of vegetable parchment, is thoroughly

that it excludes heat from the outside
and retains the cold air beneath Just
place the blanket loosely over expos
ed side Of ice, top or front, tucking the
edges in. 1t will keep the outside
warm air from coming in contact with

not decrease refrigeration The blan-

Out OF the multitude of candidates
three good men have been chosen for
legislative positions. Col. O'Nein, the
nominee for state senator is a lawyer
and has had experience as law.mak-
er He is sure to rank among the
leaders In the upper branch OF the
Legislature, and his colleagues in the
house will be Bert Jackson and l.. n.

qualified TO render effective service.
Necessarily good men went down in
defeat. II was reasonably clear from
the start that such would be the case,
but winners and losers are all good
Democrats and will be found fighting
together for the success Of the entire
