LIGHT COLORED SUITS
FORSTREETW WEAR

Red is possibly the only brilliant
color that is chosen for street suits.
The purple that is worn is too dull
and smoky to attract attention. and
there is no return to the bright shades
of blue. This leaves red as the one
daring color in the gamut of street
clothes.
But there are many suits in mega
tive light tones that are only shades
of white and cream. They are very
attractive looking and loom up as nov
elites against the dark background of
other women's clothes. Most of them
are trimmed with dark fur, which
gives character and takes away from
what might be insipidity.
There is no doubt that a white or
light coat suit In winter needs some
splashing contrast to bring It to the
eye. Fur supplies this need in an ad-
nsirable manner. There is no special
reason why any one should want to
get away from this accessory this win
ter. because II is exceedingly artistic
and relieves women from the necessity
OF wearing fur pieces around theil
necks or shoulders.

A Safety High Chair.

Get box seven inches wide, four inches
deep. and as long as the front edge of
the chair. Take of one OF the long
sides. Attach 1t to the chair by screwing
two strips of wood underneath. II a per-
son is handy with tools. a spring can be
placed underneath on each side of the
chair and fastened to the attachment.
With a downward pressure the attach
ment can be lowered and an older child
can use the chair: by uplifting 1t. it is
again ready for the baby. There is nc
danger of the baby slipping out and is a
great relief TO anxious and nervous moth
ers. The spring is the same as used on
some tables and can be bought at the
hardware store for Is cents each.

One Of the striking features OF Doris
Keane's triumphant portrayal OF the
italian grand opera prima donna, Mime.
Cavallini. in Edward Sheldon's great play,
Romance" In which she will be seen at
the BeIasco this week. is the gorgeousness
of her stage gowns. Harper's Bazaar and
La Mode both declared them to be the
supreme creations Of the season before
the footlights.
Her first-act gown is made OF blue tulle.
the skirt of which Is a succession OF
fiounces cut into flower petals. The edge
of each fiounce in this dress is embroid-
cred in brilliants- The bodice Is also thus
embroidered and Is extremely decollete.
The skirt is festooned with tiny pink and
silver roses, and is looped with silver
cause ribbon. This makes radiant en-
trance dress. accompanied as II Is with
a quaint bouquet Of white violets and
pink camelias and a handsomely painted
Italian fan. 1t all fits the charming and

overlooked-the painting Of colored
lantern slides. OF course, one must be
more or less OF an artist, and the
greater the talent and ability pos
sessed, the better the opportunity, but
the demand for skilled slide painters
is almost unlimited. The prices paid
vary according to the quality of the
work and the ability of the artist, and
range from 10 cents to any price one
wants to pay-under some circum-
stances as high as SO.
One of the best-known and best
paid color artists in the country today
is Miss Charlotte NJ. Pinkerton, who
colors all of the slides used by E. NJ.
Newman, the noted traveller and lee
turer, who will give the second Of his
traveloEues at the Columbia Theater
this evening.
In addition to being an artist OF ex.
ceptional ability, Miss Pinkerton, al
though young in years, has Travelled ovel
the entire world, and thus has nrst-
hand knowledge Of conditions and cos
tunes, which Is invaluable In determin
ing what colors to use. OF course Mr.
Newman supplies that Information fol

Industries for the Boys
(From Oregon n Manufactursrl

The State Department of Public In
struction is going to have boys indus
trial clubs all over the state.
They are going 10 learn to raise
things and make things that are usefu
and valuable and learn to become pro.
ducers.
4 That is grand idea but what are
the boys going to do for employment
in industries when they grow up?
Industries must be supplied to con.
sumo the raw materials they produce,
and wealth is doubled by factories.
Labor unions deny the right to boys
to learn trades and limit and restrict
the number who may enter any trade.
There are practically no boys learn
ing trades in thsss days, except a few
who job at all kinds of industry.
We are producing no carpenters,
bricklayers. stonecutters, plumbers,
metal workers or other common trades,
Among the hundreds of unemployed
and others standing idle on the streets
are very few who know q trade.
The Idle Amy at Salem recently was
composed of yoang men not one In ten
having learned a trade.
Under the present system of labor
monopoly there is no chance for a boy
to become real industrisl worker.
Industries are practically closed to
our boys.
