A DOTTED DUET STYLE
as worn in Hollywood by
Dorothea Kent
Popular Screen Actress
The polka dot has expanded. This
new coin dot fs fashion’s latest and
is destied to pass the polka dot in
popularity. In this fashion of the
week the coin dot has been beauti-
fully converted into an eye-catching
color duet. An ingenious arrange-
ment of the two tones creates a
miracle in figure flattery. Note the
effect the light panel, covering the
shoulders and parading down the
front, has on one’s hips and waist.
The two side panels, scalloped on
the bodice, plus the sleeves and the
back, are of the darker color. A self-
belt ties about the waist and a gar-
denia nestles on the collar. The color
schemes are all important This one
as worn by Miss Kent is a combina-
tion of earth brown and beige. It
also makes up beautifully in blue—
a sky blue with navy.

WMS HOLDS WEEK OF PRAYER
FOR HOME MISSIONS
Mrs. Bob McClendon was leader
Tuesday at the WMS meeting. Those
taking part on the program were:
Mrs. Joe Fleming, Mrs. G. M. Me-
Neilly, Mrs. Bob McClendon, Mrs.
Ed. Ballard, Mrs. Vernon Carter
and Mrs. W. P. Culp Jr.
The Society also meets Wednesday
and Thursday. We are observing
the March Week of Prayer for home
Missions.
Present Tuesday were: Mesdames
Robert Jphnson, Gene Whitten, Guy
Carter, C. R. Miller; Wallace Ar-
buckle, Louie Pfeiffer, Joe Flem-
ing, Bob McClendon; Vernon Car-
ter, Paul Jacobsen, Hamp Burke;
Elder, W. C. Brown; J. H. Allen,
W. P. Culp Jr., W. P. Culp Sr., Glenn
Jackson, G. M. McNeilly, Pat Burns,
Lee Wilson, Clay Davis and Alfred
Brown.
We will, meet on March 5, with our
sponsor, Mrs. Ress Ward.
Miss Vogt gave the bulletins: C-33
“Feeding for Egg Production,” B-65
“Poultry Houses for Texas,” and
B-71 “Poultry Yard Equipment.”
She showed us a home made water
fountain for baby chicks made out
of a coffee can and a pie plate,
which anyone can make by punching
a hole about -one inch from the open
end of the can and filling it with
water, placing the tin pan over it and
: turning it over. The water will
slowly fill the pan and keep it full.
Miss Vogt also showed a home-
made feed hopper for grown chick-
ens, and one that can be made for
baby chicks.
In discussing “Feeding Laying
’lens”, she brought out that—“Feed
serves two main purposes; 1st, to
maintain the body; second, to manu-
facture eggs. About 75% of the
feed fed chickens is used to maintain *
the body. If a hen gets only enough
feed to keep her body going, she
will lay few, if any eggs.”
Either a home mixed mash or com-
mercial mashes may be fed, but they
must be balanced rations to fill the
requirements of the hen. A complete
ration must contain grain as well as
milk feed, animal proteins, green
feeds, minerals, and water.
“One hundred hens need 3% to 4
gallons of milk per day to furnish
the protein needs if no other protein
is fed. Meat scraps and fish meal
added furnish protein needs. One
dozen contain one pint of water, and
more than half of the hens weight
is water. Therefore it is very neces-
sary that hens be given a plentiful
supply of water. A drop in produc-
tion during cold weather is almost
always the result of the bird not
getting enough warm water.
On March 13th we will meet at
the home of our bedroom demonstra-
tor. On our next meeting March 5,
we will make a quilt block, or tufted
chair cushion.

appreciated by all.
Mr. and Mrs. Ewald Lind of Aus-
tin visited a while with Mr. and Mrs.
Carl L. Johnson and daughters Mon-

A shadow of sadness again passed
over the community Friday when the
word was spread that Mitchell Sund-
berg had passed away. Altho Mitchell
belonged to the New Sweden church
he was a frequent visitor at our
church and community gatherings.
He served as auctioneer at our an-
nual sale for a few years. Always
cheerful and willing to do what he
could to help his neighbors and
friends. Mitchell will be missed in
the home, church and community.
Our heartfelt sympathy is extended
to the bereaved family.

CHRIST CENTERED CRUSADE
TAKES ON REVIVAL SPIRIT
The big Crusade at the Christian
Church continues to grow in enthu-
siasm and interest. Crowds packed
the church Saturday and there were
two conversions. The crusade is
growing into a revival spirit. There
have been conversions the last six
weeks.
Crowds are expected to outgrow:
the seating capacity of the church.
Folks are turning to God and a deep
spiritual current is evident in every
department of the church.
Bro. Jones messages in song are
thrilling every heart. The sermons
on following the footprints of Jesus
are awakening a new life and hope
within the entire church. Life is
taking on new meanings to the large
crowd attending.
We truly believe that all Elgin
will get a blessing as the outgrowth
of this spiritual crusade. Everyone
is urged to bring your family and
friends and be present Sunday in
Jesus’ name.
17 to 24 years of age, who are out
of school, are eligible to enroll.
Classes are held 1:06 to 5:00 p. m.

teresting and worthwhile.

ways glad to have visitors and visit-
ors are always glad they stopped in!
Some new tools have just been
added, among them a power saw and
a jointer. With these more types
of work can be done neater and
quicker. The shop has only the best
of tools, and more will be added
from time to time. The boys are do-
ing splendid work and getting experi-
ence of a wide scope in woodwork.
