Now York. The zero hour mny linve
ended for tho army, but It sends n
shiver of memory, nnd prospect
through us. Hentlcss houses, ley
streets nnd thin clothes served to re
duce our vltnllty so herlously lust win
ter that there are many medical ex
perts to rlso up and say that the dev
astation of Influenza was due to these
caused.
Wo wero frozen liy nature, fed on
substitutes, made miserable by lack of
nrtlflclal hent, nnd our ncrvoui resist
ance, which was called Into Intcnso
activity to wlthMnnd these three
plnsues, has permitted us to fall easy
victims to the fourth and tho worst
plnguo that leaped upon us from tho
occnii last autumn.
Tho war Is over, but the cold ap
proaches. Tho soldiers need not fear
tho zero hour, but tho American wom
en must fear It, warns a prominent
fashion correspondent. It may be that
wo will get tip cold and go to bed cold.
We may eat half-warm meals In front
Df halMicarted Arcs, and have our be
ing In one small room, with a total dis
regard of tho pleasnnter amenities of
llfo that civilization has led its to be
'love aro permanent.
This Is not pclmlsm. It is n retro
spect of actualities. Nonu of us cs
:aped suffering last year. Tho rich
mil the poor went down nllko under
the presence of Intense cold and lack
of coal, Just as clean nnd dirty, weal
thy and pauper went down under tho
Influenza germ. Xono wero spared
tho presence of danger last year. Tho
Diultlmllllnnnlro lived In ono room and
tried to heat It with whatever sticks
ind stones she could buy or borrow, in
the snme comfortless way as her sister
)f tho submerged tenth.
Warmth Is tho Fashion.
Lot us say that It Is tho fashion to
near warm clothes, and the Individual
tvlll follow the fashion as the customs
of n country follow Its Hag. Wo movo
In herds, nnd nil thu civilization In tho
world has not been ablo to cradicato
this primordial Instinct, So when you
go out to buy your winter outfit, say
to yourself that warmth Is the fashion;
that protection to tho body by proper
apparel Is smart; that peltry, velours,
quilted linings, high shoes, big neck
pieces, muffs for the hands, nnd even
foot warmers for tho feet, aro tho very
height of style.
To dress In transparent clothes Is to
show ono's self behind tho times. To
wear negligible costumery that half
covcra tho body nt thrco o'clock, dur
ing a blizzard, Is to show one's self
unobservant of thu rules of tho game.
And not only must wo wear warm
clothes on tho street, but they may bo
necessary for tho house. In fact, It Is
very probnblo that they will be. Thero
Is small doubt about It under tho now
fuel request, which Is that every room
shall lmvo n thermometer, nnd that

shall go nbovo 03 degrees. Now, you'ro
not used to OS degrees In tho house.
Many of us nro used to SO, and tho
majority of us will shiver for thu first
few weeks under tho now regulation.
Wo may tnko ns our only comfort that
fact that this temperature Is supposed
to bo lu'althful; but, mind you, it is
only healthy when tho body is warm.
No medical expert, however great, will
try to convince- you otherwise.
Therefore, thu clothes thnt aro to
bo chos.cn for tho house, as well ns
thoso lor tho street, must bo protec
tive. And becauso of this now ruling,
which comes through tho federal reg
ulations, thero Is an entire output of
new types of houso gowns that wq

Tho following news Items, sent out
by the lied Cross publicity depart

the greatest of organizations In
America : '
All mnlo employees nt tho London

ters of tho American I ted Cross arc
ex-soldiers discharged for disability.
in one month they packed 137,000
separate nrtlcles nnd shipped 30O
bales of supplies to tho front.
At the request of ofilclals of the air
servico the American lied Cross Is
providing special comforts for Amer
ican flying men overseas. Uncle Sam
wants his sky sailors to liavo every
attention.
Tho fact thnt Undo Sam Is nhout
to tnko Kaiser Bill to the woodshed
has not caused nny letup in Ited
Cross nctlvltlcs. lied Cross workers
won't tnlce a day off until tho last
American soldier has been landed ou
his own doorstep.
Speaking about scraps of paper, the
American lied Cross lins Just handed
the Ilritlsh Ited Cross n check for $2,-

Mourning brassards ns a substitute
for regular mourning for relatives of
men Iot In tho service hno met with
the approval of tho uorcncd families.
Ited Cross divisions linve naked head
quarters for u total of 110,000 of tho
brassards. Parents and widows of
tho men get them frco of clinrge nnd
other relatives nt cost.
More than one thousand aged nnd
Intlrm Ilelglnns from the front-lino
nrens, many of whom wero under

masslvo old stone building near Mon
treull, France. Tho place was for
merly tho houso of tho Carthusian
monks.
Three hundred Belgian children nro
now comfortably situated in a ten
barrack colony established near Char

Scores of the children weio brought

Santa Clnus, acting as the agent of
tho American Red Cross. Is going to
mnko a special trip overseas to de
liver Christmas parcels to thoso sol

member them.
An audience of French soldiers
who linve lost nrms or legs was re
cently entertained nt n movie show
given by tho American lied Cross at
Nantes, Franco. A film showing the
way In which disabled soldiers lmvo
become self-supporting wns the fea

A one-armed soldier pianist, fot

is shortly to be discharged from nn
American lied Cross hospital In Lon
don, nnd will appenr on tho concert
stage In Knglnnd. Ho is Gwllyni
Jones, n Welsh private, who lost his
arm nt Ypres.
A Belgian soldier, who evidently
believes that two can stnrvo as cheap
ly as one, wrote recently to tho Amer
ican lied Cross commissioner for Bel
glum, Invoking matrimonial aid from
tho American Ited Cross, ns follows:
"I am on the point of getting mar
ried next month. I lmvo no relatives
to como to my nssistnucc; they nro
all in invaded Belgium. You would
render me n grent servico in granting
mo a llttlo 'sccour,' for tho only
money I lmvo Is my pay which Is 05
cents n week. With that amount it
is very dllllcult to snve money. My
fiancee Is as poor ns I urn. Sho Is n
refugee nt St. Brleuc."
Japan Tassels.
Tassels nnd Irlngo both beenmo so
popular last summer that thero was
somo doubt about their remaining In
favor with women who dress well. But
they have both been retained, In spite
of their popularity, and somehow by
using them in new and unusual ways
tho designers of pmiirt clothes tm
give them distinction. Ono new way"
or using long jet tassels is to fasten'
ono pendant ou each sido of tho brim!
of n wldu hat.
