HOME DEMONSTRATION WORK Community Fair Held at Caskey Sta tion Tuesday. Tuesday the Home Demonstration Agent Attended a Community Fair at Caskey's -Station under the direction of the Farm Demonstrator Mr. Gral>er and Home Demonstrator Miss Creigh t'?n of Lancaster County. Mr. McCown Farm Demonstrator and Miss Garrison Home Demonstrator both of York County were presen. also Mr. Elliott the District Agent. The visiting agents acted as judges of the various exhibits. These Community Fairs are becoming very popular in the more progressive counties. They create a widespread In terest in the i>ossibilltles of production in and around the hame. Any farmer Is enabled to see what the other farmer is doing and thus a pleasant and help ful rivalry Is stimulated between them. This does wonders towards raising the standard of production on the farm. Likewise the housewives are spurred on to "make their., l*?rft still better" and there Is aroused activity all over the county. It is probably too late to begin nny such movement in Ker shaw County this year hut let every community, every individual begin thinking and planning right now to show during the year 15)18 what can be done, what has been done what art* the possibilities of this county.

New York, Nov. tl.? ?W ?? have Imwmi hearing a deal lately a Ih?uI the hustle dr*^, the hustle eoat am! even tin* hustle tint. On the stage they have Ihh'ii featured lu some of the most surtvsHful plays of the Miam?ii. "Why, thai isn't a hustle," one In tempt ed to er> . "It Is simply a draped sash, or soft pleats in the haek." After all, what's in a name? ltathevj |ess tlwin nothing If the name doen not de?erlhe the thing or if it is misunder stood The hustle of yesteryear was a hideous afTalr, padded and puffed and stuffed with wire or wtraw, an ohjeet of torture,* it would seem, to the uninitiat ed. The hustle of 1IM7 |s eiftlrely dif ferent. It is really haek drapery, and is exquisite in the soft materials fav-' ored hy hash ion for this year. "lint is it heeoiulngY" you ask. Yes, and auain yes; for if you are tall and! straight. perha]>H a trltle too slim, it is au added yraee, and if you a re short and i >1 u in 1 1. it gives length of line! Sounds like magic does it not t it ? XlCCAI.b Ill Illaek and White does not cut off the figure, as has so often been feared ; it but nerves to accentuate the good points of t lie figure ? and cover up the had ones. .The skirt must he rather short, and narrow, and -the hips and front must have no unnecessary fulness of mater ial, The wab)-' is either fitted or xeml-fltted, and if the hustle is on the coat, there need not he one on the skirt. Bustles are made of silks, satins, vel vet ? in fact anything nice. If the ma terial Is soft and crushes when drap ed. a slight stiffening is used. On evening dresses, the hustle' effect may be given by a bouffant bow of maline or dress net which is stiff enough of itself to assume the perky lines so chic just now. It is surprising what a -transformation can be worked with a bustle sash on the evening dress of last year. Many of the newest designs have surprises in the way of linings. Often the bustle of a dress is lined with a contrasting satin slfowlng only every now and then, as in the dress illus trated here. No other trimming is used" -the TTnlng being rej>eated for the collar and sometimes the cuffs. The soft pleated bustle is the most becoming as a rule. This one is shaped, l>eing longer on the sides than in the hack, and as usual, the front of the skirt is absolutely plain. Any of the soft nytt^rials could be used, and thero are many attractive color schemes, one of the most ^effective being black and white. The dress Is black satin with white satin for the lining and the collar. Speaking of surprises, the news from tiie PaTls houses is full of interesting and nnexpected details.. Now one hears of parasols and umbrellas with gun handles, made to simulate the rifle of the French soldier. One ^expects v the hats and other parts of the costnme to be on martial lines, and so the beret of the French sailor seen on the dainty lady of Fashion is not as as tonishing as it might be, when one eonalderSi the factor of patriotism. War Jewelry, too, reflects the spirit ojt "the times, and brooches and other orna ments made from pieces of shrapnel are quite the vogue. _ . .?? r Was A High School Lad. - ? *? ?
