Of yarn is embroidered on the side
crow and brim, and the brim-edge is
bound with a strip of woven angora.
An exquisite hat at the left Of the
group is made of silk laid over a
familiar sailor shape. 1t is a brocade
with flower motifs in silver and gold
threads. AS in the big velvet hat, a
concession to the demand of the sea-
son for simplicity in trimming is evil
denced in this band of black vet
ribbon about the crown. 1t is finished
with two loops and two hanging ends
at the back, with the velvet cleverly
shirred into ball ornaments to weight
the ends. This is a shape that is
worn by maid or matron, with the
management of the trimming adapting
it to the age of the wearer.
The same thing is true of the turban
at the right. 1t has a soft crown of
velvet and a coronet covered with a
band of novel embroidery, made of
silk and little sequins. For trimming,
a tall ear Of velvet springs from a
small circle of ostrich fibers, and is
mounted on the crown at the right side
toward the back of the shape.

It Is true that a hat of almost any
shape may be found among the newly
arrived fall millinery and worn with
entire confidence as to it's good style.
For hats are Of all sizes and shapes,
and the mode demands only that each
one be good to look at, not that 1t
shall be similar to others.
There are a few novelties in shapes
that have made themselves promi-
nent, like the Puritan, and adapta-
lions from 1.-THE Puritan sailor, for
instance. There are high-crowned
sailors, of any desired width Of brim,
and many wide-brimmed hats. But one
may choose a small, close-fitting tur.
ban, a tricorne or a quadrangular
shape, or depend upon irregular lines
and eccentricities Of brim for effect.
Three attractive and conservative
hats are pictured in the group above.
They demonstrate the diversity in
size and shape that n may choose
from. The picturesque hat at the top
is one of many wide brimmed hats. 1t
has a flexible brim, very becoming to
youthful wearers, and depends lor
novelty on it's trimming Of heavy
wooden yarns. A spray Of leaves made

FRUIT OF KNOWLEDGE.

A certain English gardener was the
father of numerous sons, so numerous,
in fact, that it became necessary to
call the roll at bedtime to see II all
were present. This method was also
followed at meal time, each being
served when he answered to his name.
One day when all were assembled the
usual proceeding commenced.
"'Orace!" called the father. ERE,
sir!" said Horace.
"'Arry!" Present." was the reply.
"'Enry!" Now, Henry was just
commencing Latin and he saw a good
chance to air his newly acquired
knowledge, SO on hearing his name he
called "Adsum!"
WELL" said the father, on whom
this learning was evidently lost,
stand back and Give 'em as amt q
chance."-National Monthly.

Ration for Dairy Cows.

The average grain ration for dairy
COWS should contain at least one
pound Of cottonseed meal, as feeding
this material results in a firmer fat
and harder butter. The greasy ap,
pearance in the butter is caused by
the softness of the fat globules and
the addition Of the %cottonseed meal
will remedy this matter.

WARREN EIGHTH GRADE 1O4:
T. r. F. EIGHTH GRADE O

In one Of the fastest games of the
season, the Warren eighth grade
football eleven defeated the Thief
River Falls eleven of the same grade,
by the large score of 104 to 0. The
Warren kids showed that they knew
football from A to z and that the
visiting eleven did not have the least
bit of show of even making one
touchdown. The plays made by the
Warren bunch were clever and too
deep for the Thief River boys to
fathom, thus accounting for the one
sided score, which was but a natural
result. The local boys had the ad-
vantage over their opponents in
weight to some extent, but in this
game weight did not matter much as
I it was clearly game of cleverness
"Billy" Dixon, Wickman and Carl
son landed the majority of the
touchdowns, while Anderson, Swan
by, Lodoen and Valley presented
such strong line that it prevented
the line plunges Of the visitors from
making any strong gains.

TO FARMERS AND
BUSINESS MEN

Thur the united efforts of farmers
and business men, there was held a
farmers week short course last win
ter and from all reports it was con-
sidered one Of the greatest educa-
tional affairs ever pulled off. It was
SO good that neighboring towns are
making great efforts to secure the
course and in order to secure it for
this vicinity we will have to do some
hustling. We need at least 200 names
on the petition that is sent to the
University and these must be secured
at once. Blank petitions will be
placed in the hands of the various
farmers clubs and the Commercial
club Of Warren. It behooves each
one of us to sign one Of these peti-
tions as this course is for every
member of the family.
The following officers were re-
elected: President, Fred Peterson;
Vice President, August Lundgren;
Secretary, M. L. Warner; Treasurer,

GASOLINE AND NAPHTHA;
HOW To USE THEM IN HOME.

