Ornamental Lamp-Posts
Add to Attractiveness
OF the Up-to- o-Date City

There Is no feature OF municipal
equipment that adds more to the at
trnctlveness Of city's appearance
than do ornamental street lamp-pOsts
of artistic and appropriate design. Just
ms the effectiveness or Interior decOrn-
tions and furnishings depend In n large
measure upon lighting fixtures, so the
beauty Of the street can be enhanced
or marred by Its lights. In each case
n satisfactory solution Of the lighting
problem consists not only in supplying
sufficient illumination but also in pro-
vldlng lighting equipment that harmon
lies with Its surroundings and pos
scsses n beauty Of its own. The old
time lamp-post In vogue before the
days OF electricity, writes Thomas j..
Davis, In the House Beautiful, fulfilled
the second Of these conditions, but not
the first; for, although the post itself
was often a work Of art, It's feeble oil
or gas flame seldom was equal to the
task OF Illuminating the street. On
the other hand, the modern overhead
are lamp gives fairly satisfactory
light, but the unsightly poles. ropes,
wires and other equipment can scarce
ly be called beautiful. Now comes the
ornamental street lamp-post, which
combines the beauty of one OF It's pre-
decessOrs and the utility Of the other.

II, because these are WIr-times, or
for other reasons, the bride makes up
nor mind to have only Il simple we'd
ding, her first step to that end will be
the ordering of Il simple wedding gown.
Especially II her wedding ceremony Is
to take place within the walls of her
home, instead Of in the church, must
she consider what will harmOnzc best
with the home rs II background. Long
trains and wells and elaborate wedding
gowns need spacious surroundings.
Where these are lacking the simpler
gown leaves the best memories Of n
pretty wedding,
The bride can foregO statelincsS
with good grace when she recalls all
the shlmmcring and airy fabrics that
may be chosen to make II wedding
gown OF whatever degree of formality.
There are those misty materials like
fine vOlle, net, organdle, ge0rgettc, ana
lace all to be made over an undcrdresS
of silk or satin, for these are the terms
in which the wedding gown Is eX-
pressed, whatever It's style. And then
there Is the veil, always of mnlines or
lace, which may be draped In so many
ways that every bride may depend up
on It to add to her charm.

In making their plans to shoot mi
gratory waterfowl, hunters will do
well to note the dates Of open seasons
under both federal and state laws, ac-
cOrdlng to the United States depart
ment of agriculture. There Is confu-
sion in the minds of some sportsmen In
regard to the opening Of the season
when the dates conflict under state
and federal laws.
The federal law and regulations limit
the seasons before and after which no
one may shoot these birds. II state
law opens the season later or closes
II earlier than the dates prescribed by
the federal regulations, the season In
that state is Just so much further
shortened. Special attention is called
to the fact that the federal regulations
do not authorize anyone to hunt or kill
migratory birds contrary to the state
law.
In certain states, as for example,
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
lucky, Missouri and South Dakota, the
season for shooting migratory water
fowl under the state law would open
prior to the date OF opening under the
federal regulations were II not for the
fact that the federal regulations super

Colorado Musician Asserts
Head Measurements Certain
Method Of Picking Singers

A method OF testing the ability of
any person to sing, without seeing him
or even hearing him, has been devised
by Theophllus Fitz Of Los Angeles, re
Gently director of music In the State
Teachers College Of Colorado. This
method, which Professor Fltz says Is
his Contribution to science" Is based
upon series of measurements of the
head cavities that he declares he has
worked down TO exact mathematics.
He does not find II necessary to see,
touch or hear the subject, as his work,
which he terms 'volce diagnosis" has
become as definite to him as mnthe-
MATES. All he asks Is that certain
measurements Of the head be taken
correctly.
After learning these measurements
and the sex of the subject, he makes
his own calculation rs to the size ana
shape of the head cavities and an
nounces whether the subject, If Il girl,
is soprano or contralto, and, IL n
boy, whether he should sing the role
of basso or Of tenor robusto.
mamie often sings soprano just he
cause Susie does, although she ought
to be singing contrnlto," says Profes-
sor Fitz. "And Bill insists upon sing
lg bass because he thinks It is manly,
when he really ought to be II tenor"
Persons with round heads make the
best singers, he says, because their
head cavities are the most symmetri-
cal; those with long heads come next,
and those with oval Uranium rank
last.
ITS nonsense" he says, "for people
to pass four or five years studying mu-
sic to ascertain whether they can
sing, and, If so, what part, when hv
this method they can obtain such u
decision Immediately"

SeaWeed Discovered by
Japanese as Substitute
for COtton-AISo a Food

Something has been heard lately of
the value Of seaweed for food. II can
also be used, we now learn, says a
writer In the Manchester Guardian, as
substitute for cotton. An account Of
this new textile was given recently by
X. Hamada, vice president of the Japa-
nese house Of representatives, at n
meeting Of the japanese Federation of
Marine Industrial associations.
The raw material may be obtained
from two kinds of seaweed, called In
japanese segumo and gomoguma.
These are boiled together In water
with wood ashes and then In water
mixed with rice bran. After bleach
Ing. fibers are extracted which can be
utilized for manufacturing purposes.
The announcement Of this discovery
has awakened no little interest on the
Pacific const Of America, where the
supply of seaweed Is almost ineXhaust-
ible. II Is along that coast, too, that
some of the Investigations were car
rled out few years ago by japanese
scientists, whose explanation that their
visit had us Its object the study of
seaweed wns received with consldera-
BILE skepticlsm.

Recently n woman who is college
graduate gave up her regular work and
moved to farm. In order to make n
success of farming she not only read
books on scientific agriculture, but also
listened to the earnest advice Of ex-
perienced farmers. Sometimes this adj
vice was too far removed from science
to be useful.
One farmer, who probably has never
read farmers bulletin, heard dis
cusslon about 'How to get rid of cut
worms" He said he knew remedy
that was sure. "Take shotgun" he
sald Ego to the east corner Of the
field, fire the gun toward the west then
walk straight. across the field TO the
opposite corner, then fire the gun
again. This will cause every cutworm

that to care for their health, wealth
and happiness, we are enlisted for no
less n period than they are.
The cessation Of war will reveal n
picture Of misery such as the world
has never seen before, especially In
the many countries which cannot help
themselves. The American people will
expect the Red Cross to continue to
act ns their agent in repairing broken
spirits and broken bodies. Peace terms
and peace conditions will determine
how we can best minister to the vast
broken areas which have been hnr-
rOwcd by war, and for this great net
Of mercy the heart and spirit Of the
American people must continue to be
mobilzed through the American Red
Cross.
On behalf Of the war council we ac.
cOrdingly ask each member of our
splendid body Of workers throughout
the land to bear In mind the solemn
obligation which rests around each one
to carry on. We cannot abate one In.

In answer TO the question which

For AirpiaTe Production.

Many fine walnut trees which were
not for sale at any price until the

valuable timber Is George Vehslage of

eightyone years, who thus desired to

A total of 173 logs has already been

20, 124 feet, the logs for the most part
being 30 inches to 36 inches In diane
