 yond any doubt that at the moment there is no fabric of greater importance than flannel. And there is every reason to SUD- pose that it's vogue will continue for many months.
 Its most successful use is in the simple one or two-piece frocks and since it comes in a wide range of plain colors as we'll as checked and striped designs it has endless pos abilities.
 Although designed for the south the frock illustrated could easily be copied in less conspicuous color for immediate wear. For the orig inal model, powder blue flannel is chosen. The bands which constitute it's only trimming are of white. The effect is amazingly smart. With this is worn one of the new hats made of Roman striped ribbon which repeats the acolors of the em- broidery.
 These hats are often matched by scarfs and when worn with simple white frocks or suits produce an en- semble that is quite as chic as one could desire.
 Many of the prettiest of these flannel dresses are of yellow com bined with white or black and have youthful charm that is most ap- pee ling.

IF RED, IT'S RIGHT

Eugene Field wrote: Just any color, so long as it's red, is the color that suits me best" Dame Fashion subscribes to this sentiment at the pres- ent time. You see red used for whole dresses. They are mostly the rust shades and brick, but still they are red. Black IS very often trimmed in red and so Is white. Sometimes the vivid shade IS seen in the hat only as the color of your purse or scarf When in doubt whether or not your costume is fash iQnabie, introduce little red and 20 on your way feeling serenely confident that 1t has at least one of the outstand- ing style features in it's makeup.

WARM WEATHER HAS STARTED
TOURISTS MOVING
Traffic Is Now at Its Height; Wis
consin Roads and Lakes Are
An Attraction.

MADISON-Warm weather has
brought the tourist industry" to its
height in Wisconsin. There are
more varicolored license plates on au-
tomobiles in some sections of the state
than the black and white, indicating
the car owners are not from Wiscon-
sin. Highway officials here believe
Wisconsin roads as well as lakes are
an attraction.
Near the Illinois Wisconsin line,
the green number plates of Illinois
outnumber the Wisconsin black and
white as tourists from the south
pass through toward the cool green
of the northern woods. There is a
generous sprinkling of cars from
other states also, with many from
coast states mixed with the incoming
stream of cars
Wisconsin is ready to receive them.
Resorts in all parts Of the state have
been receiving reservations for
weeks, and all have their shingles out
to lure the tourist.

west" where tourists left millions of
dollars last year, has been preparing
for an even bigger tourist traffic this
summer. Indications after the first
weeks of warm weather are that
their expectations will be more than
fulfilled.
Wisconsin has ever appealed deep
ly to the lover of nature Over the
great middle west, it always has cast
a spell of an enchanted vacation land.
Such unrivaled beauty spots as the
Little Berkshire hills in Dane coun-
ty, the orchards of Door peninsu-
la and the deep wooded districts of
the north are equaled in few other
states.
Good gravel highways lead direct
to any spot tourists may wish to vi
sit. The great north and south
arteries are standing well under
pounding of thousands of visiting
cars and the east and west routes are
in even better conditions.
Civic clubs in all parts of the state,
resort owners and promoters have
been answering more inquiries and
directing more tourists to Wisconsin
than ever before. Rice Lake, adver-
tised as the Entrance to Vacation
Land" has had more tourists in its
camp so far this year than any pre-
vious season. Other camps in all
parts of the state have been almost
as successful.

Better Times Ahead.

Experts say that important pro-
blems are confronting agriculture.
1t is estimated that the population of
the United States will be near l50,-
100000 souls within twenty-five
years and these experts are wonder
ing whore the food they will eat is
coming from.
Conservatively estimated, it is
said that 3S,000,000 acres will have
to be added to the nations present
actual crop land to support a popu-
lation that the United States will
probably have by 1850.
That can mean only one thing
that the demand for products of the
farm is going to increase constantly
and that the consequent reduction
of supply will operate for the benefit
Of the farmers Of the United States.
The tillers of the soil everywhere
have been downcast and heavy of
heart Being dropped suddenly out
of cloud of affluence that came
with the war and remained for few
years afterwards, it is little wonder
that farmers became discouraged at
the sudden change which took away
their war profits and made it prac-
tieally impossible to make much
more than q living off their land.
But they should not be too impa-
TENT The troubles that have beset
agriculture for the past few years
are going to pass, and when they do.
agriculture is going to come into its
rlghtfal place in the business world.
such rs it never iij before.
It is but natural 70 reason that in
due time, farm products are going
to become scarce on account Of
farms being abandoned and farme
being attracted to the higher wages
Of the industrial centers This con
dIuon, combined with increased de-
mand due to the constantly growing
population, means better times
ahead.
The depression is only temporary.
The law Of compensatons is going
to bring the pendulum back
All farmers need to do is to be
optimistic and keep pegging away.
There is a better day coming-and
when it comes, the tiller of the soil
is going to be sitting on top Of the
world where he belongs. FIX.

