Buzzard Attack plane

Various observations have been
made on the behavior of birds when
encountering airplanes, and not the
least interesting Of these is sent by
Mr.. G. Abbey, Norton Manor gardens,
Sutton Scotney, to Bird Notes and
News: During the late autumn of
1880 the common buzzard was seen
about here many times. One day a
bombing airplane came over and was
at once attacked by buzzard. The
bird few over, under, in front, and at
every angle; just kept clear; returned
to the attack, and finally made off, and
was out Of sight in half minute. The
eagle-like size made it appear at first
to be Moth airplane attacking the

Straight Talks to Women About Money
BY MARY ELIZABETH ALLEN.

In a letter S. o. S. writes that she
has never bought stocks before, having
always invested her savings in bonds,
but would now like to buy some good,
depression proof stocks, and asks how
to go about 1t.
The easy skid of the stock market is
full of dangerous pitfalls for the UNI
wary. and for any one like S. 0. s.,
whose letter indicates that she Is UNI
familiar with the rudiments of invest
ment and certainly not familiar with
the more complicated facts OF earnings,
stability, capitalization and so forth.
But If S. o. S has made her mind up
to buy stocks, here is how to go about
it:
First, be sure that the amount Of
money you set aside to invest in stocks
is not likely to be needed in any sud
den emergency. In any caGe, do not
buy stocks with more than so per cent
of your funds. II you should have to
raise cash in a hurry you are likely to
be called upon to take much lower
price for your stock.
Then make sure that you are really
Investing ard not just buying
stocks" in the hopes that they will 80
up in price Not all Stoc,:s are irvect-
ments. and many are rank speculation.
That is a profession in itself, and one
solely for these who can afford to take
the chances of losing.
Pick out financial house with which
you want to Go business, and consult an
officer there. Tell him your problem
and plans and be perfectly frank with
him about your financial condition.

THIS HANDSOME RUG, RED WORKS


The vogue of crochet is returning
with its excellent opportunities for
women to make attractive articles in
this favorite craft. The work is rapid
which is always an asset in this busy
era. Since stitches are innumerable, the
style of work varies decidedly from
sturdy, durable rugs to filmy, diaphanous
lace. The stitchery is, nevertheless
divided into two distinct types, one
compact, as in rug-craft, the second
open as in lace. Between these two
extremes Of compact and open textures
there is wide range of surfaces. There
has never been a time since crocheting
was devised that it has not been in use
in some one of these types, but 1t comes
recurrently into especial favor as a
pronounced vogue, when both types are
required.
In some instances the identical pat
tern for rug-craft and lace, such as
1ilet, can be used INTERCHANGEABLE. For
example, flet lace designs worked in
single crochet become compact, firm
and minus perforations. When a coarse
rug medium is employed, the weight
makes a heavy textile suitable for floor
covering The size of the pattern will
be enormously enlarged. 1t will become
bold as is desirable for rug-craft, instead
of dainty as in filet crochet.
Should a crochet rug-craft design be
wrought in filet. with its spaces and
posts supplying the network quality, the
pattern will be open and delicate. Pat
terms which work out to form square
stitches in any designs can be utilized
for filet crochet or for single crochet
stitch. From this, it will be seen that
cross-stitch patterns can be developed
In filet or single crochet. This is because
of the fact that the crafts are those
worked by counted stitches. Each space
counts as one stitch, whether the space
in the pattern is open or filled in.

we would like to rear them.
1T is diff1cult to make house into
a home when both parents are away
all day and come home tired out
physically and nervously. There is lit
tie time for the friends. It seems to
me that there is little that is ideal in
what the young folks have to look
forward to-
1t seems to me that this talk about
women who work not being able to
make home is ali an ancient supersti-
ton. 1t scares of many girls who
might otherwise try to build up a
pleasant home life while continuing to
work. Even more, it gives men a false
notion so that they're afraid to have
their wives work after they're married
Thousands of women are making
homes although they are working all
day long.
You say children must be reared by
cheap help or in a nursery school,
know some nursery schools which bring
up children better than many parent.
All day long the children are in the
hands of women who are trained in
this one special business of bringing
up children.
These women are never exasperated
by childish notions, they are always
patient, cool and detached, as people
who bring up children ought to be.
No tired mother who has to do her
own housework can possibly be that way
all the time.
AS for the girl VINO Is physically
exhausted from her day at the office
wouldn't she be far more nervous, ir-
ritable. and exhausted after a day of
cooking, cleaning dressing children,
feeding children and watching their
manners? Wouldn't she be less of a
companion to her husband than a girl

