There is no remedy in the world
which has proven so popular for ca

more than thirty years and cured

and the even more elaborate costume for
afternoon wear, or for cool evenings
at summer resorts. Silk will also be
used for motor cloaks and for the
short, dressy wraps which will be much
in evidence.
The new silks are many, and most
OF them very lovely in coloring and

are not pronounced; indeed, there is a
harmonious softness among the newer
and better class silk materials which
Is really delightful.
While many fancy silks and radiums,
messalines and louisines are seen, pop

of course, the omnipresent pongee.
Taffetas seem to have taken an en-

prospect of endurance is held out.
The popular supple chiffon taffetas
lend themselves to graceful draping

There are many new and beautiful

and to give sympathy and comfort
whenever opportunity offered. and
that she never spake evil of friend

Harry Staehle is now teaching in

A teachers meeting will be held
in Manchester some time in Febru-
airy. The date will be the 23rd,
but will be announced definitely la
ter.
Owing to the large number of
small pupils, Miss Kate Oehler
closed her fall term in December
and is not teaching this winter. In
this district pupils are given eight
and one-half months schooling d.
vided into two terms.
The mid-winter graduating class
for Manchester eighth grade, gave a
very creditable performance. The
program consisted of the operetta,

gave an excellent account of himself
and showed the effect of much drill.
Miss Anna Sothman Of Dundee,
was recently married to Geo. Laity
of that place. Miss Sothman has
for several years been one Of our
best teachers. During the past two
years she has taught the Dundee
school. Mrs. Laity will finish her
present term of school, after which
she, with her husband, will move to
the Sothman farm south of Dundee.
The Teacher extends the congratu-
lations of a host of friends still in
the work.
Teachers holding first grade GER
tificates issued prior to Oct. l, 1905,
will be entitled to renewals by writ
ing thesis on one of several sub
jects chosen. Those holding second
grade certificates will be entitled to
the same privilege in all subjects
where the grade is 80 per cent. or
above. We would suggest to our
teachers that they take advantage of
these long winter evenings to make
preparation for this work as the
state board will accept only the best
effort. Remember a little work now
