With firm indications that this waa 10 be a suit-spring, couturiers turned i ineir auention lo individual-. iug the suit mode. The results have been more I than gratifying to the woman who I demands styles suitable to her and perhaps to her alone. There is real diversity in suits today. One can have a whole wardrobe of suits and no two will be alike, either in fabric, cut or feel. Three special divisions of the spring' suit have been developed, all featuring the short jacket which ajways is so youthful look ing. Blouses Tuck-in First, and newest, is the short jacket suit with separte blouse of the tuck-in variety. This type of suit makes much of the nip yoke and belts of the skirts and the blouse is more apt to be off white satin or plain colored silk, batiste or. organdie than to be fig ured. Second, there Is the jacket suit that makes its coal with feminine touches such as scarf effects and belts and uses overblousea the same pattern as the coat's lining. This is really the ensemble of last year gone youthful, with a short jacket instead of a long coat. Third, and this type is having Increasing importance in warm weather, there 1b the jacket dress, the little suit composed of a frock and contrasting jacket to top it. Blue and Blue The navy blue tailoied suit with tuck-in blouse leads in popularity hub year, wavy blue always li: h had a popularity envied by an other colors for serviceability. Whether of flat crepe, crepe de chine, faille, satin or roughtsh silk, the navy blue silk tailored suit stands a chance of being the favored summer costume' for trav el, everyday wear and for infor mal afternoon things. One navy blue faille suit I made has a powder blue flat crepe blouse with a novel little double Jabot effect, flaring on either side of a fitted neckpiece of the suit's faille. The suit's skirt fits smarts around the hips, by menus of a shaped yoke. From the side front double box pleats flare after hlp- Ladies' Handicap Match Is Event of Thursday One of the most Interesting events of the season at the Country club was held on Thursday at the regular ladles' day att'air.

Brand Wo havo been talking about back yards and flower gardens so fur this summer. Roseburg la full of enthusiastic gardeners. We huve congratulated ourselves that conditions hero wero extraordin arily favorable to tho growing of flowers, and perhaps we have be come a little chesty over it and need a corrective. There la one coming. Let us get at It 111:3 way. If you had a frieud coming to visit you from another city and you were especially anxious to have the town make a favorable impression on him, which street would you choose for a short drive? Take the car and pick otit the street tonight. Try to think of your self as a stranger seeing the town for tho first time. You will try one street. It won't do. Then an other ond another. None of them will do, and you will bo surpris ed and disappointed, in despera tion you will head across the bridge to Laurelwood or up the hill to some place where there are no purging strips next to the street. Parking strips are all right hut they certainly are the weak point in Itoschurg's personal appear ance. The parkings aro what the tourist sees and what we see so often that finally we do not see them at all which Is a mercy. Our yards aro beautiful, and our gardens and flowers, but our park ings are an eye-sore. Not all of them of course, but a large propor tion of them. Sometimes the truth has to be told and this is one of them. The parkings that aro well kept are In such disreputable com pany that their effect is lost. So let's not kid ourselves about being the city beautiful. We are going to be. but the stranger who looks at our parkings would never guess it. Ti majority of the roses in our parkings are gaunt, half-starred and neglected. They are sur rounded by stunted, dried up wcwls and grass. The Inevitable Impression upon a stranger Is of poverty, a slovenly people and a town that has seen its best days. I hope some Indignant reader of this who thinks the iudictmem is not fair will gird on bis pencil and notebook and sally forth to walk lo and fro iu our ton and to go up and down in It, making notes. I have nude a careful count of five of our principle strevis with i;lia r,uil. Th(,re wero 1(7 parkings that were In lawn, some of them only by cour tesy called. Ht b, ., means get this: Thcrr werj? Xi parkinc UiLere just dls-eiiiit .Mi,- J J and tall, dead grass-a few suffer- ing rose bushes scattered through them. Theie were 36 that had a regular planting of roses, soma of them realty beautiful. There were miscellaneous flowers of varying hsights end degrees of dilapidation and there were veg etables. Including the veil-known and highly esteemed Irish potato. But why go on? This is what our visitors see. No two neighbors seem to have the same idea about what to do with the parkings, and the effect is about as pleasing as if the members ' of your choir should rise en macse next Sunday at church and all sing at the tops of their voices, but each a differ ent hymn. Fine looking, attractive resi dence streets do not just happen. They have to be planned. If thcro is no city planning commis sion some other authority must do it. Two or three points on what to do with the parkings and then the writer of this eulogy will go into seclusion till public indignation against him has somewhat subsid ed. First, each town has its own problem. There is no correct an swer for them all. Salem with Its broad streets baa one problem. Roseburg with its narrow streets and enclosing hills has another It is to overcome th feeling of narrowness and disorder that her streets give. Thikd, any planting except plain lawn increases the impression of nnrrowness. Fourth, concerning roses. Unless they have constant care roses planted in the parkings are out of season most of the summer are are about as beautiful as chickens that ar'v moulting. They ar esad birds. Above all. be sure that the park ing problem cannot be solved by each property owner using his ow n Ideas and Ingenuity. That is all right inside the yard, but in the parkings, no. The street must be planned as a whole. ' Tomorrow old residents of Ne braska will gather at Corvallis for the sixth annual Nebraska picnic. The picnic Is to be held at the Corvallis auto park and Nebras kans from all over the state will enjoy the day and reunion. & & Mrs. Foster Butner and her daughter, Miss Frances, left Thurs day for Seattle to be guests of their son and brother and his fami ly. HOME POINTERS Left over roast meat, finely ground and mixed with a . little horse radish or chopped pickles and mayonnaise, makes a good sandwich filling. Butter icing for cup cakos cookies Is made by creaming on. half cup of butter and adding gradually, sifted confectioneia' su gar. Add 2 or 3 tablespoousl'ul of strong coffee and one-half teaspoon of vanilla for flavor a few dr-jps at a time when creaming. To vary eggs as a sandwich fill ing, add deviled ham and a little cream to chopped hard-boiled eggs. if raisins are placed in a warm oven for a few minutes to malrc them plump anil dredged Willi flour before adding to cake or cooky batter they will be less likely to sink. Macaroni is usually broken Into pieces an inch In legth and cook edwithout blanching In rapidly boiling water. When tender drain and rinse in cold water, then drain again. The cold water wash es away the pastry exterior that would otherwise cause the pieces to stick together. Rice is beat cooked in like manner. If milk Is kept in a large shallJ pan instead of a deep one, It w ill remain sweet much longer. The delicate flavor will he brought out in salt fish if it Is soaked in sour milk before cook- ing.
