Warm Weather Tea Hour.

There is no use saying that hot tea
is really more cooling than a cold
drink on a warm day" 1t certainly
doesn't tempt most people. and surely
there is nothing so tempting as we
come in from warm walk in the
sound of the bubbling tea pot as in
the t1nklinS of ice in frosty Sher-
bet glass. Why, oh, why, were those
sounds of cold drinks made SO allur-
ing in warm weather if the cold
drinks were not themselves more re-
freShing?
And another thing You may be an
Anglophi1e or just mild admirer OF
things British and you may feel tina
cold drinks are dreadfully American"
and may feel that If the English can
find hot tea refreshing in the sum-
mer. why, so can YOU But remember
that in the British Isles the climate is
quite different from anything that we
find on this side of the Atlantic. and
that when the Britisher goes to the
tropics, or near tropics. he is the very
one to crave cool drinks the most. Ice
may not be so plentiful in India as in
the States but the Indo- Englishman
insiste on cool drinks in that penin-
ssUla.

than simply having a bottle or so of
ginger ale or lemon pop or root beer
in ice. Those may be well and good
for picnics. but they lack individuality
and somehow are not quite suitable
for the home. The suggestion has been
made that a hostess who expected
many week enders this summer would

SO suddenly that he all but tumbled
heels over head. Sitting on the top of
tall mullen stalk was a soberly

larger than Bully, the English Sparrow.
Above his coat was of duh olive brown,
while underneath he was of a grayish
white with faint tinges Of yellow in
places. His head was dark and his
bill black. The feathers on his head
were lifted just enough to make a tiny
crest. His wings and tail were dusky.
Little bars of white showed family on
his wings, while the outer edges of his
tail were distinctly white. His tail

our home down here. and we like it
very much replied Dear Me.
Peter looked all around with the
funniest expression on his face. He
didn't see anything Of Mrs. Phoebe

The reason for all this turmoil is a

The material is silver lace and is
dropped over a tight rose satin slip
which carries out the contour of the

hem. The wired silver skirt filings

wide lamp shade over an electric bulb.

cut in that classic line which is now
very smart. The material goes over
the shoulders, leaving rounded neck
and a mere touch of sleeves. There
is a girdle of rose satin, and the gown
is finished.

more than any crowded thoroughfare
can stand.
If women want to wear these out
standing skirts, let them indulge in
their desire in private houses, ball
rooms or at dinner parties. They
really should be kept off the street.
They will not be, however, if the
fashion gains power and is accepted
by all those who follow changes.
In short two months the full skirt
has so completely ousted the sheath

in the latter unless there is some in

anything that will convert what we
own into that which we should buy.
We know that the cloth may be as
tight at the hem as walking permits.
but that the moment the knees are
reached the skirt must loosen itself
from the body and go billowing out
into dimensions that have not been
accepted since 1913.
If the fashion for the wide hem is
made as secure as that for the wide
hips, then economy must be thrown
to the winds and we must indulge in
new skirts. There is no help for it.

POTATO BAKE.

A crowd OF 1900 people attended
the first annual Potato Bake in the
Gfeffey Grove last Friday. Dele
cations from Denver. Colorado
Springs and Pueblo were there as
guests of the farmers and potato
growers of the Divide District.
Over ton of potatoes were baked
in huge ground ovens, supplemented
by coffee, sugar and butter. Games
races and contests of potato nature
helped to entertain the visitors un-
till the potatoes were ready. A va.
riety judging contest was one OF the
feature of the day 1t was won by
II. A. Brown OF Monument. In the
seed cutting contest all contestants
disregarded thoughts of disease and
raced against speed. Each man was
scored one-third because he neglec-
ted to throw out the diseased seed.

sented 55 receipts on preparing po-
tatoes and won this contest Po-
