This anow Is expected to melt rap Idly. The big park snow plow, the Snogo ,had cleared away this forenoon from the Medford entrance to Anna Spring camp the snow which late yesterday had blocked traffic m both direc tions, and also the snow between Anna Springs camp and the rim. The Bulldozer snow plow early this forenoon left for the rim to shove a path thru the deep snow there, ef forts of a road crew to Drmg the ma chinery out from the Crook camp a mile or so west of the lodge being unavailing yesterday. A number of cars of sightseers, not equipped with chains and shovels, enroute to see the lake yesterday were not able to negotiate the snow snd had to turn back or stay where they were until the road waa cleared today. Some of these care and oth ers were parked at Prospect yesterday afternoon and lost night awaiting word that the park entrance road had been cleared.

FISSTrW)UR C&OJ, snmmrmmm uza IN THE- MODERN gOME ttlngs go together and some do not TEe dress you wear for shopping is not the dress that you wear for a formal dinner. The furs that are so appropriate in December would be sadly out of place at a June garden party. The same thing is true of salads and salad dressings. So many different foods come to our tables as salads, no one dressing can do for all of them. There is a different kind of salad for each occasion and an appropriate dressing for each dif ferent salad. Miss Mary B. Murray has written a little book on appropriate salad service which contains the answers to many of your questions as to the proper; selection and servioe of salads. In her book, Miss Murray lays stress on one-thing- It is this: Don't smother the flavors of all your different salads under a blanket of thick! dressing like mayonnaise. For whue mayonnaise is; appropriate for some salads, it is not at all appro priate for others. Mix a dressing appropriate id toe salad. ' We will fee glad to send you Miss Murray book with our compliments. It is a book you will want to keep in a handy place where you can al ways find it whenever a question of salad selectiori or service arises.
