Serious Accident

John Burns, Jr., met with a very
serious accident while saving wood
at the Ed Day farm last Tuesday
afternoon, where he was working
in company with his brother, Ger
hardt, the Humlick brothers and
others. John was throwing wood
away from the saw and in some
manner his foot slipped throwing
his left leg against the saw which
very nearly severed his foot just
above the ankle. His brother when
he saw what had happened, had the
presence Of mind to quickly tie a
tight bandage around his leg to
keep him from bleeding to death
until they could get him to the viii
lage. DR.. Laughlin hurried him to
Little Falls to st. Gabrieps hos
pital where his foot was amputated
and he Is doing as well as could be
expected. This Is a most regret
able accident as Mr.. Burns has
wife and four small children de-
pendent upon him.

Late Fashion
Flashes

A set idea that is smart IS
the hat, scarf and gloves all
matching. Such an ensemble is
done in white pique with red
patent, the sailor hat having
a crown band of the red leather,
while the brim is also faced
with it. The wide double scarf
has pleats and is trimmed with
narrow edge of the patent
while the white pique gloves are
finished with red patent ro-
SetteS.
Gaining fast is the dressy
coat, despite the popularity of
the suit. A delightful coat is
done in a pencil-striped black
and gray wooden. A feature
of the model is the square-cut
sleeve, marked by a full silver
fox skin placed over the shoul-
der and reaching to the elbow
back and front of the arm.

or they may be rather demure
looking. If you want the swish
and still want to be formal, you
can wear taffeta, made up IN
any of the intriguing ways that
cottons have made popular.
For Dinner in Town
When you're invited out to
dinner in town, it's a compl1-
ment to your hostess to wear
something that looks rather
dressed up. Most of the simple
little cotton evening gowns serve
that purpose admirably, yet are
not too formal in case the din
ner is just a family affair, or
very small. A good solution to
almost any summer problem is
a plain silk crepe dress with
ruffly jacket of organdie, or a
tailored coat in contrasting
color. Remember that coats
may be of cottons when the
dress isn't, for somehow they
manage to look formal anyway.
The new chiffons, satins, and
silk crepes of summer will do
for the evening weddings you
will attend, for a chance recep-
ton, or other occasion when you
want to be really dressed up.

Washington Fashions
By Wilma LaVille

Since evening clothes have
changed so much, both in
fabric and cut. some people are
perplexed as to just when to
wear them, and what with.
We've had a good many ques-
tions, such as Should cottonS
go to a reception?" and Don't
you think silks are better for
town wear?" Most Of the trou-
BILE revolves around cottonS,
for many women haven't learned
to consider them as formal
fabrics
For Resort Wear
CottonS such as pique and
printed linen are certainly cor
rect for most summer evenings,
for the usual summer dance or
dinner that isn't very formal.
Organdie, mousseline de sole
and the silks do look more for
NAL, and so may be seen more
in town, whenever there is an
occasional festive affair when
you think you must wear some
thing different. At the cour-
try club and at any resort, cot
tons seem appropriate, even
when they are most casual. If
you're near the seashorc, be
sure to have some, for they do
not show the ravages of salt air
as some silks do. They may be
made as extremely as you wish,
with low cut back and long skirt,

Thanks for Wedding Gifts

Thanks for Wedding Gifts
Dear Mrs. Beeckman:
I am to be married very soon
and it has been customary for
the employees in the office in
which I am employed to present
the prospective bride or groom
with silverware and for the COM
pany to present them with
check.
Will you please give me the
correct form to use to thank
them for the gifts? They will
be separate letters, of course.
Also, I would appreciate a
suitable letter to write to rela-
tives and friends in acknoWl-
edgment of gifts? B.
First I'd like to say that I am
most enthusiastic for the bride
to-be, whenever it is at all pos
sible, to write separate notes to
every contributor to general"
present. My feeling is that,
since each contribution was
made separately, personally,
each person should be thanked
separately. personally. Sounds
reasonable-don't you think so?
Even if the notes sound very
much the same, it is better taste
than to have blanket" thank

