the site to be vacated. At least no
plans have been made at this time
pointing toward another building. The
old building has not been used since
the new high school structure was put
in use, the grammar grades having
been moved TO the building at the
corner of William st. and ColfaX av
The high school building Is on the
site of the old seminary, which in 1858
was purchased by the town board OF
trustees from the county ofncials. since
that time il has been used for various
purposes and Is the nucleus from
which grew South Bends present
modern school system. Many OF
South Bends citizens remember hav-
ing spent their school days in the
building which will now he utilized in
providing work for those suffering
from poverty in the city.
No official action in the trouble
which is ALLEGED to have occurred be
tween Prof F. L. Sims and high
school student was taken by the
school board at the meeting last night.
Although the subject was informally
discussed. the board did not take any
official course because of the fact that
none of the principals of the affair
were present.

TO USE ODD BITS OF LACE
Great Variety of Pretty and Useful
Things in Which Odd Pieces
Can Be Used.

There seems to be an endless variety
of uses to which fillet crochet can be
applied. A large square of this
crochet could be made into a very
charming boudoir cap. A square with
rose pattern would be very pretty,
although the extremely conventional
designs are equally good.
The square should be made with
fifty or sixty codon net, as it will be
more attractive if the mesh is not too
fine. A picot edging may be added to
the edge of the square, or it can mere
ly be finished with two rows of the
plain mesh.
When making this cap casing is
stitched around the inside of the
square, forming a circle by eliminat-
ing the corners. An elastic is run
through the casing; then the corners
are wired with fine millinery wire, SO
as to make them stand out. The front
Snd back corners are slightly rolled
ever the crown. The points of the
corners at each side are turned back.
The effect is very much the same as
Normandy cap; but. being made of
fillet crochet. 1t is very quaint and un.

sudden inroad of unexpected company
will cause her any Inconvenience.
Here are some of the many things
which will be useful, although each
housewife will find additions and
changes to make, suitable to her
needs.
First, have a few cans of good
soup. This. with some crisp crackers,
makes a fine beginning to any hur-
ried meal and may be prepared almost
as quickly as it takes to write it. One
may add milk or cream to extend the
amount of these soups and usually it
improves them.
On this shelf have few cans of
fish, such as funny or tuna, salmon
and crab or lobster; these may be
used in various ways as salads. hot
dishes or chowders if so desired Cut
let's, using can of salmon, adding
white sauce, rolling in crumbs and
frying in deep fat, will go further
than a can of salmon served plain
A box of Goldfish, jars of pickles,
canned corn beef and dried beef, oil
ives, canned fruit, nuts and dates are
other helpful furnishings to the shelf
Even lemon pie filling comes canned
now to use in an emergency. These
foods are expensive for everyday use,
but to have some of these things on
the shelf even if used but once year,
will prove worth the investment.
A few quickly prepared menus
should be at hand, so that in the hurry
one need only glance at them to
choose a good meal.

LAClNG FROM BOOTS TO HATS
New Bolero Jacket is Laced TO Es
the Figure Snusly--Gloves Also
Are Laced.

AS eagerly as the huttoned boot was
discarded to replace the laced one ia
the idea of lacing any two pieces Of
material that seem in any way to be-
long to each other being introduced
and adopted. A costume that has at
tracted much attention is one of navy
blue gaberdine, the bolero Jacket of
which was laced to fit the figure snug
ly. The rather large sleeves were
laced to fit the lower arm; the COL
lar, too, was laced to the chin.
With the new inside laciag of the
boot comes the hat, whose several DOR.
tions are joined with lacing. Gloves.
too, are laced on either the Inside or
the outside of the arm: in fact, to be-
quite up-to-the-minute one must have
two parts of the costume laced to-
gether.

TOO TALL OR TOO STOUT
Dressmakers' Art Is to Cover the De-
fects In Stature of Their
Patrons.

Most women, measured by an ideal
standard Of beauty, are too tall or too
thin, tee short or too stout: they do
not stand well; they walk badly; or
they have spoiled their compilations by
hook or by crook-something is wrong.
The dressmaker's art is to cover these
defects so far as possible, to draw at
tention away from defects toward the
good points of the figure.
The ideally beautiful woman can wear
anything from Greek gown to a peas
ant costume, and look divine. But with
very few exceptions allowed for the
perfect woman, designs in dress must
be adapted before they can be adopt
ed to advantage. Fashion plates are
drawn upon beautifully tall and fair
women to show the proper proportions
to be observed in the designs them
selves, according to the mind OF the
designing artist
Some designs are hopelessly bad at
the beginning. Designs, however good
in themselves, are not meant to be
slavishly copied. A woman six feet
tall may wear dress skirt eight or
ten yards wide at the bottom. but the
dumpy little woman who is as broad
as she is long will be ridiculous fig-
ure in the same enormous sweep of
skirt-Belle Armstrong Whitney. In
Good Health.

What Color For Waists.

The most radical change in the waist
styles this season Is in the color. The
dressy waists are either dark, so as to
match the suit, or are in some high
color, thus contrasting with the suit
On the other hand, the semttailored
models continue to be mostly in white
and In fiesh-color. says the Dry Goods
Economist.

other than it's authorized purpose.
When making frosting use instead
of fresh water that which has been
colored by cooked beets. Mix this
with powdered sugar and you have a
wholesome pink frosting.
When cooking milk, to keep it from
burning, put few spoonfuls of water
in the dish and when boiling add the
milk.
Apples are one of the most whole
some of fruits and should be given
freely to children, especially in the
winter. Cranberries are said to stimu-
late the liver.
For the oyertired housewife most
restful attitude is to lie on the back
with the feet elevated on a couple of
pillows or cushions. Ten minutes in
this position will effect wonderful
rest.
A splendid idea to keep stockings
mated, especially in a large family is
to place good-sized patent fasteners on
the top hem Of the stockings. then
when the hose are taken off they are
snapped together, may be so washed.

NEAT BONBON BASKETS
NEW IDEA IN TABLE DECORATION
Is REAL NOVELTY.
Intended to Hold SaIted Almonds or
Confections-Expensive to Buy
But Not Difficult to Make
at Home.

One of the novelties in table decora-
tion this season Is the tiny gilt and
lace individual basket designed to
hold bonbons. salted almonds, or 9th
er dainty confections. They are the
prettiest things imaginable, and
though expensive to buy, should not
be difficult to make at home
One should make trial basket first.
Get ten-cent knot of gilt wire and
fashion into a basket, weaving the
wire In and out in very large mesh,
In any preferred shape. There is the
dainty little French basket, also the
square shape fashioned on the order
of the ordinary waste paper basket.
Both are popular and also quite easy
to follow. The lining is of yalenciennes
lace. The first step is to cut tiny
round of cardboard to fit the bottom
of the basket, square. round or oval,
as the case may be, and cover first
with silk in delicate color and then
with scrap of the valenciennes lace.
Next cut strip of lace edging little
wider than the depth of the basket
and long enough to go around it and
half as much again. Gather the
straight edge of the lace and sew to
the piece of covered cardboard. Put
in gathering of the lace. thus Great
ing little frill to stand up all around
the basket, trim the handles with baby
ribbon tied into bows to match the
color of the bOttOm and the basket is
complete.
For Christmas table the baskets
could be trimmed with red or holly
