PALM BEACH DISPLAYS A 3 {l ' (By United Press) Palm ‘Beach, Fla., Jan. 20.—This winter playground: of the rich is this . year living upito its reputation as a stage for early showing of the 1921 summer fashions. The fashion new 1921 SUMMER FASHIONS | year on the sands, in the ball room | & ‘and drawing rooms is in full swing. The- hand that. occasionally has ‘roched the cradle stopped to don its new spring, frock, It was indicated that: e . 1=—Short .skirts are going to be shorter. 2—The transparent stocking will be m6¥ transparent. B 3—The undraped hat will be cov- ered with silk and ribbons, 4—The round-toed shoe will be pointed. '5—Wool mixtures, ginghams and dimities will be favored. 6—The loud colors last year will become shrieks in the summer -of 1921, Women who thought the extreme| in dress had been reached decided that skirts might be made an inch shorter without undue exposure. The knitted stocking will be a net stock-! ing with lots of air holes. The radi- cals gained a victory in hat decora- tion with the addition of numerous silk ribbon accessories. round-toed shoes were left behind for the more dressy tight pointed ones, and garments of wool mixture for spring wear seemed to hold favor. The fashionable set of Palm Beach drew no color line. Every brilliant| hue of the rainbow was represented. | Brown seemed to be the dominating color, if there was one that could be| called dominant. 1 Among the lesser questions - in “what we women are going to wear for the mext six months” it was de- cided: The collarless neck will re- main collarless and the already short sleeve is going to be shortened. One particularly stril:ing bodice with fichu drapped over the shoulders in a style common in the days of 1776 drew attention, It was made of fine ba- tiste and lace and hung over the arms just above the shoulders, leaving the lower arm bare except for an onyx| bracelet on one wrist. Among the other striking costumes which have attracted attention were:| A sport costume of pale pink crepe | de chinig the skirt of which was em-| broidereu heavily. The dainty blouse had a round collar of Venice point lace. Over this was worh a gray an-| gora cape with a large gray hat dec- orated with -pink moss roses. High| white kid shoes of pointed French| design' were used. A rather novel dress of pale blue rajah silk, embroidered in apple blos- soms in the pink shades with green leaves, made its appearance. This| dress had short, tight sleeves and| round neck. A large blue chipped straw hat, trimmed with tiny apple blossoms, and, a sinall silver fox neck- piece, completed the costume. .. A simple street” frock of Poiret twill was trimmed. with hues of rib- bon and .the same style repeated in foulards of closely covered small pat- terns in a gay hue. a |, o Among the evening dresses noticed at recent spectacles were: = A stribing fress of tangerine silk, headed in jet beads, and the tight sleeves, bodice and overskirt were en- tirely beaded in jet nail heads about one-half inch apart. A long draped skirt of black satin with the blouse, sleeveless and long waisted, of white brocaded velvet. This was worn with a black panne vel- vet hat, with aigrettes and a scarf of Russian sable. . A handsome black chantilly gown over white chiffon had a narrow gir- dle of old blue ribbon and garlands of rococco flowers, A glistening black jet robe with extremely short skirt supplemented by a square train. This was worn by a beautiful Cuban, who wore a black Comfortable |, year the kerd will be much larger. Famous Goats of Gook County .

E. Hogue (United Press Correspondent.) Shanghai. (By Majl.)—Atrocities ot which Koreans living on Chinese s0il were the yictims and which were brought about between October 9 and November 5, 1920, by Japanese, who have arbitrarily invaded the territory of upper Manchuria, are described in a statement by the Korean Red Cross Slain and ipjured persons total 2 933 in six counties, the report as- serted, while 1,982 buildings were destroyed in the same area. Twenty- five churches were burnea and nine school buildings wrecked. Not only lives and property were destroyed by the invading Japanese, but food supplies were confiscated, the ind:ctment stated. Among other foodstuffs said to have been either re- moved or destroyed were 53,256 pi- culs of grain. A picul is 135 pounds. Major.

They would also like to know whether or not they have made ' any profit on the farm as a whole.' 1t would he inferesting also to know | just what enterprises in their farm’ business were profitable and which | were unprofitable for the year. | ‘While most farmers would like to have the above facts about thelir busi- ness, very few have them. H The first question, “How Do 1] Stand?” can easily be answered. The! Gifference between what a farmer!| owns and what he owes is his net! worth. If one will make a fair and | ccurate inventory at the beginning f the year he has the basis for de- termining his net ‘worth. | The inventory at the beginning of | the year should include the value of all property owned, including live-! stock, machinery, feed and supplies, cash, and bills owed him by odhers. | From this3hould be-deducteg the sum ' of all mortgages, notes and bills owed by him to otfiers. ‘[hé difference be- tween the two shows his net worth. ! ‘The net worth of this year should be compered with that cf last year to determine how much has been made. | if a stdtement was not made last year, thén the-one made this ygar| should be preserved, another one! made pext year, and the comparison begun.

Goat Disclosed Rich Mine. A mountain goat recently was re- sponsible for the discovery of what is belleved to be one ofgthe most valu- able mines in British Columbia, which had been hunted by prospectors for veurs, after rich tloat ore had been found. A. Finn was hunting mountain goats high above timber line. He had | trailed an animal for,miles when’ it came out on a glacier and stood in full view against the sky on a pin- | nacle of ice. §inn’s rifle eracked and the goat fell dead down a steep preci- | pice and rolled several hundred feet. Its body fetched up near the foot of the glacier and when Finn réached it he found it had dislodged a massive rock beneath which the long-searched- for vein lay exposed.

PIONEER STATIONERY HOUSE Bemidji, Minn, J Chapter 3. My yrds ‘lyNa»u,-3 ———————————— ‘A Serial Story of Mr. Kilo Watt. The Thrilling Tale of the Wonders of a Wonder Worker, Told in Monthly Install- ments by Kilo Watt, himself. P.S.—Don’t miss a single chapter AST menth, I, K. Watt, started to .explain.- to the Housewives of the Country, who are " the Man- agers of the Biggest Business in the World — HOUSE- KEEPING—something of my family history in explanation of my name and my qualifi- cations as a Servant. To con- tinue: & During the early part of the Ninteenth Century, ex- periments. with Electric Force were being carried on by many scientists, among whom was A. M. Ampere of France, whose -contribution to My Present Power and Ability was so warmly re- garded as to cause his name to be used as a term, “Am- pere,” meaning: The rate of flow of elec- tricity through a wire; that is, the amount passing thru per, second, just as gallons ‘per 'second or cubic inches * per second measure the rate of flow of water sent thru a pipe. 3 « At the same time James Watt, a Scotchman, was dis- covering steam power and the steam engine. The Power or force produced by his steam engine . and. by electric force were compared and his last name therefore is used as an elec- trical term, “Watt,” which is: and: developing The power produced by a given number of amperes sent through a wire at a giv- en voltage, just as “horse. power” iz the measure of power produced by a given number of gallons or cubic inches of water per minute sent through a pipe at a giv- en pressure. Watts in tarn may be measured in horse- power when the energy is used for power purposes, or in candle-power when used for lighting purposes. Watts are measurable - units of power or energy, just as “foot-pounds” are a measure of power or energy. One horsepower equals 746 watts, or 33,000 foot-pounds per minute. (A horsepower is the amount of energy re- quired to raise a weight of 33,000 pounds one foot from the ground in one minute.) Therefore, my last nane very plainly means a defittite measuré of Electrical Powér, or Force, produced under the conditions stated above.
