LATEST STYLES IN HATSON BOARDWALK
Palm Sunday Brings Out Crea.
 tions at Atlantic City

Atlantic City, N. J., April 14. - Millinery sparSled in vivid hues in the Palm Sunday review of the Board walk yesterday. which was in striking contrast with the conservatism in eol- ors or frocks. There had been ex- pectancy, from the way fashion ex- perts had been toutinS tine swing of fancy to dazzling tints that gowns would rival Oriental shades now popu- lar in hats and scarfs.
 The Vogue in Frocks
 Fans, browns, blues and blacks ruled in frocks. There were few that came under the classification of spring, or lighte. tints. Tailored suits. of the sports variety, were in two pieces, coats with long flat or roll collars, many bare of trimmings, oth- CTS with edging of braid or tracery embroidery. But the few one piece frocks that appeared were of stream- line design, and usually worn without belt or girdle. These were touched with bright bands of trimming around the bottom of tEe skirt or as side panels.
 Millinery Shapes
 The new millinery shapes were of the inverted flower-pot type, bright in shade and light in trimming. They fitted snugly over tresses and hid cars, but the millinery was in all styles. wide and narrow brims, teancs and tHrbams, tho latter almost invariably in mixed shades, and there were not a few that looked like solid beds of artificial flowers.
 The younger clements. many from schools here for the Easter vacation, lent charm to the parade morning 1 and afternoon. The day was perfect, l the mercury at about 30 degrees, | with light, flaming breeze from the | sea. The sky was f'awless.
 Many of the paraders wore sprigs ! Of palms and fresh blooms were worn by many maids and matrons. The number carried would indicate | tEat sports canes are regaining popu- larity with women. The fad Of the \ silk scarf is gaining in favor. At times the throngs crowded the promc- made to capacity and roller chairs were in solid lines.
 The avenues were filled with auto carrying Pennsylvania and 1 New York tags, indicating that ad- vantage had been taken of the in- yiting weather for run 10 the shore.

where the Blue Bells Bloom

Some day Wen wander back again
To the pleasures that have been;
Where memory always calls
In tn valley, in the fall
Where the Blue Bells bloom.
How oft has memory in sweet re-
frain
Caused longing, caused a pain
While on a foreign strand we
roamed
And turned our footsteps down the
trail to home
Where the Blue Bells bloom.
There's a lack-luster in our eyes,
That, perhaps, will leave by and by,
When we go tripping down the
trail
In the sweet covered dale

The basketball season which has
just ended has been most success
full one for Mountain Home High
School. Through the high standing
of the basketball team, the school

school holds class "B" basketball
title for the South Western League.
That the basketball players have
done a good thing for the school cam
not be denied and for that service
the school ought to reward each in

to reward the players might be sug-

would be to awar dsweaters and let
