so that all had a chance to dance.
Minna danced lovely dance with
the Violin who hummed softly and
sweetly as he danced.
The First Pieces were dancing
around with some Of the Scales.
Minna particularly liked the look
of one g Major Scale who was like
his relatives and yet appeared finer
and Of greater dignity and simplicity
than the others. He was dancing with
charming little First Piece. The
First Piece, Minna noticed. was writ
ten IN the G Major key.
Perhaps that was why they had so
much in common, or were in such
harmony as Miss Drumble, her teach
er. would say.
There were other First Pieces, to
be sure, but Minna watched this cou-
pie more than any of the others. Even
as she danced with her different part
ners, she watched them. They were
dancing together all the time.
The tunes to which they danced
were many. How gay it all was !
Minna was glad that she had on her
good blue dress. Her everyday dress
had become so shabby that she had
dressed up in her better one for her
music lesson.
When she had started on her walk
she had thought of going home to

and that she wouldn't really hurt it.
How thankful she was now that she

ly music, so bright and so jolly, such
delightful, graceful, interesting dane
ing.

HINTS FOR HOUSEKEEPERS

Let the children have plenty of out
door play in the sunshine now to help
them resist colds this winter.
Weather stripping around the win
dOws helps to save fuel and to keep
the house evenly heated in winter.
To foster a love of reading in chill
dren, see that they are provided with
comfortable chairs and good light
placed conveniently near.
An uncovered kettle and short cook

keeping the color in green vegetables
during cooking.
Soap and hot water and occasional.

Furred Cloth Suit Smart for Winter

The thing that intrigues about the
furred cloth jacket suits, which are
the smart note for nearly winter, is
that they dare to be so strikingly
original.
In the yesteryears, suit was mere
ly a suit lacking for the most part
that variety" which "is the spice of
life" How different the modern suit
1t has become creature of imagina-
tion in the evolving of which genius
is apparently taking its fling.
1t is just such fascinating types as
the one in this picture which is caus-
ing the fashionable world to pay hon.
age to the fur-trimmed suit as
"thing of beauty" as well as costume
of exceeding chic.
This striking model is made of
brown verona cloth, its collar of
brown caracul interpreting an entirely
new and decidedly fiattering silhouette.
The bordering on the coat repeats the
graceful circular movement Of the col
lar. There is the buckle fastening. 1t
is the latest-much more satisfactory
and smarter than the button-and-loop
idea. The close-fitting brown felt tur-
ban with its oEe-side flare, crowns this
costume with definite style touch.
The vogue for thin fiat furs is prov
ing an inspiration to designers to de-
sign, for the reasons that supple
peltry, such as beaver, seal, lapin,
broadtail, Persian lamb, astrakhan,
galyak, caracul and such, yield to ma
nipulation as gracefully as any fabric.
The smartest of the smart on the
daytime costume list is the suit of
tweed for sports, and broadcloth or
velvet for dressier wear, which is col
Jared and cuffed with some one of the
furs just mentioned. Competing with
the fiat fur trims, to no small degree
are the snowy long-haired varieties,
chief among which are badger fox,
wolf and lynx.
Not all suits are black, not all suits
are brown, although many of them are,
but there is also a most delectable COL
or program mapped out for the furred
cloth suit, which includes deep wines,

Evening Fairy Tale for the Children

In the music shop the lullaby had
put them all to sleep, but they were
only going to take nap so as to rest
for the ball that was going to take
place.
The instruments aad pieces of mu-
sic had all come to life ana were hav-
ing fine entertainment for their
guest, Minna.
But the lullaby had certainly made
them sleepy.
AT the very last note everyone of
them had fallen off to sleep, though
some had gone to sleep little before
the end.
Minna looked around and saw the
music sheets resting on tables and
counters.
The Big Bass viol was leaning up
against wall, taking his nap. The
Violin was resting upon chair. Min
ma put her head down on the Piano
and closed her eyes. Either she went
to sleep very quickly or else the 9TH
ers didn't sleep any length of time at
all, for in what seemed but a few
minutes the Metronome shouted:
''Time-to-wake-up."
Once again they all busted them
selves off, and one or two sheets of
music smoOthed out their corners
which had got bent over a little.
Then everyone began to dance. The
Sharps and the Flats came out from
the pages Of the music and jumped
here, there, and everywhere over the
Piano. The Grace Notes did the love-
liest of dancing steps.

MCDONNELL FEELS
Railroad Commissioner Sees an
Offset to Drouth in Higher
Prices for Products

Although yields of North Dakota's
major crops may be seriously reduced
in comparison with last years bum
per crop, farmers may get as much
gross revenue and more profit than
last year, c. w. Mcdonnell, vice
chairman of the Northwest Regional
advisory board for North Dakota,
told that body meeting here, today.
Reviewing the agricultural situa-
ton in this state as disclosed by fed
eral reports, the reports Of county
agents to the state railroad board ard
his own observations, Mcdonnell
pointed out that substantial decreases
have occurred in the acreage planted
to wheat. oats, rye and potatoes and
increases r reported in acreage
sown to corn. barley and flax.
Corn, alfalfa and sweet clover are
in better condition than other crops
and give promise of more bountiful
yields, Mcdonnell said. The crop of
native hay is short since 1t begins to
cure about July l, where as sweet
clover and alfalfa continues to grow
until frost.
Some sections Of North Dakota
have good crops while in other Sec
tions the crop will be almost a COM
plete failure, Mcdonnell said. This
is due to the fact that rains which
have fallen since June Is have been

Mcdonnell said.
Indications are that the crop in
North Dakota will be harvested rap

creased use of combines. he said. The
number used last year was l,l72 and
dealers predicted that this figure
would reach $500 to 5000 In 1929. It
is necessary to reduce this estimate
somewhat, Mcdonnell said, since
sales have not been up to expecta-
lions.
Noticeable improvements In the
manner in which the crop was put In
this year was attributed by McDon-
nell to the tractor. BY using mechnn-
ical power the crop is planted in
shorter time. .unfavorable weather
