BLACK AND TAN "A GOOD BET

 Hollywood, Jan. 2o.-When you can't get close enough to the rail to watch your horse lose g, you can have a lot of fun looking at mink coats. There must have been 5000 of them at the Santa Anita track Saturday. I wished had one, too, along about the sixth race when it began to get cold. Before then would have settled for RoSalind Russell'S luggage-tan wool jacket, trimmed in suede. Her hat was an enormous black pirate one, with a flared wide brim and draped crown.
 Hats, generally, were small and high-crowned, or made high by bows and flowers. Jane Collyer (Mrs. Stuart Erwin) wore a small sailor of rose-red velvet with a big back bow, and matched it with ruby clip at the neck of her black crepe frock-one of the new tied-ir- front, string-belt models.
 LUGGAGE
 TAN, AGAIN
 Andrea Leeds (Mrs. Bob Howard) had accenting jewelry, too--a gold and carnelian clip that picked up the two colors of her crepe harem- hem frock. It's full-length front panel of luggage tan was draped, belted with dark brown suede studded in gold. Nice bag, too huge chocolate leather one, Shirred and gathered-and a visored pill box draped in the same tan fabric as the dress panel.
 Fanny Brice, leaning over the balcony rail and hollering her head of, had black pearl button ear rings to match her dark gray wool jersey dress, double-breaSted and with four huge rhinestone buttons. With her dark mink coat, she wore a dark ha of duvetyn draped in crepe.
 Virginia Bruce, at a late lunch at one of the clubhouse balcony tables, posed in a pert black felt visored pillbox topped with a big hower-bow of cerise velvet that ex- actly matched her crepe frock, trim med in pleated ruffles of self-mate- rial

PINE COUNTY RURAL
SCHOOL NEWS
County Fair School Exhibits.
A. E. GUSTAFSON. County Supt.

Not much material has been turned
in for our 1910 county fair rural
schools exhibits. This year there is
much less than in 1899. Last year
was much less than in previous years.
The rural exhibits booths in our
county fair building are now refined
and in excellent condition.
This drop in interest in school
exhibits the past two years has no
doubt been due to three major rea-
sons:
Cd Lack of interest and time among
most rural teachers.
(2) Reduction in prize money ap-
propriated for this purpose by the
fair board. 1t has dropped to about
one-third the original amount.
90 Lack of space two years ago
and three years ago made it impossible
for us to exhibit anything except the
prize winning articles. The judging
each year is done in the court room
the day before the first day of the
fair. In 1887 and 1888 there was
space enough for only the prize Win
ming articles.
New Space for Exhibits.
Now the new conservation building
has been completed with sufficient
space to take care of the splendid
and growing All Club exhibits. The
old Pine City tWo-room schoolhouse
has also been moved to the fair
grounds for certain other departments
and exhibits. So some of these de-
partments have been moved out of
the school exhibits building and we
now have plenty of room for our
school exhibits.
If we can get the same old financial
support and teacher cooperation, the
school exhibits should grow in quality
and quantity in 1941. We should have
more money for prizes and more in
terest among rural teachers in this
industrial and extra-curricular work
that aims to supplement the regular
class room work.
We now have excellent facilities
for exhibiting this line of work.
Let US increase and improve the eX-
hibit
State Fair Booths.
In 1885, 1886, 1887 and 1888 we also
exhibited a Pine county school ex-
hibits booth at the state fair. Last
year we discontinued this because
of the drop in this material turned in
to us and also because of conflict
between our county fair dates and
the dates for entering the exhibit at
the state fair. We doubt very MUCH
that we can have Pine county rural
school exhibit there at the state fair
this year.
The preparation of rural school
exhibits for the county and state fair
is very worthwhile extra-curricular
and industrial arts work that cor
relates well with regular school work.
More teachers should encourage it.
