NEBRASKA HORSES ARE FAST
Good Time Made on the Nebraska
Circuit,

IF anyone thinks that there we're not
some good horses racing on the Nebraska
circuit this year, they have only to watch
the later records of some of these and
they will see the error Of their ways" said
Bud Latta, president of the Tekamah Speed
association.
These horses not only stepped some
while in Nebraska, but some have been
going faster since leaving the state. Ginger,
owned by Hal Brown of Salt Lake, entered
in the 2:12 pace at Tekamah, Fremont, and
Columbus, made a mile in 2:07h at Par
sons, Kan, last week.

three other local automobilists Ream had
gone out to bring in a Pierce for which he
had traded. On the road he ran up with
the others and the run began. After it
ended at the Dodge macadam, it was dis
covered that several batteries were missing,
and the rest of the evening was devoted
to going back over the road and recovering
the lost parts.
Webb Jay like to tell how the Omaha
newspapers printed the story Of the street

every car was tied up, that all of the con-

ILL OMEN OF SPILLING SALT.
Superstition Has Come Down to Us
from the Ancient Romans.

Girls and boys have all heard, per.
haps, that it is "unlucky" to spill salt,
but that the evil effects may probably
be averted by throwing some of it
over your right shoulder 1t is won
derful how old some of these super
stitions are! This one about the salt,
for example, came to us from the
ancient Romans. Salt was regarded
by them as an emblem of publication,
and they always placed some on the
head of victim in sacrifice. If the
salt were spilled in doing this, 1t was
looked upon as bad omen.
1t is said that the Romans got the
custom from the Jews, and after a
while the spilling of salt on any occa-
sion was regarded as unlucky. The
custom of throwing part of it over
the right shoulder arose from their
belief that anything pertaining to the
right side was lucky, but to the left
side, unlucky.

ends of the scarf are caught, or, more
strictly speaking, gathered in and fin

as well as adding to the charm of the
front of the gown.
In the soft shades of pink, blue
mauve, green and, in fact, in all the
light pastel colorings, these scarfs are
exquisitely pretty, and they are per-
haps especially charming made up in
the shaded chiffons which are now to
be had designed especially for yelling
for the large motor hats now in vogue.

Gold and Brown

One OF the combinations coming in
to first style for indoor gowns is
bronze satin. 1t is used for an. en-
pire skirt that reaches to the bust. and
above this is a bodice of bronze Sc
gums mixed with gold thread, run on
brown net.
The bodice is made in the usual
way out of bands going around the fig
ure and over the arms. The only touch
OF any other color is bit of white
tulle at the neck ard sleeves.
This combination is adopted for
elaborate low-necked f-ocHs worn for
special-occasions. As tale brown is
not considered among the evening col
ors, but this coppery bronze tone
shows off the heavy bullion trimming
in an effective manner, and lights up
well under the electrics.

ever! The safest of ali is the clear
mesh with moderately large chenille
spots. To fix 1t to the hat, always min
1t in front first to the brim, then pin
the two top edges together at the
back OF the crown. The ends are then
gathered into knot, so that the lace
lies quite smoothly across the face.
The greatest care should be taken
with the back of the veil, which must
meet as nearly as possible over the
back of the hair, and do not let the
lower edge fall below the chin. Twist.
ing 1t into knot under the chin is
abominable. When the veil is removed
from the hat it should be rolled over
a cardboard roll easily made for the
purpose. An irvariable law should be
that the veil must match either the
hat or the trimming. The old rose
and the deep red shades in yelling
