FAVOR colorado National Park.

Washington.-A number of letters
have been received by the Department
of the Interior recommending the es-
tablishment of national park in por-
tions of Grand, Jackson, Larimer and
Boulder counties, Colorado. 1t is pro-
posed to include in this reservation
Estes Park, Longs peak, Grand lake
and the cafons of Big Thompson river
and its tributaries. The area of the
proposed national park is about 600,-
600 acres, and the advocates of the
creation of the park believe it is of a
character totally different from any
existing national park. and further
more is much closer to the center or
population than any of the present
reservations.
Secretary of the Interior Fisher has
discussed the matter with ]. Horace
Mcfarland, president of the American
Civic Association and other repre-
sentatives of that organization, and 1t
was the opinion OF all who partici-
pated in the conference that before
any action could be taken 1t would be
necessary to have made very careful
examination of the area to be included
in the proposed park.

Colorado Birth statistics.

Denver-There were 10,s7O babies
born in Colorado during the year end
ing September 80; thirty daily visits
by the stork, with Denver having
seven every day, Colorado Springs
two day and Pueblo one every other
day. This is birth rate of one baby
to every eighty people in the state
Colorado Springs, with a population
of 10000, leads in the highest birth
rate, having had GIL births in the
year, or one to every fifty people, or
2 per cent of the population; while Pu-
eblo, with a population of 1895, had
only 29S births during the year. Colo
RADIO Springs also has the distinction
of leading the state in the number OF
twins, according to figures compiled
by the state board of health.

Mccormick Gets One to Ten Years.

Glenwood Springs.-In district court
Judge Shumate sentenced A. b. Nc
Cormick to one to ten years in the
reformatory for having secured money
under false pretenses. Mccormick
came to the Grand valley last summer
with letters of highest recommends
ton from prominent Colorado men
and other credentials and offered
farmers stock in the Bankers Inter
national Life Assurance Company of
Denver. George Sewers, Carbondale
farmer, purchased $1,000 worth Cf
stock supposedly in that company, but
when his certificate was delivered he
found that it bore the seal of the
Bankers Fidelity & Securities Com
pany, newly organized by Mccormick.

Standard Mill Closes.

Colorado Springs.-As a result of
the Standard plant of the United
States Reduction and Refining Com
pany closing down temporarily, a new
roaster, to cost $4,000, will be in
stalled by the Golden Cycle mill,
which, in addition to its own output,
will take care of the Standard mill
contracts, beginning the first of the
year. The Golden Cycle plant will out
put about 10000 tons month, and
many of the men who will be thrown
out of work at the Standard will find
employment at the Golden Cycle.

sheepmen Guard Flock.

Craig.-Sheepmen of this section
held a meeting here for the purpose
of organizing a body guard for George
Woolley, from whose flock ITO sheep
were maliciously slaughtered recent
ly. Woolley received 5000 sheep from
Denver, and to prevent further depre-
dations by his enemies, body guard
of nearly 100 men assisted him in
driving the sheep from Steamboat
Springs to Craig.

ONE-FIFTH Of the entire output of
creamery-made butter on the United
States comes from Wisconsin. This is
the product of about 1000 creameries,
which with the 1923 cheese factories,
represent the dairy manufacturing in
dustry of the Badger state. All of
these factories must be manned with
expert operators who are qualified to
produce uniformly high product from
week to week. The factory that turns
out these butter makers is the dairy
school of the college of agriculture of
the University of Wisconsin.

ALTHOUGH probably not generally
understood, still it is a fact that after
the first of May no more artificial col
ored tea will be allowed to come into
this country, hence there will be no
more green tea except such as remains
green when cured without the use OF
any coloring substance. Some teas will
have a greenish hue, others will be
brown and others will have yellow
shade. This change is by government
order and will eliminate all harmful
effects of the coloring that has so long
been used to give certain kinds of tea
an attractive green color. 1t is claimed
by some that the coloring matter that
has been so long used is harmless, but
evidently the government does moi
agree with this opinion.

The Parisienne's hatpins are COW

with perhaps beads introduced into
the silk. There is separate set to

The ends of sashes are embroidered
with dull gold with many colored me-

embroideries are seen on hand and
work bags.
q A simple yet effective decoration,
much favored In Paris, Is made by
threading thick strands Of heavy silk
with metal or multi-oolored beads,
using coarse bone crochet hook,

TIPS ON FANCY WORK
ny EDNA EGAN.

Just now tatting is all the rage
tatting done on two shuttles instead
Of one. and in richly colored silks,
purple and blue and crimson, in
stead OF white cotton. With this tat
ting are introduced beads of various
colors, or sometimes semi-precious or
artificial gems.
Then, to turn to embroidery, there
are fascinating collars made of white
lace worked in amber and silver beads
together The design of the lace may
or may not be followed, as the em-
broiderer prefers.
AS to hair ornaments, one Of the
loveiiest is silver tissue ribbon
worked in emerald green beads In
wavy lines; or white and black beads
or rhinestones sewed on ribbon of
the palest blue.
TUNES are edged by hand with
dangling ornaments, she beads some
times being weighted with shot to
make the tunic cling to the figure.
The beaded fringes are used on black,
of gold or silver ON black thnics, or
sometimes jadegreen or amethyst
ones: black and the brighter colors
are used on white. lG
In hat and hair ornaments, again,
there are cold ribbons studded with
turquoises, black with rhinestones,
green with pearls or turquoises, Ban
deaux, butterfly bows and cabochons
are all seen. Older women, especially
brunettes. are fashionlng for them

STRAW HATS

How many girls apspac. ths.T SRA y
hats are a retreat for AL the Gusi OK
the street?
Evidently he thought Dies not oc-
cur TO many, for few girls seem to
have acquired the habit of brushing
their summer hats.
Yet these same girls would never
think of going out OF the houre in
winter without carefully brushing Off
their hat, investigating its velvet
creases and making sure that no
caucus OF germs was being held In
its recesses.
The truth Is that the straw hat
requires just as faithful brushing as
does the winter one.
And It is the failure to do this
which results In tne appearance Of
spots after being caught IN rain
storm.
