PRACTICAL INSTRUCTIONS IN HOME SEWING By RUTH WYETH SPEARS Only One and Three-Quarters Yards of Velvet Needed for This Smart Hat It seems this season that one has never before needed so many hats. The plainer the hat the smarter it is, but to be in the mode there must be a hat for every frock. Some of the Paris dressmakers are making ribbon hats of the same colors as the dresses with which they are shown. These in the satin and gross-grain ribbons have been exceedingly popular all during the late summer and now they are appearing in the velvet ribbons as well. Hats of this kind are made without frames and are so soft that they will fold perfectly flat. Anyone who can sew neatly can make them. The particularly smart feature of the velvet ribbon hat I have sketched here is the tucks that ornament both the crown and the brim. These tucks are about three-eighths of an inch deep and made, as they are, in the heavy velvet ribbon, they give a corded effect. A yard and three-quarters of six-inch ribbon is required to make this hat. First cut a circular piece as large as the width of the ribbon will permit for the top of the crown. Cut the ribbon for the sides of the crown according to your head measurements, plus two and a quarter inches for the tucks. The crown has only three tucks, while the brim has four. The tucks are made so that they cover the seams in the ribbon. When the side piece for the crown has been cut, cut the ribbon lengthwise through the center as I have shown at "A." This gives you two strips with a selvage on one edge. One piece for the brim is cut two inches longer than the piece for the sides of the crown. This measurement allows for the tucks and for the slight fullness in the brim. The side crown is gathered at the top CUTTLE DISCUSSES VISIT TO CAPITAL Expects to Get Million Dollars for Reforestation Work Discussion of reforestation in the counties of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino at the November meeting of the Tri-Counties Reforestation committee, held at St. Ann's Inn Friday, was featured by a report made by Francis Cuttle, noted water conservationist and reforestation expert of Riverside, chairman of the committee, concerning his recent visit to Washington in the interest of a $1,000,000 appropriation for reforestation and water conservation in Angelus, San Bernardino and Santa Barbara national forests. Mr. Cuttle declared that he had laid the matter before President Coolidge and Gen. Herbert N. Lord, director of the budget, and that he had been assured by both the President and the director of the budget that they were very much interested in the matter. S. C. Hartranft of Fullerton, a member of the state assembly, told of his efforts, co-operating with Assemblyman A. C. Murray of Riverside county in securing passage of the bill appropriating $50,000 for a survey of the Santa Ana river watershed. The bill was later cut to $25,000 by the governor, he said. Although he was warned not to attempt the passage of the bill, Mr. Hartranft declared that, with the assistance of his colleague, he had been able to show the lower house that the money was greatly needed and that it was but a "drop in the bucket" compared to appropriations for similar work requested by northern California counties, which appropriations were many times granted by the house. Assemblyman Murray also spoke, confining his remarks largely to facts and figures concerning reforestation, conservation of water and irrigation in California. He paid a high tribute to Assemblyman Hartranft for his efforts in successfully introducing the bill for the survey expense. George S. Hinckley of Riverside county declared that the state engineer's following members were present: San Bernardino county, Herbert H. Garstin, William Starke, M. M. Dandall W. F. Grow, George S. Hickley; Riverside county, Francis Cuttle, W. E. Dauchy, Harvey Johnson, Frank P. Chase; Orange county, H. C. Head, John Dunstan, G. W. Sherwood, A. N. Saxton, S. H. Finley, A. G. Miller, A. Pierotti J. J. Dwyer, J. W. Newell, C. A. Palmer. MORE FOREIGN LOANS While the rest of the world is criticising Uncle Sam as a rich old skinflint, hating him as a creditor and trying to hedge on the payment of money borrowed from him, it is busier than ever trying to borrow more. This seems to be the real purpose behind the debt settlements, aside from Great Britain's. It was frankly admitted that the principal reason why France sought a settlement was to raise her credit and enable her to negotiate new loans in America. Italy has the same notion. So have other debtors. Europe owes this country more than $10,000,000,000 in private loans, on top of all the big government loans. In the last three months America has sent more cash to Europe than it spent to build the Panama canal. The total increase this year has been more than $1,000,000,000, and negotiations are pending for another billion. For every dollar that Europe hands America to apply on old loans, it wants another five. How can there be any good in such procedure for either party? Europe needs to stop borrowing. America could use all its capital in developing its own resources. How long is this going to last? Assemblyman Murray also spoke, confining his remarks largely to facts and figures concerning reforestation, conservation of water and irrigation in California. He paid a high tribute to Assemblyman Hartranft for his efforts in successfully introducing the bill for the survey expense. George S. Hinckley of Riverside county