You were certainly naughty" said

and the opposite shore looked so near

and the river and the shore were
talking about boats and fishes and one

they're parties suddenly begun"
"Yes," said Old Man Weather, "and
people were out in their fine summer
clothes and their good hats and their
best shoes and you surprised them
and didn't stop as though Prince
Shower were managing things.

you, King of the Clouds"
"Yes," agreed the King Of the

How 1t Started
"THE CHAFF FROM THE
WHEAT"
By JEAN NEWTON

oTO SEPARATE the chaff from
i the wheat" is phrase that Is
frequently heard in modern speech to
express distinguishing between the
false and the true, the worthy and
the worthless.
Chaff Is the straw and other waste
in wheat and grains which by thresh-
ing and winnowing, are sifted down
and removed to purify and prepare
the harvest for the process by which
it becomes the .'staff of life," the bread
on our table. The first step is sep
arating the chaff from the wheat" the
refuse from the food kernel.
From the parlance of the farm the
term found its way into general speech
where the mediator In an argument, In
an effort to sift the matter to useless
talk and get down to fundamental
facts, will sometimes say: 1--WE must
separate the chaff from the wheat"

In recent black broadcloth coat
dress there was some suggestion of
the directoire, 1t having high-but-

Two other versions of the one-piece
cloth frock feature in the newer col
lections, namely the surplice front
opening and the simply styled princess
effect. Speaking of the former, these

make use of tabs, straps, buckles and
buttons. The princess cloth types are

PLAIDS AND TWEEDS;
FINE CLOTH MAKES FINE GOWNS

IN THE comfy" luxurious wooden
coats now so popular the ideal of
smart utility is attained. The new
topcpats glow with vivacious coloring
as they tell their fascinating story of
plaids and checks, cubes and diamond
shapes, zigzag stripes and modern
istic patternings. Novelty is the spe-
cialty of present-day cloakings and
they enact the part In spectacular
fashion, completing the color scheme
by collaborating with blended fur.
An exponent of the coat ideal for
school or, business wear is here pic
tured. 1t presents color in indescrib-
able interminglings of brown, green,
red and beige. The relating of pocket
and belt in a single unit stresses the
intricate cloth treatment which char

with seal, panels Of which uniquely
trim the sleeve.
Speaking of these seal panels, which
in this instance extended from eiDoW
to wrist at the back of the sleeve,
calls to mind the eccentric placement
of fur which features the "last word
nodes from Paris. For example, fur
pockets curiously shaped, are set at
an out-of-the-ordinary angle.
AS to treatment of fur on sleeves,
there is no end TO the novelty ex-
pressed. The fur below-the-elbow pun
and the fur half-sleeve are some
thing distinctly different.

The use of drain tile began many
centuries ago In France, but its manu-

were first used In England in 1910 and
introduced into the United States in
1885 by John Johnston. who used
handmade tile on his farm near Ge-

FIFTH REMOVAL OF
 REMAINS PLANNED
Spain Now Asks Bones Of HernandO COTtes Be Returned

Mexico City, June IT R)-The long sleep of Fernando Cortes, cap- tain ge, eral f !pain and conqueror Of Mexico in t520 by his defeat of the Aztec war chief Montezuma, may be disturbed again. The Span ish government has requested Mex ico to return the bones of Cortes to his native land for final burial. They are presumed to lie in a se- cret crypt near Mexico City.
 Already the remains have been moved six times since Cortes died at Castilleio de l. Cuesta. near Seville, Spain. in 1547, where he had gone to confer with his king.
 Meanwhile. a lineal descendant of Cortes, Prince Valerie Pignatelh of Italy. says the bones must be taken to Italy and not to Spain, if they are moved again. Prince Pignatelli came to Mexico last winter to take over the historic palace of his an- cestor near Cuernavaca. He claims to know where Cortes was last bur- jed, but it is not certain that he will reveal the location.
 There is reluctance on the part of the Mexican government to vio- late the express instructions in the will of Cortes, who originally was inferred near Seville. that his body be taken 10 Mexico for Burial. The body was exhumed in 1882 and brought across the ocean for final resting place near Mexico City.

 Discuss Battaglia's BIn
 A discussion was held over the payment of the bill of Joseph Bat taglia for sewer installation through the right Of way over the Louie S Jones development in Stanley Qaur- ter. Alderman Falk, chairman Of the finance committee, moved that the bill be paid with the exception of s495 which he wanted to investi- gate. City Engineer Williams ex- plained that due to the change in grade, Mir. Battaglia was required to move and replace 450 cubic yards Of dirt and the board of public works instructed the engineer to give the contractor an extra work order, as the change in grade was made after the contract was awarded.
 Alderman Maerz inquired why the contractor charged one dollar per cubic yard 10 do this work and only 5Q cents per cubic yard to dig ma- terial out fl feet below the surface. The engineer explained that the ma- terial was handled twice, and the bid of Mir Battagia differed in many respects from the bids of other con- tractors, yet he was s6,000 lower than his nearest competitor on the entire contract.
 Alderman Faik favored paying the hill after the engineers explanation but Alderman Maerz was opposed. Alderman Falk said it A was agreed between them at the finance com mittee meeting. at which they were the only members present, that he would look into the bill and if il was found to be reasonable. the committee would favor payment. Alderman Maerz disagreed and after further discussion, the disputed part Of the bill was referred back 10 the finance committee.

After the original interment the body was twice transferred to other sites. In 1794 it was moved to the Hospital De Jesus in Mexico City. In 1923 a mob. unframed by MeXico's fight for independence from Spain, threatened to show its detestation of the spaniards by breaking into the tomb and scattering the remains.
 Friends of the Cortes family se- cretly entered the chapel at night and removed and reburied the re- mains at another place, supposedly elsewhere within the Hospital De Jesus. The location of this tomb is generally unknown today There are many persons who believe that no one is aware of its location, not withstanding the fact that a few persons claim actually to know it. Among these is Prince Pignatellt,
