the Eye.

A class of rugs very commendable
for their durability are the Wiltons.
The patterns of these are copies Oh
the Orientals. and will fully meet the
wishes OF those who admire the old
Persian designs. Some OF them have
been taken from museum pieces both
in coloring and ornament, and through
expert knowledge and modern meth
DDS OF coloring and weaving we are
given astonishing reproductions OF
these old fabrics so suitable for IL
brary, living or dining room use. They
are among the most desirable rugs on
the market.
The familiar Administer. little less
durable and lower In price, can also be
had in first.class reproductions of the
Orientals, in golden browns and
green's, frightened with touches OF
red, and with an occasional note or
black to give the proper accent to the
whole. Other patterns with tan
ground, the borders of which show
the pear design with other Persian
figures. are particularly pleasing; the
coloring rich. yet soft and subdued.

GOWNS IN CLOTH OR SERGE
Designers Have Produced Charming
Little Models That Are Sure
to Be Appreciated.

In place of the ordinary tailored
coat and skirt which has been so
much worn up to the present time the
dressmakers are now producing very
charming little model gowns in cloth
or serge, suitable for wear either with
or without long wrap coat. and from
the advanced styles seen in some OF
the shops 1t is obvious that these COM
plete gowns will be much worn dur

fine navy serge or a soft quality face

frock made by famous firm in Paris
and copied by American importers
was made entirely Of navy serge, with
embroidery on CUFFS rand collar In fine
gold thread of Russian design, and
with motifs of this embroidery on the
simply cut blouse. the skirt itself be-

ETERNAL ENEMIES OF WEEDS
Sheep Clear Up Waste Vegetation and
Turn II Into Nationalist De.
stroy Many Insects.

Sheep are the sworn enemies Of
weeds. They clear up waste yegeta-
ton and turn It into mutton.
BY eating down and trampling the
weeds on the fields and along the
fences, they destroy many insects
which harbor in the weeds.
If the sheep merely pay for the ex-
ira grain given them, it is profitable
to keep them as scayengers and in
seCticides.

Sheen Must Have Water,

Some people actually believe that
sheep can live without water No such
thing. II is true that sheep in certain
seasons can live for days without be-
ing given water, but II is because they
get the dew on the grass. Sheep
should always be turned out to pas
ture early in the morning for this
reason, but besides, they should al
ways have plenty Of clean water. They
will not thrive without 1t.

ticipating in Field Day exercises today on
Belmont Plateau, F'airmount Park, under
the auspices of the Department of Physical
Training OF the Board of Education.
These exercises have been held annually
for the last nine years. but those OF today
proved to be more picturesque and attracted
larger crowd of spectators than any
held previously. While the program con-
sisted for the most part of athletic events,
there were dancing, marching and drilling
The first event took place at $3.50. o'clock
this morning, and the program will not be
concluded before o'clock this afternoon.
Music is being furnished by the Municipal
Band. The day began with free exercises"
of competitive nature but which have at
the same time a high educational value
Standing broad jumps, basketball throwing
for distance records and shuttle relay race
constituted the second event Games of
captain ball, dodge ball and Volley ball
followed.
A "lunch hour" was declared at noon
and at l o'clock the games we're re-
sumed. Mass marching which will begin
at $3.50 o'clock promises to be one of the
bration. Boys will participate in this fea-
ture exclusively and the girls will follow
in rhythmic marching, ..+
The last event. which will begin at 4
o'clock will be open to boys as well as girls
This will be an exhibition of public school
exercises and will serve to acquaint the
general public with the sort of physical
training that is undertaken in the ele-
mentary grades,

toned as a probable successor to Mr., Nor
ris as State chairman, also has been de-
feated. Palmer men. however. are hopeful

machinery will be controlled by the Palmer
leaders
In that regard it was pointed out by
Resident Secretary keenan, that .the re-
turns for delegate-at-Iarge have not been
received from Allegheny. Armstrong. But
