THIRD TERsrER

Mrs. Rogers was elected TO congress June 80. 1925.
to fill the vacancy caused BY the death OF her hus-
band. the late John Jacobs Rogers. She received
1854 votes against p.251 for her democratic oppo-
nent. She was reelected 10 the SEVENTEEN congress.
receiving 46.464 votes against 1895 for her opponent.
She was chosen for a third term last November.
That she Is popular in her whole district Is shown
by the fact that in the rural sections she rolled up
impressive majorites. She carried the two demo-
cratic cities Of Lowell and woburn by more than two
TO one.

Washington Letter
By HERBERT c. PLUMNfER

WASHINGTON. May 2-This is the story OF how
a woman took to the air to put her home city back
on its feet.
The woman is Rep. Edith Nourse Rogers. member
of congress from from the fifth district Of Massachu-
sets. The city is Lowell, Mass.
AIRS. Rogers is an aviation enthusiast of the first
water. She has had sufficient hours in the air to
make plane flights anything but a novel experience.
She uses a plane much like other people use a train
or an automobile. 1t is her favorite way of travel
ing. While she Is not a pilot, she believes che could
qualify as one.
PRACTICAL WOMAN
But it Is the practical side Of aviation which ap-
peals most to Mrs. Rogers. And this brings US 70
the story about how her interest In aviation neipeo
put Lowell back on the map.
Lowell was in a bad way as fer as business was
concerned. For years It had been one Of the largest
rapufac.urinr centers in New England. But the tex
ale mills were closing down to reopen again In va
rious sections Of the south.
People were saying that Lowell was dead and that
business was on the rocks. Mrs. Rogers set about
proving that the city could be given new life.
The ~postoffice department was at that tirne
launching the air mail. Mrs. Rogers had become m
terested in the venture and had given much OF her
time in an effort to make II a success. 50 u occurred
70 her that aviation could be made the salvation OF
Lowell.
The first step was to get one or two ~seaplanes from
a naval base nearby to visit the city. In those days
planes were a novelty. and when they arrived IN
Lowell the entire city turned out to greet them.
Mrs. Rogers increased the interest of the citizens
further by climbing aboard ore of the planes and
flying over the city.
AS n result of this. a move was launched by the
civic organizations of Lowell to build an airport.
The airport was constructed In due time and Low

Then Mrs. Rogers heard that an ~sirplane COM
pany was looking for a site in that section on which
to build a factory. She and the people Of Lowell
started out to have the company locate its factory
there. They we're successful. and only a few days
ago Mrs. Rogers christened the first plane rnanufac-
tured at the plant. 1t was named the CITY Of

STOCK ILLS ARE BEING
CURbED IN MONTANA
Several Agencies Are Striving to
Keep Animals Free From
Disease.

Freedom from disease in livestock,
for which Montana has been marked,
is to be maintained in the face of
changing conditions in the sheep in
dustry, through an agreement under
which several state agencies, public
and semi-public, will cooperate.
Shed Landing, while it offsets to
a large extent the vagaries of noun
tain weather, has it disadvantages,
sheepmen have found. Particularly
these are the necessity for confine-
ment in close quarters, use of the
same range and backgrounds for long
periods.
In some parts of the state, pos
sibly from this source, disease
known as white scours" has devel-
oped among lambs. The loss runs high
and sheepmen who have been battling
as individuals for the last two or
three years decided to call in the aid
of scientists.
An agreement authorized by the
Montana Woolgrowers association at
its last meeting has been signed by
the state livestock sanitary board and
the Montana experiment station. I'm
der that agreement, committee has
been formed which will direct an ex-
tensive research project. Members of
this committee are DR.. Alfred Akin
son, president of Montana State col
lege; Percy Williamson, representing
the sanitary board; Dr. Howard
WEIGH, dean of the veterinary de-
partment at the college; DR.. Hadleigh
Marsh, state pathologist and bacter-
iologist; Dr. H. C. Gardiner, repre-
senting the Montana Woolgrowers as
CESSATION, and DR.. W. ]. Butler, rep
resenting the Montana stockgrowers.
Funds to the extent of $4,000 a
year will be contributed by the state
board, $4,000 year by the expert
ment station. The station also will
provide land for pasture, buildings
for office and laboratory space and
will maintain the plant.

