Atlanta, Ga, Sept 2e-on a day off in
his political activities, Col. Roosevelt
went to-day to Roosevelt. Ca. thriving
town forty miles north Of Atlanta, to
see the old home of his mother, Mrs
Matte Bulloch. The quaint old home
stead. OF the typical style of Southern
mansions\ in the ante-bellum days, is
now occupied by Bart Wing, close
friend Of the colonel. The former Presi-
dent rode out to Roosevelt in an auto
mobile. and found the townspeople wait
ing to see him. As he passed along the
streets they sedately clapped their hands
and waved handkerchiefs at him. Roose-
welt saw the room where his mother was
born. going through the old homestead
from cellar to garret. Roosevelt had
expected to attend devotional services
at the old Episcopal church where his
mother worshiped. but on driving there
found 1t closed.
The sexton was found. and explained
that they did not use the church now.

HOW TO FIX OVER THE
NECK OF AN OLD DRESS

One way of fixing up the tailored
blouse whose neckband and front closing
is worn and frayed. is to wear with 1t
collar with jabot ends. For quite plain
waist make a Dutch collar of colored
pique finished with white or of white or
tan lines finished with a color, and then
attach to each end a jabot of plated net
edged with valenciennes. By joining the
inner edges of these jabots, the entire
front of the blouse will be nicely COW

suspend narrow tabs trimmed with small
black satin buttons and falling over
single jabot of shadow lace. Especially
smart with a rose of Dutch blue tall

with a double jabot of ecru-tinted shadow
lace marking its front.

A SIMPLE STITCH FOR
USE ON MANY FROCKs

Feather stitching is generally classed
among fancy stitches. but now that a
handsome gown is hardly considered fin
ished without some hand work the home
sewer will be glad to understand how
to make these two stitches, which are
the basis Of all the more elaborate work.
They are used to outline hens. tucks.
seams, or any other edge for which
they make a suitable finish. For tub
materials p1ercerized cotton or linen floss
Is employed.
Feather stitching in its simplest form
Is known also as brier stitch. To make
the stitch the needle is inserted on the
wrong side and about one inch If the
thread left without drawing II through.
This end is turned over and caught.

Good Soil in This Section.

Eastern North Carolina has a great
variety of soil. of which a good type
may be foun1 in this section for almost
any kind OF farming. The following are
successfully cultivated In this section:
Cotton, tobacco wheat. corn, oats, po-
tatoes, and forage crops.
No branch OF agriculture has devel-
oped SO strikingly in the past twenty
years as has the fruit industry. The
following fruits are generally grown In
this section: Apples, peaches, pears.
plums. ounces, cherries. grapes. dew
berries. Strawberries. blackberries, rasp-
berries. and blueberries.
No section of the Union offers a
broader or more complete field. from a
horticultural standpoint. than Eastern
North Carolina. The Coastal Plain,
with its level. sandy loan, easy OF cuI-
tivation. retentive of moisture. and
abounding In decomposed vegetable mat
ter, Is admirably adapted to the produc-
Ton OF early vegetables for the North
ern markets. The following are among
the truck crops OF Eastern North Caro-
INA: Irish potatoes. sweet potatoes.
cabbage. lettuce, onions. watermelons.
canteloupes. cucumbers. English peas,
tomatoes, string beans. caulIfower. lima
beans. beets. celery, asparagus. egg
plant, kale. and spinach.
Live stock can be raised to as good
advantage here as in any other State
In the Union. This section abounds In
natural grasses. and cattle make their
entire living for the whole year on
these ranges. Along the banks of the
streams the pastures stay green
throughout the year. and with care and
attention this industry can be develop
ed to wonderful degree. There is a
breed of horses known as Ranker
Ponies. which run wild in the extreme
eastern section along the coast. and ma

TO light driving, and numerous fiocks of
sheep. cattle, and hogs are also raised

Cold hands can't hold them. you know,
Breath that is stilled cannot gather
The odors that sweet from them blow
Death, with pace beyond dreaming,
Its children of earth doth endow;
Life is the time we can help them.
So give them the flowers now!

Now is the time to be smoothing
The frowns and the burrows and fears.

What to hushed heart is deep vow?
Naught can avail after parting;
So give them the flowers now!

MEDIUM SIZEDHATS
FOR SMALL WOMEN
Mistake for Short Folk to Wear
Big Hats.

Dame Fashion seems to have designed
many of this coming winters hats es-
pecially for the small and short woman.
This type of woman in years past has
always had much trouble in getting be-
coming shapes of hats. In most cases
these were either too small or 100 large
so large, in fact, that the small face
and tiny features of a short woman
seemed all but lost in the huge sized
chapeau that she was obliged to select.
unless she preferred one of the very
small shapes which gave her a decidedly
old look.
Many people are under the impression
that small hat is the best choice for
a short or small woman. This Is really
mistake. A small hat does not help
matters along as much as might be sup
posed.
The medium sized hat is the correct
one for the short woman-that hat
which has much OF the charm of a pic
ture hat without its great size. So this
years millinery ought to be a source
Of delight to every woman who is short.
Very many of the latest designs,
whether in velvet, satin. silk. beaver, or
felt, come in attractive shapes Of a me.

ance of greater height when worn on
the head of a short or small woman. as
the shape and height Of the hat is thus
brought into more prominence than II
the whole design were fashioned in one
tone effect.
High trimmings are always becoming
to the short woman, and this year the
newest hats show either decidedly low
or very high trimmings.
Another point to be remembered by
the short woman when selecting a hat
is to be sure to try it on standing up be-
fore a long mirror as well as sitting
down before a short one. The neglect
of many women to do this is the cause
of much disappointment in a new hat
when it is tried on at home before a
long glass.

PLAITS ARE TO BE VERY
FASHIONABLE THIS FALL

The new plated skirts, while showing
increased measurement. still come within
the two-and-one-half-yar limit. A va
riety of plaits is shown, the accordion
and machine pleated styles being used in
many of the smartest models. while the
shallow side plaits and fatty pressed box
plaits are other styles coming in for as
large a share of favor.
The machine plaits are so shallow and
fatty pressed that they do not fly to any
extent and for this reason they require
no staying underneath. With the side
and box plaits 1t is necessary to have
tapes fastened to the plaits at intervals,
so that the straight line will be re-
tanned.
