OLN SAW UBERTY IN WAR LOANS
I/ilHWln had the lde« of Liberty bonda long before the United Btates Oovenament Isiued any. In Lincoln's (Speeches and wrltlngn there are not many references to ii\% war loans of the Union for the almple reaaon thnt the creat President was burdened *lth BO many problems that ronld not be deleirated to others, as eotild the task of raising money to anve the tinlon. Bnt In hla annnni mea«age to Congreaa on December 8, 18*14, Lincoln trpreaned the nnderlylnn philosophy of the wnr loans of a republic In these words. relfltInK to the public debt:
"HeM ai It Is, for the most part, by onr own people. It has become a snb- ¦tantlal branch of national though pri¬ vate property."
"For obvious reasons, the more nearly this property can be dlstrlbnted among all the people, the better"
"The great advantage of cltlBens be¬ ing creditors aa well as d< )tors, with relation to the ptibllc debt, l« obvl- ou«."
"Men readily perceive that they can- not be much oppreaaed by a debt which they owe to themaelvea."
That's the whole thing In a nutshell. If we had to borrow abroad to win this war we might have canse to worry ; but when we borrow of our¬ selves we are our own creditors. Bet¬ ter than that, we are becoming, tbroogh the Liberty Ix)an8, creditors on a large scale of other staunch and dependable nations. How Lincoln would have rejoiced to see a united country—his country—financing Itself and financing other countries In a world flght for human freedom !
PRESIDENT WILSON'S DECLA¬ RATION OF FAITH.
"The toll, tho In tell igence, the energy, the foresight, the self sacri¬ fice and de¬ votion of the farmers of America will, I believe, bring to a tri¬ umphant con¬ clusion this great war for the emancipation of men."—From the President's Letter to the Farm¬ ers' Conference at Urbana, III.
MY CHANCE.
By WILLIAM F. KIRK, How glad I am that Uncle Sam
Has called on nie at last I To think that he has come to me
When skies are overcast t How often have I longed to aid
The boys who marched away To flght for me across the sea
And break the tyran't sway 1
Oh, what Is gold that we should bold
Our little purse strings now? Oh, what Is gain if all In vain
We learned ea<-h Yankee vowT All that I have, all that I am,
Is yours in part oi whole. And you may tnke It, Uncle Sam,
With all my henrt and soul!

When you buy an automobile what do you reu liy buy?
Do you only buy the material and labor? Or do you buy what a car stands for in repu¬ tation, in achievment, in exceJlence of rank?
When you buy a car, you believe what the maker says of it. You buy material and labor fins reputation.
Kepu til tion in motor car building is most important. <?
Without reputation, your metal, rubber and wood woidd be merely a hii^hly poli.shtMJ niedi- anieal a.s.s«'mbly. Witli it,you are certain of sat¬ isfaction, plea.sure, health, un<l eflicient travel.
Chevrolet reputation is founded on oomi)lete satisfaction. VVe could not have grown with¬ out it.

