Fashion Editor Of
THE -
MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL

Last week we listed the college ward
robe requirements and promised to this
week add the lingerie necessities.
Except girl who is going South, she
had better take along two or three suits
Of "woolies." She will need them for
winter sports wear and there may be
certain days when she will find them
mighty comfortable on the campus.
1t is best to buy cotton or cotton knit
undertakings for college wear So take
4 pair of cotton knit snuggies. Two
pair of silk panties with matching bras
for week end and party wear. Four in
expensive bra for everyday. Three day
time slips, and possibly one evening slip
Two everyday girdles Or garter bands,
and one for dress wear. Ten pair of
stockings all the same color, so you will
have plenty of spars to match. Three
pair of sheer evening hose, and six pair
of anklets for school wear
An inexpensive housecoat is indis-
pensable for dormitory and weekend
wearing. This may be of silk, rayon,
cotton or flannel. Lounging pajamas
are necessity. Don't forget to take
along at least one pair. Two flannel
nighties Or pajamas and three silk or
cotton ones should be packed. You will
need one pair of house slippers, and it
is ever so nice if you can have an extra
pair that are fleece-lined.
Of course girl can take as many
pieces of lingerie as she wishes, but
the majority of girls prefer to follow
the above outline. When the budget
permits they generally take more than
one house coat and more than one set
of Longing pajamas.
Not a necessity by any means, but
delight to every college girl is one of
the cosmetic carry-all bags. One firm
makes one especially for college girls.
1t was designed last year by girls from
ten leading colleges, and its contents
of creams, lotions, rouges, etc., was
specified by those same girls. It is
called the campus carry-an bag, and it
is little gem coming in several colors
and made of sturdy leather. 1t has
strap handle and is carried swung over
the arm. 1t looks like a popular sized
strap handle purse.

Wrong Addresses Hold Up
Benefit Checks Delivery

Incorrect addresses have resulted in
the non-delivery of more than 1000
benefit checks mailed to unemployed
workers in Minnesota, it is reported by
the state unemployment compensation
division.
However, tedious search by the di-
vision has made possible the re-direction
to correct addresses of nearly 300 of
these checks. A total of more than
$4,000 in benefits is represented by the
re-mailed checks. Many claimants thus
received at one time two or more checks
which had accumulated until their cor
rect addresses were determined.
Failure on the part of claimants to
notify the division, through the Min
nesota State Employment Service, of
changes in address is the principal
cause for undelivered checks, it was
pointed out by Frank T. Starkey, In
dustrial Commissioner in charge. He
stressed the Importance of this notifi-
cation, as well as the necessity of noti-
flying the poStoffice department of
changes.
Checks undelivered because of faulty
addresses remain sin the mail" for
periods of time ranging from few days
to, in isolated cases, few weeks be-
fore they are returned to the division
for corrections.

as Temporary
Inspectors for District.

Frank Kalan and Edward Harri were
appointed as temporary inspectors fol
the Fourth District at meeting of the
County Commissioners last week.
At the meeting the board also
adopted resolution which calls for
all future county contracts to include
a provision requiring contractors to
meet federal, state and municipal safety
laws and building construction codes
Commissioner Veranth also had the
Manitou Park, Lake Vermilion, read
construction project placed on the 1889
budget. The board also authorized the
county auditor to turn over about
$4,000 in county highway funds to the
state highway department to enable
contractors on four roads to receive part
of their money on the secondary road
improvements. The state held up pay
ment because federal aid money will not
be payable until after the completion
of the projects.
Among the roads involved are the
completion of No. 81 from Ely south for
fifteen miles amounting to $32, 795 81,
county cost. This will enable the pay
ment for the surfacing and blacktopping
the road now being completed by I'LL
and Brothers.

