citizenship and her right to vote?
Yes. This is question frequently
asked lately, probably with the next
election in mind, and it is well to
have the answer ready. 1t appears
that citizenship follows the husband
NOT the wife-whether we like it or
not In other words, it appears that
the status of the husband and father
fixes the standing of the wife and
minor children. Whether this would
apply to minor step-children whose
father was an American citizen, this

The early bird catches the worm,
and there is this advantage in send

People who are SO careless as to
have birthday anniversary within

it in on their friends.
But there are friends who try to

There seems to be difference of
opinion regarding the value of sweet
clover. Iu conversation with relia-
BILE farmer from Holly, Colorado, and
who owns a number of good farms,
the News man was informed that the
grea talk being made about the feed
ing value of sweet clover is all mis-
take. He stated that stock would not
eat the plant unless starved to it, and
that where it grew in pasture,
sheep would not touch it, and sheep
are supposed to eat anything. How
ever, he also made the statement
that there was no doubt about its
great value as soil-builder. And the
seed is selling at a big price this year,
caused by the heavy demand The
plant has to be handled with great
care to enable the grower to save the
seed, as the seed is very easily shat
tered, and must be harvested at the
right time. 1t is necessary to reseed
every two years, as the plant does not
grow from year to year as alfalfa
does Ordinarily, enough seed is
shattered out to reseed the ground,
and the crop is almost perpetual
after being once seeded, as result

Tea Gowns Have Charm

Not so very long ago dsquieting

that the craze for motoring had prac-

themselves no time for choosing OF

women left who can appreciate the
charm Of quiet restfulness, and who
like to dress themselves suitably when
they nave an opportunity of enjoying
even brief lull In the round of pleas

to have survived these and other vicis-
STUDIES. At the present moment 1t may
certainly be. found in numberless at

many different ways that only the wo.

Each month the draping has been ac-
centuated. the putting over the hips is
more pronounced, and the lines of the
costume arc more broken up. Oniy six

are seeking for skirts that fairly seem
to spring out from the waist to tho

Even Poiret. the exponent OF straight
lines, has sent over taffeta frock

who Is SO engrossed In tho frivolous
doing OF society that she cannot find

stated that he had earned tho unquaIi-
