more mature years, are uneven Tn length, some portions of them hitting the ground and other. parts of them escaping that area by many inches. There are panels and trains that trail away while the draped portion of the gown itself Is apt to wend its way high, leaving it to some overhanging @rea to finish the line and supply the space that it leaves open and free.
 Sport dresses are all short, along with their street sisters. They are often open at one side to allow of freedom in walking, and they are made in every respect to suit the outdoor demands of the average young lady of the day.
 The fact Is that because of the di- versified lengths of modern dresses, every type of young woman can be suited to the last and utmost degree. If she likes hers short, then there Is some rhyme or reason for her having them thus in all instances. If, on the other hand, there Is some reason why hers should be long to suit her | figure or her temperament, then she can do them in this wise and be per fectly accepted by the community and those who stand for the proper ways of fashion as dictated by smart society and smart designers, who set | the styles.

LENGTH OF THE SKIRT

How many of you are going to sing nraises about the shorter skirts TOT street wear? Yes, your numper IS legion. And you are right to WISH to dress in the way that shoWs you at your best. Short skirts are ce! built to show them off, to demon strate that they are the only ones eminently suited to the generation that now calls itself youthful.
 Well, the fact is that your street skirts can be of all sorts or snort ness and show as much of your iowes 4 extremities as you deem wise ana fit. The tai1ors of smart street dresses and tailored suits are saying that ten. eleven and twelve inches are the measurements, depending largely upon your height ana the general outlines of your lnalVlou~i figure.
 All suits are being made short enough for walking without any re- 5strictions included in their shaping and making. And this is true whether they are parts Of costume suits. or tailor-made suits, of street dresses or of coat frocks. The street ruling for the length of skirt is all the same-they must be short and comfortable and good looking in pro- portion. They must be adjusted to the best uses and needs of the Amer ican girl.
 But then we come to the dressier clothes-to evening dresses and at- ternoon frocks for tea and any of the other functions that girls find inter esting in the latter hours Of the day. These skirts are longer and they have a wide latitude, depending upon the girl her tastes and the type of entertainment which her dress is de- singed to grace. Some of them-and this is largely true of formal eve rect contrast to the skirts that the young lady has been wearing all day long. But then the ideas for these styles, and in order to keep them true they must be made to touch the ground or trail along, and no one has the least desire to interrupt the truthfulness of >the design nor it's relation to the period which has been It's inspiration.
 Full skirts are long. touching the floor all the way round their mani fold widths and whether they are edged with lace to make them trans parent around their lower edges or whether they carry the thickness of their stiff materials right to the floor, they still retain that quaint and old d-fashioned air which fits them into the period designs that are re- tained so faithfully in their pristine freshness for the modern young miss to wear and make perfect, as shown by the setting off of her strictly straight and modern figure.

 Richard was to come to dinner this evening" He had said that he had an engagement that would take hlm away about nine. There would be plenty of time for her to talk to him of her meeting Paine and of the mans request to be allowed to call on her. Yet, somehow, she did not feel like talking to Richard about t. Why should she? He did not tell her of all his affairs. Why should she tell him of hers?
 When she reached home she learned from Mrs. Bates ~that Muir had telephoned during her absence.
 He told me to ask you 1T you could see him this evening, the housekeeper explained. But he says if you have anything else on nano, Qo not hesitate to tell him not 10 come"
 Winifreds only answer was to hurry fo the telephone and call up Muir's apartment. Mrs. Bates, ing ering within ear-shot, heard the eager young voice and smiled wltn satisfaction, then shook her head as if her second thoughts brought re-
 "Yes-do comem Winifred begged. q have missed you, Donald. 4es- Richard will be in for dinner, put ne has to leave at eight forty-fiVe to attend a meeting of some sort that always happens on 1uesudyS' nine o'clock will do beautitully. Goodbye till then!"
 The girl went to her room to dress for the evening. She found nersel1 singing happily as she made her toilette She had so much to be thankful for! Richards adoration-,, and her love for him; Donald s friendship and her affection for him. And he was coming tonight!
 Her song stopped abruptly. She stood for a long moment looking at her reflection in the mirror. 7The il ought of Donald had brought to her cheeks a brilliant color, ana her eyes seemed brighter than usual
 But no-that was ridiculous. ohe only looked so happy because DICK and Donald were both coming to night. No wonder she was happy. And she missed Donald lately. Strange that she felt no resentment at his absence% She used to be vexed with him when he stayed away so
 But that was before she was enl;, gagged to Richard. That maoe all the difference in the world. once she had actually thought she mlght learn to care for Donald. ~-But she had not loved Richard then. She hao rot known what love meant In those far-off days. They seemed years away now. Yet it was not so very lorg since she discovered that sne cared for Dick-the man she hao promised to marry. x
 She drowned slightly at the tace in the glass. All the brightness hau gone from the eyes and much or the color from the cheeks.

FUTURE SMALL TOWN
Viewed by One Who Had
Seen the ms and Outs of
Many Small Centers.

