AND FASHIONABLE OREGON, JAN. 14, year. I he timber men folk have been saying they favor good roads and good chord-, but my neighbor, 1 oin .'.iiitli, who is one of those grouchy fcllov.s, was as mad as a bear with a sore head when I told him what we women folk were going to du to get a permanent highway through the county. All the women folk in the county arc going to join the movement and we'll show those men folk, who keep shooting off their mouths about hard surfaced roads how to get them in a few years. The grouchy men folk who oppose this movement will be pickled in one of Butcher 1.each's pork barrels and sold for fertilizer, which is the best way we women folk know of getting rid of the grouchy men folk. Rivals for a Rich Buxom Widow. (By Mrs. Belinda Sourgrass.)___ I hear that Calvin Worrall has a matrimonial bee buzzing in Lis bon net. I hat is not exactly the right wav to put it. A buxom, rich widow is stuck on him and Calvin is ready to throw hinisilf.it the foot of cupid. \\ e hear however, that the editor of the Gossip is a rival of Mr. Worrall, ior he requires a tub widow to fi nance the Gossip. He ll.as already started for Texas to be first on the job. I tie chances are the editor of the Gossip will win the rich widow and bring her back to Tillamook as a trophy of matrimonial warfare "There Was Nothing Eair About : It.

Pull!!! There’s going to be a scramble to get on the next advisory coin- mittee. For this reason: The “pul!" of the Fairview delegate obtained more hard surface pavement than was at first planned, the “pull" of the W liecler-Garibaldi road booster obtained a good big wad,the “pull for a bridge across the river at Woods succeeded in its "puli’; the "pull" for the Loerpabel and the Dean’s point roads, etc., all cut a figure, Bayocean didn’t get a chance to “pull” because it had no represen tation on the advisory committee to “pull" for it. Fashionable Gowns. (By Mrs. Belinda Sourgrass.) As I have been appointed critic on the staff of the Gossip, it was natur al that I should have becoming duds to fill that important position with due dignity, so I hiked off to Hal- tom's January Clearance Sale. \\ ell I bought several of the lovliest gowns in the store, and when I showed them to my neighbor, Mrs. Smith, she said as soon as I wrapped myself up in them they would have to L ive a government stamp on them to prove that they were the latest fashioned gowns, and tint 1 had bet ter look out for the war tax collector. If any of those fellows cante around when I’m lucked away between the sheets in my new gowns to ascer tain whether the government stamps are attached there is going to be trouble. full of roses; with eyes that would dim the lustre of a Colorado sky and with a voice that would make lhe song of an angel seem discordant, and she says, as she comes to the door. ., “I can’t go for a few minutes, I ve got to help mother with the dishes. Don't give her up. Stick to her like a burr to a mule's tail. Just sit dow.i on the doorstep and wait. It she joins vou in two or three minutes, so much'the better; but if you have to stay there on the door step for a hall hour, you just wait for her.

If your the woman whose form in clines to plumpness—not to say em bonpoint—here's a style tip and a warning for you. Woman’s waist line is to be seen again next spring—well defined and with a pointed front. Milady won’t be able to cheat fash ion with the moveable waist line that may be anywhere between her shoulders and her knees when jihe purchi -.es her Easter frocks, The wcil-dcfined waist line has come and come to stay, says the Fashion Art l eague. The women who is fashion able but fleshy must diet—or lace— accordingly. “Among the other events schedul ed for 1915,” said the league’s bulle tin, issued yesterday, “is the reap pearance of the waist line. It is com ing back to the place where it be longs. Recently this very erratic line has gone up and down the figure from bust to hips and back again, and has seldom been seen in its normal location. “The well-defined waist line with tendency to pointed front will be the accepted fashion for day street cos tumes this spring, the line slightly- nipped at center, front and sides This is an influence of military dress that can hardly be escaped, even with dislike of masculinity for war like uniforms for women.” State of Oregon, County of Tillamook, SS.
