It’s This Way By Marge Petsch The women take the stand: Try to take yourself out of the qampus setting for a few minutes and project yourself out into the world wherein you will be making your living or your home within the next few years. Try to make yourself feel that you will be as important a member of that so ciety as any other woman. What do you see? If you exam ine the objectives toward which women’s organizations in the coun try have been working for the past century, you will find that one of the first of these has heen a fight for peace. And you will find, in going further, that congress passed a neutrality bill not long ago in an effort to preserve peace in this country. It is interesting to speculate upon what part women had in in fluencing congress to pass such a bill. If one were to be completely honest, she would have to admit that they had done only too little. Despite the act of congress, there is still possibility of our be coming involved, a tragedy which would be caused partly by public opinion in this country. In illustrating the part which women on this campus and in this country can play to avert such a situation, here is the following quotation from an editorial, run on last year’s women's page: “There have been a few out standing pacifists among the wo men of our world, but all too few. And this is due, probably, to the fact that it was never the women who had to ‘face the guns,’ who had to live in the grime and stu pidity connected with the killing off of men who have as much right to live as we. True, we have had to sacrifice loved ones, and when the actual sacrifice arrived we were only too anxious to avert the war already started. But our part in averting the war, the job of education against it among the children and adults had already been completed, and the success of our performance was seen in the instantaneous enlistment of thou sands of men.” Women must realize that just as their part in an economic world is constantly growing, so their part in the next war will be proportion ately greater. Should it be a major conflict, “facing the gun’s” may be our job. Surely women must awaken to their role in the drama of fighting the “inevitable war.” Prominent Theta Tells Bethrothal At House Dinner Miss Bette Church, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Campbell Church, announced her engagement to Jo seph Darby of Salem at a dinner at the Kappa Alpha Theta house Tuesday evening.

The ga mut of color at the game ran from dark green to vivid terra cotta, even susided into grey and black at times. An unidentified girl attracted much attention by wearing a very smart outfit in brown and beige. It was composed of a soft hairy tweed suit in the lighter shade topped by a plaid swagger coat that swung free in back. The lat ter was finger-tip in length with a dashing tuxedo collar of lynx. Brown accessories completed the ensemble. Fancying the unusual, Dorothy Jean McCarthy wore a striking costume in oxblood and navy. A checked woolen dress with dark blue buttons marching soldier-like down the front was in harmony with the sartorial top coat in navy. A slouch felt hat. suede gloves, and shoes repeated the brighter shade of the frock. Another girl also showed her preference for checks, this time in a brown and grey skirt topped by a brown bi-swing jacket with a» grey wool Ascot scarf and a brown pony swagger. Betty Lou Drake added a bright touch of color in an emerald green frock and hat of wool. The latter showed a definite influence of the Scotch highlander, narrow and pinched longwise across the crown. Her coiffure, sleek and blonde, of fered the perfect foil for a hat of this type. Speaking of hats, Dodie Carlton distinguished herself in an amusing brown felt, rather flat on top with an absurd pie-crust brim that would insure complete pro tection from the unexpected Jupi ter. The pleasant combination of chic and utility found here are qualities rarely discovered in hats. Harriet Kistner, upholding the family tradition, appeared impec cably attired in navy blue. Her suit was a rough woolen material flecked in grey, worn with a light silk blouse. A smart blue felt hat with an upturned visor brim was balanced in back by a swirling glazed feather. Navy accessories, If inventory had been taken Sat urday night, at various places of amusement, a definite preponder ance of black and the deeper shades of red would have been not ed. One girl came rather close to glamour in a dressy black wool suit with a gold lame blouse, tail ored like a man's shirt. The Ren aissance trend was evinced in a wide gold kid belt, ornately jew eled in reds and blues and greens, that gripped her snugly midriff. Jean Erienson was chic in a suit of olive green crepe embroidered with gold disks that matched the lame blouse underneath. rtnanaiHiniiiainiiBiranqiiBriaiaiHmMaiamBiBimra “CHIC-PLUS” That's the way you look after a visit to the KRAMER BEAUTY SALON for a fingerwave, shampoo, or manicure.

