Color Helps Express
Child's Personality
Bright and Light CoIors Found Best
In Summer Clothing for Children

Little children enjoy bright and
light colors in their clothing which
can be made to fit their personalities
and natural coloring, believes Miss
Edna Callahan, extension specialist in
clothing for the Ohio State university.
The more delicate the coloring and
retiring the disposition of the child,
the more delicate may b. the color of
his clothing, she says. However, this
child above all others needs color in
his clothing, not drabness and gray
ness. The more vivacious child with
the more vivid coloring may wear
brighter and gayer colors in his
clothing.
Of all materials, cotton is the best
for children's summer clothing. Such
sturdy materials as percale, gingham,
print, broadcloth, madras, picue, and
suiting may be used to advantage. For
little girls "dress-up" suits she recon-
mends such materials as the thinner
printed muslin, voile, batiste, lawn,
organdie and Swiss. Most cotton ma
terials may be had in qualities and
celors that will stand frequent laun-
dering and much exposure to the sun
without serious damage.
Although both plain and printed
fabrics are used in children's clothing,
the stripes checks and conventional
patterns seem better suited to boys
clothing than some of the dainty flor
al patterns. The pattern should be in
scale with the size of the garment or
part of garment it is to be used for.

Slowly Recovering
From Long Illness

Mrs. H. j. Holcolnbe, of Fostoria,
formerly of London, is reported as

Mrs. Holcombe is a patient in the
Flower hospital in Toledo where she
has been confined for the past sew
eral weeks. The Holcombe family re-
sided here for several years during
the time Rev. Holcombe was pastor
of the London Methodist church.

Would Feed Grain
To Cows on Grass
Production of Medium and High Yield
ing Cows Increased by Grain
Supplement-

Feeding grain to medium and high
producing cows on pasture will help
increase milk yields, says Ivan Nickel
lip, specialist in dairying for the ag-
ricultural extension service at the
Ohio State university.
In supplementing pasture with grain
1T should be remembered, he states,
that the percentage of protein in the
grain ration need not be the same as
for winter feeding Good pasture is
an approximately balanced ration.
The following grain mixture, Nc
kellip believes, may be used for sup
plementing pasture: For bluegrass,
timothy or the ordinary run of Ohio
pastures, it is a good idea to feed a
parts corn, parts ground oats, and
part cottonseed meal by weight For
clover pasture a good supplement
might be made by mixing equal parts
by weight of ground corn, ground oats
and bran.
Pastures are SO dependent upon
rainfall that they are almost certain
to require some kind of supplementing
pasture crop during dry periods. Spe-
cial crops may be grown for such pas
ture shortages, but compared with the
standard farm crops they usually in
volved added expense and added in
convenience. Alfalfa, soyheans, sweet
clover, sudan grass, oats and peas or
second growth clover are excellent
emergency pasture crops. Silage is
another very desirable sueculent feed
to supplement pasture.

A Fine Record

The president Of the National Board
of Fire Underwriters, in his recent
annual address, said: "If we calmly
and dispassionately review and con-
slider the actual facts of the achieve
ment of stock fire insurance during
the past two and half years Of deep
ening economic confusion :. it quick
ly becomes apparent to US that not
the slightest real ground exists for
dissatisfaction with the record the
companies have made under circum-
stances of extreme difficulty -. The
truth is that during this period of
well-nigh unexampled business con-
traction, depression and disaster stock
fire insurance stands almost alone :. :.
as not having failed in single one of
the vast obligations to which it was
committed and as not having inflicted
a single dollar of loss upon the pub
lie which looked to it for the protee-
ton of its most vital interest. In
these regards stock fire insurance is
not giving a fresh demonstration of
that unshakable strength and depend
ability which have been found to char
acterize it in every previous period of
financial upheaval for more than
century past"
This is the record of one Of the
most democratic of all businesses
and it is a record worth talking about.
Any acceptable risk can find stock
fire insurance policy to cover it, at a
rate commensurate with the hazard
offered, and the owner may be as GER
tain that his contract will be fulfilled
as he is that stable government will
be maintained. Stock fire insurance
eliminates chance, so far as the prop
erty owner is concerned-it stands as
a bulwark between him and ruin.
Few, if any, businesses have as re-
markable record of stability, depend
ability and strength, under all condi-

