MARGOT GARRET PLANS
TENNIS COMEBACK
Former Champion Sails For Europe
-May Compete at Wimbledon
and Forest Hills

May Compete at Wimbledon
and Forest Hills
Margot Garret Lester, former women's
tennis champion, sailed for Havre this morn
ing on the Lafayette. After retirement of
two years which followed her marriage, she
is planning comeback which may lead to
Wimbledon and Forest Hills if she finds that
her long absence from big-time tennis has
not taken the keen edge from her game.
The eyes of the tennis world will be upon
her in the warm-up tournaments in which she
will play during a brief sojourn on the
Riviera. She appears to be in excellent con-
dition, but would make no prophecy as to
her chances for success.

Continued from last week.
The season of 1927 was q
very good one. The crops
were large and the prices
were fair. HursheI Callahan
that year put 1000 bushels
Of wheat into the elevator
for the Union Central Life
insurance Company of Gin.
cinnati. 1t was premium
wheat, which was sold for Ov.
er $4,000. Recalling the con-
tract price OF S45,OO for this
land, it seems nearly one
fourth Of the purchase price
was paid the first year. But this
took labor, long days of relentless
toll. And the wheat was not all
that Callahan paid-there were
other small payments, too.
The Union Central was SO pleas
ed with the showing that Gala
han had made, that its Billings
manager, Mr.. H. B. Smith, pro-
posed that he buy three more adj
joining farms, old homesteads
which the company had foreclosed
in the years past-the George A.
Simmons homestead; the Thomas
J Spain homestead, and the Dali
bert e. Wells homestead, $50 ac-
res In all. Callahan was encour-
aged by what he had accomplish
ed. His relations with the COM
pany had been satisfactory-he
got along with it fine. Again he
talked the matter over with
"Mom" and the boys. They ale
ready had their original half sec
ton homestead Of fine land on the
reservation, which they farIned
each year. And they had bought
1853 acres besides, making 2073
acres. The company wanted them
TO buy $50 acres more. If pur.
chased it would make a farm Of
1853 acres. It was a big farm but
there were seven sons to divide it
among, besides Hurshel, and also
the daughters. So it was not 80
much for this section.
The company had been very ac-
commodating and made very rosy
promises. If anything happened It
would stand by the Callahans--
they had nothing to fear and just
could not lose. Hurshel had Just
had a lot Of business dealings with
the company outside of the farm
deal, which had always been salts
factory. HursheI had credit with
the company, he could draw On
them il he needed money for farm
operations or cattle deals, etc. The
company had faith in the Gala
hans, and showed it.
The offer made on the three adj
joining homesteads seemed easy.
The Union Central Life offered
the $50 acres for $27, 200 or about
$28.33 per acre. A big price FOR
land in this country, yes. But in
comparison with land in Minneso-
ia, Iowa, South Dakota, etc., very
cheap. But the company asked FOR
nothing down on this contract.
The interest at 8 per cent on the
priciple would start January /,
1928, and the whole to be paid for
in 26 annual payments, the first
payment due Jan. 1, 1929 was FOR
interest only, amounting to 1852.

"Would it be proper to invite
guests just to a luncheon at a

ton

A house wedding may be formal
or as informal as the bride chooses
to have it. If it is formal, the
bride wears a formal wedding gown
and bridal veil; the groom, appro.
pirate with this formality, wears
formal day clothes, cutaway coat
and dark striped trousers.
If it is informal, the bride wears
an informal costume, and the
groom wears a business suit. When
the ceremony takes place at par
Sonage, it is considered best taste
for the bride and groom to dress
informally. Often they wear their
going away dress.
Yes, to your second question.
Since 1 judge that this luncheon
is to be an informal one, the in
vitation would appropriately be in
formal, written note of invita-
ton. Your mother, or whoever is
the hostess of your home, should
send out these invitations, and
they read something like this:

"E'VE written of chin
" straps before, but his
one is remarkable for two rea-
sons-first, it different from
those we've run before, and
secondly, it is to be sold all
this week at a very VERY
special price. Sorry we didn t
find it sooner, and tell you the
first of the week. 1t was de-
signed by one of the more ia
nous specialists, and is of a
special material that is cool
doesn't make you perspire, and
thus ruin part of the effects Of
the cream. The cloth doesn t
absorb the cream, either. It
tlgntenS the muscles under the
chin and through the throat,
so as to do away not only with
that saggy look, but it helps
crepey throats, too. With it
you use a special cream that is
very rich in emollient oils,
and will prevent new lines and
wrinkles, and will do wonders
to prevent the crepey look in
yeur throat that usually comes
with the years. These two items,
the chin strap and the cream
usually sell for $5, but this week
only they are So That's really
a saving!
