pictured. let's consider the styling
points that add to their chic. The
traditionally correct topcoat to the
left is tailored of handloomed tweed
in herrlngbone pattern. Ii is single
breasted and full length, with free
straight hanging lines. BY the way,
advance models particularly stress
the importance of straight hanging
lines for spring coats. In warm
red brown this coat combines beau.
tifully with sports costumes of any
type or color.
The high round collar and loose
sturdy topcoat of luxurious tweed
centered in the group are eminently
youthful. A fine line check in deep
brown is striking against the light
tan background in wide herringbone
weave. Leather buttons at the
front closing repeat the deep brown
accent. Leather is another interest
ing theme for spring. II is used for
pipings. for buttons, for applique
and various other trimmings.

A Bandanna Doll Has Old Time Charm

IF YOU want to make very big
doll, use two hanks of yarn and
the biggest red bandanna hand
kerchief you can find. Smaller
dolls made from one hank and a
medium size handkerchief are al
so attractive.
Tie the hank at the top as at A,
then cut it across the bottom.
Make the head by tying the yarn
in as at B, then separate part of
the strands at the sides and bind
them together to make the arms
as at G and D. Cut these strands
off as at E to make the hands.
Bind the rest of the yarn around
as at F to define the waistline
Thread a large needle with white
darning cotton and make the
mouth and eyes with several
stitches made as shown here. Sew
small black buttons or beads in
the middle of the eyes.
Cut a square out of the center
Of the handkerchief The square
piece you cut out should be big
enough so it may be cut through
the center from corner to corner
to make two triangles-one to be
used for the head kerchief for the
The Coolidge examiner., 1938-01-20

doll and one for the three cornered
shoulder kerchief. When this is
done, gather around the square
hole in the center of the bandanna
and draw up the gathering thread
to make the full top of the skirt.

The Archko Volume

IN 1879 Rev. w. D. Mahan, Cum
L berland Presbyterian minister Of
Boonville, Mo, published a book
called THE Archko Volume" 1t
purported to be an official report Of
the trial and death Of Jesus Christ,
made directly to the Emperor Tt
berius by Pontius PLATE, governor
Of Judea, which Mahan asserted he
had obtained from the Vatican in
Rome.
It's authenticity was Immediately
attacked but Mahan defended his
work so vigorously that many peo-
pie were convinced that it was genu-
inc. Later he expanded the book
with the addition Of other docu-
ments, giving many new facts"
about the life of Christ. These, ne
asserted, he had obtained in the
Vatican and in Constantinople.
Since that time the Archko Vol
ume has been reprinted in many
different editions in many different
cities; it has been translated into
foreign languages and thousands Of
copies Of it have been sold all over
the world. Despite the fact that
DR.. Edgar J. Goodspeed of the Uni
versity of Chicago, an eminent au-
thority on early Christian literature,
has proved that the book is fake
from beginning to end, many people
still believe it authentic. And
strangely enough an original print
ing of this fake is now considered
a rarity and valuable piece Of
Americana, and several copies have
been sold for as much as $50 each.

A Bath for Miss Liberty

ITO THE city editor of every New
l. York newspaper several years
ago came an announcement from
the American Patriotic League"
that the Statue of Liberty was going
to be given bath. 1t had been de-
cided that the film of dust and
smoke from passing steamers must
be removed from Bartholdi's ia
NOUS statue but in order to avoid
possible injury to the metal, the an
nouncement said, new supersuds
solution would be used.
The story, printed in all the pa
pers, was picked up by the press
associations and carried all over
the country. Immediately the col
umnists and newspaper paragraph
ers began making wisecracks about
Miss Liberty's bath and it became
one of the leading topics of the day
But when an inquiry about the pro-
posed bath was made at the War
department. which then had juris-
diction over Bedloe's island, Of
ficials there said they knew nothing
about the matter. Then one New
York editor became suspicious. He
dug up the original announcement
and looked at the address of the
American Patriotic League"
BY a strange coincidence it was
the same address as that Of an ad-
vertising agency handling publicity
for a soap company that was ready
to put new soap product on the
market!

the news about hunters up in Can

against packs of ferocious timber

J. w. Curran, editor of the Sault

that it was all a hoax. He had at
temped to interest outside newspa-
pers in the resources of the Algoma
wilderness and had failed. So he
turned to wolves to help him. The
non-existent ferocious beasts turned
the trick.
Tourists were attracted to the
area in increasing numbers. Even
the discovery there Of low grade
iron ore deposits as the result OF
the provincial governments offer
ing a bounty for developing iron

campaign.
But after awhile Mr.. Curran be-

accomplished his purpose and in
an editorial he exposed the hoax.
He said, ANY man who says he

he offered a $500 reward for any
one who could claim that an Algoma
man had been attacked by wolf.
That reward is still standing for no

to the fiery speeches by the

ing the idea that women should
vote. Finally the old woman
walked to the front of the

and long lashes is definitely
over according to theater
managers throughout the
country. William Powell,
Clark Gable, Paul MUM and
Spencer Tracy are the cur
rent idols of audiences every
where, and the most up and
coming young actor is James
Stewart.
Certainly if the Metro-Goldwyn-
Mayer story department continues
to do as well by young Stewart as
they have in Navy Blue and Gold"
he will soar to the very crest Of the
wave of success. Lanky and home
ly, Jimmy Stewart has naturalness
and shy sincerity that endear him.
Almost every company has had
try at making a picture about mid
