not noticing a second truck, or
thinking that he could get across

such a way that his only injury
was a severe bruise on his fore

tary Talyor overlooked his main
chance by not giving his views
at that meeting when the ideas
OF anyone present were repeated
ly called for. He may or may not
nave been present at that meet

himself known. His talk to the
K1wanis club indicates that he
did not listen to the proceedings.
There was 20 reference whatever,
during the meeting, or any place
else, to plans, plots or intentions to
divert any mileage on the present

New Evening Wear FZatte1S MiAady
DECORATIONS ARE ORNATE. WITH SUBTLE DRAPES AND SHNNfERING MA
TERLAIS-EnP TRAN INTRODUCED
BY HARRIET

DISTINCTIVE, charming and
tremendously f~lattering are
the new modes for Milady-de-
signed for her wear after s p. m.
Subtle drapes, glittering mate
rails, ornate or elaborate decora-
ton and irregular hemlines are
some Of the outstanding features
of these evening modes.
Perhaps newest in the line of
draperies is the new hip-train
which seems to have originated as
a drape that gives fullness with
out destroying that svelte slender
ness of line that is dear to the
heart of woman.
But this train is really a dTap-
cry gone astray-and made far
more charming in the process. For
in folding itself into fullness with
out enlarging its wearer,s appear
ance, it grows Uneven in the hem
line and finally the cutest of cute
trains emerges as the satisfying
outcome.
Black Never Tires
Two such individual gowns are
shown today. The first is of the
most popular shade-black. Now,
black is the sort of color no one
can go wrong on. 1t is stunning.
It never tires one. 1t can be worn
many times without ones friends

fled that Maertins had made re-
marks to them to the effect that

that if tacks had fallen out of

TAYLOR TELLS OF
PLOT TO CHANGE
THE AID
ROAD E OF US
Describes Meeting at Wolf Point
Intended to Destroy Canada to
Mexico Highway and Substitute
Scobey-Wolf Point, Circle, Terry
Hiway

In his address to the Kiwanis
club yesterday noon j. L. Taylor
called attention to some vital facts
Of interest to Dawson and neigh
boring counties. He discussed the
designs of some neighboring coun.
ties respecting a change of high
ways in eastern Montana. He
and John Sorenson spent Monday
and Tuesday in Wolf Point in at
tendance upon a meeting of the
State Highway Commission in
that city.
According to Mr.. Taylor it is
the design of Roosevelt, McCone
and Prairie counties to induce the
state highway commission if pos
sible to alter the present Federal
aid road program so as to include
the highways from Scobey to Wolf
Point, from Wolf Point to Circle
and fran Circle to Terry. At pres
ent these roads are state high
ways only.
If they can be made over into
Federal aid roads, the government
will have to bear over three-quart-
ers of the expense of building the
proposed bridge over the Missouri
at Wolf Point. AS the north end
of the bridge is on the Indian res
ervation, the Federal Government
will pay half of it and if the
bridge connects a Federal aid
highway, the Federal Government
will have to pay Sc per cent of
the cost of the other half.
All the leading citizens and Of
flee holders of McCone county
and of Prairie county were in at
tendance at the meeting at Wolf
All summer the highway in

any season, but particularly acceptable
while eggs are plentiful Is made Of
bananas, vanilla cookies, and custard
To make 1t you will need the following
ingredients: One quart Of milk, FIVE
eggs, one-half cupful Of sugar, one tea
spoonful ofvanilla, one-eighth teaspoon
full of salt, one-half pound Of vanilla
cookies, two to four bananas, depend
ing on the size. Make this desert In the
morning TO give 1t time to develop ia
vor by the blending of the cookies,
custard and bananas. Prepare soft
custard using the yolks of the eggs,
sugar, salt and vanilla. Make 1t in
the double boiler and allow it to cool
Then place layer Of the cookies In
a pudding dish. They may be either
your own OR those bought in packages.
Put layer of sliced bananas over the
