FANCY neckwear Is distinctly
= s.inn arain FOR Woman this

FANCY neckwear is distinctly
"in" again for women this
autumn.
OF course the Deauville kerr
chiefs started the fashioni No
body could resist the allure of
those soft, tantalizingly c~olorful
scarves that came in mouchoir
shape to adern the collarless
sports frocks.
But the fashion has been given
impetus by the universal trend of
women's modes toward more and
more feminine things. AS lines
grow more graceful and shapely,
the collarless neckline seems a bit
incongruous.
And so a multitude of newly de-
signed neck accessories r flood
ing the market which in their
diversity of materials and designs
guarantee some sort for every
conceivable taste.
Lace Neckwear
There are silk kerchief scarves
and lowered chiffon ones, long
scarves with printed ends designed
to show ones favorite resort spot
abroad, and scarves with geo.
metric designs portraying futuris-
tic color schemes. The very new
est of all neckwear however. is
the lace neckpiece.
Lace neckwear comes in the
old-fsshioned and ever enhancing
Ily lovely fashion called the v%estee,
with matching cuffs. But of
course it has its innovation! For
the new vestees take the latest
.neck1ine designs and dip to deep
or US and are finished with
lace edging so they are more
properly worn on the outside than
inside a blouse.
The type of neckwear worn this
fall should be chosen to CORE
spond with ones personality. The
c~lear-cut featured fiapper with her
dash and youth can easily wear
the most stunning of scarves. in
vivid colors, in any kind of de-
sign and knot them in front, back
or on the shoulder.

shape for cogs. Series of these
wheels would be erected where
needed in the mill for the trans
mission of power. They meshed
exactly and there are cases on
record where wooden cogwheels
lasted for as long as so a in
practically constant operation.
Tallow as Lubricant
Various forms of lubricant were
used, but sleeps tallow seems to
have been the most favored lubri-
cant for wooden machinery. The
continued use OF this lubricant in
cogs and in bearings resulted after
years of use in the wooden parts
becoming almost impervious to
wear and time.
The wooden machinery in some
of these antiquated mills is today
in good condition, still shining
and solid, just as it was when
some long-dead millwright shut
the power half a century ago.
Men living today. who. as
young men and boys. worked
around mills powered by wooden
machinery say that the wooden
cogs, when in operation, had a
tune all their own-a soft, sooth-
ing sort of a rhythm that made
working about the dusty hoppers
and. beneath the creaking shafts

Millers usually gained their pay
rom tithes. That is, a patron of

present great milling industries in

Ice Cream Habit
Grows In America

Americans are a nation of ice
cream eaters. They acquire the
habit early in youth, when most
habits, good and bad, are acquired.
Ice cream was once considered a
dish for summer alone; now it is
an all-year refreshment. 1t is
eaten, moreover, at all hours, even
at breakfast, as an early morning
visit to any soda fountain will
prove. Indeed, ice cream seems
to have taken the place at break
fast of the pie, for which America
was once reproached by foreign
critics.
Much ingenuity has been used
to make Americans eat ice cream.
One may have ice cream straight,
or as a sundae, Or in soda, or as
a sandwich. And one may have
ice cream in a cone or between
layers of chocolate-when it be-
comes Eskimo pie"
Ice cream provides the historian
with ample opportunity for re-
search, for of the origin OF TINS
delicacy little is surely known. Ac-
cording to the encyclopedias, ice
cream was introduced into France
from Italy in 1850. Germany and
England also were enjoying it at
about the same time, but whence
if originally came is a matter OF
conjecture. In 1856, it is SAID, the
first advertisement for ice cream
appeared in the United States. And
Mrs. Alexander Hamilton is report
ed to have been our first hostess
to serve her guests this frozen
dessert.
In 1851, Jacob Russell of Baltl-
more started, it is said, the mrs
American wholesale ice cream
trade. Since then, the industry
has grown to the point where 1t is
considered one of the greatest OF
the dairy industry. Proof OF It's
chart giving status is further TO be
found in the fact that in 1926, Eng
land acknowledged ice cream as
a staple food apart from the class
of luxuries, following in the steps
of America.
Since the advent of prohibition,
ice cream has become o popu-
than ever before. Chocolate va
nilla and strawberry are the f1avors
most in demand. The business OF
dispensing ice cream and ice cream
sodas and the allied soft drinks
is slangily known as SODA jerk
Soda dispensing, like many
other vocations, has a termlnoiogy
peculiar to itself. For instance, d

Fearing that an attempt may be
made to kidnap Matthew HINES,
notorious Oklahoma bandit, who
left here today under heavy guard
enroute to Okmulgee, Okla, the
outlaw will be transferred to an

Plans of the Oklahoma Officers

AVIAN cscorting HINES back to the
Oklahoma state prison after his
capture last week at Grand Canyon
where he is asserted to have been
plotting the holdup Of 4 govern
ment payroll.
The plan to transfer Kimes TO an

sheriff 8 office where hourly re
ports by telegram are being rcceiv-
ed from Oklahoma Officers as they
progress through the state Of New
