A froek of this material, suited to girls
from seven to fourteen, is pictured
here. It will be noted that it differs
very little from present styles and Is
easy to make. It has a plated skirt
set on to plain bodice, having little
fullness at the front, which is managed
by gathering the front pieces along
the shoulder seams. The long sleeves
are finished off with bias bands OF
the Bingham, bound with tape. The
collar is cut and bound in the same
way and smaller collar of white
goods is worn over 1t. The girdle and
a bib front are cut In one and the
girdle buttons at the back. Small.
slit pockets, set in at each side,
are bound with tape and five little
pearl buttons, set in arrow under each
pocket, make prim and pretty finish.
The dress of plain -chambray, with
boomers to match, meets the needs OF
little girls of three to six. 1t Is made
with plain skirt, gathered onto a
short yoke, and has short sleeves with
turned back cuffs. Gaylv cOlOred
coarse linens make very durable
dresses of this kind.

Neglected Industrial Possibilities
Of the South.

d. A. Tompkins, the father OF the
cotton-oil INDUSTRY, who built his for
tune on, his inextinguishable faith in
the Industrial possibilities of the
South, was fond of quoting this little
story about Georgia funeral, says his
biographer, DR.. George Tayloe Win
ston, in "A Builder Of the New
South"
II attended funeral once In Pick
ems county, Georgia. 1t was a poor,
one gallus' fellow. They buried him
In the midst Of marble quarry; they
cut through solid marble to make his
grave, and yet little tombstone they
put above him was from Vermont.
They buried him in the heart of a
pine forest, and the pine coffin was
imported from Cincinnati. They bur-
led him within touch of an iron
mine, and yet the nails of his coffin
and the iron in the shovel that dug
his grave were imported from Pitts
burgh. They buried him by the side
Of the best safeguarding country on
earth, and yet the wool in the coffin
bands and the coffin bands themselves
were imported from the North. The
South did not furnish thing on earth
for that funeral but the corpse and
the hole In the ground. There they
put him away and the clods ratified
down on his coffin and they buried him
in New York coat and Boston pair
of shoes and a pair Of breeches from
Chicago and a shirt from Cincinnati,
leaving him nothing to carry into the
next world with him to- remind. him
of the country in which he lived and
for which he fought four years but
the chill blood in his veins and the
marrow in his bones"

If over the phone the price, perhaps, is
the best qualification. Oranges should
be chosen by weight, as well as grape
f:uit. The fruit may or may not be
all edible; If the skin Is heavy there
is not much left after peellng, as the
peel is of little value for eating pur-
poses. The oranges that are heavy
with seeds cannot be called a good
purchase. By testing one of each OF
various prices and weighing the pulp
after peeling and seeds, If any, are
removed, one may have a means OF
comparing values and Of judging of
the right kind of purchase. AS to quail
ty, that elusive something which may
taste like the aroma of flowers or be
as tasteless as water is hard to choose.
SO really the old proverb "the proof of
the pudding is in the eating" is the
only real test of a fine orange. The
Florida orange is usually much thin
ner skinned than the California navel,
but Is often full of seeds. However
one will not sacrifice flavor at the ex-
pense of removing few seeds. Or
anges are not at their best until after
Christmas and are usually cheapest In
February and March.
Orange Souffle.-To the whites of
three eggs add small pinch of salt
and beat until stiff, then gradually

en- whites, turn into a baking dish and
cook in dish of water until it puffs.
| Spread over it the pulp of three or
anges, cover with the remainder of
the egg whites and set in the oven to

to remember when using oranges that
the pulp becomes bitter if cooked at =
high temperature.

SENIOR OUTING

The Vocational Senior Class Of

termed the most delightful event of
the school year. Owing tn the fact
that the weather was perfect and es-
pecially TO the absence Of the juniors,
the outing was made much more en-
joyable.

was made In little over two hours.
After resting a while the party visit
ed many historical places, including
a big sycamore tree which, II Is said.
Daniel Boone hid behind and from
which he killed an Indian.
The lunch was simply "scrump-
tious." II consisted Of hot coffee. pi-
mento, Jelly and meat sandwiches,
and bananas for dessert Cold drinks
were also available. The most in
teresting thing, however. was not the
eats nor the historical places, but the

are located there. The Government

were there. some Of the party riding

Normal was sure to win, for the way
the Normalites started batting in that

TO win. In this one frame alone
they registered four doubles and one
triple for four scores. Owing TO the
absence Of Antle, Wicker did the
pitching for Normal, and his work
on the mound was just as good as his
