and that they did not know many of
the fundamentals and basic steps in
sewing, such as stitching darts, bast-
ing diagonally, tailors tacks and put
ting in zippers.
"It was for this reason that the
Rosebud county homemakers asked
Miss Hilyard to conduct a beginners
sewing school for four days last
August. Twelve groups with two
members each attended. 1t meant
getting up early to prepare meals
for the family for the day. The
meetings were from 10 o'clock until
4 o'clock.
'"The choice of patterns was linn
tied to four dresses and one apron,
in order that there would not be too
many complicated problems arising.
This was, after all, a beginners
workshop and there would be many
in our own clubs who did not know
how to sew. Surprisingly, even
those of us who have had years of
experience in sewing required the
full four days to complete our gar
ments. This was due to all the fit
ting problems involved, the sugges-
tons for time saving and calling to
our attention all the unnecessary
steps that can be eliminated"
There is a definite increase in
home sewing the yard goods and
pattern departments report. And
even the novice is intrigued by the
lovely materials which are back
again.-AMY MARTIN.

An Editorial
What Is Poetry!

A little girl defined IT as a ora
"A position where every line be-
gins with a capital letter" She was
partly right and showed a more than
casual observation of the form of
the poems in her favorite book.
Others think of it as neat little
groups of words rhyming at the end
of each line.
The dictionary defines poetry as
inventive or imaginative writing"
and goes ON to say that there are
many kinds of poetry just as there
are kinds of music or painting. There
is the epic, the ode, the lyric, the
e1egy, the ballad, the song and the
quatrain.
Poetry differs from prose in that
1T has a cadence or rhythm, a beat
or meter which may be measured.
That cadence is a natural expression.
Nature is full of rhythmic sounds
"the recurring surge of the ocean
with an accented third wave greater
than the other two," the clink-a-
clank of the woodlands axe, the
monotonous moan of the wind, the
frogs in the marsh, the rain on the
roof.
The earliest poetry were the epics
lengthy narratives. Few write
epics now and probably fewer read
them, except in college English
classes. AS a matter of fact, the
longer the poem the less chance it
has to be read or appreciated Or
published. 1t is like the speaker who
discloses on and on.
Poetry embodies much and poets
enjoy finding words to carry their
feelings to others. We wonder il
Carlyle was not right in saying
that every fine poem was a kind Of
biography. One cannot read a poem
without feeling that he has caught
glimpse of the soul of the one who
wrote it.
This is the season of the yea
when ones mind turns to sewing
Spring and summer ahead-shut il
during the cold, stormy weeks-it
the perfect time to get the sprinI
sewing done.
The extension service through it
clothing specialists has conducte
several workshops for maxim
dresses and tailoring. At the work
shop held last November in Hi
county 10 garments were mad
which are to be shown in a styl
revue.
What these workshops are is Sc
forth in a letter from Mrs. Osce
Eastman of the Colstrip Home
makers club in Rosebud count,
Says she, "a year ago a tailorin
school was conducted in the count
by Miss Lora Hilyard, state clothin
specialist. Although most of tt
ladies had sewed for years, the

Beauty Treatment
By JESSIE L. PERRO, Missoula County

the most Of the afternoon as I select
the main pieces then carefully
match them with prints or plains.
Price, quality, suitability and dur
ability have all been carefully
thought about and decided upon.
Suit Temperament
The sewing brings great pleasure
too. Use your imagination to create
the lines which suit your tempera-
ment, figure and comfort. l name
temperament first because if you
like a dress it grows old gracefully;
it never has that look of being
. donned as a last resort.
Second comes figure. 1t must do
something good" for your figure
make a nice figure nicer or a not
so-nice one into a very-nice-one. 1t
can be done, too, if you'll just be
careful in selecting the pattern to
use and the material for the pat
tern.
Third, comes comfort. / think
nothing spoils ones appearance so
much as an uncomfortable dress. 1t
brings a look of strain and irritation
to an otherwise happy face. Wrinkles
are sure to appear and also that
never-wanted tired look. So be very
sure your dresses are comfortable.
Plaids, prints and plains-all lend
themselves nicely to the completion
of pretty dresses. The addition of
accessories of plain material to
prints or vice versa gives you such
a countless number of ideas to work
oat to suit your taste.
Many From One
One of my best-hked dresses Is
made of a gay print. Several colors
predominant, and to make q lot of
different dresses of it. I have made
gayly ruffled bib-jabots, wide,
flared peplums, peplums with sus-
pender straps and plain and crushed
wide belts Of several predominant
ing plains.
That one plainly made print has
been worn to look like 10 different
dresses. I also made aprons IN wide
belts. Big pockets On belts and NIT
pot-holders on belts. The mits fast
ened to the belts by narrow elastic
so that they are always hanging
handy and need not be unfastened
to use.
Be careful about style. The fussy
ruffled dress may look cute and
doll-like for a while, but after q
few washings you will wish that il
was much easier to whisk on ant
off the ironing board. You'll soon bt
wishing that you didn't have to iror
it. You'll hang it in the back of the
closet and use that ironing time put
tering with the plants you set or
yesterday. Nothing looks so horrie
as a slightly wrinkled and droop,
ruffled dress, unless it is the per.
son uncomfortably wearing it.
Two-Piecers
Two-piecers are going to be
must too. You can whisk off
slightly soiled skirt of print, whisl
into a plain one, and there you hav
a contrasting dress, or other wa.
around.
I find my skirts get soiled NOR
quickly than my blouses do, so
make two-piecers and wear Their

