GRADES
USE HIGH SCHOOL

Instead of using the halls for study
rooms. the primary grades in the
Fountain City schools will use the va
cant seats in the high school depart
ment.
This arrangement was made yester-
day by Superintendent Williams. He
found that the plan Of the Fountain
City school authorities to make use Of
the halls was not good because of the
lack of natural light.
Plans for the new high school build
ing will be finally adopted by the New

A feature of the military operations
much commented on by the French
experts is that the allies not only
gain their objective in the attacks
they make, but hold on to their cap

lodge them.

Blue Raincoats.

To be sartorially correct on a rainy
day now, you must wear blue rain
coat. These coats, made. of rubberized
silk, are in the exact shade of rain
coats worn by French officers. Of blue
also, are coats Of pontine, a waxed ma
terial that is perfectly waterproof and
has a reverse side of silk or satin in
contrasting color. Pontine coats are
slightly more expensive than ordinary
raihcoats of rubberized silk, but they
are vastly smarter, for this material
is in great vogue and is ultra smart
just now. A coat of blue pontine with
a reverse of white satin is in mannish
box-coat style with good flare below
the arms. Rows OF silk stitching in
white and big white pearl buttons en-
phasize the tailored effect, and the
white satin side of the material is
turned back to show like a facing, in
collar and cuff.

TAKE GOOD CARE. OF SHOES
IF Leather Is Kept Soft and Trees
Used, Life of Footwear Will Be
Much Extended.

With the cost of shoes going up it
pays to give special care to ones foot
wear nowadays.
Some women seem to think that
sEoe trees are merely pretty orna-
ments, whereas they are really neces-
saries. The leather in shoes should
not be allowed to shrink, which it is
apt to do if shoes are taken from
moist feet and left in warm place.
If trees are used the shoes will keep
their shape. Wet shoes should never
be dried at stove, or on a radiator,
or near a heater of any description.
The effect of heat SO applied is to dry
the oil out of the leather and cause
the shoes to crack.
Another thing not to do is to let
shoes stand in damp place, or in a
closet near the heat. Leather should
not be allowed to become dry. It
should be kept soft, quite the same as
when it is in it's natural condition on
the, animal. Natural animal oils
should be rubbed over the shoes occa-
sionally. In many cases if one would
rub banana skin on the shoes it would
be sufficient. This not only cleans, but
keeps the leather soft. For brown
shoes this is especially good, as it
takes off all stains, and one using this
simple cleanser is astonished at the
result.
The two principal things to be re-
membered regarding the care of shoes
are that the shoes trees should be
slipped in as soon as the shoes are
removed and that the leather should
be kept clean and soft.

gimp Hill GUESSED WRONG
RaiIroader Once Made the Prediction
That ST. Paul Would Never
Amount to Much.

There are few men who can chal-
lenge successfully the foresight of the
late James j. Hill, but Capt. jerry
Turner of Lansing, Ia, who visited st.
Paul for the first time in fifty-tWo
years the other day, is one of them.
Captain Turner relates how he over
heard Mr.. Hill make the assertion that
st. Paul never would remain long as
the head of navigation on the Upper
Mississippi, and that was more than
a half century ago.
81 was then plying the Upper Mis-
sissippi on the steamer City Belle"
Captain Turner said. ''Mr. Hill, who
at that time was clerking on the
wharf, was aboard the boat discussing
prospects with the captain.
s'Wacouta is the logical head of navi-
cation on the Mississippi" Mr.. Hill
said. est. Paul cannot long retain the
distinction for this reason. just as
soon as the farm lands on the Upper
Mississippi are well under cultivation,
the upper channel is bound to fill up,
and boats of any consequence will be
unable to ply that far north.

Fish Couldn't submerqe.

