The celebration of Peace Day-the
signing of the armistice by Germany

Monday marked the second celebra-
ton Of this nature pulled Off in Ok
ford. The first celebration was par
ticipated in by the entire town last

larger in proportion in the way of a
demonstration than the first. More
than 1000 people gathered in Court
Square Monday afternoon. where
speeches were made for an hour, then
the opening Of the War Work Cam
paign followed.
Hundreds of shots were fired dur
ing the day, and the anvil represent
ing cannon shots, continued at short
intervals all the afternoon.
After the speaking about 400 stu
dents from the University who were
on the grounds, formed a line OF
march. followed by the Boy Scouts
and school children. which presented
most interesting sight.
We should like very much to give
detailed write up of the program
but for the lack of help, and being al
ready late, we cannot.

LEARNED FROM GOLF EXPERT
Fred Luderus, Who Had Habit Of STEP
ping Forward at Plate, Is Shown
Error of his Ways.

It is said that Fred Luderus, one of
the most dangerous hitters in the Ma
tional league, really became an effec-
tive batter through the instructions of
a golf expert.
This golf expert was in the city
where the Phillies were training. He
noticed that Luderus had q tendency to
step forward and throw his body in
front of the plate as he prepared to
swing at the ball. Now to a golfer
that was a fatal weakness. The good
golfer always throws his body into the
swing. It Is certain that If the body
goes forward first the only power re-
naming in the swing is that of the
crrls alone.
This expert noted that when Luderus
net the ball there was no force to the
blow and easy grounders trickled off
his bat. He coached Luderus on his
stance, as he called 1t, and explained
the necessity Of getting the force be-
hind the blow. Luderus tried 1t and
after time began to belt the ball with
terrific force. And any big league play
er will tell you now that Luderus GER
tainly has wallop.

"sCENT CAPS" FOR THE HAIR
Locks May Be Perfumed by Wearing
the Little Head Covering One ;,
Night q Week. ,eI

Any woman may add dainty and
completing touch to the toilet by per-
fuming the hair and may accomplish
1t with little or no expense. But Of
two thifigs she must be very sure, and
they are that the perfume Is very
delicate and that conflicting scents
are never used.
If one prefers to use a liquid, good
results are obtained by spraying the
hair, after it has been shampooed and
while 1t Is loosely hanging, with an
atomiZer.
Or the perfume may be rubbed into
the palms Of the hand or upon the
or brushed Immediately over the head.
But the best result Is achieved by
wearing "scent caps" for they cover
the hair and also protect 1t from un-
welcome snarls. All that Is needed is
a circular cloth large enough to keep
the hair free and allow circulation Of
air. It may be fitted to the head by
an elastic, but not too tight a one, or
the circulation will be stopped. Silk
and silkoline are the best materials,
for they are so sheer An interlining
Is necessary, and this may be Of the
thinnest cashmere, for that holds the
odor well. Between the inner and out.
er caps sprinkle any kind Of sachet
you may desire. Orris root Is sweet
and lasting, but never cloying. Thor
oupblv HHuSh md cOmh tha hair NJ
night and braid 1t loosely. Then don
the light little cap one night week.
The hair will acquire delicate scent.
Tiny sachet pads sewed into ones
hats take little time and trouble to
arrange, and they help the hair to re-
tain the sweetness which exposure to
the air might otherwise destroy.

SOMETHING NEW IN COLLARS
Made Of ceIIuIoid Has Recently
Been Introduced.

The separate starched collar was
invented about ninety-two years ago
by the wife Of blacksmith living at
Troy, N. Y, who made one for her
husband. Since then 1t has grown in
popularity until there is probably no.
body who has not worn starched
collar at some time or other. Now
it's popularity is on the decline again,
partly on the score of comfort and
partly as result of the war.
The crux of the matter does not
lie with the collar itself, though that
is made from material which is use
full for bandages. It's the starch that
is to be saved-valuable foodstuff that
ought not to be wasted on collars,
says Popular Science Monthly.
A permanently stiffened collar is
being introduced which is not cellu-
loid, but is a regular fabric collar
treated with kind Of varnish that
makes 1t possible to clean it under the
tap or with a damp cloth. Automo-
bilists should be among those who ap-
preciate this new fabric, for, in spite
Of road dust, it Is always possible to
'feel clean" in clean collar. A col
lar Of this kind will last from two
weeks to a month.

Chinese Onnens.

The Chinese people never associate
dreams with lobster salad. Their art
ist represents dreams pictorially by
means Of spiral or curl, as of vapor,
proceeding from the dreamer's head
and broadening out until large enough
to receive the figures which enter into
and compose the dream.
They believe that gorillas and bears
are Omens Of sons, and serpents and
snakes of daughters. (The ladies have
Grandma Eve to thank for that) If
you dream Of dwarf, things will not
60 well; your enterprise will stick!
halfway and you will be laughing
stock to all; If Of sweet perfume, you
will meet women and girls; of bam-
boos. you will become a recluse; Of
combs, there will be separation; Of
willows, you will shortly travel, and IL
you dream Of broken bod some III
will befall your wife.

How to Dress for Rainy Days.

If we give but few minutes to the
selection Of our clothes for rainy days,
we can add with our dress much Of the
warmth and cheerfulness that Is lack
ing In nature. Bright-colored dresses
are appropriate and give a pleasant
note to otherwise gloomy surround
ings.
If one must 60 outside Of the home
in rainy weather, high shoes with rub
bers, a short dark skirt which does
not soil easily with rain and mud, q
raincoat, rain hat and dark gloves
should be worn. However, bright
colored tie or blouse will give warm
not to the costume when the wraps are
removed. Red is q color Of warmth
and looks well on rainy days. Golden
brown, purple and bright shades of
blue and green are cheerful colors.
Dull grays, blues and green's should be
worn only on bright days. Light ma
terials should be saved for warm, sun
ny weather or evening wear.-Farm
