1t is important to have it becoming
from every viewpoint
Becoming.
For instance, it is seldom that a
hat looks we'll from the side and
back as 1t does from the front Or 1t
may be that the side suits the shape
of the head remarkably, but the other
views are not so felicitous. When
picking out a new Spring hat, there
fore, take time to be sure that 1t suits
the contour of the head as we'll as
sets off the features, the coloring OF
the skin and complexion to best ad-
vantage. Let the hat contribute to
style and good looks and not be hand
some in itself merely.
Must Suit Stature.
Another thing to remember is that
hat may look wonderfully well when
the wearer is sitting down, and yet
not suit the person when standing. l
well remember one young debutante,
short and slender, who was choosing
large picture hat. 1t certainly was
handsome on her while she sat in the
chair before the mirrors in the milli-
ner's parlor. 1t was only when she
stood up and surveyed herself criti-
cally in the long pier glass that she
realized how overpowering the hat
was. how it dwarfed her stature and
detracted from her dainty appearance
Do not decide upon a hat, therefore,
unless you know it Is becoming from
every angle of the head and suits tho
stature also.
Price Not a Criterion.
This season hats can be had that
are remarkably good looking and yet
which are not at all high-priced.
There are also many creations of the
milliner's art that are dreams Of
beauty and which cost large sums. On
the other hand, there are frames and
materials that the woman who is deft
with her needle and artistic in her
ideas can transform into smart and
becoming hats. The hints given to-
day are those to be considered, wheth-
err woman pays much or little for
her hat; whether she buys it ready to
wear or makes 1T herself. The essen
tial things are to have the new hats
reflect beauty and charm of personal
ity, and be as delightfully."- fresh and
attractive as the season suggests.

Croutons, Spinach and Egg.

Cook half peck of carefully washed
spinach in the water that clings to it.
BY covering the kettle securely the
spinach cooks in the steam and all the
valuable mineral salts are preserved
Sprinkle over it a teaspoonful Of salt
When the spinach is tender drain, then
chop and press it through sieve. Saute
some rounds of bread in clarified butter
or olive oil Season the spinach with
salt, paprika,. cream or butter and stir
it over the fire until very hot, then
spread it on the rounds of bread. When
the spinach is set to cook cover two
eggs with boiling water and let them
stand in the water until the spinach is
cooked. Keep the water hot, but do not
allow 1t to boil. Decorate the spinach
with the whites of the eggs cut into
eighths lengthwise, and the yolks
pressed through sieve. A little lemon
juice may be added to the spinach with
the other seasonings.

Dlstorp of pour RamI
BY PHILIP FRANCIS NoWLAN.
BURTON,
RACIAL ORiGlN--EnaIish.
SOURCE-AI locality.

Family names which have been de-
rived from places are not hard tc
trace, once you have a clue to the
country from which they came, and
these clues are often contained in the
name themselves, though 1t is not al
ways safe to rely upon them.
Whenever you see a name ending
in ton" however, it's a fairly safe
assumption that it's English. that the
ton" means town" and that the
place.
Burton is still the name of place
In fact, there are number OF com
quantities in England with historic;
reaching back to Anglo Saxon days
which are known by this name.
The use of place names as surnames
came about in the first place to desig-
nate the individual by the locality he
had come from. They were never ap-
piled to persons who still dwelt there,
for the reason that such use of the
name would have constituted no diff
ferentiation among people all OF
whom lived there. The only excep-
ton to this is in the case of families
which exercised overlordship over the
place mentioned.
Two explanations are offered oi
hoy the place name originated. One
ascrfbes the first syllable to the fac
that the locality was thickly growr
with burrs, the other to a now obso.
iete word denoting a hill. The chance.
are that the latter is the true expla
nation In the majority of cases.

