DYE SHORTAGE makes
easter ECC PROBLEM
Easiest Way is TO Buy the
Eggs Already COlored
in the Stores
PAPER COLORINGS
ARE POPULAR

Easter makes one think of spring
hats, poetry, hand organs, baseball or
what not,-all according TO your par
ticular point of view. But Easter Sun
day brings but one thought TO the kid
dies, and that is the thought OF dyeing
Easter eggs.
For it wouldn't be Easter morning If
the timid hen-fruit wasn't decorated
with wonderfully executed designs i'm
blues, greens and puppies. The hddies
simply wouldn't hear of anything but
the very latest 1916 designs in egg deco
ration any more than some women
would wear a last years hat.
The present dye shortage situation
has shown its disastrous effect in
many ways, but in none more promi-
nently than the Easter egg dye supply
Egg dyes used to come almost alto
gether from Germany. The leftover
supply from last year is about all thai
Is available this season
Therefore, old and new ways have
/ had to be thought up. That antiquated
method Of taking an egg and twistins
1 It up in a piece OF figured calico, then
boiling It until the figures we're repro.
duced on the egg. may be a way out OF
this years dilemma Colored tissue
paper, such as have been used TO dye
shirtwaists. makes another makeshift
The eggs should be boiled in enough
water to cover them. with a generous
piece OF crepe paper added to the pan
! Harmless cOlOrings may be pur-
chased at some of the shops for
cents a package. There are the plain
colors, such as green. purple. red
/ blue and brown. and the marbled ef-
fects. Then you can get sheets made
OF thin tissue paper with comics on
them and all kinds OF funny figures
TO amuse children and grown-ups as
we'll. These you simply apply TO the
egg with the figure side against the
egg. then dab the paper with a moist
ened cloth. The figures come on
beautifully
Notified effects are obtained in some
what the same manner, only the egl
is wrapped in cloth. then laid in a cuI
OF cold water for a while. The advan
tage of this method Is that the boilinl
process is not reuired. and the egg
may be hot. cold, boiled or unboiled
All OF the colors are absolutely harm
Il S, so that the eggs may be eater
on Easter morning without disastrou
results.
All-ready-dyed Easter eggs may b.
purchased at many Of the poultr.
and grocery stores at the same pric
as the ordinary eggs. These are II
bright colorings - peacock blues
greens, browns and marbled tones
/ Tho woman who hasn't time for tn
other kind will welcome them, bu
the kiddies much prefer the fascina
tion of seeing the process iron
start TO finish. Young America, ar

he could take no decisive step with
out the approval OF the American
Congress. which was opposed to any
action that might lead TO war.

a trustee OF the church was asked
today about the plans for removing
