Form Outlook
Meetings Held

A series of agricultural out
look meetings have been con-
Quoted over Big Horn county
during the past week, under the
direction of George w. Gustaf-
son, county extension agent and
member of the county commit
tee of the Agricultural Conser-
walton Association.
Information regarding the
outlook of exports of agricul-
tural products and estimatec
production to meet the demands
for these products has been dis
cussed at the meetings. The wal
and national defense program
as it effects farming in b.
Horn county has been studied
it was reported.
Regardless of the outcome OF
the war in Europe agri3n'tu
certain to meet with very def
mite changes during the COM
ing year. Export products, es-
pecially wheat, cotton and to-
bacco will no longer be der2o~~
ded on the part of other ma
tons because of the increase in
production of these commoditie
in foreign countries. Producer
of these items will have to make
crop adjustments in 1e41. II
was stated.
The outlook for the DOR oe+ic
consumption of agricultural mo-
ducts is predicted to rise dur'nn
the coming year due 10 tho ",
creased demand caused BY ro'l-
lions of men being put to work
in industries such as munitions
aircraft and other war mater
ials. Commodities expected tc
60 up in consumption are meat
dairy products, poultry. vege-
tables and fruit. It was the con-
census that the outlook for do
mesticallv consumed products is
much brighter than for food
stuffs raised for export.

Child Opens His Heart
Evening Hour Just Before Dark
Is Best Time for Condolences

and he unburdens his heart and is
relieved.
What a child tells in that hour
Of confidence is not to be told again
to anybody. 1t is never to be men,
toned to the child again. 1t is
water gone under the bridge for all
concerned. 1t was and is not. 1t
will leave no trace of evil behind
it unless it is held in the mind of
the listener and brought back to
life again by repetition. admonition
and reproach. Let it go.
Never allow yourself to be shocked
by what a child tells you in con-
fidence. Remember he is alive and
growing and life is not always nice,
not always sweet and pleasant. Ma
ture is crude, rude. fortnight
spirit and her ways at times are
more direct than polite. Children
are her children first, ours after
ward, and we must bow to her on
occasion and that without con-
descension.
At times you will be put to it to
give the child encouragement and
assurance to face the next days
struggle. You grope for feeling, and
for words to advise, comfort and
persuade. Tell him story. One
about yourself when you were like
him, a child in the dark, and it
will do more good than a bookful
of psychology. Tell him story, re-
cite prayer.
Every child should know that a
prayer of faith brings strength; that
every good thought is a prayer in
essence, and every good deed a
prayer in effect. When the soft
darkness falls on the harsh face of
day, and the shadows soften the face
of the earth, listen to the children's
stories, with prayer and patience
and understanding in your heart,
and you will be to them very tower
of strength.

about warm weather that encourages
slips to hang below hemlines, but
they'll do it every time. Check up
on this before you venture out of
your dressing room. There's MOTH
Ing that gives more untidy ap-
pearance, and usually it's an un-
known fact to the guilty party. Sar-
torial sabotage, as it were. Be sure
that stocking seams are straight,
too, and do wear hose unless you're
so deeply tanned that it's impossible
to tell the difference. Fuzzy legs
are not in order, either, what with
sheer summer stockings divulging
the worst.
Don't wear frills and flying stream
erS in this weather, both for your
sake and the well-being of others.
One of the men in this organiZa-
ton came in the other day froth-
ing with rage over the thoughtleSs-
ness of young lady who sat in
front of him on the bus. She had a
flowing veil thrown back over her
hat and our innocent victim alter
mated between having it spread out
over the magazine he was trying
to read and getting mouthfuls Of
veil every time a breeze stirred.
Besides all these dangling stream
ers and wells make you look dis
arranged and warmer than ever.
Around the house you have our
blessing if you want to wear shorts
and moccasins, provided they're
good looking and freshly cleaned.
However, take it easy on your fit
ting around. Don't go leaping into
the car for a quick jaunt to the
grocery store until you put on a
skirt Privacy is, in the words of
the master, privacy!
And, finally, here's hint if things
get too desperate. Friends of ours
with secluded shady spot in the
yard tell us that they take chairs
there, arm themselves with books
and lemonade and turn the garden
sprinkler on just tiny bit. Then
they dabble bare feet in the ice
cold water. Works wonders and
beats anything but shower. Even
so, you can't read in a shower!

Here is the ever-popular Shirt
waist dress carefully designed for
sizes "a to 48. The detailing OF the
shoulder yokes with the darts below
and the darts just above the waist
line give trim fit through the
shoulders and proper fullness
through the bust. The paneled
skirt maintains a smooth line
through the hips and is fiat across
the back. The simple closing, from
collar to hem, gives the long line
which is slenderizing and also per-
mits an attractive and useful deco
ration in the row of buttons which
may be matched with a belt buckle.
Pattern No. 1420-B is one you'll
enjoy making and you'll wear the
frock with great pride.
This classic style may be made as
a spectator sports frock in plaid,
striped or checked woods, gabardine,
rayon or cotton crepes. Make it up
in plain dark colors as a frock to
wear straight through the fall and
winter seasons.
