MAJESTIC
Sixteen persons are dead, 54 wounded
and hundreds homeless as the result of
a riot and fire which was the outcome
of an order from Boss" Richard Evans
to clean up" the town.
Smouldering ruins, glowing brightly
against the dark background of the
Rampage hills, mark all that is left of
Death Valley" which was known as
the worst red light district in the
state.
In the business section, the gnarled
and twisted pile of sheet metal which
marks the ruins of the Trumpet" Of
flee, stands alone grim tribute to the
memory of the gallant newspaper staff
who for hours defended the building
against overwhelming odds and only
quit when their leader, Richard Evans,
was killed.
The trouble which resulted in open
anarchy, was the outcome of Evans
orders to the denizens of the under
world to vacate death Valley" and
Little He'll" two districts where crime
has been rampant and unmolested for
more than year.
! Evans, who was the dominating fig
ure in the history of Powderville,
owned the town, body and soul The
land was his, the buildings were his
and up to yesterday, the will of the
| people was his.
In past months Evans was seen
nightly in the worst dives of the town.
| They yielded him huge rentals and he
i seemed to glory in the power he WELD
| ed over the entire community.
Recently, however. he changed his
whole manner of living. The resorts
knew him no more, he spent most of
his hime with his editor, Jack Ripley
in the office of the towns only news
| paper.
He became almost fanatical in his
desire to make Powderville a decent
community, and gave orders that every
gambling hell and disreputable resort
should close for good, tonight
| What occasioned his regeneration is
a mystery which can only be solved by
a trip to the Majestic theatre Wednes-
day, where 1.-The Grand Passion will
be shown.

An Old White sklrt-Economy Story.

An Oio Wuite Skirt-EcOu0my story.
Have you an old white skirt which
you thought ready for the rag bsgp
What is the matter with itp It 10 too
tight around the hips. Rip out the hem
and If 1t Is worn on the fold cut It of.
Raise the skirt until II is large enough
around the hips. Cut of the top and
attach to an inner belt. Unless your old
inner belt is as good a. new buy new
ono, for the inner belt often makes the
success or failure of skirt. Even off
the bottom, and II not too short, face IT,.
Otherwise you will have to make false
hem. What is false hemp It IL mere
ly strip Of cloth, straight or bias, a.
preferred, which 10 set on the bottom Of
the skirt to represent hem (not . fac
ing) It may be of the same or OF con-
trasting material, add touch to poke cts
or belt, and show your friends brand
new sport skirt.
Is your skirt too large? Either take
up the seams or recut 1t into new style.
Or, perhaps the top Is too worn to use
any more, Put on new yoke OF similar
material. In case you have no more of
the old material use any white material
and wear the skirt with MILDLY blouses
or one of the new long blouses. You
might make new MILDLY blouse from
the old skirt. Use the bottom of the
skirt for the bottom of the blouse.
Measure up the length desired and Ont
the top OF the blouse by q plain waist
pattern. Add sleeves, collar and belt Of
similar or contrasting material and you
are ready for the next picnic.
Does Johnny need new romper or q
Sunday suit? Get out your pattern and
arrange ell Of Il on the uuworn parts of
the skirt before cutting. Make 1t oil
white or trim 1t with oolored scraps
from the useful rag bag. The material
is strong enough to last johnny season
and by that time he will have outgrown
it. Or il 1t Mary that is in needP Make
her a jumper dress to wear with thin
white guimpes which you can make
from your old waists.
But you have no Mary or Johnny and
you don't need another MILDLY blouse?
However, you do need . vestee for your
tailored suit and that old pique, linen,
or madras skirt will furnish the very
latest material. Use your old vestee for
. pattern or get new style. Cut II
double IL you want It lined with the
same material or line It with lawn and
have two vestees. Cover button molds
with the same material, or use pearl or
black bone buttons, and You have as
stylish an article ~ you'll find in the
shops and for much smaller amount. |
And that green linen needs new collar |
md cuff set which you can cut from the
Did skirt.
So take that old skirt out of the bag |
md look It over TO see what wonders
Tou can perform.