as she takes her daily sightseeing tour
through the city.
The cooler months of the year are
working months for Princess for it is
then that she is called upon to make her
appearance at each Birch performance,
where she is hoisted in mid-air, then
disappears at the snap of her masters
fingers.
1t might also be said that Princess is
the only living actress of note who has
never sought publicity. She has never
been known to give an interview to the
newspapers, and has never voluntarily
been quoted or had her photograph
taken. She comes from the Dutch West
Indies, is four years old, and weighs
one hundred and fifty pounds.
But Princess is only one small por-
ton of the great Birch array of thrilling
illusions and demonstrations of the
magic art. Included in the production
are many tricks which require a veri-
table menagerie for presentation. OF
these may be mentioned the canary
that appears in burning light bulb, the
vanishing ducks, the elusive doves and
many others.
Children are always made welcome at
the Birch show. The magician likes
to work with them, and frequently calls
them to the stage.
81 like to play to adults, of course
for they can really appreciate to the
fullest the beauty and wonder of my
illusions, but it is really much more
fun to work with the kiddies. Their
naive enthusiasm and the pure enjoy
ment which they get from the show
is something infinitely precious to me-"
Not only will Mr.. Birch perform the
most sensational feats of magic ever
presented on a local platform, but he
brings program varied with pleasing
novelties Miss Mabel Sperry, musical
artist extraordinary, will play on he1
specially built Worlds Fair Marimba at
each performance.

as those who are youthful in age, dur
ing the engagement at the Community
Center auditorium on Saturday, under
the auspices of Frank Lozar Post of the
American Legion.
Princess is one actress who enjoys
her work and who is never tempera-
mental. She takes life philosophically
and displays little or no vanity. She
likes children and crowd of youngsters

How long is it since you had the
steering mechanism on your car
checked? Is your automobile hard to
steer?
One of number of conditions may
be responsible. The tires may be soft;
the steering gear may need grease; tie
rod bushings may need fabrication.
Many other items should be checked,
but these are some of the most i'm
portant.
If, after checking these possibilities,
you find the difficulty still there, better
consult a mechanic. Very probably
some part of the steering mechanism
on the front axle is bent.

CHAPTER XXXV.
AT AN OUTLAWS MERCY

AL AN outlaws MEhCY
It took Cardowan a surprisingly
short time to rope two Of the
Sturdier horses. He packed the
aparejos on them, then went into
the shed and brought out a saddle.
He roped a chunky Sorrel next,
threw the saddle on him, then
mounted to top him off. The horse
was gentle, and he grunted with
pleasure. There was a long-legged
black watching and waiting in the
corner Of the corral, and now
Cardowan singled him out and put
a loop over him. This was a diff
ferent proposition. The black
fought, but Cardowan went at it
just as he had gone about mas
tering the team.
He snubbed the black to a cor
raj pole, got q hackamore over
his head, then yanked the tieknot
loose, vaulted on his back, and
proceeded to top him off. The
horse fought savagely, plunging
and screaming and pitching, but
Cardowan rode him with that
ruthless quiet determination that
was almost ponderous in its stub
bornneSs.
When the black gave up Car
dowan trotted him over to Kate.
I'm the saddle, We're riding"
He led off through the timber,
still heading south along a cattle
trail. Kate was hungry. but the
thought Of escape was no longer
in her mind. Cardowan had seen
to it that she got a slower horse,
and she suspected that part Of his
exhibition Of riding there in the
corral was to show her how little
chance any attempt at escape
would have with him.
NEAR THE BORDER
When the trail they were travel
ing petered out, Cardowan struck
out blind through the sparse tim
ber that was giving way to the
cedar-stripped sandhills.
Kate was setting down into a
fog Of weariness when Cardowan
pulled up and waited for her.
They were on a low ridge that
sloped down a sandy hillside to
the thread Of railroad track far
below. A line Of telegraph poles
parallelled it. A half mile down
the track a red-painted and scat
folded watertank raised its gaunt
skeleton beside the rails.
Cardowan looked at the sun and
announced: Were in plenty Of
time"
eyes," Kate said, duly.
"You'll like it across the bor-
der" Cardowan continued. as If he
had allowed her time enough to
let the knowledge Of her new life
sink in. "They know me in Mex
leo. There'l be no running from
hideout to hideout down there"
Without waiting for her to re-
ply, he nosed his horse down the
slope.
They pulled up at the water
tank and, while Kate sought its
cool shade, Cardowan removed the
packs from the horses, herded
them together, and drove them
back up the slope. He returned
on foot a few minutes later and
sat down under the tank.
Then he fixed his cool gaze on
Kate, who was sitting Stiffly on
the packs.
"Come here, sister," he drawled
