square neckline dipped in the
front to make it more becoming.
The frills at the neckline, sleeve
edges and foot of the skirt, make
this dress very feminine and flow
er-like. And it's so easy! The
dress itself practically puts itself
together, and the frills can be
sewn in, in no time! Linen, voile,
silk print organdy or flat crepe
are pretty materials for this.

There was incredulity in his eyes.

She buried her face in her hands.
But he could see the head shaking
in shamed negation and he smiled
again. "All right. That's better.

and surrendering for any misinter-

SIS that plain enough?" she cried,
with a kind of desperate triumph.
Are you going to send me away
from you-after that?"
"Yes." 1t was as if it had been
wrung out Of him by torture.
She loosed him, but one hand still
clung. 'All right" she said in
voice of calm resolve. I'm not
afraid any more. Get Chunk out.

She obeyed. SIS everything in?"
she asked. going forward as if to
inspect the canoe. There was nev-
er chance for him to stop her, so
swift and violent was her next mo-
ton. Under the impetus of the sud-
den tilt and thrust, the little craft
shot out into the darkness and van
ished. "There!" she gasped. What
about that?"
"Oh, you fool!" he groaned. "You
deadly little fool"
She came to him. Don't waste

Something of her reckless aban-
don passed into him. He laughed.

Chunk rolled his head and mum

utterance.

Jumping to her feet she caught
her companion by the wrist and
conveyed him along the hall, down

d ECENTLY returned from
IN Sweden, a man who has
been connected with the mo-
ton picture business for some
twenty-five years made a
first-hand report to this col
umn on the subject of Greta
Garbo in her homeland.
Her countrymen, he said,
aren't tremendously i'm
pressed by her success. They
like her pictures, go in droves
to see them, but they feel that Of
course she ought to be success
just a case of town girl max

They are inclined to resent her
aloofness-they feel that she ought
to realize that they wouldn't dream
Of intruding on her privacy, and that
she doesn't have to treat them as
she does the movie fans of other
countries.
He had several photographs Of
her, taken in the days when she was
hat model. They were sweet,
rather simpery, giving no hint Of
what she was to become.

Be Careful Where You
Shoot

There are large number of CCC
Camps located in Maryland and the
young men of these camps have
done excellent work for our State
not only for forestry but for Wild
life and for the prevention Of ero-
sion and need your cooperation.
Therefore, we appeal to you at
this time to be careful, il you do
go hunting, not to shoot toward a
CCC Camp or in the vicinity where
men are working. In fact, there
should not be any hunting done
within " mile of any CCC Camp or
where men are at work either on
the road or in the forest, and we
request your cooperation in prevent
ing the injury of anyone through
negligence on your part.
Look before shooting. BY cooper
ating in this manner you may save
a life which is more valuable than
any species of game you may miss
or probably kill.
The Superintendents of all CCC
Camps have received orders from
Mr.. Robert Fechner, Director, Civil
ian Conservation Corps, to post
warning signs about N miles in all
directions surrounding said camps
and where men are working and we
request your cooperation in pro-
hibiting hunting within said area.
Also, we request your cooperation
in preventing the "red menace
(FIRE) from destroying our forest
areas. Do not drop matches or
empty your pipe or throw lighted
cigar or cigarette on the ground
Hess you put your FOO
on same and are sure the fire
is out and no danger can arise from
your action before leaving the spot.
Your cooperation will prevent SER
ious forest fires and save not only
wildlife, but covers and food on
which wildlife must depend, and
also save valuable timber areas
which are very essential to our
State.

FALLING LEAVES CAUSE MOTOR
ACCIDENTS

Hazardous road conditions due to
falling leaves are responsible for
many accidents in October and early
November, the Keystone Automobile
Club warns in bulletin urging mo-
florists to take proper precautions in
wet weather.
Wet leaves, it is pointed out,
make highways extremely treacher-
Gus. Motorists should not attempt
quick stops on roads covered with
soggy foliage, because of the skid
ding danger.
Another factor to be considered in
driving at this time of year is early
darkness. October Is considered the
worst month for early-evening &C
cidents, the combination of dusk,
darkness and fatigue contributing to
the accident toll.

THE THREE RS OF MOUTH
HEALTH

Children brought up according to
the three RS of mouth health, have
a good chance to escape the discom-
forts and accompanying ill-health
that comes from dental disorders,
according to DR.. Richard c. Leon
ard, Chief of the Division of Oral
Hygiene of the Maryland State De-
partment of Health.
"This season of the year, when
the children are getting adjusted to
school routine, is particularly ap-
propriate time" DR.. Leonard said,
''to give special thought to the
physical as well as the mental
aspects of a child's development.
The child who is physically fit
makes much better progress in
school, than does the boy or girl
who is below par. Parents can help
to keep their children fit by care
fully following the rules of mouth
health in bringing up the children.
"The three RS" he continued, OF
course, are not Reading, Riting and
Rithmetic. But are Right foods;
Real cleansing and Regular office
visits, which are as important to
mouth health as the old three RS
to mental development.
