This is a Snake Story
Last week while Mr. Yv. L. Stine

"Good Morning," and looking up he
found a snake darting its head and
thrusting out its tongue at the well
digger, who immediately sent a
radio to the men at the windlass
who heaved to and soon had Will at
the top. Supplying himself with
fighting utensils he was again low
ered, but the snakeship had taken
to the rocks of the wall and after
having cleaned out the well, and was
being elevated to the surface again,
he found the snake had crawled to
near the top of the well, when a well
directed blow from a shovel severed
the critters head and thus relieved
Mr. Stine's feelings.

Gowns on exhibition at the open

Sleeves are long, necks are high
and skirts are in three lengths for
street wear, six to eight inches from
the floor; afternoon gowns below
the ankle, and evening gowns just
escaping the floor.
"The various frocks are stunning
for the tall woman," said Madame
Alia Ripley, president of the league.
"But one must be at least five feet
six or seven to look well.
"The young girls who are not tall
must not necessarily adopt the ex
treme styles. They are wise if they
accept a becoming compromise half
way between knee and ankle."
The smartest thing in street cos
