Deworralic Wada Bellefonte, Pa., August 19, 1921. FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN. DAILY THOUGHT. Kindness by secret sympathy is tied, For noble souls in nature are allied. —Dryden. Even the plainest woman looks well with white linen near the face and hands. How clever of men to hide this from us for years! Every man knows the effect on his moral of a fresh collar and of having his hair patted down smoothly. Act on my advice and take to clean collars and cuffs. They can be made of white pique, and washed in a wash- bowl every night. A few snaps on the collar of your coat, and you are as fresh and smart as the best-groomed man. Your whole life depends on how you look and how you feel. Many an otherwise perfect toilette has been spoiled by a wrinkled or twisted stocking. It is very important today, when one shows so much stock- ing, that it is at least put on straight, and made smooth about the ankles. A wrinkled, untidy heel is usually caused by the stockings being too large. There is some sort of an idea that stockings wear longer if they are several sizes too long. As a matter of fact, they don’t. They rumple under the feet, causing irritation and nerv- ous shuffling of the feet, which rubs holes in them much faster than a little stretching would do if they fitted properly. It's the same with too large shoes. They are just as bad as shoes that are too small. In fact, the harmony of every detail depends upon having it as nearly just right as possible. Write a list of your holiday clothes, and attach this to the inside of the lid of your trunk or suitcase. It will be a great assistance when collecting your belongings for repacking, partic- ularly if you do not stay more than a night or two in each place. . The idea of having to pack soiled with clean clothes is repulsive. One way out of the difficulty is to post home soiled garments. An entire clean supply of stockings and hand- kerchiefs can be kept by rinsing them regularly every evening when chang- ing for supper or before going to bed. A lace or net frock will travel bet- ter in a dressmaker’s box, by post, than in a suitcase. Pack in plenty of tissue paper, with all accessories in the way of shoes, stockings, flowers, hair ornaments, gloves and furs, so that the complete toilette is ready as soon as the occasion for wearing it occurs. Don’t forget a “housewife” or a traveling work basket. Holiday wear is generally much rougher and more stitch-breaking than office or home wear, and holiday makers have lots of leisure to observe stitches that are conspicuous by their absence. Although silk bags have almost en- tirely done away with leather ones, the latter are certainly more comfort- able to use when traveling. They have plenty of pockets for holding tickets, passports, money, etc., and the stiff- ness of the leather enables one to find these necessities quickly. Watch the face of the ticket inspector whilst the silk-bag lady keeps him waiting for the ticket that has mixed itself up with umpteen other articles at the bot- tom of her handbag! Amusing Races.—There were races of all kinds, in at least one of which everyone could participate. First came the goose race for the married women only. A light collar was put about the neck of every goose, with reins attached. A course was marked off, and the drivers were provided with light switches. The matron whose goose reached the finishing post in the lead was declared the winner. Next came the “nursemaids’ ” race for the little folks under 7 years of age. They were dressed in long skirts and aprons, and were required to run a carriage with a doll inside to the end of the course. The child who reached the goal without spilling her baby was given a small prize as the winner. For the young people there was a wheelbarrow race, which occasioned 2 great deal of laughter. Each young man drove at full speed to a goal at a distance a wheelbarrow in which was seated a girl. Then came the usual potato and sack races, finishing the day with sup- per under the trees. A tub-silk petticoat is an indispen- sable garment in the smart woman’s wardrobe; therefore, it is welcome news that such a skirt in an enduring quality can be purchased for only $2.95. The skirt has shadow-proof panels back and front the bottom hem is neatly hemstitched and the waistband is fitted with elastic. The skirt comes in all desired lengths. It is very practical for wearing under any kind of outer garments. So far 28 1 can ascertain it comes in white only. Ears will be popular for women ' again this winter, according to dele- gates to the convention of the Nation- al Hairdressers’ Association. Bobbed hair has come to stay, they also in- sisted, but indicated that fewer wom- ; en would wear shorn locks as the, years go by. ; | A mop of cheesecloth strips 1} inch- es wide and 8 inches long, made fast to a light handle, is just the thing to keep a papered wall clean. : Printers make a paste of flour and water, spread this on marble, and, after allowing it to dry, simply brush it off with the result that the marble is perfectly clean. A cheese omelet, toast and jam | make a good Sunday supper. Old hair brushes which have be- come soft may be made quite firm and stiff again by dipping the bristles in- to strong alum water. Dissolve the alum in hot water, but do not use it till it is cold. | It is a good plan to place only slen- der furniture in small rooms and to confine the heavier and more comfort- able pieces to the larger ones. NEW RECORD FOR STATE ROAD WORK. Two hundred and ten highway con- struction projects now under way in Pennsylvania are employing 12,000 men, according to estimates announc- ed recently by the State Highway De- partment. The men are actually en- gaged on the road work while thous- ands of others are kept in sand banks, quarries, cement mills and asphaltic plants preparing material for the road builders. During the 1921 construction season | more than 316 miles of durable high- way were constructed up until July 28, while contracts awarded during the year totalled 308 miles. The open- ing of bids for an additional sixty miles recently, brought 222 bids, the greatest record ever made in the his- tory of road building in the country. The world’s construction record for one week was reached by contractors on roads in Pennsyvania during the week ending July 28, when more than thirty-five miles of highway was put down. Statisticians of the Highway Department have figured that it would take a train twenty-nine miles long to transport the materials which entered into the road construction during the banner week. Some of the materials used in the record week’s construction were 133,- 385 barrels of cement, 39,515 cubic yards of sand, 59,290 cubic yards of stone, 961 tons of reinforcing steel and a large amount of bituminous surfac- ing and vitrified block. It would have required ninety-six trains of forty cars each to have transported all of the ma- terial and the concrete used would have made a solid cube 127 feet square. The 533,540 bags of cement were sufficient to fill 670 box cars, while the sand, filled 1,333 cars and the stone 1,852 cars. This is a total of 3,855 cars without taking care of the steel and the other materials. Most of the construction was of roads the ce ter and six inches at the sides. —Reformatory Record. —Get your job work done here. Fire Observation Towers to be Erect- ed by State. Major R. Y. Stuart, deputy commis- sioner of forestry, has announced that twenty-five sites have been definitely fixed for forest fire observation tow- ers that will be erected by the Depart- ment of Forestry this summer. Or- ders for fifty towers have been placed with the manufacturers. The remain- ing locations will be selected by Geo. H. Wirt, chief forest fire warden, within the next few weeks. Major Stuart indicated the follow- ing locations of the first eighteen tow- ers that will be put up: Blue Knob, Bedford county; Lower Yoder, Vinton- dale, and St. Lawrence, Cambria coun- ty; Highland Fling, Blair county; Martin Hill, Bedford county; Tusca- rora Mountain, Franklin county; Broad Mountain and Blue Mountain, Huntingdon county; Round Mountain, Mifflin county; Snow Shoe, Centre county; Loyalstock, Hagerman’s Gap, Cogan House; and Chemung, Lycom- ing county; State Camp, Clinton coun- ty, and Arnot, Tioga county.

