NEW YORK, March 22.-Its hard
to conceive how Cleopatra, Helen of

DANES of pulchritude ever won in the
prize in beauty show without so
much as single blue serge suit or a
taffeta frock on their backs.
Nowadays no pulchritudinous peach

blue sergeless existence. Indeed blue
serge is an omnipresent in our best
wardrobe as blue blood in our best
families. Tricotines, twills and ga
bardines have tried in vain to down
the old reliable and doughty serge
for twills may come and garbardines
may go but blue serge surges on for
ever.
In the newest Spring suite models
it is blue serge that builds the ab-
brevated Eton jacket and the swag

to the hearts of slim young things.

Beef Cattle


Monday prices on beef cattle
slumped Is to 25 cents and remained

next three days. Today the market
took an upward turn and beef steers

steers quotable at $3.50 to $14.25,
yearlings from $11.50 to $3.50.
Cows $3.50 to $10.50, heifers $1,000

$500 to $1,000, with a good clearance

Stockers and Feeders
Stockers and feeders were in active
demand the first three days of the
week, sales ranging from $3.50 to
$3.50 on feeders with stockers 60
ing at $1,000 to $1,000 yesterday,

Hogs

Hogs
With $4,000 hogs on Chicago's
market Monday, and liberal supply
at all River markets, Kansas City
went off Is to 25 cents. However,
moderate supplies. Tuesday brought
the market back strong and hogs are
closing $1.00 to $1.25 higher than
Mondays close with today's top at
$1,000 to the packers, equaling the
seasons high level. Shippers this
week took to the butcher grades and
pigs and forced the packers to bid
up for what they got and at times
forcing the packers out entirely,
which would indicate a continued OUT
side demand for this class. In fact,
the undertone is decidedly strong and
no doubt next week will see a higher
market. -,
Sheep and Lambs
After Mondays break of Is to 25
cents, the market steadied and re-
gained its loss and today is quotabe
rs cents higher for the week with fat
lambs selling at $3.50 to $18E5,
yearlings quotable $1725 to Sits,
ewes $13.25 20 $13.75. wethers $14.00
to $14.50. Practically no feeders or
breeding ewes on the market this
week indications point to very light
run of all kinds the coming week.
Horses and Mules
With about an average run of both
horses and mlues this week trade was
slow and draggy. No doubt the cold
rainy weather in the South had a lot
to do with the condition of the mark
ct with Improvement in transporta-

A Mack Sennett Five
Reel Comedy COmine

Down On the Farm" United
Artists latest release, opens
when the champion rooster of
the ranch puts the sun to work
early in the morning of what
proves to be the busiest little
day ever experienced on any
farm. From that moment until
the close of this Mack Sennett
fve-reel comedy sensation that
will be shown Saturday night,
Dec. 18th, at Social Theater, ev-
cry resource of the enormous
Sennett studios in the suburbs
of Los Angeles is involved with
results, thrilling, comic. hilari-
Gus, farcical and furiousIy fun
ny. Thrills are divided by
laughter; suspense is relaxed in
grins, and dramatic action of
grave significance is interrupted
by comedy episodes such as only
Mack Sennett can devise.
The story relates the advent
ures in romance and finance of
"a rusting corn-fed beauty, :"
namely, Louise Fazenda. The
romance OF her life is provided
by the hired help" whose fists
are as big as his heart. Finance
is brought to the plot by the vii
lage banker-a kind of a cross
between Shylock and Don Juan
Or a mixture of Turk a n d
shark. " The farm hand loves
her for herself alone. The vii
lage house broker and home
wrecker desires her for an in
heritance, the existence OF which
he, for a while, alone knows.
But Cupid gets up in the coun-
try with Chantecleer and starts
on the job with the sun. so it
happens, after five reels of ex-
element, bursts of laughter and
thrills of suspense that loves
labor isn't lost and that though
the going may be rough in the
country for romance, the altar
and the minister await at the
end of the lane to do their duty

Halliday Holiday in Vogue

A short time ago some of the
local church people suggested
the proposition of a halliday
holiday each week for the peo-
pie of Snowflake and it has now
become a reality. Last Satur-
day afternoon was the first time
it was put into effect, and
those taking advantage of the
rest" gathered at the Social
Hall grounds, where basketball
games, races, tugs of-War, etc.
were indulged in by both old
and young. This afternoon will
be this weeks holiday instead
of on Saturday and it is expected
there will be even a better pro-
gram than was given on the
initial halliday holiday. Some,
however, claim Saturday after
moons is the proper time for the
holiday, as those who are hold
ing down salary positions can
get off more easily at that time
than on any other day in the
week.
