field.
Delaware-Work mostly small, and
being done by speculative builders,
partly without the help of architects.
New Jersey-Ratio to normal very
low, and confined to residential or
Government projects.
Northwestern Pennsylvania - Only
very small work, apparently with pros
poets improving.
pittsburgh-Gradual improvement
in private practice. many Of the mem
bers Of the institute having busted
themselves outside of their ofiices dur
ing the depression; tendency of the
larger corporations TO establish their
own architectural departments, as has
the board Of education.
Philadelphia Report.
Philadelphia - Considerably below
normal; principal active work that
financed by the municipality or vari-
GUS Government agencies, but pros
poets improving in residential build
ing.
Washington. Activity in larger
speculative residential building nil;
ranges in varying degrees up to 80 per
cent OF normal IN semi-public, re-
modelling and small residential work,
with improved prospects for 1887.
Scranton, Wilkes-Barre. - Building

Long Prairie Man Has
Million Year-OId Claim.

Long Prairie-E. A Williams, local
resident has in his possession a COM
plete clam thought to be more than
a million years old. 1t is in perfect
condition. While Mr. Williams taught
school many years ago at Glen Rock,
Wyoming, a geologist explored in that
vicinity and about 20 miles from Glen
Rock came across a red sandstone for
nation which with another in Canada,
IN his opinion, are the oldest parts Of
the present North American continent
Mr.. Williams was one day invited 70
go with the geologiSt to the deposit
where some excavations were TO be
made in an effort to find anything
that might shed further light on the
ancient history of North America.
Somewhat weary after a Is to 20 mile
hike, Mr.. Williams sat down while the
geologist went about his work Idly
looking about him, he discovered what
appeared to be a little clam, all but
buried in the formation. With a rock
he picked out the clam, which was per-
fectly formed and almost as perfectly
preserved. The geologist unhesitating-
ly declared it to be more than a million
years old.

North Shore HighUay
improvement Approved.

Because of action by the Public
Domain committee of the Minnesota
House of Representatives, rejecting a
proposal to alter plans, the state High
way department is going ahead with
its program to improve Trunk Highway
No. 81 northeast from Reservation
river, at an estimated cost of approx
mately $370,000, and has called for new
bids to be opened March 49, The bids
call for the grading and crawling of
81 miles of the new north shore route,
which will be approximately 10 miles
when completed. The road is to have a
gravel surface.
The new route, when completed, will
shorten T. H. No. 81 from Reservation
river to new junction with the present
highway in Canada by about three miles
and will swing the road along the lake
shore to a point about a half-mile
southeast of Grand Portage. The pro-
posal, rejected by the committee, would
have heightened the old road by about
a half mile, swinging sharply north
from the original highway plans after
altering the road few miles east of the
river. The resolution opposing the i'm
provement, sponsored by small group,
was generally opposed by all civic
groups and local governments on the
north shore, as well as by the Chip
pewa Indian council.
Construction is expected to start early
In the spring, according to o. L. Kipp,
construction engineer of the Highway
department. The improvement to be
made this year will not open the road
TO the border and Mr.. Kipp said plans
for the last six miles have not been
completed as yet. The new road will
connect with the Grand Portage Min
eral road, however.

BY MARJORIE ELLIS McCRADY
Fashions Editor OF
THE MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL

Minneapolis, March 11-How do
1ashlon changes come about? They are
quick, over night SO to speak, or what ?
TheSe are questions asked me every
day. Let's see what the answers are.
Fashion changes come about because
people change. Last year spring found
women restleSsly walking up and down
the streets of the great fashion centers.
Women were worried s. the world was
worried Europe was again finder
box it still is, but worry wears it
self out after a certain time.
Designers created loose and compar-
atiVely fitleSs clothes for the world of
nervous pacing women. The psychol-
ogy OF dress designing is an interesting
one. Every woman in the world last
year kept one, if not both eyes, trained
on the headlines of her newspaper.
Designers were quick to realize this
and to make headlines the inspiration
OF fashions. There began the Spanish
influence as well as the coronation.
Both continue to be front page stories
so both continue to influence the
fashion world.
just as the world does not change
abruptly, neither do fashions Ten years
ago women grew wistful for long skirts.
They were weary of the nakedness of
their seldom shapely legs. Designers
sensed this but they weren't silly enough
to drop the skirts from knee-length to
the ground in one fell swoop. They
gradually heightened our dresses. Inch
by inch they pulled them towards the
floor. And for ten years the longer
skirt was in fashion.
This spring we are less hectic, less
restles and unhappy. We are returning
to the more gracious and romantic pre-
war way of thinking. But even this

Cloves Worn 81 Years
Are Still in Service.

Belle Plaine-A pair of gloves that
have kept Frank Weibeler'S hands warm
for 81 years are still in service. He has
worn them every winter for 81 years and
claims they are good for many more
winters. The gloves, made of mocha, a
soft pliable leather from the skin of
an Arabian goat, were given to Frank
in 1900 by his mother who told him to
take good care of them and not lose
them.

years ago, he met Madame Veuve-

daughter he taught English. Upon her

Buffalo Hunt Staged
at Park in MunkatO.

Mankato- reminiscent of pi-
oneer days were re-enacted at Sibley
park recently in an honest to-goodnesS
buffalo hunt. The hunter" was Art
Finney, ans the victim, Toby, two-year-
old bull. Toby was chased down into
a corner Of the deer yard at the park
and executed on the run by four shots
from Finney's high-powered rifle. The
first shot, near the heart and through
the body just back of the front legs,
dropped the young bull. but he shook
himself and attempted to rise Three
more shots ended his brief career. Al
though the buffalo yard at the park
is spacious, it isn't big enough for two
buffalo bulls and so Toby had to be
executed to halt the strife He weighed
between 300 and 900 pounds.

COlUs Chinned on Ice
Wait for Rescuers.

Walker-C Ginning themselves ON the
edge of the ice and treading water to
keep to the surface, two cows belonging
to John Wynn, Powers township far
mer, patiently awaited rescuers to take
them from an icy bath. The ice on
Pickerel lake had broken under their
weight as they approached their usual
water hole and they plunged into IS
feet of water. The fact that the ice
at this spot was only two inches thick
greatly handicapped the rescue men,
who finally were able to fasten chain
about the head of each animal and one
by one pull them to safety.