Th© nse of Jersey weaves or knitted fabricfl in both nllk nnd wool (^ntinnet. to lie a domlniint feature of garment and style development. For \re«r dar¬ ing the coming fsprlng season fll^r allk, much on the order of that used for Rweatern, wtll be ufle<l In botJi sport sulfa and dresses. Several textllfl houses have brought this fabric out,
We used to wait for the arrival of spring or for signs thnt it was within hailing distance before we clothed our heads in hats that tuke no thought of winter, even In below-zero weather. But a new order of things has come to pass and now we Indulge ourselves In liats that herald the spring nnd go ont to meet It while It Is yet afar off—In Northern climates. They are not spring hats and they are not winter hats. They are cheerful hats with a thought of summer In them, but substantial enough to brave the snows of late win¬ ter.
Here are three of these smnrt hat.s that are minded to turn their allegi¬ ance from winter to spring and pin their fnlth to Its coming soon. They huve satin crowns and brims of a braid which is variously cnlled "che¬ nille," "caterpillar" and "carpet" braid. "Caterpillar" fits it best. It Is a fuzzy, substantial looking and .^ioft braid that looks wonderfully well with satin. It is shown in all the lovely and .soft spring color.s. These hats are usually faced with crepe georKctte, nnd their trimmings nre glazed or lacquered flowers and fruits.
Braids that have heretofore been used for spring-summer hats are brought Into service for the demlsea- Kon by covering thoin with a hard lacquer which gives them a high, hard lu.^ter or polish. For February and March very bright rod liat.s—a cherry red—are made of these brnlds. Cher¬ ries are a favorite trimming for them, too. Then there nre small all black turbana made of "patent leather"—
that is millinery patent leather In the form of braid or of millinery braids lacquered or varnished into the most lustrous surfaces. These smnll, smart, brilliant hats are for any clime and look quite equal to tneetlng any emer¬ gency. Nearly always they are In all black, trimmed with small rlbl)on orna¬ ments or little wings. These are also lacquered and will defy the strongest March wind thnt blows to disarrange a single feafher In them.
To Brigbten Dull Tints. Neutral colors arc so popular at present tlint the brunette who to<»i{ joy in tho bright shades that were made for licr pe.'irli-bloom cheeks feels some¬ what fil ight <m1. For her, however, is the trick of livrnlnf? the prevailing (liillne.«s by linings of .striking l)rllllan- cy or of adding some bright touch to relieve the otherwise somber efToct of Iho costume. A waistcoat of slik or of einhroidcrod lenlher Is a means to this end, but the woman who ciitehes at sueh sartorial straws n)Ust be sure to choose a style that Is becoming. The "(rrnnde ninden\oiselle" variety, fnr example, with Its boulTnnt skirt and military .sash,. Is only for her of the .slenderest silhouette.
Coat Dress. There is much talk about the coat dress for spring,,the strictly tailored suit being somewhat passe.

Spring Frock Featuring One-Sided Fastening.
glvlnp it fanciful trade names, but It i.s nothing more nor less than fiber silk, which every one knows is not silk at ail, but which serves as an excellent imitation and substitute for silk at a umch cheaper price.
The smart little spring frock shown In the sketch may be developed effec¬ tively either in wool Jersey or fiber silk, or it could be made of serge or gaberdine. The real feature of this frock is its side fastening arrange¬ ment, and it is interesting to note that the fancy for one-sided effects Is evi¬ dent in all lines of outer apparel for women.
Some of the smartest frocks have draperies or tunics that fall lo^w at one side and are scarcely visible at the oth¬ er side, and the same rule applies to the separate skirt.
Inasmuch as the hip drapery giving a bouffant silhouette has had its day, and the back flare, or bustle. Is also passing after a brief lease of life, the one-Sided effect Is logically the next experiment. So far many satisfactory results have been achieved.
The dre.ss shown may be trimmed with braiding in self or contrasting color or merely la stitching with heavy floss. Or if some more elaborate trim: ming touch is required, wool embroid¬ ery mny be recommended, especially if wool jersey cloth is selected for tbe gown.
• This is tt good model for an early
isprlng street or utility frock, and is not one that would present serious dlfliculties even to the average home
; dressmaker.
: The jjown is a close reefed affair, and quite nnrrow.
I Faille silk or silk poplin i:?ould be
I used for a frock of thla type If scjne- thing more dressy than one of the knit-
ited ^veave9 is desired, ^vlth heavy em¬ broidery ser\ing as the trimming.

Timely Economics.
Coming, OS the reform does, at the hour when spring and summer fash- Ions are being conceived, the necessity for being carefwl with worsted mate¬ rial brings less hardship than If the reform had been launched last July.
It Is true that the great mass of peo¬ ple who do not live in the South and Southwest buy a vast quantity of lightweight worsted clotlies for Febru¬ ary. March und April; but they ar« Qtilte willing to have the worsted en¬ livened by chlffun. satin, silk or georg¬ ette crepe.
If the women of this country under- ¦tand what is behind the new fashions they will enter Into the spirit of con¬ servation wltb as much eagerness and zealous desire to do right as they bave in tbe saving of meat, wheat, sugar und cereals.
