a CHARMING basque frock for
\ growing girls, and house
dress for large figures, both
smart and becoming, both easy
to make. Even if you've done
very little sewing, these patterns
are easy to follow. Each one
is accompanied by complete and
detailed sew chart. And a tour
through the shops will show you
irresistible new fabrics to make
them up in. .
Basque Dress for Girls.
No wonder girls love a basque
dress like this! The fitted waist
with it's basque point in front gives
them such a grown-up feeling. The
full skirt, square neckline and puff
sleeves are so becoming. Make
this dress up for your daughter
in taffeta or silk crepe in time for
Easter, and later on in printed
percale or dirnity.
Large Women's Dress.
The diagram shows you how
easy this dress is to make, and
it fits to perfection. Notice the
raglan shoulder line, the waist
line snugged in by darts. The
roll collar, with the smart little
tab in front, is very soft and
becoming. Very comfortable to
work round the house in, this
dress is sufficiently tailored so
that you can go shopping in it, too.
Make it up in percale, Bingham,
broadcloth or tub silk.

OttoFlom On
New Advisory
Pea Board
PRESIDENT OF LOCAL
ASSOCIATION WILL
SERVE 10 GROUPS

Otto Flom of Delhi was picked
Monday night by fellow directors
of ten southern Minnesota pro-
duction credit associations hold
ing a two-day conference at the
Burton hotel in Mankato to re-
present the associations on a new
advisory committee that is to be
perfected in the next few weeks
This committee will form an add
ed means of quick contact be-
tween local associations and the
Production Credit Corporation OF
st. Paul which supervises about
70 such organizations in four
states.
Four members have already
been chosen by Michigan and
Wisconsin Pea conferences to re-
present similar groups and three
other conferences are to be held
in Minnesota and North Dakota,
at each of which the directors will
be given the chance to choose one
of their number to sit on this in
ter-state "PCA advisory commit
tee.
Mr.. Flom is president of the
Redwood Falls Production Credit
association. The plan has been in
itiated by the st. Paul supervising
corporation to give it "the view
point of the man on the farm
says President George Susens.
"We want to keep in touch with
the ideas and viewpoints of the
35 900 farmers we are serving"
Mr.. Susens said. "There are about
70 associations, each with its own
board of directors. We meet in
conference once year and again
at the annual stockholders meet
ings, but we have felt for some
time there ought to be way to
get in contact with these farmers
oftener than that. Sometimes
problems arise that we have to
decide upon in st. Paul and we
would like to be in position to
get the farmers ideas as guide
toward the right decision.
"The plan is wholly voluntary.
The committee can not exercise
any legal functions, but that will
not prevent its farmer represent
atives from telling us their view
points which should be fairly re-
preventative of the membership.
To make the plan fully cooper
alive and democratic we are ask

Southern Senators
Fight Compromise

Washington-(P)-A threat of
southerners to fight previously
