THE fur-trimmed idea Is gaining.
i That a touch of fur is won
drously effective on gay sheer print
is one of the proud discoveries
made in the realm of fashion dur
ing the winter months and which
because of its exceeding great
charm holds promise of wide
spread vogue for the future.
Be the dine or dance gown of
sheer print or of heavier crepe 1t Is
almost certain to be styled with a
matching jacket and in almost
every instance the sleeves of the
complementary jacket, whether long
or short or in bolero fashion, are
quite certain to be bordered with
fur. Frequently the hemline of the
jacket is also fur-outlined.
Chiffon in woodland pattern
done in vivid colors on a black
background is the chosen medium
for the charming frOck In the IL
lustration. Wide fur borders the
sleeves of its accompanying bolero.
This winsome gown can be trans
formed into an evening formal SIM
ply by removing its short jacket
which Is the way Of most Of the
newer ensembles, the demand for a
The Sauk Centre herald. (Sauk Centre, Stearns County, Minn.) 1886-current, 1931-04-02

matching Jacket having increased
to such an extent that practically
every frock has its accompanying
jacket.
An exception to the gown with a
Jacket is the short-sleeved dress.
This type also subscribes to the
fur-trim idea in that the sleeves,
which in some instances are not
much more than caps and from
then on vary to elbow length, are
also bordered with fur.
For the evening mode the new
prints are very gorgeous and for
the most part patterned In large
florals. This is in direct contrast
to daytime prints which are con-
sentative both as to their colorings
which run largely to grays, beige
and browns.
Plaids, stripes and checks are
the smart new note in prints both
sheer and of firm weave. Some
times the plaid is indicated merely
by thin hairlines, then again the
plaided design is worked in definite
vivid cOlors and a third class is
charmingly interpreted In '1nvis-
ible" broken effects.

Excerpts From The Herald

Sank Centre needs a new school
building to house her public
schools. That's what Geo. B. Alton,
inspector of the state high schools,
says and the charge is Admitted
by the Board of Education.
Last Friday the wost wind and
dirt storm ever seen here ragged all
day long. The wind was from the
south, blew fifty miles an hour all
day long, carrying sand, dust and
dirt along with it, making life out
side almost uncomfortable.
Wilson Brothers, whose grocery
story was ruined by fire last week
Wednesday, morning, will probably
start up again as soon as the
store room which they occupied Is
repaired.

no sinecure to officiate as clerk Of

recommendations pile up to quite a
sizeable heap.

parentIy Await Action BY
New Congress

New York, Dec. 7.-(P)-The stock
market oecil1ated irresolutely Monday
while distinctly better tone develop
ed in bonds.
Markets generally were disposed to
await developments. Convening Of
congress, the meeting Of the railway
labor chiefs in Chicago, of the re-
parations advisory committee at
Basel, and important dividend meet
ings, gave promise of full week.
A fair rally developed but was
checked by liquidation which was
widely regarded in brokerage circles
as tax selling. Early advances of l
to 3 points were largely lost. New
York Central sagged 2 points below
Saturdays close and Standard of N.
j. more than l. in fairly active SELL
ing. u. s. Steel sold off a point,
then recovered partially.
There was better tone in the bond
market, particularly in the rails and
foreigns.
Selling to establish income tax loss
es usually is factor in the stock
market at this time and some brok-
ers thought they saw the first con-
elusive signs of it Monday.
A sag in the rail shares impaired
a heavy tone to the late dealings.
Sales were about million and halt
snares and several issues closed a
point or two lower.

MINNEAPOLIS FUTURES
MARKET Is STAGNANT

Minneapolis. Dec. 7.-(R)-There
was a dearth of news Monday and
the local wheat market failed to move
Importantly in either direction.
Opening prices were unsettled and
easy and then fairly snappy rally
followed, but before noon the market
turned dull and began to sag under
scattered pressure
Coarse grains moved with wheat.
Crushers bought flax futures.
December wheat futures closed lc
lower. May 3-8 lower, and July 1c
lower.
Cash wheat tone was slow and
easy. There was no change in win
ter wheat with demand somewhat
slower. Durum wheat of milling quail
ity is in very good demand but the
average run held slow and easy.
Cash corn inspections were SLOW
Receipts were more liberal and tone
was easier. Oats were slow and easy
Rye demand IS slow except for choice
milling types. Barley demand was
fair to good. Flax demand was fair
to good with offerings light.

DESPITE DECREASE
IN VISIBLE SUPPLY
.WHEATPRICED DROPS
Drouth Reports From South
western Section Are
Bullish Factor

Chicago, Dec. 7.-(ReDespite t.
5000 bushels decrease Of United
States wheat visible stocks and not
withstanding meagerness OF primary
arrivals, wheat prices averaged lower
Monday. Drought reports from do
mestic winter wheat territory SOUTH
west were bullish factor. On the
other hand, export business in North
American wheat lacked volume, to-
falling only 25o,oo0 bushels, altogether
Canadian.
Wheat closed nervous, unchanged
to = cents lower, Dec. 55la-N, May
58h-h. Corn unchanged to q off,
Dec. 36-361s, May ANS. Oats a
shade to M-ss down, and provisions
showing a rise of 2 to II cents.
Opening 9s-A cent lower, wheat
subsequently rallied somewhat. Corn
started at shade to q decline and
later steadied.
Fairly active speculative buying,
which sprang up during early set
backs in wheat prices. turned the
market upward later to above Sat-
urdays finish. More favorable ac-
ton Of the New York stock market
tended to induce buying. A further
stimulus to bullish sentiment came
from Russian reports that, allowing
for army requirements and the small
est possible reserves, government
collected grain now totaled less than
one-half the original estimates and
that all over Russia both state farms
and collective farms have been with
holding grain.
Persistent unsettled weather in Ar
gentina, together with consequent de-
lays to harvest, was reported. AS a
result, it was expected that no ship
ments of new Argentine wheat would
be made until early in January. The
amount of wheat on ocean passage
from all exporting countries was CIV
en- as 33,752,O 900 bushels, against 35,-
100, 1000 week ago and 900 at
this time last year. Corn and oats
paralleled the action of wheat prices
Provisions were responsive to up
turns in hog values.
