AS WINNERS IN TODAY'S CAME
TO SETTLE MAINE CHAMPIONS

Colby will win by comfortable margin,
and will be the champion of Maine.
The Bowdoin team after its miserable
showing in the two previous champion
ship contests is likely to be CALLED into
making a stubborn resistance against
Maine but in this game the only bet
seems to be on the size of the score.

the jars but do not fasten. Put the
jars in the washboiler in which has
been placed a false bottom to keep
them from the direct heat of the fire.
Allow enough space between the
jars to prevent their knocking togeth-
er when the water boils. Cold water
is now poured in the boiler until it
reaches around the can to the depth
of two or three inches, the lid is put
on the boiler and the water heated
until it boils. Boil one hour then seal
the cans.
This boiling kills all the living
germs but the spores remain unin'
jured. Repeat the process the second
day and the spores that have become
full grown plants will be killed. The
third day heating will finish any that
have developed since and the house
keeper may be sure that her vege-
tables will keep.

Grafton but tint it better than having
cans upon cans spoil after all the la.

show her beefy, red silk-stockinged

was plainly embarrassed.
They were coming nearer. Surely
he would stop when he reached their
chairs! But obstinately determined,
he would have again circled the room
had not Mrs. Dalton broken away with
an apologize laugh.
Its the orchestra-they're all out
of time! It's so hard to dance to some
of this music"
Warren caught at the excuse.
Thought something was wrong!
They're way off! No wonder I couldn't
get the swing of it. Should think
they'd have a decent orchestra at a
dance like this"
As soon as Mrs. Dalton got her
breath she whirled off again with her
husband. Warren sank into the chair
beside Helen. There was an awkward
silence. She purposely refrained
from any comments on his dancing.
well, this is dead slow. I'm going
down stairs and have a game of pool
with the marker. You'll be all right
here-plenty to see"
With Warren beside her, she had
enjoyed looking on, but, now left alone
Helen felt very conspicuous. 1t re-
called her "wall-flower" days as a
young girl. Not having the dash and
assurance to make her popular she had
sat out many dances, trying to hide
her embarrassment and aching heart
with a poorly feigned air of uncon-
Germ.
And now as several men glanced ap-
praisingly at her, Helen grew more
self-conscious. If only she could es-
cape to the lounging-room! She shrank
from crossing the floor alone. but by
keeping close to the wall and lodging
many couples, she finally made her
way out
Feeling much less conspicuous out
here, Helen sank on one of the red
velvet couches, from which she still
had a view of the ballroom.
A half-hour later Warren appeared
liesurely smoking cigar.

Married Life

The long white and gilt ballroom
was ablaze with lights. An orchestra
in an overhanging balcony twanked
a syncopated one-step, while the dane
ers swayed and gyrated over the shin
ing wax floor.
Skirting the outer edge of the room
Warren steered Helen to a line of gilt
chairs against the wall

But considering the vigorous meas

as they whirled by.

knowledge of Dress
Material Aids Buyers

In olden times when practically all
the industries were carried on in the
home, women knew the grade of
goods they were able to turn out and
we're satisfied with only the best be-
cause it was their own handiwork
Then factories came to relieve them
of the necessity of spinning and weav-
ing and they gladly shook the bur-
den from their shoulders.
However, they can not shake off
the responsibility of recognizing in
ferior quality and demanding the
worth of their money. To be safe
guarded against deception, general
knowledge of the various materials
is essential. Following is list of the
best common cotton fabrics, and the
used to which they are usually put.
Batiste-A sheer lustrous cloth in
white and dainty colors. Used for
waists and thin dresses because of it's
daintiness.
Calico-Cotton cloth with the de-
sign printed on one side only. Used
for inexpensive dresses, aprons and
wrappers, because of it's low cost, it's
durability, and the ease with which it
is laundered.
Cambria for Lining.
Cambric-Plain weave with smooth
finish on one side. Used for Innings
mainly, and the finer qualities for
underwear.
Canton Flannel-Heavy cloth with
twilled surface on one side and soft

Warren. Good looking crowd, too
Eyes, the Adelphian Society usually
turns out pretty fair crowd. We
thought you'd enjoy it,"
"Oh, there's the hesitation" Mrs.
Dalton's white satin slipper tapped
eagerly as the orchestra swung into
another tune.

"You don't have to entertain u.s."

Nonsense! OF course you'll dance

why, Warren, we're not going to
dance at ALL" protested Helen, as the
Daltons swirled off, you know We
can't do any of these new steps,"
"Why can't we? It's all Tommy-rot

Watch this-it's only an exaggerated
waltz. Anybody who can dance at all

Fearing that Warren might under
take to prove his assertion, Helen did
not dispute it. She had not expected
to dance, and had worn a long gown

She realized, too, that although this
was her Paris gown, as it was neither
flounced nor draped around the hips
it looked decidedly out of date

matter with that woman's hair"
Helen leaned forward. "Oh, that's
one of those colored wigs. Pale blue
isn't it, to match her dress? How sal
low it makes herr"
"She's a sight" grimly

OF NO CONCERN.

An item regarding the Kuhn mat

day last week that has given some
concern to the settlers and others
interested In the new problems that
are presenting themselves for adjust

tion has no particular Significance re-
garding the negotiations now pend

but who wishes to see the Kuhns re-
leased from the receivership, and 1t
is only by the transfer of these pro-

receivers hands.
The adjustment of matters is pro-

PROGRESSIVE PRINCIPLES.

Principles for which the progress
sive party in Idaho is to stand were
enumerated by Guy H. Martin, the
acknowledged leader of the organi-
zation in this state, at meeting of
the party at the G. A. R. FridaS
evening" While touching somewhat
on national issues, Mr.. Martin con-
fined himself mostly to a discussion
of conditions in the state.
He declared for retrenchment in
the conduct of the state government
and told how the progressives expect
to accomplish it. Some of the things
he advocated are: A law that will fix
limitation on the levies that can be
made by cities and counties; compell-
ing the legislature to prepare and
publish a budget showing the money
it expects to collect and how the
money is to be expended; establish
ment of a state purchasing agent or
board who shall purchase all public
supplies on basis of published COM
petitive bids; adjustment of the SEN
ate and house and formation of one
compact legislative body; abolish
ment of many state offices; the short
ballot; the recall to effect all state
and county officers, including the
judiciary; enactment of a law to per
nit the formation of stumpage dis
tricts.
BY the exercising of the economics
he suggested, Mr.. Martin declared
that a saving of at least 100000
year can be ffeected in the expense
of the state.
The progressive leader vigorousl
attacked the land boards of the las
| three administrations for their Care
I act policies and declared that if tn
progressives get into power they wi
!. declare forfeit the contracts on tn
o defunct projects and either get ne
o it as a state work. He characterize
Il the situation as a disgrace to III
