MRS. RODWELL DENIES
DISLOYALTY CHARGE

Mrs. W. W. Rodwell, teacher of the
East Barrett school and for several
years prominent in civic and club
women's affairs, who has been charged
by neighbors with statements border
ing on pacihsm and pro-Germanism,
denies the charges. An investigation
OF the case was recently held by the
Barrett school board.
The hearing was called by me, d"
says Mrs. Rodwell II set the date
and asked for Mr.. Gibson, county su-
perintendent, to be present. During
the hearing all the points mentioned
were either denied or explained, as in
some cases the statements had been
taken from their setting, and gave a
wrong impression.
Some of the larger pupils clapped
over an item in Current Events to the
effect that l3, 600 Germans were killed
in drive. said: Let's not clap
over people dead. We will do every
thing we can to win, but let us re-
member there are little children at

ers, just as we would, and let's not
clap when they are dead
And | most emphatically deny ever
having stated that Belgium should
NOT have opposed the Germans in
their advance across their territory.
At the time Greece allowed an army
to pass through her territory, | said
that by so doing Greece had saved her
self and that Belgium might have been
saved the same way had it not been
for her treaty. | said that Belgium
should have known that she could not
conquer that great army by firing on
the Germans while they slept or were
off their guard
"Also at this hearing the board stat
ed that was not dismissed that the
question Of keeping the school open
next year would be settled by vote of
the district at the annual meeting,
June II, and that nothing would be
done regarding the matter at that
time.
Mrs. Rodwell processes absolute 10y
atty to America. She admits, how
ever, that she has criticised England.
Mrs. Rodwell says her mother, who
now resides at Vancouver, Wash, she
thinks is the only surviving Civil war
army nurse on the Pacific coast.

Buttermilk a Popular Beverage

Becaus of the popularity of butter
milk as summertime beverage, it has
become necessary to apply Hoover rules
and limit the supply to each patron at
the creamey. With his supply running
short Tuesday, and host of steady
customers yet to hear from, Manager
Black limited the sales to each to a
half gallon.
Formerly buttermilk from the cream
cry was sold to ranchers almost exclu-
sively for pig food. The hogs. how
ever, get none of it now.

ALI GRATIN SETS,

Either the bride to be or the week. end hostess will appreciate half a dozen au gratin dishes or white heat proof china with silver plated frames, the set packed in a satin lined box,
 There are so many ways of using au gratin dishes and served in this alluring way many a leftover becomes a dainty de luxe or in other words, a delicious entree fit for a special course at a formal luncheon.
 Creamed salmon or any creamed fish, macoroni and cheese, oysters scalloped with cracker crumbs. welsh rarebit, sweetbread and mushrooms, chopped veal in bechamel sauce dozens of things can be served eco- nomically in the pretty little au gratin dishes which make a trif1e seem a lot, when the entree is brought in as a separate course be- tween hot bouillon and salad courses
 The heat proof china receptacles can be set in the oven without in- jury and ones entree course may be prepared early in the morning and popped into the oven just before ths luncheon guests arrive.

CHRISTIANE PICKER.

Christiane Flicker, the inventor of the tambour needle, was born in November, 1769. and was the daugh- ter of the controller of the mines at Eibenstock, in Saxony. She was led to the invention by her love for em- broidering and her desire to trace raised figures, by means of a thread and needle, upon the cloth. The in- vention has been of great use to the poor women in Saxony, to whom 1t became a fruitful source of employ ment The inventor. however, like Fulton, gained nothing through her invention except prospect of a small sum of money, given her by Queen Amalie Augusta. She died in 1911, the wife of Christian Flicker, pastor of Eibenstock.

By ELOISE HARRINGTON :

thoroughly pat-clled by the enemy, and there seemed not the remotest chance that a messenger could get through the lines with the urgent message to Gen. Sumter. Capture was an absolute certainty.
 Nevertheless. Emily Geiger inter viewed Gen. Greene repeatedly, in- sisting that he entrust her with the message. She was sure that she could accomplish what one of his own soldiers couldn't do.
 'sI have a fleet horse,'' she said. "I broke and trained him myself. I know the country, and I'm sure I can get through"
 Gen. Greene attempted to fright en Emily Geiger by assuring her that not only would she be caught, but that she would be hanged as a spy as soon as captured. and her sacrifice would be to no Tvail. But nothing could daunt her courageous spirit What cared she for the exposure to which she put her own life if there was the slightest chance that her risk you'd enable re-enforcements to come and so save the lives of hun dreds of brave men?
 Finally she persuaded the general | to give her the assignment. She | dashed off blindly on her mfssiorr F'Ic the first day of her journey she safe iy eiuded the watchful sentries sprinkled about the countryside. On the second day, however, good for tune deserted her.
 | She was captured, and was impris- l oned in an old farmhouse while the soldiers went off to get a woman who would search her. They remain. ed away only few moments, but in that short time Eimly's ingenuity had worked. Hastily she tore up the message from Gen. Greene, and In order that nothing suspicious might | be found in the room she swallowed l the bits of paper
 Immediately afterward a woman came into the room. This woman searched Emily Geiger, butAhad to re- port that the suspect carried no pa pers or messages of any military value whatsoever. Emily Geiger thereUpon was released and allowed to go her way.
 Before nightfa1l she reached Gen. Sumter's camp and gave him the | message verbally. As a result, re- endorsements were quickly rushed to Gen. Greene, and the Americans suc- ceeded in defeating the enemy.
 Then after performing this piece of heroism, Emily Geiger quiteiy married and settled down and lived | happily ever after.

