POOR, BUT EXTENSIVELY CLAD
Siberian Native In Winter Wears q
Costume That Is Worth Many
Hundreds of Dollars.

Although poverty poor" the aver
age native Of Siberia wears during the
winter a dress that would be worth
many hundreds of dollars in the Unit
ed States, consisting as it does of
valuable furs, and representing many
animals, the choicest fur only being
woven into the garments. A recent
writer describes the dress as follows:
1.-THE dress of the Kamtcha dals In
winter and summer is made for the
most part of skins. Their winter cos
tune consists of sealskin boots called
torbassa, worn over heavy reindeer
stockings, and coming to the knee; fur
pants with the fur inside; a fox-skln
hood with long fringe of wolverine
hair, Ornamented with the animafs
ears and heavy kookhlanka, or dou-
Bile fur overshrt, covering the body
to the knees. This is made of the
very thickest and softest reindeer
skin Of various colors, ornamented
around the bottom with silk embroid-
cry, trimmed at the sleeves and neck
with glossy beaver, and furnished with
a square flap under the chin, to be
held up over the nose, and hood
behifrd the neck, to be drawn over
the head in bad weather. In
such costume as this the Kamtcha-
dals defy for weeks at time the Sc
verest cold, and sleep out on the
snow safely and comfortably in tenn
peratures of 20, 80 and even 40 de-
grees below zero, Fahrenheit

COMING TRUE

A club room for the boys of Lyn-
den, where they can meet in the at
ternoons and evenings to read or to
play games, to sing or to frolic as
they will in a wholesome environ-
ment-this is dream that bids fair
to be realized now that the Parent
Teachers Association has started
out to help the young people of the
district. The generous donation OF
a Christmas fund by the First Nation
al Bank gives the plan a solid back

TO ARMS!

The most important matter that
the legislature will consider next
month, as far as Lynden is concerned
is the relief of the poorer school dis
tricts. A committee appointed to
study the situation has recommended
increasing the amount paid by the
state for each school child to $50, as
against $40 paid by the county.
Because the valuation of its school
district is extremely low as compared
with other sections of the state, the
local school directors cannot levy a
tax large enough to meet the present
increased cost of running educational
institutions, with the result that the
funds must be overdrawn to keep the
schools open. Other districts with

A CHRISTMAS
ANNOUNCEMENT
TO OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS:

TO OUR FRIENDS AND PATRONS:
Every year for the past twelve years. TINS
Bank has had the pleasure of presenting its friends
with high grade art calendar, and we know you
have appreciated them.
To present you with calendar equal to what
we have formerly distributed, would cost us this
year $4,000 We believe that you would apprecl-
ate this money expended for some public purpose
bv which the whole community benefited, fully as
much, if not more than if expended for these high
priced calendars.
We have therefore decided to turn over this
calendar appropriation of $4,000 to committee
appointed by the Parent-Teachers Association OF
LINDEN, to be expended by them in any way they
see fit in Boys and Girls Club work.
We want you to share with us in this move
ment for it is your calendar that is being used
Let us have your suggestions. If you think we
have made mistake, tell us so. Some of you Will
send us bouquets We may get few brickbats;
At any rate we will know whether you are pleased
with this plan to keep this sum for useful work
here in our community, and it is your goodwill
and patronage we esteem.

we have such splendid teachers OF

"Flippancy seems TO have become

people were willing to exert them
