to the council how he came to get on
the work where the Dawley brothers

was doing the work before the Daw-

job whatever. He also promised the
council that in the future he would
take care and not get on any job in

OLD TIMERS ARE
VISITORS HERE

George Fl. Reed, traffic and
freight agent at Mecca, 60 miles
northwest of here, and the first man
i'll charge of the freight depot at
Ell Centre, back in 1905, dropped in
unexpectedly yesterday afternoon to
visit some friends and also to at
tend to some personal business
here.
Accompanying Mr.. Reed, was B.
D. Locke, freight and traffic agent
of Tillook, Oregon, who was the man
who succeeded Mr.. Reed in 1903,
Mr.. Reed who is on his way home
from very enjoyable vacation
spent on the west coast, brings the
report that business conditions are
assuming normalcy, and he looks for
a banner year.
In an interview with Mr.. Locke,
he brings to light many amusing in
cidents concerning the size and ap-
pearance Of the buildings and homes
in 1908.
When I arrived in Ell Centre in
1908, to relieve George Reed, freight
agent, most of the homes and build
ings consisted of tent structures,
there were no such thing as cement
and stucco buildings. In the year
| was in charge of the Southern
Pacific office here, there were a
few of the present day buildings in
course of construction. The build
ing which now houses the county
offices, was nearly completed when
[ left El Centre in the fall Of 1909.
AS | look back over the years that
have intervened, l am very much
pleased with the remarkable pro
gress made in Ell Centre, and L look
for this city to forge ahead and be-
come one of the largest commercial
towns in this section of the coun-
try"
Mr.. Locke, who has been accus-
toned to the cool climate of Oregon
seemed to bear up admirably under
the rays of the burning valley sun.
Mr.. Reed and Mr.. Locke are leav-
ing Ell Centric this afternoon to re-
sumo their duties i'll their respec-
tive cities, and hope to be able to
visit here again i'll the near future.

a. wonderfully crisp and attrac-
tive looking finish and does up
beautifully. Plain gingham, the
color Of the plaid, trims the spread
in still another way with a flower
motif in the center, accomplished
by tie gingham being cut and ap-
pliqued in place.
White and unbleached voile
spreads are rather new and they
launder beautifully. The hems of
the spread are hemstitched and
thrceincN tucks are placed ~above
the hem, while in the center there
is set y cotton-fillet lace motif or
an applique of some sort Of thin
embroidery. Sometimes the spreads
are trimmed with bandings of voile
in a plain color, which is rather at
tractive.
The English chintz spread is
clean and crisplooking and is
made like the gingham spreads
French dimity makes a charming
spread. 1t has a scalloped edge
and an embroidered motif in the
center. But a dimity spread re-
quires an widespread of colored
satine, which brings up the price
considerably.
Printed spreads from the Far
East are quite popular and are not
very expensive. There is the Per
sian spread, for instance, of soft
eoloring, bordered with the "life
everlasting" palm-leaf motif, rem
iniscent Of the old Paisley shawl.
Turkish spreads of white linen are
machine embroidered i'll yellow silk.
Chinese cotton crepe spreads made
up with white bandings and Japan
ese silk spreads are popular.
The so-called Dolly Madison y
material is a new version of GRIN
kled bingham, having an. inch-wlde
crinkled stripe and half-inch flat
coiored stripe. \ scalloped edge
finishes these spreads. They are
to be had with heliotrope, pale blue,
Mandarin blue, pink, yellow, green
and red. stripes. If little salt IS
added to. their first wash water the
colors viii remain fast.

DRESSING on BEDS Always A GREAT
PROBLEM, .GINGHAM BED SPREADS
POPULAR, VOELE ALSO BEING USED

Il is difficult to imagine just
what the old,fashioned housekeeper
would say to The invasion Of. the
mpdclm bedspread She might close
her Linen closet door upon them, for
they are not pure linen yet
many Of them are charming. and the
modern housekeeper welcomes them
Internationally. The dressing of
beds is, always a household problem
and it is apt to be one of the most
expensive to meet. Modern spreads
are economical, 50 by all means let
us adopt them.
If you have not a gingham bed
spread, procure one as soon as pos
sible. This spread is made to fit
the bed, with the corners left open
for the bed, posts at the bottom
and it is made long enough to Gov
er the pillows at the top. From
the edge OF, the bed, a deep Span
ish flounee, with deep hem falls
to within three inches of the floor.
At the lower corners, the open
in9s are tied together by a smart
giugham bow three inches wide,
hcmmed Gu the edges.
The trimming consists Of three
bias bands, stitched above, while i'll
the center of the spread a large
initial is done in cross-sticth in
linen 4loss, the color of the plaid.
The plaids may be chosen in any
size liked and -the color, of course,
must match the decorations in the
room. The spread is easily and
quickly Numbered.
Variations Of the gingham spread
are achieved by means Of different
trimmings. Narrow white muslin
bands, ike the bias bands, are used
on one spread, and there is cir
cular piece in the center upon
wlizil the cross-stitch initial or
other Design is embroidered, while
the edge may DC feather-stitched in
place, Tape trimming with narrow
ball fringe. Again, tire edge may
be trimmed with ~&n old-fashioned'
riclraek insertion above the hem,
while the pointed braid is stitched
on the edge of the hem. This makes
