Four Red Cellar Line Boats Required For Party

Five special trains loaded with
Shriners and their wives arrived
IN this city Sunday over the Mil
waukee road and were transferred
to Red Collar Line boats for a trip
down the ST. Joe river and across
Occur d'Alene lake. The first
train arrived here at about six
thirty and was filled with Shriners
from Des Moines and Davenport,
Iowa. The train pulled onto the
side track and laid here while the
passengers got breakfast and
during the interval a number of
the Shriners looked over the city.
The Red Collar Line had four
boats here to meet the Shriners
and take them for the river and
lake trip. These were the Bon
ME Doom, the Queen, the ColiaX
and the George Oakes. After
having breakfast the passengers
left the cars and walked down to
the Tenth street dock whore they
boarded the boats. There were
one hundred and twenty ON the
special and this number was add
ed TO by quite a number who came
in on the regular train which was
an hour and a half late that morn
ing. Those on the special and
regular train filed the Bonnie
Doom and the Queen and those two
boats started ON the down river
trip about eight o'clock.
The next to arrive was the Chi
cago special in two sections which
got in about ten o'clock. There
we're between four and five hum
dred in this party but they did moi

tinued the trip TO Spokane i'm tina

sengers of which were to take th'
lake "Trip, dfilNeu heIV 0h"l 'lJ "l

On their arrival at Occur d
Alene the Shriners who had take

trains waiting to carry them q
Spokane over the Inland road.
party of Occur d'Alene Shriner
came up on the boat and wer
here to meet the visitors on thei
arrival and to accompany them o
the lake trip
No effort was made to welcOm
the Shriners upon their arriv;
here and but very few were pres
ent to meet the Iowa train bt
there was a large crowd on han
when the Chicago trains arrive
who accompanied the visitors
the boats and waved them fare

MELTON BURNED IN
TAMP ER|NC Of CAR

CAMBRIDGE, Ca, Oct. ia series
of minor automobile accidents have
oeen the only marring feature of tho
Southwest Georgia fair Luckily, no
one has been fatally hurt, in spite of
the number of accidents during the
past four days.
Probably the most serious accident
CT all happened when c. S. Haddon, a
prominent cambridge merchant, ran
his big six cylinder Buick into a
ditch near Brinsin, eleven miles from
here Miss Lamar Coleman was bruis-
ed slightly. Mr.. and Mrs. Colemand

Mr.. Haddon drove it into cambridge
on its own power
A car from Tallahassee, Florida,
speeding along the good road from
cambridge to Donaldsonville, skidded
| and smashed into an embankment.
Two wheels were demolished and the
occupants badly shaken up.
Professor Cliff Lester, principal OF
the Donaldsonville High school, was
thrown from car last night and pain
fully hurt. Lester was riding in a cut
down roadster with several friends
when the driver swerved to avoid run

was thrown from his insecure seat

TRUE CHIC EFFECT
GAINED BY HOME HATS.

There are many women who take in
finite pleasure In trimming their own
hats. The proper placing of an orna.
ment, the deft twist of ribbon into a
peeky bow, the becoming pose of a
plume are sometimes best accomplish
ed by the one who is to wear tie hat.
I have known women of unlimited
means who prefer to buy an utrimmed
shape, select their own trimming and
use their own time and their own taste
in completing a becoming tat. The best
way to pose the trimming properly is
to, put the shape on the head and try
the trimming at various angles until
just the right one is found, then to
hold or pin the ornament ON until {
few stitches can be taken.
1t seems as If the stores were recog-
nizing the pleasures of the women who
trims her own hats, for there never
was such a variety Of ornaments. Fur,
ostrich, beads and tinsel combine in,
various ways. Velvet is used extens-
ively-one might almost say exclusi-
vely-for hats, as clipped beaver and
plush come in mainly for sports and
tailored hats. Black, of course, is al
ways favored, but all the lighte~
shades are now being worn with dark
suits. Old rose, dull and corbeau blue,
mustard and white are all favored.
