Style

Madame Style is the most i'm
posing and impressive figure of all
times. Her word is law to all
races including the uncivilized. Her
suggestions are treated like inval-
liable jewels and carried out with
the utmost exactness.
Who but Madame Style herself
could demand that all men and
boys wear cuffs on their trousers
and expect to be obeyed? Who
governs the shoe shops, dress
shops, in fact, all clothing shops?
Why, Madame Style of course. She
is the one who decides on what
finger rings should be worn, wheth-
er necklaces or teares are in order
for this season, and whether mems
socks should be heavenly blue
trimmed in green with white silk
toes and heels or whether they
should be just plain purple. Her
ideas extend even to the color ones
hair should be this season. / hope

NV Trip To Nova Scotia
Ronald Grier

Last August my grandmother
and 1 decided we would like to visit
Nova Scotia. We were to travel
on the boat Acadia. Before we
reached our boat we had the honor
of seeing the great boat Queen
Mary" docking in New Yorw har-
Dor. We left Mex York City about
1890 A. M.
Our boat was a very nice one.
We ordered deck chairs the very
first thing. As we sat there we
could see the sights along the way.
Each night there were movies to
entertain the people. The first
night, the water was very rough.
We did not land in Nova Scotia I'M
til about noon the next day.
At 11:30 we landed at Yarmouth.
AS we looked up and down the
dock we saw children of all ages,
barefooted and very poorly dressed.
begging for money. The town was
quaint and pretty. We hired a
taxi to drive us around the sur
rounding country. The farm hous-
es were very poor. The people of
Yarmouth do not farm very much
as the land is hilly and rocky. In
stead of using horses or mules for
working, they use oxen. Nearly
everyone fishes for a living. They
use open wells. This seems queer
because there are very few in the
Unitd States. We also stopped at
some fish hatcheries. In the NOV
les the people clapped when King
Edward of England came on the
screen, as England owns Nova
Scotia.
We left Yarmouth at 800 p. m.
and as the sun shone on the old
houses and the beautiful water, it
made us want to stay longer.

Playwright George S. Kaufman
will be represented on the local
stage the week of october 19
when Jane Cowl in "First Lady"
comes to the National Theater.
This saucy satire on Washing
ton personalities and society was
written in collaboration with
Kathryn Dayton, ran through the
full season at the Music Box
Theater in New York.
While the spotlight has been
playing furiouSly on Author Kauf-
man the past 10 days, Producer
Sam Harris has been trying to get
the playwright to finish and cast
"Stage Door," which he wrote in
collaboration with Edna Ferber,
and which is scheduled to be an
early Broadway production with
Margaret Sullivan from Holly
wood as the star. The new play
has 19 ingenue roles.
Just a coincidence, but the play,
"Merrily We Roll Along" which
Mary Astor confessed in her diary
she enjoyed in first reading, con-
Cerned a playwright and his peca-
dilloes.
Incidentally, Mary Astor, who
was the nations best seller on the
newsstands since the custody trial
opened, revealed herself to the
movie city as gifted writer. If
anything should happen to her
acting career it appears the star
might make a comfortable living
with her pen-or is it typewriter.

FARM CASH RECEIPTS
GAIN IL PERCENT, 1885

A II per cent gain last year in
farmers cash receipts from the
sale of principal farm products
and from rental and benefit pay
ments is reported by the Bureau
Of Agricultural Economics. Larg-
est gains were in the eastern corn
belt states, in Kentucky, Oklaho-
ma, and in the mountain states.
Total receipts from sales of
prlcipal farm products and from
rental and benefit payments were
$685., $4,000 in 1886 compared
with $6,102, 901 900 in 1884, with
$4,871, 608 900 in 1888, and S4,-
235, 1862, 900 in 1882.
Smallest improvement in income
was in the South Atlantic region.
The only states showing reduced
income in 1885 were Maine, Neb-
raska, North Carolina, South Car
DINA, Florida, Alabama, and New
Mexico.
Increased farm income last year
was due primarily to a 20 percent
rise In the general level of farm
prices, says the report. Crop price
gains were relatively small, 'rbut
prices for livestock and livestock
products advanced considerably
