Trlnters aren't the only folks who make typographical errors. And painters aren't the only folks who ought to know more about color schemes. Try "symphonic dancing" to "bring out the soul."

Let's see, they entertained Doo Cook in Norway, didn't they? the paving contractors were being held up by the city construction, and they knew It wouldn't bo finished for some time, why did they Jerk out those crossings T As Hashimura Togo says: We ask to know. Bet a deaf and dumb man could sell those Norwegians oil stock. A literary education cannot be ac quired in homeopathic doses. Engineer Grant drew a pitiful pic ture of the paving contractors, at Tuesday's council meeting. He BfH they were Just Itching to get to work, but that the city, with its storm and sanitary sewer work, was in the way. Any excuse is better than no ex cuse. Of course, If the paving contrac tors had their machinery and men on the ground, this argument would have more effect. j What we want to know is this: If This Bank and Women Every woman should come in and get acquainted with this Bank and its facilities for helping her in her finances.

Here In America, one of the saddest effects of our so-called "Americanization" is the promptness with which our alien residents discard the plcturei que , garb of their natlvo land for tho cheap and hideous imitations of what I happens at the moment to be the cur- rent style among purchasers of ready- j made garments. Many a foreign- born woman looks better with a ker chief over her head than sho ever will with a befeathered monstrosity which some ono has told her is an Ameri can hat.
