" HERE is charm that belongs to
i the bud and no one knows how
to interpret ii so well In clothes as the
specialists who center their minds on
this subject. Everything she wears Is
as carefully thought out as If she were
quite grown up; she just cannot help
looking we'll in the things made for
her TO wear on the street, for sports
or for parties.
She need not envy her older sisters
their fascinating evening gowns when
fashion grants her the privilege or
such alluring frOcks for evening dress
as that shown I'm the picture. It Is
all in white and light green. white
satin making the foundation, skirt
and bodice and green tulie yelling
them. Tulle makes the short sleeves
and the very simple tunic bound with
silver braid. and a cluster of silver
berries on the corsage add just the
right touch of cool brightness to set
off white and green. These berries
appear again on the tunic at the
sides. One could hardly ask more

of life than pair of silver slippers
and white silk stockings TO wear with
such frock. and they are the good
fortune of the very up-to-date young
girl who is displaying her tinery In
the picture.
With a foundation skirt and baby
waist of satin to build on we may
ring several changes in overdresses
and bodices for evening wear. A full
long skirt of colored tulle and a bod
ice with short pulled sleeves. finished
off with a fichu and sash ends or
tulle, will challenge comparisons. Then
there are frocks with wide tucks
about the skirt, and kimono bodices,
made of crepe georgette. Fine white
wolfe is lovely over a color and the
accommodating designers of young
girls clothes approve OF embroidery
if it Is not overdone-and they use
silver and gold thread stitching A
circlet of small flowers about the
head is always the privilege of young
girls and they are taking advantage
of 1t now.

EventfuJ Day in Yuma.

What must have been the excite
ment in Yuma. AriZ., when on Janu-
ary 4 rain fell there for the first time
In 45 years? Grown men and wom-
en-, young men and women, boys
and girls who had never seen rain
gazed i'm alarm or delight or wonder
at an amazing sight; they saw the
heavens yelled for the first time ana
water falling from the gray curtain
drawn across their sky of brilliant
blue! Probably the little ones were
soon barefoot and padding about In
puddles; men and boys throwing on
their coats more intimately TO feel the
delights of cloud-sent shower bath
A shower took on the proportions or an
event; a natural phenomenon reached
the heights of a treat.

not?"

mean?'' asked Mr.. Nighthawk.
"Why the family which lives in the
house which has the roof where we
live have told their friends that every
year on the 10th of March the Night
hawks had come and nestled on their
gravel roof and had laid their eggs
there too.
They have said that they know
when it is the 18th of March, or just
about that time, by the Nighthawks.
SO we shouldn't upset then.
"Just suppose we didn't arrive until
the middle of April. they would think
their calendars were all wrong. The
calendars are the things which say
it is Monday and Tuesday and March
the 9th and April the 9th and so on.

"On Their Gravel Roof"

They tell what day it is and what
month and what year, you see.
"Well. If we arrived in April. af-
ter having always arrived In March,
the family would surely have ter
rible quarrel with the calendars. They
would say TO their calendars:
"'You are not telling us the truth.
We know because OF our friends the
Nighthawks.'
"And the calendars would answer,
"'We are right. Your friends, the
Nighthawks aren't as bright and
smart as you think they are. They
are behind hand, late and slow!
I'VE wouldn't want the calendars
to say such things OF US. so were
not only going back to the roof we
have been to before. but we're going
back In March and will arrive there
on or around the 18th.

"the family which lives in the house

very fond of us. They say they think
we're interesting and they think 1t
Is fine 70 live in the great big CITY
where there are such crowds and so
few trees and where still the Night
hawks are loyal and true and come
back each year.
ssThey like it because we are birds
and yet we do not insist upon a tree
TO live in. They're so pleased that
we will share their home with them.
They like TO have us on their gravel
roof and they often bring us up good
les to eat too, you know.
Its only fair to them to go back
each year. for when friends like us
we should be good TO them. There
are so many who don't care that we
should appreciate those who do!

hurley TOBACCO FIGURES

LEXINGTON. KY. December IT,
The 1920 crop OF hurley tobacco in
Kentucky cost approximately S30s
per aero to grow. according to An Co.
innate made public here by the Col
lego Of Agriculture OF the University
Of Kentucky. The estimate was
based on Investigations of field men
of the university and tha United
States Department of Agriculture,
who for the last two years have been
making a study of the cost of pro-
ducing tobacco in Kentucky.
The estimate covers only what Is
known as the white hurley district of
1centra kentucky. No estimate WAS
smade for the dark tobacco area of
western Kentucky.
The final average cost OF producing
and marketing the 1919 crop was nxei
at $z8S.10 per acre for the hurley dis.
trict and $141.7S for the dark to-
bacco area Eighty-one farms in tho
hurley district and seventy in the
dark district were studied. The 1924
report is not yet complete.