hoped to see Thunderer drum again
But to their great disappointment he
spread his wings and whirred away.
Anyway, we'll look at the log,
Thunderer's drumming log" said
Jumper, and led the way.
+ It was an old log. 1t was very
old log. 1t was such an old log that
1t was covered with moss. 1t must
have been. lying there for years and
years.
Look at the ends and see If it is
hollow" Jumper commanded.
Peter looked. He couldn't well re-
fuse, He looked, and he found that
that. log wasn't hollow. Anyway,
there were no openings at the ends.
Jumper made him look that log over
from one end to the other. There
wasn't even tiny opening in it. Such
a queer look as was on Peters face!
Jumpers eyes twinkled.
Jump on that log, Peter" said he,
Peter did SO.
Now thump 1t as hard as you cam
Jumper commanded.
What for?" asked Peter.
ITO see IL you can mako q noise on
it," replied Jumper. "If Thunderer
the Grouse can make all that noise
by hitting 1t with his wings. you
ought to be able to make a loud
noise by humping 1t with your feet
Peter thumped. He thumped with
all his might. He did make a noise
but it wasn't loud noise. You see
the old log was covered with moss
And that noise wasn't anything at all
like the noise made by ThundereI
the Grouse.
You see," said Jumper. "the log
isn't hollow, and the drumming isn't
made by beating the log. Are you
satisfied"

HOW 1T STARTED
BY JEAN MENTION.
The Drawing Room.

In this day of servant troubles and
the three-room suite with kitchenette
we do not hear so much of the draw
ing room as we used to. However,
where-there Is the luxury of a house
we do still find, occasionally. a relic
of the formal parlor style of room
called the drawing room. In England,
incidently, in quite small Villas" as
they call suburban houses, the term
is still used, even though the room
designated is what we would call a
living room.
On its face the word drawing
room" gives not the slightest hint OF
its origin-yet how obvious once it is
revealed! For 1t Is merely a contrac-
ton for the original withdrawing
room," to which the ladies withdrew
after dinner while the gentlemen sat
over their wine!

tened to the long, rolling booms that
sounded like distant thunder. rs the
log you have seen him drumming on
over where the sound is coming from,
Peter?"
Peter had to admit that it was. At
least, that sound seemed to be coming
from very near the place where he
had watched Thunderer on a certain
mossy old log more than once.
There is only one log over there
that Thunderer ever drums on, and
that must be the one you have seen
him on" declared Jumper the Hare.
"And. Peter, dear. 1t isn't hollow"
II know better" snapped Peter. "Of
course, It is hollow. You may say he
in order to make that noise. Then
how does he make it?"
That can't explain exactly" re-
piled Jumper.
"Of course, you can't! cried Peter,
triumphantly. Il tell you what
Jumper, let's go right over there now,
and IL Thunderer is still there Wei

how he made that noise. But he
agreed, and they headed for the place

i: High School Notes .
. = . = = = = . . . . . = = = 4

Probably the best enjoyed program
presented this year was that given by
Mrs. Catlett's group, whose chairman
introduced the Tennessee Serenaders.
They played several popular pieces,
intermngled with poppy choruses sung
by the orchestra To prove their pop
ularity they were forced to come back
for several encores after their sche-
duled time, After this, pep meeting
was held, lasting until o'clock, and
this caused one 1-hour class, school
dismissing at 3 o'clock.
The Monday assembly was short
pep meeting for the debate to be
held at Cedaredge in the evening.
Just as much pep was displayed here
as for any of the games, and we do,
indeed, attribute success to it.
Saturday evening the Y. w. c. A.
are entertaining their guests at a
Valentine party in the Community
Rooms. They are planning games to
keep things going every minute, and
from what We can gather from the
refreshment committee they are plan
ming on "a lot that's good"
Several members of the Nature
Study club have made bird houses and
feeders which have been placed at
convenient places for the birds. The
club is planning on a tree planting
day some time soon. and expect to
place them somewhere where they
will beautify some buildings or lots
Arbor day is in April so the club has
some time TO select a tree and site.
Friday. January 23 at the Delta
high school auditorium, and Monday,
February 9. at Cedaredge, the Delta
debating trio won over Cedaredge by
the unanimous decision of the judges.
The members OF the Delta team are:
Martha Springer. Sophomore; Char
lene Smith, Sophomore; and Beulah
Kettle, Senior
The judges at Delta were from the
Nontrose schools: Mr. Nelcher. sup
erintendent: Mr.. Brown, principal,
and Mr.. Morgan. Rev. Stalllngs OF
Delta was chairman.
The question for debate is: Re
solved. that the United States should
enter the World Court with the Hard
ing Reservations" The Delta trio up
held the negative here and the af-
firmative IA Cedaredge.
According to reports, from those
who attended the debate at Cedar
edge the argument was more heated
and thsre was noticeable improve
ment in the CedaredEe high school
trio which outclassed Delta in rebut-
Ia! but was in turn outclassed by Del
ia in delivery and constructive argu-
ment Charlene Smith was commend
ed upon her rebuttal.
