full length. Is one.at the most comfortable and entirely satisfactory models suitable for older women. The silk Jersey tunic for daytime and the bended tunic for evening wear were brought out several years ago. Isolated, single and “extreme” styles, that took at once. Worth, Beer, Jenny, Molyneux, Cherult are now giving us one-piece gowns. Jenny, Alice, Bernard, Loulseboulanger. Premet, Doeulllet Drecoll, to mention special and representative designers, present Interesting variants of the tunic, and Poiret Lanvin. Jeanne Bailee, Doucet. Patou are among those who Illustrate the saving grace of a slight lift of the skirt in draped lines. No preceding season hgs offered as much Inducement In material for slender inodfllng and graceful drapery. The soft silks, crepes, voiles, marquisette, and all the shades of weaving in sheer fabrics respond to the artistic designs cannlly established for the clientele to whom It matters so vitally.

white-and-black or collars In stripes, and sharply marked, bars.. One that is liked by ultra-fashionable women is an Informal outfit—skirt of white Jersey, plaited; overblouse of crepe, embroidered tn colored crewels, and threequarter sweater coat of the jersey, with deep shawl collar, large pockets, and narrow belt of glace kid. The overblouse, touching the knee, is the answer to many difficulties in the summer outfit for moyen-age. It is soft, supple, yet straight, dropping with Its own weight, and is worn unbelted. The skirt beneath, whether it is plain, kilted or flaring, adds grace to the figure and Is flattering to feet and ankles. The cretonne coats that were brought out with the first suggestion of seaside dress are having a vogue. They are so picturesque, summery and serviceable that they an?) their variants, whatever they come to be. are likely to have a long run of popularity. They are the simplest type of garment, cut as straight as a man’s smoking jacket, and with no more elaboration In outline.

It would be possible to have two distinct costumes. With the revival of the suit lias coms about a greater interest In blouse* and in their infinite variety they offei ail kinds of delightful possibilities. One model was designed as part of i costume, but it could easily be copiec in other colors and worn as a separate blouse. It is made of white crepe d< chine with a touch of red on the tk ends. This color is repeated in a plaited overskirt opened in front t< show a slip of white crepe. Three lit tie belts of red accentuate the Idea that this is a frock and not just a separate skirt and blouse. Worn With Suits Blouses for tailored wear continue to be made of fine broadcloth, which comes now in such charming colors The blouse definitely Intended sot summer wear Is of dimity and marked by a pleasant simplicity of line and decoration.
