Advance Fashions for Fall Wear
Fully Described by O1ivette


A very unusual suit is this,
with its bretelles extending
down to form the outer stripes
of the muff, which is fash
ioned of the same silky zibeline
- used for the suit.
The skirt is a simple circular
affair, with a slight upward
draping into a narrow, half
belt at the back.
The coat is cut single-breasted
and fastens down the center
front from throat to hem with
large crocheted buttons.
The collar is a Robespierre,
with tiny cords extending from
it's front corners and ending in
balls of the astrakhan or Per-
! sian which is used to trim the
bretelles and muff.
The feature of the suit is, of
course, the combination collar
and muff. This collar, starts
from a deep yoke-likea point
in the back, crosses the should
ers in six-inch bands, whose
inner edge is in turn banded
with the fur, and down the cen
\ ter of which is an applique
braiding in applied points.
A crossbar extends across the
chest, and joins the two sides
of this unique cloth "chain, |"
The muff is made in five pans
els the outer ones being thae
continuation of the shoulder
bands, the next repeating the
motive and pattern of the outer
band, with the. braiding and
fur slightly wider than that
used in the breteIles.
For the center panel of the
\ muff the zibeline is used.
The woman who likes novelty
in her costumes will find this
a most useful if unusual way OF
having her muff ever safely at
hand. OLVETTE.

COUNTY SUPERINTENDENT

Among. the successful candi.
dates last fall was Prof. R. E..
Smith of Hankinson, who was
elected county superintendent of
schools. He was entitled under
the law to take possession of the
Office on the first Monday in Janu-
ary. 49, ~ -.
The time arrived and Mr.. Smith
had made no move toward taking
the oath Of Office or of giving the
required bond. but instead came
mysterious rumors that negotia-
tons were in progress for the sale
of the office, and that for a con-
sideratiOn, Mr.. Smith would not
qualify.
Is this true. Mr.. Smith?
Did you try to sell the Office?
What were you to get?
Gould not the purchaser raise
the price?
Or, did the democratic pressure
prevent the sale?
You qualified about the middle
of the month of January and was
checked into Office.
You appointed Mr.. Hanson as
deputy. He gave up a position t.
accept it. You appointed two
other deputies. making one more
deputy than the Office ever had
before. All three of these depu-
ties drew salaries from the coun-
ty, and you, although you were

The Industrial Work in the Public
School Now Underway.

After long delav. due to the
failure of the manufacturing COM
pany to get the equipment out
promptly, all industrial classes in
the public school are now at work.
For this week we wish to speak
only OF the sewing and cooking de-
partments leaving the agriculture
and manual training for later con-
sideration. As was pointed out at
the beginning, it is the plan to make
these courses just as practical as
possible. We wish to give the work
under as nearly ordinary conditions
as possible and still get the maximum
results. To.this end eq uipment has
been provided<to handle at one time
a class of sixteen. each girl working
alone. The desks are double, made
in material and in manner that in.
sures years Of service and mini
mum Of Inconvenience. They are ar.
ranged in hollow square with the
teachers demonstration table in a
position commanding to the hest ad-
vantage the entire class. The desks
are roomy and have. as one of the
most valuable things about them,
heavy fibre-concrete tops, imperme-
able to weather or oil.
Each girl is provided with a gas
plate. gas for which is piped in from
outside the building. The gas used
is known as Blau- Gas and is a pro.
duct Of low explosive range and has
high heating power. It promises to
be very satisfactory. The dishes and
utinsels are Of heavy enameled ware
calculated to give satisfaction during

several years of wear.

No special equipment except tables
has as yet been purchased for sew
ing, the instructions now given be-
ing with the needle. Later. sewing
machines will be purchased and the
girls taught the use and care of
these in connection with the sew
ing.
There are two classes in cooking,
Of sixteen each, and two classes in
sewing, one Of twenty seven and one
Of fifteen. Parents and friends are
invited to visit the school and OBJ
serve for themselves what is being
done. There are classes in sewing
on Monday, Wednesday and Friday,
and in cooking on Monday, Tuesday,
Thursday and Friday.

teams Kept all girls ON their inettle

tieor very even most Of the time so
that each point added to the score Of
either team elected loud applause.
The first half ended 10 to 9 in favor
of Hurley and the second half 20 to
18.
Every girl on the local team de-
serves much credit for the manner
in which she played the game. Spec
ial mention might be made Of Capt.
Helen Webster for scoring five field
goals. Of Eta Bach for four free
throws scored successfully, and Mil
dred Thompson, the jumping center.
for the splendid way in which shs
