Here is a silk hat which is unusual
but no extreme. 1t Is made Of salmon

becoming. Such a hat may be used
for sports wear when made in bril-

effective for later wear when fashion

Xmas Trees are
PLENTIFUL; Big
Shipments In

There is to be no dearth of Christ
ma trees in Grand Forks this year,
and every youngsters or gfown-up VINO
finds a part of the holiday happiness
in a gaily decorated % Christmas tree
may have his pick of a big selection
right now. III
Some Of the firms which are hand
ling the trees this year have had a
number on sale during the last several
days, but the larger amount OF them
are Just beginning to arrive. One OF
the local wholesale houses today re-
ceived a car-lot of Christmas trees In
all sizes, from the Cass lake district.
The trees this year range around the
usual prices for the various sizes, n
there is very little, If any increase in
the price. it is said.
The trees will be better this year,
than usual, it is believed, because Of
the fact that weather conditions have
made the cutting of them easy When
our winter season arrives early, and
the snow is deep, cutting is made diff
cult due to tho fact that it is hard to
get into the groves. and the trees have
to be cut, in most cases, above the
snow banks. This makes them OF less
attractive shape. The open weather
this year has made it easy to cut out
the choicest trees, and eve the small
est one coming in here are in good
shape.
One of the firms here handling the
trees sent members Of its force into
the Bagley (Minn.) country, for two
days to cut a quantity of the trees,
which were hauled in here, for sale,
about ten days ago. These have been
carefully selected. and range in size
from the wee ones. to the very large
sizes, with prices graded accordingly.
