FOR THE MORNING SUIT
A becoming tailored hat for
morning wear is given as a mil
linery suggestion today. This is
of natural colored Milan straw
with high conical crown and be
comingly rolled brim and sets well
down on the head. Around the
crown is a strip of two inch ol
ive green velvet ribbon, while on
the right is a novelty aigrette . in
green and white. These aigr
ettes which are short and square
and lie flat to the hat, have at
tained a great popularity in the
season's millinery. They are in
tended for wear on the tailored
hats, having a crisp, neat smart
ness which is very fetching.

The Island of Rhodes.
Rhodes was the center of the culture
and commerce of the Aegean in the
days when the Aegean meant the heart
of civilization and the island was the
battleground of mighty armadas and
formidable legions from the days of
Alexander the Great to Mohammed.
The Island is the most easterly of the
Aegean group. It is about forty-five
miles long by about twenty -two wide.
The island has been famous for its
beautiful climate from the earliest
ages.
Good Anyhow.
Norman McLeod was once preaching
In a district in Ayrshire, where the
reading of a sermon Is regarded as the
greatest fault of which the minister
caD be guilty. When the congregation
dispersed an old woman, overflowing
with enthusiasm, addressed her neigh
bor: "Did ye ever hear onythlng sae
gran'? Wasna that a sermon?"
All her expressions of admiration be
ing met by a stolid glance, she shout

sermon?"
"He read it," Raid the other.
To which she replied with indignant
emphasis, "I wadna care if he had

WEAKER FEELING
SHOWN IN
There is a weaker feeling all
through the local potato market
and prices are lower. Both old
and new growth are showing the
weakness, but in the old crop
pressure is greatest.
'Sales of good old potatoes are
now being made in limited lots
generally around $1 1.10 per
ceiital, but some poor to ordi
nary offerings are going down to
85c. -
Continued offering of old pota
toes is show in trade and there
is a noticeable decrease in the de
mand daily. At the present lime
the call is so limited that buyers
are not inclined to purchase at
any price from country interests.
At this time there is more than a
sufficient amount of stock to fill
all the wants of the trade.
Even the best California new
stock is not being quoted above 2c
a pound today. This is for south
ern California stuff being made
down to 1 -and one-half cents in
many instances.
Local new potatoes are coming
forward in larger supply and
there is quite a noticeable in
crease in the quality. Sizes are
better and in most instances are,
equal, if not better, than that re
ceived from the Sacramento sec
tion. '

sirable variation is seen from the
more common plan of a corpora
tion's renting to its employes
houses it has built, retaining the
ownership in its own hands.
On either plan the physical ad
vantages of space to live and
breathe for the worker and his
family can be attained, at probab
ly not a widely different cost to
him. But the Oregon City quar

own. It is his own house that
he improves. When he cleans up
