There is much that might be writ
ten on an occasion OF this kind-ret-
respective, retrospective and pros
pective.
But why take up the time and
space.
The past cannot be recalled even il
we would improve upon it.
The present only is ours and the
future we can only hope for.
1t Is we'll with us that it has not
been worse-and we have much to be
thankful for.
That the paper has survived as

and acting in the sphere in which it
conceived to be it's mission it has not

USES FOR WASTE WOOD.
Most Recent Have Origin in Demand
For AlcohoIs and Acids.


Uncle Sam is concerned about the
wilful waste of wood which seems
predestined to create woful want.
Millions of cords of wood is wasted
every year in the forests and on the
farm because this wood Is not suit
able for the various mechanical uses
for which wood is employed There
are. however, numerous means of
disposing of this waste. Aside from
tanning and paper making, which
are chemical industries that have
been established for hundreds of
years. there are other industrial uses
of more recent origin which are of
agricultural importance.
Important among these are de-
'structive distillation, recovery of tur-
pentine, resin; paper pulp, prepara-
ton of alcohos and manufacture of
acids. These are growing industries
because of a steadily increasing de-

The new parasols are entirely new
ideas and very attractive they are,
too.
In all cases they carry out the
same effect as this years gowns
They are built on long lines and
lslimness is the keynote. They are
void of all fluff and frill.
Some of the handles are of extreme
length, which can be carried only by
tall, graceful women, who possess the
art of managing them.
There are some new materials or
combinations of material being used.
Raffia is one of these. On the edge
it isfringed about four or five inches
The handles Of these are very
straight sfairs OF twisted raffia over
a frame Of wood They are set here
and there with colored crystals. These
are stylish with tailored suits Of nat
ural colored linen on pongee.
There are some lovely parasols for
afternoon wear Of tulle of chiffon over
silk. Those of lowered chiffon, the
flowers of course being of a soft colo,
over white satin are really lovely.
Then there are those of tulle, en-
broidered with garlands of flowers
and made up over taffeta or satin, OF
white or pale shade. to harmonic
with the embroidery. go
For these tie handles must be in
keeping. Carved ivory is perhaps the
Ihandsomest and with care lasts not
lone but several lifetimes.
Some Of us are fortunate to resur-
rect quaint ones used by our grand
mothers. and nothing could be more
attractive.
This years handles are all plain
ones, with no curves or ornament on
the top. There are pretty ones OF
Dresden china. but they are almost
too perishable TO consider.
Repousse silver ones. those oil
natural wood and wood enameled are
in good taste.
One attractive black parasol is of
satin, with a three-inch band coming
not quite to the outer edge of the
|tiniest of seguins. This has a severe
ly plain handle of ebony

The crude products from distila-

cohol, acetates, acetone, charcoal,
turpentine, wood. oil and oxalic acid
are directly or indirectly obtained on
a commercial scale from woods, and
the yield is governed largely by spe-

as well as by the way in which the
manufacturing process is carried on.

Whatever else fashion hints there

is to be stylish in the near future.
Therefore women who are not thin
are keeping up all kinds of methods
to make them so.

sequently this diet is strictly kept by
women who are willing to sacrifice
to be thin.
