I Hat'and'Muff Sets Latest Fashion By CHERIE NICHOLAS

to the queen'~ taste. You will be finding one of these

flattering sets just the thing to wear with your ~-inter fur coat. Note the winsome velvet hat and muff which the smartly cloaked young woman to the left in the picture is wearing. Black velvet ribbon shirred in a full ruche effect makes the muff, a band of the same encircling the caplil:.e turban which dips down over the right eye exactly as It should to be fashionable.

The very Charmin.: velvet hat-and- muff set which adds such a con- spicuously outstanding note to the coat of black broadcloth wifich the seated figure, below to the right in the picture, is wearing, stresses the ever chic black-and-white note, for they say in Paris ttmt the feeling for Black and white Is waning not a whir, which is se,me record when one co'.~s!ders the l)e~auilment of the delectah!e colors shown on the fall and wint'~r c')lor c').r'L The muff in thb~ i,usta:v.,e is especi{flly inter- (rating in Iiml i( is one ()f those tricky little P.ITnirs which is supposed to slide up the arm like a huge cuff when not in actual use.

Sets which feature velvet in COl> trast, as does t h i s one, are also being shown in brown or in dark green with beige l)andings. The idea is that they be a ~ f leet color match to the cloth oi' ~he coat or suit which they complenmnt.

There's shnply no way of telling all the designful things that are being (lone with velvet in the creation of these sets which fashion decrees shall be worn with the afternoon suit or the street coat. One sees, per example, the hat with a brim crowned with velvet all puffed and shirred, the treatment repeated for the muff. Like as not the ensemble will develop into a foursome, in that

a shirred and puffed velvet neck-i piece likewise a handbag will be added.

Not infrequently velvet shares the glory with fur in that the tw~ form an alliance in the making ot these decorative ensembles. Th~ black velvet hat and muff which i~ trimmed in white ermine is a favor- Ite theme with designers. One-colin schemes are worked to perfection such as, for Instance, brown velvei with mink trimmings for both muff and beret. The flat pelts such a., caracul, galyak and astrakhan are especially favored since they per. mit of a fabriclike handling as they combine with the velvet.

The littie shoulder cape which i~ made of velvet which is banded row-and-row with fur is exceedingly snmrt. Of course, in order to at- tain chic supreme it must be accompanied with a muff simil0rly worked w!th fur and velvet.

It is quite the thing, too. if one's muff 1)e all fur to adorn it with a huge velvet bow to match the velvet of o l l e ' ~ h a ~ and one's neck- piece. Fact is there is'a thousand and one ways in which velvet is partnershipping with fur in th~ making of ' the new hats, scarfs and muffs, and the game is to chobs~

COLORS IMPORTANT TO ELDERLY LADIES

L a v e n d e r a n d G r a y A r e N o t A l w a y s B e c o m l n g .

Lavender and gray a r e ~ o t always the most suitable color for ol~I ladies with gray hair. Occasion- a~iy " t.ese colors are vastly becvm- ing to old ladies. But usually they are the very most unbecomiag colors that could be chosen.

For the pale skin so usual t t older womem needs something mo~e definite, brighter or darker t ~ a these dainty, pastel colors to b r i n g out its best qualities. Really a so~, Iteep maroon is a beautiful color about an old face. The red is s o so~t that it is not harsh; and richness and warmth are refleeb~l in the colorless face above it.

T h e type of woman who probaM~r gave gray and lavender their pop~-: larity as colors for the elderly m ~ have hair that is either pure whi~e or a clear gray. There must be no~e .... of the yellow or greenish or brow, l shades so usual in graying oF whitening hair. The complexiam must be fair and smooth and fine, with an absence of sandy, sallow # e ruddy hue. And since gray is a "large" color, the woman who w e a r s tt well must be slight and slender.

NOVELTY WOOLENS

There is nothing smarter for day- time wear than a frock or ensemble of one of the fancy-woven woolens which make stunning color effect its outstanding note. The coat dress pictured is of brown and white novelty woolen. The diagonal fastep: ing and scarfed neckline, are oat- standing styling details. The brown kid pumps, cut high in front w~.th a deep tongue effect in brown and white kid, are influenced by ~he same victorian trend as is the brovn felt sailor with its fur band plac.ed high on the crown.

