! Mr.. Dawson had many interesting
experiences and at least three mar
row escapes from death The clos
est call was in 1918, in the ancient
French town of Chalons, a Boche
aviator dropped bomb so close to
Mr.. Dawson that he was temporar-
lily stunned by the shock of the ex-
plosion.
Mr.. Dawson visited the American,
French and Italian fronts, had per-
sonal talks with the King of Eng
land, Premier Clemenceau of France,
General Pershing and many generals
and statesmen, spoke at many mass
meetings in honor of the American
Red Cross. one of which was held in
the Coliseum in Rome, and made a
very complete inspection of Red
Cross operations.
When Mr.. Dawson started to raise
a few hundred million dollars or
twenty million persons for a great
cause. he finished the task success
fully. He formed success habits
early in his business career and
kept to them. Mr.. Dawson demon
strated this when. as chairman of
the Red. Cross War Council. he
issued a call on December 16, 1917.
Ito the five million members work
ing with us loyalty today" and ito
the ten or fifteen million members
who will join us before Christmas
Eve" He was cocksure he would
get that number of new members,
and he did. He said at the time he
issued that call:
The Red Cross has given me
new conception of America and the
spirit. 1t is with the zeal
of convert that invite the Amer
lean people to come in with me
under President Wilson and make it
the nationwide organization that is
demanded by these times"

"No fashion comes out Of the air"

"No fashion comes out Of the air."

"The present mode is an adaptation
Of the lines of the fourteenth century.
"The fourteenth century was period
of transition. In the very early days

Gradually that was changed until 1t

craze for curves and points, so we find
the Ounce cap in evidence as quite
proper headdress.
ut was during the sixteenth century,
while Louis XIV was on the throne, that
the most radical and importance changes
came.
"Corsets appeared, dresses were strong
~ stayed and hips were built out over
strong, wide frames.
Louis XIV was young. He loved
beauty. The story is that one Of his court
favorites, a woman with beautiful face,
was quite deformed about the hips In
order to hide the defect. and yet achieve
an effect Of lovelness, the lady began
the fashion Of the very small, stayed
waist and hip frames.
1.-The bourfant dancing frocks of our
present debutantes are an echo Of this.
THE Fontanges head dress was also a
fancy Of Louis XIV. 1t was during a
fete that a young woman caught her
hair on the branch Of a tree. In order to
hold the disarranged lock in place the
young woman removed her lace garter
and put it around her head with her
curls putting loosely out about 1t.

Some one is going to see the barrel

coy tive-room home. This miracle will
be accomplished 10y the writing of magic
words But it will not be necessary to
call In Thurston or Kellar or Conan
Doyle to explain this evident bit of
sleght Of hand.
The magic words which will trans
form the barrel into a pretty little five
room house will be the five best reasons
why one should OWL his own home In In
dianapolis. Whoevo- submits those best
reasons, first dep osit,ug them in the bar
rel, which will lie right in front of the

Complete Exposition next week, will win
the house.
The exposition opens Monday at noon
at the State Playground, In the Manu-
facturers' building. The Indianapolis
Real Estate Board, which Is sponsoring
the exposition, reports that exhibits are
rapidly going into the building, that the
decorations are being placed and that
the whole exposition floor is a scene of
bustling activity from morning till
night.
Everything for building and furnish
ing a home will be shown at the exposi-
ton. The displays will embrace every
building, furnishing and keeping. Ex-
cellent programs have been arranged for
the week.
Civic organizations, community clubs.
and like groups in indianapolis are in
tensely interested in the Home Complete

interior decorator and artist, has been
speaking before many clubs in Indian
apolis the past ten days on the cominG
exposition, outlining the programs AID
other features of the big show. She re-

The clubs which belong to the Indian

many women's clubs in the city, and
practically every other organization is
interested in city Identification and city
betterment through better horles. For
this reason the Home Complete Exposi-

laughed Raggedy Ann, Your little dress
and bonnet was given you for q real
good purpose and let us just suppose
that suddenly you would have them

''Oh that would be ever so nicer Title
Toad cried as she clapped her little hands
together and rolled her large eyes.
"Humm." unused Raggedy Andy.
Maybe 1t would be nice for her, Rag
gedy Ami"
NO sir. Indeed not!" said Raggedy
Ann, "For why. Just cause And I will
tell you what I believe, sposin' you have

he'd see your pretty dress and bonnet
! as plain against the brown mud"
Then I'd hide up against a tree
trunk" said Title Toad
Yes indeed" Raggedy Ann laughed
softly. THAT is just what you would
do, lilly Toad, and that is why, Dear
/ old wise Mother Nature gave you your
little brown bonnet and Dress She knew
very well that If anyone tried to catch
you, you would either jump into the
water and hide on the brown muddy bot
tom or you would scrootch up against
a tree trunk And CONTINUED Raggedy
Ann, Mother Nature wishes you to
work for her and she gave you these
1rown rusty grey clothes to protect
you!"
''HummT' Title Toad unused.
Now do you see?" Raggedy Andy

she wiped her eyes entirely dry with

Mother Nature that she gave me these
brown rusty gray clothes and I'm going
right home and explain 1t all to every
one Of my six thousand Pollywog

will never be ungrateful"
And after thanking the two rag dolls
Title Toad hoped away down the little
path towards the pollywog play pool IN
