THE BUSINESS NEWs9

Every time you buy loaf of bread,
or a necktie, or a gallon Of gasoline,
or a-book-your life touches the wild
ening circles of business. So the more
you know of business news the better
you are equipped to get the most from
life.
You'll find the real news Of business
in the advertisements. Look them over
in these columns. They are the mes
sages of business to you. They tell
you of the new and wonderful things
created for your convenience or
pleasure-of merchandise gathered
from the myriad markets Of the world
for you and your family.
1t is well worth while for you to
keep abreast of this important busi-
ness news. If it were not important,
good merchants and successful manu-
facturers could not afford to pay mon
ey for the privilege of telling it to
you.
Read the advertisements. You will
find it an interesting and Informative
as well as profitable practice. Do it

HEALTH SHOES FOR
WOMEN SOUGHT

Health shoes for women are now
much nearer to a general acceptance
than ever before as a result of the
bringing together of some fifteen OF
the leading national organizations OF
women to form the WOmen's Founda-
ton for Health.
The aim of the Foundation is to car
ry on the work of the health shoe de-
velopment started by the Y. w. c. A.
during the war for the purpose of
developing a shoe that would meet
the requirements Of women engaged
in various activities in the field, and
now it is intended to foster the pro-
duction of shoes that will meet the
needs of women in various civil oc-
cupations who have foot troubles Of
any kind.
The specifications of the new shoes
as far as have been determined are
as follows: They must
(1) Be adapted to the different type
of feet and (a) conform to the outline
of the normal foot; (b) allow room
for the toes; (c) be made with a low
heel providing a firm base from toe to
heel; (d) be made with a flexible
shank.

THE JAOUETTE APPEARS
AS A SWEATER

The jaquette in its various forms
has created a stir, and in due course
of time it makes its appearance as a
sweater. This knitted jaquette is al
most certain to have a good run. Many
will turn to the jaquette for novelty
and find it at the same time thorough
ly practical.
Small and large can wear it with
equal success. The almost surplice
closing and the narrow shawl collar
are two points that become the mature
figure, without affecting the youthful
either one way or the other. Some
jauuettes button at the low waistline,
while others have continuous band
at lower edge, and they slip on over
the head although the front is opened
to the waistline. The heavy brushed
wool jaquette takes the place of coat
in the sportswoman's wardrobe.
The Russian blouse, as it is called,
is slip-on, snug fitting at the hip or
waist-line, and blousing decidedly
above. A trimming motif down the left
side gives the Russian note. Some
times high collar, fastening with
buttons and loops, conveys the idea
still more definitely. But many Of
these Russian blouses have just the
round neck, or V opening with
small square collar.-DTy Goods Eco

Buckwheat production is estimated
for Maryland this year at 10000 bus.
against 171,000 last year, and 222, 700
for the five-year period 1916-1920. Del

erage for the same period Quality

of 100000 bushels is forecast for the
State against 100000 in 1921, and l.

Delaware crops was grown for mar
ket.
Glover seed yielded in Maryland on

PANEL SHAPED Wells
FAVORED BY PARIS

In wells, long, panel-shaped styles
take precedence, draped either direct
ly across the front or caught to one
side of the hat and twisted around the
neck in such fashion as either to COW
er or to leave the fave uncovered at
will.
French manufacturers also report a
good demand for the Old-fashioned
Chantilly lace semi-circular wells,
which are worn draped across the
front of the hat, just covering the
eyes. The newest models in this type
are featured with a very heavy Chan
tilly lace border which almost entire
ly conceals the eyes and gives the eff
feet of fancy dress mask. This style
obviously originated with the Venetian
balls which have been held for the
last two seasons at the Opera.
With regard to veil decoration, bor-
dered effects in self-tone, in heavy,
filled-in patterns, and also in sheer
guipure effects in self-tone are the
note.
Metal decorations also are very eX-
tensively employed, and entire metal
wells are in good demand, notably in
small plateau effects.
Chenille decorations are still favor
ed, used chiefly in the form of very
small pinhead dots in conventionaliz-
ed geometric patterns. Black chenille
dots on brown wells are among the
most favored combinations.
In cOlors in wells, as in millinery,
shell brown and black are most in de-
from Paris Office of

FLY THE FLAG OVER SCHOOLS
Fly a Clean Flag
By EDGAR A. GUEST

This heard the Old Flag say.
AS passed it yesterday;
Months ago your friendly hands
Placed me here to wave above
you and yours, heard you say
On that long-departed day;
Flag of all that's true and fine
Wave above this house of mine;
Be the first at break of day
And the last at night to say
To the world this word of cheer;
Loyalty abideth here.
Here on every wind that's blown
Ger your portal I have flown;
Rain and snow have battered me,
Storms at night have tattered me;
Dust of street and chimney stack,
Day by day, have stained me black,
And I've watched you passing there,
Wondering how much you care.
Have you noticed that your flag,
Is today a windbloWn rag?
Has your love so careless grown
By the long neglect you've shown
That you never raise your eye
To the symbol that you fy?"
Flag on which no stain has been,
'Tis my sin that you're unclean,
Then 1 answered in my shame,
On my head must lie the blame.
Now, with patriotic hands,
1 release you from your strands,
And a spotless flag shall fly
Here to greet each passerby.
Nevermore shall flag Of mine
Be a sad and sorry sign
Telling all who look above
I neglect the thing love.
But my flag of faith shall be
Fit for every eye to see.
Have we a patriotic legislature? I
should say not, or else there would be
some provision made in the school
budget whereby every school in Del
aware would be provided with an Am
erican Flag. The future of our coun-
try depends upon the girls and boys
Of today. How much more effectively
hey could be taught patriotism if each
and every day of their school lives
hey could see Old Glory floating
above their school.
Which is more neglectful to pass a
school and see no flag or to see a
rag? Recently as I passed
he large brick structure that it call
ID the Harrington High School the
windblown rag that was raised over
he building seemed to be repeating
he words of this Flag in Edgar A.
iuests's poem which I have submitted
or all patriotic mothers and fathers
f our girls and boys, to read. 1t has
een reported that there is a good
lag in the school. If so why does
uch neglect be allowed to continue?
f there is no Flag, who is response
lie, mothers, fathers, teachers, prin-
ipal, superintendent, State Board Of
ducation or the Legislature?

international Truck
Leads in Sales.

Optimism of the most ardent var
iety prevails in the motor truck organ
ization OF the International Harvester
Company" states Wells Levens, man
ager Of the st. Cloud branch. s"The
Springfield plant Of this company,
manufacturing the speed truck exclu-
siYely, has been running full capacity
day and night since January LIST, and
the shipments for the past month Z
coed those Of January 1921 by several
hundred. And that is the real test OF
a commercial machine ever more than
a pleasure car - the demand for the
truck by the public. A truck is always
bought because of the work it can do,
beauty Of lines and other features
which attract buyers to pleasure cars
are never considered in the purchase
of trucks. Dependability, power, and
durability are the three requisites
which a successful truck must have,
and the fact that INC trucks lead all
others in sales in convincing proof Of
the place the truck has earned"
Meanwhile, construction is being
fastened on the new International
truck plant at Fort Wayne. This plant
will be the largest exclusive motor
truck factory in the world and will be
fitted with the latest and most scien-
tific equipment throughout.
