Sometimes there are snaps or invisible
fastenings to aid you in your operations,

you must learn for yourself.
With the wrapper frod:. the lining be-
comes most important, for it is likely to

COATS AND cAPES FOLLOW
Coats and capes of the more dressy
type nearly all follow the general plan
of wrapping. Many of them are caught
up with buckles or ornaments, but in
other cases there are no fastenings, and
a woman holds her cape to the lines she
desires with her hand.
The newest kinionos wrap about the
figure, and sometimes wrap quite tight

These costumes suggest the uncorseted
figure, but in nearly every instance there
is a girdle or boned foundation of some
sort.

The old-fashioned wrapper long since
has gone out Of fashion.
Trim little house dresses with gay
chintz and queer floral applications have
made us forget how unsightly this par
ticular type of house gown was
But a new wrapper has come into our
lives, come by way Of Paris. where 1t
learned how to be very smart. 1t must
have originated. though, in the Far East
it is so subtle and feminine.
This new type of garment literally
wraps around the figure and. like the
problem play, the ultimate solution Is
an individual matter
This is the season of sophisticated

a different model for every individual

Embarrassing plays are the vogue
this year. but by next year they may

Vailing style in drama, instead of de-
veloping some new idea, many a good
writer goes wrong.
MY advice to all budding play
wrights is-know something of the
back Of the stage before you begin to
write plays.
IF you can't get on the stage to
act, get a job as maid or carpenter or
anything that will give you a chance
to see it from the inside and enable
you to learn the psychology of the
crowd and enable you to see how sit
uations are built up and developed"

Tallahassee Entertains
Veterans In Royal
Manner


"The Confederate Veteran, we know hin,
as he stands
Ana listens for the thunder of the far-off
battle lands.
He hears the crash of musketry, the
smoke rolls like a sea,
For he tramped the fields with Stonewali
and climbed
The heights with Lee"
THE Old Confederate Veteran, his life
is in the past,
And the war-clouds, like mantle, round
his rugged form is cast.
He hears the bugle calling DER the far
and mystic sea,
For he tramped the fields with StonewaIJ
and climbed
The heights with Lee"
The people of Tallahassee delightfully."-

United Confederate Veterans during their

AIDED a charm and sweet cadence that
have added immeasurably to the pleas
ures OF this encampment.

FARMERS COM
PLAIN OF LACK
OF Wind HERE

Farmers in this great Lake Region
are being caused no end of inconveni-
ence because of the lack of wind this
season to run their wind mills, and a
large number of them have been COM
PEELED to buy gasoline engines with
which to pump water for their live
stock, or else pump the water by
hand. Ordinarily there is more than
enough wind here at all times Of the
year to take care of all the wind mills
in the country, with lot to spare,
but such is not the case this year.
Pete Nelson of northeast of the
city took out gas engine which he
purchased from c. D. Haley for the
purpose Of replacing his wind mill
until this region gets windy again.
He said he had been waiting patiently
for wind for several months, and now
that the busy season was coming on
he didn't have time to pump water by
hand, and decided that the engine was
the proper thing to use. Many 9th
er farmers are in the same fix, and
local dealers tell The World that
there is a heavy demand for pump
engines on account of lack Of wind

Mrs. Elizabeth
eraser Passes
Away in Canada

Mrs. Elizabeth Grasser, mother Of
Andrew Grasser of this city, passed
away at the home of her son John
near Bangugh, Sask., on Wednesday
night of last week, after an illness
lasting several months. The deceased
was formerly a resident of near
Brinsmade, and was quite we'll known
in that vicinity. She was born in
Ontario, Canada, and grew to wo-
manhood and was married there.
Some 80 years ago she came to Ada,
Minn., with her husband and resided
there until the year 1888, when the
family moved to near Brinsmade,
and took up a homestead. The
family lived here until Is years ago
when they moved to Canada.
Mrs. Grasser's husband passed
away seven years ago, and since that
time she has been making her home
with her sons. Three years ago she
suffered storke of paralysis, and
from this she never fully recovered
and this is what no doubt brought on
complications which caused her
death. She went to sleep nine days
before she passed away, and did not
regain consciousness before the end.
She was 81 years old, and is survived
by three sons and two daughters,
Andrew of this city, Chas. of British
Columbia, and John Of Bangugh,
Sask., Mrs. John Ambhuel of Ada,
Minn., and Mrs. Pauline Herringer
Of Moorehead. Owing to poor train
connections Mr.. Grasser of this city
was unable to attend the funeral, but
spent some time with the deceased
during her illness a few weeks ago.

CITY GETS MUCH
ADVERTISING
FROM SCOUTS

There are few people who realize
the amount of publicity the city of De-
wills Lake is getting from the trip to
the Glacier National Park which the
Boy Scout Band is taking. The boys
are winning the admiration Of the
public wherever they are playing, and
we doubt if there is any other was'
that the city could get as much adver-
tising as it is receiving in this way.
The boys furnished the music at the
national convention Of the Fruit Grow
ers of America held at the park on
Thursday of last week, and Monday
and Tuesday of this week the big at
traction at the convention of the Nat
ional Editorial Association, at which
prominent newspaper men from all
over the United States were present.
The boys will return to Devils Lake
on No. 4 on Wednesday August End,
and it behooves everyone in the city to
meet the train with cars or otherwise
and give them the kind of send off
they justly deserve for giving this city
such large amount of national pub
licity at practically no cost to US. Ar
rangements are being made for some
kind of demonstration when the boys
return, and the bigger crowd that
meets the train the better.