these notes, keep in mind that

the other hand, that every
case of eccentricity during
adolescence will necessarily
become one of dementia. Scores
and scores of boys and girls
are moody, contradictory in
their reactionS stubborn,
flighty, superficial in feeling
and more or less irresponsible.
A certain amount of this is nor
NAL during this important
transition period Of life.
These young people are try
ing to find themselves, as it
were; they are trying to under
stand the strange and new i'm
pulses which upset their physi-
cal and mental states; they are
really attempting to figure out
what it all means and how
best they can adjust themselves
internally, so to speak, as we'll
as to the world at large.
But if any Of the normal
manifestations which I have
mentioned become marked, if
in particular, a boy or girl be-
comes excessively Shut-in and
shuns the companionShip of
those he formely liked, or if
he begins to worry about his
height, or his strength, or his
heart, or insists something is
wrong with an organ even after
examination reveals that such
is not the case, then, I say, no
time should be lost in taking
such a youngster to a mental
specialist.
After dementia praecox has
progressed more definite delu-
sions make their appearance,
among which those of being
prosecuted are common. Hailu-
cinations of sight and nearing
may likewise occur, the pa.
tient seeing strange things or
hearing sounds that have no
basis in fact. Often, too, such
patients become awkward and
stereotyped in their move
ments; they may, for instance,
sit for an hour or longer scarce
ly without moving, just think
ing. Sometimes, also, they are
given to fits of giggling or
crying and when one inquiries
why, they are unable to give
an adequate answer.
Let us always be on the alert
for this dread disorder in all
the youngsters we know. For
scarcely can a sadder condition
be imagined than this chronic
and progressive mental malady
that sooner or later leads to an
asylum for the insane.

The Beauty
Box
BY HELEN FOLLETT

Foot discomfort and slumped
spirits form a close partnership.
Where there's limping, there's
not much laughter. Twinging
toes, tendons that are under
strain, burning soles throw the
central nervous system into a
panic and the world goes
swinging out of it's orbit. Prac-
tically all foot ills are due to
ill-fitting shoes or heels so high
that the body is thrown out of
balance. When women realize
that beautiful movements are
real asset, that the body can
not move gracefully and easily
unless feet are happy, they'll
pay more heed to the proper
housing of the little dogs that
carry them around all the day
long.
The lightweight who is
anxious to take on curves
makes mistake when she piles
in more food. What she needs
are foods of the kind that
make for tissue building.
Raisins are excellent. Milk is
a help, but should be made
rich with plenty Of cream. A
bowl of cereal in the morning
will put fat on ribs and else
where as well.
Eat at regular meal times.
The stomach requires five hours
to completely digest meal; to
crowd in groceries before the
time is up is to disturb the pro-
cesses Of assimilation. Good
looks are dependent upon health,
health is dependent upon good
eating habits. Not as interest
ing for the consideration Of the
beauty seeker as drug store
bushes and sassy coiffures, but
important just the same. A bal
anced diet will improve many a
complexion that is sallow, gray
or blotchy because certain valu-
able food elements are omitted.
Don't dig up dandruff with
your finger nails, Pretty One.
If you do, you may be a victim
of habit rash which develops un-
der such conditions. Small abra-
sions form, do not heal, invite
bacteria that may bring about
serious infection. To cure
dandruff give the scalp a hot oil
treatment the night before the
shampoo. Olive or mineral oil
will serve, but even better for
loosening scalp scales is a COM
bination of castor oil and rub
bing alcohol, equal parts. Shake
it we'll, trickle along partingS
with a large medicine dropper.
Friction for five minutes, wrap
the head in a towel that has
been wrung out of hot water.
Have the towel steaming, but
not dripping. Next morning get
out the melted soap and the
bath spray, go to it.
