Washington Fashions
BY WILMA LAvMLE

There has been talk for two
or three winters Of the fashion
of suits dying out. It has been
only talk, however, because
suits have been getting a little
bit more popular each season.
Furthermore this year they are
so inexpensive that almost
everybody can affo1 ! one.
Furs For Trimming
Suits may be composed of q
coat and skirt or of a jacket
and Gress. Sometimes contrast
of fabric and contrast of color
are used but probably the most
practical of all is the simple
suit Of jacket and skirt in win
ter weight. Tweeds and pebbly
weaves are the most popular
fabrics and either flat furs or
long-haired furs are used for
trimming. BlouSes and sweat
ers are both more attractive
this year than they have been
for some time. and they nay
both be used to vary the ap.
pearance Of the suit.
CoIors For Winter
We have sketched a suit to-
day that is typical of the best
typL we ha-'t found Wash
ington. It is a simple acket
suit that comes ir either tweed
or a nubby woolen fabric and
in several colors. brown, green
or dark Spanish tile. The
collar is of dark fluffy raccoon
and the jacket crosses in Won
nets diagonal line. It is warm
enough for winter weather and
will be smart fc- a Y daytime
wear. You will be surprised
when you learn how very rea-
Sonable the pric" is.
For more Information con-
cerning this suit write Miss
Wilma Laville, inclosing a self
addressed, stamped envelope, or

IS YOUR HOME A
TESTING GROUND for
UWzRZED PRODUCTS ?

VXTHAT CAN anyone gain by buying
w unknown products?
And why should anyone buy them, when
you can always be safe by asking for
brands of recognized quality?
The lure of unknown products is often a
'bargain price," The clerk may say they
are Gust as good" as the popular adver-
tised brands.
But isn't the approval of millions of
people worth something?
Advertising cannot create character for
a product. But it does place established
character on trial.
The advertised product has a reputation
at stake.
1t must make good to hold your conf
dence. One false claim would be fatal.
The substitute product is an unknown
brand, with little to lose.
In appearance, it may initiate the product
you know.
Only by sad experience can you prove
that claim untrue!
Think of this the next time anyone tries
to sell you something "just as good"
Such "just. as good" products are urged
upon you for only one reason. There is
more profit in selling them.
Indiscriminate merchants who permit and
encourage substitution are looking at to-
days sales slips. Not at t6morrow's
loyal customers.
These facts are published by this news
paper to protect it's readers.
Whenever you shop, ask for standard
advertised products. Insist on getting
them. Be warned by the words ''just as
good" that there Is often something
When you are guided by names You
knouU you can be sure of constant quail.

CROWD TTACKS
POLICEMAN

While he was arresting a col
ored man on an investigation
charge at Fourth and N Streets
last night, Policeman Anthony
Ritchitt, of the Traffic Bureau,
was nearly overcome by an angry
crowd which attempted to wrest
his revolver from him.
Policeman Ritchitt said that
he had seen a truck without
lights near New Jersey Avenue
and N Street Northwest and fol
lowed the machine to Fourth and
N Streets Northwest. There the
driver leaped out and the police
man followed him into an alley.
The man drew a knife, the po-
liceman says, but surrendered
when Ritchitt drew his gun.
When they came out of the alley
the crowd of colored men at
tempted to free the prisoner.
The crowd was dispersed by
the sound of an approaching po-
lice siren and the prisoner was
taken to the Second Precinct
station, where he gave his name
as Richard Savoy, SO, and said he
lives near Georgia Avenue and
Morton Streets Northwest.

CLEAN The CHICKEN
HOUSE BEFORE WINTER

Bozeman, Mont. "Chickens
spend more time inside the hen
house during the winter so life
can be made a great deal easier
for them by giving their quarters
a good cleaning this fall" recO-
mends Miss H. E. Cushman, ex-
tension poultry specialist at Mon
tana State college. Cleanliness is
always necessary, she cautions,
but especially so during the win
ter.
Along with the fall houseclean-
ing recommendation Miss Cush-
man has the following suggestions
to offer.
First, move all perches, nests,
feeding hoppers, water containers
and other movable equipment and
clean out all the litter and sweep
the floor and walls to remove
dust and other dirt accumulations.
After this first job has been
completed, the interior OF the
chicken house should be washed
with hot, soapy water. A broom is
a good tool for doing this task
well and quickly. Spray the walls
and floor with some good disin-
fectant. The dirt and vermin be-
tween boards and in cracks which
was not removed or destroyed by
the sweeping will succumb almost
entirely to the disinfectant spray.
The house should be thoroughly
dried out after the spraying be-
fore the chickens are allowed to
enter. A torch is on the market
which does this job well. 1t pro
duces a hot flame which pene-
trates cracks in the walls and will
not char the wood. The torch will
effectively destroy any vermin
missed by the disinfectant and
sweeping. The torch should not
be used until all litter, dust and
cobwebs have been removed.
during the hOuseclean1ng II IS
a good plan to check up on venti-
lation. The ideal system is cross
ventilation in the straw loft and
windows in the front of the house.
This system provides ventilation
without draft. Damp litter is a
certain indication Of poor ventila-
ton.
1t also is we'll to check up on
housing capacity of the poul-
try house. Average hens require
four square feet of floor space.
The feeding trough should be
Iarge enough so each hen will
nave six linear inches. Have one
lest for every six hens and ade-
luate drinking fountains. Litter
should be changed otter during
he winter.
