WENT OUT TO SEE The
WIDE, WIDE WORLI'

Sheriff Louthan has as his guests al
the Royal hotel two young ladies' who
are in trouble. They have been there
since Sunday and the sheriff would
like for their mamas and papas to take
them of his hands but SO far he hasn't
been able to shake them.
The girls are Jessie Smith, aged l6,
Of Bakersfield Calf, and Nora Craw-
ford, year younger, Of Clovis, N. NJ.
They are very lady-lixe misses, mod
est and refined, and it appears that
their only fault was an over-weening
desire to see the wide, wide world.
Jessie says she left her home six
months ago and went to Clovis to
visit her grandparents. Here she met
Nora and the two girls became good
friends A week or so ago Jessie's

The two girls arrived in Ninnelalr

that Uncle Anthony had moved away,

lost the road and didn't know where
they were going but they were on the
way all right.
When the girls didn't come back

came uneasy and started out to look
for them. He found them the next
morning at a farm house two or three
miles west Of Cement where they had

SPRING HATS
For Ladies Look Like Vege.
table Gardens

For sprng it is to be the vegetar-
ian hat. Hay corn, hops, wheat and
grasses will be the thing. And,
bound not to be outdone in the race
for simplicity, the parasol makers
have taken to grasses too.
The woman who wants to be real
ly in style when the sun recovers
from his winter indisposition will go
about looking for something like
Hottentot belle carrying a miniature
greass house over her head. For
the new parasols have changed as
much in shape as they have in ma
terial
only four ribs hold out the roof
like structure. The rafiia grass used
to weave them is the same as that
from which children make baskets in
school The grass is imported. 1t
likewise forms the foundation on
many of the spring head garments,
and is also used for the trimming,
Wide ribbons are braided from
the grasses and end in a long, loose
fringe. These are tied easily around
the crowns and allowed to drop off,
Mexican fashion. The fringy, wavy
grass effect is also carried out in the
parasols. In their whole makeup
there is no attempt at neatness or
exactness of finish. Around the
base of each little tent roof runs a
rough hem of more grass. From
this hangs a thick fringe of grass
ends. The whole Is the color of a
faded rope. For convenience in
carrying, a grass arm loop is attach
ed at the top.
The novelty in parasols will appeal
to many, although the parasol craze
has never been fully developed in
this place. In many towns the sum-
mer shoppers carry fancy parasols
in preference to wearing hats, but
not so here, for when the need OF
parasol is apparent, the substantial
silk ones are preferred.
