If You Would Be Smart
Change Your Hair Style.
Changing your style of hair Cress
is as important in giving you that
"new-season" feeling as is a new
dress or new costume complete. New
ideas on hair fixing can refresh you
and vour wardrobe at any time of
year. Why not try one of the new
off-the-face styles to give you that
cool, fresh feeling so necessary when
one first dons dark autumn things.
For instanca, this new way of brush
ing the hair up off the face makes
you feel cooler, younger and smart
er all at once. You part your hair
at side or center . . . make a circular
part around the crown of your head,
then curl this next-to-the-face sec
tion up, back and under, so's there's
a halo around your head. For the
older woman or you who don't want
to cut your hair short on top, brush
it over to the sides and start the halo
further from the part. The general
idea, however, is to get a brushed-up-
and-away from the face look. It's
cool and easy to manage and will be
ultra-smart this season.
English women sew wide meshed
hair nets to black velvet ribbons and
tio them around back of the ears so
the back part of their hair is kept in
perfect curl while the front part is
soft around the face. Grand for sports
or riding In an open car.
Sorghums Get Test.
Are sorghums "drouth Insurance
crons? That's the test which these
crops are undergoing this year. They
are having their chance to prove
whether or not they deserve such a
title.
Demonstrational plantings thruout
the state were made last spring to
evaluate the various varities. At the
Nebraska Experiment Station the sea
son has been so dry and hot that
soghums have been greatly retarded
in growth. Many of the tall-growing
varieties are only two to three feet
high now.
The outstanding variety at the
Station is Cheyenne. This is an early
sweet-stalk variety grown chiefly for
forage. Day Milo, a short combine
type, looks second best now. Medium
and late maturing types at present
show no heads.
Atlas sorgo, popularly known, will
in most fields hardly head out. In
total forage produced through it will
probably rank at the top as in past
seasons. Atlas seed will probably be
extremely scarce next spring.. i
Sorghums in general, due- to un
favorable climatic conditions, have
probably developed more prussic acid
than is commonly the case. Care
should be taken, while pastures are
short and livestock more or less hun
gry, to see that they do not get into
sorghum fields. This Is likely to re
sult in serious loss of livestock. Even
though sorghum crops may be un
usually likely to contain prussic acid
this season, such crops when prop
erly cured may be fed with reason
able safety. If made into silage the
chances of poisoning appearing is
slight. Where well cured and fed as
fodder, there is very little danger of
poisoning although it does occasion
ally happen.
Sauces Add Variety to Meal.
Good sauces are one of the im
portant accomplishments of a cook.
They make for variety and often for
economy. An inexpensive bland sauce.
such a3 white sauce or milk gravy,
serves to "extend" the flavor of the
more expensive foods with which it
is served. For fresh peas, beans,
okra, spinach, kale or any of the
greens, many people think melted
butter, bacon fat or other meat drip
pings, with salt, pepper, and in some
cases lemon juice or vfnegar, are sea
soning enough. But a favorite way
to serve new potatoes, cabbage, car
rots, and onions is to "cream" them
in white sauce. Harvard beets have
a tempting sweet-sour sauce. Meats
have their gravies, puddings and
cakes their sweet sauces.
There are three families of sauces
those thickened with starch in
some form, those thickened with
eggs, and those not thickened at all
In each family there are many var
lations. Ana tnere are some sauces
that seem to belong to no family at
au. une wnue souce, and Its var
iations form the most numerous
group, and Is the most familiar to
cooks. This group uses corn starch
or flour as thickening.
The hollandaise sauces and the cus
tards are thickened with eggs. True
noiiandaise is made of butter, egg
yolks, lemon juice, and a little boil
ing water. The Bureau of Home Eco
nomics suggests cup butter, 4 egg
yolks, 2 tablespoons of lemon Juice
cup of boiling water, 4 teaspoon
salt, and a dash of cayenne. The di
rectlons for making are: Divide the

