Sheet and pillow Case Shower.


A young. woman who belonged to a
sewing club composed of six members
announced her engagement, and the
other members planned this most
unique shower, to which they asked
the men; that is, each asked an escort.
These girls conceived the happy idea
which made this affair reality.
Each one made a pair OF sheets and
g pair of pillow cases, Then, arrayed
lin these ghostly garments, they pre-
scented themselves at the house of the
bride-elect. They all met at the house
next door and dressed The brides
mother had been taken into the secret
and looked out for the refreshments,
which the men had sent up. After the
surprise was over and the white cos
tunes taken off it was explained that
the sheets and pillow cases would next
be seen neatly Numbered and tied up
with sachets of lavender for the linee
chest.

SALEM TO BUILD JAIL.
Calaboose to be Built in Village to Take
Care Of Law Violators.

The common jail Of Kenosha county,
located on Market street, is to have
opposition as the, town board of the
town Of Salem has formally voted to
crest calaboose in the village of Sa-
lem. 1t was put up to the board
strong. John Mutz, who has been the
guardian of the peace of Salem for
years and a good guardian at that,
went before the board and informed
he members that he was through with
using his residence as detention hos
pital or calaboose and that if the
town of Salem did not build a Jail for
him he was going to resign. Rather
than lose the services of the one guar
dian of the peace the town promptly
voted to build the Jail and it will be
completed during the summer. It will
be OF great aid to towns in other parts
of the county as there has. long been
a great demand for some such a place
in the outlying towns Of the county.

VARIED ORNAMENTS FOR HATS
Woman Who Seeks Something New
Has But to Make the Round
of the Various Shops.

It is entirely due to the hat orna-
nent that the chapeau can be put in
The class of the irresistible. So varied
and clever are the little decorations
that they demand special descrip-
ton in this big fashion story.
One charming ring, through Which
loops of MORE RIBBON are run at the
side of a straw turban, is of circles Of
wooden beads in the Bulgarian col
ors.
On a hat by Jeanne Lanvin fat
rose Of two shades of yellow wool is
surrounded by a disk of brown and
green silk leaves, folded from picot
ribbon and tinted with watercolors.
A high semi-circle of pleated velvet
ribbon is made of three rows, held at
the lower edge by fat folded bow.
This ornament, in turn, holds in
place cluster Of soft cog feathers.
Peacock feathers form two rows
around an iridescent blue and green
jewel
A fantasia of pheasant's wings is
caught down on a brim by a butterfly
of silk with jewels and embroidered
coinspots
Very simple is a ring Of knotted
MARE ribbon in two colors, orange
and brown, surrounding yellow rose
made of swirled mousseline
Scarabs in turquoise and lava are
being used to form centers of feather
cabochons
The flight of little tailored bows
is still seen up the side of high
brims.
Ribbon pompons are wired and top
covered stems. These are made of
overlapped loops around each other.
Question marks, so prominent in
cog and other feather quilts, are being
duplicated in stiffened grasses and
ribbon-covered wires.
Picot ribbon, especially in the en-
broidered Bulgarian styles, will be
used for tailored bands around the
crowns.
Chintz and cretonne flowers are be-
ing cut out and laid in fiat borders
around wide brims of garden hats be-
fore the covering of yellow chiffon is
applied.
The butterfly Of lace, net and bead
ed gauze has been added to flower
trimmed hats.

TuIle Scarfs.

The wearing of scarfs with decol
lette gowns has become so general
that it is no wonder the woman who
has desire to be original has found
a device that is rather novel to re
place it. Long or short lengths OF
tulle knotted at the ends or ornament.
ed with tassels are found to be a sat
isfactory substitute, for even a thick
ness or two of tulle supplies a little
warmth. These strips Of tuIle are
becoming and touch Of color can be
given to a white or black costume by
means OF them. For instance, two
lengths of tulle tied together may
combine turquoise, blue and white or
black and green.

Small Print BAD for Children.

Small print leads the young scholar
to look too closely at his books He
is not yet familiar with the forms Of
the words, and his eyasight has not
yet reached its full acuteness. For
easy vision he must have retinal i'm
ages larger than those which satisfy
the trained reader. To obtain these
larger images be brings the book too
near to his eyes, or his eyes too hear
the book, and this is apt to be in
furious.

Coiffures are still following the fash
ions Of fifty years ago or of those even
further back. They are glossy, part
ed. dressed close to the head and are
neat looking. The ears are covered
in all of them and in almost every
one the hair is waved little or curled
about the face
The part is not always at the mid
die, but in the majority of cases it is.
A little, very short and light fringe
across the middle Of the forehead is
becoming to some faces. There is al
most no arrangement so pretty for a
low forehead as the middle part and
occasionally it is good on high fore
head.

Short Wrsps.

