LETTER FROM MIR. MCFARLAND.
Suggestions for Civic Improvements.


The president of the Woman.s Civic
League has received the following
letter from Mr.. ]. Horace Mcfarland.
president of the American Civic As
ISOLATION, who recently leetured at
the Opera House, this city:
April II, 1913
Dear Mrs. Stewart:
l want to thank you most heartily
for the great courtesy shown on the
occasion Of my visit to Westminster
and to express the hope that I may
have said some things which will
help you and your organization IN the
improvement which that town de-
serves.
IL may venture to make one or two
concrete suggestions, 1t would be that.
first, while completing the clean
up movement already started. you
endeavor to inculcate the Idea that Il
ought never be necessary to have an
other cleanup day or week. That Is.
a town ought always to be clean.
Then l would suggest that several
receptacles for loose papers, fruit
skins, and the like be obtained by your
club and put at prominent places, in
the interest OF cleanliness. and to
keep the streets free from litter. You
can obtain on application to the Office
of the District Commissioners in
Washington details of very excel
lent trash can, used In that city, It Is
not expensive.
| noticed on your streets that
great many telegraph poles. them
selves rather Objectionable, we're
decorated with tin signs. All these.
| think, are illegal, and can be remoV-
ed at once, under the common law
which prevails in all the states that
the streets belong to the people Of
the state and are merely held In trust
by the city for the people of the stata
ANY intrusion for private interest and
to private advantage on the streets con
stitutes a nuisance. If you would
have some active man simply tear off
all these signs, You would find thai
no one can legally object. and Il
would greatly improve the appear
ance of the streets.
II few children's gardens could
be started, that would help greatly In
the work of improving Westminster
Ii you would write to Mrs. John Il.
Kelley, president of the Civic Club Of
Harrisburg, you could get details aa
TO how the work has been done under
the hands of the Civic Club of Harris
burg.
Should you think II wise to consider
the getting Of plan for the eventual
Improvement Of Westminster. along
the lines we have talked of and to
ward the end OF making the town a
popular place for suburban residential
uses, | would suggest that you write
TO one OF the several men named here
after, all OF whom are public spirited
and capable city planners.
Warren II. Manning. fremont Build

Sam Verran will be at the head of the Eagles-Red Mems big parade this evening as Grand Marshall. Sheriff Wheeler will be alongside the grand marshall as the chieI guest of the occasion. Assisting the grand mar shall will be Jay Wilmoth and Red Cannon, both mounted
 Every indication is that the parade will be the biggest ever attempted by fraternal organizations in the city and that it will be the prelude 10 the greatest picnic crowd that has ever turned out for a day from the city this crowd being the same that will go to Lewis Springs tomorrow morn ing on the special train leaving the Southwestern depot with fourteen cars at 7.45.

That of tonight will make a record that it will be no easy matter to over come, while the crowd tomorrow, T is now evident. is going to be by Ia. the greatest ever sent out of the city
 In this connection. it is well to state that realizing the crush that Is sure to be ahead for tickets at the depot tomorrow morning. the Southwestern railroad has arranged to begin the sale of -cnic train tickets this after noon at 2 o'clock at the depot and will continue the sale until the de parture of the 9:25 train tonight.

These tickets, at Sl the round trip each, will be good going and com ing on all trains tomorrow.
 As previously announced, the train and the picnic grounds are to be am ply policed and attendants at the pic nic may be assured tuat they will not be disturbed by disorders Of any kind during the. day. either on the grounds or going or coming.

 The parade tonight, which really opens the picnic today, will start from in front of K. P, Hall in o. K. street It will go from the building to Brew cry Gulch, turning down that thor oughfare. through its most active sec, ton to the city plaza.

Woman and Her Varied Interests
The Loose Coat.

The loose or sport coat is in great
demand this season and is so practi-
cal and useful as well as attractive
that 1t has assured popularity. The
Illustration shows it at its best. In
one view, the fronts are cutaway and
there is a belt and, in the other, the
fronts are straight and the belt is
omitted, and the two treatments are
equally good.
Nothing could be better for motor
Ing, for travelling and for general util-
ity wear, and there are great many
appropriate materials. Wool serge
and cheviGt are excellent. but the
model is good for the duster as we'll
as the coat Of warmth. and pongee,
mohair and linen all can be made in
this way
There are just front and back por-
tlons and there are darts from the
shoulder edges of the fronts that
achieve all necessary fitting. The
sleeves are the regulation two-piece
sort with rolled over cuffs.
For the medium size, the coat will
require yards OF material u, 1-2
yards 36 or yards A inches wide,
with 5-S yard 27 inches wide for the
DOLLAR and cuffs.

LACK OF HOUSEWORK
CAUSES WOMEN TO BE-
COME ANENIC AND SAD

DENVER, Aug. Els the female
sex in America becoming a race Of
flat-chested and anaemic women, due
to the tendencies away from house
work and toward idleness?
DIR. Olive Lynn Of Colorado Springs.
one of the visiting women attending
the convention Of osteopaths now be-
ing held here. thinks so. She backs
up her assertion with statistics to
prove that women today possess weak
er spines and are more frequently
sufferers from spinal legions and lung
trouble than formerly.
"If the woman of today wants to
be beautiful, its back to the old days
of the freezing cold bedroom, the
chilly sheets and the warming pam"
she says. Its back to the broom and
the rolling pin and the bread board,
II she wants firm, round. white arms
to the wash tub and the mop and the
task of making beds, If she wants
small waist and hips; to the clothes
line and the cookstove for full chest
and gracefully rounded shoulders; to
washing windows and wedding the
garden for grace and freedom OF
movement
81 have recently noticed the large
proportion of flat-chested women. II
| is the custom to laud the women of
J the present day as ideal; but the SIM
| lie facts are that the women Of the
present generation are more fiat
| chested and bloodless than our moth
ers and grandmothers were. This Is
because they do less housework."
But the figure of women has chang
ed tremendously in the last decade ol
two. and that for the better, was
found to be the prevailing tone Of 9
s. mposium cleaned from the physi'
clans attending the osteopathi: con-
vention. 1t was thought that tennis
golf rowing, swimming, walking, rid
ing. have entirely remodeled tne fem
mime figure and altered the mascu-
line ideal of what constitutes woman
" beauty. One doctor said:
81 firmly believe in corsets as ar
asset to the healthy woman. The cor
set of the present day leaves the waist
and bust free, and supports the abdo-
men. tending to greater erectness and
freedom Of carriage. We are getting
! back the Venus OF Milo proportions
the twenty-eight inch waist. The
figure Of twenty or thirty years ago
with the wasp waist and large hips
and dropping shoulders was an arti-
| ficial figure. Now we are getting
back to the natural lines of the
| body"
