HANDBAGS MUST BE USEFUL
Compartments as Important as Style
-Duvetyn Faille, Silk and Can.
ton Crepe, Materials.

Smart compact bags are the key
note Of the novelties featured this
season. Paris has set the pace for
bulkless appearing handbags, and
American manufacturers have adopt
ed this idea with variations to suit
the needs of American women.
Bags are carried more for utility
than for decoration by American
women, 1t was pointed out, and there
fore compartments are as important
an element as the style. To give the
fiat effect and at the same time make
II roomy has taxed the ingenuity Of
manufacturers, but they have sue
ceeded admirably in combining the
two. Bags are being made so small
and at the same time spacious enough
for toilet articles, that the term wan
lty" Is literally applied.
The envelope bag square and OBJ
long shape, is the most stressed style,
but bags on frames and draw strings
developed In new materials are also
cOnspicuously featured.
Duvetyn faille, silk and canton
crepe are three Of the most popular
materials used this season and are
combined In many cases with steel
beads. There is strong tendency
toward fur bags. Some manufactur-
ers are bringing them out in American
broadtail and the cheaper makers are
approxlmating this by using fur fab
RIGS or limitations.

ments and party from state funds.
Two thousand dollars was received
from the latter source. Captain
Briggs is member of the general
staff, which has charge Of all the
armories of the state, and well rep
resents Southern Oregon. In the
management of the local company,
Captain Briggs is ably assisted by
Lieutenants II. n. Elmore and Clyde
Young and several sergeants. Homer
Billings is the company clerk.
The Ashland Armory was built
about eight years ago at a cost of
$4,000, the city paying one-fourth
of this amount and the state the
remainder. If built now, it would
probably cost double this sum. The
walls need kalsomining and other
repairs and improvements. The First
company now number about seventy
enlisted men and Officers. About
twenty guardsmen are out of town
during good share of the year, at

FABRIC GLOVE IS APPROVED
Even Those Accustomed to Wear Kid
Have Declared Preference for
Newer Handcovering.

The fabric glove has found favor
with the most fastidlOus; even those
accustomed to wear the kid glove ex-
cluslvely have declared preference for
the fabric glove for general wear.
Led by the fancy kid glove, which
has had Its quota of success, the fabric
glove has begun to be decorated In
various ways. One Of the weaves find
ing favor comes from France, and,
strange to say. 1t has been developed
with all thought for an American eli
entele. 1t is an armure Of fine cotton
which has been passed through an EN-
cry process, leaving II with velyety
finish like a dull suede. II is said to
be lighter in quality than the chamois,
which is the one liked best In the heay-
fer grades.
Among the shades preferred, gray
and belize are now in the first rank
with such differences in tones as
shades In each color with white and
black and, not infrequently, combina-
lions Of the two.

will overlook in his rounds Satur-

also planning a white" Christmas
for Saturday evening at the church;
the Elks are filling baskets with
goodies to be distributed to the poor
and unfortunate; In many quarters
the Christmas spirit is in evidence,
foreshadowing very happy holiday
in good old Ashland town.
Very few cases Of actual want and
destitution exist In Ashland. There
are a few cases, due mostly to sick
ness and misfortune, and provision
is being made by the various church
es and charitable organizations to
see that no one here suffers for
want Of creature comforts at this
time.
The Red Cross has a fund which
the members are using for local re-
lief work, but are deyoting all their
energies to supplying necessities to
those in need, making no special ef-
fort to distribute toys, candy and
other Christmas gifts to the children
Of the poor. AS a matter Of fact, no
society, so far as can be learned, is
doing Just this work.
The Elks' club Is preparing large
baskets Of food to be given to such
needy families as can be located

"The men got an inkling of what

LOCAL AND PERSONAL
(From Fridays Daily
tie Free from Tuberculosis

SoNllC AVIAN
Progress in testing Oregon cattle
is reported in the Extension Service
News. The work has been complet-
ed in Deschutes, Crook, and Polk
counties, is well along in Linn and
Clackamas, and has been started in
Benton. Delay in other counties is
caused by the limited number Of
testers available. Reports on the
five counties named show that H.
734 animals were tested, of which
lO9 reacted and 73 were listed as
suspects. Less than per cent de-
finitly reacted, and only 1,25 per
cent showed any symptoms of the
disease. This is considered remark
ably low in comparison with tests in
many other states and is said by the
Oregon Agricultural college extern
sion service to indicate that the state
is relatively free of tuberculosis in
its cattle.

MANSFIELD, O., Dec. 27.-AI
experiment fraught with mighty
consequences for generations yet un
born is soon to be begun in this city
"a thriving Industrial town of 2S,
600 people and the center of one o.
the richest agricultural regions IL
the Middle West.
Here the National Child Health
council, working in cooperation
with local agencies, plans to carry
on a series of experiments with
young children and children yet un-
born, to work out plans of country
wide application in the betterment
of health and living conditions.
The health and happiness Of chill
dren of all ages shall be the concern
Of the council, according to an Off
cial announcement just made, and
the demonstration of the plans, now
forming, are intended to begin with
expectant mothers and follow Young
America up through adolescence,
whether he remains in school or goes
into some line of industry.
While Mansfield has a consider
able sprinkling of foreign-born, of
both South and North Europe stocks
the backbone Of the community in
which the National Child Health
council has planned its, work is
American. Here during a long and
honored life lived John Sherman,
long United States senator, several
times candidate for the republican
nomination for president, once Sec
retary Of the treasury, and who
rounded out his brilliant career as
McKinley's first secretary Of state.
DR.. Walter H. Brown, former
health officer in Bridgeport, Conn,
will direct the work of the council,
and the organizations which will CO.
operate with II.
No hard and fast program has
been adopted, but the wholesome de-
velopment of health education in the
public schools, the improvement Of
health conditions in the home, and
greater appreciation on the part
Of mothers and growing children Of
the conditions which make for phys
ical well-being will be emphasized in
the experiment.
A sound body as the absolute es-
sential to the building of mental and
moral well-being will be strongly
stressed by those in charge Of the
work here, 1t was said by DR.. Brown.
The work will be carried on over a
number Of years, and the results at
tanned will be given to the public
from time to time through the med
ium Of bulletins published by the
