 Mrs. HaizIip Resigns.
 An event of regret to the members of the executive committee and other Red Cross frnembers Familiar with her work, was the resignation of Mrs. Millie Haizlip, who has been in charge of the sewing room since it's establishment. Mrs. Haizlip plans to 80 to New Hampshire, to make her home with her son-in]aw and daughter, Capt. and Mrs. Furl1an Me- Cammon. Mrs w. D. Jones, Mrs. Haizlip and Mrs. X. w.

Fresh Greens for the Canary.

Canartes are very fond of lettuce, celery tops and other young and ten. der greens, as all birdlovers know. When the birdman tells us we must not give these things to our pets too frequently the temptation to go con- trary to advice is strong. for we sym. pathize keenly. An accident showed me the way to grutify our pets without harm to them, as experience has proven. Some months since, a little birdseed was spilled on the earth in q large tub containing rubber plant Soon these seeds spr'uted, hgd we hit upon the idea of removing the bottor2 from the cage and setting 1t over the young sprouts. The joy the canaries found in their greens, and the conse. Quent discovery tbat the birds were really gaining in health and song con. vinced us that box of sprouting bird- seed was the thing to keep on hand for them.-Exchange.

Army Eagles of Napoleon.

Before Napoleon's time 1t had been the custom Tor armies to carry huge, unwieldy flags mounted on poles which, while they afforded rallying point for their corps, also drew the en. emy's fire. Napoleon revived the an. cient symbol of the Caesars. The Ma poleonic eagle itself was s inches in height and 9 inches across the wings. It stood on brass block inches square and weighed three and half pounds. Modern colors, cumbersome as they are, are as nothing compared to the old ones, which were as diff. cult to hide as the big drum.

Name Fjts the Tree.

The largest tree in Japan has name which seems to fit it's size-cercldi- phyllum japonfcum. In its native land this tree grows nearly 100 feet high and produces from the crown cluster of stems With total circumference of 50 feet or more. A specimen of this tree now growing in the arboretum Is about thirty years old and has proved perfectly hardy. It is very attractive In the autumn, when the leaves change their color to clear yellow.

Such a Namel

A college professor in California has discovered Il mineral hitherto unknown to science. 1~hich he has called "crest. moreite," because 1t was found at Crestmore. We are told by way of description, says the Providence Bu!- letin, that 1t is "a new hydrous basic of orthosilicate, containing small amounts of other oxides ill place of silica," which leaves us altogether In the dark as to whether We shall soon be using crestmoreite as an improved stovspspe material ar wearing 1t as a watch charm.

Advice to GirIs.

Little girl, the best thing for you to do is to get the idea out of your head that you can marry that wild boy and reform him. That boys mother is old CT than you and she has had more ex- perience, and if her older years of teaching, pleading and prayer have not brought results, you have no job that an amateur can do cut out for you. Forget all about him, and you will be happier in the long run. It often takes dynamite, stump puller and dry cleaning on top of that to weed Cut wild oats.-Emporia Gazette.

Evolution Of the Almond.

One would scarcely suspect the al- mond of ever being anything else than q nut. Outside the shell Is a thin coating of green, leathery pulp, too bit ter to eat and pot mucn more inviting than the husk of hazelnut. Yet, within historical times, selection and cultivation have modified the almond into luscious fruit--the peach.

pressed in to Stay The sleeves are of the serge set into q plain underbodice, and divided below the elbow, where the fairly full upper sleeve is joined to q
 close fitting long forearm portion. The girdle is of black satin and extends
 about the sides and back, where il is knottad and falls ill long ends, finished with balls fashioned of the satin. Sou tache braid and needlework make up the handsome and unusual dccoratiOn An embroidered linen collar prOclaims its loyalty to this model with em-
 broidered ncedlework motifs matching those that appear on the bodice and sleeves.
 The frock of georgette crepe is belt
 ed at the waist with a lighter color in crepe than is used for the dress. The collar and bands at the sides of the bodice are of this light crepe and the braid used for decorating the panel at the front of the skirt, and the bodice match 1t in color. In spite of it's sheer ness and softness georgette crepe proves to be fabric of considerable strength, not nearly as fragile as 1t looks.

There are other gowns that are

and some Of them display too much

should no more play with it, carelcssly

There are ways OF placing red on a
blue gown that give distinction to the
combination, and there are other way'
no matter how good the workmanship
may be, that destroy the effect as
though one had taken up a brush Of
wet paint and thrown it at a canvas
So, whatever you do with red. do if
