Cause furriners in furrin parts Wear furs in summer time Our summer girls still keep it up Sans reason and sans rhyme. New York, June 10. If you have a little mole on your shoulders then this summer you will be quite the thing. Also ermine or kolinsky shoulders arc more to be desired than bare shoulders, even if the bare shoulders be bear shoulders. In plain words the summer girl prt furs furs on her shoulders even to wings. Like the snows of yesterday the snowy white foxes of last summer have " vanished to give place to flat capes of unspotted ermine combined with moleskin, entire cape collars of kolinsky, all mole ones or all ermine ones. They are very quaint, old-fashioned and bewitching so what matter if they be a bit uncomfortable when the ther mometer, which is no respecter of furry fashions, begins to climb. One lovely model of moleskin, shaped like a little triangular shawl, is edged with fringe of chenille and in fact all these little fur shoulder capes put more, things on edge than teeth. A wide, straight piece of kolinsky that folds stiffly around the should ers as if it were made of card board, fastens in front with two gorgeously enameled buttons and is edped in a fold of chiffon. Vt annfliai. nf mnl. mi l-iL-r. can.! I circle is finished with a tiny quilling iof taupe satin and another of unspot ted ermine is edged in lovely white scollops of itself. A stunning semi circular cape of moleslfin has a wide collar of ermine scalloped on the edge and a taupe ribbon ties in front that end in cunning 'ball pompoms of the mole. PICNIC ENJOYED Perry Children and Parents Have an Outing Perry. Ore., June 16. Sunday, the 11th, the Perry Union Sunday school children, together with their parents enjoyed the annual picnic which the local organization gives each year in June. One hundred thirty sat down at noon in the shade of the cottonwood trees in Postmaster Lewis' grove, a half mile from Hi)gard, and ate the splendid lunch, which everybody had contributed. The affair had been care fully planned by the superintendent !and officers of the school, and after i lunch all the children hnd an oppor tunity to race and play in various contests. The children and parents were taken to and from the picnic 'grounds, a distance of eight miles, in autos, Messrs. David tieddes, Peter , Rogenson, Fred Borneman, W. W. rioluen, and B. Donovan, very kind ly donated their machines for the use of the school. All the cars made two trips, and some three, to and from the grounds. The children enjoyed this special feature immensely, although as many as eighteen small children were crowded into some of the cars. Swings were put up in the grove, and after nearly everyone on tjhe grounds competing in the games played, the crowd was returned to Perry, everyone claiming they had a great time, and one to be remembered. On invitation, Miss Ada Roush, the La Grande photographer, accompanied the crowd, and "snapped" several pic tures, in typical picnic fashion. Some of the children are now inquiring when the next picnic will be held, another year. It was an eventful day for the Perrp people, and especially the chil dren.
