Swanger and grand daughter made a trip to La Grande Monday to consult a doctor. Dick Wicks, of La Grande, came up (three colored things look much bet ter in tho shop windows and are in You can't always tell by the way they're dressed. The longest crepe veil doesn't make the mournfulest widow nor the whitest satin the hap piest bride. I know a German rooming house keeper in New York who is very pro Prussian yet her house flies one of the largest American flags in the vi cinity. Her roomers clubbed together and bought it and sho didn't dare re fuse them permission to hang it from her brown stone front. All the shop windows are full of patriotic apparel these days. To top the list are parasols made of red, white and blue ribbons, some radiat ing from the center, while on others the ribbon stripes run around. One blue parasol is sprinkled with silver stars and has a red, white and blue border. White parasols are embroid ered with red, white and blue stars or bordered in the tri-color. Parasols like these are bound to attract rather than keep off nntive suns. Next are the patriotic bonnets. A sailor has a brim of red, white and blue grcs grain ribbons radiating from the white straw crown and in front is a cluster of large blue stars cut out of silk. A broad brim white straw hat has tiny flags embroidered in yarn around it's crown while an other shows yarn stars of red, and blue. . A close turban of red, white and blue straw has an enormous pompom or the three colors set at a perky an glo in front and another lovely white straw garden nat has a wreath of popies, daisies and corn flowers. Then there ctb boas of tri-color, pleated maline collar and cuff sets of silk and lenen banded in red, white and blue, hnndkerchicfs bordered in the same and even white kid and silk gloves with red, white and blue stitch ing. L-oncens in patriotic purses are legion and legion also are those fair ones who are e.-gcr to carry the col ors when thus embodied in a bag. Some are mndo of alternating strips of rod, white and bluo ribbon finished with a tassel of red, white and blue, Others are crocheted of silks in the three colors or even beaded in stripes or designs of flags and stars. White lonther handbags have flags embossed or stamped 'in colors on their sides and white moire or faille bags have the Hags embroidered or beaded on them. There are red, white and blue striped sport shirts and red, white and blue striped sweaters and every feminine frill and furbelow in the three colors that you can mention. iBctwecn you and me, however, these A. .j. .j. .j. j. .. . 4. .j. .j. 4 I f I Hv '1 I r ' I 4t v J I l ' ffrWw. 1 "I ?AWI I ft I w'mTKAlh if Thursday to take the place of master- mechanic.

You don't hnvo to get yourself up like an American flag and make a noise like an American eagle to show you have tho best interests of your country at heart during this time of stress and war. If you really feel that clothes make the man or in this case the woman, if you are convinced there is a psycho logical connection between your in most emotions and your outward ap parel, then invest in one of the tiny (lag pins. Its a big enough budge and incidentally you will be helping tho allies since all the Italian fruit venders are putting their money in and are peddling war emblems these days instead of bananas. Other wise if you re:iliy want to help your country don't dress the part but act it. Carry a hoe instead of a red, white and blue parasol and wear a red cross instead of a red, white and blue hat.
