Satin is making front page headlines in the fashion news of the day. The use of satin in the fall mode is simply tremendous. It would seem as if designers had never been so satin-conscious as they are today. Dresses entirely of satin vie with those that go 50-50 satin with crepe. A favorite >choice with best-dressed women for wear during the early autumn days is a handsome satin dress styled with utmost sophistication, with which they wear a luxuriant fur stole. Even the hat is apt to be of matching satin, for milliners are turning out stunning headwear made of it. The draped satin turbans are most imposing as they soar to skyscraper heights. Then too, tall-crowned types with wee brims are animated with jeweled embroidery and they take on a truly regal air. , This year the restaurant suit of satin ranks high in style prestiges While there are many versions oi the restaurant suit, the type liked most is characterized by its simplicity and by its definitely new look because of its soft shoulders, wide wing sleeves and modish cardigan neckline.

FAMILY CIRCLE BROKEN Tragedy has broken the Sheldon family circle of Crysatl Lake, that once was so welded by mutual affection it seemed more united than is common for the parents-with-children and brothers-with-sisters relationship. A telegram from the U. S. marine corps received on Dec. 13 revealed that Lt. LeRoy Karl Sheldon, 23, was missing with ten other air men over China, and a letter from his brother, Lt. Earl Sheldon, 24, has brought the word that he himself has been to the Esingtao base and is convinced that his pal from babyhood is dead. The five days Earl had expected to enjoy with Le- Roy at Christmas he spent packing his brother's personal belongings for shipment home.

This will swwton fie soil and make it poesible for the grasses to respond better to fertilizer treatment. The addition of 10 to 20 pounds of fertiliser' per 1,000 square feet of lawn will do wonders. Fertilizers such as 5-10-8, 4-12-8 or those of similar ratios are well adapted for thickening lawn grasses. Uniform distribution can be obtained by spreading the material in two directions. Measure out half of the fertilizer needed for the lawn and spread it ift a north-south direction, Then spread the other half in an east-west direction, and there should be little difficulty in getting even coverage. Lawns given a tonic in the manner described soon will assume a good healthy color and develojp a dense stand of grass. Lawns composed of dense turf will resist invasion by undesirable weeds such as crabgrass, buckhorn and dandelion. 7#^ Order your rubber stamps at the The Plaindealer.