Forest Field Day.
The Nebraska National Forest at
Halsey will be host to hundreds or
tree planting enthusiasts on Sunday,
September 20, when the annual field
day is scheduled to be held there.
Over some 30,000 acres of timbered
sandhills, visitors will be guided to
inspect plantings made on the forest,
There they will see pines growing
luxuriantly out in the hills under
field conditions.
No definite program for the day
has been received as yet but Cass
county people are being invited to go
to the forest for an all-day inspection
of tree life. New picnic grounds and
swimming pool have been added
in the last year to make a visit more
pleasant.
With several thousand small seed
ling Clarke-McNary trees distributed
to local farmers each spring, it is
believed some of these tree planters
will want to see how such trees are
grown. All of the Clarke-McNary
pines come from the Nebraska Na
tional Forest.
AT M. E. CHURCH SUNDAY
Next Sunday evening, Sept. 20th
in the Methodist church auditorium,
Plattsmouth, Chapter F, of the P. E.

his subject at that time being the
Boulder Dam.

Paul Iverson
Speaks Before
the Rotarians
Plattsmouth Young Man Studying for
Ministry Gives Views of Mod
ern Day Conditions.
The Flattsmouth Rotary club had
a very interesting treat afforded them
on Tuesday at the weekly luncheon

"What the Young Man Entering the-
Clergy Faces Today." He very ably
discussed the problems of the world
tha't is now in the midst of a great
unrest and in which new systems and
ideals are being brought to the front.
His talk covered the social, economic
and religious life of the world, show
ing his deep study of the various
viewpoints of the world happenings
today. He pointed to the tragedies
that had covered the churches in
many of the nations as the result of
the churches not making concessions
to the trends of the time and the
adoption of the modern-ideas in the
dealing with the problems of the
people.
The young minister must find him
self in touch with the modern day
conditions and with all classes of the
people of the world.
He also urged that all effort 6e

nation and people in the changing
times that demanded more and

WESCOTT'S
Mummers Parade
is Witnessed by a
Record Number
Humorous and Fanciful Costumes
Noted in the Line of March of
Plattsmouth Merrimakers
As the curtain raiser for next
week's four days of festivity, the
Mummers parade last night drew out
some 1,500 to enjoy the offering of
the local people in the cause of the
King Korn Karnival.
The paraders, who had formed at
the American Legion building,
moved out on the march promptly at
8 o'clock, the roll of the drums of
the American Legion drum and bugle
enrna announcing the approach of
the funmakers.
The parade was headed by Cap
tain II. L. Gayer, king of the 1935
carnival and who was fittingly garb
ed.
The drum corps boys were array
ed in the comical costumes that char
acterized almost all of the long line
of marchers.
The court house employees created
a great deal of attraction as they
carried a large American flag in the
line of march and illuminated by the
red flares that lent a most attrac
tive touch.
The "lady in black" as she strolled
along the streets, cigarette aglow,
was the center of much curiosity
while ye walking bartender caused
much "suds" appeal as he tempted
the thirsty onlookers.
Superintendent Devoe and his
group of NYA workers also formed
one of the larger groups noted in
the line of march.
Perhaps one of the outstanding of
ferings was the high school band
which furnished the snappy march
ing music for the second division
of the parade and proved a real hit.
They were under the direction of
Peter Gradovllle.
As had been intimated, the demo
cratic donkey was in the parade, al
tho it was in a mood hard to handle,
but the elephant was not on the job
as had been expected.
A bicycling duo gave exhibitions
of their skill along the line of march
to add to the fun and enjoyment of
the crowds.
Among the marching hosts was
noted Charles Barnard, one of the
live wires in the King Korn group
and who was on his own in the pro
cession and undisguised.
Clowns added their part to the
general fun of the evening and was
a treat for the little folks who had
gathered to witness the parade.
The announcements were made
from the platform as the parade pass
ed, by Mr. Knott of the U. S. for
estry camp, who has served so ef
ficiently in this capacity on the last
several Wednesday night offerings.
Following the parade the lovers of
the old time dancing had a treat as
a dance was staged on the platform
at Fifth and Main streets and here
to the. old fashioned music there
were several sets danced.
