In the larger cities and in some Of
the smaller cities and towns, women
have put very practical ideas into op-
Grafton along lines that are helpful TO
the poorer members of the community,
without making them objects of char
fly. We learned during the war, when
drives were made for clothing for the
Belgians and French Of the devastated
regions, that nearly everyone had
clothing that could be spared. It is
almost a crime to keep garments that
are not worn or needed, stored away
when they might be Of use to 9TH
ers who really need them. Therefore
influential women in the larger COM
munities have organized yearly sales
usually called "rummage sales" and
they contribute to these events all
kinds of clothing-shoes, hats, gloves,
hose, underwear, as well as all outer
garments. The contributions include
clothing for men, women and children.
The more prosperous usually donate
outright what they can spare. 9th
ers ask that selling price be put upon
their articles and a certain per cent
of 1t be returned to them.
But clothing is not all that appears
at these sales; bed coverings, furni-
ture. bric-a-brac, and all sorts Of
household belongings find a place at
the sale. If there is no regular wom-
ans exchange, preserves and canned
fruits and vegetables are sure of find
ing purchasers. In fact, about every
thing appears that is useful or orna-
mental in the home.
II takes a few enterprising and
capable women TO put over a rum
mage sale or a contribution sale or ba-
zaar-the name to be selected accord
ing to circumstances. They must get

warm school coat like that shown in
the picture. 1t is equal to all require
ments of its little wearer, with it's
pretty collar of beaver plush and but
tons and pocket flaps to match. And
the same thing is true of the hat of
castor clipped beaver, worn with it.
Serge, trieotine or any good wool
material is used for dresses like that
at the right of the picture. 1t has g
plated skirt Joined to a body that
opens at the left front, and fastens
with loops over round buttons covered
with the cloth, A soft belt of the ma
terial has diagonal Sits in it at the
front that open into small, square
pockets suspended from the under side.
These pockets are bound with a fancy
silk braid, and the same braid appears
as band on the sleeves and in a
neck decoration. Altogether this little
dress bespeaks careful attention on
the part of an expert designer and
the very clever management of the
pockets is enough to make any small
girl determine to wear it every day
or until something else equally unusu-
al and pretty fills her soul with sat
isfaction.

Like bees about the honeysuckle,"
women have begun to swarm about the
ribbon counters in the big stores.
where there are so many beautiful
dress accessories on display. Christ
mas time is harvest time for the rib
Bon department and already the stores
are showing enticing articles made of
ribbons in order to point the way to
using them. There are whole fiocks of
gay ribbon hair bows for the younger
generation, and there are dance caps
and breakfast caps for young and old,
corsage flowers and bouquets. innumer-
able bags for all sorts of purposes and
lovely girdles and sashes. Vestees and
hat crowns suggest uses for the rich
est brocaded ribbons and many shop
ping bags are made of these.
Ribbons for lingerie have story of
their own which it is important to
know at Christmas time as they fur
nish the most acceptable and least
costly of ribbon gifts. And there are
the pretty neckwear fancies and the
hOuse-furnishing pieces. all meriting
attention of the Christmas shopper.
But it is not possible to describe all
of these ribbon articles at one time. In
the group of dress accessories shown
here there appear three corsage orna-
ments, a dance cap and a party bag,
any one of them a gift that any wom-
an will enjoy. OF the corsage orna-
ments one is a rose made of dark red
satin ribbon; the other rose is of vel
vet ribbon in rose pink and the small
cluster Of little roses in several light
colors forms little bouquet that Will
lind place for itself in many toilettes.

heavier, is favored for petticoats, while

Motorists fail to be discouraged by
the coming of winter; on the contrary,
they lay plans that will give Jack
Frost merry chase if he undertakes
to follow them. ANY number of indus
trious and home-loying, average people
acquire car and become gasoline
tramps" in the winter time. Spring,
summer and fall they labor and do all
that they have to do, but comes the
winter and they answer the call of the
sun and the summer, spinning along
the main lines of travel from north to
south and east to west. Nothing daunts
those who have become accustomed to
touring about the country in their
cars, with equipment to make them
selves comfortable, and even the stay
at-homes don't store the automobile in
the winter as they did a few years
back. All the year round it is going
and coming in this country of restless
and enlightened tourists.
The lady tramp, who is about to see
some of our great and glorious coun-
try from touring car, insists upon be-
ing comfortable above all things. Also
she aspires TO looking as slightly" as
the circumstances permit and the cir
cumstances-in the form Of coats and
hats-are most accommodating.
Two motor coats and a motor hat

