DESIGN A BATHING SUIT FOR ME
BY BETTY BROWN.

Here is another chance to design
a bathing suit for me, and at the
same time get one for yourself if
your idea is one of the two best. This
outline has been printed once before,
so if you didn't like your first effort
you can try again.
All manner of suits have been en-
tered for consideration so far, but
the competition is yet young. It has
just reached the halfway mark. One
piece suits for girls who fairly live
in the water have been plentiful On

You have plenty Of time and can
afford to be careful in outlining your
ideas.
There will be six more pictures,
ending with Saturday, April p.

in three or four drawings. They are
using the different outlines at least
once. You can use all u pictures. or

Use your own judgment, but get
busy and outline your ideas. This
design, like the one yesterday. will
be printed twice more. All together
there are four different diagrams
each of which will be printed three
times.
That means you will have plenty of
different diagrams on which to indi-

With the present high prices of food
and advances being made every day it
is fast becoming evident the govern
ment will have to take over the distri-
button of the same and in so doing cut
out some of the profit that must be
tackled onto the prices. People cannot
pay such prices as are being asked and
while there may be real shortage in
though advantage is being taken. Gov
eminent control is surely coming.
J. V. Nash Of Cottonwood was among
the patriotic out-of-town people who
were here Saturday to attend the meet
ing of Idaho county citizens who or
gained an increased food producing
society. The firm of Goldstone, Nash
& Creelman, which is one of the leading
mercantile firms of the west side, was
the first business firm in Idaho county
to give impetus to the increased pro
duction movement by public offering to
give prizes for the best vegetables of
various varieties grown by children un-
der fifteen years of age, thus .encourag-
ing every young child to do MIS- or her
bit by growing a garden. This is the
kind of work that counts and more of
it ought to be undertaken by firms and
individuals.
