OBSERVATIONS
BY TOM SIMS

is filed in this country. Proving that

should not take saxaphohe lessons.
For every man who would like to
paint the town red there's one who
would like to paint it blue.

banks of the Potomac. Maybe that's
the dollar George threw across with
interest.
If Ford has too much money why
doesn't he try raising chickens?
He who gets to the top does it by
staying on the level.
It's sweet to be remembered-be-
lore you are gone.
One reason for taking "obey"
from marriage vows is they forget
which one promised to do it.
The man who kicks about every
thing will kick about nothing.
Something might be done at

The Muscle Shoals proposition
seems to have landed on the rocks.
Perhaps the fight over a tariff on
peanuts is peanut politics.
The only thing certain about
April weather is its uncertainty.
Too small a navy might endanger
the permanent wave in our flag.

picnics get together.
Our 100000 bachelors believe

MAKING WOOL BATS
FOR HOMEMADE QUILTS

A number of inquiries have been
snt in to the Agricultural College ut
Fort Collins regarding the making of
wool bats for comforts and quilts.
The washing, cleaning and carding can
easily be done in the average home,
but several woolen mills prepare the
"hats" from unwashed wool at very
reasonable price. One mill quotes the
following price: 80 cents q pound for
the making Of bats which include
washing, cleaning and carding the
washed wool to make pound Of bat
ting. The bats most generally used
are from to s pounds in weight.
Farm women who may be interested
can obtain the name Of the mill by in
quiring of the Extension Department

The bigness Of the sleeves is only an
excuse for giving actual grace and line
to that portion Of the frock, and the
sleeves are center OF the design OF
the costume as whole.
Around New York just recently a
great many dresses OF this general

mostly made Of duh and heavy crepe,
or Of shiny black satin Of one of the
standard and reliable weaves. But the
sleeves are always very big and fioppy.
and they manage to give grace ia
the costume which Is distinctly new
and which. II has been noted. is some
thing which adds totally novel char
acter to the gowns Of this season.
Many Of these dresses are made
without any trimming whatever and
most Of them are In black. They are
the smartest Of all. beyond any doubt.
But here have been seen frocks made
In the most brilliant of colored crepes
and satins, which have held their place

BE FAIR-TO YOUR FEET;
WEAR PROPER FOOTGEAR

The high French heel and silly
"spol he'll" 30 much worn the last few
years by women, both old and young,
| is beginning 70 lose its popularity.
Comfortably -fitti>g shoes with square
or military heels are to be the fayorite
this coming season, so says Dame
Fashion. Cramped toes and other
styles Of shoes not conducive to good
health are to be taboo.
The following suggestions regard
ing shoes may be of interest II you In
tend to invest in q pair.
| First Of all have your shoes fitted to
your feet. A good shoe should have
the following lines.
Straight line from heel to toe.
Room for toes-no crowding.
Broad, low or mdium heels and fexi-
BILE soles.
High heels throw the body out Of
line and out Of gear.
High heels elevate the arch Of the
foot but do not support it.
! Marrow shoes cramp the action Of
the toes while too short shoes cause
enlarged joints.
Having secured proper pair, the
next thing to do is 70 take proper care
Of them: Never let them get run down
at the heels. Build up the run down
part at once. Rubber heels do not run
down Is easily as leather heels and
add much to comfort.
Shoe trees keep shoes in good
shape when not being worn and can
b purchased for . small sum.
| Keep tbs shoes well polished. Dry
thoroly II you get them wet. Simply