Auto Financial
Responsibility Laws

One of the greatest problems Incl
dent to the distressing automobile ac-
cident situation is the financial ire
sponsibility of surprising number Of
persons who operate automobiles on
state highways.
Many states have already recognized
the immediate necessity Of eliminat-
ing this danger. According to the Ma
ticnal Bureau Of Casualty and Surety
Underwriters, 20 states have enacted
financial responsibility laws as have
four Of the Canadian provinces. One
state, Louisiana, is considering the
passage Of such law, and Congress
is determining its advisability for the
District of Columbia.
These laws have obvious advan-
tages Primarily they avoid compul-
sorry insurance, an idea obnoxious both
to insurance companies and the insur-
ing public as has been aptly demon
strated in Massachusetts. They pro-
mote the cause of safe driving and
help eliminate reckless, careless and in
competent drivers. They are one of
/ the greatest aids to the enforcement
4 of traffic laws and ordinances. Above
all, they are strong assurance that
these injured in automobile accidents
will not suffer financial expense which
should be borne by guilty party A
grave injustice is done to person
who has a good claim against an au-
tomobile owner, and cannot collect it
because that automobile owner is
! financially irresponsible.
The laws are enthusiastically sup
ported by the American Automobile
association. In fact, in most of the
states where the statutes are in force,
the law has been patterned after the
one drawn up by the A.A.A. The law
in New Hampshire is generally recog-
nized as the ideal type.
With the curve Of automobile acci-
dents consistently rising, it is appar-
ent that every effort must be made to
reduce both the frequency and sever
ity Of accidents. 1t is to be hoped that
laws compelling an automobile owned
to show proof of his financial respon-

ONE-R0OM SCHOOLS IN
OHIO DWINDLE RAPIDLY

For every five one-room
schools in Ohio seventeen
years ago, but two remain to-
day, according to the findings
of a rural school survey which
the Ohio Education Association
is now making. In 1915 there
were 9,198 one-room schools
in the state, but in 1892 there
were only 1907. In the eleven
year period from 1915 to 1926,
schools of this type were elm
mated at the rate of nearly
400 per year. Since 1926,
however, the reduction in num-
Der has been only a little over
200 per year.
Latest data available indi-
cate that seven counties in the
state have eliminated all one
room schools; these counties
are Champaign, Clark, Clinton,
Cuyahoga, Marion, Medina, and
Trumbull. Lake county has
but one such school, and Craw-
ford, Pickaway and Portage
counties have only two each.
Four counties still have more
than 100 one-room schools.
Belmont county leads with lis
Adams has los, Gallia, 104,
and Darke, 103.

Madison County Association
Gains So Per Cent in May
Stock Shipments Over
May Last Year

Paul A. Siple, of Erie, Pa, who was
selected from the membership of the
Boy Scouts of America to accompany
the Byrd Antarctic Expedition Of
1928-1932, will make another trip to
the South Polar regions as member
of the forthcoming second expedition
Rear Admiral Richard E. Byrd has
announced.
While it was reported that the ex-
pedition would leave from Boston this
September, Admiral Byrd said he
could not yet commit himself as to
date of departure.
Is Writer and Speaker
In addition to his achievements as a
young explorer Siple is also an ae-
complished writer and speaker. Dur
ing the summer of 1880 he wrote his
book, "a Boy Scout With Byrd"
which was released the following win
ter and has been said to be the "best
seller" in its class for 1881. Many or
ganizations have called upon Siple to
tell of his adventures at the "bottom
of the world"
Siple is an Assistant Scoutmaster
and despite heavy program at col
lege, has been very active in Scouting
since his return from the Antarctic.
He has been the guest of honor at i'm
portant Boy Scout functions in many
parts of the country. On the occasion
of the twenty-first anniversary Of the
founding of the Boy Scout Movement
IN the United States, Siple was a
speaker in the coast-to-coast radio
broadcast commemorating the event.
During the summer Of 1881, Siple
visited more than fifty Boy Scout
camps, involving over 5000 miles of
travel in sixteen states between New
England and Texas, meeting thou
sands of Boy Scouts. He has been met
with popular acclaim everywhere be-
cause of his exemplifcation of Scout
ing ideals.

Expedition to be Smaller
The new Byrd Expedition will be
smaller than the first. However, 15C
dogs, a larger number than before
will be taken in addition to two planes
and several tractors. Admiral Byrd
hopes to salvage the two planes left
behind at Little America when the
party sailed for home in February,
| 1880.
The object of the trip, Admiral Byrd
said, is to study more closely the ter
rltory, Marie Byrd Land, named for
Mrs. Byrd, discovered during his pre-
vious stay in the Antarctic.
One ship, the cutter Bear, built in
the '70's and used for years in Alas
kan waters by the Coast Guard, will
be used instead of the two as in the
first expedition. She is being fitted at
Oakland, Calf, where it was owned
by the city and used for some time as
the headquarters of the Oakland Sea
Scouts for their meetings and training
courses in Sea Scouting.