ALL RUN DOWN AND WORN OUT Because you have not thoroughly purified your blood, but have allowed to remain in it the accumulations of waste matter that cause weakness, loss of appetite, dull headache, broken sleep, backache, eruptions and humors and other troubles. Take Hood’s Sarsaparilla, the medi- cine that renovates, strengthens, tones —it will build you up, make you feel better all over.

His methods were crude; partly traditional, . partly guesswork. His tests were few and inconclusive. Meat packing of today, as carried on by Swift & Company, has changed all that. It is scientific. Nothing is left to chance; nothing taken for granted. The most painstaking care and attention are given to every step. Processes are worked out on a large scale with minute ‘exactness. Methods are continually revised and improved. Cleanliness is insisted upon. Drastic, incessant inspections are the order of the day. + Swift products are uniform, graded accord- ing to quality. Take bacon, for instance. Swift & Company set out years “ago to make a delicious, savory bacon which should be uniformly excellent. The result is he Brand Bacon, always the same, always fa- mously good. Today this bacon, IB a esses re PREMIUM circled the world. Swift & Company’s system of distribution car- ries it to places which the “town butcher” or Swift's Premium SWIFTS wrapped, sealed the farmer could not reach. Swift & Company, U. S.

That fact made it has always lead in lowest first cost as well as in lowest cost to Runabout, Touring Car, Coupe, Sedan, Truck and Fordson Tractor—we have them all and will make reasonably prompt delivery. Simplicity has ever marked the designing and building of Ford cars, trucks and trac- tors. Henry Ford and his engineers have always striven for simplicity with strength. The success of the Model *“I"’ Ford car and a great part of the Ford Motor Company's succes; has com= from an early understanding and appreciation of that principle in motor car construction. simple truth is carried out the result is bound to be a The fewer the parts in a car, fewer the parts to go wrong. When that in producing a car, as it is in Ford cars, trucks and tractors, simplicity of design and building that means simplicity, dura- bility and economy of operation. This simplicity of construction proves itself in the ease with which Ford cars, trucks and tractors are driven. Four million five hundred Ford cars in daily service proves every claim we make. More than ever we ars sure the Ford car is your necessity—let’s have your ordor to- day. BEATTY MOTOR CO, Bellefonte, Pa. Shoes. Shoes.
