HOW TO DRESS WELL
ON A LITTLE MONEY
Girls Who Can Sew Should DC Able
to- Get Along on $50 Year,
Says Teacher.

CHICAGO. April 6.-There are
four ways in which a nigh school
girl may know when she is well
dressed. according TO Mrs Kate Ba-
con Bond who addressed the child
welfare conference of the Illinois
Congress Of Mother and Parent
Teacher associations.
Dress inconpicuously. wear cloth
ing suitable for all occasions and
which is suitable to your coloring
and you are we'll groomed," she de-
clared 1T is not the amount of
money which girls pay for clothes
that determines whether they are
we'll dressed. If you can sew and
make your own things YOU ought to
get along nicely for $50 year. If
you have to have your things made
$50 should be plenty. One thing
should be rememb ered above all
others. The costumes should be no
more noticeable than the person
wearing it,"
To illustrate her point, Mrs Bond
presented two models. one wore a
dress made for less than SIS and
the other a gown that had cost S135

depth of water here in the olden days,
the tardy development Of the country
west of the river, the ease with when
travellers might set forth into that
country from this particular place,
would have given to other visitors, as
it gave TO Washington Irving, conf
dence in the future Of the city upon
this site. This city | may say would
have been just as large ultimately
without oil as it is likely to be now
that the oil has been found. The To-
cation of the city interests the stu
dent because in the development OF
your trade it illustrates one of the
laws wonderfully You must under
stand that no city in the world has a
trade zone in the form Of circle;
always the trade zone is in the form
of an elipse. The city is preferably
at one end of its own elipse. The di-
rection Of the elipse is always deter
mined by the direction of the early
settlement. Maine was settled by
travellers from Boston and Massa-
chusetts. All the trade elipses of
Maine reach from the southwest to-
ward the northeast. Chicago, Mime
apolis, st. Paul, Des Moines, Kansas
City, were all settled by travellers
from the east; their trade elipses
reach in the one case due west, in
two Of the others northwest, in the
fourth case southwest. Your direc-
tion of settlement was fixed by the
laying of the rails of the first rail
road which came to this site. Those
rails came from the northeast and
went generally in the direction of
southwest. The striking illustration
of a general truth is it that your
elipse is founded upon an action fol-
lowing exactly the line of that early
settlement. The dimensions of your
elipse are great enough to warrant
much more of retail trade than the
city possesses. May say that again?
The dimensions of your elipse and the
purchasing power of the people with
in it warrant much more of retail
trade than your city possesses. 1t

What a City Is.
What is this city? Why a place
oh, no! Well, an area; oh, no again
A spot on the map; not at all! It is
something so much finer and more
thrilling than any Of them that won
der we have not all understood: for
this city is "A company. a company of
Gods children bound together by
unity. The unity is two great cables
making one. economic interests and
spiritual interests. Were either OF
these cables 10 break, the city would
pull apart; without either one il could
not live a moment, as in no one of the
three essentials of that declaration
have as many as twenty residents Of
beautiful Tulsa had any knowledge
whatsoever heretofore We are deal
ing then with company and the es-
sentials that bind IL together are eco
nomic interests and spiritual inter
ests. This company is made up Of a
great many people; each of these peo-
pie has a personality, so the whole
company has a personality. The be-
ginning of the proper study Of city
is determining its personality.
Now cities in their personalities
differ almost as much as some Of you
differ from each other. You know
Boston, and the cartoons of her in
the comics with u little boy whose
name is Ralph Waldo and little girl
whose name is Lucy Stone. Boston
has very much more entertaining
personality than that. For first, she
is the seat Of a great institution Of
learning, an institution that thinks
itself great enough to be independent
even when it is wrong. Then it is an
institution of a great area of poverty.
Those Of you who have read the rather
remarkable book Of Mary Clinton's
will not need that should enlarge on
the poverty of Boston. Most remark
able, Boston is a city of a great aver
age Of community hygiene, the high
est perhaps among the large cities of
the world. By way of contrast. think
Of New Orleans. In the city sense
whatever is picturesque is very likely
to be dirty and New Orleans is alto

