south creek road, with the harvest
and other farm work.
Night providers are getting more,
numerous in this section. On
Thursday night Of last week r. II.
Ray was awakened shortly after
midnight by footsteps in the adjoin-
ing room. He got up and secured
his gun, and slipped cautiously to-
ward the room where he had heard
someone walking, but they had evil
IDENTIFY heard him and made their es-
cape.
On last Sunday morning about
three O'Clock, thieves entered a
chicken house on the VIM Barnes
farm, on the east side. The chicken
house is located close to corn
field, which made a good shield to
enter the place without being seen
from the residence. The family was
awakened by the squaking of the
chickens, and Mr. Barnes and his
son-in-law, Everett Roberts, seized
their guns and hastened to the
scene. The thieves probably had
heard them approaching, as they
could be plainly heard making their
escape through the corn toward the
creek. The farmers here are swear
ing vengeance against this kind of
work, and we predict somebody is
going to get load of shot if this
night prowling is not stopped at
once.

At near the same hour early Sum-
day morning that the VIM. Barnes
poultry house was entered, the
family was awakened
by providers about the store and res
idence, near the gas tank. It is
thought they were trying to secure

New Frozen Dessert
Of Pastel Green

How would you like to make
naturally colored pastel green ice
cream at home, using the old-fash-
Toned freezer, that will make the
local chefs look to their laurels?
The accompanying avocado pear
pistachio ice cream is a simple
recipe. Even without the pistachio
nuts there's a cool atmosphere of
sophistication both in color and the
extra velvety texture of the dish.
Avocado fruit oil has way of en-
dowing all frozen desserts in which
it is incorporated. with an I'M
matched smoothness of texture, due
to its complete homogenity. A slight
ly less milk-thinned mixture will
freeze in the tray of your refriger-
ator if you are not able to buy, beg
or borrow an old-fashioned hand
turned freezer. Keep the amount of
sugar slightly less than that for
other fruit ice creams. Contrast
avocado PURGE with grated lemon or
orange rind, or small amounts of
the juice or crushed form of any
of the acid fruits.

Counterfeit
Damages
Hair
Dryness OF. Faded
Color Are Two
Complaints
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

This is a good time to think Of
your hair beauty. Now that the
new season is settling upon US. we
must take precautions to counterfeit
the damage Of sun, salt water and
neglect which our heads experienced
during the summer days.
The most common complaint Is
dryness, and a runnerup is a loud
wall about faded tresses. MY hair
hasn't the color it used to have" ~
can't make my wave stay in MY
ends are brittle" MY new perma-
nent wave is total loss" Women
the land over are disappointed with
their heads and expect beauty edi-
tors to give them a miraculous treat
ment which will restore beauty at
once!
Finger massage of the scalp and
daily brushing of the hair are two
cardinal rules for hair beauty.
Every single day you must take a
few moments to manipulate your
scalp with finger tips-loosening it
so 1t will slide over your skull easily.
A tense scalp restricts normal hair
nourishment, SO keep yours eased.
Just brushing your hair in any
old way with any old brush isn't
going to restore much of its lost
beauty. You must brush with a
good brush which has long, gradu-
ated bristles, and use the wrist flip.
starting close to the scalp and
brushing outward and upward to
the full length Of the hair. A good
way to know you are brushing cor
rectly Is to bend over at the waist
and let your head hang downward
Then brush rhythmically, at least
100 times, separating the hair in
chunks so no part of it will be neg
lected. Every so often wipe your
brush on hand towel to take the
dust and oil from it. Such a polish
ing and stimulation will do more for
your hair than almost any product
you may buy.
If the weather is not too hot, or
If where you live is not too dusty,
do not shampoo more frequently
than every two weeks. Some girls
find it necessary to. their comfort
to shampoo every 10 days, which
is all right, providing your hair is
not too dry. The daily brushing
keeps the hair clean and you may
cleanse your scalp two or three times
week with a bit of absorbent cot
ton moistened with special dry hair
tonic.
The night before you shampoo.
massage your scalp we'll with heated
pure olive oil, or with half olive oil
and half odorless castor oil. If you
shampoo your own hair at home wet
it thoroughly with cold water before
shaking on the shampoo. This cold
soaping helps to strip the oil from
the hair. The second soaping should
be with very warm water mot hot)
and your rinsing must be thorough.

OUNCE SWEETMEATS.
Wash the ounces and steam them
until they can be pierced to the core
with a straw; leave them to cool. II
to be preserved whole, core them be-
fore pairing; otherwise, pare smooth
ly, then cut into fourths or eighths.
To every pound of fruit allow one
pound of sugar made into sirup
with half a pint of boiling water;
boil and skim the strip, then slide
in the fruit, cover the kettle and boil
for 10 minutes; remove the cover
and if not clear let stand for a few
moments, then put them in sterlllzed
jars and close at once.

them into cold water. Cover the
skins with boiling water and cook
them rapidly for half an hour.