Two men got to talking about
the future of rural life the other
day. One of them was an elderly
man who had seen the ms and
outs of country town life, and had
lost some illusions. The other
was young, and full of new pro
jects.
"All this stuff Of yours about
rural clubs and marketing associ-
ations and new organizations for
the country folks, is all right on
paper" said the older man, and
these ideas will work where you
have a lot of progressive and &C
tive people"
But the trouble is that in a
lot of those towns, nine tenths of
the progressive people cleared out
when they were young. That left
behind a set of folks who are all
right and | think the world of
EN-. But most of them haven't
much go ahead TO them. They
don't seem to have the push to
take up schemes like yours and
put them through
To this the young fellow re-
piled: Your idea was right up
to a recent date. But I've been
watching these country towns
mighty close for the past five
years. | have seen how the boys
and girls are taking hold of this
club work, and know what they
are going TO do
"Of course the low prices on
farm stuff for the past two years
has hurt. But the young crowd
think that will adjust itself. Any
way. we are keeping a lot of
young people in the country of
the go ahead type that you speak
of. Just as quick as they get to
running things they will show a
lot of progress. And lots of the
older people are just as wide
awake and ready for new methods
as they are
Which of these two men was
right? The News banks on the
young fellow, and believes his
faith and enthusiasm are typical
of the new spirit that is evident
in the country towns among both
young and old.-Hurley News.

CHICKENS SMOTHERED
Almost Entire Flock of Pedi-
greed Birds Succumb to
Smoke at Phelps Farm.

Sunday night, Feb. 4th, L. j.
Kopf of Long lake near the Haz-
en- resort, wishing TO make his
chickens a little more comfortable
for the night, put a pan of hot
Goals into the poultry house. Mr..
kopf is known around Phelps for
his splendid flock of thorough
bred Ferris strain White leghorn
chickens. Somehow the litter on
the floor of the house caught fire
and, though il did not burn. it
smouldered all night filling the
poultry house with smoke. In
the morning when Mr.. Kopf came
out 10 the chicken house, a sad
sight met his eyes. About $50 of
his flock of some over 200 beauti-
ful birds had suffocated during
the night. Those that were still
alive were weak and showed the
signs of a hard night. The hens
had been laying well and TO be
killed at this time of the year
means a loss of many hundred
dollars.

FLEECE EN- ON WOLVES
State Claims 1t is Paying Big
Bounty on Wolves Caught
in Michigan.

The state of Wisconsin has been
leeced out of approximately $40
600 by a dishonest gang of wolf
hunters who have obtained scalps
in border states where there is
little or no bounty and brought
them into Wisconsin to get the
$50 bounty, declares w. +. Bar
Der. chairman of the conservation
commission. in a letter TO w. t.
Gray. Ashland game warden.
This letter. says the commun-
ication, is to advise that you see
the county clerks and town chair
men in your district and caution
them against paying bounty on
any wolves unless subsection two
Of section 29.60 particularly is
fully complied with; that is that
the party claiming the bounty
must bring the carcass of the an
imal TO the town chairman. Also
caution your town chairmen TO
take their time and not hasten
the payment of any bounties un-
duly and grant the authority to
the claimant TO collect bounties
until they are fully satisfied that
such animals were killed within
the state Of Wisconsin"
For a number of years the
practice of bringing wolf hides
in from Minnesota where the
bounty is only Sl4 and from Mich
igan where no bounty is paid, has
been going on according TO the
conservation men. The latest
move is TO ship the hides in from
Montana where the bounty is but
-, it was added.
The bounty law states IN part:
ANY person who shall kill any
wolf cub between the first day of
March and the first day of No
vember next following shall be
entitled TO a reward Of 81, or any
mature wolf at any time $40, to
be paid by the county wherein
said wolf was killed. A reward
for the killing of any wolf or fox
shall be paid out of the state
treasury equal TO that paid by the
county"
Convicted violators of the coun-
Is statute will be prosecuted TO
the full extent of the law, de-
clares Mr.. w. 7. Gray, who is
communicating with the town
chairmen of this district, inform
ing them Of the stand taken by
the state commission in the mat
ter.

Sunday Feb. 18th a bunch of
young people went out to the
Hazen resort to have dinner and
a jolly time in the open. Just be-
fore dinner a number of the men
of the party went out to try the
hill with their skis. One of the
first TO go down was Rudolph
Cook, the teacher of the Camp
One school. As he neared the
bottom his ski struck an obstruc-
tion in the form of a boat all
covered with snow. This of course
threw Mr.. Cook into the air and
he landed on his back on the boat.
The shock TO his system was bad
and the injury to his back was
very painful. He was brought
back TO Phelps on a toboggan and
at time of writing was still abed
but it is hoped that with the use
of a cane he will soon be able 70
be around.
Thursday afternoon Feb. Sth,
the Congregational ladies aid met
at the home of Mrs. Hugh Hess.
In spite of the bad weather there
were 30 ladies present. After the
business meeting and a time of
fellowship, refreshments were
served TO the ladies. The aid is
planning a full year of active
work.
Sunday afternoon at $50 o'clock
Emil Paugels and Miss Emma
Handel were married at the home
of Rev. Chaplin. The young couple
will live with Mr.. and Mrs. Hamm
for the present.
The Thursday night Bible class
will meet this week Thursday at
s o'clock mill time at the church.
The lesson for Thursday is 1st
John l and 2. The choir will have
practice directly after the meet
ing.
Miss Lima Mccormick had a
party for a number of the young
folks Friday night. A good time
was enjoyed by all.
Miss Lucille Leppla left for Ed
gar, Wisconsin, Monday Feb. II,
after a six weeks stay with DR..
and Mrs. Weed.

to the records of the local en-

for nearly 200 men are on hand.
No material shortage is evident

The female division reports a