PENNEY !! ! OPEN !:
|NC'A||TT TRACTS
MANY PEOPLE

The formal opening Of the Penney
store last Saturday in its new loca-
tion on the corner of Kelly avenue
and Fifth street, attracted more peo-
pie than any other similar event ever
held in the city of Devils Lake. The
store was so crowded during the
entire day that the many clerks were
hardly able to give their patrons the
attention they would have liked to.
Carnations were given away to the
ladies, and all men callers were pre-
sented with cigars. Although the
crowd during the entire day was un-
usually large, Manager Clausen saw
to it that there were enough Of both
cigars and flowers to go around, and
no one went away disappointed.
In talking about the. event Mr..
Clausen told. The World writer that
he never saw as many people to the
square foot in his old store during
the three years he occupied it as
there were in his much larger new
store last Saturday, and when he saw
the satisfied look on the faces Of the
many hundreds Of visitors, and their
looks of admiration Of the new fix
lures and the way things were dis
played, he felt we'll repaid for the
many sleepless nights he had during
the past few month months in plan
ming the new store and getting it
ready to receive his customers in a
way that he has dreamed of ever since
he started in the mercantile business
many years ago. He has store now
of which he is justly proud, and we
doubt if there is anything that can
be done to improve either the ap-
pearance or the convenience Of the in
situation: y
The glass front which is very at
tractively trimmed by ah expert in
his line and which is brightly illumin-
ated after dark is winning the ad-
miration of everyone who passes, and
there are very few who do not give
the window a second look.

TR|MBLE SAYS
CROPS IN WEST
ERN Nd. GOOD

o. J. Trimble, the popular manager
of the local yard of the Bovey, Shute
& Jackson Inc, returned last Satur-
day from trip by car which he made
to Ryder, N. D., and tells The World
writer that he never during his resi-
dence in North Dakota saw better
fields of grain than those which
were in evidence all along the road
part of the state, and he pre-
diets that the bumper crops the
farmers will harvest this year, es-
pecially west of Minot, will more than
make up for what they didn't get dur
ing the past few years, and that if
grain prices are anywhere within rea-
son this fall every farmer in the Minot
district will not only be able to pay
such debts as he contracted during the
drouth period, but he will be able to
salt away enough hard cash to take
care of his wants for another long dry
spell, if one should come on.
Mr.. and Mrs. Trimble, Madge Allen
and Martin Camerud of Flora, N. D.,
all left here by car last week. Miss
Allen stopped at her home at Towner,
while the balance of the party con-
tinued ON to Ryder, where Mrs. Trim
+ble's folks live. Here the party took
in the big annual celebration held in
that city on Wednesday of last week,
and on Thursday took in another
big celebration in Minot. On their
return trip the Trimble's were accom-
panied by Miss Laura Griffin, sister
of Mrs. Trimble, who will visit here
for two weeks.
Mr.. Trimble told the World writer
that there is no city on the entire trip
that appealed to him more than Ryder,
which city shows more real life and
enthusiasm to the square inch than
than any other town of it's size in
the state. The editor of the Ryder
News, c. R. Hurry, who has been there
only three years is a go-getter in
every scene Of the word, and ever
since he landed there he has devoted
large amount of his space every
week in saying nice things about his
city and the surrounding country, and
has done more than his share to pro-
mote cherefulness and optimism
among his readers than any other edi-
tor in the state. Not only does he
use his newspaper in boosting things,
but personally he is the most popular
fellow in the city, and never tires tell
ing of the advantages of the Ryder
country. Mr.. Trimble insists that if
every editor in the state was as en-
thusiastic over his city as Mr.. Hurry
is, it would not take North Dakota
long to jump into first place as the
most popular community On the
American continent in which to live
from every standpoint. Hurley is a
fellow who forgets all the draw
backs of his community, and only
talks about the attractive features
He is one of the speakers at the con.
vention of the editors to be held here

EDM0RE TO HOLD
MONSTER MAR
kETDAY AUG. 4

One Of the biggest events in RAM
sey county at the present time is the
Market Day which is to take place
in Editor Harry Johnson's town,
Edmore, on Friday, Aug. a, and The
World predicts that it will be the
biggest success Of any like event ever
held in the state. The folks at Ed
more have a way of never doing
things by halves, and whenever a
celebration is held in that hustling
city, every man, woman and child re-
siding there does more than his or
her share to make it the biggest day
possible. No one ever attended a
celebration of any kind at Edmore
who did not feel more than glad that
he had come, and who did not feel
we'll repaid for the time he
spent in getting there. The
business men there have a way Of
making a visitor welcome, making
him feel at home during his stay
there, and creating the desire to
come again.
No regular program for the day has
yet been given out, but Editor john
son tells us that we can assure our
readers that all who come can ex-
pect something out of the ordinary
in the way of entertainment and ex-
citement.
