Bobby Was HunQry,

The father Of the family always re-
peated very long grace at the dinner
table. The children expected it and
had been taught by mother to be very
reverent during that period. In ia
theirs absence she in turn said very
short one-perhaps partly as a reward
for their good behavior during fathers
turns. But recently when they came
to table very hungry indeed, there be-
fore them was plate of fried chick
en- and large lemon pie. Father took
his place and looked around the table
to see that all hands were folded and
oil heads bowed. They we're and he
was just preparing to bow his when
six-year-old Bobby said in an agoniz-
ing tone: "Oh, mother, don't you sup
pose you could say grace today, even II
father is homer"

II VERY girl with an imagination has
IL pictured the dawn of the honey
moon, with herself radiant bride in
all the glory of white satin and tulle.
And when dreams come true and she
decides. to obey convention there has
never yet been a dearth of satin or
tulle, all ready to be used. But how?
That is the question that fairly OBJ
sesses the bride and all her women
relatives until it is settled. What the
bride requires of the creator of her
conventional wedding gown is that it
must be conventional but in an origi-
nal way-there are ways of doing
things-new ways-that insure an up
to-date result. Each years wedding
gowns are tests Of ingenuity on the
part of their designers, masterpieces
into which they weave the old and new
with .consummate artistry.
This years gowns have provided its
brides with choice Of styles swinging
all the way from straight lines to the
most elaborate draping, and, about
midway between these extremes are
such lovely examples Of the conven-
tional wedding gown as that shown
In the picture. The bride that is fairly
slender and tall will dote on this in
depreciation of current ideas. The
dress shows the skirt, with draped
The Tomahawk. [volume] (White Earth, Becker County, Minn.) 1903-192?, 1920-06-03

tunic at the front, made in one with
the bodice. 1t contrives to reconcile
the smart ankle length Of this seasons
skirts with long train-which accom-
plishment is not without difficulties.
The satin bodice has a square neck
which the bride may choose to fill in
with a guimpe of filmy lace or net, or
wear as it is, since her throat is COW
cred by q scarf Of tulle-part of the
very interesting arrangement of the
most voluminous OF wedding wells.
The veil falls from cap which has
a puff of tul1e for its crown and a
band of orange blossoms that form a
heavy wreath with long, slender sprays
falling at each side. These trailing
sprays have appeared in other arrange
ments Of the cap this season. All the
tulle that can be put into veil envel'
obs the bride in this stately costume
and perhaps this accounts for the pearl
beads that outline the square neck
opening and emphasize it. Jewelry
has been conspicuous by it's absence in
the costumes Of this years brides, but
q necklace Of pearls has always been
allowed and one is worn in this In
stance. If "pearls are for tears" the
bride, being a very modern and up-to-
date young woman, has decided to defy
fate.

I love to see these youngsters, with
respectful eyes lifted toward these
great relics Of the past, pointed out
by the patcrnal hand, while their
thoughts, I know, are wandering to-
ward the Jardin des Plantes and the
greater attractions Of the monkey cage.

The American soldiers liked our

the disease and became bibliophiles or

them have kept an exquisite memory
Of this corner Of Paris. There, in fact,
men and things exchange a pleasant

twentieth century had found them
the good fellowship Of other days.

MUCH LIKE A FLOATING FIELD
Sargasso Sea, With Its Wondrous
Vegetation, Has the Appearance
Of a Prairie.

In nearing the Sargasso sea it pro-
sents the appearance of vast, undu-
lating prairie, clothed In bright yellow
vegetation. On coming on deck one
might imagine oneself and ship set
down in the midst Of field. AS far
as the eye can reach Is the yellow
weed to be seen. in masses more or
less compact, according to whether the
winds are light or strong; sometimes
in lines many miles in length and but
20 feet wide with intervals Of clear
water between; sometimes in dense
circular patches like floating islands.
In this moving continent life runs
high. Myriads Of tiny crabs, some
of them no larger than peas, cluster
about the tangled fronds. Weird-look-
ing little shrimps with wOndrous eyes
on long stems, ench facet shedding
brilliant grcenish light, sparkling like
q cut gem. Water fleas in hundred
varieties, colors and shapes. Little
wOrmlike annelids, black with bril-
liant orange stripes, lead an active
life here, wiggling among the lcathery
leaves. Lovely corralines infest the
branches plumed feathers with myri-
ads Of pOlyps.
It is the ideal breeding place Of oil
manner of marine life, for the heat Of
the sun is very great, so great, In
deed, that in the MONDAY glare the
fish sink several feet to the cooler wa.
tcrs below the algae.

rEX1HEN your path leads past the
w milliner's show window, be sure
you will linger in front of it-for that
way temptation lies. Only midsum-
mer could call forth such alluring
headwear as that which causes the
strongest minded among US to hesi-
tate at the place where it is displayed,
when we should be moving on. It ap-
pears that the very best things which
the year has to offer have been saved
tor this particular time, and the
chances are that some bit Of irresfsti-
BILE art, in dress or sport hat, will part
the unwary-but wise-onlOOker from
some of her money. The career Of the
midsummer hat is brief and glorious,
and we might as we'll reckon with 1t,
for it will reappear with early June.
Three Of these adorable hats, shown
Ia the group pictured here, will sug-
rest appropriate styles for brides
maids, or maids of honor. These mid
summer hats are very often made OF
mannes and hair braid, but sometimes
of silk or straw braid Or of georgette
crepe and other sheer stcffs. One OF
tho hats pictured is a twioe-colored
braid faced with pale rose gecrgette,
and q wreath of roses and foliage
trails about its course.
A lovely hat of black hair braid and
malines might be made up in brown,
or for a bridesmaid, in a light color.
It has a scarf of malines, to be

stemmed rosebuds falling .yom the

To Do Away With "slaekers."

Eliminating the work Stacker" Is
the new job which the American legion
has taken upon itself, acting in con-
junction with the war departments
chain of employment bureaus through
out the country. This type Of ex-serv-
ice man, while not numerous, is occa.
sionally a serious detriment to the
work Of placing ex-soldiers and sailors
in satisfactory jobs. Their attitude Of
shiftlessness after getting the place
causes dissatisfaction among employ
ers who are really trying to help and
gives a black eye to other service men
who still need work.

Another hat of hair braid with a
crown Of braid and malines, supports
wreath Of mixed flowers, roses and
lilies of the valley, that are as natu-
raj as life. This IS very lovely in
gray or brown, and is good in black.
In light colors it is an ideal hat for
the maid or matron of honor or for
bridesmaids. There are many beauti-
full, lfght-colored braids among these
glories of summer millinery, but it is
more than anything else, the charm
Of flower trimming that proves cap
tivating.

The executive board of the Bing-

the inefficiency of the present organi-

with reference to the marketing of
the farmers products, met at the farm
bureau office Wednesday, August rs
to consider plans for recognizing
the bureau on a basis which would
enable it to devise ways and means
to get for the farmer the cost of
production plus reasonable profit
The organization has been hamper
ed by certain outside influences which
made it impossible for it to deal with
the farmers problems in business
way especially in marketing, and It
was the unanimous decision of the
board to reorganize the farm bureau
on an independent financial basis
which would make it possible for such
