clothes will have that distinctive
air that's so important. l be-
lieve that the movies have helped
considerably in making women
'clothes-conscious' and as a
result they have achieved an air
of smartness in following the

that they lacked years ago.
"Of course, one should never
forget" she smilingly concluded,
that the gowns worn on the
screen are hardly practical for
everyday use but they can
be modified and they have
been most successfully, too. One

Says Short Crop
- = IL ~ -
Decs net Solve
Wheat Problem
Officials Point Out That One Average
Year Withsut Control Would
Restore Old Surplus.

WASHINGTON, D. In spite Of
the shortest wheat crop since 1888,
there is every reason for going ahead
with the Government plan for wheat
control"
This is the answer given by Sec
rotary Henry A. Wallace when asked
If reports for an unusually small wheat
crop this year would change the Azri-
cultural Adjustment Administrators
program for bringing wheat produc-
tion into line Nth effective demand
by reducing acreage
The carryovAr of wheat in the United
States, as Of July |, 1888, is estimated at
$50 million bushels, giving a total OF
about $50 million as the supply for the
coming year. Disappearance, or con-
sunaption for the year, including do
rsestic uses, seed, and possible ex-
ports, is figured at about $50 million
bushels, figured conservatively.
An average crop next year. on the
basis Of normal seeded acreage, would
run about 845 million bushels, giving
a total supply of billion bushels or
more. This would mean an immediate
return of the conditions responsible
for the ruinous wheat prices Of recent
years, with carryover at least twice
normal
One average crop, in other words,
would destroy all the temporary relief
possible from this years small wheat
crop. Controlled and reduced produe-
ton, to bring about balance between
wheat supplies and demand, is held to
be essential.
Another factor which should be
taken into consideration, according to
the wheat control administration, is
the danger that present raised prices
may have tendency to stimulate in
crease in seeded acreage-unless the
production control measure is carried
out.

The tired sun comes home to rest.

But sturdy and strong your hold your

Winters SHOWS fill high,
Your reservoirs from out the sky.
Warm summer winds wash your face
And beautiful green shrubs spring into
place;
look at you with a reverence divine.
For as long as ! live you are mine
Friends come and 60 along the way,
But you alone will always stay.
To bring Joy of living and ALWAYS
looking up,
To thank you for the pure water
That fills my cup.
No matter where I travel.
No matter where I roam,

Are calling me home.

Best Players For
New Ball Club
Men Selected From Two Teams for New
Organization-Battlc Colored
Giants Again Sunday.

There will be ball game on the
Libby diamond next Sunday between
the Colored Giants of the Pipe creek
camp and a reorganized Libby team.
The best players from the Libby town
team and the Libby Cubs are being
worked into a new organization In
this new aggregation there is an
abundance of good material and out
Of it there is no question that team
can be developed that will call forth
the spirited support Of all Libby fans
They are going into the Sunday game
with a determination to take the Gaints
to beating, following two defeats by
the colored boys.
After the two games in which the
Giants have participated here, they
need no introduction to Libby fans.
They are a clever team. With either
Peorsall or Perry ON the pitchers
mound and Stevens on the receiving
end, they have plenty Of battery
and with Manboy clouting out
q home run or two and with two or
three other strong men with the bat,
and with fast support, they comprise a
team that will be hard to defeat. I'm
doubtedly large attendance will be
out to see fast game Sunday.
