He could, yes, but— Why don’t he do it then? Well, I’ll tell you, he has been going to school all winter and he thinks he can’t study on Monday without any breakfast. Why? do the girls take his appetite that way? No indeed. Why don’t he eat then? Well he goes to see her on Sunday night and when he gets back breakfast is over and he goes to school and the teacher whips him for being tardy. Well I think as soon as the roads get better he’ll go over.

MILLINERY DISPLAY. Perliaps the business places in Decatur most attractive to the eye just now are the millinery stores with their elaborate stock of beautiful Easter hats for the ladies. At no time of the year can a display be made equal to spring] and this year especially the various stores resemble a veritable garden of eden, with the loads of fruits, plumes, sashes, and drapperies 2in all the colors of the rainbow, ’ tastily arranged. So enticing arc the displays that when the reporter culled this morning he almost wished he ■was a girl of sweet sixteen that he might be jxjrmitted to revel in such luxuries. The popular new color this year is a new shade of blue, though other colors and combinations, including black and white, bright red, brown and castor are likewise fashionable. There is a decided change in the styles this year and the up to date miss or lady will wear a large, flat hat, which rolls away from the forehead, extending over far enough to shade the eyes, and fitting close at the back of the head. One feature that should be appreciated this year is that though the hats are very large and the trimmings elaborate, the prices are very reasonable and every one may be wearing the reigning style with but little cost. Within the next week all the openings will have occurred and from advance prospects it looks very much as though this is to be the greatest season over known to the business.

The U. Deininger store began their spring opening today and will continue until tomorrow eveninng. This store is very attractive and the large stock of goods on hands proves they are anticipating their usual big business. Miss Grace Peterson is acting as trimmer and lias proven her ability by the patterns already trimmed for today’s use. They informed us that with good weather this spring will be a record breaker in the hat business. Zwick & Lang, on Monroe street, are busy arraning for their opening which occurs next Wednesday and Thursday and Miss Jennie Congleton, trimmer, with sevrael assistants, is busy converting the plain looking frames into stylish and pretty Easter bonnets. ' Mrs. Alice Peterson, on Madison street, has by far the largest stock of spring goods she has ever handlefl and is likeiwse busy completing details preparatory to the season opening , her dates being next Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Mrs. Peterson has recently moved into the Spangler building and has a most attractive and nicely arranged store. Miss Engle is trimmer. & Mrs. M. Burdg has everything in readiness for the season with a great assortment of styles including everything known to the millinery world for the 1903 season. Miss Eva Ernst has charge of the trimming room and has a beautiful display of hats for the opening which begins Wednesday evening and continues during the rest of the week. The Big Store have an immense stock of trimmed hats and bonnets including all modern styles, in shapes and trimmings and announce that they will be ready for Easter opening by Wednesday,, The stores are all artistically ai-ranged and the lady v who cannot find something to suit her taste this year is hard to please. Pay your money and take your choice.
