THE MORNING OREGONIAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 1921. 13 BOOK AGENT HELD F ID 1 pond with and sleeve. !8 Federal Grand Jury Indicts Nicholas L. Cogan. USE OF MAILS ALLEGED Salcman Said to Ilave Failed to Deliver Sets Sold to Oreogon and Idaho Men. Book agents of the old days, who could sell anything with leaves and cover, have been displaced by a new order, who even omit the formality of delivering: the article at all, ac cording to the findings of the federal grand Jury. Nicholas L. Cofran was arrested yesterday In San Francisco on a federal warrant, according to word received here, on a charge of lusinir the mails to defraud. A secret Indictment was Drought gainst Cogan on the charge that he had collected hundreds of dollars from "victims" throughout the northwest through orders for a collection of tooks. Seventeen business and pro fessional men In Oregon and Idaho ire Included in the number who com plained that they paid Cogan. sums ranging from $25 to $70 for sets of fcooks tbat he failed to deliver. History la Sold. Coran posed ss a representative of ne "Syndicate I'resa association- ana lwa selling a "Library of American Ulstorv." accordin? to Hall S. t,URK assistant United States attorney. He collected the purchase price In full. plus delivery charges, or tooK a sud- tantial deposit at the time tne oraer was taken, it was said. The selling talk of the agent was to the effect that the price was a mere fraction of the cost, but was an introduction price, and each purchaser was to fur nish a testimonial of the works alter lis had inspected them. Portland Men Buy. Coran operated in Portland, the In- dlctment charged, and carried on fre quent correspondence with purchasers who had become Impatient over the delay In delivery. Some were said to have threatened prosecution and to have protested about the delay of ets that should have been In their hands by Christmas, but were months overdue. The sales took place be tween March, 1920, and early in the present year. Included In the list of men' whom Cogan was charged with defrauding are: J. W. Vogan, Portland; Dr. Ed ward Labbe, Portland: A. C. Emmons Tortland; N. A. Leach, Portland; J. O. Watts, Mountain Home, Idaho; Dr. O P. Hamilton, Mountain Home, Idaho; Dr. C. F. Schlitx, American Falls. Ida ho; W. O. Chapman, Twin Falls, Idaho; Dr. C. W. Dill, Shoshone, Idaho, and H. A. Baker, Rupert Idaho. Doc tors and lawyers were the principal buyers. Merchant la Arrested. Elwood L. Clark, merchant of La Pine, Or., and Burton Oney, formerly a forestry service employe, are now it liberty under bonds of $1000 and (600, respectively, on a charge of con spiracy to defraud the government. Both were arrested after a secret in dictment was returned against them ty the federal grand jury recently. Clark and Oney wer alleged to have attempted to defraud the gov ernment by means of a padded ex pense account. Clark 1b a prominent eastern Oregon merchant and busi ness man and has held civic offices in .Vale and La Pine. ruKTLAND, Sept. 28. Dear m r, Richet: I bave a white walit like sample I made with round nuclt- not Virv low. fin- TA I'hed with plcot edge. The bottom has,!; been cut away, leavlnc It plain; 13i4 inch . -f front from th hollow In In throat, mak- 1 A Ins it three inches below waltllne: 10 Inche middla of back. Has a long- set-In sleeve made sort of bell-ihaped at bot tom: opens on each shoulder; pulls on over ead. Will you suggest bow to make over this walat so I can wear it? I thought of fringe or band of silk or sash I don't know what. Will leave it to your Judgment, loll me what color to uae with il. My description en other heet. I have a soft silk drens, like sampie enclosed. Skirt Is one yard and 20 Inches around bottom; top slightly gathered and 88 Inches long. Walat plain In back with high neck; front hu alight V In neck and slight surplice on left front; sleeves of green georgette with folds of silk for cuff; set-In on under waist; has crushed belt six Inches wide. Please suggest, how to make this over Into a dresi. what material and color to use and trimmings, if needed. I am 38 bust, 5 feet 2 Vi inches tall, waist 31), short neck, 40 yoars old, dark hair and quite fair. How many yards of material will it take? Thanking you, MRS. N. K. J., 82d fcL. Mrs. N. K. J., Eighty-second street: Tour waist having stripes would not i be as tastily trimmed with bands as with fringe of the same shade, about three inches In depth, the edge of which would be very effective fin ished in black chenille run in and out of margin. Cut your sleeve to below elbow, giving it all you can of the wide effect, and edge with fringe, also neck line. If your waist seems too plain, why not combine with plain georgette crepe set in panel effect, upon which have a dainty design run in black ruffles? This would be very effective. I -would advise keeping the "slip-over," using small black vel vet buttons and hooks of black silk made of nufloss. This will give an added touch and a pretty shoulder trim. Your green silk Is too narrow to use even as the drop skirt and so I advise that you combine with serge of same shade or hue and use your silk ae overtrimming on the serge skirt. Have your sleeves and waist sides of serge and a panel back and front of your silk, the front panel being cut in one with girdle and forming the. now popular long waist line. Work the taffeta with band touches done in black rlbbonette or nufloss. A serge collar about three Inches wide extending rather far down, trimmed and edged in hand work would be good form. Have nitric round In back, eouare in front. Four canels of taffeta over a skirt of serge and embroidered to matcn tne waist would complete a pracucaDie and wearable dress.