Artistic rugs can be made using the
recently shown blossom motif with
Towering vine border to match. Each
full blossom motif forms a circular de-
sign inside a square of background. The
rug can be in tiles of these patterned
squares with the design carried out in
alternating colors in alternate squares
with the background varying in similar
manner. For example, the background
in one can be old blue with the design
in Pompeian red while the square next
to it can have the background of the
red and the design in blue. The match
ing border would surround these squares.
In this the background of black, flowers
of red and vine of the blue would be
interesting. The two patterns can be
had for 10 cents. ease inclose self
addressed and stamped envelope. Direct
requests to Lydia LIE Baron Walker care
of The Evening Star.
The strands of yarn or rags that are
not being crocheted with, are crocheted
over and strands changed in the final
loop of the stitch preceding the change
in color. Another color design arrange
ment is to have the center of the rug
in solid color with the blossom motif
forming an inner border, and the
Towering vine the outer border, or the
borders can be used in reverse order.
Another charming color scheme is to
have the flowers of deep yellow, foliage
green and background French gray.
While these schemes are suggested, any
to go with the colors in the room in
which the rug is to be used are equally
good.
According to the use of patterns as
described, this same design can be en-
ployed for filet crochet for table runners
and doilies, towels, etc. Or for cross
stitch by counted stitches on canvas.

Does the Style Last? Who
Knows? Not /!
BY FLoEEECE LA GANKE.

Seldom has any new fashion created
the furore caused by the advent Of the
Empress Eugene hat. There is much
discussion as to whether the style will
last or go quickly into oblivion. If it
stays it calls for femininity in dresses
and coats. 1t also calls for many modi-
f1cationS for Older women.
Another requirement for the contin-
uation of the style is this-one must
learn how to wear the hat.
The hat does not belong pulled way
down close to the nape CT the neck. 1t
is not supposed to hug the lines OF
the bob
Neither is it supposed to be worn back
of the forehead, exposing both eyebrows
Fashion DEGREES that one eye brightly
shining is better than two eyes looking
out upon the world.
The shallow crown of the new hat
make it imperative that said hat be
worn with an air" otherwise the style
is lost
Perch the hat high. tilt it over the
right eyebrow. Do not cover the back
of the head as far down as the nape

able theory and yet, If 1t proves to be
true, 1 hope none of my readers will
allow such consideration to keep them
from enjoying fresh air and sunshine
IN the modern way, The health and
beauty that come from living as much
az possible in the open air should GER
tainly not be sacrificed for fear of en-
couraging unwanted growths Of hair in
q few cases.
Superfluous hair on face and limbs
is a serious beauty problem to many
brunettes, especially now when fashion
is favoring the distinctly feminine,
dainty types of beauty. There are ways
of treating this blemish, and the selec-
ton of the right method for each case
is very important. The wrong method
may cause a coarsenb of the regrowth
OF it may initiate the skin to a greater
or less degree. There are cases on rec
ord, for example. in which the skin has
been ruined by the use of certain power
full rays to destroy the hairs.
For most cases bleaching is by far
the NEST practical and effective solu-
ton to the problem of unwanted hair.

You wouldn't misleed your doctor about
where the pain is, so why try to TOOL
your financial doctor?" The actual
procedure of buying stocks is then
simple.
You place an order for a certain
number OF stocks with the broker. Some
one willing to sell that number of
shares then gives up his stock, and the
trace is made The stock certificate is
sent fer transfer and a new certificate
is issued in your name. This stock
certificate is evidence that you are the
owner of that proportion of the COM
pany's assets, and should be kept care
fully in your bank vault so that it may
not be lost or stolen.
The matter of income is important,
ard the security of the dividends should
be taken into consideration before you
select your stock. Usually dividends are
paid quarterly, but some ere paid
monthly, some semi-ennually and
few Only yearly. But remember that
dividends are paid Only if earned By
the company.
Above al, deal only with reliable
house and with a broker whose word
and judgment you cen trust. And even
then proceed slowly with the utmost
caution. sohering always to that old,
saving slogan: Before you invest, in
