Is the Thing.
BY HELEN FOX,
COsmODOlltan News Service.

NEW YORK, March %. - New
York shop windows today are gay
and colorful with Easter finery.
New York women are hurrylng
through the streets, carrying long,
flat boxes; round, deep boxes, and
packages of every description.
Tucked away in little bags are mys-
FERROUS little things that in some
strange manner will become part u
My Lady Casters costume.
Let us CLIP few pages off the
calendar and hurry through the
days to The Day-Easter Sunday.
Phantom Parade.
It really is not hard to imagine
phantom parade slowly strolling
down the avenue-Fifth avenue, or
course. A glorious sun is shining,
and it's brightness is reflected in
thousands Of tophats and bright
faces.
Here COMES My Lady Easter.
She Is extremely charming-more
lovely than she was in 1923-or any
other year.
She is dressed in black and white.
Her tailored costume is probably
beige and brown-but she is not
wearing it today.
Her coat-a ravishingly simple
thing. 1t Is wrap-around of
black maroccan' crepe, lined with
white crepe. She holds it lightly
about her and it outlines her slen-
der figure. Perhaps it is soft
white ermine that finishes it at
the throat. Or perhaps it rs fin.
ished with two wide bands of wire
ribbon-one white and the other
black. She is little too far away
to make sure.
My lady Easter drops the hand
that is wrapping the coat about
her and fishes in a small inside
pocket for her daintily embroidered.
soft white handkerchief. Thus she
gives us a glimpse of the frock
beneath. The material is soft black
charmeuse-or possibly MORE. 1t
is a straight tube dress, narrower
than ever. Also it is a little
shorter. About the batteau neck
is something white-possibly the
ermine again or the ribbon. 1t is
beltless and little white button
holes run all the way up and down
one side.
Where FrOck Ends.
Where My Lady Casters frock
ends, midway between the ankle
and the knee-or perhaps even a
little longer than that-shows the
delicate web of her hose. They
are of an understandable shade
drawn out Of the sky at dawn. 1t
is flush rather than an actual
shade. 1t is the tint of dreams.
Simple black opera pumps encase
My Lady Casters slender feet. Her
long and tapering hands are gloved
in white, with inconspicuous black
and white embroidered backs.
Above her adorable face, wreathed
with Spring and Easter smiles, is
small, snug-fitting hat. 1t might
be a cloche. but it isn't. 1t is
Egyptian in design, rising abruptly
from the face, widening stiffly out
and standing squarely away from
the ears. On one side, pinned
straight up and down, is a softly
lustrous large pearl.
My Lady Casters face wears no
other ornament than vivid lips and
a demure dimple. Rouge for the
cheeks is passe, since pallor is the
thing.
High up on the collar is the one,
spot Of color. Nesting in the soft
white of the ermine is a bouton-
niere--a fresh and fragrant red
rOse-the shade of her lips.

ASKOV WINNER IN
GAME WITH BEROUN

The base ball game played on
the Askov diamond Sunday be,
tween Beroun and the locals was
a close and hard fought game
throughout, the final score being
3 to 2 in favor of Askov. No
scores were registered on either
side up to the sixth inning. One
double play was made by Beroun
and but few errors were made
on either side.
Karl r. Won Schenk pitched for
Askov and had the situation well
under control except in one in
ming when it looked as though
things would blow up. With one
man out and second and third
base occupied Won Schenk walked
one, filling the bases. The next
Beroun slugger picked out a good
fast one and landed on it square;
it was fine line drive to deep
right center, 2 men crossed home
plate on it and a third one was
coming full steam ahead and
reached the plate just in time to
have the Askov catcher, Carl Jen-
sen, jab him in the ribs just be-
fore he stepped on the goal and
was accordingly out. That end
ed the excitement as far as Be
roun was concerned. The score
now stood 2 to 2. In the next
frame Anker M. Simonsen got to
first, stole second and on a fol-
lowing play they tried to catch
him at third but the throw was
about 4 feet too high and Anker
raced on to home plate with the
winning run.
j, Albert Johnson was umpire
on strikes and balls throughout
and gave universal satisfaction.
A Beroun man called the bases
and was rather weak on his de-
cisions but as there was nothing
serious at stake no argument was
put up.

John Sorensen, another of my
old days acquaintance. / was
pleased to shake hands with r.
Petersen and found that he is
still holding down the corner
store that was built in the days
when Askov was still Partridge,
and he looked as though he could
stand the pressure for long
time yet. / called on A. Grave
sen in the bank and got a look at
L. c. Petersen at the school
meeting Saturday night, but l
think he slipped out of the back
door before | could get a chance
to introduce myself. So here is
hello Petersen. Do you remem-
ber me? Holden Hansen was
taken on the home run as / did
not know he was there before
the last day. ! also looked over
Mosbek's nursery and must say
there surely has been put in lots
of work on that place in years
passed by. Of new acquaint-
ances l must name Jorgen r.
Petersen. ! can still see his
smiling face. 1t seems to say:
Just keep sweet.
Yes, | sure enjoyed my visit
to Askov and hope | may live
long enough to make it over
again.
Greetings to everybody.

A FOUR DAY VACATION
TRIP SPENT AT ASKOV
By l. r. Van Zelm
Q Western Newspaper Unioa

My friend, Christ Sorensen, in
vited me to take a trip with him
to Askov in his car. Askov sound
ed familiar to me. l knew
would meet some old acquaint-
ances so / accepted the invitation.
We left Hutchinson at $50
Thursday morning and arrived at
Askov 1:30 p. m. The first place
we turned into was Andrew p.
Jessen's. Those people did not
even ask us if we had had dinner,
but simply set the table and
made dinner the second time.
The funny part of it was that
they got the chance to do the
same thing over again on Satur-
day for the reason that Sorensen
and | got lost out in the wilder
ness northeast of town on ac-
count of a sign pointing west
which read "7 miles to Askov''. !.
If | had anything to say out
there the sign would read: Il
mile to Miller ranch and then
stopw because we got into a place
where even a Henry" had to
back out.
About the first thing | asked
for when we got to Askov, was a
man by the name of Chris Fred
eriksen, that knew had lived
there once. | soon found out
that ne was still on deck. Yes,
more than that, found him with
a nice farm, a fine wife and a
bunch of happy children. About
16 years ago. ! guess | was about
the first man to welcome him to
U. S. A. l was glad to see that
he had made good and ! enjoyed
my visit with him very much.
He told me, how he is getting
away with some of the big stone
piles on the farm and / sure
think that it is good way. He
just put some dynamite down in
the ground, set a match to it.
Then up goes the earth and down
goes the stones. Too bad i for
got to ask him if the stones went
down as fast as the earth went
up.
Amongst old acquaintance |
renewed was Johannes Juhl. He
did not know me at first, while
his wife knew me on the spot.
They invited me for a trip to
Sturgeon lake Sunday. We had
a fine trip, but no fish.
| also had the pleasure to meet
