THE STLYE OPENING
FINE WEATHER IS BRINGING OUT
LARGE CROWDS.

The Spring Opening, which began
Tuesday and lasts throughout the
week, and spring weather went hand
in hand in giving the inhabitants
and visitors of Oskaloosa as rare u
treat as it has been their pleasure to
experience. The window decorations
in all the latest colors in the wearing
apparel consisting of hats, coats.
suits, evening and sport dress, hos
iery, gloves and shoes made a grand
er display than has ever been in the
stores Of Oskaloosa.
The inside decorations have struck
the note of response in the hearts of
many women with their strongly ap-
pealing Spring display. Flowers and
palms were used throughout the
stores and in many places one or two
color schemes were carried out very
beautifully.
In the tailored suits they are OF
strictly tailored design, having semi
fitting coats and skirts in modified
barrel lines. Serges, gabarlines, taft.
eta, silk Jersey, satin and mohair in
blues, greens, grays, gold and black
offer a variety that is very easy to
choose from
The spring skirt that is best for all
round wear comes in variation from
the straight line models. g.,
The new waists and dresses come
in fabrics and colors so varied as to
meet every individual taste and re-
quirement. These colors are gold,
blue, tan, grey, and green. The ma
terial in Georgette Crepe, Crepe-re'
Chine and Novelty silks.
OF the hats this season, enough can
not be said of the shapes, colors and
trimmings displayed in the windows
of the various shops. The colors are
very similar to those carried out in
waists, suits and dresses.
The shoes, gloves and neckwear
departments also come in for their
share of special mention,
1t requires great deal OF time.
work and skill to completely change
these stores from a winter sales room
to one from which spring looks forth
from every shelf and counter and the
patrons OF these different stores most
assuredly appreciate all the efforts put
forth in making this great change and
in making this the most beautiful
spring opening.

On Saturday afternoon, March II.
the graduate nurses of the Mahaska
Hospital held a meeting at the hos
pital, and formed an organization to
be known as The Mahaska Hospital
Alumni Association" AS a result OF
the election, the following officers
were chosen:
President, Mrs. Jennie Rockefeller,
r. n.
Vice President. Mrs. Pearl E.Jones,
R. N.
Secretary. Miss Ida f. Swanson,

The nurses were full of enthusiasm
and an interesting meeting was held.
1t was decided that regular meetings
were to be held every month. This
will do very much toward keeping up
not only the interest in the training
school, but also the standard OF nurs-
ing.
After the formal organization had
taken place, plans we're made to raise
funds for purchasing furnishings for
the new home for the pupil nurses of
the Mahaska Hospital Training
School. The members of the asso.
citation pledged one hundred dollars,
and each nurse will be an active
worker among the interested friends
of the institution.

THIRTY YEARS WAR PLAQUES
Sweeping Away Of Lives Was Fright
full, Combatants Themselves
Being MoWn Down.

In the famous Thirty Years war, 1t
is estimated, the population Of central
and western Europe was reduced from
thirty millions to less than fifteen mill
lions, and yet during the whole Of that
time there were only forty important
battles fought, and their total death
casualties did not reach half a million.
All the rest of the frightful sweep
ing away of life was from plague and
famine, which not only followed In the
wake of the armies, but moved down
the combatants themselves.
Nor was the deadly work of these
fierce partners of war-the terrible
triple alliance of the prayer book,
plague, pestilence and famine-con-
fined to the civil populations. They
played equal havoc in the ranks of the
armies themselves.
Even as recently as the days Of Gus
tavus Adolphus that great captain is
said to have broken up his winter quar-
tiers and begun his summer campaign
nearly two months earlier than he had
intended because at the rate at
which his soldiers were dying from dis
ease in their huts and barracks he
would soon have had no army left to
campaign with.

The Star never prints one of those
long-winded Thanksgiving proclama-
tons if it can help it. The fiction ex-
lists that the president writes them,
but it is doubtful if the president ever
sees one until it is laid before him. IL
is the duty of a clerk in the depart
ment of state to write one every year,
and Judging by the way things are
done in the government departments,
that is about all he does for his sal
airy. We suppose the governor OF
state occasionally, seeing the presi-
dents proclamation, writes an entire
ly unnecessary echo, but as general
thing the state proclamations are also
written by clerks. There is good
deal of sniveling hypocrisy about
Thanksgiving proclamations. There
was one governor 1--WE forget his name
and state) who had the spunk in one
exceptionally bad year to come out
and say there was nothing to be
thankful for, but none so far have had
| the manhood to initiate him.

Several cars were stolen last week
at Orlando, three at Tallahassee and
yesterday three were taken at Tampa.
Of course we know what this auto
stealing means to an owner and we
propose that they be treated like cat
tie thieves are in Kansas and Okla
.homa. We have seen horse thief
taken with rope around his neck
and dragged from the horn of a sad
die for stealing respectable mans
animal and a horse thief or cattle
thief in that country now is as scarce
as open saloons. That is one way
that the culprits can be taught that
automobiles belong to the man who
pays for them and we are in favor of
just some such drastic measures and
will help in the ceremonies of the first
one caught. We hope he is caught
around Lakeland with our car at that.

Tuesday evening, several of our
public spirited citizens met at the
board of trade rooms with Mr. A. E.
Koehler of Jacksonville, who repre-
sents the association that is prepar-
ing to give state fair in that city
Feb 26 to March 9. Mr.. Koehle1
showing to them that this association
was preparing to give a good fair,
and that twenty counties were al
ready in line, the said citizens resolv-
ed that Marion should be represented,
and engaged space for our county's
exhibits. Marion has several times
exhibited at the Tampa fairs, and al
ways with satisfactory results, and it
is believed the county can do as well
or better at this Jacksonville fair,
which will probably be largely attend
ed by people from all over the state
and all over the United States.
