Stymie-- Have you ever observed that some w omen do not look well dressed no matter how expensive their clothes t They seem to lack that something called STYLE. Style does not come from the clothing one wears, but from the figure that is underneath the clothing. Some women naturally have a stylish appearance. It is the poise or balance of the figure that gives the easy, graceful movements when walking, stooping, turning, in fact doing any thing that calls for the slightest muscular exer tion. - The foundation of a cor rect figure is proper poise of body maintained by the means of a properly poised corset. MODART Front Laced Corsets are poise de- t ,1 TliAtA la afvla in . a MODART for each type of figure. They are designed to '. bring out the latent beauty of form which is every woman's ... inheritance and to add every possible touch of smartness. - A trial fitting of the MODART Corset, which is free " by our corsetiere, will prove to you their distinctly smart 'style. - Large's 865 WILLAMETTE ST.

By CARL 0. 6R0AT (United Press Staff Correspondent) Washington, Sept. 21. General Focb has broadened the scope of his plan for keeping the Hun busy everywhere, war authoritiea pointed out today. Kor some time he operated this meth od mainly on the weat front. But the past week's deveic-pmente show that his scheme baa been extended until now it reaches Into the east. And it may become mure inclusive with an Italian drive. American manpower haa a direct bear ing on thia relentless, never-ceasing war fare. With the United States expedi tionary forcea overseaa approaching the 2.000,000 mark, it ia now fully possible for J-'och to strike continually and at widely separated points, so aa to keep the boche guessing and hia forces more than busy. Americans Create Reserve. While it required no shifting of men from the west line to stage the drive apiinst the Bulgara or to effect the suc cessful British smash against tbe Turks in Palestine, American man power has created the reserve balance which haa made it poasible for Foch to keep the ccutrnl powers on the jump at all times and places. The American army is destined soon to be greater than the force the boche can muster on tbe west front. Some esti mates of German strength on tbe west ern front today run aa low as 2,000,000. It la probably somewhat greater than that, but not very materiaily so. The American embarkationa have not been stated recently. They were past 1, 600,000 at laat accounts. With the United States force growing atcadily, together with development of material and with the boche constantly weaker. General March'a prediction of a military victory next year gains added weight. Artillery Situation Improved. The development of material ia going forward amaxingly well. Thct the artil lery aituation is improved Is evident from the known American hammering at Mctx with nine-inch and Lirger caliber guns. Metx is the American objective. But its fall ia distant, for It is a strong hold harder to crack than Verdun, be fore which Germany hammered many bloody weeks. The pmcer operation rather than direct assault will be tried, as tbe latter involves a large and .useless waste of life. The American artillery is pounding the town at present. Bulgarin has been left by Germany to largely shift for herself. This fact, cou pled with the striking advance against her this week, leaves her situation more difficult and causes speculation aa to whether she will weather the storm. Turkey can give her no aid, for General Allenby ia keeping the Otoman force busy in Palestine. Incidentally, tbe Bulzar minister, Pan- aretoff, is due back in tho city next week and whether he will attempt a new separnte peace campaign is a aubject b ing discussed in some quarttra- Classes In Care of Sick Now Open for Registration Tersons expecting to he members of the new classes in elementary hygiene and home care of tbe sick which will atart soon, should register at the Red Cross headquarters as soon as pusbiole. according to Mrs. E. L. Zimmerman, chapter aupervi3or. Tbe courae conaists of 13 lessons. "Owing to the fact that great numbers of doctors and nurses have been and will be called to the colors in the near future, it becomea necessary for people at home to be able to care for their own sick," Mrs. Zimmerman said today. "It ia hoped that all who can will avail themsclvea of this opportunity." The classes promise to be very inter esting. Mrs. Zimmerman is a graduate of the Good Samaritan hospital at Port land, and waa a surgical nurse in that institution for four year. Marine Corps Recruiting To Be Resumed October 1 Sergeant Ellis R. Allgood, in charge of the United States recruiting office in Eugene, has received a communication frcm the district headquarters, in Port land, as follows: "On Oct. 1st recruiting in the marine corps will be resumed. Recruiting sta tions will examine and sel-ct men r.s heretofore. The names of applicanta ac cepted will be forwarded to the provost marshal general, who will direct the local board concerned to induct tbe individual applicant into the marine corps for gen eral service or in special cases to enroll hira In the marine corps reserve for lim ited service. The present standard will be maintained. Young men will at ali times be given preference. No instruc tions have aa yet been received, but it is expected that the present age limits (IS 10) will be enforced.- LARGE APPLES GROWN Mrs. Frank Inman, of Eugene, motor route No. 1, brought to The Guard of fice today six Wolf River apples that filled a large-stsed psareboard shoe box One of the apples weighed 1 3-lfl ponnds snd was 14.1-4 inches in circumference. MOSS PICKERS WANTED The Lane county chspter of the Red Cross today issued an appeal for work em to pick moss on Monday. Tbe work mill be in progrese from a. m. to f p. m and it ia desired that Just as nvioj women aa possible SERVICE TAKE PART ITRIOTICPIDE Two Hundred Women Carry Service Flags In Fourth Lib erty Loan Demonstration Patriotic Exercises Held. Two hundred women, mostly mothers of boys "over there," paraded the streets of Eugene this afternoon to carrr home to the hearts of their neighbors, some thought of the sacrifice the mota-.'e of the nation are making in the gre con flict for human liberty. No more impressive demonstration of loyalty to country and devotion to a principle was ever witnessed !n tne city of Eugene than that which tojk place today aa the column of women ir-oved, two by two, carrying service flags, with one, two, three, four and five, stars. Then, there were the most impressive of all mothera proudly carrying flags with gold stars. There were in line mothera, wives, sis ters, daughters and some small children and on bannera carried by many of them, beneath the service star, there appeared tbe words, "over there." The demonstration was planned as a part of the campaign for the fourth Lib erty loan and no feature in support of the war financing plan could have carried home to the heart of everyone that witneased it more forcefully the thought that it waa intended to convey the need for any sacrifice the nation may ask in winning the war. The parade of women formed at the armory. It waa headed by the Eugene municipal band, which waa followed by a patriotic float with a banner reading "Fourth Liberty Loan." There were other cars in which some women, who could not walk, were passengers. The Boy Scouts with an American flag and a picture of President Wilson, head ed tbe marching column of women. The mothera of the boya in the 63th artillery, forming the Oregon Coast Ar tillery, were firat in the line. Then came the mothers of boya in various branches of the service, wives, sisters and daugh ters. The line of march extended on Willam ette street from Fifth avenue to Elev enth avenue where automobilea were waiting to carry the mothers to the fair grounds. Younger women marched for the entire diatance. Patriotic exercises were held at the fair grounds, where a section of tbe grandstand had been reserved for the women who took part in tbe parade. Rev. A. M. Spangler delivered a patriotic aodresa. Some of the service flags that at tracted especial attention were as fol lows: Mrs. L. C. Sherman, two blue and one gold star, two sons in service and one who was killed in action. Mrs. J. II. Dick, four stars, three sons and one son-in-law, Mrs. C. E. Russell, five rtars, four aons and one son-in-law. Mrs. J. M. Williams, four stars, bus bund and three aons. Mrs. Wood, four stars, four sons. 5 Annual Meeting Will Be Held on Skinner's Butte, It Is An nouned.

Thoae who can are urged to bring a song book which contains old patriotic airs. "We ahould not fail to emulate the example of the self-sacrificing pioneers who came before ns we should lead lives that will be an honor to their memories.
