which expresses this pretty well: Prices to

support such platform as that Kings
Palace has needed particular facilities. We
have had to establish large workrooms.
Our millinery importations have been made
direct. We have kept the closest watch
ON the business Of the whole millinery
world But the chief levers in our efforts
to make trade have been those already in
dicated-underselling and advertising.
After many. trials of other methods the
managers of Kings Palace have restricted
their trade announcements to the daily
papers Of Washington. They believe that
no other means reaches the potential buyer
with so much certainty or in so favorable a
light. To one glance at a billboard the
woman buyer in household gives ten to
a newspaper. She sees the biliboards from
the street cars only when she has made up
her mind from the newspapers what to
buy and has set out for some particular
thing. AS for the men, all the street adj

In Washington Papers Only.

"Our advertising is confined exclusively
to Washington papers. This is because the
Washington field is at present large enough
for our facilities and because every one in
Washington reads the local papers OF all
the advertising we do, The Evening Star
gets at least one-half. This is a direct con-
sequence of direct results. These results
are due to The Stars greater circulation, to
the fact that it goes into the home and
stays there, to the fact that it Is read by
every member of the family of reading
age, and to the fact that it Is invariably
clean and wholesome.
Kings Palace thus demonstrates in the
most practical way its faith in The star

vertising medium. 1t covers the entire

tire city. AS Kings Palace and The Star

Those present were NJ. H. Buckham,

board organized by electing Presi-

Losing Our People.

That there is something wrong in
our governmental methods in Yer
mont is conclusively shown by the
fact that our state, proportionately,
has given to her sister states more
than any other member of the Union.
Vermonters equalliDg in numbers
nearly one-halt of the present native
population of the states, having
gone out from us. Virginia,
New Hampshire, Nevada, Maine and
Delaware have each sent out numbers
equalling about one third of their
present native population.
This migration from one state to
another, however, does not appear
to be limited to New Englanders. Ac-
cording to rhe National Geographical
Magazine, at least one person in
every five native-born Americans is
living in state other that in which
he was born-a striking instance of
the mobi i5y of the people of the
United States.

+ates, according to the last census,

one-ifth, or 81 3per cent, were living
in adopted states. 1t is interesting
to note the number of sons and
daughters which the different states
have sent out. New York has sent out
more than 100000, Pennsylvania
early 100000, Ohio more than L.
loo, 900, Illinois over 1 100000, and
Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Missouri,
Tennessee, and Virginia over 100000

Numerically, Illinois has received
more citizens from other states than
any other member of the Union-near-
ly l, 100000; S55, 900 have entered
Missouri; S3S, 900 Texas, and over
100000, New York and Ohio. The
states that show net gain from this

How to Prepare and Cook n Goose,

A goose is. the typical Christmas
bird, although most families dine on

a green goose. Yellow and flexible
feet are a sign of youth. A goose is

ner as a turkey, but the skin should
be thoroughly washed.
Sage and onions are the traditional
seasonings, and a very good way to
stuff a goose is to boil and mash some
white potatoes and season highly with
onion juice, sage, also salt and pepper.
Dredge the outside lightly with salt
and pepper and thickly with flour.
Lay the goose on rack in the baking
pan and put a few tablespoonful of
water in the pan; haste often. Twenty
minutes to the pound is the average
time to allow for the baking. Garnish
with blood oranges cut in sections on
parsley, celery tips or any other green
garnish.
Make a sauce from the contents Of
the pan, thickening with flour, and
after straining add the giblets, which
have been cooked until tender in wa
ter and chopped coarsely.
An old goose cannot be cooked salts
factorily in this way. 1t will need to
be parboiled and then bralsed.-Chica-

A Happy Christmas Custom Among
Swedish Peasants.
Christmas is celebrated in Sweden to
an extent unknown in our country, and
the celebration is not over until Jan.
13, or twentieth day Yule." A very
pretty feature of the festivities is thus
described by writer who has visited
that country: One wintry afternoon,
at Jul-tide las the season is called, |
had been skating on pretty lake three
miles from Gothenberg. On my way
home / noticed that at every farmers
house there was erected, in the middle
of the yard, pole, to the top of which
was bound large, full sheaf of grain.
"Why is this?' l asked my comrade
ooh, that's for the birds, the little
wild birds. They must have a merry
Christmas, too, you know" And so it
is; not peasant in. Sweden will sit
down to a Christmas dinner within
doors until he has first raised aloft a
Christmas dinner for the birds in the
cold and snow without.-Pittsburg Dis

George Chapman of Hardwick has
in his possession some interesting old
newspapers. One is a Baltimore
(Md) Patriot, issued May 80, 1925.
Conspicuous in it are the advertise
ments for negroes, the advertisements
stating that the highest cash prices
will be paid for so many negroes of a
certain sex and age. And another
was Vermont Patriot, published at
Montpelier, April, 1929. In it is adj
yertised a Vermont lottery, with
$4,000 as the capital prize; also a
Boston and Burlington stage line.
This advertisement states that the
farewill be as low as any other line;
gives time of leaving Boston, and
states that the coach "tarries at
Concord, N. H, for the night" and
arrives in Burlington on the third
day; in this paper, too, it is seen that
Gideon Burnham, of Woodbury.,
gives his son, Stephen c. Burndam,
the remainder of his time during his
minority, and that a Montpelier
tradesman offers a reward for the
capture of an "idented" apprentice
who had run away.