CLOTHES come first for the
~ beauty treatment. Get a nice,
new wardrobe ready. Then see just
how fast the job of housekeeping
goes-that is, if you have promised
yourself that not one new stitch
will you wear until the whole house
shines.
What a wonderful feeling it will
be to get up some morning and don
one of those gay new Bingham or
print dresses you have finished and
hung IN the closet waiting for this
day.
First, though, comes that ever
troubling question, What can I do
on a slim budget?" Right here l al
ways gather up all of the things I
have and sort them thoroughly. Use
ables go into one pile and the ones
I know I can't use I put aside, some
into the rug bag, some into the box
that goes to the fused clothes
tables at the crippled children's
sale.
Add New Touch
Gay new belts, collar and cuff sets
and so on add a new touch to some
of the best house dresses. To
lengthen them I add a wide girdle-
effect of plain to the prints and
prints to the plains. Little aprons
on wide belts are also made to
match, and the old dress soon takes
on that New Look"
Now comes the part 1 like the
best. 1 visit my favorite pattern de-
partment and, with certain ideas in
mind as to what I want, soon finish
there and on my way to the counter
for the materials.
Gay prints keep me enthralled fo4

Peter f Causey
Local Merchant Prince"
Later Became Gov.
Of Delaware;. Was
Noted For Impartiality

Few people have contributed
more to the business life and ex-
pansion Of Milford than Peter 4.
Causey. Mr.. Causey was born near
Bridgville in Sussex County in 1901
the son Of Peter F. and Tamzey
Causey.
Mr.. Causey seems to have been
one Of those men born with a Gle
yer, acute merchant mind. His edu-
cation was completed by the time
he was years old, and he began a
brilliant and prosperous career in
the mercantile business on the site
of the present First National Bank,
the name from 1917, the time of his
fathers death, being Peter F. eau
sey and Son."
The goods sold in their store
was purchased in Philadelphia and
New York by young Causey, and
the fact that he was able to make
Sudicious purchases at such an ear
ly age argues well for his business
ability. His trips to New York were
made by Stage, then taking nearly
week from Milford. The goods
were shipped here in vessels.
In 1925, Mr.. Causey began busin-
ess alone, operating a general store
and buying and selling grain, wood
and lime. His establishment was
center of interest to a large por-
ton of both counties. About 1920.

Ore, which before the later discov-
cry of larger iron deposits, was a
profitable industry. His diggings
were in Nanticoke Hundred, and he
shipped the ore in his own vessels
to Philadelphia.
Near Milford he made permanent
investments in real estate and in
dustrial properties. He purchased
two sawmills, a tannery, the Haven
Flour Mills, the Milford Mills. and

what is now known as Marshall
Mills, and operated all of them in
conjunction with his other busin-
esses.
Mr.. Causey was a very public
spirited citizen and favored every
enterprise that encouraged the pro-
gress Of the town. He trained many
young men in correct business ha-
bits in his store, and encouraged
them to enter business for tkem-
selves. He was tall of stature,
weighed 200 pounds, had striking
personality, was commanding in
appearance and had a very degnifi-
ed bearing. He was greatly respect
ed in the community for his busin-
ess integrity, and was a warm sup
porter and life long member of the
Methodist Church.
In 1854, Mr.. Causey was chosen
Governor of Delaware. He took his
seat in 1855 and served 4 years. He
was remarkably impartial in his
appointments. He appointed Judge
Gilpin Chief Justice of the State
solely because of his high charac-
ter, although Gilpin differed from
him in politics.
Mr.. Causey died in 1871 and his
body rests in the old Methodist
Yard or North Street He was un-
iversally respected by his fellow
citizens aid left many descendants
long identified with the business
and social life of the town.
