brlcs are of so smooth and fine q
texture that they resemble linen
and will serve the purposes of the
average housewife to much better
advantage. While there are many
reliable brands of medium priced
sheetings to be obtained on the
market, a little care in buying, in
the way of testing for sizing, is al
ways advisable. Cheap sheeting is
often heavily sized, and when this
is washed out it leaves very OPP
ten-meshed material.
Covers for the dresser, the dress
ing table and stand, should harmon
lie in shape and color with the
shape and color of the surfaces
which they are to cover. If the
wood of the furniture is dark, care
must be taken to avoid too great
a value contrast. When a number
of white covers are used in a dark
room, spotty effect is obtained,
which is most unpleasant. Natural
colored linen is often very desir-
able, as it blends easily into the
color scheme of the room and laun-
ders well. Cretonne matching cur
tains or bed spread is also very
attractive, if there are not too
many surfaces to be covered. Too
much figured material produces
a room which is anything but rest

WHALES HUSBAND
SUPPLIES THRILLS

Chasing whale with a harpoon
and motion picture camera in a
small boat is considered one of the
most exciting of pastimes. Being
pursued by the whales husband in
the middle of the chase reaches
the ultimate in thrills. It is one of
those things that happen once in a
lifetime, because the second whale
usually gets in some deadly work.
Sidney Snow, explorer, and his
party had a rare stroke of luck.
They killed the second whale with
carefully aimed bomb and con-
tinued the chase. The scenes are
shown in the Fox picture, The
Great White North" which opens
soon at the Liberty Theatre.

 Gambling is an ancient vice, as ancient as history. as ancient IS man. Although the burden of so- cial disapproval falls heavily upon professional gambling. we all take pleasure in its milder, amateur forms.
 Has not every church fair some particularly desirable prize on which one is asked to take chances? And what is taking chances if not form of gambling' We bet that we may win a sewing machine or an automobile for 50 cents. To be sure, the odds are against us, but it is fun to take the chance.
 Children share with the rest of humanity this delight in taking chances. They gamble for tops and marbles. and, in acute adolescence. for the money of their allowances.
 What attitude shall We take to- wards this youthful vice? Slall ~e be shocked? Shall We lay down the law. feeling that no matter what is permissible in those of maturer years, youth must not meddle with subtle discrminations Must youth learn without compromise that black is black and white is white? Such a course will not serve the ends which we desire. For If chil- dren are forbidden their childish games of chance. or even those which look quite like the accepted partimes indulged in by their elders. they will only resort to them on the sly.
 It is far more sensible 10 let them have their fill for this diversion. Let them lose their tops and marbles, the money of their allowances, their hard earned pennies even, if they choose. This Is the best possible way to learn that when you take chances you may lose. and when you lose there is no use squealing about it.
