 June evenings are apt to be cool SO hot coffee in the thermos bottle win be better than lemonade. Thers are always poatoes i'm the house and if they aren't cooked boil them with | the skins on and peel them while warm. And there's always an onion But lf there isn't a cucumber use plckied cucumbers cut in thin slices and add n hard boiled egg or two

GRANNY FOX VISITS
 PRiCKET PORkY
I've often heard old Granny say:

I've Often heard oin GraAny say
 He lives longest who runs away.
 IlsstIuy ro1 1itiTI sFl.i.-s ti-ssl was speaking aloud. He was trying a coward and that in running away frrr Hii Man Coyote he had done czJiy wh. every one of the little znea5oy and forest 2eIpia wouiv asNe dune in hls place. So without know ing it he had spoken aloud
 But he who runs must leave behind
 His self respect and peace of mind.
 The voice came from right over Reddy's head. but he didn't have to look up to know who was there It was Sammy Jay. of course. Sammy is always on hand when he isn't wanted and Reddy knew by the look in his eyes that Sammy had seen the meeting with Old Man Coyote.
 What are you waiting around here for?" asked Reddy with a snarl
 ITO tell Old Granny Fox how brave you are." retoxted Sammy Jay. his eyes sparkling with mischief, "and how fast you can run"
 You better mind your own af- fairs and leave mine alone. shall tell Granny all about it myself, any way" snapped Reddy-
 Now when Reddy said that he did not tell the truth for he had no in tcntion of telling Granny Fox of how he had run from Old Man Coyote but hardly were the words out of his mouth when Old Granny Fox her self stepped out from behind a bush She had been up in the old pasture for a week or two and had just come back. so she knew nothing of the fright which Old Man Coyote had given the Green Meadows and the Green Forest

LARGE HATS ARE IN

NEW YORK-That hats are giving more and more to lace Is a fact to reckon with in the buy Ing of your mid summer millinery. The tendency. 1t seems, is to make the hat as transparent and light as possible and then generously bedeck it with all manner of colorful fruit and flowers.
 The fancy for the bit of lace veil ing for the eyes has taken a firm hold of the summer mode and nu- merous of the new models sport two inches of veil falling from the brim and softening the line The effect is not too fancy 10 be worn with the afternoon outfit in which shopping or calling Is done
 It is quite natural that late sea- son hats should be large and this year they are large indeed with a picturesque irresularity of line which is very kind to the face
 Feathers which proved long ago, their right to a place in fashionable attire are more than holding their own in hats. Ostrich tips in bril- liant hues frivol at the edge Of some of the largest hats. They may be in as many colors as the rainbow.

lie Health Group.

George II. Lamar will head a
Chamber of Commerce committee
which will appear before a group
of physicians of the Public Health
Service this morning and present
arguments for increasing govern
ment hospital facilities here to care
for disabled soldiers.
The public health group has
charge of the disposition of funds
provided by the last Congress for
the erection of new and the extern
sion of present hospitals throughout
the country for the rehabilitation of
former service men.
Lamar announces the Chamber
committee will not favor any par
ticular project, but will point out
the advantages of al of them.
There is a large. tract of ground
to the east of the present buildings
of st. EliZabeth's Hospital which, Il
Is pointed out, could be used for the
erection of new buildings. This
tract contains approximately ia
acres, and II Is located on Hamilton

there 1t would be possible to segre-
gate the soldiers from the present
inmates.

mfttee are w. c. Balderston, Joseph

friendliness and food as though by a
caress. The little tables are set with
coarse cloths and punches of mari
colds in squat Mexican jars.
The player-piano clatters out La
Paloma' and the black-eyed girl who
waits upon you clicks slip-shod heels
and flashes a scarlet smile as she
takes your coat. Then she leans on
the corner of the table and becomes
intimate over your choice of tortillas
and beans or choriZo scrambled in
egg. You are grateful to her. You
expand at the thought of the choriZo.
All is as it should be. Around you,
upon the low walls, are painted scenes
of Manana Land. A cactus
landscape basks beneath a mellow
sky, and dugouts, heaped with tropic
fruit, float lazy on a singing water
way. You are not in room-you
are in an adventure!
From the inner door Miguel beams
and waves an amiable spoon the while
the frijoles retry with cheese in the
kissing lard. Have you never tasted
the little red bean refried? Have you
never eaten the freshly baked corn
tortillas, gray, thin, like bit of blan-
ket, peeled fresh, from their clay grid
die? Have you never grown young
and brown and lusty again in some
small ROOM like this of mine? Then.
indeed, you have Jared poorly-and
you may keep your banquet hall of
kings. For. me the little door painted
in orange and green. ..-.-.--------
