There was other food for Lightfoot. He really wasn't depend- ent on beechnuts. The same thing was true of Mr. and Mrs, Grousc. But they were disappointed. They are very fond of beechnuts and they liad looked forward to a feast when these little nuts should be ripe. “I feel as if 1 had been cheated.” #aid Mrs. Grouse, “There is hard more than a taste and there are all those greedy Squirrels acting as if they thought they owned these beechnuts.

She means to have her share. And there is Cubby Bear, too!” Sure enough, Mrs. Dear came shuffling up, but Cubby Dear kept bis distance. 1t was quite evident that Cubby didn’t dare come very near either Buster Dear or Mrs. Bear.

Contrasted with the minimum ghow- ings of patterned fabrics fall, the gay appearance of silk depart- ments is especially impressive, dem- onstrating the tremendous growth in novelties during a single year. Fashion favor for printed velvets and novelty velvets of all types has led to as large a selection of designs as possible, all of which were speci- fied for delivery in time to mer- chandise them immediately following the Paris openings. Consequently, complete ranges are now on view, offering the consumer a width of choice that is almost without par- allel in a fall season. Metals have been relegated to the background in most shops, with all attention con- centrated on velvets. Novelty is not restricted to vel- vets, however. Home of the new weaves of the year-—new satins, new moires and new taffetas have an im- portant place in showings, as have a host of printer novelties for day- time wear. Wool-filled crepe failles, Canton crepes, and flat crepes print- ed with cravat and woolen designs are the subject of much exploitation. In this group also is included satin crepes printed on either the dull or the shiny side, the former being con- sidered as somewhat more important this year, Moires are now shown in daytime and evening colors and nearly every shop that makes a point of fashion is accenting some version of printed moire—plaided, flowered or even more simply spot- ted. both A real handana handkerchief gave Natacha Rambova, wife of the late Rudolph Valentino, the idea and the | pattern of this mammy costume which she designed for Klsa Leh- | man, singer of songs of the south.

Former Laundry Workers, Now Millionaires, Touring World on Belated Honeymoon. Arkansas City, Kas, Oct. 29.— Love will always find a w ‘Thirty years ago Mrs. Laura Altom, a young widow with two small sons to support, worked in the little Empire laundry here. It was owned by C. N. Hunt, mayor and postmaster for 18 years. One. of the settlers in Oklahoma's famous Cherokee strip, C. C. Endi- cott, came along, married her, and took her to his newly-claimed farm, where with her meager sav- ings they bought an additional 160 | acres of farm land. | Times continued hard, however. To hold the land they had bought Mrs, Endicott had to run a hand laundry, and she and her husband | and her two sons went through many | long years of very hard work. The land was not very good. and while | they would gladly have sold it they could find no buyers. | Then, in 1921, they found them- | selves plopped nto one of Okla- homa's traditional fairy tales. Th Comar Oil company leased Mrs. Endi- | cott's land, and struck a gusher of ze. For three years she enjoyed an income of more than $5.000 a day; in a short time the family moved to California and be- | £an to enjoy their new riches. They were millionaires, several times over. | A year ugo Mr. Endicott died, and | the woman was again a widow. | Thirly years ago a young man worked in the little Empire laundry here—one Dave C. Twedell. He and the young widow were sweethearts, They might have married had not ! some turn of fate separated them; and when she married Endicott, ‘Twedell moved to Arizona, where he 00 was married. A year ago Mrs. Twedell died. Recently Mrs. Endicott chanced to pass through Phoeniy, Ariz There she met her old friend, Dave Twedell. They fell in love all over again—and a ministor who had also been a fel- low-worker in the Empire laundry 30 years ago. Mr. and Mrs. David C.

HIS FRIENDS By Mrs. Agnes Lync Carl Ewald in his book “My Little Boy” writes charmingly of his little boy's first swectheart. i The young man brought her in from the playground one day and announced that he was going to marry her. He was about five and she was a year or more older. She was fat and dirty and possessed of more appetite than intelligence. She was stuffy and slow and certainly did not come of a very good family. But rhe was the girl of his choice and she charmed him. The little boy's mother was all for casting out this unprepossessing fi- ancee. But his father felt quite rightly that in matters of the heart we cannot dictate to others. So the young lady was made welcome. True, Lefore they were permitted to play together, she had usually to be sub- Jectéd to & vigorous scrubbing and fed great quantities of food, but this | Was no barrier to their youthful hape piness. The affair ran its course une Ul another and fairer charmer usurped her place. The moral is clear. (‘hlldnn must choose theeir own friends. In our eyes their virtues and charms may be conspicuously absent, but it is not for us to pass judgment. Whoever they whatever they are, we must take them in and make them wels come. f they are valgar, stupid and un- | trustworihy it will not be long hefore our child finds it out. Hoon enough he will be bored or repelled. Mean- while he has learned something of the art of human relationships. When we mock our child’s cholce of friends we do violence to his best instincts. How can a child develop loyalty if at home he must stand by while his friends are made fun of or criticized? He must feel like & traitor when later on he plays with them down the street. How shall he learn tolerance if not by a catholie taste in friends? He will get on bet- ter with people all his life for hav- ing had all sorts of friends when he was little.
