For the girl on the park bench had only just Bat down. In her hand she held a copy of the day's Tidings. I am sure she had not looked it over before. Did she read the front page carefully? She did not. Did she find the social column and pore over it? She did not. She gave the head ings a quick glance, opened the paper with a flirt, folded it inside out, fold ed it again, and concentrated upon some one item. She sat there, not ten feet away, utterly oblivious to my presence, humming a little contented something to herself, and drawing wriggly lines around the article which had fascinated her. Then she rose, dropped the paper and hurried off toward town. Poor mortal I. There was no re sisting the temptation to see what had so Interested her. I picked up the Tidings, and found, encircled by a large quantity of futuristic snakes in pencil line, an announcement of McGee and Hargrove's spring open ing. There was a statement that re- I Arrow Arrow collar Style-Wfe will ehow the R oat APRIL 14 In two heights AshbySU Lexicon CLUETT. PEABODV&COAc TVoyNY freshments would be served. But I am sure that girl had not thought of that. She had not looked hungry. Several days passed before I went to McGee and Hargrove's. When I did, however, I made a point of ask ing point-blank what proved the great drawing card for their women cus tomers. "Well," said Mr. McGee with a smile, "It is possible that certain special services which we have sup plied are appreciated. For Instance, we have Mrs. Wallister at the head of our alteration department. As we make a specialty of our ready-to-wear stock, and aim to keep it up to the minute in style, a good alteration de partment is a necessity. We can say, too, that we have been able to give perfect satisfaction in that line. We have also the services of a graduate corsetiere." I asked about the specialties of the new spring showing. "We are featuring the new sport coats," said Mr. McGee, "and we have been able to present a splendid stock of silks and dress goods in the latest designs." "Then the Ashland woman need not go to the out-of-town firm for the more elaborate needs of her ward robe," I remarked. "Exactly. And, Incidentally, you might be interested to know that we were the original agents in southern Oregon for the Pictorial Review pat terns,, which are now deservedly among the most popular on the mar ket." As I passed from McGee's to Har grove's, I noticed the pleasing appear ance of the two stores, wIch occupy twin sections of a large open floor space. The convenient low shelf sys tem has been used throughout, and the decorations are most tasteful. Preparedness is the magic word of today.

And not the least of these is the pre paredness for the Eastern season which in its turn is supposed to pre pare the milliner for a trip abroad, and pater familias for the bankruptcy court. I found that the Hargrove mil linery will be exceptionally well pre pared for this carnlal of color and style. Already the new shapes are arriving whole flower gardens in full bloom, some of them, chic and dainty, though, in line and coloring. Period hats, too, claim their share of admiration, some of them being ex quisite In variety of trimming effects. And, by the way, you must see the veritable wilderness of new ribbon bows, of shapes and colors Indescrib able. For the woman who can wear them, the large picture hats have come again Into their own, while for her sister of athletic and open-air tastes a whole regiment of sport hats, gay in daring stripes and splashes of vivid color, Is now on display. One must not forget to mention the new colors which enter into the gar ments and millinery of the haut monde throughout the country. A new old-rose (does that sound para doxical.), citron, several odd shades of green, and daring combinations of black and white are finding wide fa vor with the fair sex for this sea son's wear. Many New Cars In Jackson County More new automobiles were regis tered from Jackson county from Jan uary 1 to March 1 than from any other county in the state with the exception of Marion and Multnomah. Sixty-one cars were registered In the first two months this year which were not registered last year. In the first two months and a half of 1915 only thirty-seven cars were regis tered which had not borne 1914 licenses. Nine hundred and seventy three cars were registered up to March 1 this year in Jackson county, as against a total of about 20,000 in the Btate. March is proving to be a good month for the automobile sales man with many sales reported. "My!

Papers, Cordwood, factory Block Wood Northwest Fruit Men Co-Operate The fruitgrowers of the Ashland district are receiving with favor the central agency plan which was out lined by C. E. Eassett of the Bureau of Markets upon the occasion of his recent visit to Ashland. The local fruit association will become a mem ber of the Fruitgrowers' Agency, In corporated, which was recently or ganized. Organization of the Incorporated agency was made at Spokane recently, tho following officers being elected: Trustees: Yakima, C. H. Swlgnit and E. V. Ross; Wenatchee, J. D. Adams and Conrad Hose; Montana, W. M. Sackott; Hood Itiver, Wllmer Sieg; Spokane, P. H. Parks; western Ore gon, B. W. Johnson; southern Idaho, n. Ingard; Walla Walla, Paul II. Weyrauch; at large, W. F. Gwin. The government representatives called the Spokane meeting after a complete survey of the field, begin ning In North Yakima and ending in the territory south of Portland. The plan has been rocelvod with favor everywhere. Including Wennt clice, where the first word was that the growers had rejected the agency, but recent reports say that 70 per cent of the tonnage of the Wenatchee district Is now pledged to the plan. Spokane, Walla Walla and tho Oregon districts have Indorsed It, and it only remains for the government repre sentatives to help perfect the Fruit growers' Agency and then lend their aid to the marketing situation for the coming season. In view of the general sentiment that has been evidenced throughout the northwest by the growers In favor of the proposed uniform contract, It Is believed that It will be almost unanimously adopted. The officers elected at last week's meeting, in conjunction with the government ex perts, will then supervise the execu tion of the plans. Ten Bills Ready For Nov. Ballot Three proposed constitutional amendments referred by the 1915 legislature to the people will be voted upon at the general election In No vember, and six initiative petitions are now being circulated In the stnte for measures to go on the ballots.
