Bven a generation ago it didn’t make much difference whether a woman had shapely Umbm' The reason was they couldn’t be seen because of the prevail- iiiK modes of drua. ’ But today it to different! True, there is quite a war on between two feminine factions over short skirt*, llmse who are for brevity have two good reasons, and. It might be added, those who want more material in the skirt also Lave two reasons and both are pretty much alike. If Paris says, “Short skirts this season, girls,” those with the two good reasons display two Inches more of them just by way of being emphatic. And If Paris says, "Long skirts thia season, girls," the order to ignored and trim figures defy the great designers and modistes. Why short skirts should be worn to ably demonstrated in Monta Bell’s “Pretty Ladies," Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production shown at the Rialto theatre Bumtoy. There to a chorus of more than 30 girls in this film, all with beautiful legs and triin, slender ankles. These girls were chosen from more than 200 applicants who applied at the easting director’s office for the jobs of chorus girls, but only those with perfectly formed legs were chosen. One look at these girls In their chorus girls' short costumes and you have the reason for the Paris decree of "short skirts.” ZaSu Pitts and Tom Moore play the leading roles in this production, and have for their snpportlng cast such well known people us Ann Pennington In one of her own dance numbers, Lil ian Tashman, Bernard Randall, Hel ena D'Algy, Conrad Nagel, George K.

Í SURAL CARRIERS ' TAKE BIG CENSUS Since there to mlsnnitorsHniHhg ou ths part of some farmers in thia local ity as to the usefulness of the Inform« tlou as to liog production and crop acreages, obtained from the cards dis tributed by the rural mall carrier« Postmaster Johnson has requested the Glacier to publish the fegpwto« atato ment furnished him bf the Unite.« States Department of Agriculture. These surveys are made with the help of the rural carriers, who either distribute the cards to a certain num ber of farmers along their route», with the request that these be filled out, or the carrier fill* out the cards himself by Interviewing the farmer. The car rier to instructed to get informati. n from farms which will give a good average picture or sample of farms on liis route, preferably by taking all of the farms along a part of bto route, big and little, good and poor, owued and rented. It a fair sample of all farms to re turned in each state, figures for these I farms should show the same change« as all farms. It to impossible to take an tytual census enumeration of all farms each year, so changes in produc tion and acreage must be eMlmated from samples. The nearer these sam ples are to being exact, the more cor rect will be the estimate». The need and value of such informa tion for individual farmers and agri culture In general hardly need be stressed. Without dependable informa tion as to actual production and trends of production both of livestock and cro|»s more balanced production ami better market distribution at« impos sible. The Department of Agriculture to the best qualified agency to undertake such work, but the accuracy of Its estimates depends upon the accuracy of the returns made by farmers. The beneficial effects that sue!« in formation may have upon price la shown by the level of hog prices dur ing the winter of 1924-25 compared to the previous winter. The pig surveys of June and December, 1924, showed a derided decrease In hog production in 1924 compared to 1928. Marketing«, however, during the winter from the 1924 crop were almost as large a« the previous winter, and In December and January were the bigbeat on record. In spite of these heavy inarkrtings, hog prices were from $2 to $3 per hun dred higher than during the winter lie- fore. The heavy marketings were right ly Interpreted a« being an early mar keting of a smaller number of hogs caused by a short corn crop and not as indicating a correspondingly larger number of hogs. But unless these estimates can be kept dependable the trade will disre gard them and will be guided either by private estimate« or by actual mar ketings as these take place. Therefore, every farmer should help to make these reports accurate by making the report for his own farm complete.

All of a sudden the ¡«eaceful scene was disrupted by a piercing shriek. There was a frantic scrambling in the vines covering the pergola, a sound of ripping cloth and splintering lattice work, followed by another shriek and a tremendous splash In the pond beside the little summer house. Actors, di rector, cameramen and helpers ruflied to the shore of the pond, and arrived just in time to see a very wet/muddy and iH-draggled figure emerge. “Bebe!" shouted Director Frank Tut tle In amazement. “What the deuce did you do that for?
