THE uniform is the thing of the moment!
Time was when all women were enlisted in the army of fashion,
whose commandant's order was "dress differently." Today, love of
country surpasses all else. The leaders of the woman's war relief army
have commanded "dress alike."
By,their.runiforms you shall know in what branch they serve. The
thrill of a uniform, inborn in every feminine breast, may be expressed in no
prettier way than by the costume worn bv the Red Cross canteen wnrfcer
in her fresh, white aproi and trim blue-veiled sailor, she's a worthy picture
for the soldier boy to carry away with him as he accepts her gifts of
"smokes" and post cards at the railway sation. Mrs. E. H. Bftckner appears
here as the canteener.
A TRIO
The trio of workers to her right display the familiar Red Cross costume,
the chairman with the distinguishing feature of a blue veil (Mrs. Arthur
Mullin), the assistant chairman, or supervisor (Miss Margaret Smith), and
the "every-day" worker with the white veil (Mrs. F. H. Meyer). These are
the bandage and hospital garment makers.
V MRS. BALDRIGE
To Mrs. H. H. Baldrige belongs the credit for the design worn by the
women who pack the knitted garments at the state warehouse. Mrs. O. G.
Osborne, assistant state knitting inspector, is pictured in this sea green per
cale apron, with the head dress of white.
MRS. CRAIG
Mrs. R. W. Craig, chairman of packing supplies at the same work rooms,
wears the white apron with the square white cap fastened on the sides, the
aiark of the hospital supplies packer.
MRS. BOLIN
"Made in Omaha" is written on the label of the uniform, in which the
:hairmen of the public workshop perform their patriotic tasks. The wear
ers are proud of their exclusive pattern. The two-piece gown is of dark
blue linen, with white collar, and buttons set off by the supervisor's red arm
b5nd..The blue 8ailor and veU complete the attire, worn in this group by
Mrs. W. E. Bolin.
MRS. YOUNG
Drivers for the Red Cross salvage department wear the garb in which
Mrs. Blaine Young is posed. The short motor coat and overseas hat are
of battleship gray, with puttees and belt of tan leather. The armband of
green bears the insignia.
MISS SHUKERT
The uniform of the motor division of the National League for Woman's
Service, now a familiar sight on Omaha thoroughfares. Miss Isabel Shuktrt
stepped out of the service car to show how the fair chauffeur looks in her
khaki suit and cap.
MRS. REDICK
Most effective is the costume adopted by the chairman of the Red Cross
departments in the Masonic temple. Mrs. 0. C. Redick is gowned in the
street uniform. The insignia of the department is worn on the long collar
of the white tub frock. The war 6ailor is banded with white.
MISS ROSE
Clerical workers in this work center wear the gray veil with the white
apron, as displayed by Miss Abbie Rose.
MRS. WINKLEMAN
The kitchen soldier wins the war in her Hoover, cap and dress, looking
. ike Mrs. R. E. Winkleman does in this picture.
MISS REED
Those who choose to enroll in the land army have found' that the prac
tical uniform worn by Miss Elizabeth Reed as she does her patriotic spading
weets all requirements.
