NONE CAN EXPLAIN AURORA"
Northern Lights Said to Be Due to
Passage Of Electricity Through
the Air.

The aurora borealis Tor northern
lights) is occasionally seen in the
north temperate zone and frequently
in the polar regions. 1t is said to be
due to the passage of electricity
through the rarefied air of the arctic
zone. The Maine aurora boreaiis'
was first used by Cassendi, who, in
1921, observed one in France, and
wrote description of 1t. The "au-
rora" is periodic in its manifestations,
the finest displays being Mt Intervals
of GO years, and less marked ones at
intervals of 10 or IL years. 1t Is
also asserted that these greater and
lesser displays correspond with the
increase and decrease OF spots on the
sun. The phenomenon is generally
manifested in the following way: A
dim light appears on the horizon
shortly after twilight. and gradually
assumes the shape of an arch, having
a pale yellow color, with its concave
side turned earthward. From this
arch streams of light shoot forth,
passing from yellow to green and then
TO brilliant violet. The name aurora

,cIvaA Pic OR 4 !, CALF

In selecting birthday and Christmas
gifts forcRildren' in rural communities
why not give pure-bred pig, calf or
other-animal? This is the suggestion
of the United States Department of
Agriculture. which. with the various
States, is copductingsthe Better Sires
Better Stock" campaign. A recent
questionaire study Of the utility value
of purebred live stock showed, among
other results, that home influence is
an important factor governing the
breeding OF superior domestic animals.
In fact, it ranks in importance next to
sales, fairs, and shows, taken collect
lively. When parents show their in
terest in good stock the children are
more likely to do so.
One breeder told of receiving some
pure-bred live stock as wedding
gift from his father in law. That
beginning was an important influence,
which resulted In entire herd Of we'll
bred, profitable animals, practical
influence in the couples prosperity
and happiness.
GIFTS OF good live stock, the depart

FEARED BAD LUCK PERIODS
Axtscs Believed That Evil Fatss Ruled
World During the Last Five
! Days Of Year.

The Aztec calendar consisted Of Z
year Of 1s months Of 20 daya each,
and closing period Of five days, into
which 1t was believed all the bad luck
Of the year was crowded. No one
started upon journey during these
FIVE days, for fear some misfortune
would hefall him; no woodcutfef ven
tured into the forest to hew wood
during this period, lest WILD beasts
should devour him; the houses were
left unswept; the housewives made
no pottery vessels; children SO un-
fortunate as to be born on one OF
these FIVE days were by that very fact
predestned to misfortune for the rest
Of their lives.
The next. and among the Axtecs
the only time period higher titan the
year, was the xihuitlmolpia, or cycle
Of 80 years. 1t was held that at the
close of one Of these periods would
some day come the destruction Of
the world. .,,}..l,

pia. Once the sun had arisen, how
ever, great were the rejoicingS. Fires
were rekindled and the crisis was

waistline to the bottom of the skirt.
The back and front side had narrow
slits near the waist line, through which
r chain girdle was drawn and clasping
with p pendant buckle in front. The
selvage sides Of the material were left
open, forming o graceful rippled side
draped effect. Only two seams are re-
quired for this gown and the neck and
hem can be pccoted if preferred. This
is perhaps the most simple OF the dressy
models for the novice at sewing 10
start on. It's long graceful lines would
be lovely made in u bright colored silk
crepe for evening or dinner wear.
Many women are quite adept at en-
hroidery Work, although they would
hesitate to attempt dress. They will
find numerous ways of applying their
handicraft on the simple line gown
which will make it appear an elabor-
ate creation. Flowered figures cut out
Of cretonnc are being appliqned to silk
crepes and summer materials with
great success and tremendous prices
are being asked for ready made
frocks Of this type. Rose-coored flow
ers with green leaves on black crepe
give II decidedly "Frenchy' appear.
ancc the black gown and summer
frocks, such rs organdies or white
kcrepes, can be made charming in this
way. white frock bOrdered with
yellow tulips about the hem and sleeves
makes pretty combination. In pre-
pairing these flowers for the material,
cut just little beyond the flower in
order to have an edge to turn under,
then following the outline of the flower
bast it upon the material and catch
with unnoticeable stitches from the
underneath side of the goods.
Another garment which the home
dressmaker can make is the silk sport
costume which has q chemise dress
| similar to the ones 1 have previously
described and q separate short cape.
The cape is seldom lined but is finished
around the edge with a blast fold of
self or contrasting color. One should
by all means have q pattern for the
cape, for though it is simple to make,
it must have the correct swing to it.
Sometimes, however, these capes are
nothing more or less than two-yard
strip of material shirred at the center
selvage, to form q neck line and with
o plain strip Of material about six
inches wide attached to form turn
back lapel which extends the while
length OF the cape. This sore Of cape
is pretty when finished with fringe
as it then gives the Spanish shawl ef-
feet. There is another wrap on the
Spanish shawl type which many Of the
high priced houses are sponsoring
which is even more simple to make
than the one l have just described. 1t
is wide square of material preferably
figured silk crepe or heavy crepe de-
chene with the wide fringe sewn COM
pletely around the square. When worn,
the material is folded diagonally or to
form three points and it creates an
extremely dressy wrap.

