PAISLEY CRAZE IN PRINTS
Novelty in Georgette Crepe, Crepe de
Chine and Canton Crepe is
in Demand.

Paisleys in their present vogue are
being used in geOrgette crepe. crepe de
chine and canton crepe chiefly. Some
poplins are offered in them, a sort of
satin voile, and also some velvets, the
last named to find a place in combina-
ton with plain velvets. or with silk
materials, as well as for making bags,
and other accessories.
Bands, borders and insets of the gay
Paisley prints are noticed on plain dark
costume blOuses.
The Paisley craze points the way to
a likely revival of other prints such as
foulards and radiums for next summer.
These have been out of fashion favor
for some time, but leading manufac
turers of high-grade silks are showing
them in their spring stock, along with
Persian and Paisley prints which seem
destined to add novelty to sports ap-
parel in many new ways.

The citation describing Woodf1ls exploit in
killing 10 Germans in two hours is rather sketchy
Here's WoodfiIls own account of the performance
at least the high points of it:
"We were partly screened by low fog, but the
moment we appeared on the crest the Germans
began to pour in shells and machine gun bullets.
The enemy entrenched and also hidden by
heavy green woods, and was hard to locate
"Quick action was needed. l signaled several
men near me to get forward and I rushed ahead
and worked my way across an opening Of about
$50 yards by crawling from shell hole to shell

unimproved road, from which 1 could crawl up

a short distance when located another machine

to the gun and snped five of it's crew and silenced
the gun.
1 located third machine gun position, and, using
the same method of approach as previously ap-
piled I worked my way to flank position and
then killed five Of the gunners There was heavy
firing coming from the right front which caused
me to take refuge in the enemy's entrenchment,
and as 1 dashed into it I nearly jumped two
Germans who were crouching there. One of them

Delicate Fragrance.

When preparing the hair for cap
that is Intended to cover the crown of
the head, the hair should be dressed
very loosely and off the nape of the
neck. 1t should, of course, be allowed
to fall softly over the ears, otherwise
the charm of the boudoir cap will be
very much lessened. If these caps are
perfumed the hair is left with a deli
cate odor, but care should be taken
that only a very good perfume is used,
and one that is not too strong.

THE SILHOUETTE OF THE DAY
Straight Model Predominates; Bout
fant Effects Confined to Those
for Young.

Except for evening wear, the straight
silhouette is still predominant. Bout
fant effects, even in evening frocks,
are generally confined to those designed
for young and slender figures. The
low-placed waistline is very much fea-
tured on straight-line dresses and many
swinging panels help to simulate a
width which does not actually exist

a collar that might be worn high or

The English have a trick of making

milk is poured over it just as water is.

WEEKLY LETTER FROM THE
STATE DEPARTMENT OF EDU-
CATION.

1t is the duty of the trustees of the
public schools to see that an adequate
supply of good fuel is always on hand.
In a great many instances schools are
placed at a considerable disadvantage
because of either lack of fuel or the
fuel provided is hardly fit to burn
Green wood will not burn. Therefore,
where wood is used it should be gotten
out in time for it to dry. Further
more, the teacher and pupils should
not be required to get their own wood.
The law holds the trustees responsible
in this matter and gives them the au-
thority to have fuel tax placed on
the district by the Board of Super
visors.
Section 1858, Hemingway's Code,
reads as follows: "On petition of a
majority of the qualified electors for
the public school district in a county
the Board of Supervisors shall levy a
tax on the property of that district
to provide fuel and other incidental
expenses of the school in said dis
trict"

and finally with general debility
and breaking down of the physical
organs, the end of suffering came. At
the breaking of the day as the dark
ness passed away, her spirit took its
flight to realms above, to be with the
Christ she had loved so many years,
free from earthly cares and sorrows.
Grandmother Black leaves four
children to mourn her loss: Mrs.
Vienna Barry, of Brighton. Tenn;
Mrs. Lottie McLarty, Judge Black
and Lyman Black. of this county. Hei
husband and four children having
gone on before her.
Mrs. Black was a good Christian
woman, having given her heart to
Jesus in early life, whom she faith
fully served up to the end. She was
a member of the Presbyterian church
and her remains were laid to rest in
Old Cambridge cemetery at the church
of her childhood.
