TAG DAY FOR MORE
BOOKS FOR CHILDREN
In order to form some plan to secure
more and better books for children in
the library, delegates from the Willam
ette, Bolton, West Side, Mt. Pleasant,
McLoughlin, Barclay, Easthain, Ore
gon City high, Gladstone, and Cane
mah schools met Saturday afternoon
and decided to hold a tag day Decem
ber 24.
The need of more children's books
has been felt for some time in the li
brary, but this is one of the first con
centrated efforts to increase this de
partment. The number of books which
will probably be gained has not beeu
estimated but it is thought that a sub
stantial addition will be made.

A GENEROUS USE OF FUR
MARKS THE MODISH SUiT
It is quite In keeping that the Rus-
elan blouse should be trimmed with
fur. The popularity of fur for trim
ming has reached a point where its
appropriateness to the season and its
comfort are no longer considered, but it
is favored for its becomingness alone.
We find it outlining the throat and
wrists on the filmiest blouse and edg
ing the tunic of the chiffon dancing
frock as well as trimming the suit for
out of doors and the evening mantle,
In 7907 dull green velveteen is ef
fectively trimmed with fitch, which ia
one of the most favored pelts this
winter. The fur buttons are novel and
extremely chic. A girdle of dull
bronze satin Is another effective touch.
This model may be copied In size 16
With 4 yards of 42 Inch material.
For many seasons we have had noth-
than the sports coat. These are made
of the softest and wooliest of the new
coating materials and, as a rule, are
very light weight, which is an added
virtue, as a heavy coat is a thing to be
avoided by the woman or girl who in
dulges in out of door, winter sports.
In 8130 we note the effectiveness of
the raglan sleeve, a smart stitched
belt and the large patch pockets.
This design was made up in a waffle
check in black and white.
The skirt is a three piece model in
white serge. '
It requires 3 yards of 42 inch coat
ing to make this coat in size 36.
The skirt (7942) may be made In size
18 with 2 yards of 42 inch material.

Receipts for the week at Portland
Stock yards have been: Cattle 695,
calves 15, hogs 3766, Sheep 5133.
A natural apathy was apparent In
the cattle market this week, following
the big stock show, when exceptional
ly heavy shipments were made. Cat
tle prices suffered severe slump, top
quality going at "85 , .cents lower and
other grades at even more of a de
cline. Killers had supplied their
needs temporarily and will have to
work off the surplus, but as liquida
te nwill be light for the next few
months the situation is expected to im
prove this next week. .
- The hog market dropped off 10
cents during the week, with extreme
top at $7.85 for the week's close for
choice stuff, with heavy stock 10 to 15
cents down. Liberal liquidation in
creases the seasonable weakness.
I. The sheep house business held up
well for the week. Some choice mut
ton and lambs were marketed. Lambs
moved easily at $6.25 and prime weth
ers held their own at $5.00, while ewes
closed around $4.00 when choice stuff