Please advlwe what to use with this material to brighten St a little and how to make. Verr respect- fully, MRS. L. B. U. RS. L. B. O., Dallas, Or.: Lack of space in this department has made it impossible to give you an earlier reply and I trust this column will still be of service. Tour broad cloth combined with matelasse would aive the added touch of brightness you desire and also make a most at tractive frock. Have your skirt, cuffs and rather deep girdle of matelasse and tunic, bodice and upper sleeve of Droaacioth a plain oval neck line in front and round in back. The tunic I (have in mind for your gown is rather apron like in front, but lengthens to a point at either side. Should you prefer to have your entire gown of broadcloth have the long-walsted bodice Joined to a rather straight, full eklrt, having handwork at the edge of waist, wide sleeves and neck line. Tour embroidery done In Persian shades or Just one color such as raprlka, with black veil beads "caught" among the stitches, would fee very atractive. The skirt should "have a band of handwork to corre- BY LILLIAN TINGLE. ERE are some recipes for eour milk griddle cakes. These are easier to make with sour milk than biscuits are. because usually the amount of m'lk needed to give the right consistency will be Just about right to neutralize the amount of soda needed for leavening. Sour milk griddle cakes (plain) One and one-fourth cupa flour, one fourth teaspoon salt, one-half (level) teaspoon soda, one egg, one cud well soured milk, one tablespoon shorten ing (optional). Sift the dry ingre dients together, etlr smooth gradually (but quickly) with the egg yolk and milk mixed together and fold In the melted shortening and stiff-beaten egg white. Bake on an evenly heated griddle. If desired, add one table spoon sugar to improve flavor and brownlnc. The exact amount of flour varies a ittle. You need to learn how to Judge Just the right thickness of batter, and sometimes it is necessary to 'scant the wetting slightly. If you have a spoonful or two of sour cream with the milk, the short ening may "be omitted or "scanted,' according to the richness and quan tity of the cream. The above is small family' quantity that can easily be doubled or trebled. If you have only oneihalf cup sour milk on hand, use it and make up the wettlnff with water or sweet milk. taking either one-fourth teaspoon soda and one teaspoon baking powder or one-half teaspoon soda with one half teaspoon cream of tartar, as may be most convenient. If you bave only one-fourth cup sour milk, make up the amount of wetting with sweet milk or water and use one-eighth teaspoon soda with one and one-half level teaspoon bak lng powder or one-thalf teaspoon soda with three-fourths teaspoon cream of tartar. ' If you have also a few sifted bread or biscuit crumbs that you want to utilize, you can try the following: "Bread crumb griddle cakee One cup sifted crumbs (not too dry; use less if "bone dry"); one-half cup flour, one cup thick well-soured milk, one half egg, well beaten; (you may be using the other part of the egg to egg and crumb fish, or chops, or croquette "for two"); one-half teaspoon soda, one-fourth teaspoon salt, one table spoon sugar (optional). Mix and use as above. May also be similarly mod ified if less sour milk is available. Citizenship Papers Granted. PRINEVILLE, Or., Oct, 12. (Spe cial.)
