Sale of Meat Direct to
 Consumers Is Advocated
 By Colorado Cattleman

DENVER, Dec. 21-A suggestion that the meat packers of this country sell meat direct to the public in an effort to eliminate the middleman's profit was made by A. E. De Recqles, president of the American Livestock and Loan Company. in an address to- day to the Colorado Stock Growers Association.
 The association, which is holding it's annual meeting, today sent tele- grams to western congressman in Washington urging protection of far mers and stockmen from competition with imported hides, pelts and frozen meats by suitable protectice tariff
 De Ricqles' address followed speeches by men prominent in the stock growers organizations of Color ado, New Mexico and Wyoming
 "The meat distribution system at present is practically a monopoly" he declared, But if meat could be put on the table of the consumer at anything like the price the producer gets for it, we could not raise enough stock to supply the market"
 ''I suggest" he continued, that an attempt be made by this association to have the packers sell meat direct ly to the publfc"
 De Ricqles suggested as solution for the serious financial problem that the farmer is facing today that the government refund liberty bonds or transfer them into long time ob- legations so that the federal banks can be relieved of the burden of pay ing off the interest for the present so that the money can be loosened { in rural districts.

How far the city council wants the police force to go in carrying out gambling raids within the city limits and what backing the police force will get from the city council in put ting stop to gambling, were Ques tions asked by Chief Kempton at the regular meeting of the council last night
 Kempton explained that in the last gambling raid he conduited he was forced to break down a door to gain admission. He pointed out that it is impossible to obtain conclusive evi- dence without using such tactics.
 Mayor Erickson expressed himself as being doubtful about the matter of breaking down doors. T am just as much opposed to gambling as any body" said he, but you know it is against the law to break into a place without a warrant and 1 am not in favor of asking the police force to break the law in order to enforce the law The mayor declared that in his opinion the city should not take the risk of a damage suit which might follow such acton if it was found upon gaining admittance that the law was net being violated
 Sanders Explains Law
 John Sanders, city attorney, eX- plained that the city ordinance with regard to gambling is identical with the state law, and provides for a minimum fine of $100 and a maximum of $500. No provision is made for a jury trial in police court" said San Ind nf.l- hac hall that a defendant in misdemeancr case is entitled to jury trial. Under these conditions it does no good to obtain conviction in police court for the defendant can immediately obtain his release on writ of habeas ccr- pus When jury trial is demanded in police court the only thing we can do is 70 turn the case over to the jus tice court for trial. When this is done a change of venue is always taken to Lowell or some other place and it is found to be impossible to obtain a jury that will convict. regardless of the evidence.
 Councilman Rosok declared that he is in favor of backing the police force up in any acticn taken to secure evi- dence, but advised the use of discre- tion.
 At this point Councilman Caretto asked Kempton since when he had undertaken a campaign against gamb ling
 Ever since I have been in office" replied Kempton.
 Didn't you ever play game of poker yourself?" asked Caretto.
 Never in my life" responded Kempton emphatically mot even when the town was wide open.y
 A lively tilt followed between Kempton and Caretto, the chief tell ing the councilman that he did not like the insinuating way in which he had been questioned, and declaring decisively that he would not stand for it.

is bought 1T means that there must be
q new camisole, chemise and petticoat
or boomers OF course, we have be-
come used to the trick Of always con-
sidering shoes and stockings and
jewelry in connection with the frock
but this including Of the underthings
in the general ensemble is rather
new idea.
That probably accounts for the new
black lingerie that is made to be worn
with black evening gowns that play
such an important part in all social
events this year. There was real need
of them. of course, for the slightest
/ transparency of the gown when worn
with the usual white or light colored
lingerie would mar the effect Of the
frock. For the black dancing frock
the black petticoat-a filmy lace af-
fair. of course-is practically essen
tial. for there is always a discordant
note in catching glimpse Of a white
or f1esh.colored ruffie beneath the
black skirt.
But seldom are the black under
things unrelieved by some color or
touch Of metal. The newest idea is to
have them embroidered with gold and
silver tinsel. Camisoles have shoul-
der straps of silver or gold metal
ribbon.
f! To be worn with evening frocks in
which the predominant note is metal
lie silver or gold, the camisole and
petticoat must be toned to harmoniZe.
Hence we see petticoats with silver
and gold lace ruffies that cost even
more than we like to consider fair
price for the frock itself
Not long ago a set of evening under
things was made of ~, hues of the
! rainbow in the sof,cst chiffon or
georgette. This sort of thing might
be made to wear with several diff
| ferent evening frocks. A rather strik-
| ing set was made of bright red and
white checked georgette. possibly to
go with a red frock.

