i Every woman in the state is to be

ning school this summer.' Last year
the extension service of the college
or agriculture conducted canning
schools in thirty-three (owns, with a
total attendance "of more than 2,000
persons. Only those "attended who
pledged to teach other people. This
year, however, it will be possible to
hold a least :ten one-day canning
schools in every county in the state.
In counties where there are home
;emonstration agents the work will
be carried on under their direction.
In counties where there are no home
demonstration agents, the county or
district agricultural agent will have
charge. Any community desiring a
canning demonstration should notify
its agent at once.

THE fashionable woman is running
to trrav this mmtnrr errsv
a j eH
with ' quite a tinge of pink in its
depths. Our grandmothers would
have called it "ashes of roses." This
Uunic frock is delightfully developed
in gray Georgette crepe, with gray
and white bead embroidery around
the bust line, skirt border and sleeves.
The roll collar is of white georgette
crepe. 1 A soft girdle confines the
straight line tunic at the waist and
ends in two tassels. The girdle and
tunic edges is picot finished. This
gown has the advantage of looking
well on the young girl or older wom
an, and will make up effectively in any
shade of crepe, from navy blue to the
lighter tones of orchid, pink or pale
yellow. .

vacations which were a dismal failure,

in sizes 14 to 18, and also in rose and

shade of apricot daintily trimmed with
val lace and numerous cluster tucks,
with a flirtv sash of the material, is
priced $19.75.

1 m sure you'd all consider ,it a duty to
make at least some of your summer
wearables. -
Apropos of the above, I want you
wonderful bargains which the Bran-
deis' Stores offer in white and colored
wash goods. This thrift event comes
early enough to mean substantial sav-
on y"r summer wardrobe. I
w.as, "Own in the basement of Bran
dies yesieruay morning ana saw
many of the lovely summery fabrics
offered, and I assure you they are
Juite enticing enough to make you
want to buy not only for immediate
needs, but to lay in a supply for the
future, when it will not be possible to
secure them at such prices.
INEN, which has long been
been known as the aristocrat of
summer fabrics, is shown in some new
skirts at F. W. Thome's 1812 Farnam,
which are of stylish appearance, and
bound to be rich. in service. Thtflarge
patch pockets, and neat fitting girdles
are harness stitched in heavy thread,
and trimmed with buttons. These
skirts are wonderful values for $4.50.
Another very attractive skirt, which is
as reasonably priced as $3.75, is of
wash tricotine, with tailored envelope
pockets. Your summer wardrobe is
(incomplete without a skirt or two like
these, which can be so readily laun
dered.
RUFFLES, ruffles everywhere!

rock, but what boasts of a host of
rilly fluffy ruffles. And tell me. has