Sitting on his porch the. other morn
ing. T.. w. Stewart noticed good
sized catfish floating downstream, a
Statesville IN. Co. correspondent Of
the New York Sun writes. The fish
was very much alive and was in much
commotion, apparently trying to go
under water and for some reason
unable to.
Mr.. Stewart was interested and he
got his boat, went out on the river and
captured the fish. He put it in tub
Of water and found that it wouldn't
sink. This Led to further examination
and Mr.. Stewart says he found the
fish had swallowed a large quantity
of wheat-having access to the wheat
as result of the recent foods-the
wheat grains had swelled SO the fish
couldn't digest them and altogether
that gorge of wheat had put that fish
in a bad fix. He not only could not
go under the water, but he was doubt
less suffering much misery on his in
sides.
In all his long experience on the
river Mr.. Stewart says he had never
come across a case like that.

FOR SCHOOL WEAR

for these serviceable little skirts, to be
worn with separate blouses of challis,
pongee, crepe de chine, linen, etc.
The skirts have self-attached belts,
and skirt and blouse are attached by
means of buttons on the waistband of
the blouse and buttonholes worked in
an inside belt of the skirt.
A military note is evidenced in many
wool fabric dresses and suits devel-
oped for girls for fall and winter wear.
Flat braids are featured in the trim
mings favored, and there is pro-
nounced vogue for colored wool en-
broiderieS in high colors.
Velvet and velveteen are to be shown
in both plain and dressy models for
later wear.
Taffeta in plain color and plaid eff
fects is to be used for dressy frocks for
afternoon wear, and these silks are
also favored as combination for
both serge and velyeteen.
A normal or long waistline is the
best choice for girls of the school age,
except in the little party dresses de-
veloped for them, when the empire or
slightly raised waistline is OCCASION
ally favored.
The use Of detachable collars of en-
broidered organdie is a feature of serv-
iceable little wool fabric models de
veloped for school wear.

Beauty Secrets.

q Precipitation keeps the body at the
proper temperature, clears out the
pores of the skin, removes accumu-
lated acids that if left in the system
become poisons, and it increases circu-
lation During the summer few women
need to suffer from blackheads even If
they do not exercise, as the heat Of the
sun produces perspiration and the face
is cleared out.
The skin covering the body needs as
careful attention as the skin Of the
face. 1t requires daily bath in water
not too hot and good rubbings with a
rough but not too coarse towel.
If the skin performs its proper func-
tons every function Of the body is
aided, from the action of the muscles
to the digestion of the food; but the
greatest aid is given to the circulatory
system.

EMBLEM OF GERMAN GENIUS
Great Author Describes River Rhine
as Index of the Character OF

On leaving Cologne the stream winds

they increase in interest as you leave
Surdt and Godorf. The.peculiar char
acter Of the river does not, however,

break upon the eye. Around the
Nieder Cassel and Rheidt the vines lie
thick and clustering and, by the shore,
you see from place to place the islands
stretching their green length along,
and breaking the exulting tide.
Leaping into the broad bosom OF
the Rhine come many stream ana
rivulet upon either side. Spire upon
spire rises and sinks as you sail on.
Mountain and city-the solitary island
the castled steep-like the dreams OF
ambition, suddenly appear, proudly
swell, and dimly fade away.
"You begin now" said Trevelyan,
''to understand the character Of the
German literature. The Rhine is an
emblem Of its Iuxuriance, it's fertility,
it's romance. The best commentary to
the German genius is a visit to the
German scenery. The mighty gloom
Of the Harz, the feudal towers that
look over vines and deep valleys on
the legendary Rhine; the gigantic re

scattered over plain, mount and for
est the thousand mixed recollections
that hallow the ground the stately
Roman, the stalwart Goth, the chival-
nv of the feudal age, and the dim
brotherhood of the ideal world, have
here alike their record and their re-
membrance." Lord Lytton.

Snortive Black Bass.

agony, only to have him flop loose
just as the net was slipped beneath his

heart-rending experience to which man
is heir. Only the other day friend
of mine had that experience, and he
looked at me from his end of the
boat after the bass had disappeared,