The Rats Plan to Kill Billy
Mink.

It having been agreed by all the
rats in the big barn that they would
stand by each other, and the next
time Billy Mink appeared would all
attack him at once. they Immediately
began to feel better. Only the oldest
ones shook their heads doubtful1y and
continued to look worried. The young
er ones boasted. Had they not driven
away the cat which the farmer had
put in the barn to catch them? And
was not the cat very much bigger
than this new enemy? They began to
talk among themselves of the fun
they would have when Billy Mink
should next appear.
I'm not afraid" said one.
Nor l." cried another. And all the
rest of the young rats boasted in the
same way.
But the gray old leader still shook
his head and looked worried 1T is
all very we'll for you to brag of what
you will do" said he. but Dragging
never yet won battle. If we would
keep our homes here in this big barn.
where many of you have spent your
lives, we must make our plans to kill
this terrible enemy. 1t will not do to
simply drive him away, for he might
return when least expected. Always
there must be two or three on watch.
The instant that mink appears warn
ing must be given. and then all of us
fall on him at once.

had to face that fellow alone. but II

gowns of 1t are going to the winter
pleasure resorts. Home dresSmakers
are looking upon the idea with ap-
proval because they feel they can
achieve 1t in the sewing room. They
are aware of the fact that organdy is
easily crushed, requires a hot iron as
a daily companion, and Is not fit to

despite all these striking facts they
! like the Idea of using a summer ma

a gown that has a touch of the un-

Combined With Black TaHeta.
1t may be shrewd guess on the
part of the dressmakers that they
can make black taffeta n fashion If
organdy.
White lace does not appeal to the
public; white crepe. which has been
| tried. Is not entirely acceptable.
Therefore they are experimenting
| with organdy, and so far the result
hHs been entirely attractive.
There are especially good gowns Of
organdy and black taffeta. This COM
bination may sound dull. but It is
not. The artistic dressmakers have
discovered that a colored sash brings
the two fabrics together In a quickly

The sketch. for instance, shows
such a gown. It Is one of the striking
models Of early January and points
the way to seas.n of organdy.
The white muslin Is used as an un

Organdy ns a Panel.
1t is well to be advised before
hand that there is little encourage
ment given to the use Of organdy as
a skirt finished w.tn n taffeta hem
and sash; or to the use Of organdy as
a bodice with collar and cuffs of taf-
feta. This was the experiment of
year ago. but this season the entire
effort of exploiting organdy seems TO
be in the direction the front panel
or rather of the underslip that ex-
tends from collarbone to them and
carries an overdrapery Of the dark
material.
/ Worth of Paris made this idea pop
ular fully six years ago. He used it
in white and black ratin, sometimes
fastening the white satin panel with

were appointed to watch all the holes
through which Billy Mink might enter
the big barn. When it should become
necessary for them to go hunt for
food other rats were to take their
places. All the others scattered to
their homes. Some lived under the
barn, some lived on the main floor Of
the barn and some lived in the hay
loft. The old rats were still worried,
but the younger ones were filled with
pleasant excitement. They rather
hoped that Billy Mink would come
soon. They wanted to show how
brave they could be- Not a doubt
crept into the mind of one Of them
that all would end as they had
planned.
Meanwhile Billy Mink was COM
