A LITTLE SATURDAY TALK.

As you may have noticed, the present month is just like the months which We shall have if the "New Calendar is put into effect. Feb ruary. this year, began on Sunday: and it will end on Saturday. It will contain exactly four weeks.
 The New Calendar would give us 13 months just like this one. and each month would contain a Friday the thirteenth"
 A Corner reader wrote to me say ing that he would be sorry to see the New Calendar because it would contain 13 months in which Friday fell on the thirteenth. Perhaps he was joking, and I hope that such was the case. In this day and age we should be free from the Super stitions" which have made people afraid in the past.
 Friday the thirteenth is just as good day as any other in the year. The reason for the fear of it goes back to the death of Christ. Christ was crucified on Friday, and IS persons sst at table the night before the cruci1xion.
 Do you think that is a reason to be afraid of Friday the thirteenth?
 Cases have been named of persons who have died after meals at tables with IS persons eating; but we must remember that in our world, the sadness, of death comes often. l. is sare to say that more persons have died after meals with three or four others than after meals with a dozen companions.
 Last summer, while I was in England, several persons told me that black cats "bring good luck" Tn saying $ the other way around in the United States. So far as can see, black cats are no more lucky" and no more "unlucky" than white cats The only difference is that a black cat does not give notice when Tn need of a bath.

long hair, which seemed to
be having quite a vogue a sea-
son or so ago, is now definitely
going out again. This, accord
ing to Emile, is not only the
verdict of hairdresSers, but is
the choice Of women themselves.
He Is Just back from Paris and
Berlin, where he attended con.
ventionS Of artists from more
than 20 countries, so he is
capable Of discussing interna-
ttonal fashions. He estimates
that about Is per cent of the
women in Europe have long
hair, and only about a fourth Of
the women in America still cling
70 their long treSSeS. and this is
usually only the case because
they have an adamant hus-
band. or some other member of
the family who objects to cut
ting their hair.
Short Hair Younger
These eminent hairdressers
advocate the long bob for the
younger girl and young woman,
and the shorter haircut for the
older woman. This is sound for
two reasons. In the first place,
o shorter haircut makes a
woman look much, much
younger. And then it takes
more care, and older women
who do not live in such a rush
are apt to have more time, so.
that they can give the neces-
sary attention to their hair.
Some women prefer hair a little
longer than a long bob, in
which case they can fold it over,
so that it lies flat, and does not
make a hat uncomfortable.
The roll is still good, and some
times in the evening two rolls
appear, one over the other.
Waves Are LOOSer
Curls are more essential than
ever, and require more attention
to be really lovely. Waves are
looser, and may be arranged in
much more original and ind1-
vidual ways. A clever hair
dresser can cut and curl your
hair so that you are really trans
formed, and he will devise
hairdress for you that you
can keep in shape for yourself
between trips to him. OF course
perfect care and health are es-
sential to beautiful hair, but
that is so well known now that
1t seems unnecessary to men
ton it.
Ornaments Return
Ornaments are now permis-
sible in the evening, and often
add just the right note to- the
coiffure, but they are always
rather simple, and used spar
ingly. In case your dress is
rather elaborate, it is well to let
the hair be natural and without
ornament, but with a perfectly
plain velvet or other simple
dress, a hair ornament is often
very beautiful and quite dis
tinguished look ing. We are
showing a photograph of a

Farmer Upheld in
Machinery Action

The state supreme court has af-
firmed a verdict Of the Hettinger
county district court in which o. B.
Holden, Bucyrus, was awarded judg-
ment of $3052 against the Advance
Rumely Thresher company in an ac-
ton Involving purchase of tractor.
Holden, after receiving the tractor
and operating 1t. claimed the ma
chinery was defective and sought re-
turn OF the money paid for it. On
the refusal of the thresher company
to do 80. action was brought in dis
trict court where a verdict was re-
tured for Holden. and this was af.
frmed by the higher court.
The case is similar to one in which
the supreme court recently upheld the
constitutionality of statute under
which the purchaser of certain farm
machinery may break his contract
and recover the money paid if the ma :
chinery is found defective after it is
placed into use. The -upreme court
based its decision in the Holden case
on the holdings of the previous de-
cision. which is tc be appealed by the
machinery firm to the United States
supreme court.
