GETTING GROUNDS
READY FOR FAIR
FINAL PREPARATIONS BEING
MADE FOR BIG EXHIBIT
NEXT WEEK.
LIVE STOCK EXHIBIT
TO BE GREATEST EVER
Secretary w. M. Clark Estimates Num-
Der Of Animals Will Be Is Per Cent
Larger Than Any Previous Year
Entries For Harness Races Close
Wednesday Night.

Everything at the fair grounds,
next week, will be in readiness for the
reception of exhibits by Monday, the
opening day The last preparatory
work to get the grounds ready is now
being done, and from indications all
that will be needed next week to make
the fair the largest and most success
full ever held will be good weather.
From the standpoint of exhibits the
number of entries already received in
dicates that in this respect the fair
will outclass all the previous exhibit
tons.
Live Stock Makes Gain.
Secretary w NJ. Clark estimated this
morning that from entries of live stock
already received that this class of ex-
hibits would be fully % per cent larg-
er in number than the last fair. AL
ready 244 swine pens have been en-
gagged. Counting two and one-half
swine as the average number of each
pen, this means 60 animals. The total
will probably run to 700. The fair as
ISOLATION will try to handle all the
swine exhibited, but it has ceased to
solicit exhibits in this class as its ca
pacity is not far from being filled. The
tents where most of the swine will be
shown, and the pens. will all be up
Friday.
Fifty Per Cent More Horses.
The exhibit of horses Of all kinds
will be fully so per cent larger than
this department has ever been before.
This is the estimate of Secretary w.
NJ Clark, based on the entries. 1t is
not expected that the cattle exhibit
will be any larger, but the same exhib-
itors of >leep who showed last year
are coming again, so this department
will be of about the same size. 1t is
not expected that there will be as
many fowls shown in the poultry ex-
hibit next week as a year ago. as the
carload lot exhibitor who was here
with his birds last September will not
be here this year. Local exhibitors,
however. will probably have larger en-
tries than ever before. owing to the
fact that the poultry association mem
bers are all interested In the success
of the exhibit
Many Artists Enter Work.
Not much will be known regarding
the nun Der of exhibits for the other
departments until Monday. However.
more artists, who have entered work
in the professional class. have done so
already than at any previous fair. This
indicates that the art exhibit will be
the best ever Entries Of all kinds
close Monday. when the exhibits will
be placed and the places Of exhibits
made ready for the crowds which will
begin to come Tuesday.

MOURNING

Mourning may be worn for six
months, or year. for a brother or
sister. In one case, a person goes
Into gray and lavender, etc. at the
end of six months, and In the other,
at the end or the year. One never
goes from black to bright colors.
Three rows OF ribbon at the bottom
OF net veil is the kind suitable. and
1t Is worn during the mourning period.
White null collars and cuffs are daep
mourning. and SO proper at any time.
They should not be worn Turing the
funeral.
Plain gold 1ewelry is proper to
wear at any time after the funeral,
unless woman wears crepe. In such
a case only black jewelry is possible
Gold Is not worn until crepe,is given
up. Pearls are worn In deep mourn
ing.
Hemstitched white lawn collar and
cum bands may bo worn In the deep
est mourning. II heavy mourning
has been put on, only black Jewelry
Is good form, but II only black, with
out crepe, Is used, plain gold jewelry
is all right unless many pieces,are put
on at time. The point Is, a person

tion when wearing mourning, but a

pins may be brought pAdsr th1 head

BY LuCILE DAuDET.

