Big Advertisement.

It is the opinion OF members OF the
directorate and others that this meet

big advertisement for northern

in their assessment to do so, in order
that it may be financed.
Potatoes grown in the northern
section of the state have proven OF
Al duality, not only for consumption
but for seed and as the December

of the advertising which would re-

If October's brides take advantage
of the great liberty in the choice of
styles, for their wedding gowns this
year, they will be wonderfully garbed.
1t appears that they may be quite in
dependent of the current modes and
make excursions into the past in order
to garb themselves and their attend
ants in the styles of other days and
other lands. All that is required of
the wedding procession Is that 1t shall
be picturesque and dignlfied. There Is
no getting away from that last condi-
tion no frivolous and light-binded sug
gestion must appear in the brides ap-
parel.
If she chooses the modes of the hour
she is fortunate, also. for she finds
them beautifully adapted to the we'd
ding gown. There are the straight-line
dresses and those that show a little
definition of the waistline; all simple
and dignified. And the vogue for full
draperies in soft, rich satins plays In
to the hands of the designer of we'd
ding gowns. Just how well this style
can be managed is shown in the gown
pictured.

The comfortable and reliable kmo-
lounging robes and negligees, appears
in greater force than ever, secure of a
place in every wardrobe. Japan is
sending a lot of them in pretty color
lngs and with attractive embroiderieS,
and selling at very moderate prices.
Some of these are made of thin silks,
interlined, but most of them are of
cotton crepes. The printed silks are
very interesting.
Among the American cottons flannel
cite is the most popular choice for
kimonas and house jackets made for
real comfort. The newest arrivals
among them are finished with ruffles
of narrow ribbon, and proclaim their
allegiance to the cause of pockets by
adopting one or two. Most of them
also bear the signs of the times in a
narrow belt made of the same mate
rial rs the kimona. But this is one
of the garments that has no good rea-
son for changing and therefore the
kimonas of today are much like those
Of many yesterdays.
In the picture CHEEKY and good
looking example of the Japanese silk
kimona has set-in sleeves and wide
collar edged with frill of satin rib

OF the collar are set on at each side.

with turned-back cuffs edged with rib

Breakfast Cheer.

A breakfast daintily served is the
surest index of perfect day. One
woman, who determined to give her
hubby cheerful sendoff every morn
ing, bought blue willowware for the
breakfast china. Then she used blue
and white as her color scheme for the
dining room. She made napkins of
white linen, rolled their hems and
blanket-stitched them in blue. They
We're related Mt once to the china.
Then she bought two blue and white
runners and spread these over the
breakfast table. A blue bowl, which
held a place in the center of the ta-
BILE, always contained white flowers of
some sort. This was one wonan's way
to make a husband happy.

made of the silk, tells the rest of the
story of this unpretentious garment
that contrives to be fascinating because
of its simplicity and the real beauty
of the silk. 1t would make lovely

A novel window seat, which contains
storage space for clothing, can be ey
tended to form a single bed.
The Colorado statesman., 1917-09-29

This model has the regulation long
sleeve, partly of satin and partly of
crepe georgette, but it has not the reg
ulation high neck. A little chemisette
of crepe with v opening at the front,
makes pretty amends for the absence
of higher collar. 1t is hardly dis
cernible in the picture. The train is
long and straight and the veil is long
er, falling in two lengths from the
puffs across the back of the head. The
ends of the veil are bordered with fine
val lace and the shorter length is
something over half the length of the
figure. A very narrow girdle and
double strand of pearl beads dispose
of the finish at the waistline, and
long strand of pearls is worn about the
neck.
Orange flower buds make a band
about the forehead. with clusters of
buds and blossoms arranged in the
veil at the back. Altogether this is
costume that will never look less beau
tiful in years to come than it does to-
day-and the bride will always be able
to point with pride to her picture.
