( ,hnldv 'he feather turban, produced in hair tints and eventually sash- 1 loiied to if not actually imitate, a wig was the’forerunner of this fad ... h now han some rather sensational developments as for instance the 1

draped velvet turban, molding the head and swirled In imitation of a chignon at the nap of the neck. The smart world js now familiar with turbans which seem to have b<»en Inspired by surgical bandages. Their are ethers obviously originating in pea lnt headdresses and even baby Laps. The dominant note of the moment is the hat that frames, the face and preserves its silhouette even tii ugh trimming may be adroitly introduced. | a fitted to-the-head look is essen- ! tial to success, American women at ? ; becoming accstotned uto "fittings" at their milliners and are continuing to appi jve a continuity in the trimming or fabric of hat and costume.

S•> heap Big Chief So Cha Rea commands His squaws come round the Injun fire Squaws all tickled death to go Conclave at Country Club on Thursday night, Nov. 8, 1928." (Be sure to come-if you want your scalp saved.) Upon arrival at the Country Club at the stated hour, Mrs. Andrews found herself greeted by the membership of the So Cha Rae Club. The first event of the evening was a most delicious three-course banquet served by Mrs. Maude Dorwin, who was assisted in serving by Misses Mary Meyers and Cecelia Appleman. The covers were laid at one long table, the centerpiece of which consisted of an Indian canoe on a mirrored sea of matrimony, and occupied by a miniature Indian bride and groom. At either end of the table, a lighting effect represented a miniature camp fire before an Indian tepee. The glow of the campfire together with the light furnished by several tall orange and green tapers which adorned the table, furnished the soft lighting for the dinner. Places were marked by little canoes, in the paddle of which was the name of the guest, transposed into Indian language. These were filled with candy corn and each contained a favor of a strand cf Indian beads. As the guests were seated at the table, the "Indian Love Call" was softly played on the phonograph. The president, Mrs. Fred Fullenkamp piesided over the banquet as toastmistress and called on Misses Kathryn Oinlor. Florence Harris, Theresa Appleman and Helena Wehmeyer, all of whom responded with clever toasts to the bride. Mrs. Andrews answered with a few chosen words expressing her appreciation of the . lovely party in her honor. Mrs. Andrews was then invited to the parlor, where she found a unique Indian encampment. Tables, chairs and furn'shings of the room were covered with Indian blankets. A large tepee stood in the center of the loom, and before it a huge campfire glowed. Before the tepee, sat Rosemary Fullenkamp. dressed to represent an Indian squaw. She passed the packages from the tepee to the guest of honor. All packages were wrapped in bright Indian colors of vivid red, green, orange and yellow. Smne were in cubist design, and othei bore Indian insignias cut out in various colors and pasted on the packages. They were almost too at•ractive to open, but were found to be even more attractive within, for they contained many lovely gifts, contents of a miscellaneous shower. Tho remainder of the evening was then spent in playing Bridge, the prizes for high score having been won by Miss Marie Murtaugh, Mrs. R. C. Ehinger and Miss Theresa App’.eman, who in turn, graciously presented them to their guest to honor. The entertaining rooms of the Country Club, were dressed in fall colors and huge bouquets of fall ' flowers added their touch of beauty i to the pretty setting. The committee responsible for this unique party included Miss Florence Harris as chairman, assist ed by Mrs. Fred Fullenkamp, Miss Kathryn Omlor, Miss Helena Meyer, Miss Theresa Appleman and Miss Mary Harris. ACHIEVEMENT DAY OBSERVED BY CLUBS ’ The Home Economics Clubs of Adams county held a very interesting a'l-day meeting in Decatur, today, called Achievement Day. The clubs are for the purpose of improving conditions among the farm women and teaching more about food and food values.’The morning session was held in the Christian church basement and consisted of preparing the demonstrations or the food value exhibit, which were judged by Mrs. John Tyndall, Mrs. O. L. Vance and Miss Mary Macy. The exhibit, made up by the women of Monroe, Wabash and French townships was judged according to the general attractiveness of the project, the neatness and the presentation of the central feature cf Idea. The demonstration proved to be two small houses, the one being the home of wrong food and the other of right food. The walls of the house in which the right food was used was made up of oatmeal, having a head lettuce roof, a chimney made of the

top of a milk Irottle protruding through the chimney, and had u cheese porch and step. The other, wherein wrong food was eaten, was made entirely of weiners, with a pancake roof, a soda bottle chimney, and chocolate steps and the path from the front door led to the cemetery. This plan was cleverly portrayed and displayed much work oo the part of the women. After a delicious pot-luck chicken dinner, which was enjoyed by a large group of women, Mrs. Vance presented the plan of the Federated'club to the members and In turn presented Mis. John Tyndall, who In a very capable manner, stressed the plan for a Federation of Clubs in Adams county.
