Today ostriches arc a million dollar business in the Union of South Africa. Breeders and merchants there believe that the business may double if mar kets for feathers and skin are, developed in the United States. At present 80 percent of the feathers and most of the skins are sold here where once the big buyers of these fathers were England and France. j Fashion has determined the ups and downs of the industry in the past.; In the early 1900s world fashions favored ostrich fea thers for hats, boas, fans and other costume decorations. Sale of the feathers averaged more than $7,000,000 a year from 1903 to 1913. Well over a million pounds of feathers were exported in 1913. The number of domesticated birds in privately owned herds was estimated at about 700,000. After the first world war, ostrich plumes went out of style and the industry suffered accordingly. Many of the birds were killed off for meat A feather cooperative attempting to revive the business in; 1924 succeeded only in marketing to manufacturers, of feather dusters for a few years. By 1945 only about 14,000 of the big birds were left in South Africa. Then the Queen's plumed hats and studies on uses for ostrich skin started the revival. Ostrich skins are tough and do not stretch so may be used for women's shoes, fancy handbags and luggage. Last year the number of birds had increased to 40,000, and. production of feathers and skins was estimated at well over a million dollars. , A Bridal Showier Mrs. Melvin Johnson and Miss Helen Johnson were hostesses for a bridal shower in honor of Miss Velora Williams who will be mar ried Sunday.-: at their Cottage street home Tuesday.

If the family likes to cook dinner over the fire, a practical way is for each person to have one of the mess kits, available at the war sur plus stories. These kits are an oval shaped skillet made with handle and tight fitting lid. They are inexpensive, and each member cooks and eats his own food in the kit. We like to scramble eggs along side of potatoes which have been previously cooked in the kit. Ba con, pork sausages, hamburgers or any other meat to be fried, is a practical food to cook in the kit One favorite food in the old camping days was link sausages, cooked until half done, then ban anas added and the lid put on. The bananas should be done about the same time the sausages. Shake the pan occasionally to cook saus age and bananas on all sides.
