CONCERNING HOUSE DRESSES

Someone has said that a large por-
ton of a womanB time is spent in the
kitchen. so why not have Il beautiful?
Carrying this idea further. a woman
spends a large part OF her time In a
house dress, so why not have 1t at
tractive?
II takes NO more time to make
neat, pretty house dress Vith good
lines, than it does to sew up a shape
less one from some dark. uninterest-
ing color. Light colors do not soil
any quicker than dark ones and the
temptation to wear a soiled light dress
is not so great as il is to wear a soiied
dark one.
Gingham, percale. light colored cali
CO. ehambray and Manchester cambria
make inexpensive, satisfactory house
dresses, especially il the materials
are shrunk and the coiors set before
the dress is made.
In the selection of materials and
styles. tall. thin people should avoid
pronounced stripes and decided up
and-down lines. Likewise, short.
and plump people should not choose
large checks and pands of trimmings
that run around. as these diminish
the apparent height
A broad belt OF contrasting color is
undesirable for short. stout people.
A high waist line makes one appear
taller.
A very full skirt detracts from a per.
sons height.
For a house dress pattern with
set-in sleeves is more satisfactory
than one with kimono sleeves. Elbow
or three-Quarter length sleeves are
good for house wear.
A short skirt is practical for this
type Of dress as II does not hinder
progress and does not easily become
bedragged.- Beryl Dixon. Colorado

COURT WITHHOLDS
SENTENCE OF YOUNG MAN

In the district court here Friday
morning a young man. who had been
arraigned for grand larceny. plead
ed guilty to the accusation made
against him by the district attorney,
on account Of his youth and the
agreement of his guardian to stand
Donsor for his good behavior in the
meantime Judge Cavender announced
that he would withhold sentence un.
til the first day of the April term of
court. The young man, who is but
seventeen years OF age, was releas-
ed from custody on his own recogni-
zance with the understanding that he
would present himself in court at the
beginning of the April term.
The prosecuting witness in the case
was Mrs. Matte Bogardus Of Chand
Ter, from whom the defendant was
accused of stealing forty dollars at
the Peerless mills here last Saturday.
Mrs. Bogardus left purse containing
money in her carriage in the street
while she went into the mill to pur.
chase some supplies. When she re-
turned the purse was still lying on
the seat of the buggy where she had
left il. but its contents were gone.
The loss was reported at the sheriff's
office and an investigation made to
ascertain the identity of the thief
Suspicion pointed to the young man in
question as the guilty party and he
was arrested for the offense and lock-
ed up in the county Jail. He subse-
Quently confessed to the theft and re-
stored the money. which he had
secreted in his home. Ii appears that
he first hid the money under a pile
of rubbish ut the mill after taking it
from the purse. hut later took It home
where it was again hidden. He was
seen digging in the rubbish pile at
the mill and II was to that fact that
euspicion was aroused against him.

The High School Boom" parade
through Main street at IL O'Clock this

received unstinted praise and commen

walks to witness it. Col. t. D. Har-

to make II a success.
There were twelve or fifteen beauti-
fully decorated floats in the parade:
all of them advertising the High
School Boom" to be given this even
ing. Hundreds of people viewed the
parade and the impression it created
was distinctly favorable to the enter
prise that had inspired and created it.
The splendid character Of the parade
this morning was a forecast OF su-

Aigh school students and their friends

HEAVY DAMAGE CAUSED
BY FIRE AT RYE, COLO.

Pueblo. Dec. Fire swept. the bust
ness section of Rye. prosperous lit
tie village in the foothills of the
Grecnhorn mountains thirty miles
southwest of this city, at an early
hour yesterday morning. The loss is
estimated at about 100000 with in
surance amounting TO less than half
that sum.
Two persons were injured, Miss
Jeanne Waldraven. school teacher,
who was trapped in a second-story-
room of the blazing Mountain View
hotel. and Rowe Meredith. whose feet
were cut while he battled. ha1f-clad in
an effort to save the town.
The origin is supposed to have been
a cigarette stump. thrown upon the
floor of the Walker pool hall.
The destroyed buildings include:
Walkers pool hall, the Mountain
View hotel, the Walker Mercantile
company store. the II. T. Ashley liv-
cry stable. the Meredith store, N C.
Clemon's barber shop, along with
warehouses, stables. sheds, fences
and outbuildings.
An effort to send to Pueblo for a
motor fire engine were blocked as a
result OF the damage to the apparatus
of the telephone exchange by the heat
and it was only by the hardest kind
of work that the telephone building
Nas saved from destruction.
Barefooted, the residents OF the town
rushed to the rescue of their homes
and a bucket brigade Of unshod and
scantily clad men carried water from
the creek Several inches of snow
was on the ground at the time and
they suffered frightfullN from the
bitter cold.
The entire citizenship of the place,
composed of about one hundred people,
turned out to fight the fre. In order
to facilitate the work of the bucket
brigade an irrigation ditch was cut
above the town and the water turned
down the street, from which il could
be obtained more readily than from
the distant creek.

TO PREVENT AUTO FREEZING

II often happens that the automo-
bile owner is responsible for freezing
his engine by thinking, 1T won't get
cold enough tonight" and keeps 1t
up night after night until finally a
night comes when 1t does get cold
enough. and the result is his cylin-
ders are bursted. Freezing water is
not particular Just where it breaks a
cylinder. and frequently It is cracked
in q place very hard to weld. and is
thereafter one continual source Of
trouble.
A good habit to form is one that,
when you don't know, don't guess, but
drain.
1t is better to spend time. putting
in water than paying to have cylin-
der and radiator troubles repaired
A good anti-freezing solution is one
part alcohol. one part glycerine and
four parts water. This solution. will
not freeze at twenty degrees below
zero but Il will leak out and evapor-
ate. II you will take sample every
time you put in extra water. dilute
IL little more than that which is in
your engine end set 1t in cold place.
you can tell when to put in more alco-
hol. Glycerine will not evaporate, so
does not need replenishing so often
