On first presentation the statement
that there is a right and wrong way for
a woman to put on her outside wraps
seems scarcely tenable. A little reiec-
ton, and, better still, a short period Of
observation, will Don disabuse the mind
OF such skepticism.
One of the pathetic sights of a shopping
trip to some people is that of an mex
perienced woman buying a wrap. She
finds a garment among the many offered

is what she wants; then comes the ques-

on chatelaines, or, mayhap, to

from the region that in maiden beats and

The Dairymcn's Meeting.

Additional facts in relation to the coming
annual meeting of the Vermont Dairymen's
association to he held at Rutland next week
show that it is to be great event. We do
not need 10 urge at great length the value
and Importance of these meetings. Those
who have attended them in the past know
that they are controlled by practical dairy
men and that the subjects discussed have
been subjects in which the dairymen take
lively interest. That a special effort has
been put forth this year TO make the Rut-
land meetings the most helpful and success
full OF any III the history of the association
is apparent, and that such will be the result
the managers feel confident. Instead of
withdrawing special attractions advertised
as the time of the meeting approaches, as is
so often done in such cases, new attractions
are announced. Greater premiums are
offered in both butter and cheese than ever
before and a full attendance of dairymen
and farmers is all that is needed to war
rant success
