PROVE BOON TO FISHERMEN
"GuiIIemots," Inhabitants Of the Far
North, Furnish Adventurous Mari
ners With Fresh Meat.

As one sails along the shores of
Greenland, Labrador and Newfound-
land he sees bleak rocks, sometimes
small and sometimes rising three,
four or five hundred feet out of the
sea, covered as thickly with birds as
a tree is covered with a swarm of
bees which has just left the hive.
The birds which gather in the
largest congregations are the guile
mots and cormorants. Something
over a century ago the great aux
swarmed in the north, but this bird
has become extinct. The most
numerous of all the northern birds
is the guillemot, called by the fish
ermen @murrs'' and "turrs." It sup
plies a hundred thousand fishermen
every spring and summer with the
only fresh meat they get while afoat.
These birds weigh nearly two
pounds. They are white on the
breast, black on the back and have
long, black, sharp bills. They con-
gregate in the bays in winter in hum
dreds Of thousands and in spring fly
out and wing their way south to
rocks and islands on some desolate
coast. They have been seen perchsd
in thousands on some iceberg MAX
ing it's southern march from Bafhn' 3
bay in the spring.

THE USEFUL TAILORED FR0CK
Milady Considers Her Wardrobe In.
complete Without at Least One
Such Outfit.

The tailored frock for street wear
is the most important garment to be
chosen during either spring or fall. For
several seasons the two-piece suit has
enjoyed a rather doubtful vogue, while
the one-piece frock has gained in favor
each succeeding season since it made
it's initial appearance. The two-piece
suit Is really an expensive garment, no
matter what it costs when purchased,
for the reason that innumerable
blouses must be purchased also, and
during the past two seasons the pos-
session Of a two-piece suit has meant
the purchase Of several separate vests
as well. The one-piece frock only re.
quires at the most fresh collar and
cuffs to complete it, and very often not
even these. In addition to these rec.
concentrations, the one-piece frock is
so easy to slip into and so generally
becoming that no woman considers her
wardrobe complete without at least
one tailored street frock for every
season.

where EAST AND WEST MEET
Young Chinese Girls in San Francisco
Learning Language and Customs
Of the Country.

Young Chinese girls in San Fran
cisco's Chinatown offer the most strik-
ing examples Of the meeting Of the
East and West. Physically and men,
tally they show the two opposite influ-
ences under which they live, says the
Christian Science Monitor. Their con-
versation is curious mixture Of
English and Chinese. In their homes
they speak Chinese, but by the time
they reach fifteen or sixteen they know
English better than their mother
tongue.
Among the families who can af-
ford to do 50, the girls are sent to
some teacher Of Chinese to be taught
to read and write their mother
tongue, outside Of school hours. For
the fathers and the mothers have q
wistful hope of returning some day
to China. and 1t would never do If
the children were instructed only in
a foreign tongue.
The life of a Chinese girl is not
altogether simple In the poorer and
more ignorant families the parents are
often filed with superstition and preju-
dice against the education of women.
In spite of the many obstacles, how
ever, they usually manage to get in
touch with some Of the advantages Of.
fered in their quarters, being aided by
social settlement workers Of China
town.

Coal Gas as Automobile Fuel,

In the course of the world war many
motor vehicles were operated in Eng
land with coal gas because Of the
scarcity Of gasoline. The gas was con-
tanned in collapsible bags made Of rub
berized balloon fabric. At present,
however. compressed gas in steel cylfn-
ders is being tried. 1t is stated that
the gas is forced in to pressures as
high as $3.50 pounds per square inch.
The cost of compression Is stated to
vary between 40 and rs cents per 1000
cubic feet of free gas, and the cost as
fuel In the engine Is equivalent to a
cost Of - cents per gallon on the liquid
fuel replaced.-Scientific American.

COLORS FOR 1920
Variety and Artistic Beauty IN
Store for Next Year.
pjnks tn All Shades, Blues, 0reens,
YeIIows, violets, Browns and
Grays In ProfusIon.

Seldom even in pre-war days have
eolors promised more variety, artistic
beauty and brilliancy than for the sea-
son of 1920. That fashion will have
q galaxy Of colors to choose from Is
proclaimed by the 1920 spring season
color card just issued Of the Textile
Color Card association.
Pinks abound in .,rofusion. They
range from the most :elicate tints-
implied by their names-zephyr, dawn
and nymph, down into lustrous rich
tones called rosebud, arbutus and
sweet brtar. Three true venetian
blues of the turquoise type follow.
called Lagoon. Venice and Adriat1c.
Also three soft Notwithstanding
xlory, crocus and thistle.
Five scintillating green's Of blush
cast range from light water green
named Naiad through gradually deep
ening tones-Neptune, jadeite and
scarab, ending with deep brilliant
shade called mint. Among the old
shades of pink are tearose, coral and
the well-known shade Bermuda. Three
new yellows Of slightly greenish tint
are cockatoo. quite pale in tone, and
sulphur and citrine Of greater depth.
The violet tones are we'll represent
ed In hyacinth, foxglove and hearts,
ease, the last a deep rich purple.
Flaming brilliancy accentuates the red
family. Only three shades are includ-
cd, but each distinctly individual.
Firefy, the ughtest, is an unusual
shade Of pronounced orange tone.
In the neutral and dark shades,
browns and blues share equally in i'm
portance. One brown family portrays
the Furnished yellow tone suggestive
of aboriginal tendencies which their
names aptly imply, Aztec, wigwam
and mocassln. Cattail Is dark
brown, less yellow in tone, ranging a
trife lighter than seal brown, which
again appears. Another range Of six
leads off with a light sand shade,
called pebble, and runs on down
through the light beige tones, moth
and pecan, into the medium and dark
er castor shades, grouse, eagle and
moose.
A range Of exceptionally good blues
Of the Delft and tapestry persuasions
appear. Starting with rather faint
blue, called aQuamarine, and followed
by twilight, of deeper, clearer tone,
one finds shades in this group cover
ing all the varied tones Of blue, areo,
hydro, radio and orion, favored by
fashion.
Five grays are shown, ranging from
a delicate tone, called wood ash to the
medium soft shades, cinder and zinc,
down to the darker shades, pelican
and grebe.