Winter Sports Clothes v, Are Sober but Chlc

Spectator sports clothes this win- ~er are sober but chic.

Like other articles of dress in every woman's wardrobe this season, they date back to the days ;of grandmother with their subdued shades of russet-red, terra cotta, claret and cedar greens. ~

Certainly sober, but just as certainly chic is a rusty-red wool frock with a dia.a(mal line running through it. There is a circular skirt and waist that closes with an envelo~pe flap in front buttoned with three brown leather buttons. Over i t can be worn a smart short fur jacket, ;or a knitted one intended for it.

These sports dresses in (one ~iece ~ie with sports sweaters or waistcoat blouses and sports skirts.

Pale beige is ,regarded as an important color.

Upstanding quill trimming is the latest message for the winter chapeau.

Sparkling accents give bril- liancy to the evening mode.

Ultra decolletage and the strapped effects dist inguish the formal gown.

The dinner hat becomes at. intriguing theme with the mli- line/'.

Importance of lace in ex:- quisite color and mesh is stressed in mid-season collec- { lions.

Hosiery Grows Darker to Fit Costume Trend

Dark hosiery will prevail this win. ter. With at least half of the coats of deep brown, the hosiery color problem is simplified. *For wear with the dark costume

and black shoes, a dark neutral stocking will be in the fashion pic. ture. Sheer black, dark gunmetal or off-black also will find a ptac~ in the hosiery theme with the bta~ ' ¢ostnme.

Old Gardener Says:=

A PPLES or other fruit should never be put into winter quar-

ters while wet with dew or rain. A very flood way to keep apples and pears, and vegetables as well. in a crisp, fresh state, is to pack them in clean,~.nearly dry leaves. Use a layer of leaves, then a layer of apples. employing more leaves if the room is dry than if it is moist. Vege- tables may be kept in decidedly moist leaves. Plums and peaches will not keep long unless the tern- perature is down to 33 degrees. These fruits must be ripened on the trees to be of good quality.

T HE fact that he was married to ~ladys Cowper was to remain a phenomenon to John

Bayley. That the lovely Gladys should ever have found in him s~uf- eient attributes to claim not only

l her interest but her love, was something that even in the second and third year following their marriage, was to remain a miracle in the eyes bf John.

First of all, Gladys, above every- (thing, was so alive. She radiated a vitality that Seemed to dema~ad so much more than the sedentary life in a cottaoe which the young clerk in a large wholesale floral and tree nursery was able to provide her.

Qladys, before her marriage, had been the center of a group of youths eager to provide her with more than John could. She had lived her girlhood so recklessly in the spirit of dance, frivolity and adorable nonsense !

It gave a man pause to have come into the vast inheritance of a creature of this irresistible love-of-life. It gave him pause and more than that, it gave him the urge of high ambition,

A man had to justify his good for- tune in having won a wife like Gladys. More than that, if a man wanted to hold her, he had to earn the right. John realized all this.

It gave him a sense of pride and at the s%me time filled him with a sense of torment.

What if the turn in the tide of his affairs was not to come in time? Gladys was so young, so uncon- sciously keyed to attract all who came withir~ her orb. Even on the street, heads swung after she passed. In a group she predominated. A young husband had to look to his p's and q's.

Not that Gladys herself ever gave off the slightest awareness of the extent to which she kept her husband pitched to tiptoe. The first years were just happy, love-in-a-cottage; an adorable wife and an- adorable, good-looking young husband. who could be serious one moment and p,lay-boy the next. True, resources were low. The position of clerk in the tree nursery was not remunerative and Gladys was filled with little wishes that tugged at John's heart.

"Darling, do you think we'!! ever be able to afford just a second- hand little coupe? Wouldn't it be too heavenly having one to rush

-around in?" "Oh, John, fancy being able to

buy the mink coat in that window. Honestly, if I had just an imita- tion one, I'd curl up like a sardine and d ie of happiness."

"Oh, honey, would I love a duck of a bungalow like that! Do you think we'll es*er be able to afford one imlf as nice?"