the surplice front closing proves a
friend both to the thin and stout, as it
makes the front line less severe and
gives interest to an otherwise simple
dress.
Every woman past forty should see
that she has sufficient skirt fullness
so that she can sit down gracefully.
The dress shown has that essential.
Irregular hemlines allow happy
compromise in skirt lengths and should
be taken advantage of by older wom-
en-. They are especially becoming for
women with good taste in shoes and
who buy with discrimination stockings
of the right color and who take pride
in seeing that there are no wrinkles.
When you are not so light on your
feet as you once were, or where COM
fort is the first requirement in shoes,
watch your stockings so that they
harmonic rather than contrast with
your Dress Stockings should be a
shade lighter but never so light in
comparison with the dress as to be
conspicuous.
When face lines begin to appear,
satins and other shiny or hard sur
faced fabrics are to be avoided They
draw a contrast that makes the face
and hands appear more wrinkled than
they are. The same is true of metal
lie cloths, MORE, taffeta and such
bright surfaces.
Crepes and chiffons have become
staples. They are manufactured in
such variety and such exquisite,
subtle colorings that one can find ex-
actly the right tint, tone and texture
for any purpose. Flat crepe is the
volume dress fabric for all ages and
is especially appropriate for older
years. 1t has the advantage, too, of
being comparatively inexpensive.
One thing that every woman past
thirty, and who is even slightly above
or below average in size or weight,
should avoid is sleazy, cheap-appear-
ing fabrics, either in texture or color.
= 1t is far better to have one good dress
than two cheap ones. Cheapness in
fabric seems to show more clearly
than in other merchandise, and it
draws sharp contrast where dignity
in dress is essential.

STATE BANKS HAVE
EXCELLENT RESERVE
DRAIN OF MIDSUMMER FAILS
TO REDUCE READY MONEY
IN STATE VAULTS.

Although borrowing by bank Gus
toners is at the seasons peak, state
banks in Montana hold virtually the
same status they held at the last
quarterly bank call in March, A. ).
Lochrie, state superintendent OF banks,
announces. This condition, he points
out, is found despite the fact that
wool sales have been few and that a
large amount of last years wheat
still remains in the hands OF bank
customers.
Loans to customers show an in
crease on the June 80 call of Sl,ooo'-
355 over the March statement and, at
the same time, banks have increased
their borrowings but SS2o,o0O, lndi-
eating, Mr.. Lochrie said, further evil
dence of banking strength.
The June 80 abstract reveals total
assets of ,747,194.2s, as compared
with S8S,355, 1874 for March.
While the statement shows slight
decrease in total deposits, savings and
interest deposits increased consid-
erably, indicating thrift of Montana
people generally, the superintendent
said.
The report says the average reserve
has dropped from 20 per cent to
slightly more than IS.
"The variance of this statement is
only slight, as compared with the
March report" Mr.. Lochrie said.
During the last quarter the banks
have shown an increase in earnings OF
a little more than 100000 over the
previous period, which indicates prog
ress and better banking conditions"

says Jane Warren Wells in Farm and

When age is a consideration we can
never buy with abandon.
First of all, we must choose the new
fashions that we know will be both
becoming and flattering. Always we
must have in mind what fabrics, color

neck, sleeve and hemlines will be most
becoming to our posture, size, type,
age and personality.
For example, the sleeveless, back
less frocks, so popular with young peo-
pie today, will be definitely avoided
by the woman who has arms too large
or too thin to be attractive. Such
types are sure to find real comfort
in the little jackets made of the same
