ISAACSO N, .Administrator Fastnesa of Dye la Not Question of Color --------------------- D — It Is a common fallacy that green. lavender, or some other color is less fast than blue or pink. Fastness de pends on the chemical composition of the dye used, not on the color. Dyestuffs are grouped Into various • classes according to their composition, and the dyes In some classes are more fast than those In others. Thus a green, blue, or any other fabric may have received Its color from any one of a number of different dyestuffs vary Ing widely In permanency. Without knowing just what kind of a dye was used—and It Is pructlcally Impossible for the consumer to tell this—the fast ness of color In two fabrics cannot be predicted. A dye that Is one of the poorest of Its class may have been used on one of the fabrics, while the other may have been dyed with one of the best. Green, lavender, or any one color Is Just as fust as another if similar dyes are used. FOR SALE— CITY LOTS 2% lots, good location, best soil in town, fenced fo r garden, priced right.

Grimes, the battery and electric man, has a nice window dis play o f radio supplies. We have often wondered why worn pn wear necklaces. At last the secret Is out. Beauty specialists claim that they are onto the secret. They say that aside from the decorative value of neck chains, or strung beads or pearls and all other such ornaments, they are usually worn to lend charm to the physical qualities of the femi nine neck. They are not worn, In most cases, because they are orna ments. They are actually worn to make the homely neck appear beau tiful and the beautiful neck appear more beautiful. Moloch was the chief deity of the Ammonites, mentioned In 1 Kings 11:7, as the ‘'abomination of the children of Ammon." The worship of Moloch, which consisted chiefly In the sacrifice of human i ictints, was established In Jerusalem by Solomon and abolished by Jostah.