WHEN USING PERFUME.

So many women use perfumes, but so few use it inteIligently. There are just a few simple rules about it's use that make all the difference in the world. In the first place, a certain odor should be chosen and adhered to- It must be individual and wholly characteristic to the tye of person who is using it, for strange as it may sound, certain scents suggest certain personalities. For instance a lilac odor or light bouquet odor imme- diately suggests a dainty, fair-haired creature, while the sweet, rather heavy scent of rose perfume is always suggestive of brunette type.
 The woman who really knows uses extract very sparingly and emphasizes sachet, and to some extent toilet water, which should be applied after the bath. The sachet should be sprinkled delicately through the nu- merous drawers and boxes holding the various articles of feminine ap- parel. Attractive little bags of satin or cretonne should be placed in the bottom of dressing table drawers, and the sachet renewed at intervals. Skirt and dress hangers should be padded with the little sachet bags. Some women even scent their shoe trees to be placed in dainty evening slip pers.
 There are different ways of apply | ing perfume. Some women scent the lining of their pocketbooks, others put discreet drop or two on the rib bon band of their wrist watch. French women scent the tips of their ears, and their lips, but the women of good taste never apply scent to the front of a blouse or frock. Remem- Der that the art of perfumery is a study of subletry.

Women are very often preferred to men as spies and military messen- gers, and they frequently have shown themselves far superior for several reasons.
 Woman's ingenuity has helped her devise curious means of accomplish ing her purposes when the practical common sense of men might influence them to abandon an apparently hope less cause. Another factor that has helped women to succeed in military communication is the fact that her sex protects her from the rough treatment which masculine spy or messenger might receive.
 Women spies were handled lenient- ly in the revolution and civil wars by both American and British. Cruel treatment of women military pris- oners mas been pre-eminently a Teu- tonic custom developed in the pres ent terrible struggle.
 Among the most interesting of the several ingenious women who as- sisted our army in the early days of the republic was Emily Geiger. In some way she learned that it was

E'0ry few wonien realize how much the neckline affects the appearance of the entire costume. No matter how stunning Is the draping of the waist or skirt if the neckline is poor the whole effect is sure to be spoiled.
 Yet we see women with thin and scrawny necks wearing the sharp ly pointed V-collars and stout wom- en wearing square Dutch yokes from which plump necks emerge, looking even plumper than nature meant them to appear.
 When Miss Shepard tried on the sheer Georgette frock shown here, the first thing that si'uck by eye was the singular good taste of the neckline. Although Miss Shepari might be called a perfect 36," nev- ertheless her neck is particularly try ing. Without being long it Is rather thin, with many hollows, and there is a perfectly visible knob at the back of her neck. Consequently, 1t is rather difficult to fit her with a low-cut gown, because of a Unbecom- ing neckline. This frock, however, is cunningly designed.
 It is of red and white cross-bar Georgette, finishing high up at the back of the neck, and has a gather ed tucker around the neck and shoul- ders, ending in front at the waist. The Georgette shows in the small square in front, and produces a sort of horseshoe-shaped neck.
 This kind of neckline, I observe, is always becoming to the thin woman or any one with hoG1ows around the throat. It produces a square effect that makes neck and shoulder line seem almost chubby.
 The distinguishing touoA to this frock is the huge butterfly bow of self-material which finishes the belt at the side. The long streamer at the end of the bow addsA very grace ful touch to the costume. The col lar and cuffs are edged with tiny ruff fles, which round out the lines to neck and wrist.
 This frock is especially suitable for the slender woman, partly because of it's broad flowing draperies and also because of the material used. Cross-bar Georgette seems to be fa- vorite summer fabric for hot wealth CT. It ssoft and fluffy without clinging to the figure, and although the pattern is by no means conspicu- ous, nevertheless it gives roundness

HOW TO DYE CLOTH.

As general rule, extremely heavy goods is best sent to the dyer. This is because of the difficulty of handling the goods when wet and of securing an even color throughout. Remem- Der that silk always takes a dye darker than cotton. In dyeing woolen goods many housewives fail because the wool contains a certain percent age of cotton, the account of which Is unknown to them, and consequently the strength of their dye is not pro- portioned correctly.
 In laundering silks dip them in a final water to which c little dye the color of the material has been added and they will not show signs of fad ing.
 Various makers of dyes use differ ent substances to set the dyes with certain Colors. These substances are common table salt, vinegar and am- monia, all of which may be used, but | the results vary according to the color
 of the dye and the material. One experienced housewife said | that the lavenders and browns had | for her proved the most satisfactory | AA1S ID DeSdu0e OL the neu-
 tral character of these colors and the 1 fact that they combine so well with
