ple to make, as the overdress is cut

measure. Size 36 requires 2 7-8 yards
36 or 40 inch material for overdress
and 1 3-4 yards 36 inch material and 2

ADMIRAL SIMS
(Continued From Pair One.)
hasn't "anything to do with the indis
cretions of Ambassador Harvey, who
comes under the State Department. So
many people in their messages have
told Secretary Denby that he oughf
to .let Sims alone ' because Harvey
wasn't punished for his speech in Lon
don which offended so many members
of the American Legion. But the Sc
retary of Navy feels that he isn't deal
ing, with Ambassador Harvey and that
his only obligation i to Ami with a.
miral Sims irrespective of what any
j other department of the government
may do. Some people seem to think
Ambassador Harvey was indirectly re
; buked by Secretary Hughes when the
; latter in his speech at Brown Univer
; sity a week ago expressed a view in
i absolute contradiction of Mr. Harvey's
original speech. The rebuke for Ad-
miral Sims, however, will not be indi
rect. It will be published on board
every ship in the navy and at evey
naval station which, of course, is tne
, practice when a reprimand is ordered"
Admiral Sims will be punished for hi
indiscretion. He has been reprimand
ed before, however; and the experience
doesn't seem to have shaken the
aplomb of th veteran sea-dog wh-
strode the corridors of the new navv
building today with the same serenitV
and confidence as If he were pacing he
quarter-deck.
