Matrons ore as busy as maids and snhllWH, as alert nnd active, and their apparel expresses this, which Is the spirit of youth. In the handsome silver-tone coat pic tured something of this idea Is iippar ear.

A bunch of troops just arriving from the long journey overseas, or perhaps having been shunted around n'hionth or so after landing, reach a permanent I camp nnd are paid off.
