entertainments have been arranged.
such as theatre parties, dinners and
automobile rides about the city. A
reception committee of prominent
Denver ladies has been named to
look after the welfare and entertain

The people of Denver and Colorado
are enthusiastic over the apple show.
Heretofore apple exhibitions have
been limited to county fairs and the
state fair at Pueblo and this is the
first attempt to hold a national ex-
position. The time is opportune be-
cause everybody in Colorado is talk

Spokane. Dec 29.-Oficials OF
labor unions in Spokane believe that
the action OF the city council in in
creasing the wage scale OF laborers
from $2.75 to SO day and that OF
teamsters from s. TO $3.50 a day
for eight hours work. beginning
April l. 1910, will have a general
effect upon wages in building and
other lines. With the exception Of
Butte, the scale to be paid in Spokane
for ordinary labor is higher than in
any other city in the northwest The
increase was obtained by the work
of the business agents of the two
Federal labor unions and two team
sters' organizations after a campaigs
of two months. There was no talk of
striking or other trouble. The rep
resentatives of the unions laid their
matter before the city council con-
vened in a meeting of the committee
of the whole and the demands were
discussed at length, with the result
that by unanimous vote the request
was granted under the terms of an
ordinance effective as noted

COLORADO APPLE
SHOW
ELABORATE PREPARATIONS ARE
BEING MADE AT DENVER FOR
SHOW ON CHARACTER OF SPO.
KANE EXHIBIT.

Denver, Col. Dec. 29.-Elaborate
preparations are under way for the
Colorado National Apple exposition
that will be held in the Denver Audi
forum January to 8. It Is the in
tention of the apple growers of Colo
RADIO to make this exposition the fin
est show of its kind ever held in the
west, and their efforts are being sup
ported by the Denver Chamber of
Commerce
Entries are open to all of the apple
producing states of the union and the
apple districts of Canada, but the
majority of the exhibits will come
from the western states. More than
5000 boxes of the choicest apples of
the entire country have been centered
up to date, and there is no question
that more than 10000 boxes will be
displayed in Denvers big convention
hall
Colorado takes great pride in her
apples and the crop this year is the
largest in the history of the state,
being 1900 carloads, valued at about
100000. However, the growers
of the Centennial state realize that
the states of the northwest as we'll
as California and New Mexico, have
reason to be proud of their apples,
and local growers know that the con-
test for honors will be a battle that
will be remembered for many years
in the apple world OF course, Colo
RADIO thinks she has the finest apples
in the world, and feels confident that
the laurels will remain at home. but
that question has not been decided by
any means. In the meantime Colo
RADIO extends a hearty and WHOLESOME
ed welcome to the apple growers of
the North American continent. and
particularly 10 those of her sister
states OF the west. to take part in the
great exposition.
The sixth annual convention of the
Western Fruit Jobbers' association
will be held in Denver cOncurrently
with the apple exposition. The con-
ventiOn will open on the morning of
January at the Brown Palace hotel.

there is a general feeling of rejoic-

structure. which is of the most flimsy
construction, was put up about ten

as a hotel building At one time this
building came very nearly being
blown over by one OF the heavy winds

necessary to decide on other biouseS.
for blouses of some kind we must
have at our command. 1t is all very
well for the fashion makers to affirm

a necessity for dressy occasions, but
for the street it is still in the minor

What kind of blOuses will be worn
with the short rough skirt and the
long coat to match? There are mate
rails enough, goodness knows, but
which is the favored one and what is
the exactly proper touch to a blouse
that is to be worn in the morning and
with rough suit: These seem TO be
the points on which we are becom-
ing somewhat fastidious A couple of
years ago woman thought nothing of
appearing in a forty dollar Irish lace
blouse and ten dollar short walking
skirt. Now she knows better. She
knows that she does not need fancy
blouse under such coat. and if she
wants to follow the mode she will
not have it.
The tailor madeS Of the season are
ultra severe and manniSh. and the
blouses worn with them must be in
harmony. First Of all. they must match
exactly in tone. and if the material of
the suit is striped the waist must be
striped also. These new blouses for
tailor suits do not call for lace or much

They have stocks of net over one lin

down the front and may have the be-

cascade or single plating or three
inch double plating that runs to a
point at the waist. These frills are
frequently bound with the material
The waists are made with long sleeves
