Dear Advertising Manager:
Recalling your answer to a recent
correspondent, stating that the draw
tisements are being used because they
are new, rather than for any beauty Of
composition, line or conception they
may possess, / am moved to inquire
whether or not the phrase Between
Ourselves is being used for a similar
reason.
1.-THE expression Between ourseives'
is a new contribution to the art of
editing, and one that cannot be justified
even on the ground of common usage
because common usage can never Justify
bad grammar. The meaning you wish
not be better to use the correct gram
NAUTICAL form, namely Among Our
selves? Between Ourselves concerns
only two persons, and is therefor i'm
properly used in your advertisements.
Among ourselves will denote the vast
numbers who read and profit by your
advertisements, including myself.
(signed) IL. ]. Pa
My dear L. ]. p:
In the main you are right. The
words Between Ourselves as applied
to MORE than two persons are not pre-
cisely grammatical, but you do not get
our point.
The great Bamberger store is as one
family working together for a common
end hence Il is a UNIT--one. The
readers of Bamberger Acknowledgements
ticularly the readers of this little daily
column, are also a great family. essen
TALLY pro- Bamberger-a UNIT-one.
There are only two involved-the Bam-
berger unit and the Between Our
selves" unit. Do / make myself clear?
Editor.

Something like $4,000 women and
girls in Iowa will get special instruc.
ton in home making this winter
through the activities Of the extension
department Of Iowa state college.
So great is the demand for the
teaching OF home economics at short
courses, farmers Institutes and wom-
ems club meetings that the college
has put on two new instructors. Five
women devote their whole time to the
teaching OF cooking, sewing. home san
itation, dietetics, and similar subjects
In all sections of the state. This
year they will visit 70 to 100 different
towns and communities to hold short
courses. running from two days to a
week. In addition. most Of the farm
ers' Institutes OF the state have en-
gagged some of these teachers for one
or more sessions. The short courses
alone are likely to reach $4,000 wom-
en- and girls and at the institutes not
less than 10000 more will learn some
thing about scientific home making.
The extension corps of home econo-
mic instructors now includes Miss