The People See Il.

Brownie of The Journal is inter
ested in more things than roads. In
his swing around the state he keeps
his eyes open on matters of con-
servation, too. For he knows that
our roads will avail US little, so far
as our real prosperity and our
future as a playground is concerned,
if we continue to dissipate our re-
sources. Here is the word he
brings back:
Everywhere there is a growing in
terest in conservation. The man
on the street and the man on the
farm are beginning to see it. Cities,
towns and counties are realizing that
once the beauty spot is gone, it is
gone forever. Places adaptable to
park purposes are being sought out
There is a growing realization that if
the public does not care for its
future, no one will
People Of northern counties are
beginning to see the costs of destruc-
ton The swing is back toward a
sane and effective forestry policy.
And a policy which preserves for us
as much as possible Of the wild life
that is left us People want de
velopment, but they are passing out
of the era in which they are willing
to get it at the expense of destruc-
ton.
That is the most cheering news
that has come in from the state in
a long time For the trouble with
conservation has been that the mass
of the people did not care enough
about it. They had not yet seen
the necessity. Now that they do,
it would appear inevitable that we
should have action.
The forestry amendment is to
come up at the fall election. There
is that splendid monument to the old
Wisconsin, the Northern Lakes park,
with its destiny hanging in the bal
anee. We are at the parting of the
ways in our future as a game and
wild life state. And in every
county beauty spots that could be
preserved to the great gain Of the
people Of that county will soon pass
unless something is done.
The desicion we make now must
be our decision for all time. If
this growing sentiment for sane and
sensible conservation is marshaled in
sufficient force, then we need have
no fear of the future Milwaukee
Journal.

The Reward OF Work.

The newspaper reporter who won
the Pulitzer prize of $1,000 for the
best newspaper story written in 1928
proved that hard work and sustained
effort has its reward
The reporter was Magner White
and his story was written for the San
Diego Sun about the eclipse of the
sun. For thirty nights he poured
over scientific books, seeking all of
the technical knowledge he could for
the job that lay ahead
An eclipse such as the one of last
year takes place only every 1870
years. He realized that it was his
one bic chance; that he would never
have another one like it, So he pre-
pared.
There is a lesson in this example
for all of US. He demonstrated what
everyone knows, but too little appre-
ciates, that nothing worth while
comes to us except through honest
effort; and that to attain a goal, it is
necessary to make preparation COM
mensurate with the task.
A total eclipse of the sun is
visible on the earth every 1870 years,
but our span of years here is much
shorter than that
When we set out upon our life's
work, little realizing what a compar-
atively short time we are to be here,
how many of us decide what our aim
in life shall be, and then set about
as thoroughly to reach it as this
newspaper reporter did in the ac-
complishment of his task?
Very few ever pay any attention
to the experiences of those who
have trod the same path-the
technical knowledge required to
make a success of life. Most of us
plunge heedlessly and thoughtlessly
into the great experiences, never
knowing the pain, the sorrow and
the heartaches that it holds for us.
If those on the threshold would
only tarry for a few minutes at the
feet of experience and wisdom and
learn what lies before them. how
much more wonderful this world
would be.
But youth seldom does and so
often learns its lesson at great
cost.-Ex.

Living OFF Coxernment.

An authority on the subject says,
there are 100000 employees on the
payrolls of the federal and local
government and 100000 former EN-
ployes drawing PENSIONS. 100000
persons who are being provided by
government with their living.
There are Al to ~ million persons
in the United States painfully en-
ployed" SO that every u citizens
are supporting one in office.
The amount paid for services by
government-fed state and local
represented 6ia percent of the
national income in 1922.
This sum was nearly one-half that
paid out in wages by all manufac-
turing plants in this country in 1921.
This sum represents an average
payment Of $91 by each person over
occupation
