CANADIAN WOMEN HELP In Munitions Factories, ' Canadian women are "doing their bit" in munitions factories, and doing It well. There are 6000 womn work- ' ers. according to estimates, who are helping make the shells which England and her allies and dominions are hurl ing against the German lines. And today comes the "romper suit" for women. That Is "rompers" like children wear, is the article of cloth lng that most -nearly approaches the style of a garment which Canadian nianufacturers are- preparing for their women employes. Canada bars the overalls, which sister workmen are wearing in England. The designers of the new hahlt think it win not only be popular in the machine shop and fuss room, but in the kitchen aa well. Idea Declared Impossible, When Mark lrl&h. director, of labor of the Imperial munitions board, first reached the possibility of having women work in munition factories. Canadian shellinakers declared It was "impossible," because they couldn't be found. "Why. God bless 'em." Director Irish replied, "we are deluged with their ap plications, and I'm asking women bn the waiting list not to get discour aged." The Canadian plan is a "dilution of labor" not replacement of women for men In plants, but Introduction of fem inine workers, so that male labor ran bo spread over a greater time and a greater number of machines. Four hundred women entered the factories at first. Some of these, of the leisure class, found their French heels did not fit In with making muni tions, and they dropped out. Some didn't like the grime and dirt. But 4U or the original number stuck. Ho Heavy &abor Attempted. Then Canadian women awoke to the necessity for munitions, and real and earnest workers started to pour in ap plications. Most of these have stuck right on the job. They, have been careful, efficient, steady, reliable and, in many case, better at work requiring delicate workmanship than men. No heavy labor is attempted. The chief work which the women do is on primers, time fuses. In assembling, inspecting, sorting and packing. On some of these operations measurements to the thou sandth part of an inch are required. The women are paid from $10 to $22 a week Just aa much as men workers in similar places. The plants where they work are airy and well lighted. In some places the Y." W. C. A. and W. C. T. U. and other organizations have started buffets where meals are served at reasonable prices. Irish Crochet. Have you heard the news? Iriin crochet is coming back Into favor for all sorts of things lingerie blouses, neckwear and even frock trimming. For chemise tops and nightgown yokes the Irish crochet is indeed love ly. Two of those old-time "choker collars could be utilized to set in tha back and the front of either garment. A round collar can be set in aa a round yoke In a night-gown, with cuffs to match as finishes for the short kimono sleeves. Sometimes cuffs can be used as shoulder straps on a chem- , ise, with the round collar set in as a motif.
