W men q duty You would Shirk.
Go watch the Busy Bee work
Buster Bear.
Busy Bee never loafs. She doesn't
know the meaning OF the word loaf.
From early morning to the coming of
the Black Shadows she works. You
see. she has found out that the great
est happiness in life is found in hon
est work. And it isn't selfish work.
On. my. no. 1t is work for others.
Busy Bee doesn't waste any time
thinking about herself. All her
thought is for the home and the
young Bees growing there and those
that are to come later. In all the
Great World there is no one more I'M
selfish than Busy Bee. And all her
sisters are just like her.
Now. Farmer Browns boy knows
knew that just as soon as Busy Bee
should find that honey in the bottom
OF his little box she would forget
everything else and think only of
getting that treat back to the home
for which she was working And he
knew that she would come back for
more and would bring with her sis
ter just IS eager as she for such rich
treasure. That is why he left the
top of that little box and allowed
Busy Bee to go.
1t was surprising how fast the news
of Busy Bees find spread in that busy
home in a certain hollow tree deep In
the Green Forest. AS fast as workers
came in from other places they were
told about that honey in the little box
and started after it. In a surprisingly
short time there was a double line of
Bees going and coming between that
little box and the hollow tree.
This was what Farmer Browns boy
wanted and expected. 1t surprised
Buster Bear. but not Farmer Browns
boy. After a while Farmer Browns
boy put the cover on the box while
there were several Bees in the box

the Green Forest in the direction in
which the Bees had been flying Bus
ter Bear stole along behind to see
what Farmer Browns boy would do
next.
After going short distance Farmer
Browns boy stopped. placed the little
box on an old log. took off the cover
and sat down. At once the Bees which

Soon the line Of busy workers was
started as before.
Then once more Farmer Browns

the line of Bees he walked off straight
to the right. After going short dis

WOODEN CAPE IS BACK IN STYLE.

that is left from last year: they serve
as a covering for several gowns. In
color they have depth and richness.
Deep blue, dark purple. burgundy
red. black. gray and beige might be
scheduled as the leading coiors. With
these as standard. many diversions
are permitted.
1t may be that this permitted di-
versity will spoil the fashion. There
appears rabble of capes that have
little to recommend them to good
society. and those who seek for the
excuse to base price and variety on
ornamentation are putting futile
trimming on these wraps.
Simplicity is the keynote Of the
season. If we are to believe those who
advertise their wares. and unless
capes are a credit to that creed they
fail In distinction. The young girl
however. can take liberties denied her
older sister. as Is shown by the wrap
in the sketch. 1t is for girl who
protects her school frocks on the
street. Its dark blue ground is COW
cred with puff balls.

One must have a wrap in frosty
days. Economy goes by the board
when the need of being protected con-
fronts one at the change from hot to
cool weather.
1t is a well known fact that we feel
the heat more in April than in July.
and shiver with cold more in October
than in January: therefore, we search
eagerly for a thin gown at the begin
ming of spring and a protective wrap
at the first hint of frost.
The traditional act is to buy coat
suit for october. The streets are
thronged and the shops are crowded
with vast multitudes OF women in
New York asking for the newest coat
suit: and now in the twinkling OF an
eye: women are thrown off this secure
footing by having capes offered as
substitutes for coat suits.
The action is economical. The fash
ion is graceful. The change is desir-
able. Therefore. why should women
worry? The tailored suit is pearl of
a costume with a price these days.
Why the America. buyers who have
been toe France should talk with
touch of hysteria about the prices
asked for clothes over there when
they have asked more over here for

ASKS SPECIAL TRAINING.
Labor Expert Makes Plea for Won.
en- and Girls in Trade.

Women and girls who proved their
adaptability to machine shop work
and in other mechanical trades dur
ing the war should be given voca-
tional training to better fit them for
this work. Director Mary Anderson
of the woman's bureau of the Depart
ment Of Labor advocated in a special
report made public today.
State and other vocational schools,
Miss Anderson said, few of which
now admit women, should in all cases
be opened to them, and women must be
encouraged to attend If they are to
reach the more skilled and re-
munerative jobs now held by men, :.
In the light trades affording the best
opportunity for women were included
manufacture of optical and other in
struments and the furniture and sheet
metal trades.

When in Doubt

It's mighty comforting to know
there is some one in whom you have
implicit confidence to whom you can
turn when you are in doubt.
What is it which gives you such
confidence in another? 1t is the repu-
tation that person has for. depend
ability-reliability. 1t has been Sc
cured by years of honesty, fair deal
ing, truthfulness; for confidence is of
slew growth.
So, when you are in doubt about
some purchase you contemplate maxi
ing, it is satisfying to know that you
can depend upon the quality and
value of what you purchase in this
store. There are sixty years Of CIV
ing value for money, with fair deal
ing and courtesy, to justify your
confidence in us.