declared that the state engineer's office already had men in the field on the survey. The survey report will be submitted to associations and organizations interested with the prospect that a comprehensive program for the carrying out of its recommendations will be made. Hinckley declared. Col. S. H. Finley of Santa Ana made a brief report on the meeting held recently in Los Angeles, at which time the proposed $1,000,000 appropriation for the reforestation work in the three national parks was discussed. In speaking of the denuding of forests, Cuttle said that 30,000 acres of timberland was being cut over every day within the United States and that the total federal reforestation program for the present year called for the replanting of only 50,000 acres. If that rate of forest destruction continues, the United States will have practically no timberland within 25 years, he predicted. The reforestation is not so important from the angle of replacing timber as it is from the angle of preventing erosion and the escape of water to the sea, with the resultant damage from floods and the destruction of taxable property, according to Cuttle. "The people of the Southwest do not realize that reforestation, water conservation, the reclamation of arid lands and the control of floods are the chief problems now facing this section from the standpoint of domestic safety and prosperity," Cuttle added. The committee adjourned to meet January 2 for the annual meeting in Riverside. Following the meeting, the members had lunchon at the inn. The Jayhawker Co-eds Yearn for Families Highest Ambition Is to Marry and Raise Children Do present-day girls, or flappers, as many like to refer to them, want to become the mothers of tomorrow? The answer is "Yes" in Kansas at least. A survey by means of questionnaires, at the Kansas State Agricultural College of 1000 co-eds would indicate that motherhood is just as popular as it was in grandmothers' day. The leading percentage group, totaling 36 per cent of the whole, said that they desire to have four children. The summary of the entire group is: 3 per cent desire one child, 21 per cent desire two children, 21 per cent want three children, 36 per cent hope to have four youngsters, 6 per cent desire five, 6 per cent want six, and 4 per cent hope for more than six offspring. The girls were further asked what sort of a husband they wished to marry. The demand for physical fitness was 100 per cent. None of the girls want a man who is not perfect physically. Ninety per cent wish a man to have strong principles; 85 per cent wish him to care about family life and the social background. Eighty-five per cent of the girls object to drinking on the part of a husband, but only 40 per cent see any undesirability in smoking. Three-fourths of them however, say that they would never, never marry an "experienced petter." Three per cent put their approval on free love and trial marriage. The most popular salary range for the potential husband is between $1800 and $2400 a year. This is, of course, the salary at the outset of the marriage career. The husband is expected to raise this figure as the years pass. Sixty-three per cent of the girls indicated the salary figure between the above amounts with the $2000 figure leading at 21 per cent. The lowest acceptable salary for a husband was placed at $1000, but only 2 per cent of the total number of girls said they would be satisfied to start on this small amount. The high mark was $52000 a year, and 2 per cent likewise demanded this figure for the marital beginning. The proper age for marriage did not present a very wide range. Ninety-six per cent of the girls think marriage should not be delayed later than age 25. Fifty-two per cent of them place time between the ages of 21 and 23. None thought that the marriage contract should be entered into before age 20, and only 3 per cent expressed themselves as ready for wedding bells at that age.

Prepare Policies for Coming Gathering The announcement that delegates from all parts of California will be called to gather at San Francisco, October 28, 29, 30, in connection with the California Farm Bureau Federation, which will be held at that time, is the cause of a series of smaller meetings being called in the various regions of the federation. Close on the heels of the announcement of the state meeting, a call was sent to all delegates of California Farm Bureau Federation Region No. 1, consisting of the counties of San Diego, Imperial, Riverside, San Bernardino and Orange counties, to meet at the offices of the Orange County Farm Bureau at 10 o'clock, Saturday, October 17. Following a short session, this body will then be joined by delegates representing region No. 2, consisting of Los Angeles, Inyo, Ventura and Santa Barbara counties, during the afternoon. To both these sessions the directors of the local bureau have been invited. At this and similar other meetings held throughout the state, the policies of the Farm Bureau will be formulated and smoothed out for presentation at the state meeting. Proposed agricultural legislation will be discussed, along with rural educational topics and reforestation. RIGHT TO LEGISLATE Vice-President Dawes is fighting for a principle—a very important constitutional principle. His attack upon the Senate rule which permits practically unlimited debate is aimed at a system which runs contrary to the basic principle upon which government in America is founded—the principle of government by the majority.

