Those Special Gifts.
A number of persons have been won
dering if there is any discrimination in
the preservation of gifts at the Midwin-
ter. This is not the case, as the person
or persons giving out the presents can
not see the individual offering the cou-
pom. There is a board ffont to the booth.
Only the hands can be seen. Count is
kept of the number of coupons received,
and when a certain figure is reached
the hands of the lucky person are
grabbed and that person is asked to
give his or her name and address,
A big wedding cake made by the
Swan bakery was given away Tuesday
night as one of the gifts. Harriet
Cherry, 702 West Sixth avenue, was the
recipient. Other prize winners: Mrs.

FOR SMALL HOSPITALS
Howe Bill Provides for Better Nurse
Training Facilities.

Senator j. w. Howe of Abilene has
written bill for the relief Of the forty
or fifty small hospitals in Kansas
which conduct training schools but
are handicapped by the present rigid
laws regulating admissions of gradu-
ate nurses in obtaining licenses.
The Howe bill would strike out the
section Of the present law which pro-
vides that an applicant for a nurses
license must show evidence of train
ing in hospital having fifteen or
more beds. There are not less than
forty hospitals in Kansas which train
nurses, but are handicapped by the
present law, says Howe.

Easter comes SO early this year and
the winter has been so late that many
women are delaying their spring sewing
until after the holiday week. This makes
n great rush when the first stray hot
spell arrives. to say nothing of the con-
fiict with the usual spring cleaning or
moving which is scheduled for any date
after April Is, and any woman who has
tried TO combine house cleaning with a
seamstress knows the result.
1t is much more satisfactory to have
what sewing must be done at home fin
ished during the comparatively quiet
Lenten season. The styles brought out
in January and February for the South
ern trade will hold good for summer
fashions up North, and il is always
possible to fill up later on in May what
has not been completed In March.
There are numbers of smart little
summer silks In the shops this season.
and the woman Of moderate means who
cannot afford many frocks cannot do
better than to invest in one.
Not only are they charming and ap-
propriate for church and afternoon wear
in the spring and early summer, but
they are invaluable for cooler days when
away in the summer. and il there is any,
