There's plenty of interest in bath
ing suits as is evidenced in the ex-
hibit of the very newest swimming
suits on the second floor of the Mich
ael ]. Leo store at 225-227 Summit
St. They are called Tom Wye suits
and are designed by one of the very
best makers of aquatic sports suits in
the United States. A full line of var
led styles comes in all the very new
est coloringS, including Jade, henna,
kelly green and orange.
You'll also be attracted to the very
newest wash suits that have just ar
rived. Made on identically the same
lines as the wool suits they are most
charming and come at popular prices
On the fifth floor of the big
Thompson-Hudson store there is a
most complete display of the newest
ideas in sweaters. A black silk
sweater is a novelty and when worn
with white skirt makes wonder
fully good looking sports costume.
Navy blue is also one of the newest

sports hat to match the sweater,

procured novel line, so that milady
may have the very newest.
A wash skirt this season is requi-
site to the well-dressed woman.
Worn with sweater it's ideal. De-

on the wash skirt this season for
never have they been more pretty or

KEEPING APPLES IN WINTER

The old way of keeping apples dur
ting the winter is by burying in q pit
in the garden. The apples are placed
IN conical form, some straw is put
next to them and then FIVE or six
inches OF earth outside the straw. A
handful or two of straw, for ventila-
ton, should be left uncovered on the
time by an old bucket unturned; but
when severe freezing takes place this
opening Is to be fully covered with
eerth.
Apples may be successfully kept in
the cellar, particularly If the quantity
Ia not very large. In such case the
main difficulty would be the variation
Of the temperature, which would fire.
auently be too high. This can be
rarity remedied in the more moderate
part Of the time BY opening the door
10 the night and keeping it shut in the
i daytime.
The best way to keep apples is in a
regular fruit house, particularly II the
quantity is considerable. 1t should be
partly underground, and the walls
should be double, with q space of
about twenty inches between, for
some nOn-conductOr of warmth-saw.
dug. for instance-and the ceiling
must be double as well as the walls.
In this condition the two essentials
can be maintained: First, ventilation
at will; second, complete control OF
the temperature, which should be
near the freezing point. Ventilation
| is best accomplished by conducting
| the outside air through tunnel 10 or
| is inches in diameter and 100 feet or
| more in length, and at depth of
| nj out four feet under the ground, be-
| fore admitting it into the house. The
| outer end of the tunnel should be in
southwest in many or most localities.
And the building will do best on o
hillside facing the same way.
Both ends of the tunnel must be
provided with tight.itting doors, and
with grating close enough to exclude
small animals when open. The aper
tire in the ceiling for the outward
passage of the air requires the same
arrangement.
In localities where the winter is not
stendily cold good supply of ice will

who knows Of HAwKER and GsIEvE's
gallant attempt to fiy the Atlantic
from Newfoundland to Ireland-and
to what remote and inaccessible spot
has news of their splendid effort not
penetrated will give thanks that
their daring has not cost them life,
and will pray that they may be re-
stored to their labors, uninjured BY
their extraordinary adventure.
They had been given up as lost and
an amount OF money equal to the prise
for which they contended had been
awarded to their families; even their
most hopeful friends had reluctantly
abandoned hope for their safety when
the news was flashed from midocean
yesterday that they had been rescued
from the eea.
They failed to complete the TRIP
they undertook. II Is true, but they
displayed the fine sportsmanship that
compels the admiration Of all; and
from their failure the world Is likely
to gain lessons Of great value In the

Did Bullard or Bundy Write tho Note
OF July IL, 1918?

The presence In the United States
Of Lieutenant General RoBERr L.
BuLLARD and Major General OMAR
BUNDY, both of whom served with
distinction in France, affords an op-
portunity for the solution of a mill
tary-literary mystery which has inter-
ested all Americans since July Is,
1918. On that day the Germans made
an attack near Chateau Thierry on
French and American regiments, un-
der the impetus of which the assailed
line bent. The French commanders
advised, or ordered, a retirement. To
this advice or order an American Cen
eral Is alleged to have answered:
I'VE regret being unable to follow
tho counsels OF our masters the
French. but the American flag has
been compelled to retire.
This is uncomfortable. and none of
our soldiers would understand not be-
ing asked to do whatever is necessary
TO reestaDIsh situation which 10 hu-
initiating to US and unacceptable to
our country's honor
I'VE are going to counter attack"
Counter attack they did, and their
work supplied brilliant page in
American history.
When the message was received in
this country It was attributed TO Ma.
jor-General BrNDY, but subsequently
1t was reported that Lieutenant Gen.
eral BULLARD was its author. The
wording Of the note makes 1t probable
that the version with which We are
familiar may have been translation
from French into English. The use
Of the word "reestablish" in the
phrase "reestablish situation which
is humiliating to us and unacceptable
to our country's hauor" indicate