Short wraps Of silken stuff, made
very simply and having deep sling
drapery at the back in the effect of a
hood, are the fad on the Riviera. A
wrap of this sort worn by French
beauty is of cerise lansdowne, and
aside from the sling drapery, the lines
are very simple, great cords covered
with the cerise material outlining a
shoulder yoke and forming big orna-
ment where the fronts cross and
iasten.

The hair is arranged in coils at the
back of the head above the nape Of

HOT LINERS
OFF THE BAT

The Giants jumped upon Big Bill
James, the star Brave twirler, in the
fourth inning yesterday and hammer
ed out seven runs.
Dick Rudolph, who took up the
pitching duties after James was chas-
ed to the clubhouse, held the Giants
runless. Rudolph is an International
league graduate and for several years
had begged for a chance in the ma
jors.
Merkle, the Giants first sacker,
who was in a batting slump for more
than a week, seems to have recovered
his eye. He pounded out three time
ly swats yesterday.
Brief, the recruit first baseman of
the Browns, acting as. a pinch hitter
yesterday, doubled in the ninth inn
ing with the bases full and won. the
game from the Tigers.
The Phillles 'wrecking crew'-Ma-
gee, Cravath and Luderus-have won
more games this season with timely
hits than any other three men in the
league A large number of four base
safeties.
The Dodgers dropped their fifth
straight game yesterday and now are
nearly 200 points behind the leading
Phillies and only a few points away
from the third place Giants and fourth
place Cardinals.
The Phillies took the game from
the Dodgers in the eleventh inning
yesterday before a huge crowd, by
scoring four runs on a combination of
errors and hits. Each team used
three pitchers
The Red Sox defeated the Yankees
in an exciting 3 to l game.
The Senators and Athletics broke
even in a double header yesterday,
the Quakertown players winning the
first game, to 0 and. the Senators
grabbing the second game in easy
fashion, 9 to 2.
The first game was a pitching battle
in which Houck allowed only three
hits while BoehIing and Groome per-
mitted six hits sandwiched with er-
rors, gave the Athletics their runs.
In the second game Walter Johnson
the speed king of the Senators, had
the Athletics at his mercy.
The Athletics by losing one and
winning one yesterday, dropped IL
points and are now only u points
ahead of the Maps who did not play.
Baron Knetzer, the twirler, who was
such tower of strength to the Dodg-
ers last season, may join the team
soon and holster IN IFS rather wohhIy

Awakening of Farmers a Result of
Demand for Larger Mix Production

Indications are pointing toward a
rapid awakening among Indiana farm
ers. in response to the increasing de-
mand for a larger milk production.
Throughout the state they are show
ing quickened interest il subjects
pertaining TO the dairy industry.
The truth of these statements is
clearly demonstrated by the attitude
the farmers are taking toward the diff
ferent lines of dairy educational work
conducted by Purdue University
Dairying is becoming decidedly more
popular with the regular students as
we'll as those attending the one week
and eight weeks short courses More
interest is also shown in dairying. at
the short courses conducted through
out the state, the Farmers Institutes,
and special dairy meetings.
The attendance and interest at the
Indiana State Dairy Associa lion meet
ings; this year, far exceeded that Of
the evidence that an increasing num-
Der of Indiana farmers have reached
the point where they are willing to
take action on methods of improving
their present conditions, as our lead
ing dairy country has done.
Denmark, as the result of direct
necessity, in 1884, established her first
Cow Testing Association. The aver
age production of her COWS at that
time was 112 pounds butterfat per
COW per year. In 1908 it had increas-
ed to pa pounds or exactly twice that
amount If Denmark, the leading
dairy country of the world. can double
the production of her COWS by the use
of the Cow Testing Association, which
provides for the systematic use of the
Babcock test and scales, is it not pos
sible for Indiana dairymen 20 make
the fundamental principles of the Cow
Testing Association serve them, as eff
fectively, in doubling the production
of their cows?
The first Cow Testing association
in the United States was organized in
Michigan in 1905. Since that time
there has been over one hundred of

these associations organized among
the leading dairy states, almost with
out exception, the most progressive OF
these states have the greatest number
or Cow Testing associations
The Northwestern Indiana Cow
Testing Association was organized by
the Purdue dairy extension movement,
at Crown Point, Ind, March 20, and is
the first Cow Testing association to
be organized in this state. The Leroy
Cow Testing association, a sister as
ISOLATION of the former. was organized
few days later. II is hoped that
these two associations will be a great
stimulus to Indiana dairymen to sup
port the Cow Testing movement which
will be a powerful factor in revolu-
tioniZing the dairy industry through
out the state.
There are over $50 cows in the two
associations mentioned. Each associa-
ton is self-supporting and has e man
employed who is known as the off.
cial tester. The tester spends a day
with each member of the association
cnce a month. While on the farm. he
weighs the amount of feed that each
COW receives. weighs and tests the
amount of milk each COW produces. and
from this data, computes financial
statement which shows the relative
merit Of each individual in the herd.
The tester also assists the farmer in
