President Perisho on his return
from the meeting Of College Presi
dents at Washington, d. c., reports a
very satisfactory meeting of the Presi
dent and Experiment Station Directors

ton. The general meeting will now
consist of the presidents or heads of
the land grant colleges and UNIVERSE
ties, the directors Of the experiment
stations, the directors of the extern
sion work and the representatives of
the engineering departments with a
representative Of the home economics
departments of three institutions.

favor of the support of the Newlands
bill which proposes to extend govern
ment aid to experiment work in en-
.gineering among the land grant col
leges.

THOMAS LARSON CALLED HOME

Volga Tribune:-The death angel
has again entered one of the homes
Of this vicinity and removed one of our
most highly respected citizens. While
Thomas II. Larson had been ill for
many months and it was known that
his passing away was only a matter of
time nevertheless the fact that he has
passed to his last reward is a deep and
sincere shock to the entire community
and n that has cast a gloom over all.
To know him was to admire and re-
spect him and he was uniformly liked
by all the people of this general com.
munity.
Thomas Hjelle Larson was born in
Voss, Norway, October Z, 1916, and was
the son Of Lars and Gertrude Hjelle.
He came to America in 1868, working
at different places in this country until
1878, when he bought a farm in Column
bia county, Wisconsin. While in Wis
consin he was married to Synva Lee
and they lived there until June, 1858.
when he and his family moved to Lake
Sinai township, Bookings county,
South Dakota. He had made his home
in this locality since that time. He
passed away at the old home on No
vember "a, aged II years, l month and
II days.
Nine children we're born to Mr.. and
Mrs. Larson, of whom eight, as fol
lows, are left to mourn the passing
away of a kind and affectionate father:
Mrs. ]. NJ. Odegaard, of Pine City, Min.
n%esota; Andrew Larson, of Brookings;
Larson, of Sinai; Mrs. Albert
Quail, of Sinai; Norman Larson. of
Minneapolis, and Theodore, Conrad
md Ida, of Sinai. Another daughter,
Mrs. Thee. Hougholm (Bessie) passed
away last February. All the children
we're with their father during his last
hours and all were present at the fu-
leral. He also leaves a brother in
chicago and one brother and three
sisters in Norway.
Funeral services were held at the
1ast church on Monday afternoon of
his week by Rev. o. J. Opstad, pastor
If the church, and the interment was
n the cemetery southeast of the vii
age.
All the old friends and neighbors of
Larson and the children unite in
Extending their heartfelt sympathy to
hem in their hour of deep bereave-
lent.

PAPER PATTERNS FOR WINTER
HATS

Have you ever tried to make a paper
CODY of the hat that you want before
making it out of the material? If not,
do so the next time and see if it is
not only a great help but also a saw
ing j n the velvet or cloth that you use.
This paper hat may be quickly and
satisfactorily made by using heavy
wrapping paper for the foundation and
tissue paper for the covering and trim
ming, in white, black or the color de-
sired for the hat itself.
Measure a piece of frame wire the
desired length for the headsize and al
low four inches for tapping. Fasten
securely and shape to fit the head, de-
Gliding how far it should the
hair and forehead. On the wrapping
paper draw around this headsize wire
making the headsize line for the paper
hat. Measure in each direction for the
desired width of brim and shape ac-
COluluS W inc plCluIt VI hdL that yOu
are copying.
Paper foundation and covering may
be easily fastened together by pinnin3,
lacking or pasting, and with the trim
ming pinned on the pattern hat is
ready to be adjusted to the individual
style and face. 1t is a very simple
matter to shape this crown or brim
differently, to enlarge or decrease one
side or to change the trimming.
Shaped correctly it now serves as an
exact pattern by which to cut the foun-
dation of the hat which may be of
buckram, sheet willow, net, canvas,
etc. The covering may also be cut by
this pattern. This will save not only
any wasteful cutting into expensive
v~elvets, felts, or perhaps satin, but
