RESULTS OP COUNTY INTER.
SCHOLASTIC LEAGUE TRACK
MEET
By E. Darby
The County Track Meet was run
off Friday morning by Coach Darby
and fifteen high school boys. Several
judges from out of the county were
here to aid in running off the meet.
Many of the schools that sent in
' entries failed to report Friday morn-
ing. Two letters were sent out to
each school with a schedule of the
events of the time of each event.
f These letters stating that the meet
would start promptly at nine o'clock.
Several schools were late causing de-
lay in starting the meet. The final
event being run off thirty minutes
late due to the late start.
Several loving cups were placed in
circulation this year which should
create more interest in our track
meets. The director is anxious for
all schools in the county to compete,
especially all schools who send in
entries.

One of the simplest of all em-
hriodery stitches consists of the so-
called blanket stitch which is nothing
more nor less than a deep buttonhole
stitch done coarsely so that the
material shows between the stitches.
It is so-named because it is a prac-
tical stitch to use in finishing off
blankets, in which case the work is
done with rather fine woolen jarn.
Hi is stitch maj also be used "a- a
finish tor the hem on fine linen or
•ilk lingerie or blouses. It is easier
for the beginner than a rolled hem
and just as effective. Merely fold
the edge of the material in a very
narrow hem and baste. Then fill the
needle with fine einbroiderv thread
and take your blanket stitches so that
each one goes over the entile hem,
giving a neat little row of stitches
running across the narrow hem.
Gne-two-three stitch is merely a
varié'ion of blanket stitch and we
suggest it to give an easy, effective
finish for o dress oí jersey or fine
wool. I se a fine quality of worsted
threaded in a coarse darning needle.
