Jerry Muskrat hardly had to swim at
all in that current which swept from
the Rig River out over the Green
Meadows. and a great load fell from
him. He had been so fearful. SO hope
less. so sure that he would be swept
away on the flood of TIE Big River il
he left the tree in which he had found
safety that he bad been unable to see
clearly or to think clearly. 1t was Mrs.
OuaCk Who had shown him that'current
sweeping back over the Green Meadows.
and now with Mrs. Quack swimming on
one side of him and Mr.. Quack swim
ming on the other side of him Jerry
was nothing if not light-hearted.
AS he got farther and farther away
from the Big River the current which
carried him along grew less and less.
there was no current to amount
to anything. Jerry began to use his
tail for oil it was worth. You know he
uses his tail a good deal like the pro-
peller of a steamer to drive him through
the water. After awhile he became
tired and, coming to a log floating. on
the water, he scrambled up on it to rest.

and this. with the fear which had had
possession of him for so long. and then

Substitute for a Jacket.

This Peter Thompson blouse has been
adopted as substitute for a short
jacket by not only the young women,
but those who are older and have young
figures. In these days of rushing an
xfety. of busy hours, of fast moving
activities, women are sometimes glad
to be rid of the annoyance of the sepa-
rate blouse, which a jacket demands.
The laundry question has also become
important The freshness demanded in
a white blouse has become a nuisance.
Therefore, the bodice and jacket in one
which have good lines and obviate the
necessity for a waist make a strong
appeal.
The sketch shows a suit which COM
bines separate skirt and a de luxe
MILDLY blouse. The skirt itself Is OF
biscuit-colored crepe pleated in panels
at the side, and the substitute fors a
jacket is of green silk crepe, that dark
sparkling green that the house OF Cal
lot has introduced as first choice color
for street suits. The blouse is cut of
at the hip line and rolled upward into
cuff that is faced with the skirt fab
ric. The long, comfortable sleeves are
rolled up above a small, f1aring cuff OF
the biscuit-colored crepe. The large
rose, which is used as a substitute fol-
the sailors cravat. is heavily 'embroid.
cred in biscuit-colored silk.

Return Of the MILDLY Blouse.

As early as January there was q
tendency on this side of>the water to
introduce the kind Of garment which
we once called the Peter Thompson.
This was invented. you may remember,
by an old sailor in Philadelphia, who
fashioned them of heavy white duck,
stitched them strongly and soundly
and turned them out for thousands Of
children. AS time went on, they moved
into the channel of sport clothes and
became the regulation garment for all
manner of athletic games.
Their recrudescence shows them In
more ornate form. They were first
introduced in January. in the form of
white flannel for Palm Beach, and they
were trimmed with canary colored
wooden threads arranged in a long
darning stitch and turned up at the
hem in a series Of pockets that would
hold tennis or golf balls.
Then they appeared in velveteeen for
street wear, and in Chinese and Jap
anese embroidery for house wear, with
skirts of crepe de chine or pleated
satin. They fitted into the scheme of
fashions in such an admirable manner
that the dressmakers played them up
in variety of fabrics and offered them
as suitable for occasions where they
should never have been worn.
They have that waistleSs line which
all women seem proud to exploit these
days. They are easy fitting, careless
ly informal, quite Negligent at the
neck. and yet they tighten themselves
around the hips to suggest grace and

HUNT EVIDENCE ON
WHICH TO NAB
Stacker
AUTHORITIES HAVE EYES ON
ANOTHER YOUNG MAN WHO
DID NOT REGISTER
WANT DATE OF HIS BIRTH
Seek Complete Information Before
Acting-Decide No Stacker
Shall Escape Here

Authorities are investigating the re.
port that a young man of CONSUMPTION
age in Idaho county failed to register
for the selective draft, on June 5, of
last year The young man is said to
have reached the age Of 81 years dur
ing the last week of May, 1917, but
did not register in accordance with the
federal draft law.
While the authorities probing the
situation have every reason to believe
that the young man s 21st birthday
anniversary occurred in May, they are
going to the bottom of the situation
before giving out the young man s
name, or making an arrest in the case.
The officers are trying to find the
birth record of the young man, in order
to prove beyond a doubt that he was
p at the time of the national regis
tration. They believe that record
of the lads birth can be found, and
they only are awaiting the time when
they procure this evidence, before the
arrest.
Coming closely on the heels of the
arrest of Anton Reidhaar, held under
$4,000 bonds for failure to register.
the arrest of the second young man
in Idaho county for failure to comply
with the draft law would put more
feathers in the hats of the men who |
are determined to round up all slack |
ers in this section of Idaho.
