Getting "Set' For
Duck Season
In Valley H4

,..~~CALIPATRIA, Sept. a9.-Un-
ique Signs of Captain Davis
and Mullet Island are beng
placed showing how the ducks
fly. Finney tells the auto tour
ist from Los Angeles to go
straight ahead to Finnty 5
place while Raymer is telling
them of ducks galore at his
famous haunt near here. All Of
them are preparing for a big
busy season.
Candor is compelling them
however to admit that there are
not so many ducks in Imperial
Valley now as usual at this
time, although the statement
goes with it equally true that
they can get here in a day il a
stolm starts further north or
the coast gets a bit too foggy
for flying. That is the way
of the Imperial Valley ducks
and hunters are expected to the
number of some 1900 on Octo-
Der Is, when the first shot can
be fired at daylight.

velope with a short strap a little
smaller than in former years.
LONDON-If you happen to

wooden cloth, hand embroidered,
with reproduction of the design
which prayer mats employ. 1t IS
striking and not too pretty.

always rather reminiscent of a

takes on eoachman trimming.
This is a high pompom-in this

PARASITIC very short skirts
now prevalent have caused garters
to become rather startling. A

is likely to fasten with a medallion
bearing a picture of some actor,
politician or friend.
NEW YORK.-If you would have
your tailored frock embody the

with many buttons and buttonholes.
Moreover, be sure the buttonholes
are bound with silk of a contrast
