A one-piece frock is always needed
for general wear, and this one fills the
bill. 1t is of plaid veours and is
practical and smart. Collar and cuffs
of plain cloth give all the contrast that
Is necessary. A little vest of white
satin makes its becomingness certain.

water undrinkable f?

It is however a fact, and one
thoroughly demonstrated wher-
ever a sewerage and water sys-
tenn has been installed, and it is
very easy to understand.
In digging into the streets in
order to connect with either
sewer or water mains the roots
Of the trees are sure to be cut, and
these will rot in the ground and
contaminate all surface and well
water, until it is unfit for drink
ing purposes.
The contamination from elm
roots is, Of course, the worst, but
this idea also applies to any tree
roots.
This feature has probably not
been given any attention by most
of the people, but they will be
faced with it very soon, if they
have not already had their we'll
water affected. It is said that
many of the wells in otwn are
even now unfit for drinking pur-
poses, and there is probably rea-
son for this assertion. One thing
is very certain, all wells will be
affected very soon and it would
be well for all landlords and own
ers Of house property to consider
seriously the question Of attach
ing the water mains while the
weather is suitable.

WHAT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW

That large cash salaries are
paid to families Of soldiers by
Uncle Sam every month.
That married men can volun-
teer in the American regular
army, and few people know that
Uncle Sam will take care Of thier
families while they are away.
That if the soldier allots ff-
teen dollars Of his thirty dollars
monthly pay to his wife the gov
eminent gives her another fifteen
dollars month.
If wife has one child she gets
$40; if two she gets $47 so; if
three $3.50; if four $3.50; if
five $82.5O, and if six children
gets $4,000 per month.
Besides this the husband-the
soldier-Gets $500 per month,
which is all he ought to spend as
he gets his board, clothes, doctor
bill, heat and light free.
The above is Uncle Sam s
method Of looking after her sold
iers, which no other country has
done.

'KaiSoT'S Son Receives But SCaDt Courtesy During "SojOurn"

Amsterdam, Nov. 25.-Monterland, a hamlet consisting Of a score of small farmsteads and fisherman's- huts on the bleak, lonely Island of iWerin- gen, which is situated some distance \ from the Dutch naval station at fielder, is the home assigned to the Yinterned former German Crown Prince. He will live in the local pas tors two -storied residence which has been leased furnished for six months. The house, which is without the slightest attraction, is off the beaten track and is hardly ever visited by strangers. The hamlet itself is in 'habited for the most part by mus sel fishermen, who after their exper- Iiences with U. boats during the war, iview the guests advent, which was
 expected Friday, with anything but favor.
 The sole communication between pthe Island Of Wieringen and the main land is a small steamer which carries mail and makes two trips daily.
 To the furnishings of the parson- Thge, which are very simple, there have been added a small billiard table and q bath. Adjoining, in a Bible class

 loneHer retreat could hardly be imagined.
 When the former German Crown Prince arrived at the Zuyder Zee fishing town of Enk]1uyzen on his way to Wonderland he received a different welcome than he encountered else where in Holland.
 As he descended from the railway car With Q swaggering gait and wear ing a fur coat, howis of eXecration arose from the thousands gathered outside the station gates The out burst of hostility seemed to perturb him somewhat.
 The government yacht which was to have taken the former Crown Prince to the Island of Wieringen grounded in a fog. A little tugboat was substituted. Affecting indiffer- ence, the former Grown Prince step ped on the gangway and lit a cigar cite. The tug cast loose imm ediate- ly and disappeared in the fog amid the angry shouts of the populace.

REDWOODS WIN OVER
 EMPIRES; SCORE l4-7
Yictors Take Championship
 LaurelS For Second Time

Sunday afternoon, at the Newing- ton Road grounds, the Redwoods of this city succeeded in winning the city championship for the second consecutive year defeating the Elm pires, 14 to 7. All throughout the game, the Empires were smothered under heavy harrage of line plunges and trick plays.
 Captain Smith won the toss and chose to receive the kick. The ball was kicked off side on the Redwoods' 70 yard line. Several attempts of the Redwoods team failed, and on the third down, the Redwoods lost the ball on their own 45 yard line through a tumble. The RedwoodS line proved a stumbling block to the aspirations of the Empires, who punted to the Redwoods on their 20 yard line. In a series of line plunges the Redwoods carried the ball from their own 20 yard line to the Empires 40 yard line where the period ended. Through a tumble the Redwoods lost the ball on the Empires 30 yard line. By a neat forward pass, theb all was carried to the middle of the field by the Empire left end. An attempt to kick a field goal proved futile. The first half ended without either side scoring. At
 
 liant kick by Griffin placed the ball on the Empires 10 yard line. After several attempts to buck the Redwood line, the ball was punted out to the Umpire 40 yard line. Then came the Redwoods' real offensive, and the Empire line crumbled before it. Tn two plays, the Redwoods carried the ball over for the first score of the game, and Cor man kicked the goal. The Redwoods then kicked to the Empire goal line, nearly placing the ball between the posts. The end of the third period found the Rerwoods in possession of the ball on the Empire one yard line. At the start of the fourth period, the ball was ca-rreid over by T. German of the Redwoods for the second score of the game. The goal was kicked by German. The Redwoods then kicked to the Empire goal line, nearly placing he ball between the posts. The end of the third period the ball on the Empire one yard line. who ran the ball back 20 yards. Through a series of forward passes, the ball was carried to the Redwood 25 yard line, where a heavy penalty placed the ball on the Redwood 10 yard line. The crowd then surged on the field, and plays were almost i'm possible. With a minute and a half to ply J. Steffnick went over for the first score of the Empires. The game ended with the kicking of the goal. The lineup of both teams follows: Empires Redwoods Joe. Brennecke Robertson Stabert Klbourne and Robertson
