COLUMN Conducted by the McCook W C T U AtfWWV1 1 LOYAY TEMPERANCE LEGION On Tuesday afternoon Mrs Gary Mrs Stevens and Mrs Beardsley or ganized a Loyal Temperance Legion at the M E church basement Through some misunderstanding in dates there ware not as many children present as wo wore anxious for Mothers if you wish your children to spend a profitable hour each week co operate with us by urging them to come every Tuesday afternoon at three oclock at the M E church basement Our Heavenly Father hear us now And help us keep this sacrod vow Though we are young Oh make us strong Always to fight against the wrong Bless those who join our band today That they may never from thee stray Oh keep them thine help them to stand For God and home and native land Send the lad with mo and we will arise and go that wo may live and not die both wo and thou and our little ones Gen 43 8 What is the object of the Loyal Temperance Legion The L T L aims not only to interest the boys and girls in total abstinence principles through the teaching of scientific temperance truth from care fully prepared text books called temp erance manuals but seeks to inculcate the very highest ideals and its purpose is in the broadest sense character building The whole effect is educa tional and it is founded on the principle which Miss Willard advocated that the real way to solve the temperance prob lem is to set before the young the truth concerning alcohol and the saloon give them a knowledge of their relation to society and to humanity and show them that the only way to stop drunk enens is to reach human souls before tho chain of habit has bound them CITY CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENTS Episcopal Preaching services at St Albans church at 11 a m and 730 p m Sunday school at 10 a m All are welcome to

of the G A R and at about nine oclock a loud noise and knocking was heard at the front door Mrs LeHew went to ascertain the cause and when she opened the door a remnant of the Old Army marched in and took posses sion in the name of the G A R Mrs LeHew surrendered on discretion and so did her terrified husband The bunch had evidently been on a loot and forage expedition because they had tho plun der with them They invaded the kitchen and pan try and helped themselves to what they could find They handed out a very palatable lunch among themselves and offered Mr and Mrs LeHew some Mrs LeHew was taken entirely by surprise by such a bold performance and for fear she wouldnt like it very well they left her a souvenir spoon and some dishes that they had gotten some where The invaders were Mr and Mrs J M Henderson Mr and Mrs W P Burns Mr and Mrs H H Berry Mr and Mrs W R Starr Mesdames W P Dutton Mary Northrup and Henry C Smith Tou are welcome to come again the latch string will always hang on the outside for such as you Com WEAR THE SEPARATE JACKET Garment Will Be a Feature Coming Season of the Quito a feature of the coming sea sons fashions will be the separate tailor made cloth jacket mado for wearing with odd skirts and slmplo frocks In light weight cloth pongee etc For some seasons past It has not been fashionable to wear separate jackets except of silk or lace The jackets have all been made to match the skirts and when a coat of differ ent material has been used it has been a top coat quite long or at least three quarters and loose In build whether made of cloth or silk But the new fashions show a very definite place for the tight fitting sep arate tailor made coat of cloth such as is shown a tight fitting cutaway with very little trimming and that little of the most severely tailored order White cloth Is most attractive in these separate tailored skirts It may bo used with stitching or braid of the same material for its only garniture but the smartest coats have collar and cuffs of black velvet The only style of coat which is most success ful in this severe development is a double breasted cutaway not very long and having only a slightly cut away effect not sharply shaped at tho bottom only but curving beautifully from the top of the front to the bot tom A little braid is used in conjunction with the velvet on the collar of the coat but on many of the most attrac tive models the braid is not otherwise employed ADVISES GIRLS TO STRETCH it Cures Pimples Red Nose and content Says Discoverer Stretch girls and be beautiful Is the latest cry of health agitators - Again stretch stretch stretch and be happy and good The secret of tho joy of daily living is daily and hourly stretching Just how far the new stretch system is to go is not known but according to last reports from the front the limit has not been reached Stretching is tho latest fad advanced by a femala stretcher who expounded her theories to a number of women who were anx ious to be beautiful yet happy This new method is guaranteed by Its dis coverer to cure dyspepsia discontent red nose blues humpback bad tem per run down at the heel and it will change your mind after you have been rehearsing what to say to hubby when he comes home late In fact at all crucial moments of life remember the slogan Stretch Chocolate Cure for Thinness There is a new cure for excessive thinness for which many women are going to an obscure little town in Ger many It seems to be a nerve cure as well as a chocolate cure for the peo ple taking the cure are out of doors most of time enjoying the scenery and exercising a little Then tho pa tients eat chocolate lots of it and all the time The secret of the success of tho treatment seems to be in the fact that the people become stout in the right places The arms become plump and round and the neck and -bust fill out gracefully The best part of it all is that the cure can be taken at home just as well and It is strange that people will travel so far out of their way to get such a simple treatment The treatment consists simply of eat ing chocolate all the time andNdrnk ing the beverage in large quantities Ornamental Lace Berthas For the satin princess gown or tho satin separate waist there are beauti ful oriental lace berthas of exorbitant prices or cheaper ones of beauty at much less cost Some of the finest lace ones are as sheer as cobwebs and show a touch of oriental work in tinsel effect The metallic arrange ment when good is attractive and really imparts a decided touch of ele gance to the rich lace The filet berthas with rich point lace edges are fragile and look their best when used decoratively upon soft chiffons of deli cate tint Pillow Tubing I want some of the cheapest and widest pillow tubing you have ex claimed the woman leaning over the linen counter You see I get this wide tubing to cover my best dresses All one has to do is to sew up one end and put a drawstring in the other Our house is dusty and this is the enly way I can protect my clothes from the furnace dust and gas ac cumulation The idea certainly Is a good one for often a dress will look old when not kept Perfectly olean and a whole suit could be slipped in the tubing and kept perfectly clean I0DIAN0LA lndianola has a fow cases of diph theria Charles Uorton was a Bartley visitor Tuesday Mr Evortson and ohildren visited in
