MADE A PRETTY TRIMMING
Attractive Adornment for Hat That
Was Achieved by a Woman
of Taste.

A most attractive trimming worn
upon a hat of burnt straw by lady
whose good taste is undisputed was
fashioned in this manner:
A pattern for large petal was cut
and used as guide to fashion petals
from tan-colored corded silk.
Two thicknesses of silk were used
for each petal; these were stitched to-
gether by the machine, turned and
stitched again, a quarter inch> from
the extreme edge.
Twelve of these were sewn to a
small disk of buckram to form a flow
err
In the center of this was a chou of
narrow silk fringe of tan. The center
of the fringe was formed by a disk
of gold cord adorned by two small tas-
sells.
A cord of the silk finished by row
of fringe trimmed the base of the
crown.
This makes an altogether smart hat.
A yard of silk, five yards of fringe and
two yards of gold cord are required.

The Parisienne adores a dash of red
In between-season time when current
fashions have become wearisome and
new ones have not yet arrived. Just
now the red touch is added in the
form of a red silk vest in the cutaway
street suit Of blue serge or whipcord,
and the echoing red note-for the
Parisienne skiIlfully manages her col
or touches-is added with drop ear
rings Of the rich red Japanese coral
that is a1uch darker and more vivid
than the pink of the coral in ordinary
use. Curiously enough red parasols
are not used to produce the modish
dash Of color, the parasol Of change
able taffeta matching the costume, or
of white taffeta striped with black be-
ing considered more chic than one OF
plain color.

Two Races Compared in Mathematid

Nv HE relative mathematical abilities
4 Of boys and girls and of the white
race as compared with the black are
among the subjects taken up by the
United States bureau of education.
''It seems to be the general opinion
that the average boy shows more abil-
fly In mathematics than the average
girl, but also that he does not work so
faithfully" said the bureau. IN a
mixed class this greater ability of the
boy and the greater faithfulness Of
the girl react most advantageously
on each other.
Another fact that is noted Is this:
In elementary algebra the girl does as
good work as the boy; in geometry
not nearly SO good. In advanced al
zebra and trigonometry, the boy shows
an ability which is far ahead of the
girl. Yet, we are free to confess that
his greater natural ability is often
outclassed by the steady, patient en-
deavor of the girl. Perhaps it would
be safer to say that the girl does not
show as great an ability as the boy,
even though she may have 1t.

Of boys and girls to choose elective

MUST HAVE A BoUD0IR CAP
That Really Can Not Be Done
Without.

One of the details which no summer
bride could think of emitting from her
trousseau nowadays is the captivating
boudoir cap, all the more desirable be-
cause 1t is meant for the delectation
of one particular person. Such a cap
may be made as its wearer wills. She
has only to fix on any period or ma
tionality that she pleases and to modi-
fly the cap of the epoch to her own
pretty features.
Mob caps are little out of date, but
some girls may prefer a dainty frilled
mob with flowers and ribbons to one
Of the newer models, which are rather
like cottage bonnets, the hood part
made of spotted muslin, the accordion
plated or goffered frill and curtain
being held in place by a piping
through the middle and edged with
Valenciennes.
Neither gofferings nor plaitings,
however, are facile to redress, and so
we would commend rather bonnet of
point d'esprit with lace frill and cur
tain, a plated band of green or blue
satin across the front and a little
group Of pink satin roses at each ear.

ELECTRICITY FOR FARM USE
Great Variety Of Devices Which Outfit
OF Motors Would Drive Shown at
Recent Land Show.

At a recent land show, held in New
York city, an electric manufacturing
company showed, with the co-opera-
tion of manufacturers of farming ma
chinery, just what can be done with
electricity on the farm. The great
variety of devices which the outfit OF
motors would drive may be seen from
the following list:
The farms water supply was fur
nished by an automatic pump.
A refrigerating machine, milk cool.
er, cream separator, automatic churn
and butter worker, bottle washer and
ice cream freezer were installed with
separate motors in the diaries.
An electric truck provided for the
transportation.
A large threshing machine, with
motor drive, illustrated what could be
accomplished by the application Of
motors for outdoor machinery.
Corn shelters and feed choppers
equipped with individual motors
showed how the smaller machines may
be operated.
Types of laundry machinery driven
by individual motors.
An electrically driven milking ma
chine.
A silo with an accompanying mo-
tor-driven silo filler was exhibited.
A sheep shearer, electrically driven
through flexible shaft. This device
could also be used for grooming
horses or cattle.
Ventilating fans, household equip
ment cooking devices and the sup
planting of the old oil-dripping Ian
tern by electric lamps or an electric
torch completed this unique exhibit.
In practically every place where
muscular energy has hitherto been
expended on the farm, electricity Is
taking its place. The use of cleo
tricity is such constant source OF
economy that complete equipment
soon pays for itself.

VKY WASHINGTON. - Raising bamboo
w for the market is new industry
that the department of agriculture
has succeeded in launching. The re-.
port of the fourishing condition of
the bamboo plantation has come from
Florida to David Fairchild, chief of
the bureau of foreign plant introduc-
tion The establishment of the crop
is the result. of more than four years
hard work. The department also has
found way of shipping the bamboo
SO that the young plants will grow,
and this has been the hardest part of
the problem.
Raising bamboo commercially has
been aourishing industry iii Japan
for years. 1t was felt for long time
that it was business that ought to
do well here, because it furnishes
quick growing timber that is suscep-
tible of a number of special uses.
There is as much difference between

ROUT THUGS BY ELECTRICITY
Nothing Has Done More to Lessen
Crime and Depravity in New York
Than Lighting of Streets.

A glowing tribute to electricity as
"the best policeman" and "the sworn
foe of crooks" appeared, editorially, in
the New York Evening World, as fol-
lows:
Ghosts have fled before the cleo
trio light, according to a physician
lecturer. Ghosts have disappeared
just in proportion as our means of
lighting have increased" said the doc
tor, and went on to point out that un-
til 1926 people used mainly candles,
which. so far from lighting up, make
shadows and dark corners all the
blacker. Moreover, in the old days Of
draughty corridors and creaking stair
cases people lay in bed In the dark
listening to noises and imagining spir-
its. Now we turn on the electric light
and that is the end of them.
1--WE owe much to the electric light.
1t has cleared up the slums of our cit
ies. 1t has gone into the fearsome
byways and alleys and flooded them
with safety and purity. 1t has routed
thugs, providers and many other pow
ers of darkness. Perhaps nothing has
ever done more to lessen crime and de-
pravity than the street lighting, made
possible by the wide use of electricity
in cities.
"The arc light is the best policeman
on earth. 1t is the sworn foe of crooks.
If 1t is clearing out the spooks as well,
the more credit to it"

The black toilet is likely to be a
favorite for summer. It will be re-
lieved with ecru, white, straw color
and biscuit. Each of the latter are
tints with some similarity, but they
are distinct notes of color. White
and black lace will be worn in COM
bination, and the new summer models
are already appearing in large mum
bers. Gowns of black Ninon silk en-
broidery in black-slightly veined or
worked with tinsel threads-are
among the latest ideas for summer.
They are beautiful in all black, the
touch of color being obtained by pip
ing the embroideries with bright tur-
quoise, Parma mauve, or orchid pink.
Red is to be popular as a trimming,
as it will be the chief coloring Of frock
and hats. Red hats and swathed waist
belts, collars and cuffs, and even en-
tire costumes are shown in a delight
ful shade of light red.
