ELLIS McCRADY
Fashion Editor OF
THE
MINNEAPOLIS JOURNAL

| Minneapolis, Mar 10-Speaking ma
terial wise-the season is treat for any
woman. Fabrics have decided interest
and play an important part in the
fashion rightness of all costumes.
Sturdy tweeds in beautiful mixtures
are among the leaders on the sports
field. Our old friend-oiret twill whom
We all know is beautiful but stands a
lot of punishment, is smartest of smart
for that tailored suit in navy blue or
black. Hopsacking, another sturdy and
not easily wrinkled fabric is a season
favorite. Alpaca too, is among the pace
setting fabrics. It IS truly going to be
! a season Of durable but handsome ma
terialS.
Though knitS are really not fabrics
they have an important place in the
fashion picture. Knit blouSes and
sweaters have Zoomed to new fashion
heights this year. Wear a handknit
sweater with a matching silk or wool
skirt and be the picture of style. Speak
ing of knits there is an amusing story
going round about movie actress Carole
Lands. 1t seems Carole had a knit
sweater of which she was particularly
fond. In fact she couldn't bear to give
it up, though she had worn it much
longer than stars are apt to wear
things. So what did Carole do but I'M
ravel the sweater and have it reknit into
swim suit.
And that calls for another fabric
story.
This one is about Betty Furness and
a table cloth. Betty purchased a 52x52
plaid table cloth and then decided it
was the lovliest dress material she had
ever seen. So what did Betty do but
have the luncheon cloth made into a
dirndl dress. She even utilized the six
napkins that came with the cloth.
Four she had hemstitched together to
make big kerchief to wear peasant
style on her head and the other two
napkins she had made into handbag.
Doesn't that make you wonder if you
have all kinds of dresses around your
house and don't know it
You know dress doesn't have to be
of one fabric in one costume And what
more-everyone seems to have gotten
together on colors so you can perfectly
match different fabrics. Another fash
ionable note is struck by matching in
half-tone rather than exactly.
The velvet people are working on a
new fabric that promises to be prac-
tical as well as lovely in appearance.
When it gets on the market I think YOU
will welcome it. It is velvet made of
wool. In other words-the wool is
woven on velvet looms with handsome
results. I have seen sample piece
and I am interested in watching it's de-
velopment as am sure you will be-
1t should be a wonderful suit fabric

CAMP 704
half Way Camp)

Enrollee Raymond StanowSki will
soon have completed his fifth year of
service in the CCC organization. An
article in a recent issue of Happy
Days" on the length of service of a
Connecticut enrollee brought to atten-
ton the fact that 704 has a veteran who
has been with the company since its
beginning. He was enrolled at Fort
Smelling on April q, 1888 at which time
the company had just been organized.
He has been with us from the early
stages of tent camp to its present form.
Lieutenant S. w. Arends recently be-
came chaplain for the camps of the
Superior National Forest. He replaced
Lieutenant Normoyle, now at Fort
Smelling headquarters, supervising the
Catholic church activities in the camps
Of the Minnesota district.
Lieutenant Harold H. Thompson,
junior officer of Camp 704, was united
in marriage to Miss Alice A. Wylie at
Winside, Nebraska. The bride was en-
ployed as principal of the high school
at Cairo, Neb., up to the time of her
marriage. The happy couple are making
their home at the King residence on
Chapman street, Ely.

