the debate.

Convenient ironing eoard.

One of the difficulties of pressing out
ones belongings in a boarding house
bedroom may be obviated if the top
tray of the trunk is converted into a
temporary ironing board Only a tiny
shirt board may be carried conven-
iently in the trunk, and it is impossible
to press out linen shirt or a white
frock on this little board, which an
swers very we'll for neckwear and
ribbons. If the tray of the trunk is
deep it may be stood on edge. one
long pad of canton flannel provided
with tapes, which may be tied securely
around the trunk tray. giving a smooth,
padded surface to work upon. The
woman who possesses an electric iron
may snap her fingers at the independ-
ent hotel laundress, for many a bit OF
neckwear, handkerchiefs and even
blouses may be freshened in her own
room.

Early on Easter morning.

Just as l was bordering in my mind.
as my good coloTed auntie would say,
how I would amuse the children in
planning for Easter, Polly, my unfail-
ing one, dropped in and said: Let's
have an old-fashioned Easter like we
did when we were young"
But, Polly" | walled, there was no
egg trust then, eggs weren't so cents
q dozen, and we had real hens and a
real barn and we had mothers piece
bag and everything that children
haven't now"
After this wall from my usually
cheerful self, Polly gave me this out
line. which I pass on: Ask just the
neighborhood children, say six or
! eight, and save enough perfectly fresh
| eggs TO allow two for each guest. Set
| the time on the Saturday before East
er, from three to five, and request
! each child. boy as we'll as girl, to
bring an apron.
Hide the eggs in nests hidden care
fully behind the furniture, and warn
the little hunters to be most cautious
in handling the eggs. for they are to
take them home for their Easter
! breakfast. 1t will be we'll to provide
small handled baskets for each one.
Tie a bow OF yellow ribbon on those
for the boys ana white for the girls
They will make acceptable favors
After the eggs are found tie on the
aprons and go into the kitchen. where
squares of bright figured calico may
be sewed tightly around some OF the
eggs and dropped into kettle of boil
ing water for a few minutes.
These eggs will come. out beautiful

giving up the sacred treasures.
When we used to go to GRANDPA
theirs the week before Easter the rule
was that each child had for keeps all
the eggs found during the time between
Wednesday and Saturday, time being
up at noon on Saturday. We each
carried out our own decorative
scheme, the most beautiful Tin our
eyes, being those ornamented with
transfer pictures, or, to be accurate,
decalcomania work. And a small
child just informed me that they have
just such pictures now, so Polly is 60

COUNCIL SESSION
SHORT MONDAY

The session of the city council Mon
day night was short. At the close OF
the deliberations of the city officials
no small amount of misunderstanding
prevailed, when delegations from the
Heights announced that a site had
been found for the proposed home for
the Heights Volunteer Department.
This was the first news to the council
that the city contemplated the pur-
chase Of such lot. The matter was
turned over to the Fire and Water
committee for an unraveling.
Councilman G. II. Sproat reported
for the Street committee that its
members had met with J. F. Batche-
der and that he offered to dedicate
right of way and street west of Sew
enth street along the railway and to
the proposed incineratOr site, If the
city would grade the same with no
expense to him. The report recon-
mended that MIR. Batchelder's PROPOSE
tion be accepted
Councilman Ed. S. Mayes declared
that he would favor the adoption of
such a report, if the city were to get
the incinerator site. Otherwise he
thought the abutting property owners
should pay for the Improvement.
j. II. Fredricy addressed the meeting
aud stated that the street was badly
needed. Mr.. Sproat also thought that
this portion of the city should have
better street facilities. He said that
the property holders here would be
glad to contribute their portion toward
the improvement of streets. The re-
port was adopted.
