In fact preparations for this sale dates as far back as last winter, at which time we contracted for the furs used for trimming these coats at old-time low prices. A little later we found several coat makers with hundreds of short lengths and broken pieces of high grade materials (enough for one to five garments of a color), which we bought at actual cost to the maker. These same materials today are selling from 500 to 900 per yard wholesale and silk Things were bought at a third to half less than present market prices. Contracts were then

DOMESTIC SCIENCE CLASS
HOSTESS TO BOARD MEMBERS
Entertained at Patriotic Luncheon
Most Pleasing to the Palate and
Thoroughly Enjoyable.

At the noon recess last Friday the
eleventh grade girls in the domestic
science department of the Dawson
public school entertained the mem
bers of the board of education at a
patriotic luncheon in their class room.
1t was beefless and wheatless meal,
but a most excellent and enjoyable
one, rejecting great credit on the
young ladies and their capable in
structress, Miss Carolyn Remsen. The
menu was as follows:
Cream of tomato soup and corn
meal breadsticks, chicken croquettes,
creamed Irish potatoes, candied
sweet potatoes, macaroni and cheese,
English peas, corn meal mullins, cof-
fee with sugar and cream, soft Gus
tard, peanut corn meal Red Cross
cookies.
The young ladies and Miss Rem
sen contributed the articles that
were used in preparing this bill of
fare, which was in the best style of
the culinary art and graciously serv-
ed by the young hostesses. The ia
BILE was draped in red, white and
blue bunting from the center to the
four corners, the center piece be-
ing American flags. The place cards
had painted on them the American
eagle, having on it's breast the ma
tional coat of arms in red, white
and blue. The croquettes were in
the form of tiny cylinders, having a
small American flag stuck on the
top of each.

can be no let up. Every woman in
Terrell county is asked to give as
much time as possible to this branch
of war relief work.

of cotton, feather, floss or ships.
With such a diversity of work all
who desire to help can be promptly
