N. D. Highway
No. 7 Completed
To Garrison

North Dakota is making rapid
strides on their North Central
highway construction which is
Highway No. 7, says R. S. Mutt
who conferred with highway peo-
pie over there last week.
With only 10 miles to black
top, they have completed a fed
eral primary highway from Gar
rison dam to the Twin Cities.
Their No. z west from Garrison
dam is partly oiled and all grad
ed and gravelled to the inter-
section of the highway with No.
85 near Grassy Butte.
Many people along this high
way express the wish that No.
7 be extended in a northwesterly
direction so it will give their
Roosevelt National Park a high
way through the center, which
would give tourists and local
people a view of the most beau
tiful handiwork of the Creator
afforded by any park in Ameri-
ca having the same altitude.
The United States pays for
highways passing through ma
tional parks, which is a big item
and saves the state the construc-
ton of this costly highway. Vice
president of the Central High
way Association of Montana, Mr..
Mutt made a trip ove this high
way across North Dakota last
week and reports the people over
there anxious to see it completed
as soon as possible. Also their
highway No. % is very impor-
tant from Watford City through
New Town and west to the yell
Iowstone bridge and Sidney, he
reports.
MI. Mutt called on John Davis
at McClusky, N. D., which is on
highway No. 7. Mr.. Davis, who
operates several fine farms there,
S running for governor of North
Dakota this fall. A report on
his highway will be given at
he meeting of the Montana Cen
raj Highway association which
will be held at Lewistown the
after part of this month.

and Miss Helen Gray of the

Paris. The luncheon vas held
at the Willard Hotel.
Miss Fairall has reviewed
the Paris collections since 1911
but this year having retired
after so full fashion years in
the retailing business. she did
not attend the openings at the
time that most buyers did.
"I had a view I had never
seen before when ! was part
of the furious buying group OF
Americans" said Miss Fairall.
She saw one showing a day.

up the couture gossip" she
passed on to the Fashion
Group members.
Listeners heard her tell OF
the fashion excitement at Lam
WINS whose owner the Count
esS de Polignac is the cousin
of Prince Rainier.
The Princes sister, Antoi-
nette, has ordered is dresses
for the festivities.
Although nearly all the eve
ming dresses in the Paris col
lotions were short, many of the
chic women going on to Mo-
naco for the Kelly Rainier
wedding festivities are order
ing them made full length.
Although the bulk of Grace
Kelley's trousseau is American
designed she is going to wear
a Lanvin design of white satin
to the opening of the Monte
Carlo Opera.
Nine. Bonnet the wife of the
former French Ambassador is
working for Christian Dior in
Paris these days. Miss Fairall
said that her short, short hair
do with soft waves is causing
much comment at the salon.
Nine. Bonnet plans to wear a
yellow satin gown with a white
top embroidered with lilies of
the valley to the Monacan
celebration.
Bit Disappointed
Miss Fairall was a bit dis
appointed in the lack of news
making fashion details in the
Paris collections. There were
so many sheaths that one got
the impression women were
running around in their slips.
Hats of all sizes. mostly
large, were the biggest excite
ment in the French collections
this season.
Prediction has it that next
season the French couture may
erupt another fashion explo-
sion worthy of new look"

Miss Helen Gray of du Pont,
did the fashion commentary
for the 10 French originals
that were shown. They ranged
from brief jacketed wool suits
to white ribbed-cotton ball
gowns. A white raincoat and

plause, as did the designs Of
Balenciaga, jacques Critic,
and Madeleine de Rauche.

One group using the Hawaiian
theme for their campfire shindig,
kept a guitar going with everyone
taking turns. They split coconuts
and drank the milk from the shell,
and munched on the coconut all
evening.
This type of party will even be
approved by parents for backyard
parties because the singing instead
of being uproarious, if you concen-
trate on the folk songs, is soft and
sothing. If the party is held in your
own backyard, yous can do a fun
job of decorating, starting with
stringing lights. Use the Christmas
tree outdoor lights for the purpose.
Use candles on the tables, placing
them in dirt-filled flower pots for
a decorative and safety note.
If you do have backyard party,
you'll be able to play return en-
gagements if you'll just clean up
after the guests are gone. Or get
them to help you do it, Use paper

those right into the fire. Spoons
