NEAR BEER PLANTS
AUTHORIZED BY US.
Manufacturers Can Revamp
Liquid With Kick and Make
Camouflage Lager.

'De-alcoholizins plants" known In
pre-dry days as breweries and winer-
les today were given a legal status
by the Internal Revenue Bureau.
The plants. operating under heavy
bond, will produce millions OF gallons
OF liquid with a "kick." but under
pain OF severe punishment. the ''au-
thority" must not exceed one-half OF
per centum, when II is turned loose
to thirsty consumers In the form OF
cereal beverages.
Penal bonds ranging up to 100000
were fixed by the bureau as a guar
antee that they would not run eoun-
ter to the stiff restrictions OF the ma
tional prohibition law. Many plants
governed by these regulations have
operated in the past as distilleries
and breweries. and they will continue
the manufacture OF liquids by the pro-
cess by which beer, ale. porter, or
wine is produced, but with tho fer
mentation process decidedly arrest
ed.
The bureaus ruling stipulates that
this class OF. beverages can only be
manufactured at "de -alcoh olizing
plants" This ruling. however, does
not apply to manufacturers OF unfer-
mented fruit juices. The farmer and
the far-sIghted housewife have es-
capped thus far further restrictions in
the making OF wines from berries and
fruits.
Owners of such plants further are
authorized to purchase beer. ale, por-
ter, or wine for conversion into soft
drink" beverages, after they first
have paid the. tax BY the method
of extraction" the ruling says. such
liquids must be properly reduced to
alcoholic impotency.

WE ENJOYED OUR VISIT
AMONG SCHOOL DAY SCENES

The editor of this page enjoyed a
weekend trip 70 Colorado Springs last
week, and had the time of our life.
Most of you know we attended the
Deaf School at that cay some twenty
years ago. There, there now, we were
only little girl then, honest TO good
ness, but then even = little girl can
remember things that happeacd twen-
ty years back Wen. any way. We en-
joyed a visit al the school. where WI
once attended and made life miserable
for sundry teachers, matrorss and other
school heads However, from ehe
warm welcome we received last Satur-
day, apparently all has been forgiven.
Oh, all the changes we found, both
IN the school and its occupants. Our
old matron, however, is SIN there and
also the superintendent and his lovely
wife. How we did enjoy that stroll
over the school buildings-old and
new--and all the new things we saw.
We felt keen pang Of memory when
we entered again the Girls HAIL.
and saw again the room that once up
on time WAS ours. To be slre, it did
not look quite the same. but from out
the dim shadows we saw again the
familiar faces of girl friends of by
gone days.
The Deaf and Blind Institution at
Colorado Springs is considered one Of
the most beautiful state institutions
in the state Situated upon n hill, il
overlooks the entire city and surround
ing country for miles. Away over in
the background in one direction is the
National Printers Home. and il was
somewhat coincidence that as we
entered the grounds the first time, the
very first person we met was the
instructor in the printing department
Of the school, now retired and some
what feeble owing to advancing years.
We wish that we could have stayed
longer, but nevertheless the pleasure

Saturday night and Immediately went
mp town where sister lives. Having
key to her house, we can get in at any
hour we happen to hit the town, SO un-
known to sister, we walked in to find
everybody in bed. Needless to say all
was dark. However, we knew (or thot
we did, where the electric switch was
20 proceeded to softly step around to
locate a certain table, by which to
guide our efforts to throw some light
on things, but, what we didn't know
was that friend sister had moved the
table to make room for stove and
instead Of the smooth surface Of the
article in question we hit the keyboard
Of the piano, filing the air with an un-
earthly imitation Of jazz. We got
mixed and decided we were headed in
the wrong direction and started in
tha oppoate way to discover what We
eo1ld touch with out-stretched hAndB.
We soon found out, it was the stowe,
ouch! and something else. We hfially
found the switch with our fingers ct
tie same time our shin found chair.
Next time we win loose the latch key

GET OUT OLD LACE COLLARS
AND PAINT THEM LIKE NEW

Autumnal shades and grayed colors
are being used a great deal this year
in the fall and winter costumes. Many
beautiful hues are combined in the
decorations on hats. These colors
may be repeated in the gown by the
use Of oil paints on cotton or linen col
lars.
Lace collars having floral design
may be painted with harmonizing hues
TO match those of the hat. To do this
pin a sheet of clean white blotting
paper firmly and fasten the collar to
this so that it will not slip. The blot

the paint if it runs thru. II the oil