John did think, ~ great dea l . There was, of course, much to be said in behalf of his work at the nursery. The offices within walk- Ing distance of their tiny suburban cottage, were set in the midst of acres of growing roses, aisles of spicy carnations, glowing riots of fuchsias, marigold, phlox, gladiolas and madonna lilies. From the win-

d o w beside his desk, far as the eye could reach, there billowed the shining, tender green of young leaves and the wind-swept waves of color. It kept a man a little drunk with just the sense of rising sap and growing vegetation. It kept him somewhat young, and in a strange ashamed way, reverential toward the beauty of the world about him.

All very well and good from Joim's angle, t'leasant, unhurried work. The delightT~fl proximity of his small home and lovely wife. The days that ended peacefully Mth Gladys waiting for h i m at the end of the floral pergola that led from his office to the high road. All very well and good. But it got a man nowhere. One hundred and fifty dollars a month earned in the heart of a garden, got a man's wife nowh ere.

Not that Gladys complained. Of course they talked and planned for a future, but there was something frighteningly indeterminate a,bout that future. At best he, John, could only hope for an increase of from fifty to seventy-five dollars a month. Unless, of course, the un- foreseen happened, and he man- aged to wangle his way into the firm. That, however, was unlikely. Only calamity or e~tastrophe eould bring that about, and there were two husky young sons between him and the ultimate dream of member- ship in the firm.

Be that as it nmy, it must be said for Gladys that while she hankered for so many o f the good things denied he~, there was not in her attitude ~ither rancor or bitter- ness. Just a wistfulness, and it was that wistfulness which, som~ how, broke John's.heart , and at the same time filled him with fern;.

There was a eo~uutry club set in

the suburb where the Bayleys had set up their home. While not part o f it, Gladys had opportunity to observe, from the remote vantage of si('.elines, the gay-spirited existence of the polo-playing, hunting, golfing, dancing and motor doings of neigh- borhood couples about their own age.

Evening after evening the strains of dance music floated to them from the adjacent club house a n d sometimes, over the top of his newspaper, John could see the foot of Gladys, seated at her handiwork, tapping, tapping, to t h e rhythm, as if it were all she could do to hold herself in leash.

Never a word, dear darling, but John grew afraid, particularly as never an evening that Gladys did not meet him with this or that re- cital of what hearsay she had ,been able to pick up about the country club crowd.

Well, John decided to tfimself, it was just as well it was happening, and above al l , it was good that he was realizing it before something concrete came along to jeopardize his happiness. This way at least, he could take the step while there was time. Without this stimulus, he might be content to go on to the end of time in the pleasant fastness of his position and the perfection that was his in his marital relations.

It was about this time that he decided to take the situation in hand. Wail Street seemed to present the first rung in his ladder. Not in the gambling sense! John was too shrewd for that. The way to wedge in was as bond salesman. Various of his friends had worked their way into brokerage positions and finally wealth by way of that in- termediate step.

Jolm did not intend to risk one pe~my of his two thousand dollars savings. Rather, he would get out of his rut into business that prom- ised a future. T h e way to hold a beautiful, rest-

less: young wife was to widen her horizon. The way to keep pace with the younger generation around them was to live a little danger- ously.

A man was a fool not to realize that.

Gladys, at first quite bowled over by the proposal of the radical change in their lives, pdmitted, however, to seeing the wisdom of a young man's alertness to his future.

Of course a small apar*ment in New York would be more diverting, and then there was John's future to consider. Naturally, a vigorous, up-and-coming young fellow, fairly bursting with ambition, must have his chance.

Curious, she told herself, how well John had kept this ambition in leash during those first few sweet peaceful years of their marriage! She had been lax and absurdly bovine

i n not discovering the latent rest- lessness in his:makeup.

It was not easy dismantling the house. It was al5 absurd little af- fair, built like a gingerbread cottage, and almost buried behind foli- age and shrubbery that the nurser- ies had bestowed upon young Bay- Icy when he married.

It was not until they were strip- ping the little garden of the furni.ture that together they had built and painted, that there arrived the moment when the equanimity of Qladys collapsed.

There were more tears than she had ever in her life shed and all in a volley, a revelation out of the blue.

