Will You Stand Sponsor for One
BOYS Christmas Box2

The Students Club has undertake
en- to furnish as many Christmas
boxes as possible to the Morris and
Stevens county soldiers. The com
mittee finds it impossible to furnish
each soldier of the entire list with
box as the boxes when filled are
to cost rs cents. While the response
to the appeal of last week was most
generous, yet there are still num-
Der of boys unprovided for.
The committee feels that the COM
munity is interested in seeing that
every soldier boy is remembered with
box, and therefore invites anyone
interested to please send the price of
box with the name of the sender
to Mrs. G.. w. Geenty. The names
of the donors will be enclosed in the
boxes. The committee will attend to
the making of the articles and the
packing and shipping of the boxes.

tributed:

Some Fish Story

Benson Monitor-Theo. K. Lee,
superintendent of the light plant,
spent Sunday with relatives in Lang
hei, Pope county and on Monday was
around town with the most wonder
full fish story we have bumped up
against for many moon. Accord
ing to TheO. fish, or animal, he
didn't know which, was reported to
have been taken from Lake Mime
waska few days previous by parties
who are seining the lake for rough
fish. This, what is it, is supposed
to have a head and trunk like an
elephant, four short legs and makes
noise like dog barking. He said
it was on exhibition in one of the
stores at Glenwood and reward of
$25 is offered to anyone who is able
to classify it. Theo. said this is alb
sOlutely true, altho he did not see
the freak of nature himself. Next.

EMBROIDERY ON CH1LDRENs CLOTHES.
By ANNE RITTENHoUsE.
.ci,I Corre,nondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence of The Star.
NEW YORK. June 1.-THE manu-
facturers OF rare laces conceived the
idea of introducing as novelty a
flight Of birds across the weaving.
and then those who preferred still more
striking effects arranged fne nets with
birds scattered over the surface in pale
blue or pink.
Presently ornamental sunshades came
into fashion, dotted with flying birds.
and then the milliners took up the
idea of putting a jet bird in full flight
on the front of a wide brimmed hat as
it's only ornament.
Afternoon frocks Of white crepe de
chine have black velvet birds forming
a border at the hem as well rs at the
sleeves that open widely from the
elbow in primitive fashion. Gowns OF
white satin and wraps of the same
material are trimmed with bands OF
black velvet ribbon, between which
are applied small birds in jet

server that such crude display or
birds would not be tolerated by women
who really dress well. However. one
accepts the fashion for bird embroidery
or applique without demur. for the Idea
has come over from Japan. along with
thousands of bales of Silks. pongees
and other fabrics that America is now
buying in great quantities from her

That's the beauty of being prepared"
Cnc' Billy thought il over for a few
minutes Then he sighed and sighed
again.
"Ah reckon yo' and Brer Porky arc
about the luckiest people All knows"
said he. Yes. sab. All reckons yo' Is
just that. All don't fear anybody nah

some mighty scary times when All

way to carry water, and If each mem
Der of a picnic or hiking party carries
ms or her own canteen swung over
the back there is no burden by way
of carrying water. And there is no
problem of dividing the water evenly.
Naturally the fashion for bingham
frocks has made Bingham in many va
rietfes popular. There are very at
tractive Bingham cushions for porch
and hammock. In some of the smart
est shops these are shown made of
checked or plaid bingham combined
with plain material. Sometimes there
is plain rufIle around a checked
cushion and sometimes the rufflc is Of
