in the honor column? And don't
you try every finesse in the hope OF
getting it?
It's the same way with bridge COS
tunes. A little flnesse in their
choosing, and you can feel better
dressed than just correctly dressed
Look for dresses with particular
ly interesting bodices. The obvious
reason for that is that the skirt
isn't seen most of the time. It's
under the table.
Or else choose a dress that's
extremely plain above the waist
and let it serve as a background
for some very good-looking, col

let's, pin or clip, or flowers.
A handsome necklace and a
matching ring for the hand that
holds the cards, would be one
way of combining accessories. Or
bracelets and a clip clipped at
the center of a V-neckline.

Just
Every
Day
Sense
BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON
xxTHEN men die, they like to

XXTHEN men die, they like to
w go back home. 1t is notice
able that those who have been
born in small towns, no matter to
what eminence they may have
risen elsewhere, express a desire
to be buried where their child
hood days were spent.
For mortals, when they come
to leave this world, return long
ingly to the things of their in
fancy. All the glittering gauds
that held such lure in life, dim
before that last lightning CLEAN
that comes with dissolution.
And so we have these endless
funeral corteges going from our
busy streets into the quiet of
some obscure spot, when the dead
go home again.
Those who are about to die
acquire new wisdom. And at
home, in all those little uninpor-
tant places, they know that old
friends will take the time to weep
for them awhile.
Business houses will be closed
for an hour or so, while they are
lowered into the tomb. The
church bells will rings a dirge and
all men there will feel a twinge
of sadness because they no long
er are among the living.
TN great crowded cities, where
i men rush after gold and more
gold and where the struggle for
bread goes ceaselessly on, We do
not have much time to give the
dead. There is a cruel hurry at
tending the passing of all except
a mighty leader.
The bodies Of once blithe and
beloved beings are hustled off the
scene as speedily as possible, lest
the living grow sad in contem-
plation of the ominous fact Of
death.
1ney ole In hospitals WITH
strange nurses watching them,
and their physical husks are
taken to formal funeral parlors.
where one group Of mour11ers is
hurried out to make way for an
other.
Where many men march to-
gether, the falling of one out Of
the great procession means little.
The gap IS filled and the stam-
pede toward eternity goes on.
But small or great, we are alike
In this. We may spend our whole
day in the market places, but
when night falls. we long to sleep
at home.

THE DOG CAME BACK.

Last week we ran little story about
the small dog that had adopted US.
Friday we received phone call from
Mrs. Smith of Burton, saying that the
dog was hers. On Saturday evening
Mr. Smith and Mary Jane appeared
to claim the wanderer. Mr.. Smith
said that he had purchased the littlc
fellow at the pound, in Seattle the
Saturday before, and that on Monday
he disappeared, and of course no one
knew how he reached Vashon from
their home near the Judd Greek
bridge.
We supposed that we had seen the
last of the small skippy, but Sunday
morning, very early, we heard him
barking. He had been let out of the
house after midnight, and had evil
IDENTIFY made his way back as fast as
his very short legs would carry him
1t is hard to tell what the early as
sociations of the dog have been, bu.
he seems perfectly at home in q
printing office, and we hope that he is
ours for keeps.

Company Is public institution. We
are servants OF the people. Public
trust has been impaired to us and we
must render a worth while service to
our customers. We must have public
confidence; we must have economic
merit or we will not survive. The
public invests It's savings in our bust
ness; they purchase the commodity
which we sell and we are, therefore,
their trustees and managers and our
job must be one of merit or they will
get some one else. We believe that
the furnishing of electric service is
essentially a business and economic
problem and not a political one. On
these principles, the Puget Sound

conduct its business"
