Who drew you to the light OF
earth
Out OF the mystery before birth?
Who watched above your infant
years
And counted all your baby tears
Built up your childhood With her
dreams,
You, the one theme In all her
themes?
Woman, wondrous woman"
A letter has been received in
Salem by Mrs. f. S. Barton, presi-
dent of the Salem Arts League.
from Albert Whitlock, an aged
man. from Lebanon. who knew
Edwin Markham when he was d
boy. The Markham home was
near Abiqua Creek at that time
and II was at this place Mr.. Whit
lock lived. Mr.. Whitlock said In
his letter that he was with Mr.,
Markham's father and his mute
brother In their last illnesses.
Mr.. Whitlock asked II the lecture

indicated that he would be present
for 1t.
Tentative plans are being made

Style Hints
Received
From Paris

The Florentine neck line is
seen on almost every dressy af-
ternoon gown.
The coat dress is the darling Of
the spring mode and is the best
friend of the woman whose chief
ambition is to ally elegance and
economy.
In this season of utter simplic-
ity deep folds OF the material are
often the only trimming allowed
and. by the way, they are very
smart. A charming organdie dress
thus fashioned, the waist and
skirt each trimmed with three
horizontal folds. The square neck
fastens at the back with tiny or
candle buttons. A wide sash of
the material ties at the side front
and it's hanging ends are edged
with tiny ruffle Of Valencien-
mes lace.
The petal frocks which have
been so favored this past winter
will again be worn this summer,
but French voile will then re-
place chiffon and crepe de chine.
Very smart the new evening
capes of taffeta with deep yoke
fitting the shoulders snugly and
the waist part made with two
wide flounces in front with the
help of narrow velvet ribbon.
Gay plaided gingham trimmed
with a bit of crisp organdie seems
to be the favorite combination
for the making of the ideal "gal :
den dress"

Of
New Suits
Are Larger
By Mercedes Devries-Sscmit

And now let us turn our at
tention to the spring suit. Every
single day brings us a new and
most often charming version of
the 1921 models.
1t seems to me that the sensible,
conservative, severe looking Eng
lish tailored suit is "passe." We
see now and we welcome the
striking "couturiere" creations.
Partisan suits are essentially fem
mime and, for this reason. so re
coming to most of us.
IN these imported models the
skirts are decidedly longer-mind
you, don't say long-but longer.
Some suits, many of them, are
beautifully embroidered. Lovely
wonderful patterns appear. A
beautiful dark blue suit mas q
motif of triangles worked in tarn-
ish gold thread. Lattice work OF
squares covers sometimes the en-
tire surface of the material. Many
of the new jackets reach almost
down to the very bottom OF the
skirt, while others, on the other
hand, are quite short. The redfn-
cote with its semi-fitted lines lis
also in evidence. as they say in
Paris, "il y en- a pour tous les
gouts."
Removable Collars
Very smart the large removable
cape collars made OF the material
itself. These short capes, very
popular last season, proved so be-
coming and practical that many
elegantes insist on adopting them
again this spring, hence their re-
newed success.
The skirts of the new tailleurs
are all simple and almost always
absolutely plain-if there Is any
trimming it is to be found on the
jacket.
Very smart the new models OF
crepe de chine. One of the most
charming creations designed this
season is of gray crepe de chine
trimmed with dull silver embroid-
cry. The skirt has narrow pin
tucks on each side. The jacket 3
trimmed with the same fine bin
tucks and belted with a fancy
silver girdle. The sleeve is long
and narrow and is taimmed with
a small cuff Of cire gray satin,
this same cire satin forms. the
flat collar and the revers Of the
jacket.
A Chain Belt
Another model is made of blue
poiret twill. The coat Stimulates
triangles by an all over embroAd-
cry Of black chenille silk, while
the skirt is absolutely plain, show
ing the new circular lines so
much in evidence just now. The
sleeves, rather narrow at the
top, show a tendency to width
from the elbow down to the
wrist.
A chain os heavy steel forms
the girdle. With this sui: is worn
a huge jabot Of ecru lace.
A very new tail.eur which
seems to take its inspiration from
Persia is made in champagne ga
bardine. The jacket Is cut with

Horace Mann Observed.

Horace Mann Observed.
The one hundred and twenty
fifth birthday of Horace Mann,
who is considered Americas great
est educator, was observed in the
Salem schools May 4. On this oc-
casion the teachers took one class
period for the discussion of Horace
Mann and to give a review of his
works and achievements for the
cause of education.
Mr.. Mann was born May 4,

He was responsible for the act in

cussed than Horace Mann. Five
different works concerning his life
have been published in the United

While the last few days have
seen the decrease Of prices in many
eatables, next week will perhaps
see more steady market, though
the price will, of course, change in
q few instances.
Butter and butter fat are down

with these two stationary, milk is
In no danger of drop except
through some local cause or COM
petitive price cutting. There is
an over-supply of everything
which has caused the market to
drop, but the farmer is one man
who does not have to sell If buying
prices do not suit him and he can
hold his produce or ne can produce
nothing, as he chooses. In spite OF
this, however, the only thing
which can cause any real increase
in prices is foreign orders.
Cabbage increased one cent on
the pound today. Strawberries
have dropped in wholesale price to
$3.75 cents a crate, and next week
as the supply increases there will
no doubt be a further reduction.
Grapefruit is selling at the same
price, for 25 cents for thosf
from California, while Florida
fruit is two for 35.
California sand debs were on the
market today at 20 cents a pound.