CAMP I'll

The sleighs for the hauling Of the
bridge timbers and the pulpwood which
has been salvaged from the jackpine
thinning experiment have been built
The bridge material will be used in re-
placing timbers in the bridges on the
Ely -Buyck road. A tractor will be used
to haul the material to the road and
later the timbers will be distributed and
piled near the bridges to be strength
ened.
Greer insists on getting into the
news-weeks on end. His latest feat is
agreeing to take fellows K p for a
dollar and two minutes later succeeds
in getting a rookie to offer him $1.50
for the same K. P.
The Boy Scouts wrestling team Of Ely
is DESTROYS of securing matches in the
different weight divisions with other
teams. We have received a challenge
but inasmuch as I'll has no regular team
as yet, the challenge could not be ac-
cepted. Just as soon as enough men
turn out to fill the berths on our team
we expect to go into action with neigh
boring teams.
Four stars go to Limo Garcia Manuel,
specialist, and lone Filirino enrollee, for
coping the camp spelling title. Look
ing a little deeper we find him active
in photography, tipping, leathercraft,
baking, barbering and cooking. He also
swings a wicked paddle in ping pong.
After lapse of several weeks, during
which a case of emergency at other
camps neceSSitated our Doc. being away
from camp, the first aid class is again
a feature. Lesson 8, Injuries from
Heat and Cold" was the discussion at a
recent meeting of the group.
The very much needed 110-volt light
plant system is at last being installed
The Leroy engines for the plant will
need concrete floor. If everything
goes as planned, the new plant should
be operating by the middle Of March.

Gun Barrel ErpIodes
Hits School Janitor.

Braham-While attempting to fix
over an old gun which had not been
in use for several years, Robert Falk of
Grasston, janitor of the Grasston con-
solidated schools, was seriously injured
when in some manner the barrel of the
gun exploded, tearing the flesh from
the palm of his left hand, his wrist and
forearm. The accident occurred in the
furnace room Of the school. Mr.. Falk
was burning off the stock of the gun
preparatory to making an article for
use at the school, when, for no ex-
plainable reason, the barrel exploded
resulting in rather severe injury. The
accident necessitated Mr.. Falk's being
taken to University hospital in Mime
apolis for treatment.

Easy Winter LOUers
SnOIU Removal Costs.

Nature, the earlier part of this
winter, has been kind to the taxpayers
pocketbooks by withholding the fierce
storms that tore across Minnesota a
year ago and caused the Minnesota
Highway departments snow removal
fleet to burn up dollars to keep the
trunk roads clear.
In November, December and January,
this winter, snow removal costs totaled
1921, O18.02, the highway departments
books revealed, as against 1927 ,460.70
for the same months last winter.
One storm in April last year alone
cost the departments maintenance d.
vision $191 1881 in snow removal costs
AN occurrance which, the highway de-
partment fervently hopes, may not be
repeated for another 20 years.

Roast Chicken!
100 Birds Burn.

Detroit Lakes-Nearly 100 chickens
were burned to death and approx
mately 500 loss was caused when
fire destroyed the poultry building of
w. c. Stephen. The fire, discovered at
4:30 one morning, left only one wall
OF the poultry barn standing. After
the blaze was extinguished by the fire
department, the scared bodies of a 100
odd chickens could be seen littering the
Water-drenched ashes. Nearby build
ings were sprayed by the fire fighters
to prevent the blaze from spreading.
The fire, believed to have been started
by a stove used to heat the poultry
building. resulted in a substantial loss
to MIR. Stephen who was just getting
started in the poultry business.

termine the depth and bottom type of
the lake for the purpose of determining
what species of fish can best be planted
Timber type is also noted in the interest
of wild life conservation. The greatest
depth found so far was fifty-one feet

1t appears, had never seen the place he
bought through an advertisement in the
local paper brought the long distance
deal in a rather peculiar way. Mr..
Orsen, the purchaser, has a brother-in-
law, Oscar H. Hanson, farming in Fari-
bault county. Last summer Mr.. Han
sons son had work in Faimont and
while here was a casual reader of the
paper. He noticed this farm for sale
advertisement, and knowing his uncle
was looking for place in this section,
correspondence followed. Last week
Mr.. Hanson, acting for Mr.. Orsen in
Canada, closed the deal, the papers
were signed, the money paid over.

killing he does is not an accident-it is

That's pretty tough, but stop and

fifty or sixty miles an hour governed
only by man whose judgment is
blurred and practically obliterated by

Slave Labor Once Used

The early development Of the
Cuban sugar industry was accom-
plished with slave labor, which ex-
planned the establishment of many
small mills with relatively slow
progress in the adoption of mechan-

manual labor. There was no change
until 1872, when the movement for
emancipation of Cuban slaves be-
gan. The complete abolition of
slavery was recorded in 1880.
