PAPER COLLECTIONS
ARE TO BE RESUMED
Supt. Thurston Directs That School
Children Again Take
Up Efforts.

Ernest l.. Thurston, superintendent
of public schools, this afternoon sent
directions to the principals of buildings
to resume collections of old papers and
magazines beginning Monday. The date
<or tha permanent closing of the col
iections will be determined in the near
future.
Mr.. Thurston in his communication
directed the principals to have ar
rangements made for the children to
bring in their old papers on the same
days of the week as those scheduled
prior to the cessation Of the collections
due to freight congestion. The boys
and girls through their efforts have
raised more than $4,000 so far for the
fund for Fairgrounds.
Although they were directed not to
bring their papers to school because of
the temporary suspension of collec-
tions, the children have continued to
save their papers, it is stated. There
fore, 1t is quite probable that an un-
usually large amount will be brought
to the schools next week.
The date for the permanent cessation
of the collections has not yet been set,
but it probably will be just prior to the
Easter holidays.

One Of the very excellent reasons for
selecting this dress for your Young daugh-

with childish simplicity. No s,405 is a
jumper dress TO be slipped on over the
head, and there is a separate guimpe
which buttons in the front. The waist is
severely plain, with very deep armholes
and a square, low cut opening at the
front The skirt is in two pieces and is
gathered to the waist. Slashed pockets
at the sides are outlined with wide braid,
the same trimming being used on other
parts of the dress. Bias lawn tape might
be substituted on a wash dress.
