THE NASSAU POST, FRBRPORT, N. Y., FRIDAY. MARCH 22, 1918 Page « LINCOLN SAW LIBERTY IN WAR LOANS Lincoln tied the Me* of Liberty bonds long before the United State* Government leaned any. In Uncoln’a speeches and writings there are not many references to the war loans of the Union for the simple reason that the (great President was htirdened with ao many problems that cotild not be delegated to others, as could the task o f raising money to sure the Union. But In his annual message to Congress on December 6,1804, Lincoln expressed the underlying philosophy of the war loans o f n republic In these words, relating to the public debt: “Held as It Is, for the most part, by our own people, It has become a sub stantial branch of national though pri vate property.” “For obvious reasons, the more nearly this property can be distributed among all the people, the better.” \The great advantage of citlsens be ing creditors aa well as dt >tora, with relation to the public debt, la obvi ous.\ “Men readily perceive that they can- net be much oppressed by a debt which they owe to themeelvee.” That's the whole thing In a nutshell. If we had to borrow abroad to win this war we might have cause to worry; but when we borrow of our selves we are our own creditors. Bet ter than that, we are becoming, through the Liberty Ixians, creditors on a large scale o f 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 fight for human freedom ! PRESIDENT WILSON'S DECLA RATION OF FAITH. “The t o l l , the In t e l !

I. ONE-SIDED EFFECT Promises to Be the Next Logical Spring Experiment. Fiber Silk, Similar to That Used for Sweaters, Will Be Popular for Sport Suita and Dreaeee. The use of Jersey weave* or knitted fabrics In both silk and wool continues to be a dominant feature of garment and style development. For wear dur ing the coming spring season fiber silk, much on the order of that used for sweaters, will be used In both sport milts and dresses. Several textile houses have brought this fabric out, No Raise in the Price of Vinol Although it costs thousand s of dollars more to make Vinol than it did six months ago, and the new w a r tax adds another heavy burden, We arc not going to charge the people any ■more f a r it. We prefer to keep the good will of our custom ers and avoid price increases wherever we can. You can, therefore, continue bo get VINOL from us a t the old price of $1.00 a bottle, an d hundreds of you have proved by personal experierce that i t is The Best Strength Creator Money Can Buy For weak, run down men an d women, feeble old people, and delicate children, nervous conditions and a constitutional remedy for Antema, colds and bronehitis. CLARENCE S. ABRAMS, Ph. G. T H E R A X A L L S T O R E 23 West Merrick Road FREEPORT, L. I. Telephone, No. 1 We used to wait for the arrival of spring or for signs th a t It was within hailing distance before we clothed our heads In hats that take 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 hats that herald the spring and go out to meet I t 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 w in ter. Here are three of these smart hats that ore minded to turn their allegi ance from winter to spring and pin their faith to Its coming soon. They have satin crowns and brims of a braid which is variously called “che nille,” “caterpillar” and “carpet” braid. “Caterpillar” fits It best. It Is n fuzzy, substantial looking and soft braid th a t looks wonderfully well with satin. It is shown in all the lovely and soft spring colors. These hats are usually faced w ith crepe georgette, and their trimmings are glazed or lacquered flowers and fruits. Braids that have heretofore been used for spring-summer hats are brought into service f o r the demlsen- son by covering them with a hard lacquer which gives them n high, hard luster or polish. For February and March very bright red hats—u cherry red—are made of these braids. Cher ries are a favorite trimming for them, too. Then there are small all black turbans 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 small, smart, brilliant hats are for any clime and look q u ite equal to meeting any emer gency. Nearly always they are in all black, trimmed with small ribbon orna ments or little wings. These are also lacquered and will defy the strongest March wind that blows to disarrange a single feather In them. T o Brighten Dull Tints. Neutral colors are so popular at present that the brunette who took joy in the bright shades that were made for her peach-bloom cheeks feels some what slighted. For her, however, is the trick of livening the prevailing dullness by linings of striking b rillian cy or of adding some bright touch to relieve the otherwise somber effect of the costume. A waistcoat of silk or of embroidered leather Is a means to this end, but the woman who catches at such sartorial straw s must be sure to choose a style th a t is becoming. The “grande mademoiselle\ variety, for example, with Its bouffant 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. AMERICAN i - : When you buy an automobile what do you really buy? Do you only buy the material and labor? Or do y o u buy what a car stands for in repu tation, in aehievinerit, in excellence of rank? When you buy a car, you believe what the maker says of it. You buy material and labor ■plus reputation. Reputation in motor car building is most important. c Without reputation, your metal, rubber and wood would be merely a highly polished mech anical assembly. With it, you are certain of sat isfaction, pleasure, health, and efficient travel. Chevrolet reputation is founded on complete satisfaction. We could not have grown with out it. G E O . V.

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 low at one side and are scarcely visible a t 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-fcided effect is logically th e next experiment. So f a r many satisfactory results have been achieved. The dress shown may be trimmed with braiding in self or contrasting color or merely In stitching w ith heavy floss. Or if some more elaborate trim; mlug touch Is required, wool embroid ery may be recommended, especially if wool jersey cloth is selected for the gown. T h is is a good model for an early spring street or utility frock, and Is not one that would present serious difficulties even t o the average home dressmaker. The gown is a close reefed affair, and quite narrow. ! Faille silk or silk poplin gould be used for n frock of this type if some thing more dressy than one of the knit- ; ted weaves is desired, with heavy em broidery serving as the trimming. !

Coming, us the reform does, at the hour when spring and summer fash ions are being conceived, the necessity for being careful 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 ghtwelght worsted clothes for Febru ary, March and April; but they are quite willing to have the worsted en livened by chiffon, satin, silk o r georg ette crepe. If the women o f this country under stand what Is behind the new fashions they will enter Into the spirit of con servation with as much eagerness and zealous desire to d o right as they have In the saving of meat, wheat, sugar and cereals.
