THORN HOLLOW EXCURSION
IS NOW Being PROPOSED
TRIP WOULD GIVE CITIZENS 4
CHANCE TO INSPECT BEFORE
VOTING BONDS.

AS a result Of a desire on the
part of many citizens to see with
their own eyes what has been
done at Thorn Hollow and along
the gravity pipe line before vot-
ing on the $4,000 additional
bond issue. an excursion train
may be run to Thorn Hollow a
few days before election. The
suggestion has been made and is
meeting with hearty approval
from many people.
Members of the water commits
sion when asked what they
thought of the plan this afternoon
declared they would Welcome
such move. "We believe it
would be an argument for the
completion of the work." said
one. "for the magnitude of the
work and the quality of the
workmanship have surprised
nearly everyone who has gone
up"
The excursion has been sug
gested by prominent business
men and they believe that If
special train were to be run on
Sunday, April 26. that large
crowd would avail themselves of
the opportunity both to inspect
personally the gravity system and
to enjow a little outing at the
same time.

Dear Miss Doom

Dear Miss Doom:
Kindly advise me how to clean
and curl white ostrich feathers.
Thanking you. MRS. D. j. w.
am told that the following
method of cleaning feathers is very
satisfactory:
Pour boiling water on some hard
white soap cut in small pieces, and
to this add a little pearl ash. AS
soon as the soap is dissolved and
the mixture fs cool enough for the
hand to bear put the feathers into
it and draw them through the hand
until the dirt is squeezed out of
them. Next pass them through a
clean lather with a little blue IN It,
and afterwards rinse in cold water
with blue TO give them a good color.
Shake off the water and dry them
by shaking near the fire. Curl each
fue separately, when perfectly dry,
with q blunt knife or ivory paper
folder, or hold the feather for an
instant over glowing Goals.
Gasoline is often used for clean
ing feathers. Immerse them In a
bowl of the fluid let soak for some
time, then rub between the fingers
until all of the dirt is out. Rinse
in clean gasoline and hang in the
air to dry. Do not use gasoline in
q warm room or near q fire, as Il
Is highly inflammable.

All the lowered and figured crepes
and voiles play prominent part in
the summer wardrobe, but especially
for street wear, some Of us are more
inclined to plain, heavier fabrics, such
as ratlne, eponge, the heavier crepes,
duvetyn. etc. These heavier materi-
ais are well suited to the overblouse
effects, as they may be worn very
comfortably even In the midst Of
summer, If accompanied by a sheer
underbodice of net, null or lace.
The costume shown in NO. S343-8344
is developed In tan eponage; the
underblouse is Of figured net and the
girdle is of black satin. A most at
tractive and modsh note IS struck
in this design by the collar. which is
decidedly japanese in effect, and
flares away from the neck consider
ably. The skirt Is a one piece model
with two circular tunics laid In broad
+. plaits In the front.
This costume may be copied in size
36, with ia yards Of 42-inch material
for the blouse (834S) and 3A yards of
the same width for the skirt (S344).
These heavy cottons average 40 inches
in width and range in price from 75
cents a yard and up.
A very youthful design Is shown

An Effective Design for Use on Serving Table
BY MARGARET LAWRENCE

Nothing mars OF improves the as
pect of room so quickly as does the
condition of the covers used on the
tables, sideboard and bureau. They
should always be kept fresh to main
tain the neat tidy appearance.
Fine white round thread linen is
appropriate for making a serving
table-cover like the one illustrated

border is from transfer pattern

This border Is one and one-half inches
wide, and may be developed in heaV-

Fine white mercerized cotton should
be used in developing this design
for both the lowered border and the

The scallops are from pattern
