SALVATION ARMY DOING
GOOD WORK THIS WINTER

During the recent storms and the
severe weather the Salvation Army
Industrial home. located on the cor
ner Of Hill and Colfax SITS, has been
"a haven for many Of the needy ones
in the city. In fact, the place has
been taxed to the limit and they arc
in great need of bedding, mattresses,
cumforters and clothing.
The Salvation army is doing
great work in South Bend A large
number Of men are sent out on
temporary work every week and
many are found permanent employ
ment 10 pull them through the win

home for help of every kind during
this hard winter and none have been
turned away. Meals are given them
and they are supplied with groceries.
No sober man is ever turned away
or refused a hot cup of coffee.
This branch also sends magazines
to the American forces in France,
so if there are any magazines that
can be given to add 70 the box that

FILE TAX RETURN IF
EXEMPTED OR NOT

Every man who is making So
600 a year or more will have to file
an income tax return. even though
he is allowed exemptions which
will exempt him from paying any
tax Single men who are making
$1,000 or more must file returns
also, even though they too may have
exemptions which will put them out
of the tax-paying class. All ex-
emptions, other than the $1,000 eX-
emptiOn OF a married man, must
be reported. so that the authorities
may verify the facts"
misunderstanding OF the above re-
quirements is blamed by John c.
Hiss, deputy revenue collector, for
the fact that there are still off of
the calculated number of income
tax payers who have not yet put in
their appearance at the local rev.
enue office.
They must make the return or
they will be subject to heavy penal
ties" he said Thursday. 1t is up
to the individual to come to Uncle
Sam, and not for the government
to seek out the individual"
Mr.. Hiss Will be in the city for a
few days, TO assist those who may
encounter trouble in filling out their
returns, and he advises that as
many as possible come TO the rev.
enue Office in the postOffice build
ing within the next day or two, that
their questions may be answered

ON MAIZE ALONE
British Officers Report Worst
Effects Noted on Newly
Born Children.

PETROGRAD, wednesday, Jan.
23.-British officers who have made
a thorough investigation of condi-
tons in RCumania returned 70
Petrograd Wednesday and gave an
account OF the food situation there.
They said Roumanian peasant wom-
en- have been almost starving for
months or existing solely on maize.
The effect Is shown particularly
among newly born children, many
OF whom are deformed.
The effect of starvation on future
generations is causing more concern
10 the officials than the present state
of affairs. The Roumanians have
sufficient maize 10 feed the peasant
population until May. but this diet
by itself viii not give proper sus-
tenance.
Notwithstanding this and other
privations the Roumanian army is
maintaining discipline. Information
from authoritative sources emDhat-
ically contradicts rumors of any pro-
nounced movement against King
Ferdinand. Ii is declared that only
the smallest minority seeks to over
throw the government.
Help Russ DemObilize.
Roumanian troops are aiding the
Russian commander in the gradual
rehabilitation of the Russian army
on the Roumanian front. The Rou-
manians are on guard against ma
rauding bands of Russian soldiers,
insisting that all give up their arms
before being released from their
units. A battle occurred four miles
from Jassy between Ukranian and
bolshevih forces. 1t lasted fo-
eight days. The bolsheviki seized
the important railway junction OF
HarkOv.
Owing to happenings such as
these it is very difficult to send food
10 Roumania, or TO the Ukranian
cities and the western and north
ern Russian fronts. Some food Is
now moving from Ukraine to north
Russia by special agreement. but
transportation difficulties are grow
ing.
Increased sentiment in favor of
the bolsheviki is reported in Ukraine
although the bOlsheviki there are
not connected officially with those
of Petrograd.

Hats for Early Spring-Or Now.

We used to wait for the arrival Of
spring or for signs that it was within
hailing distance before we clothed our
heads in hats that take no thought Of
winter, even in belOw-zero weather
But new order of things has come to
pass and now we indulge ourselves in
hats that herald the spring and go out
to meet it while il is yet afar off-in
Northern climates. They are not spring
hats and they are not winter hats.
They are cheerful hats with a thought
of summer in them, but substantial
enough to brave the SHOWS of late win
ter.
Here are three Of these smart hats
that are minded to turn their allegi-
nnce from winter to spring and pin
their faith to its coming soon. They
have satin crowns and brims of a
braid which is variously called "che-
MILE" Caterpillar" and carpet" braid.
Caterpillar" fits 1t best. 1t is fuzzy,
substantial looking and soft braid that
looks wonderfully well with satin. 1t
is shown in all the lovely and soft
spring colors. These hats are usually
faced with crepe georgette, and their
trimmings are glazed or lacquered
flowers and fruits.
Braids that have heretofore been
used for spring-summer hats are
brought into service for the demisea-

son by covering them with hard
lacquer which gives them a high, hard
luster or polish. For February and
March very bright red hats-a cherry
red-are made of these braids. Cher
ries are favorite trimming for them,
too. Then there are small all black
turbans made of ''patent leafher'-
that is millinery patent leather in the
form of braid or of millinery braids
lacquered or vanished into the most
lustrous surfaces. These small. smart.
brilliant hats are for any cline md
look quite equal to meeting any emer-
gency. Nearly always they are in all
black, trimmed with small ribbon orna-
ments or little wings. These are also
lacquered and will defy the strongest
March wind that blows to disarrange d
single feather in them.

Fabrics and Afternoon Frocks.

gathered into an underpetticOat of SIX
at the bottom. Over it Russian blouse
reaffirms its always good style. 1t IL
handsomely braided in design made
up OF squares with soutache braid in
the same color as the crepe. The blouse
has two small pockets set on with a
row Of little satin-covered buttons at
each side and draped collar Of satin
joined by the same effective means to
the crepe. The sleeves are plain, far
ing at the wrist. where there is a wide
band formed by the braided pattern.
A very long girdle of satin is wrapped
twice about the waist and looped over
at the front The ends are finished
and weighted with satin-covered orna-
ments.
Many Of the new frocks Of this
character show plain and plaid taffeta
in combination, with crepe georgette
sleeves matching the plain silk in col
or. The Bingham plaids In taffeta are
effectively made up In this way. Plain
georgette with borders Of plaid satin
and plain fabrics trimmed with pin
tucks in cross-bar effects are among
the popular combinations.
The Oakley herald. [volume] (Oakley, Idaho) 1908-1961, 1918-04-19

Designers appear to have looked
over the lineup of spring fabrics for
afternoon frocks and to have come to
some conclusions in common Await
Ing their critical and speculative eyes
were printed foulards and taffetas in
dgured and plaid patterns, voiles and
organdies-plain, striped and plaid !;
crepe de chine, and other crepes-and,
above all-crepe georgette. Colors and
color combinations were lovely. 1t Is
no wonder that, having viewed them,
they found the material a challenge to
their genius. Fabric and design seem
to be perfectly suited to each other In
the new frocks for afternoon wear