coat of natural muskrat skins at the
left has a collar and cuffs of Hudson
seal and is a handsome and cozy gar
ment that insures one against ordinary
cold. The body of it is made of the
whole skins set together. 1t is Dor
dered at the bottom with four bands
cut from the pelts, with the dark stripe
running horizontally. For town or
country this is a fine driving coat and
the tourist will find it a Joy for
warmth. The belt is supported by
slides and fastens over big seal-cov-
cred button at the front.
The cloth coat at the right might be
selected in any of the heavy, soft coat
ings-as cut Bolivia, silvertone or
duvetyn. 1t is lined with a soft, fig
ured silk and has a narrow belt that
extends in two ends across the front
only, allowing the back to hang free.
The ends of the belt fasten at the sides
with buttons. Selected raecoon skins
make the ample collar and cuffs.
The hat at the top Of the picture is
made of duvetyn over silk. 1t covers
the head very completely and has a
visor that shields the ayes. But the
crown is extended and .surned up in a
coronet that gives a bonnetlike effect
and adds much to the dignity Of this
very clever and original headpiece.
Cut-out figures in the crown reveal a
silk lining in a contrasting color.

January is the month in which most
women consider their own and their
family's need in undergarments, and
this particular duty is not so simple
now as it used to be. Two months
earlier designers, manufacturers and
importers must assemble undertakings
for women who leave for the South
as soon as the holidays are oyer, and
this eSacting clientele sets the pace in
the development of new ideas-and
In extravaganza. This year, be it
known, all-white underwear appears
to be their choice, and it will therefore
play the leading role, as in times long
past, in the dainty drama of under
muslins.
But all-white undertakings will not
hold the center of the stage all the
time. Negligees have grown more pic
turesque and colorful, more varied in
style than ever, and the newest fad
calls for hose, slippers, cap and I'M
derwear to match them; the match
ing involves usually two colors, so
there is no monotony. A house party,
assembled for the morning coffee, is
quite likely to rival the evening party,
in gay and pretty dressing, and to
prove more interesting, since one can
venture little way toward the BIZ
zarre in the morning and at home.

the contributions, find a place to as
semble and display them and provide
salespeople. When the goods are ar
ranged, they are to be marked in plain
figures. Usually a woman's club or
similar organization carries these
sales through, small per cent on the
income, above expenses, going into the
treasury. 1t is best to have only a
few Uanagers-say committee of
three-who can give time to the affair
and those who have had business exg
perience, or are known to have exec
utive ability, should be chosen. There
are possibilities for those who sell and
those who buy in a sale of this kind.
The most important thing to remem-
Der Is that clothing and house furnish
ings are to be sold very cheaply. Food
stuffs will bring the market price.
Another fine practice was inaugural
ed during the war, and that was the
conversion of old, battered silver and
jewelry into bullion.
Nearly every one possesses some old
pieces that are never used and are
kept, simply because they are Of pre-
cious metal or have some little senti-
mental value. Probably a good many
dollars In many communities are
wrapped up in useless trinkets. These
might better be donated by their own
ers to the first deserving cause that
comes along. In a good sized city the
donors will be able to raise a respec-
table sum on contributions they will
never miss.

BY means of what is believed to be
new scientific discovery. 1t is claimed
Tint weather forecasts may be mhde
with reasonable accuracy two weeks
In advance.
AS a result OF research, conducted
by n former CHIEF OF the weather bu-
rcau and representative Of the
Smithsonian institution, 1t has been
found TINT there are riffs In the up
per clouds Of the solar atmosphere
which cause variation In the amount
Of heat radinted to the earth. 1t is
said the Investigators have dlscov-
cred the period Of time between the
passage of heat rift in the solar Mt
mosphere and the appearance OF re-
sulting storms on the earth.
1t has been found TINT at times
these heat riffs persist for several
months and that they have produced
corresponding disturbances here.
