1927.
Men then wore silk hoods, particol-

row waists, short hose, long pointed
shoes, bushy boards and tails of hair
at the back of their heads.
THE ladies' says a poet OF that
period, ''are like peacocks and mag

HOW =-=====

"HE following suggestions for

of the United States department of
agriculture.
If an indoor window box is decided
upon. good depth for 1t is about
eight inches. The bottom Of the box
should be covered with stones and
broken pottery for drainage. This
should be covered with "A layer of moss
TO prevent the soil from working down
and cloggine the drainage spaces. The
drainage and moss should take up to-
gether about two inches. The greater
the body of soil above the moss the
more uniformly moist 1t may be kept.
The soil should fail to FIJI the box by
from one and one-half TO two inches.
The indoor window box should be as
long as the window is wide. and to
get as much light as possible it should
be level with the window sill. 1t may

or legs permanently fastened 10 il. A

the bottom OF the box and drip pan
should be placed beneath To catch
drainage water.
The top of the soil should he allowed
to become dry occasionally. The re-
suits of watering should be closely
observed and the supply regulated ac-
cording TO needs. In general il is bet
ter to woser lightly and frequently
than heavily and infrequently. al
though just the reverse IS considered
best when watering Is done out OF
dpor in summer.
Begonas are about the only plants
that may be expected to flower In a
window box. For the most part foliage
alone must be depended upon as the
contribution of the indoor plants to the
attractiveness of the room. Among
the plants which may be grown for
foliage for window boxes are ferns.

aspidistra. The latter plant is espe-
cially valuable as window box plant
as it will thrive In spite of consider

In addition to the plants already
mentioned, palms, rubber plants and
cacti may be grown in pots. 1t Is ad-

OUTLINE DESIRED
CHARTER CHANGES

Charter.

At a meeting of the city commits
sioners this morning City. Atty. w. II.

fathers to several changes in the city
charter that he noted down during the
past year as changes that would
possibly be wanted by the commits
sioners.
There Is scarcely meeting that some
matter is not brought up that could
be handled in a more expeditions way
and with greater satisfaction, IL not
saving, IL there were changes in the
city charter, and these things had been
noted by the city attorney.
Among the things Mr.. Shure called
attention to today were changes which
would allow the city entering into
contracts for labor for more than on0
year; the changing of the law re-
garding publication OF ordinances
which will allow a synopsis being
published and stating where the full
ordinance may be found: changing the
laws to make it possible to put in
sewer and water curb connections be-
fore 1t has been declared necessary to
pave: n change in the law regarding
certification OF special assessments to
the county auditor; to allow a fund be-
ing established for sending city com.
missioners and employees to conven-
tons and other places for making
Investigations for the city good; maxi
ing it necessary for every claim to be

time after an accident has happened
and before litigation for damages Is
started; making II. possible for the

Fargo. Moorhead's
First Community Tree
Taken Down Today

Fargo Moorhead's first community
Christmas celebration really. ends to-
day, with the removal of the immense
and deliberately decorated tree. bril-
liantly lighted every night. that for
the past ten days has stood in splen-
dor at the foot of Broadway in sight
of hundreds of passengers through
this city, who have scattered to all
parts of the country, carrying with
them a message calling attention to
the enterprise and fine community
spirit of these sister cities. Much
credit is due the federated women's
clubs of this city. who started the
community Christmas movement To-
cally, and to the individual members
of these clubs who gave so freely OF
their time and energies to make the
celebration a success. Despite the
rigorous climate which characteriEes
this section. Of the country, even the
skeptical are convinced that such
community celebrations are possible
locally, when such events as the
Shakespearean pageant last May, and
the more recent celebration. in De-
cember, can be successfully conSum-
mated,
The way in which hundreds of cit
izens of Fargo and Moorhead con-
tributed their shares to the Christmas
celebration. by giving financial aid,
and by their presence and participa-
tion in the carol singing Christmas
eve, is most gratifying Many adj
miring comments were heard among
the vast crowd on the fact Of Bishop

Gordon Foy Drawing the elements TO
speak and to sing. respectively, and
never before in this city has Nine.
Toys beautiful soprano voice been
heard to better advantage than on
that occasion, despite the various an
noying handicaps of seemingly un-
avoidable noise. The appreciation exc
tended also to Manager George Fow-
Ter, through whose community spirit
the use of stereopticon outdoors was
arranged.
This, was the first celebration of it's
kind for the two cities, and further
emphasized the hearty spirit Of co..
operation that prevails between them.
Next year 1t IL hoped to repeat this
community celebration on q still larR-
er scale, and the city win keep the

for the tree. for use at such future
events. Already plans have been dis
cussed for charging upon these COM
munity ideas from year to year, until
such occasions locally assume the I'm
portance that they have already been
accorded in larger cities, in the east
particularly. One of the most ear
nest workers In this cause, in discuss
ing the celebration. cited one individ-
ual's comment which alone made all
the work worth while. This individ-
ual was a foreigner who could not
even sing the carols in English, but
who was so inspired with the Christ
mas spirit that she joyfully sang in
her native tongue, deeming the matter
OF speech a mere trifie when her heart
was so full of the Christmas joy.
The firemen. who aided so material
~ in placing and decorating the tree,
again offered their services in remov-
ing the decorations and taking down
the tree, which work is being done to-
day. The members of the central COM
mittee, which had the plans for the
celebration in charge, held a meeting
this morning to determine what shall
be done for conserving the decora-
tons, and to settle UP other matters
of business in connection with the
event.