"Oh, John--must we--must we-- of course, I know it Is for your g o o d ~ a young fellow must have his chance--his f u t u r e - b u t can't you stay ,back here, darl ing--and work toward i t~qu ie t ly - - jus t us. I haven't wanted ~you to know tt, dearest, but it is breaking my heart to move into town, as just another wife of just another nervous, har- assed bond salesman in just another fiat."

Of course, the cat ~vas out of the~ bag then. The most joyous bounc- ing. elated cat imaginable.

The Bayleys still live in their gingerbread house.

It seems fantastic, but .then life can be fantastic. The two sons who stood between John and member- ship in the floral company's firm were tragically killed on the same field at polo.

Too Risky On his al~pointment the new man-

ager of a certain bank was given much publicity, and photographs of him were reproduced in newspapers. All were not printed attractively.

A depositor wandered in, walked up to the manager, produced one of his photographic reproductions, and asked, "Is this your picture?"

The manager assured him that it w a s .

"And are you the manager of this bank ?"

The other admired that he was. "Well, give me my money!" or-

dered the depositor.

Responsibi l i ty for T h e f t The Hannnurabian code, which

antedated the code of Moses by about a thousand years, included the following provision: "If anyone has committed a rot~bery and he is caught, he shall be killed. If th~ robber is not caught, the man who has been robbed shall make claim before God to everything stolen from him, and the town and its governor within the territory and limits of which the robbery took place shall give back to him everything he has lost."

Lucy Learns the T r u t h .

E VEN as he told her this he cursed himself for telling it.

l ie hadn't meant to; he had meant to go slowly, working toward the completion of his revenge in his own way, until the moment was ripe for his triumph. His marriage with John Gresham's girl had been only the beginning el the vengeful schemes which seethed in his brain. He had laid his plans so carefully, had taken his first steps so successfully, yet here he was, jeopardizing them, p e r h a p s even wreck ing them, at the very s t a r t . And why? Wliy~ All because he was fool enough to be oddly moved by her . . . because he was fool enough to be s t i r r ed by he r you th and l i t t l e n e s s ; he r p u r e s w e e t n e s s ; because the c los ing o f a door behind her had made him feel like an ogre who has t r a p p e d a t r u s t i ng l i t t le fairy . . . .

All th is a nd more, wen t t h rough and t h r o u g h his mind as he s tood looking, sul len-eyed, down a t Lucy, whi le she, horrif ied, incredulous , s t a r ed up a t h im . . . .

T h e n : " J im ," he said, in a low voice,

"Th i s i sn ' t t rue , is i t? You . . you a r e n ' t r ea l ly te l l ing me thiM I m e a n . . . i t ' s some so r t of . . . d ream, i sn ' t i t ? " T h e words quiv. e red p i t i fu l ly to silence.

" I t is t rue , " he said doggedly. " T h a t you don ' t love me?" Sh~

was sti l l u n a b l e to believe. " T h a t I don ' t love you," he r e

plied. "And . . . t h a t you ne~;er have?" "And t h a t i neve r have ." She looked at him a moment

longer , t he n d rew g deep breat]~ and passed a shak ing hand acros~ he r fo rehead .

"You a re te l l ing me th is seriously? Ser ious ly , J i m ? " she sa id in t r e m u l o u s whisper .

E v e n now, he believed, i t would no t be too l a t e to retract the ter- r ib le t ru th , to blot it f r om he~ mind with p r o t e s t a t i o n s of love, and win he r back to f a i t h in him. F o r she was still ha l f - incredulous .

i E v e n now, it would not be too late to save his p lans f r om des t ruc t ion . And e v e r y t h i n g in him t h a t was set upon revenge , cr ied out to him to do t h i s ; to t ake her in to hi~ arms, tel l h e r it had all been s tupid j o k e ; a t e s t ; a n y t h i n g sc t h a t he could kiss away t he h o r r m tha t m o m e n t had been to h e r . . .

T h e r e was a silence. H e r eyes n e v e r l e f t his face, bu t t hey we re qu i t e un readab l e . W h e t h e r she was shocked a t this news or no t he cou ldn ' t tell . P e r h a p s a f t e r w h a t had j u s t gone, she was p a s t t he po in t of be ing shocked f u r t h e r . She w a s so u n m o v e d t h a t he sa id I aga i n :

" I am t h a t man . " "Wel l , " she said in t h a t s teady ,

m e a s u r e d voice t h a t sounded so t e r r i b l y wrong, f rom her. "Wel l , you a r e t h a t man, t h e n ; I be l i eve you.

