Republic encampment were the dedi-
cation of the Fort Meigs manument
and the civic parade. In the latter

feet in height was dedicated in honor
of the dead of Ohio, Kentucky, Penn
sylvania and Virginia who fell in the
battle around Fort Meigs during the
war of 1912. The dedication of this
monument was included in the Of
fetal programme of the encampment
and hundreds of visitors took the
pleasant trolley and boat rides from
this city to attend the exercises.
1t was at Fort Meigs that General
William Henry Harrison checked the
British advance under Proctor after
the general had protited by General
Hulrs surrender of Detroit. With cit
izsn soldiery gathered from Ohio,
Kentucky, Pennsylvania and Virginia
General Harrison succeeded in pre-
serving the American boundary as 1t

To BE Well Dressed.

Dress becomingly.
Be individual in your style.
Do not dress beyond your means
Learn the right. times and season foI
wearing your clothes.
Make study not of your good points
but of your weak ones before buying
your frocks and hats.
Learn materials and their wearing
qualities; especially If your clothes
must do duty another season.
Study color effects and know what
combines well, as well as what is suit
ed to your type.
Learn the lines that suit you and
stick to them. Only modify them enough
not to be hopelessly out of date.
Don't trust to what your dressmaker
or milliner tells you. Use your own
common sense
Do not buy frOck or hat because 1t
takes your eye. only to remember when
you get home that you cannot afford 1t
and have no suitable occasions for wear
ing it.
Get good things and few OF them
rather than the other way round. The
former will look well as long as they
hang together, while the cheap ones
look well till you are caught out In the
first damp day.
Don't try to make your CASTOR fnery
OF winter do duty for summer even
lngs. You will look fresher and sweeter
IN lO-cent lawn or Swiss, simply ana
Decomingly made, than in bedraggled
chiffon that has been danced into dis
