Detachable Cape Collars
BY MARY MARSHALL.

latest arrivals tn the realm Of
evening dress. You can attach

without. A black satin or chiffon eve
ming dress may Be supplemented with a
little chiffon velvet collar Of this sort
b be worn at the theater or for restAu-
rant dining, or left of for dancing.
Some OF the very new dresses are sold
with detachable cape collar weighted at
the edge with IN inch-wide band of
beads. The beads give the touch of
glitter that Is becoming increasingly
important this season and also serve 10

Whether you are slender or the re-

sort decidedly becoming and desirable
because 1t gives the effect Of added
width through the shoulders that &C.

There u one other way Of adding a
new touch to IN evening dress of which
you have grown weary, and incidentally
adding the touch Of glitter that most
women like. Buy two yards, more or

half or two inches in width. Cut of

and use strips Of the bugles instead,

do q certain thing and he replied, II
WON'T She waited bit until the
hurry she was in had ended, and then
said:
"Jacky, you mustn't speak like that
to mother. What ever made you say
7 won't to her, dear?"
Whereupon to her utter amazement
her little son lisped:
Il peaks to you as you peaks to me.
You say 'Jacky do this this, an I say
I won't"
As her young son unconsciously
mimicked his mothers tone Of voice,
she realized that the main fault lay with
her. The impatient command brought
the rebellion. Young as the boy was
his mother explained that she was hur-
ried, and not provoked with Jacky, and
that 1t hurt her for him to speak as he
did to her. This brought a mutual un-
derstanding. The incident goes to show
the reaction of child to q tense at

So during the days to come before

Farmer Browns Boy had found In the
hen house. He was comfortable, very
comfortable, more comfortable perhaps
than he would have been at home In

eat without the trouble Of hunting for
1t. He was safe, and that was more
than would have been the case in the

with a liking for tender young Possum
would all the time have been looking

couldn't go and come when he wanted
to.

and Father Brown he had no fear at

was the same way with Bowser the

Headed Woodpecker, the most famous
drummer in the bird world. He Is US
ing any sounding board handy to broad
cast the fact that he is grown up and
wishes to marry. Pretty soon, If you
are on to the ways Of this drummer,
less The little lady who later becomes
his wife has not only heard the cali but
radioed her acceptance.
These woodpeckers do not get their
food from the trees infested with borers
or grubs. They are the only members
of this family who catch their food on
the wing. The drumming Is for con-
versational purposes only.
They are fearless and select the most
conspicuous places on which to perch.
1t Is for this reason they are becoming
scarce. They make perfect target.
and the only protection these birds have
is to establish residence within the city
limits
In searching for a building site they
select fence post, telegraph pole or
they use their bills for boring There
are usually six white eggs, and the tiny
drummers Matched from them are awk-
ward looking, noisy little rascal. The
older members Of the family will try to
drown out their noise by making a
greater one. They seem to love to gather
for family confabs, and they "yarrow,
yarrow, yarrow," which, being inter-
preted means welcome to our city and
a good day to YOU fellows"
Being thrifty Is their outstanding vir-
tue. They gather grain. nuts and seed
while the harvest is plentiful, remem

lean times. Under the caves Of houses

In crotch of a tree and in some of
the most unheard-of places the red
headed woodpecker stores his supplies
Some have said that the woodpecker is
lazy because he stores his food rather
than take the long trip to the South
Be 1t as 1t may, he Is forehanded and
shows that he takes thought for the
morrow.
He is hunter Of rare skill. He can
catch an insect on the wing and devour
it while speeding through the air If 1t
be small one. If it is portly grass
hopper, it Is taken to his watch tower
and eaten at leisure.
The drummers have bad reputation
as corn eaters and birds egg destroyers.
This has been cleared up, as the
amounts of corn stolen and of eggs
broken were found to be very small
The contents of the stomach of the
woodpecker are 80 per cent grasshop-
pers, beetles and bugs; the other 10 per
cent a mixture of grass, borers, ETC. SO
more power to our little red-headed
friend.
This bird also goes by the name Of
white-shirt, jelly-coat and patriotic bird.
At first he was thought to wear the
colors Of the American flag, but the
colors are red, white and black-the
colors of the German flag.
