The flap of the bag may be cut to a point or have rounded corners and should button over. The bag may be bound with braid or worked with a buttonhole stitch about the edge. and have a mon. ogram in the corner.
 The woman who likes to knit will enjoy making knitted reins for some child. These are made so as to slip over the neck of the child like a har. ness and if trimmed with numerous little bells will be a great delight. They may also be made from ribbon. The ribbon hoops for the baby, also with their tiny tinkling bells, may, quite as well, be covered with bright knitted yarn. Another gift for the baby is chamois ball. This is made from pieces of chamois cut about the Si6S anu SAopS oA tue StCtiOuS OI dE orange and crocheted together after the edges have been buttonholed. When this is stuffed with cotton it makes soft, pretty ball.
 Another gift for his small highness which his mother will also appreciate and his father will borrow when he has the toothache, is the tiny hot water bag which has been covered with crocheted bag or one made of soft flannel.
 A thoughtful little gift fo- the work bag is the scissors protector. Cover a cork with crochet of colored silk and crochet chain by which it may De attached to the work bag. Then when the scissors are not in use the point may be stuck into the cork, instead Of boring holes in the contents of the bag as they have a way of doing.
 If one is anything of an artist. Christmas shopping is robbed of its terrors, for the things that may be made from hand-tinted silks or hand decorated paper are legion There are the delightful Empire shades for the bedroom lamp, and the smaller shades for the candle or electric drop-light- For the lamp shade one can get the wire frame very cheapiy.

The edges may be finished with passepartout tape and the decora- tions should consist of medallions of paper in two contrasting shades, one above the other, with silhouette, if possible. in the center. or group of small figures cut from some old print About the medallions should De painted delicate sprays of leaves, or if one is not able to paint, wreaths may be cut from wall papers of appropriate design.
 More expensive and elaborate shades have thin silk shirred over the frames with a finish at the top and bottom of tiny roses made from ribbon Another idea for the bedroom gift is the coloni- al pincushion. Buy one of the inex- pensive glass candlesticks in colonial design. Cut a small square of card board, perhaps about four inches square. and cover one side neatly with cretonne Form a mound-like cushion of cotton on the other side and cover with the cretonne. Then fasten the cushion on top of the candIestick by fine wires or thread and sew around the edges of the cushion about two- inch fringe of white beads. You VIII have most quaint, unique cushion.
 Sets of heavy white envelopes in the corner of which have been painted sprays or wreaths of blossoms may contain all sorts of helps around the house" such as rubber bands, labels for fruit jars or medicines. choice recipes. and also sachet powders. and a dozen or so dinner cards all deco rated for use. For the schocl girl an envelope bearing the words Sweet Sixteen" could contain sixteen tested recipes for candy.
 Attractive buckles may be mado from padded ovals or circles of card board covered with velvet or silk and having simple design worked out ia jet beads. or tiny jewels. A silk cord may be fastened through tho center of the buckle and the buckle then threaded onto soft ribbon or sash.

An embroidered candle sh e mounted on a. wire frame, which has been covered with thin silk the color of the boudoir for which it is intended. would be appreciated by the woman who has the washable" hobby.
 An attractive tray may be made by having an embroidered centerpiece framed in plain wood frame. The back should be covered with felt, and brass handles may be added to the fraSa if wished.
 From linsa crash may be made a neat covering for the contents of a suitcase, ejlher bound about the edges with braid or finished with scal- lop embroidery and having mono gram in one corner. Then there Is an infinite variety of bags which may be made fnrm linen or crash or cretonne, from the delicately embroidered, lace trimmed t,orset bag to the sturdy kitchen bas for string, or dust cloths, or clotnespinS.
 A most inexpensive gift is crochet buttons. These may be all the same size or in assorted sizes. The wooden molds are first covered with white linen over cotton cloth, and then the crochet circle of the proper size fitted over them. They should be caught on to dark green card which might have a Christmas greeting painted on in fancy lettering.
 The jabot will be an appreciated gift again this season as it's popularity has not seemed to wane in the least. These are most acceptable in any form. either having the tailored effect of hemstitching and tucks, primly scalloped edges and tiny buttons. or the fluffy, frilly charm of fine faces and dainty embroideries.

New School Code.

Pierre, S. D., Nov. 28.-The
proposed new school code, which
will be presented to the legislature,
is a radical departure from the
present system. in that it puts the
general educational system of the
state under the direction of the
state board of regents of education
instead of the state superintendent
of instruction, who under the new
plan would be an advisory instead
of an executive officer.
1t sets aside the present system
of certifcation of teachers through
markings by the state department,
and while the substitution for such
a plan may be plain enough in the
minds of the trainers of the new
law, to an outsider the plan to be
substituted is rather vague and TIL
certain. 1t is asserted that it at
tempts to take away local self
government from the schools and
provides for school districts to be
governed by district boards. The
counties are to be the unit, with
smaller districts where counties
contain cities. The people of each
local school are to select a school
director, who is to be their repre-
sentative before the school board,
so far as talking is concerned, but
is not to have any voting power in
the deliberations of the board.
The new code attempts to cut
loose from direct state appropria-
tions for the maintenance of state
educational institutions, and to
provide for their support by a di-
direct tax levy to be kept separate
from and handled outside of the
state general fund. This has beer
attempted at several Legislative
sessions, but has never mustered
enough strength to get much OF {
showing.

