CREPE PAPER MILLINERY .. .. | The Wishing Stone EORGIA, COM- monly known as ® "George," sat on the wishing stone by the pasture gate and rocked gently back and forth. The big stone was a little loose and make a fine rocking chair She called #t 'the wishing because that was what her old. Colonsl George, big smooth stone. The said the Colonel was "cracked," but Georgia hadn't paid Any attention. Since the time she and her mother had come clear from Kansas to take care of him, she had adored him. Folks said he had once had money and been a miser, but if 0% had had anything, it was all gone when they came. The wishing stone had been a favor- {te meeting place for them. They would come there and rest and make up stories about how the stone was magic and if you sat on it and wished when you wanted something very, very badly, it might come true. He had thought of the stone, even, be- lore he died. "Remember, George," Ae had said. "that if ever you'ré up Against it you mugt go to the wish- Ing stone." "I wish," sighed George, "that what poor dear grandfather said was true. We're surely up against it, all right, with mother sick. Goodness knows where the money's coming from. I wish--I wish there was some way nt---"" "George! Look out!" screamed the fired man. George looked up, and then screamed, too. Vindicative, the stone' E£randfather, called the neighbors dangerous bull they had been trying lo get rid of for a month, was out of the barn and coming straight toward her. She scrambled off the rock and vaulted .over the fence just in time. The bull even knocked over the stone Mn his rush. When the excitement was over and Vindicative had been tied up, George went back to the stone. She started <0 tug it back in place. But she didn't @nish. Her eves suddenly found a little aollow beneath where the stone had been, and In it a tin box. And when George and her mother counted out the contents, they under- stood why, in the old man's clouded mind, there had been something magic Fig1 BY FLORENCE WINE To keep Old Sol from spoiling your complexion, you will need a dig sun hat. Then you can go oa parties to the beach or row up the river with- out worrying a bit. Use a large rimmed bucktam shape as the foundation for yowr hat. You will also need twé folds of crepe pa- per in any color you like. Separate the crown and brim and cover the crown with folds of the crepe paper. To do this, slip one fold of crepe paper part way from its cover and cut strips two inches wide, using the edge of the packet as = sulda. Weld the strips in the center, as addwn by the dotted line in figure Starting at the bottom of the crown, sew the folds to the shape, lapping 'each strip over the preceding one, as shown in figure 2. The Folded Brim To make the brim, cut strips two inches wide with the grain, and lengthwise of the fold. Fold in the center and fasten the end of the strip to the inside of the brim, hold- ibg firmly as you fold it over the edge, and bring it back on the other side, where it is pasted down. Lap one fold over the other just enough to hidé the edges. These folds should be drawn In closer towards the center as shown in figure 3. It is best to sew these plaits down after they have been pasted, as ir makes the brim much more durable The crown and brim are sewed to- and flowers are added. These ers may be taken from your last year's spring hat, or may be made of yarn in all sorts of gay colors.

Some younger high school girls were having a party out on the beach last Sunday. They all had on gay sport suits, but the prettiest outfit of all was worn by a little dark-haired girl She wore a.red and white sport dress with white sport shoes, and a red crepes paper hat trimmed with soft, woolly white yarn flowers.

It is the father of th: three glectrode tube that radio experimenters and others know 60 weil, at least by sight. Electrons are given off by a heated filament in this tube, as well as a three electrode tube, and if the plate is positively charged these electrons are attracted to the plate. AH rent of electricity then flows through the tube and the cir- cuit, including the plate and fila- ment terminal to which the circuit Is conected. But " the plate is glven a negative carge the elec- trons emitted by the filament are repelled and do not reach the plate There is then no elactric currént in the circuit.

When the plate . Leg- ative no current can flow and cur- rent only passes when the plate is positive. The alternating current is thus rectified and flows In spurts in one direction through the battery. Consider'nz the space be- tween the fllamc ' and plate with- in the tube, the current can only flow from plate filament, but not in the opposite direction. When A storage battery is being charged it is necessary to connect tiie posi- tive battery terminal to the posi- tive side of the line when direct current is used. Thut is, for 'harg- ing, the current must flow through the battery from its positive to its negative terminal. It is readily 11 PAINT PRESERVES especially when it is our shingle stain.