"Gasoline ind naphtha can be made
less dangerous for household use if
the following rules are Observed 2
says Robert ". Hargadine, State Fire
MARSHALL:
l. Never keep gasoline or naphtha
in . glass bpttle or other breakable
container.
2. Never keep it near fire or in
a warm place.
8. Never rub any article in gaso-
line or naphtha, because these pro-
ducts are easily electrified. An ex-
ception to this rule may be made in
cleaning kid gloves stretched upon
the hands, providing the rubbing is
not done in the fluid, and is done in
the open air.
4. Never press or iron goods that
have been cleaned with gasoline or
naphtha until they are thoroughly
dried in the open air.
5. Never sprinkle gasoline or naph-
tha about the edges Of carpets or
rugs to kill moths.
6. Never keep a supply of gasoline
or naphtha in the cellar where the
vapor from a possible leak might ac-
cumulate, but if tits absolutely nee
essary to keep the product in the
house, place the container on a shelf
at least four feet from the ground.
The observance of these simple
rules will eliminate the hazards of
handling these extremely infammable
products in the household, and none
is expensive, onerous or impractical.

Lea Kleshna Was Splendid

The first number in this years
lecture and entertainment course was
given by Miss jeanette King at the
opera house on Wednesday evening.
1t is needless to say that Miss King
upheld her reputation as one Of AM
erica's foremost readers and reciters.
She held the audience spellbound by
her artistic rendition of Leah Klesh-
ma, a remarkable story of the regen-
GRAFTON of a criminal. Her pleasing,
well modulated voice, perfect articu-
lation and .faultless pronunciation Of
words, might we'll serve as a model
for those who aspire to elegance in
the use Of English. AS a feat Of
memory also her work was truly
wonderful. There was not a hitch or
lapse of a. single word in telling the
lengthy ssorY, the object of which
was not to samuse, but to make peo-
pie think, and to entertain more
charity toward those who are classed
as criminals. No human being is so
wholly bad, bat that some trace Of
good may be found in his or her
make up. Those who missed the
first number Of the course missed a
| great treat, It ought not to have
j been necessary s. when tickets were
sold as low as two dollars for adults
and only one dollar for students, for
the entire six numbers. We do not
see how students can afford to miss
these fine educational entertain
ments, which are in line with their
work and will complement the edu-
cation received in the schools. &, The
main, reason why the course was Sc
cured for Wa1ren, was that the
young people in the city may benefit
thereby. We, older people, may, TN
like Kleshna, be too far gone for ere
generation" The young people are
the hope of the future. No student
should miss the remaining numbers
of the course.
The next will be musical number
by the international Operatic Com
pany on Nov. 4th.

Ole i skratthult Was Very Funny

Ole Skratthult, or in other words,
Hjalmar Peterson, a young Swedish
comedian Of no mean ability, held the
boards at the Warren opera house on
Saturday evening. AS a teller Of
comical peasant dialect stories Ole is
illimitable, and he kept the audience
convulsed with laughter for two long
hours. AS singer Of comic songs,
also, he never fails to bring down the
house. His odd costume and ap-
pearance on the stage was a whole
circus in itself, When Ole comes
around again, Gin 1900 he can be
assured Of bigger audience, even,
than the one that greeted him on
Saturday night. Before Ole came on,
Edward Vernon, popular speaker,
delivered a lecture in English, en-
titled 1'The Coming War; that con-
tained much food for thought.

WARREN ELEVEN DROPS
A. ANOTHER TO STEPHEN
! .ss;ss:

The Stephen high School football
team came down Thursday afternoon
and defeated the Warren high school
eleven by a score of 73 to O. Even
though the result proved to be so
disastrous to the local squad, the
game in it self was interesting and
brought forth many new and clever
plays. The Warren team, however,
had the odds against them, on ac-
count of their light weight and their
inexperience on the gridiron. The
main drawback for the Warren team
was their inability to tackle and to
pick holes so as to make strong
gains. Stephen on the other hand
were strong in both these points of
the game and with their greater heft
could plow right thru the Warren
line, thus making long gains on their
line plunges and which also enabled
them to get the Warren boys when
tackling.
The Warren boys, however, are to
be congratulated on putting up the
plucky battle that they did against a
team as strong and experienced as
the Stephen ''huskies". Powell for
Warren proved to be the most con-
sistent player and made some very
neat gains on the heavy opponents,
Mattson and Johnson also played a
creditable game, while the rest of the
eleven played as good a game as
could be expected from raw mater
ial.
For Stephen the team as a whole
played as one and they executed
clever trick plays, that were unex-
pected on the part of the Warren
boys. The Sinclair boys and Yetter
starred for the visitors.
This game ends the football season
for the high school and even tho the
Warren boys have not made any
great showing, they have benefited
by their experience, the results Of
which will be clearly shown in the
eleven for next year.