Bath Towel Rule

Good things may come in small
packages. but that isn't true Of bath
towels. The bigger the better is the
rule, as far as they are concerned.
1t feels marvelously luxurious to
step out of the bathtub and wrap
yourself completely in the folds Of a
clean spongy bath towel. but there
are other practical reasons for choos-
ing the larger ones. Small Turkish
towels are meant to be used for
drying the hands and face rather
than the entire body and are there
fore likely to be thinner and less
absorbent. In this case size and
quality 90 hand In hand, 1t seems.
Fresh clean towels, add so much
to the pleasure Of washing up and
bathing that the bathroom supplies
should be frequently changed
whether or not they appear to be
Soiled, AS Turkish towels do not
need to be ironed it is easy to keep

Because this is a mans world
wherein the masculine sex gets most
of the breaks, and because women
have to play second fiddle in 1t and
are weighted down by various and
sundry physical mental, moral,
social and conventional handicaps,
women are envious of men and
would like to change places with
them if they could.
Indeed, so dissatisfied are many
women with the sex that has been
wished upon them at birth that
they attempt the impossible task OF
making imitation men OF them
selves; but no man ever wants to
be q woman, or to be mistaken for
one. On the contrary, to be called
sissy" is the fighting word with
him and OIL the vaudeville stage
he never assumes the role of the
female impersonator. Many women
parade the streets in breeches. but
you will never meet a man diked out
in decollete ball gown.
However, without wishing to swap
Jobs with women, one young man
who takes a broad and philosophic
view Of the subject points out to
women several things in which they
have the edge on men and tells
them what he would do if he were
a woman. He begins with the mat
ter Of looks, and says:
Being a man, have to be even
as God made me, for there is very
little man can do to improve his
looks, but woman can make her
self over to her hearts desire. She
can change the color of her hair
to whatever shade Is most becoming.
She can buy a drugstore complex
ion that beats anything that nature
ever turned out, and she can be
plump and cuddly, or thin and
willowy, as she prefers.
and I'd have clothes to help me
a blessing denied me as a man. We
men, poor things, must wear dull,
uninteresting, tubular garments that
do nothing to enhance our appear
ance, but women can camouf1age
their bad points and bring out their
good points by wearing gay colors
and lovely fabrics. No well-dressed
woman is ever homely.
"If I were a girl and wanted to
marry, would go back to the
original tactics that women used in
the. days when there were no old
maids. I would stress my femi-
ninity because, after all, men don't
fall in love with other men or want
to marry them. I would cut out
the sophisticated and hard-boiled
pose of the modern girl and be sweet
and gentle, and I would never, never
know quite so much as the man
I was with, or beat him at his own
game. And I would never be a
copy-cat of other girls. I would
have that something different about
me that would make man notice
me and start him wondering about
me.
And I would thank my heavenly
stars that, being q woman, I could
enjoy dates at no cost. It certainly

reduces the cost Of the item In this
kit to almost one-halt-and It's q
grand idea for school-bound young
sters.
Manicure Kit Very
Well Equipped.
One thing is certain: College
girls don't want to be burdened
with too many items when they re-
turn to school, yet they demand all
the necessities In compact and con-
venient form. Instead Of carrying
loose bottles Of polish, remover and
a number Of manicure implements,
they like q complete kit-but it
must be smart and not demand
too much space. The perfect an
swer to these requirements is found
in one of the loveliest manicure
kits we've seen In q long while.
Especially nice is the fact that It
has been designed for college girl
and is the perfect going-away gift
for which you've been searching.
The case is of bright red or tan
"pigtex" grain leather, no bigger
than a good sized bar Of bath soap.
1t is oval in shape and fastened with
a upper. Inside are all the essen
tials for a complete manicure
polish, polish base. remover, file,
pusher, orangewood stick, emery
boards, cotton, and even eyebrow
tWeezers The manicure implements
are fitted into a little compartment
that snaps on, so you may remove
it when in use. The whole package
is perfectly and carefully designed
to give the most efficiency with the
least amount of waste space. In
cidentally, we wouldn't be too sur
prised if the stay-at-home adopted
it as we'll.
Special Treatment
For Reconditioning.
However, with all this talk Of
beauty aids for the college girl
it's only fair to suggest a pro-
cedure for girls and women who
are staying in town. (Of course
If any college girl wants to adept
this, we don't mind 9 bit). 1t