She may use her own color schemes
and trimmings, but her silhouette must
Chew to the line.
The keynote Of the spring frock is
simplicity. 1t relies wholly upon ma
terial and line for its smartness. Hav-
ing selected handsome material, one
can follow the straight chemise lines
with the wide kimona sleeves, elimin-
ating waistline problems and the
irksome task Of setting in sleeves.
Even where the sleeve is set in, it is
a straight huge affair that requires lit
tie fitting. Many Of the new models
slip ON over the head, in which case,
placket openings and gown fastenings
ere not needed. Necks are usually the
simple batteau shapes which can be
finished with the pecot edge, if one is
unfamiliar with the bias band finish.
A gown which attracted considerable
notice at n recent New York fashion
show was cut on the simplest lines
imaginable, or it rather it was not cut
at AL. 1t was simply q wide piece of
material three yards in length with q
slash cut in the middle for the batteau

Back on the road to ormacly-that
IN nutshell tells the story of Spring
aberdashery. Merchandise has been
restored to q sane basis; prices, too,
have struck the toboggan until today
they are almost down to pre-war levels.
The silk shirt that cost $50 two years
ago is relic of the past and unless
the unforeseen happens prices never will
reach those heights again. And with
the fabulously priced shirt goes the once
prOhibtivcly priced neckwear--the kind
that once sold for $S to $40.
Today man wishing the choicest
quality of silk shirt need not pay any
more than $40 to $l2, while some ex-
cellent grades will be sold around
$3.50. With reduced prices prevailing
the return to the silk shirt comes easier
than ever and if the early business OF
spring is any criterion for the next few
weeks white silk shirts will be quite
popular.
White Silk Shirts Favored
OF course the colored and striped silk
shirts win have quite . call, but do not
promise to swamp the field. In white
silks the better grades will meet with
favor-partlcularly the baby broad
cloths and Jersey knits. Such silks
have been found to be unusually dur
Imperial Valley press., 1922-04-12

able, stand the gaff of rough laundry
work and give almost as much service
as q good madras shirt.
The broader striped silk shirts will
not be worn as much as heretofore,
although there will be a certain class
of dressers who will demand them. The
tendency is toward the pin stripes, pen
ell stripes and small checks. And an
air of refinement is shown in the pat
terms. There also is q better grade of
workmanship.
With reduced demand in the last
year the shirt tailors have been able
to give more time to the finer things
in their merchandise, such as neater
machine work and better fit. At no
time in the shirt business has the ready
.o-wear product approached the custom
tailored variety So closely as today
that is in the better grades.
Colar-Attached Shirts
Fiber silks will continue popular,
but it is not believed the demand will
be as great as in the past. This Is due
to the fact that excellent grades Of
madras shirts-b0th domestic. Or for
eign-haye replaced them.
The shirt, that promises to be worn
more than ever IS the collar-attaehcd
shirt. This season there will be shown

season. Good silks, with clocks and
other novel designs, will be worn ex-
tensively, while in the early Spring
cassimeres, camel hair and imported
worsted will get a big play. There
will be o good selection Of silk ac-
cordiOns and embroidered effects, but
it is not believed the showing will be
as extensive as in other years. The
colors will be very much like last
spring, but there will be more of tine
cordovan shades to match the oxfords Of
those tones.
Glove styles and colors will remain
very much as they have in the past
few seasons. Cape, Arabian mocha,
suede, buck and chamois in standard
colors or off shades will furnish the
bulk of variety for 1922. Spear or
embroidered backs are about the
only ornamentations that will appear.
Pearl buttons are slightly favored
over old time clasps.
No Changes in Pajamas
In pajamas there really is nothing
new. Plain and pattern effects Of
madras, percales, crepes, chambrays
soisctte, fiber silk and pure silk with
the French neck will again be in pop.
ular demand.
Soft collars, due to the introduction
Imperial Valley press., 1922-04-12

{. greater variety than ever, with more
|styles Of collars than in the past. The
workma nship in these shirts also will
be q much better grade than hereto
fore. And the two-buttOn band cuff
will be seen more frequently. Flannel
shirts also will be worn by good dress
Crs, particularly the kind Of flannel that
comes from France and England.
Neckwear prices are as low as they
have been in several years-and the
hest news is the fact that makers
have put more style and more service
into them. There win be more cravats
cut along the straight lines than ever
before. That means the silk ties will
give the wearer longer service-in fact
will live almost as long as the silk
knitted variety.
Silk Grenadines Liked
Among the most popular brands
will be the silk grenadines cut along
narrow, neat lines to fit the smaller
collars which become the vogue in
the last two years. Europe, as usual,
will furnish much material for neck
wear, but America will put the finish
ing touches to it. Switzerland, France,
England and the far eastern countries
will help dress the American.
Few changes will mark hosiery this
