Carrying
Bundles
Is Quite
The Style
Now!
When my lady goes a-shop-ping
she takes a big bright
hued bag along and when she
gets home her purchases are
right along with her. She
proves her patriotism and says
she enjoys it, too.
Just another demonstration
of how the women of these
United States are doing their
"bit" to help win the war for
humanity and democracy.
It has been but a short time
since the average woman had
her spools' of thread, her yard
of ribbon, delivered to her
door by a motor truck and
two men, as much a matter of
course as she did her rolls of
carpets or a heavy winter coat.
Of course Dame Fashion
came to the rescue by produc
ing something just suited to
the particular need at this par
ticular time the njost fetch
ing possible shopping bag
made of silk or flowered cre
tonne and on the arm of the
fair shopper they manage to
lend a sort of Dolly Varden
air to the most sincere of
these new patriots. And pa
triotism of all things must be
cheerily accomplished.