General Dawes answers, with convincing facts and figures, the chief arguments advanced by the advocates of unlimited debate in the Senate. To the argument that, if there were limitation of Senate debate, there would be a great flood of legislation, with many mischievous measures possibly going through, General Dawes shows by figures covering the last decade that the Senate, with unlimited debate, has passed three times as many bills as the house, which limits debate. It is repugnant to the spirit of American institutions to permit one senator to wield greater power, by filibustering, than the President of the United States can wield with the veto. Wherever General Dawes makes his vigorous presentation of the cause for which he is fighting, the arraignment of the present senate rule on debate is cheered lustily. The people are thinking on this subject. They are not in sympathy with a method which halts action in the Senate and which, more than once, has delayed or defeated important legislation which the country needed. If you revel in statistical information, you may like to know that the total current income of the American people rose from $67,254,000,000 in 1919 to $74,158,000,000 in 1920, but declined in 1921 to $62,726,000,000. In 1869 the income was only $27,100,000,000. The real income of the American people showed a practically continuous increase for 13 years. This shows the prosperity of America. Uncle Sam seems to be about as popular in Europe now as an umpire in the tenth inning. 20 YEARS AGO IN MOTORDOM El Pizo, now Plismo Beach, in Southern California, thought it was "on the toboggan slide to greatness" 20 years ago, since it had the only long stretch of smooth beach anywhere in the vicinity which was just right for automobiling along the shore, which fad was rapidly gaining in popularity. Building of good roads, which has made Southern California famous throughout the world, began in that desirable section about 20 years ago, when the interest in the movement was at such high pitch that the city of Redlands, with only 10,00 inhabitants, voted to expend $200,000 in its street and road development, with only one negative vote in every twelve. Redlands' example gave it, by the end of 1905, practically the best system of modern streets and roads that was to be found in any of the minor California cities. Water was turned into the boating cana's of Venice in Southern California for the first time in 1905, but now after 20 years as a picturesque attraction, work is under way to fill in the canals and change them to automobile boulevards. Forty-four days was required by a 1905 automobilist in winning a 400-mile race across the American continent to Portland on the Pacific coast. Automobilists were held liable under the law for damages which may result from runaways caused by horses becoming frightened at their machines, according to the Indiana supreme court 20 years ago. “If a Man Dies” “If a Man Dies Shall He Live Again?” THIS question, which Job asked 3000 years ago, is a pertinent one, but it doesn’t bother the business man of today as much as the question— How Can I Get More Business? The answer is by reaching the purchasing agents of the Anaheim homes, and that means the housewives. Women are good buyers. They have learned the futility of “just shopping around.” They know exactly what the family purse will stand and how to stretch the elastic budgets to the limit. That’s why women are so open to suggestion through advertising. Advertising enables them to check up on what the various stores are offering in the way of specific articles, prices and values. It tells them where to go for what they want and just how much to pay. BUT—— To reach and sell the family buyer, you must appeal to her through the paper she reads. In Anaheim that means The Anaheim Gazette. Go through any issue of The Anaheim Gazette and note the items of interest to women. Note, the bulk of advertisements directed to women To reach and sell the family buyer, you must appeal to her through the paper she reads. In Anaheim that means The Anaheim Gazette. Go through any issue of The Anaheim Gazette and note the items of interest to women. Note, too, the bulk of advertisements directed to women advertisements placed by concerns who year after year have found their advertising in The Anaheim Gazette increasingly profitable to them. The women of Anaheim and Northern Orange county naturally turn to The Anaheim Gazette for advice on where and what to buy. No newspaper America has a more loyal, more enthusiastic or more worth-while feminine following. Among the women—as well as the men—The Anaheim Gazette has the BUYERS.