Cities begin, usually, as places of
refuge. Is there not something stirk-
ing in that fact, even though it be
symbolism? They begin almost in.
variably as places of refuge. These

and girls, young and grown, are cap

The Birth of Venice.
May | stop to tell you a story; the
time is going, but can not resist. In
the old, old days there was a land
tribe at the north of Italy which could
not cope upon an equal basis with an
other land tribe. Lying a little out
in the sea were some islands. These
people calculated that with their feet
upon the hard land of these islands.
they could fight away that stronger

founded little villages upon the island.
Thus in refuge was born Venice, the
mistress of the Adriatic.
Rome has three names; in Greek,
in Latin and in modern Italian, every
one of them meaning strength, and
all of them signifying that in the old,
old day, before she lost her character
and her soul, she was city of walled
refuge. In somewhat the same fash
ion every great city until this, our
own generation, had its origin. For
now, despite the cataclysm that is
sweeping over the world and has en-
quilted us, in despite of it all, it is
possible to build city without need
for the old kind of refuge.
When these people come together
for the purposes of refuge and mu-
tual protection, they begin to barter.

28.5 eggs per hen, IT'S eggs per hen
being produced in March.
The same wheatless ration has
been fed since last November to a
pen of Buff Orpington pullets which
have laid SO eggs per hen in 20
weeks, and hold the highest egg rec
ord Of any OF the large feeding pens
Of pullets at the farm this year.
Two other pens. however, are less
than 1 egg per hen behind this pen.
The ration used was as follows:
Scratch mixture: Two pounds Of
cracked corn, one pound oats.
Dry mash: Three. pounds corn
meal, one pound beef scrap.
The scratch mixture was fed spar
ingly so that the hens ate about
equal parts of this mixture and Of
the dry mash. The total grain con-
sumption Of feed for the year was
So pounds. Of which 26 pounds was
scratch mixture. Throughout the
year it took 4.6 pounds Of feed to
produce a dozen eggs.
This scratch mixture, with wheat
$2.57, cracked corn $1.35. and oats
70 cents per bushel, is ~ cents per
hundred pounds cheaper than the
regular mixture of equal parts OF
cracked corn, wheat and oats. An
other mash which is slightly cheaper
than this one, is made of four per
cent each bran and middlings, 20
per cent beef scrap, and Sc per
cent corn meal.
II the wheat is omitted from the
ration it is very essential to feed q
considerable proportion of beef
scrap in the mash, but with present
prices, beef scrap is one of. the
cheapest poultry feeds, considering
its high protein content. s.
These experiments. the specialists
say, prove that wheat is not essential
in an egg-laying ration and that ex'
cellent results can be secured by
using corn and oats as a scratch
mixture provided this is fed with q
good mash containing 25 per cent
beef scrap.

FOUR MAKES OF AUTO
LENSES HELD LEGAL
USE OF ANY OTHER AFTER DE-
CEMBER VIOLATION OF
STATE LAW.

| Four makes of lenses for automo-
bile headlights are authorized for use
/ in this state after December /, ac-
| cording to findings of the headlight
investigation committee, made public
this week by Secretary of State l. M.
Howell. Safety rules in the use of
lights and an agreed price for lenses
approved are included. The commit
tee will make additional tests as
other lenses are submitted and in
clude those that pass in the author
lied list.
The lenses approved are: Crew.
Levick Tractors, Noviol Conafore,
McBeth, Mckee.
Use of other than the lenses ap-
proved after the date designated will
be treated as a violation of state au-
tomobile regulations under the stat
ute.
In order to prevent advantage be-
ing taken of the public through des-
ignation of certain lenses as legal,
Secretary Howell negotiated a retail
price agreement with the manufac-
turers for the ensuing year. He
states that any increase in the follow
ing agreed prices will be in violation
of the agreement, and asks that such
an instance be Immediately reported
to his department.
Here are the prices to the automo-

the desired maximum of $5,O0O,00O,-
600, treasury officials announced.
Including the subscription OF
$2O0,0O0,0OO made. by the state
finance board, which is credited to
the state as whole though made
through the Capital National bank Of
this city, the county's total is $604,-
$50. OF this amount, applications
for $506,6O0 were received by the
Capital National, the Olympia Ma
tional took in $75,25O, the Citizens
Bank of TeUno reported $4,000
more, and $4,000 was subscribed by
Bucoda. Bordeaux holds the record
for the communities outside Olym-
pia, 80 of its citizens buying $4,000
worth of the bonds.
The subscriptions came from 1925
persons in this county. Throughout
the nation at least 100000 and per-
haps 100000 persons bought
bonds, but the treasury department
and the federal reserve banks were
swamped with an avalanche of last
minute subscriptions and have been
unable to compile accurate figures as
to the number of subscribers or the
total amount applied for.
These figures, 1t is expected, will
be announced the latter part of this
week.
