A notched collar and narrow belt
slipped through buckle of the goods
gave a snappy' effect to the coat, and
the plain skirt had wide crushed
girdle.
Separate coats are more volumi-
nous, some of them, yet as said before
there is a strong tendency to a mar
row skirted coat with very deep arm
holes and collar of the shirred ma
terials or of fur OF fur coats there
is much said elsewhere. But the gen
eral trend in cloth ones shows that
in the coat we wore last year we can

are not so radical hut that we can re-
model them a bit and conform to the
current demand. Dolmans, dominant
notes of late winter and spring fash
ions, will still be with us this fall, but
it is not promised that their, popular

see all shades of brown, bright reds
and various blues and green's, even in
coats for daytime wear.
The separate blouse is no longer an
adjunct; it is quite "a distinct person

have a suit to wear with it. Prices
on the most delectable ones think
nothing of raising themselves to three
figures, indeed many of them are far
and above the hundred dollar mark.
If one isn't an adept with the needle
or hasn't a stand in with a buyer or
something, one is just plain out of
luck, that's all. After a look at the
glass cases and the royal blouses in
side, however, the average woman
decides that she can sew and will not

Thus does she save few pennies for

HOME FROM VACATION

Some people return from vacation
more tired than when they set out.
They return to everyday tasks with
as little spirit as a. criminal entering
his prison house and complain bitter
ly at the necessity of daily labor.
To others it is pleasure to see the
old familiar scenes again, and they
take up their work where they left 1t
with renewed energy.
People were not built to spend their
time in sporting life, in aimless wan
derings, or in restless sight seeing.
No man ever built up a strong phys
ique on cake and pie diet and human
life was made for work rather than
for pleasure If a person does not
find renewed interest in his return
to his work something is seriously the
matter with him or his point OF view.
The trouble is probably that he Is do
ing his work in so Indifferent way
that the doing of It fails to give him
the sense OF triumph and mastery
which always comes to the efficient
and successful person.

side panels were heavily braided. A
rather wide shawl collar edged in
Krimmer fur finished the coat and the
sleeves which were quite long and
snug were trimmed in handmade but

This suit was in one of the new bright
brown shades and with it was shown
a surplice blouse of canary satin
bound in brown braid.

TRY THIS METHOD
OF SAVING TOMATOES

An economical method of can
mig tomatoes is recommended by
the canning specialists of the Ex-
tension Division, Louisiana State
University, as follows:
Pack firm, whole fruits in a jar
and fill in space with consentrat-
ed tomato sauce. Each quart jar
will then provide whole tomatoes
for salades or baking and a TOM
alto PURGE for soups or sauces.
The recipe is given here.
Select firm uniformly red, ripe
tomatoes of medium size. Put
into trays and lower into boiling
water for one minute. Remove
plunge into cold water, drain, and
cut out the core with a slender
pointed knife without cutting in
to the seed cells. Peel promptly
and pack into jars. To each pint
add one level teaspoonful of a
mixture of one third salt and two
thirds sugar. Fill the jars with
a thick tomato sauce made by
cooking the small or broken to-
until tender. Remove the
seeds and skin by straining the
pulp-and consentarte it by boil
ing to about the consistency of
ketchup. Adjust the rubber cap,
place the jars on a false bottom
in vessel of water which will al
most reach to their tops and keep
at boiling temperature for twenty
five minuitS. Remove the jars
from the wafer bath and tighten
he covers Immediately.

OLD LAND MARK
is BEING REMOVED

The building on the Verret
property north of the railroad is
being dismantled this week and
will be removed from the location
The property on which it is stu
ated having been sold by Mr.. J.
| A. Verret recently to L. NJ. Du-
cote, agent for the Southern Pa
cific railway. i
The tearing down of this build
in brings to the front some of it's
history that it will be pleasant
for the old timers to recall. 1t
is not an old building, having
been erected about fifteen years
ago, at that time being located
about two blocks east of it's pres
ent location, near the section
house. 1t was, built by the late
Mr.. Alex Verret for the accomo-
dation of Sam Berkowitz, who
operated clothing and dry goods
store therein. 1t is said that Sam
developed very prosperous
business there, but he also de-
veloped a fondness for the -four
aces, which ultimately resulted
in his financial downfall.
Before the fire of 1910 the
building was removed to its pres
ent location, being used as a
blacksmith shop for some time.
In this building Welsh's first
garage was established by Jesse
Buckingham. Although not SO
very long ago the arageS of those
days were not as pretentious as
the ones of today. The building
has since been used by Mr.. E. F.
Doan as a tin shop and lastly by
Mr.. Mohler as a paint shop. 1t
is stated that Mr.. Verret will use
most of the material, which is in
building purposes.

and saw much hard service over
in the war zone. Although he
was in the railroad service in

understood that he may decide to
make his home here in Welsh.
