HOW TO SET" coLoRs


 Before making up sinsham house dresses and chiIdren's school frocks the color should be set and the material shrunk. Setting the color will take care of the shrinking, too, so that one pro- cess really does all the work.
 Two ounces of dunn dissolved in a tub of water is used to set light blue, pink. green, lavender, red and purple. Let the fabric stand in the water for half or three quarters of an hour. A strong solution of salt water may be used to set dark blue, gray and yell low.
 Black cotton should be put into boil ing hot studs and allowed to stand till the water is cool.

 If the sauerkraut is cooked in the oven there will be little odor. This is an excellent dish to serve for many reasons. It's cheap, it's nourishing and it's appetizing to those who like It and stimulates a jaded appetite.

Music and flowers = love and TO- nance without them this would be a dull old world after all
 Where there is love there is mu- sic and where there is romance flow CTS fill the background and sometimes occupy the center of the stage.
 In music the flower again plays a conspicuous part, so we might say that flowers play the most important part in human life. Flower songs are love songs and love songs are the pop- ular songs of the day.
 It is easy to write a story when the theme is a flower. Sit down this eve ming and write a brief story on What Flowers Mean in Your Life" There is some incideIA in your life brought back through the memory of a flower. Write your story; do not worry about the composition; it's the story that counts If you do not care to have your name appear with the story, your initials can be used. The Republican Flower Letter Contest Editor is busy these days opening letters and the sto- ries of nsal life contained in these let ters would keep a stort story writer busy the rest of his life Send your story to the Flower Letter Contest Editor and your story will be entered in the Republican contest. The Repub- lican winner will receive a package of Burbank's own flower seeds and the letter will be entered in the national contest.

Dwightie delighted in browbeating the women of his own family. then proceeded, placidly and complacently, to be sweetly kind to the aged grandmother next door.
 I pushed Ann gently toward her duty, then I kissed her. How could so young a girl know that a certain kind of a man cheats always, in love or in friendship?

'ELMW00D SCHOOL
GIVES TO FUND
Other Sums Still Coming In
For The European
Felief Fund

Not to be left behind in the matter
of school contributions to the Euro.
pean relief! fund for the hungry chill
dren of Europe and the near east, the
pupils of the Elmwood school in
South Vernon have notified the coun-
ty committee that they have raised a
fund of $35 for this purpose. The
money has been turned over to the
committee.
Hoy l.. Russell, secretary OF the
committee, said today that individual
subscriptions are still coming in from
Mt. Vernon men and women who
were evidently missed by the solicit
ors during the active drive for the
fund.
Many of those who we're missed by
the solicitors display some indigna-
tion over the fact that they were left
out, according to Mr.. Russell.
"The rural communities are either
being well covered by the township
committees or else the rural citizens
are not takiag great deal of inter-
est in the starving children of Eu-
rope" Mr.. Russell said today, basing
his conclusion upon the fact that but
very few subscriptions have reached
him from persons living outside of
Mt. Vernon.
DR.. f. M. Blake reported to the
committee Saturday afternoon that
College township would more than
meet it's quota Of 5000, and that it
would contribute 500 to Harrison
and $50 to Pleasant township. This
report was considered very good, in
that College township is one of the
smaller sections Of the county.

GREAT POWER Of PRESIDENT
United States Chief Executive ~Most
Potent Constitutional Function
Z NH'iN airy in the world"

The legal functions OF the Presl.
dents office nre SO eminent that he
cannot escape the responsibilities OF
executive action. however much he
may he inclined TO avoid them. His
constitutional powers alone make him
the pivot upon which all the admins
trative machinery operates.
He appoints the heads Of depart.
ments and may direct their major pol.
icies. His power of appointment TO
all the greater Offices Is far reaching.
He can recommend, shape and veto
legislation. His control over foreign
affairs is virtually complete. He is
commander in chief Of the army and
the navy. In short, he is the most
potent constitutional functlonary In
the world.
All these constitutional powers have
been vastly augmented by practice
and custom. The President today can
do innumerable things that George
Washington or Thomas Jefferson
would never have dared do even II
they had thought OF them.
The constitutional conception of the
President is that of chief executive.
an administrator; custom has adde"
to this conception that OF leadership.
