Among the new suits presented
for fall wear there are several new
materials seen. One of the most
popular is marleen, a soft lustrous
fabric on the duvetyn order. 1t
comes in many pretty shades in
addition to the usual navy and
black. French blues and all brown
shades are very effective in this
material.
Here is a trim and girlish suit
made of French blue marleen. The
skirt is a straight. plain model but
an inch or two longer than the
spring skirts and the coat is one
of the new lone models trimmed
with loose tabs front and back.
Gray squirrel makes a pretty con-
trast as a collar, cuffs and tab
trimmings.

Let Us Know Before We Speak.
New Hampton Gazette)

In the stressful. times Through
which we are passing there has been
and continues to be, much loose
thinking, loose talking and loose
writing. The average person is in
a frame of mind TO blame anything
and everything.
The Gazette has received a letter
from vexed taxpayer which tells
us that the farmers of Iowa will be
put to a useless expense Of many
thousands of dollars next year on ac-
count of the wide-sled law. He says
that changing the old sleds or buy
ing new ones will make this COM
pulsory and needless cost.
Now, the fact is that the law
does not require man to make an
old sled wider nor does it compel him
10 buy a new sled that is legal
width. 1t merely says that no new
sleds shall be less than the required
width. A man can run his old sled
the way it is and as dong as he wants
to; but if he does buy new sled
and uses it on the highway it must
be of the required width.
In this connection it should be
remembered that the laws of Iowa
are made or sanctioned by men of
the farming industry, for they are
in a majority in the legislature. If
the farmer members of the General
Assembly do not want bill to pass
and become law they have the
votes to prevent its doing so.

COAL vein STRUCK
AT FREEPORT.
DecOrah Man Prospecting for Coal
Strikes Vein -, Feet Thick at
Old Paper Mill Dam.
DRILLING STARTED
LAST FRIDAY
Coal Appears to be of Good Quality
And Burns Well According
To Reports.

1t looks like old WinneShiek coun-
ty is going to prove one of the lead
ing mining centers of the country,
with oil and coal prospects in view.
During the past week Mr.. Chas.
Mollart of DecOrah, who recently
secured the right to drill on the
Gross land at the old paper mill dam
at Freeport, hired Helmer Hendrick-
son, the driller, to set up his machine
and proceed to drill for coal. The
work was started Friday, and yes
terday az a depth of about 45 feet a
2l2 foot vein f soft coal was struck,
and it is Of good quality stuff too.
Some of It was taken to Decorah and
certain anes tried it out in their
stoves and it burned fine.
Just what further prospecting and
plans for mining has not been dis
closed at this writing. At any rate
there is coal in the ground at Free
port. That fact has already been
established. How much is another
question. The first experiment in
drilling is very encouraging, any
way, and next to the oil question
here, the coal question is receiving
the most attention.

PAVING GOES AT
$2.45 SO. YARD
Fifteen Miles on Grant Highway in
Buchanan County Let at
Cheap Price.
SHOWS CONTRACTORS
ARE COMING DOWN
Fourteen Bids Were Entered for the
Job, and Concerns all of
High Standing.

The Buchanan county board of sup
pervisors last week awarded the con-
tract for hard surfacing 1856 miles
of the Grant highway, or between
winthrop and Jesup, according to the
independence Bulletin-Joumal, the
winning contractor being the Western
Asphalt Paving Corporation, of Sioux
City, at a price of $2.43 per square
yard or $25,660S6 per mile. This
company submitted the lowest of
fourteen bids entered. The bidders
were concerns of a high order, ev-
cry one Of them being strong, res
ponsible companies. Mr.. Campen OF
Omaha, assistant chief engineer for
the federal government, Assistant
Chief Engineer Coykendall Of the
state highway commission, and AS
sistant District Engineer Goodrich
were among the outside officials pre-
sent at the letting. Engineer Nash
of the Illinois Central's office in
Dubuque, also was present. His
company is not against the proposed
hard surfacing, although it will cost
the company for assessment and also
in freight traffic if the paving work
is done.
The successful bid, $2.43 per yard,
is below what had been expected by
considerable margin. All who had
watched the proposition consider it
an exceptionally low bid. The lowest
other bid heretofore made in Iowa
was S2.52 in Clinton county. Our
freight rate here is zoe more. and
that fact makes a difference of lOc
per yard in the price, so that when
compared with the Clinton price it Is
that much lower in reality. Engineer
Campen, the federal man, says it was
the lowest paving bid made in Iowa
since the primary road law went into
effect.

