Ankle Support.

along the heel of the shoe. At a point
above the heel, or where the foot re-
quires someplay, the support has a
double hinge, thus permitting free
movements Of the ankle, while at the
same time preventing it from bend
ing far enough to cause a sprain.
Many people who are very fond of
skating are unable to enjoy the sport
because of weak ankles, which per-
sist in turning. 1t is this turning, too
which makes it so hard for some peo-
pie to learn to skate, there being diff
fculty enough in keeping perpen-
dicular position without having to
watch the feet This ankle support
will be found useful for beginners for
this reason, as it will give them more
confidence. A strong strap at the top
of the support buckles around the top
of the wearer's shoe.

To Save the TabIecIoths.

AS laundry work is a serious prop
lem in our home, I recently MADE a
dozen doilies from red and Whlte
checked toweling. These doilies are
- inches square, and were simply
bemmed on the sewing machine. They
are placed under the children's plates,
under the meat platter, and under
dishes containing fruit or vegetables
that are liable to spill while being
served. These doilies, or mats, are
easily washed, and my table doilies
keep clean three times as long as
formerly. They can also be used at
luncheon on a bare table.-SuburDaq

we're to have two little boys in Clyde
that weren't afraid of work.
The boys put S12 in the bank, the
result of their peddling, and they sup
piled the family table all summer and
far into the fall. Besides, the Brown
family cellar contained for winter use:
one and one-half bushels of popcorn,
one bushel of beets, three-fourths bush
ell of carrots, two bushels of potatoes,
twelve or fifteen pumpkins, and lot
of cabbages. There were enough
canned tomatoes to keep the family
supplied for months.

DON'Ts FOR DREssMAKERs
Some Valuable Little Hints for the
Women Who Make Their Own
Garments at Home.

Don't open a lingerie waist in front
style.
Don't use a deep navy blue this win
ter when a bright shade and royal
blue are the newer tones.
Don't save on any Innings or notions
in dressmaking.
Don't buy cheap black goods when a
decent quality repays you twofold.
Don't try to use stitching as trim
ming unless you know your machine
and have straight eye"
Don't make a walking skirt to dip
at the back; let it hang evenly all
around.
Don't begin your home dressmaking
with a tailored suit. this requires ex-
perience.
With paper patterns of exclusive
make you will find the extra shoulder
and underarm seam allowance suth-
cient for any ordinary alterations; ii
not you need a larger pattern. Pin
your pattern together and try it on
if you do not cut one of cheap muslin
and make it up, thus save slashing in
to dress goods until you are sure that
you are right.
Shape the bottom edge OF skirt
exactly with the pattern or it will new
or hang evenly Use snap fasten1ngs
at the placket opening and anywhere
else YOU can. Keep your clothes push
ed down about the waistline, the snort
ening of which indicates the hight OF

ADVOCATES GOOD HIGHWAYS

w. Page, director of the United
States Office of public roads and presi-
dent of the new American Association
for Highway Improvement, asserts
that the United States suffers a direct
loss Of $4O,0O0,O00 annually on account
of incorrect and inadequate methods
in the construction, maintenance and
administration of public roads
This enormous loss is nothing COM
pared with the indirect loss, through
excessive cost of transportation
which is caused by the burden which
bad roads impose upon the farmers
and others who use the highways, and
this amount, according to Mr.. Pages
report, reaches the impressive total Of
$25OO00,60C every year.
The American farmer is paying tvs
or three times as much to get his
products to market as the man who
tills the ground in Europe, and this
added cost Of transportation is known
to be an important factor in the high
cost of living problem. Road experts

RETURN FROM HUNTING
AND PROSPECTING TRIP

j. Mccall of McMinnyille, Fred
Hutton and Frank w. Masterson have
just returned to Grants Pass from a
hike" covering six weeks time which
they have spent on a prospecting and
hunting expedition.
The trio left Grants Pass for Mon
tague, went up Scott river and cross
ed the Marble and the Siskiyou noun
tains. While on their excursion they
made headquarters at Happy camp
near the sulphur springs on Elk creek,
where all the comforts of camp life
were thoroughly enjoyed.
They say that while passing thru
the mountains they saw between so
and 60 deer, but killed only what
they needed for fresh meat, as they
did not carry extra packs.
Mr.. Masterson was formerly associ-
ated with the Grants Pass Hardware
company, and when leaving here six
weeks ago, was in rather poor health,
but he returned robust and hearty.

NEW STEWARD HOTEL
RECEIVES FIRST GUESTS

John j. Curtis and daughter, Mrs.
A. H. Fetters, of Omaha, Neb., have
the honor of being the first persons
to register at the handsome, new
Steward hotel which, while not yet
finished, was graciously opened to
these guests by Manager Steward as
the result of request by A. N. Par
sons, who is a friend of the Omaha
visitors.
AS long as these guests had regis
tered, Manager Steward allowed 9TH
ers to come in, and the temporary
register shows guests from Portland
San Francisco and Los Angeles. The
San Francisco party spent Friday
night in the hotel and when they
went to pay their bill Saturday they
made vigorous protest at the
amount They were not satisfied
with the bill as presented and declar-
ed that they wanted to pay more,
that the accommodations and service
of the handsome new house was
worth more money than the rate call
ed for.
Mr.. Curtis and Mrs. Fetters are
here to look over their fruit ranch To-
Gated next to the Shank orchard and
which they purchased through Mr..
Parsons in March The orchard con-
sists of 25 acres, three acres in pears,
the remainder being in apples. Doug
las Wood is employed as the manager
of the ranch.
Both Mr.. Curtis and Mrs. Fetters
are genuinely pleased with Grants
Pass and surroundings. Their spe-
cial mission here at this time is to
make final decision as to whether
they will give up their home in Oma-
ha to make their residence here. They
will spend some days in sight see
ing Both the visitors Saturday
stated that they were pleased with
their investment, both as to the
price they paid and as to the quaIlty
of the soil and stated that they hoped
that the land shark who inflated val
ues and misrepresent the returns in
fruit culture would not find a foot
hold in this vicinity, as it does great
injury to many localities thus afflict-
ed
Mr.. Curtis and Mrs. Fetters could
not say too many good things for
their treatment and welcome at the
beautiful new Steward. Manager
Steward stated Saturday afternoon
that in about ten days he will have
all the details Of furnishing the build
ing completed and will then hold a
reception with refreshments and
music, with all Grants Pass invited
to enjoy it.

Auto Freight Trucks.

Freight could be hauled by the
means of auto trucks that carry as
much as eight tons. These trucks
could easily take load to Crescent
City in ten hours, returning the same
night if necessary, making the cost
of transporting heavy freight far
lower than the present rate from the
city of Portland.
When the orchards that have been
planted in the last few years in the
Rogue River valley begin to bear,
such a highway would facilitate the
handling of our crops. Fruit could
be hauled to the ocean in one day
and there loaded on refrigerator ships
that would take it to the Atlantic sea-
board in practically as good condi-
