who can deny their practical
bility. There are times when
one hops out of bed when a light
wrap is sufficient. Or, perhaps,
in the performing Of those mys-
ferrous beauty rites which most
women love to perform just be-
fore they retire. then it is that
the new throw" as it is called is
q boon.
It is, in fact, a negligee
jacket, if one may be per-
mitted, and is made of the same
material as the gown. Thus, as
shown in the picture, a blue
georgette gown trimmed with
ecru Alencon lace, has the
matching throw. The gowns also
show the influence Of the uneven
hemline.
The chemise step-in is of the
same material, and shows the in
nuence of the side trim now so
popular. For but one side of
the chemise shows the lace and
tucked insert, the other being
perfectly plain.
Lingerie Is as diversified as
to style as are outer garments
these days, and 30 lovely that
it is hard to resist the tempta-
ton TO invest more than the
budget allows. But at least one
of these ensembles should be in

powder or evaporated milk.
This preparation Is made from fresh cows
milk. 1t contains all of the normal ingredients
Of milk, except the water. This preparation is
the result of passing the liquid milk over revolv-
ing cylinders, heated to a high temperature. The
heat is sufficient to dry up the water and TO leave
the solid elements. There is another process by
which the milk is sprayed into a hot cylinder.
But the result is practically the same.
Of course, ] believe in the use Of the prepared
fresh fluid milk. In my opinion, this possesses
intangible qualities which make it preferable.

TT AVING recently published in this column
a list of foods and their calorie value, it
has since occurred to me that | might
make up a simple list telling you just how to cut
one thousand calories a day from your menu
without unbalancing your diet.
If you want to reduce by the calorie route it
is done by cutting down on the amount of calories
taken each day. If you want to lose a few
pounds take off five hundred calories, if you
have quite a little TO lose cut off one thousand
calories for the first month or six weeks, then be
content with taking off five hundred. But be
careful that you know your state of health before
starting any reducing campaign.
One small lump of sugar contains twenty-five
calories. That means fifty calories for the aver

FINGER PRINTS

Before many months have passed,
system Of fingerprinting stations
will have been established in Con-
necticut which win fingerprint every
resident Of the state entering fed
eral jobs under civil service regula-
tions, it is stated at the civil service
commission headquarters here.
Already these civil service finger
print stations have been established
in $50 cities Of the country and the
following thirteen Connecticut cities:
Hartford, Bridgeport, New Haven,
Waterbury. Stamford, Derby, Green
wich. Meriden, Milford, Naugatuck.
New Britain, New London, Norwalk.
"No crooks need apply" is the at
titude voiced by the civil service
commission in regard to federal posi-
tons, and in order TO keep out crooks
the commission is establishing this
system Of fingerprinting stations
which will fingerprint all appointees
for comparison with the records OF
the central fingerprint register OF the
Department of Justice. Already TINS
system Of fingerprinting has demon
strated its value in spotting num-
Der of criminals endeavoring 70 enter
civil service positions in various parts
Of the country.
When the necessary financial re-
sources are available, such stations
win be located in every city Of Con-
uecticut. 1t is said at the commission
headquarters.

MARGARET BYERS PRE-
SENTED WITH CHAIR

Characteristic of the kin d and
neighborly Raymond folks, a social
was given Friday evening, December
21st, at the Collins school, the pro-
ceeds of which were used to purchase
a wheel chair which was presented
to Margaret Byers, 10 years old,
daughter of Mrs. Bertha Byers, who
lives IL miles northwest of Raymond.
Five years ago Margaret fell from
a wagon and injured her spine, since
which time she has been unable to
walk.
Roy Collins presented the gift to
the little girl in few words that will
long be remembered by those who
heard that kindly man speak.
A truly Christmas spirit pervaded
the gathering of Raymond friends and
twill he an event that will, live in
the minds of those present.
Mrs. Byers and Margaret were ov-
enjoyed at the kindness of their
neighbors and friends and the 1925
Christmas will never be forgotten by
them.
