One Pocket
One of the most novel features in

with only one pocket. This singular
pocket effect was obtained by folding
over the material across the hip and
slightly slanting it up toward the
back. Though attractive, it is like all

Part of the fun of skating is in the
costume. With the rinks now open
and the temperature falling, many
smart skating togs are seen in the
shops. Women are realizing that they
would enjoy the sport more if they
had the suitable costume. One can
not skate with tight skirt without
some danger. And, besides, comfort
is most essential for this rather
strenuous sport. So the introduction
of the circular skirt has been accepted
and is so we'll liked that a costume
for skating is not automatically so
unless the circular skirt appears.

There Are Reasons WHY

Not Marry

chamber Of the house. She's a pal
not sweetheart.
We begin to see it, don't WEI
It's partly the fault OF Mary anc
Sue and Polly. And partly due tc
masculine blindness to the thins
that isn't obvious.
Men are simple, honest boys ant
they believe their eyes. The ole
idea of woman and the home is still
an ideal. A girl to lots of nice
fellows is either a dear, sweet thing
who leans on them-caters to them
Or a strident, unnatural person
| who isn't more than half a woman
Every man longs for just what
women are craving-a mate. Every
man wants to be looked up to a
bit and loved lot and catered to
still more. No man finds the stuff
that dreams are made of in the aura
of girl who seems never to stop
being an alert thinking machine, or
one who's always cool and aloof or
one who bustles about as if she
were always on the verge of an i'm
portant business matter clamoring
for her attention. ...
Too Absorbed.
Now we're working toward our
answer. The woman who has gone
into the world of work and has
made her success there is a little in
clined to be absorbed by her
achievement. She gives the impress
sion of being utterly self-centered.
Perhaps she is. But deep in her
heart, buried under ledgers and
bills of lading, there is the longing
for love and home.
Men must learn to search for the
true woman under a brisk, cool man
ner, even as they search for her
under a coat of powder and a sec
ond one of rouge.
Women must learn to do a days
work and recognize that it is days
work-no more. Life waits outside.
The woman who works must turn to
life with IAN inward JOY in all things
heard and seen" She must strug-
gle to retain her sweetness and SIM
plicity and gentleness. She must not
let pride initiate her, nor sensitive
ness force her to hide her real self
under the coating of mental eff
cheney and spiritual hardness she
perhaps needs in her business.
The woman who works mustn't
try to persuade herself that her
lob" is all of life when it's only a
cross-section. She mustn't let scorn
for the cheap little dolls who seem
to appeal to men drive her into a
proud repelling of them rather than
be like her unworthy sisters.
The woman who works and sue
ceeds brings the best her mind has
to offer to her work.
: But the woman who works wants
more of life than just work. She
wants her mate. And to win him
she must keep alive in her nature
the fragrance of womanliness. She
must be all-woman to the man she
cares for. And, remembering that
she needs men as they need her, she
must not grow scornful toward life

Feeding the Birds.

Nothing will give more satisfac-
ton to those who love the birds than
feeding them during the winter
months. Feeding the birds costs
very little in money or time; it pays
100 per cent in attracting the birds,
and is one of the best ways of pre-
serving them during the cold wealth
er. Every local bird you help when
frost, snow and ice shuts off its
natural food supply will repay you
later by protecting your garden and
fields.
Supply food and water regularly.
Do not skip stormy days, or some
birds may suffer.
Have food in protected places so
the birds can cat in comfort. The
best foods are suet, pork rinds, bones
with shreds of meat. cooked meats,
meal worms, cut-up apples, bird seed,
buckwheat, cracker crumbs, coconut
meat, cracked corn, broken dog bis-
uits, bread, hempseed, millet, nut
meat. Especially peanuts), whole or

kin or squash seeds, raw or boiled
rice, sunhower seeds and wheat.
Provide shelters where the birds
can stay at night and during storms.

Suppose. instead Of trying to set

cases. Typical cases at that, though
they may not cover the whole world
of possibilities.
Take Mary Kirke, for instance.
Keen, alert, shrewd, quick on the

is Mary. She is making good in 4
mans game, because she thinks with
the clearness supposed to be re-

belong. Mary's good-lookins, too,
in a neat clear cut, tailor-made way.
And her brusqueness hides a long

You can see right off why no man
even tries to marry Mary. She
seems too much like the men them
selves. Not enough emotional slim
ulation to Mary. Men like her-but
they don't want to hold her hand
or give her the reins of their hearts
to hold.
No Romance to Her.
Men look at the nice, chiseled
surface of Mary and say to them
selves there is no romance to her.
They don't day-dream about her.
They don't yearn for her. They
pass her by.
Then there's Susanna Johnston. A

Women of De
Moines Fighting
High Costs

Interest has been expressed in
Omaha, particularly among club
women, in the fight against high
prices being made in Lincoln and
in Des MONIES. The l02 federated
clubs Of Des Moines have banded
together to boycott products tina.
are sold for prohibitive prices. A
Des Moines paper carries the fol-
lowing recommendation and COM
ment:
Every woman should use her tel
ephone, and buy where prices are
the most reasonable, they urge.
This should be done very quietly,
and if the cost of the article is
everywhere beyond reason, buy
something else in place of it. The
reason for conservative publicity
regarding substitutes is that in the
past the substitutes have assumed
in an amazinly short time the same
price as the first article in question.
That prices of foodstufs vary in
different parts Of the city has been
proven. For example. Wednesday
potatoes were $2.75 per bushel in
the suburban parts of the city and
$235 downtown. Farmers were
bringing Fggs into Des Moines and
asking 60 cents per dozen on the
same days that grocers and the
market were getting form IS cents
to 90 cents. Eggs at Newton were
selling at 60 cents during the past
two weeks. A drug prescription that
was filled a year ago for 60 cents,
today costs $1.20. Cotton towels,
that sold three years ago for 20
cents, today bring $3.50, and linen
is impossible. Wooden goods and
shoes have increased from Is to 50
per cent, and if rumors are true,
the manufacturer is not receiving
all the excess. Just here the law
of supply and demand enters in, but
SO also does the question Of real
wool and genuine leather.
There is something vitality wrong
with system of commercialism
that takes from the sick, and from
little children, the essential food
products of life, and ever the bare
necessities. Butter, milk, eggs. vege-
tables and a moderate supply of
meat are absolutely necessary in the
liet of the growing child, and for
them there is no substitute. Without
these essentials we are building an
and rickcty nation for the

tomorrow.
