duction line. Henry is a great fellow,
He'll build a trailer for a neighbor for
prictically nothing, except the excuse
,do it. He has built wagons from
old car frames and .a manure leader
that's a gem when it works. The only
trouble with this apparatus is that it
will work for about an hour and then
stop. Henry will proceed to fix it and,
then discover some improvement that
could .be made and take the next three
days off to biuld the new device on itb
We all'hope that some one of these
days Henry will discoverA new patent
that will eproperisate him and his fan?-
ily for what they have been through,
Henry never gets his seeding in on
time. That's because he has a new
type of plow- that seems to get out of
working order abbut the middle of
plowing time. His drill, is always
falling apart or clogging eip because
of a device he has on it for mixing
fertilizer. He buys the various corn-
penerits and mixes them while sowing.
He has a mower that beggars descrip-
tion and his hay-loader practically goes,
out to the field itself, gathers up the
hay and, brings it in, The trouble is
they so °often go wrong and are in a
state of constant improvement,
I'm-afraid somebody will steal
Henry's ideas some day and he'll go
on tinkering away. without reward,

The comofrtable, easy little frock of
wool or wool mixture, that is colorful
and smart, yet essentially simple, is a
real wardrobe backbone. Here's one'
such model, fashioned of aqua blue
wool jersey and rabbit's hair. The
high, round neckline is enlivened with
stitching. The deep armhole is squar-
ed with stitch detail. A few gentle
gathers fall from the hip yoke to soft-
en the skirt. The dress is nice under a
fur coat or for campu or career wear.

TAKE A 'TIP
Nothing can spoil the festive gaiety
more completely than an accident in
the home, Here are a few precaut-
ions:
Do not handle electrical appliances
with wet hands,
Do not yank at cords or run them
under rugs.
Do not neglect purchasing extra
lamp bulbs of various sizes so they
will be on hand if needed,
Do not place fancy inflammable
ornaments, synthetic materials, paper
or cotton near high-wattage lamp
bulbs.
Do not overload your electrical out:
lets, Usually 1200 watts is as much as
the ordinary circuit will supply.
Do not put pennies in 4 blown out
fuse, A blciwn fuse is a warning that
the circuit is overloaded.
A replacement of a new fuse of the
same strength is required;
Do not • forget to have insulated ,
staples on hand in case you want to use
an extension cord,
Do not burn candles, close to the
ChriStmaS trees, curtains, wall paper,
`,7i5odworic or mirrors.

WHERE CHURCHILL WILL SOJOURN IN U.S.A.
Something went wrong with the well
pump the other day. You could
pump and pump like a-Dutch windmill
in a high.breeze and, the pump would
cough and wheeze like a horse with
heaves and bring forth only, a very
small amount of water for all your

when it rained the early part of last
Wednesday I retired to the driving-
shed with the pump.
There's something about tinkering
that seems to fascinate a farmer. Some-
body once said that a farmer must be
a combination of veterinary, carpenter,
plumber, lawyer, accountant, poet and
just plain tinker,. I'm inclined to think
they were perfectly right. The tinker-
ing' is usually more' attractive when a
person has to take a bit of wire, the
side of an old shoe, some bent nails
that have to be straightened, the end
of a tomato can . . and other articles
of a similar nature in order to make the'
thing go.
