Country Organized for
Building Campaign

One hundred cities are now coop
! Grating in the Own Your Own Home
campaign of the United States De-
partment of Labor. This campaign
begun three months ago, has spread
steadily until every State in the
Union has been reached. In addi-
ton to the cities in which the Own
Your Own Home movement has been
we'll started, there are nearly 400 that
are preparing to stimulate building
Systematically.
For the purpose of conducting the
Own Your Own Home campaign in
the most thorough manner the coun-
try has been divided into 10 districts,
with a regional director for each dis
trict .,sI~aE
In promoting the campaign the pur-
pose is, first, to remedy housing
shortages where such condition act
uai exists; second, to collect all pos
sible information on present condi-
tions affecting building; and third, to
stimulate the home-ownership idea,
not spasmodically, but so it may be-
come permanent part of the COM
munities.
The names and addresses of the re-
gional directors are as follows:
New England States and New
York-Alfred H. Wagg, West Palm
Beach, Fla.
Wisconsin, Illinois, Indiana, and

The Noon in a yeuOeled Sky.

TOMORROW night the moon viii appear full, round
disk like golden shield, moving slowly the
richest part of the Milky Way, where seems to pour down
in phosphorescent streams through the constellation Sa
tarus The blending of the moonlight with the galactc
glow seems to burnish the starry sphere.
The Washington times., 1919-07-11
By David Cory.

NUDDENLY there was a big
bump, guess the old woman
~ who swept the cobwebs on the
sky had also fallen asleep. At any
rate, the basket was caught on
rainbow. Puss Junior awoke with
q start. "Why, how did this hap
penn" he asked.
'I must have fallen asleep" re-
piled the old woman. you looked
so comfortable all curled up that 1

But ] don't see why the basket

Puss Junior climbed out and ran
along the rainbow. 1t was very

and before the old woman could
speak he had started. Ny! how fast
he went. Just like the wind It
was lucky that the end Of the bow
happened to rest on q big haymow,
for otherwise I shudder to think
what would have become Of PUss.
There would have been nothing
left OF him but the tip of his tail
and maybe a nail from one OF his
sturdy little toes. Something like
the. Kilkenny cats in two or three
stories ago, you remember.
AS soon as Puss picked himself
up the Cow that Jumped Over the

the moon" said Puss. ''1n fact, not
nearly so good, for you had to jump
up and then come down"
did you see me?" asked the COW.
"Of course. Don't you remember
the little cat who played on the nd
die? She and 1 ran over when you
came down in the clover patch. 1t
was long ago"
so it was" said the cow, "and
now I'm too stiff to jump any more.
1 have rheumatism quite badly"
That's a shame" said Puss, "for
1 remember as If IL were only yes
terday how gracefully you did it."
'1The music helped a lot" sighed
the COW. That little cat played
beautifully on the fiddle"
"And the dish ran away with the
spoon and was never heard Of"
After that the Cow walked over to
the meadow. Puss followed her
and strange as might seem, there
was the little dog and the little cat
with her fiddle, and the long-lost
dish and spoon.
Then the moon came down quite
low in the sky, and the little cat
began to fiddle, and the little dog to
laugh, and the dish to chase the
spoon, but the Cow shook her head
sadly and said: I'm too old to try
IT again. But will dance a little
for you II the little cat will play"
which pleased everybody very much,
showing she was very obIiginE
after all, in spite OF her rheuma-
tism.

them home. OF course, the chauf-
feur might have been at the house

have displayed to him some OF her

not likely.

haviour was outrageous.
But Desiree could hardly believe

that she herself would not be COM

truth.
Turning back, she went upstairs
TO her own room and summoned her

"Norah,'. she said, 'see what

Perhaps he did, ma'am," Norah
replied calmly.
Her manner was 50 lacking In
self consciousness and so indiffer-

own suspicious had been unjust.
She was glad, and so much relieved

thoughtfulness in returning her

Clothes for the
Camp
By Rita Stuyvesant.

THE outdoor girl who loves
camp life will be very COM
= Portable this summer. for there
are smart, serviceable toys destined
especially for her benefit. Perhaps
the war has taught us the value OF
uniforms for women. for their in
fluence has been felt in all the real
sport clothes of the season and to
good advantage.
Rough and ready clothes are
shown for the girl who will spend
her summer in the woods or per-
haps in a tent pitched on the bank
of a lake. But there is a certain
charm about this apparel that in no
way binders its active wearing
qualities
Navy blue. khaki and hemlock are
among the best colOrs for outdoor
wear. because they do not soil cas-
lily and also are a sort of CamOU-
flage when one does not care TO be
disturbed by ,inquisitiye strangers
in the Woods.
For general wear a three-piece
suit, consisting OF skirt. blouse and
boomers, will afford plenty of free
dom of motion. The skirt should be
short and rather full. Circular mod
els are moro graceful than gath
cred ones. and may be buttOned
down the front from belt to hem
with bone buttons.
The sport blouse may be pattern
ed after the soldiers o. d. shirt but
one can cut the sleeves short and
they Will be more comfortable. The
neck may be worn closed or the
collar can be rolled back and worn
with a gap neck tie.
Boomers or riding trousers take
the place of petticoats and other
feminine finery. High waterproof
shoes are serviceable on "hi6es" but
many women find them too warm
and heavy for daily wear at camp.
Light oxford ties with waterproof
sOles are very comfortable and are
shown in a deep wood brown color.
To protect the face from the sun
n large straw hat should be pro-
vided with an elastic chin band to
keep it from blowing of in the
wind. One might also bring a small
close fitting cap of galatea for rid
ing or motoring. a top coat or
heavy sweater will prove useful on
cool nights at camp.
With a wardrobe of this type the
athletic girl should be happy in the
freedom OF her camp life.

n AVID DE LAME wanted to
get rid of the sapphire pen
dant as soon as possible. It
had started a train Of thought that
he wished to Danish. So, instead
OF waiting until late in the after
noon when he was to bring his en-
ployer home, he walked around to
Mr.. Leighton's house about
o'clock
As he mounted the steps, the front
door was opened by Desiree herself,
who, dressed for the street, was
just starting out for a walk.
At sight Of her the chauffeur took
OF his hat
''Why. Smith" she exclaimed in
surprise. whats the matter? Not
another accident, Is there7"
"oh, no, Miss Leighton" he re-
assured her. But might I speak
to you for q moment"
Certainly she said. "Step in
side IL you like"
She moved back into the house
and he followed her, drawing from
his pocket a small tissue paper
covered parcel
'T'found this on the floor of the
car" he explained, handing II 20
her. 'It is yours. You dropped it
this morning."

''I do not remember losing any

But she insisted, starting to