MIR. FRED j. ROSENTHAL
business place now, and has been at
the head of this sore ever since.
In honor of the event Mr.. Rosen-
thai is opening up big special an
niversary sale today which will con-
tinue the balance of the week.
Another item of interest in con-
nection with the anniversary is the
fact that Mr. RoSenthal has taken
his sons int partnership with him
and the f i'll be known as F. j.
Rosenthal Sons in the future. This
is fitting recognition of the
young men who have been his valued
assistants for a number of years.
Mr.. Rosenthal was born in the
Province of Posen, Germany, and has
been a resident of the United States
and Decorah for 40 years, coming to
this community direct from his birth
place, and has been one OF our re-
preventative citizens ever since. His
stoce has been one of the represent
ative high class grocery stores OF
this city and northeastern Iowa, and
the firm has carried only the very
best line of goods obtainable which
has given them a reputation for
excellent merchandise far and wide.
The thirty five years of business
activity seems to have fallen lightly
on the head of this firm, as Mr..
Rosenthal is as active and attentive
to his large list of customers as he
was 35 years ago, and many Gus
toners who started trading with him
then are still with him. Mr.. Rosen-
thai has been one of those merchants
who has practiced square deal in
business and as a consequence ne
has built up a large and prosperous
business with satisfied customers on
every hand.
Mr.. Rosenthal has contributed his
best efforts for the upbuilding and
advancement of Decorah during these
thirty five years as one of her lead
ing business men, and he has lent his
aid to every worthy cause, and by
so doing he has made scores of close
friends and every one of them join
Public Opinion today in extending
most profuse congratulations and
best wishes to Mr.. Rosenthal on his
anniversary and it is the hope of al
he will be permitted to celebrate
many more anniversaries as one Of
Decorah's leading and influentia
business men, and it is the hope the
new firm Fred J. RoSenthal & Sons
will flourish for many years to come

AUTO PLATES LOWER
State Accepts Bid for 1928 Numbers
at 100000.

Des Moines, Iowa-In the opin-
ion of several state official the state
of Iowa should make its own auto
mobile plates. 1t is probable the
next general assembly will be asked
to make provision for this and the
state board of control will be given
an appropriation to utilize in estab-
fishing an automobile plate factory at
one of the state prisons.
For the plates being used this year
the state expended approximately
100000. The contracts for the 1923
plates were let just this past week.
The state was enabled to get much
more advantageous price this year
than heretofore, so. that the plates
for 1923 will cost about 100000. The
same firm, Adams Stamp and Sta
tiOnery Company of st. Louis, which
has had the contract heretofore, was
awarded the contract for 1923.
The state of Michigan makes its
own automobile plates at its states
penitentiary, and the warden of the
prison there was in Des Moines this
past week and put in a bid on fur
nishing Iowa's supply of plates. His
bid was a little higher than that OF
the st. Louis firm, however, and he
did not land the contract.
However, the Michigan prison auto
plate industry appears to be a sue
cess, and the chances are the next
Legislature will make provision fol
Iowa to go into this business.

town.. The cast and chorus have
been drilling faithfully under the
leadership of Miss Bergeson, assisted
by Mrs. Altflhsch and Miss Thomp-
son, and a production of finish and
charm is assured.
A hint of the plot may be obtained
from the following synopsis.
Two cousins, Rose and Betty, live
together in Limericktown under the
guardianship of Judge Hooley. Rose,
supposedly the elder of the two, in
herits money from a ricn American
uncle and for this reason is being
wooed by Capt. Pomeroy Worthing-
ton. In order TO "show up the emp
tiness of his affection the girls de-
eide to change names. The captain,
however, makes up his mind that
that is just what viii do. The in
evitabe complications ensue. The
situation is finally happily cleared
by the arrival and intervention of
Ezra Hicks, retired farmer.
The first week in April is spring
vacation after which there will be
just eight weeks of school.
Baseball will be coached by Mr..
Lynch. Decorians will remember the
excellent teams turned out by him
some few years ago. The following
