bright tan patches. The plain color
is easier to make and white flannel

you have the time and patience the
rabbit will look more natural if the
ears are lined with pink. The eyes
are always an amber color.

Tea Table Talks
BY May De Witt Talmage
IDEALIsM VS.. REALISM.


America is no place for Greeks.
because they cannot adjust their
Idealism to its Realism" said a
Greek woman who has been study
ing her countrymen here and in
Canada, and she sounds again the
warning against commercialism.
The American IS a realist-too
busy-too commercial. to set ideals
ahead OF commercialism. You look
with contempt on the foreigner. He
may be brilliant, accomplished, edu-
Gated, full of new ideas that would
interest, perhaps help you. But
you scorn him because he is queer.
There is a germ of decentralization
abroad throughout your country"
she assures one seriously. Too
much business, too much hurry-too
much money-no pure ideals-it
all diseases you, rots you"
Pretty strong talking that, and
yet there is more than a grain Of
truth in it. The spirit Of material
ism is strong in America. and many
OF us rebel against the lust for
power, wealth. and magnitude. for
it is desenerating and makes arro-
CANT, mercenary, selfish men and
women.
Money is our standard Of success.
We are apt to say: THAT man is a
failure, he is poor" He may have
devoted his time TO research, liter
OF & I, =.
able 10 turn it all into money he is
not counted a success.
read the other day that the two
roots Of evils which impede TIE de-
velopment of a true artistic con-
seriousness here in America is ignor-
ance of aesthetics and commercial
ism. We measure the quality Of
mans work in art as in all else by
the degree of his financial success.
This might all be rectified if we
would stop long enough in our mad
materialistic rush to realize the
truth there is in all this that is being
said of us, to realize that money is
not the only thing that counts. 1t
covers a multitude Of sins. We all
want some of il. 1t covers our pride
and our outward troubles but what
difference does it make in the great
scheme of things. Money is our
ever crude manner Of settling our
difficulties. but at least there need
not be a wholesale slaughter OF
ideals. Let the dreamer have his
dreams if he paints the world in
fairer cOlors"

STATE FEDERATION
OF WOMEN'S CLUBS
Conservation of Natural Beauty Spots
in Every Town and Community
Urged by Club Women

Mrs. w. S. Norman of Seattle, as
chairman Of the conservation com
mittee of the Washington State Fed
Grafton of Womens clubs, has many
times been called upon to answer
the question, What has conserva-
ton to dc with women's clubs?"
AS an organization we feel that
conservation is a physical necessity
as in so many ways it directly affects
our HON s. Our mutual resources
are not limitless or inexhaustibie,
and when we destroy them we but in
vite poverty and national decay. We
do not believe in locking up" our
national wealth. but we do believe
that it should be used with care and
that we should not waste or abuse
it. Conservation means use of our
natural resources as we'll as preser-
walton. The natural resources of this
country are for the use of all our
people for all time and hence we
should use these resources with
thought of the generations to come
We have added a very interesting
division to our conservation work as
special attention and thought Is be-
ing given to the preservation of our
natural scenery and the development
of our national parks.
AS a nation we are credited as
having led the world in the creation
of national parks and that other
countries have emulated our ex-
ample Let us not forget that the
number of our places of scenic beauty
do not increase but that as popula-
ton increases, without preservation,
our natural beauty spots will disap-
pear. And so it is urged that in this
great, beautiful, American out-of-
doors, we give more thought to our
treatment of natures beauty and
wealth. There are perhaps in every
community or town some picturesque
spots which we may help to preserve,
if only a group of trees or a clump
of native shrubs. If each one of our
clubs will develop this thought we
shall in no small degree contribute
to the ennobling of our national
spirit.

PULLMAN DEFEATS
WALLA WALLA HIGH
Coach Satterthwaites Huskies Are
Now in the Running for Cham
pionship of Eastern
Washington

Pullman high school scored one of
the biggest victories in it's remark
able football record last Friday by
defeating the crack team of the
Walla Walla high school by a score
of to 8. The Walla Walla boys
had cleaned up everything in that
section of Washington and Oregon
and had beaten North Yakima high.
They expected an easy victory over
Pullman and started off with a rush,
scoring three points on field goal
in the first quarter. After that
Pullman's defense stiffened and the
ball was kept in Walla Walla's ter
ritory most of the time. Pullman's
touchdown came as the result of the
fumbling of a punt by one of the
Walla Walla backs. Stone grabbed
up the pigskin and sprinted 80
yards to the goal line. Pullman's
victory was more decisive than the
score indicates, for once Stone and
again Norman got away and had
clear fields for touchdowns, but
slipped and fell on the newly graded
and soft gridiron.
Tomorrow at 1890 a. m. at the
city park, the Pullman boys will line
up against their old Colfax rivals in
tho pama which will cattlo tho county,
high school championship. Colfax
has stronger and better coached
team than for several years, but
Coach Satterthwaite is quite conf
dent that his huskies will retain the
championship. The price of admis-
sion to the game will be 35 cents.