As the little frivollties are OF such
q luxurious nature. II seems more rea-
sonabe to make them out of old ma
terials, unless they are to form part
Of n brides trousseau. In this event
there are unnumbered grades OF veil,
ing and chiffon that, while cheap,
are quite good enough for the pur-
pose, and instead OF the grander trim
mings ribbon or satin bands may deck
edges. The marabou borderings,
especially in brown, are smart, and II
one Is clever at making the wreaths
Of tiny satin flowers so much used
these would strike the highest note
of elegance. With made over things,
If the slip underneath IS in q pat

bling OF the coatee shonld be in a
plain chiffon or yelling. The con-
trast I'm color here, the outside one
tint and the inside another, is smart
feature not to be ignored, for the
blend Of the two tints is an impor-
tant feature OF the coatee. Then with
making over old textures II gives a
chance for much economy, as the un-
der part may be. washed and ironed
and still look elegant when covered
Any allover lace net, in cream and
white, will make an effective lining
for n chiffon or yelling coatee. but un-
less a silk Is of the most soft and
clinging kind It could not be used. as

The pretty empire frocks worn win
ter before last are just the things
for the undergarment, and the new
look may be given by making the
skirt edge round instead of trained,
Tor the majority OF the smart house
skirts are to be short. The yelling,
chiffon or net of the coatee may be
IN any color, mauve over pink going
with a white frock, gray over king s
blue-or the reverse scheme-going
with a gray or blue dress, and so on.
In form the dinner coatee is a spe-
cieS OF short sleeved kimona, with the
neck V-shaped in front, the lower
fronts rounded and the back longer,
coming perhaps to the bend of the
knees. number OF the thinner ones
are gathered at the back into a hobble

instances they may be shirred at the

Pessimists, misanthropists, growl-

ers. whose complaints arise from the
iaundiced view they take of the
world, should make up this recipe:
Take full quantity OF good health
and a perfect complement Of content
OF mind, and shake well together
This compound cannot fail to produce
happiness.
1t will cure the blues and will
even cure sickness OF the body
Even the latter ingredlents-eon-
tent OF mind-has alone often been
kpown to work miracles for the al
leyiation OF the self-innlcted Ills OF
mankind.
A contented mind is continual
feaBt-a feast OF love and sunshine,
10 which sorrow. envy, ill-wlu and
their sinister relations are never bid
den as guests; where the door is
slammed In the face OF despair, and
where joy and peace and good Will do
All sit around the festive board,
where hope presides at the head.

FOR THE
GRADUATE

The correct gowning OF the fair
graduate is discussed under the head
Of fashions, but word about correct
dress for boys of the class Is not out
\ or place here. A neat sack suit or
dark blue or black coat and fancy
or white vest, with striped trousers,
may be worn when the exercises are
held in the morning or afternoon,
any time. in fact, before p. m, but
for all functions which occur after
nightfall the young man should be
provided with evening clothes. l say
this In spirit of family fairness. So
often the girl graduate Is we'll sup

cry, while Just about anything is
considered good enough for the boy
who is to plunge from the schoolroom
into business.
The boy deserves better treatment
If. he has attained his growth an
levening suit, or at least Tuxedo coat
with matching black trousers, Is a
good Investment. With this he wears
black vest and tie, which he must be
taught to tie for himself, not a ready
made bow. black pumps and hosiery
and white gloves. For the daytime
fuhctions see that he has white 5linen.
a neat, light silk pun or four-in-hand
tie, gray gloves and well-pollshed
shoes. 10 n
As thisds day of large high school
| classes and comparatively small op-
era houses or auditorlums, the num-
ber of tickets allowed each grad
uate is limited. Therefore the re-
cipient Of a card should consider her
self honored and, IL she cannot pos
sibly attend the exercises or social
| functions, return the card to its send
er with an explanation, SO that the
invitation can be used by some other
eager friend or relative.
Gifts for graduates should be sent
to the home or the auditorium where
the exercises are held on the day of
the commencement exercises proper.
Generally valuable gifts are sent to
the house, flowers and congratula-
tory kilograms to the school or au-
ditorium.
Members OF the class or their
friends intending to entertain during
commencement week should secure a
schedule OF social events. Otherwise
Invitations may clash and one hostess
or another be disappointed.
| The young man or woman who in
vites relatives and friends to share
commencement-week pleasures has a
perfect right to expect one courtesy
in exchange, and that is good taste
in dressing The mother aunt oI
family friend invited on such an occa.
sion should don her best and give the
lass or laddie cause for pride.
