JAPANESE SASH Is
QUAINT ACCESSORY
Adds Many Points to the Evening
Frock.

Wear a japanese sash. or obi, with
your simple little evening frock II you
happen 10 be slender and wiIlowy and
Girlsh. It is the quaintest accessory
imaginable. and you may fashion It for
yourself n a very short time
First, you catch your hare. That is
TO say, you buy three yards Of thirty
inch wide silk OF as expensive a sort as
you can AFFORD. and YOU stay both edges
with baby ribbon Of a matching shade
That will prevent the silk length from
sagging at either side while you are
making a band by plating in one end.
drawing Il about your waist in soft
deep folds. and, having measured the
exact length required, plated 1t across
al that end
Divide the Length.
After that-without cutting the silk
you divide the remainder OF the length
into three even strips and make them
into as many long loops. Two OF these
loops must extend oppos!tely from each
other. running from the common knot
and from beneath that knot must fall
the third loop.
When the sash has been adjusted to
the hgure the two loops horizontally
crossing the center OF the back and the
single long loop falling over the hips will
form silk butterfly, and that is what
the oh! is supposed TO represent.
The japanese sash would best be Of
silk or satin. having considerable dress
inG. as even when stayed with the baby
ribbon the softer silks are likely TO
crumple into wrinkles. and 1t is practi-
cally impossible to line such fabrics with
erinoline so that they will bow grace
fully.
Sometimes Embroidered.
Some u the girls who make these obis
embro.der the outer side Of the loops
in a heavy Oriental design. but this in
wolves a great deal Of labor other girls
the ones who consider embroidering a
bore-have resorted to the scheme OF
cutting the floral designs from a piece
OF handsome brOcade and applying them
to the outer side OF the loops, and this
work II neatly done Is quite effective as
is the other sort OF decoration.

For Delicate Lace

Instead Of gum arabic which is gen.

frozen. How is it frozen? BY TAX
ing the cold from the ice and salt?
No, it could not do that. Cold is
negative; it is the absence of heat.
Temperature seek to equalize, but by
the distribution Of heat, not of cold.
So what must happen is that the
freezing mixture takes the heat from
the cream or material inside the
cylinder in order to melt the ice
that the salt may dissolve in the
water. If the heat can more readily
be taken up from the outside atmoS-
phere than from the material in the
can, of course, that is what will
will happen"

"A responsible body of citizens Of

request that | call a meeting of gov

for the purpose of consolidating and
either condemning OF approving the
plan of the Southern States COrpor-

Why Salt and Ice
Can Freeze Cream

Why salt makes ice colder some
times and warmer at Others, is thus
explained in the current issue of the
Housefurnishing Review:
Freezing ice cream is done by
means of a freezing mixture, ice and
salt in certain proportions, Any wo-
man knows that salt of itself is not
cold, and it seems strange that they
should not more often question why
we put it with ice to produce cold, OF
a lower temperature. A thermom-
eter put in bowl of ice.will register
80 or 80, but mix salt with it and it
may go down to zero. Yet we put
salt on ice on the sidewalk to melt
it where there is all unsafe, slippery
place.
we put this mixture Of salt and
ice in pail in which is revolving
cylinder holding the mixture to be

Games at School

Atlanta, July 3-When the bill
by Mr.. Gastley of Habersham, pro-
hibiting the playing of baseball and
football at the agricultural and in
dustrial schools of the state came
in the house today for final action
not a voice was raised in its behalf
The measure did not even provoke
debate and a motion to postpone in
definitely, which means its DEATH
was carried by practically unani-
nous viva voice vote.
The house passed the bill by Mr..
Christopher of Hall, providing that
justices of the peace and constables
Shall be elected at the same time;
also the bill by Mr.. Burwell of Han
cock. to require that all county adj
vertising shall be published at the
county seat.
Several bills of minor consequence
were killed, and one or two local bills
went through.

Would Put Bar On
Deteriorated Cereals

Atlanta, July 2.-The state
Board of Health to-day in speeial
session, passed a resolution urging
Governor Brown to send a special
message to the Legislature urging
the enactment of laws which will
prevent the importation of deteri-
GRATED corn and other cereals int
Georgia. Il is stated that bad
corn is the cause of pellagra, and
it is known that it will kill animals.
The board, however, did not go
into the pelIagra feature, but bas-
ed it's request upon the ground of
health generally.
The board also gave its endorse
ment to the pending bill by Repr,
sentative Ellis of Tiff to provide :
system of sanitation for the entire
state. This measure provides for
a health officer and the enforce
ment of health laws in each coun-
tY in the state, upon recommends

WORMS WIPE OUT
CANTALOPE CROP

Americas, Ga, July 3.-The de-
struction of practically the entire
cantalope crop was reported today
by local growers who declare that
within an incredibly short time
worms have devoured the entire
crop, even eating the small melons
no larger than hickory nuts. Elton
Parker, the largest grower here, who
had fifty acres from which he ex-
pected to market twenty car
loads of cantalopes. asserts that
he will not gather twenty crates, so
thoroughly have the worms devas-
tated his fields. Other growers here
about report similar conditions.