Milady Fashion Wears Variety Of Smart Styles By MARGUERITE KELLY Milady of fashion seems to be torn between three desires this fall, and she doesn’t know which one to choose. There is the ren aissance influence manifested in the use of velvets and brocades and embroideries in beautiful, rich j colors. There is the soft, draped, floating type which may be called Egyptian, Grecian, or pre-war as you wish. But for day time wear, at least, the military mode is “tops.” The fabrics are wonderful. Some wools so sheer that they look like silk are worn, and. in contrast, some silks that look exactly like thin wool. Suits especially, are made in soft, heavy wools with either a definite plaid or a very small and indistinct pattern. The colors of the parade ground are prominent in the style march for fall. Brilliant reds and blues and greens are especially well-1 liked. Skirts are somewhat shorter and made either with many pleats or severely plain. They are tightly fitted in imitation of uniforms. Suits are, of course, the biggest item in day time wear mainly be cause of their extreme practicality. They are especially well adapted to military influences. Short, full capes are much in evidence, these undoubtedly being an influence from Ethiopia. Many suits are made with fitted jackets of which the wide lapels are trimmed with fur and the front is fastened with frogs made of soutache braid. One piece dresses are cut and fitted to look like these tight jackets. Ornaments are made of every thing imaginable. Often, yards and yards of braid are used and again, metal pins and clips, -looking for all the world like the medals that distinguished generals wear, are the attraction. Frogs are used on everything big ones and little ones, plain and fancy, contrasting or harmonizing in color- just so they are frogs. It is very evident, then, as shown by these styles, that current affairs play a great part in influencing fashions. Virginia Matson Marriage Date Told to Tri-Delts Announcement of the marriage of Miss Virginia Matson of Marsh field and Patrick McGinnis, also of that city, was recently received by members of Delta Delta Delta.

On one hand one sees the educated, court wo men wearing European clothes and holding a respected place in society while her poorer sister goes bare footed and wears the traditional garb Ethiopian women were wear ing centuries ago. All Ethiopian women hold in common their pride on belonging to an aristocratic race. Ethiopians, they feel insulted when called Abyssinians, belong to the Cau casian race and are of Semetic stock. Their ancestors were Chris tians while ours were still worship ping Thor. These women have plump faces which keep youthful lines and do not wrinkle. Roses seem to bloom under their olive skin. The most striking thing about their appear ance, however, is their coiffures. By an application of animal fat as a hair pomade they seek to produce a modish hairdress and at the same time discommode small parasites whose favorite habitat is the human head. They use one application of this pomade as the base for another, but the ol factory result is one which would excite not even a particle of envy in us. Incidentally, one may distinguish the women of one tribe from those of another by their coiffure. An application of a plaster of lime is also used in hair dressing. This not only eradicates insects but turns the frizzy black hair to a most glorious and pinkish red. If you saw “Wings Over Ethio pia,” you remember the dazzling white teeth the women had. Their unique method of getting them in that condition is scrubbing them several times daily with wooden sticks. Marriage and divorce are re garded very differently by the Ethiopian woman than by those of other countries. Marriage is a sim ple ceremony and its bonds are even more easily dissolved. A di vorced woman is a very desirable one in the eyes of suitors, and not RADER BEAUTY SALON Smart Hairdressing' Eugene Hotel Telephone 2890 without reason. Every divorcee is given one-half of her former hus band’s property—consequently the more she has been divorced the more she has in worldly goods. To be divorced more than once a year is not uncommon. Ethiopian women do not smoke, and for a very good reason. A former ruler had the lips of .wo men who smoked cut off and some how the habit of smoking never became a common one. The class distinctions of Ethio pian women are great. The em press and court women are well ed ucated and hold our views on many subjects, war included, but the larger group, the tribeswoman, hold the old primitive ideas of life and want to fight.
