A RE you handy with the needie"7
For the woman who is, but VINO
finds general dressmaking wearisome,
with it's demands that she adapt her.
self to the varying moods OF her Gus
toners, there are many less exacting
and more lucrative side lines and
specialities.
Most every woman likes to sew for
little babies,' declares one woman
who has chosen to do so. land the
making of layettes is well-paying
business / believe in giving the GUS
toner a chance to help. If she wants
to, for often she, too, likes to have
just hand in making the little gar
mentS."
1t is a good plan for the layette-
maker to avoid confusion by stand
ardizing her business, making, say,
three different types Of outfits She
could have their descriptions printed
on correspondence cards, to send in
answer to inquiries and to insert in
some well-known local paper or wOm-
ans publication. The cards might
read something like this: Number one
Ia cheap outfit, durable and we'll
made, but very plain; Number two
a medium priced outfit made like
number one, but with lace and little
tucks; number three-an elaborate
outfit, made from an extra fine quail
ity of goods and hand embroidered.
The woman who is "handy with the
needle" might make small boys suits
her long suit. Handwork, desirable
on many types of wearing apparel, is
particularly apropos here. In fact,
the woman who can do handwork is
lucky, whatever her specially. She
can make an excellent income en-
broidering bedspreads, dresser-scarfs,
table-runners, tablecloths, napkins and
centerpieces. At Christmas time she
will be able to use the small
pieces of leftover linens for doilies,
pin-cushions and couci-cushions. She
might embroider some of these, and
simply crochet pretty edge on others.
A "make-over" shop is usually more
profitable than a regular dressmaking
establishment. The prOprietreSs may
buy old clothes of good materials, less
WORKOUT than out-of-date. These may
be cut down, combined If necessary,
and made over into up-to-date models.
The public member, darner and sew
er-on-of-buttons. too. is almost sure to
snake good" financially. She should
procure space in some well situated
shop, preferably dyeing establish
ment, and display sign which might
read something like this; Public
Clothes Mender-S ews, Mends, Darns
From Socks to Shirts. From Gloves to
Gowns-Yours by the Minute.
In any of these projects, little ad-
vertising at the beginning through
newspapers and personal communities
! ton win help. But the woman who
sews-and specializes- need not wor
ry about her market.

od-time giants who tried to scale Mount
Olympus and get at the gods by piling Ossa on
Pelion?
The headline says 40 miles"-which needs some
explaining. It's like this: AS matter of fact
Blaurock and Erwin have climbed considerably
more than 103 miles, Their specific feat here con-
sidered is the climbing of each of the 46 peaks of
$4,000 feet and over in Colorado. That means
more than 644,000 feet Of mountain climbing
bit over 103 miles. But they have climbed some
of these mountains more than once and in addi-
tion they have climbed scores of other high Col
orado peaks. Nobody knows what their total is in
feet or miles or mountains
But Blaurock and Erwin did not of course, climb
$4,000 feet Of elevation every time they assembled
one of these 46 peaks It's pretty certain however,
that each peak represents at least mile Of YER
teal climb probably some of them two miles, If
the average is put at mile and half, they
climbed SO miles Adding mile for good measure,
it is evident that Baurock and Erwin move in the
highest circles if indeed they are not the original
'men higher up" One of the pictures shows
Blaurock leading two companions up steep
ascent.

Meaning of "Zion''

Zion is a form of the Hebrew word
Siyyon. 1t is perhaps from an older
word meaning ito be dry" ito set
up or ito protect" Arabic analogies
favor the meanings hump" summit
of a ridge" and so "citadeI." Zion
was properly the southern part of the
eastern hill on the top Of which the
temple was built.

had climbed Kit Carson, the

Blanca best of all-he says
1t "has character, is friend

asked Blaurock this inev>
table question:
And which peak IL the
most interesting to climb?
Which would you go back to
time after time just to
scramble up over the old fell
low"
He thought for a moment.
Longs Peak is good
climb. 1t has interest at ev-
cry turn. That is true, too,
of many of the peaks in the
southwestern part of the
state. But of the whole list.
I think I should go back
oftenest to Sierra Blanca
than any other one. That
peak has real character"
Now, Pixies Peak is the
most famous of the Colorado
Rockies-and probably the
best-known mountain in the
world. Why? Simply be-
cause the most people have
assembled it; they are num-
bered by the millions. You
see, there's a cog road to
the summit and an automo-
bile road and the ascent by
foot is no more than q tedi-
GUS climb. But from the
scenic viewpoint Pixies Peak
is simply a vast mass of
rock.
"De gustibus non est dis
putandum"-there is no dis
putting about tastes. whether
in mountains or what not.
But Blaurock certainly
spoke well when he said,
Longs Peak is a good
climb. 1t has interest at ev-
cry turn For Longs is
reckoned third or fourth
favorite among the noun
taineers of the world-and
they come from beyond the
Seven Seas to ascend it.