"To pay t h e m back ." T h e words fell v e ry cold and clear .

" F a t h e r ? " she ques t ioned .

" H a d you done it, J i m?" Her dead voice c a m e up to him, h i t t ing on his ne rves . I f only she 'd change the tone, show some life . . . .

"The mahogany industry, Justly commemorated on the flag of Brit- ish Honduras by the tools of the trade, lured the earliest settlers to Belize in the Eighteenth century, put money in their pockets, furnished sometlfing for them and their back- er, Great Britain, to fight the Span- iards; and today is responsible for the main industry of Belize and British Honduras--lumbering.

"The people of Belize even tell solemnly how the lowest portions of their city, once a seemingly bottom- l ess swamp, h a v e been filled in and made usab le by the mill ions of mahogany chips hacked there f rom logs which mus t be roughly squa red be- f o r e they a re r e a d y for marke t .

Becomes Crown Colony, "When the s e t t l e r s were seen to

be making a good thing o f thei r mahogany trade, the Spanish changed the i r policy and began ha ra s s ing them. A ser ies of wars . .and t rea t - ies bet~ 'een Spain and England followed. In 1798 the Spaniards , at- t ack ing Belize, w e r e driven off by Br i t i sh se t t le rs wi th cannon mount- ed on ra f t s and f latboats . In 1862 the ' se t t lement ' was dec lared a 'col- .ony,' and was given a l i eu t enan t governor act ing under the gove rno r of Jamaica . In 1884 it became a s e p a r a t e crown colony.

"In addit ion to mahogany and log- wood Belize ca r r i e s on an ac t ive t r a d e with the Uni ted S ta tes in ba- nanas , coconuts, c i t rus fruits , cacao, and thousands of bales of chicle, the la t te r the ~,aw mater ia l of chew- ing gum. e r e c t Br i t a in and Canada divide ti~e small p a r t of the co lony ' s t r a d e that does not go to the Uni ted States .

Swee twa te r , Neb . - -Hig i ] on a bluff over looking B e a v e r Creek, the fore- f a the r s of the P a w n e e Ind ians of the Nebraska p la ins built a city.

The site of the ancient city of the plains, west of here, was discovered this summer by archeologists seek- ing knowledge to trace the history of some of the plain's Indian tribes. The old city, buried by a few feet of earth, is believed to have flour- ished 600 years ago.

Chipped flint bone instruments, bits 6f pottery, pretty beads and ar- row-heads have been taken from the ruins. From the specimens sci- entists are piecing together a story of the early Indian of the prairie.

Traces of a lost city were first found by workmen for the railroad, for a track was laid over a portion of the city.

Happy New Year! _

Once more it 's t ime to take down the old calendars and put up the new ones.

Also it is well to remember tha t this is the t ime for resolut ions the t ime to swear off on smoking and profan- ity, and promise the wife to go to church.

The same set of res- olutions you made las t yea r will be O. K. if they were not too badly broken.

Ours are beyond re- I The road has be~ pair, so we a re making tmostly up hill the pat up a new set. six Or3weight years, h t

it looks as though -o are~not a p r o p h - a r e o er the top nor,

We with a lot of beautial et, but we believe the scenery ahead of us coming y e a r is going to be a good one in more ways than one.

We are optimistic.

Like the old man who said on his 100th birth- day, " I ' ve always noticed tha t when I live past the f irst of January , i always live to the end of the year".

We share tha t old gent leman ' s confidence.

We believe there is every reason to hope for be t te r condi~ons for everybody in 1932.

And we hope yc~r" journey through 1,~ may be pleasant, prs- perous, and extreml~" en joyab le - -every ~.lQ of it!

Incidental ly, we wmt to say tha t the Elkl;nd Roller Mills is "all ~U' to sezwe your ~ a r , feed and coal needs :~r" another year, and ne are hoping to see pu: f requent ly during ~]e coming twelve mom/~s.
