store gasoline inside any farm
building. They point out that
the vapors from gasoline are
heavier than air and tend to
form first along the floor, so a
room may contain considerable
gasoline vapor and a flame or
a spark may cause an explosion
before a person even notices the
vapor. Another safety precau-
ton where gasoline and kero-
sene are kept in small cans is to
keep the gasoline in a can
painted red and the kerosene in
one painted green. Thus iden-
titled, the fuels will not be so
apt to be used for the wrong

excellent crop for both the dry

says Ralph D.. Mercer, extension

out that successful corn grow

use of varieties adapted to the
short growing seasons in the

Catholics Observe Feast Days

While the rest of the Greenbelters have observed

is the "Feast of the Nativity of Our Lordn while
New Years Day is the "Feast Of the Circumcision Of

made by hearing Mass which celebrated in the
theater each occasion.
In the Old Lw, by the rite of Circunci 81 every

and blessings Of the Chosen People by God. A Jew
who failed to be initiated by the ceremony was ex

absolutely sinless, and therefore did adop
tion into the number Of Gods children. Yet He sub
mitted to the Law. The Church also honors on this
day the holy name of Jesus given to the Holy Child
at the Circumcision.
Saturday, January 6, is the "Feast of the Epi-
phany". On this day is observed the visit to the
Epiphany, Little Christmas, that gifts are ex-
changed instead of Christmas Day. Santa Claus
does not exist in these countries the leg
end is that the Eve Of Epiphany the Magi to
little boys and girls, and leave then beautiful
gifts just as Santa Claus does to Christmas.
The children leave hay and grass the camels to

Sunday, January 2, is the nFeast of the Holy Fam

for all Christian households. The Feast was approv-

soccer the event graced by the pres

At that highly significant event, the
semi-annual fashion show presented
recently by the Style Creators of

emphasized in group of fashions
for college-faring girls. The illus

hosts of stunning fall and winter
models that received the applause
of an enthusiastic audience. {
Looking at the fetching costume

pictured, one readily understands at
glance the treason why" a ire
mendous velveteen vogue is spread
ing throughout all fashiondom this
season. In the life of the college
girl especially, velveteen is going to
play stellar role. She will look
sweet and lovely indeed in a cos
tune suit of this type which is fash
Toned by a leading style creator of
wine colored velveteen for the coat
with white saddle stitching around
the buttonholes, and the smart pouch
pockets are shirred. The dress is
crepe in the same color. Note the
very smart pompadour bonnet.
The grand and the practical and
the economical part of this long-coat
ensemble is that the coat itself is
valuable asset in any girls ward
robe. 1t not only partners perfectly
with the crepe dress but can be worn
as wrap with ones party gowns.
For afternoon affairs with more or
less formal gowns it will be looked
upon admiringly and will be COW