PRESENT MOTTO
PRONOUNCED GOOD
REPRESENTATIVE CITIZENS GIVE THEIR
VIEWS RESPECTING PROPOSED
CHANGE.

1t appears that the majority oil
business men in town and 9th
ers, believe that the motto: Watch
Timber Lake Grow!' is good
one and hard to improve upon
Briefly stated here is what few
representative men think:
G. E. Breckenridge: Il likec
the motto, or slogan, from the frs,
except that it has been used CON
siderably other places, especially
out on the coast
w. H. Greenman: Il think
Watch Timber Lake Grow!" is
very good. Might change it to
Timber Lake is on the Boom.
However that would be about the
same thing"
Ed L. Milligan: After we get
the land office we might change it
to The Town That Does
Things.
S. NJ. Smith: Il don't favor a
change. Our present motto is too
widely known. 1t would be just
the same as for Washburn- Crosby
& Co. to change the name of Gold
Medal Flour. They would lose all
they have gained by years of adj
vertising AS to the complaint
that it is not original, well, in this
day and age of the world nothing
is spoken Or written but what the
idea has been expressed before"
Fl. C. Limerick: Il agree with
the ADVOCATE that Watch Tim
Der Lake Grow!" is hard to inn
prove upon
Logan Fain: Il don't care
much what motto is used. It's
the work OF the men behind the
town that counts.

PHONE EXCHANGE
MAY BE BUILT
COMMERCIAL CLUB CONSIDERS PROP0.
SITl0N MADE BY EXPERIENCED
men.

At the Commercial Club meet
ing Monday night the proposition
of J. O. Elder to build local tel
ephone exchange was considered
and a committee of three-Alex,
w. Stow, G.. E. Breckenridge and
w. H. Waterbury, were appointed
to look up the references furnished
by Mr.. Elder as to the standing o.
the men who he represents and al
SO as to the service they have Civ
Ell in the country where they have
had exchanges.
Mr.. Elder has been the general
manager Of "a firm who have been
operating in North Dakota fol
several years. He is thoroughly
acquainted with the construction
and operating end of the business
and after the committee reports, il
favorable, he will go ahead and
see how many phones will be con-
tracted for and if sufficient num-
Der is secured material will be or
dered and even construction work
begin should the weather permit it,
if not the material will be on hand
ready to begin early in the spring
What is sadly needed here at the
present time is long distance SER
vice and an effort will be made in
the spring to have the Dakota
Central or Northwestern lines ex-
tended to this point. 1t is thought
that the chances of getting in a
long distance company will be bet
ter if we already have a local sys-
tenn.
The proposition of Mr.. Elder
brings the matter before the atten-
ton OF Our people and it is almost
certain that he or some other con-
Germ will begin the work as soon
as the weather conditions next
spring makes it possible.

Joseph Bradford came to Timber
Lake about May Ist from his home

robust boy, very large for his age
and appeared to be several years
older than he really was. He was
taken sick with typhoid fever about

about four weeks of high fever he
seemed to be on the mend and his
recovery was hopefully looked for
Nearly a month ago however, he
was taken worse again and while
at periods since he seemed to be
better yet his condition was at al
times dangerous, and he finally

Sandy Brown lived and moved and
had his being in Bond street. In fair
weather or in foul you could find him
somewhere i'll the short thoroughfare
between Broadway and the Bowery.
For thirty years or more this had been
Sandy's little world, You never saw
him anywhere else save in Bond street,
and always walking up and down the
pavement, slowly, solemnly. with his
hands behind him. And Bond street
folk tolerated Sandy-poor, old. eccen-
tric Sandy. who was trifie queer in
his head.
But really. to he very truthful, the
old man was no longer sandy. His red
beard had turned to iron gray. SO had
his hair He was lean and lank, long
armed and lopg-legged, and more or
less ragged There were lapses here
and there in his front teeth, and his
Adams apple reached out into space
like the breastbone OF a Thanksgiving
turkey.
Detective Bill Connor Of the Sixth
precinct had known Sandy Brown n
roodly number OF years-more than he
could remember, and many and many
time lie had stopped to chat with him,
And, if you recall having ever met
man could talk-about anything and
everything, in the earth, over the
earth. under the earth-it was the same
10 Sandy But there was weak spot
in the old mans brain-one small
wheel that went all wrong, and made
his queer.
War was Sandy's weakness-the
Civil war-that is what ratified him,
He was veteran-so he said-had
fought in many battle-and poor old
Sandy could not seem 10 realize that
the war was over, Mentally, he was
fortv-fve wears behind the times, He
complained because the newspapers
gave him no news of the war;
Early one afternoon III May, De
tective Connor and Sandy Brown came
face to face in turning the Bowery
corner
'"Hello. old chap, How be ye?' was
Bill's hearty greeting.
''Tolerbul, tolcrbul. Cap. replied the
other. ANY news from the front to-
dav? Where s Lee s army now D''
Connor shook his head. Some one had
told him wears ago that Sandy had been
struck a blow on the head at the battle
VI Geitysburg-that that was what
made the crooked streak III his brain.
Well. news or no news said the
old man. lit 5 about time the durn

the old man. Put it there. and he
held cut long. bony hand, which Bill
Connor clasped alphabetically.
