The Legation has been enveloped by the rebel ad- vance and information now received show's that the British had been under Obeli fire presumably from the revolt- ed section of King Amanullah's army which had destroyed the building o.c eupied by the military attache. The moment chosen was a hill in the heavy winter storms which had been sweeping over Afghanistan from the northeast. Airplanes From Irak.

How to Renovate Baby Blankets When it is found that a need has arisen for using old baby blankets that are slightly worn these can be made like new again. This is how this can be done. I purchased a quantity of 15 -cent voile and covered the old blankets with it, some in blue and some in pink. I tied them like small comfort- ers with coarse contrasting crochet thread, crocheting or buttonholing around the edges and across the ends. For my best blanket I first covered the old blanket with white outing flan- nel and then with pink voile. It was perfectly stunning knotted with the coarse bice crochet thread. A little, old, lamb's wool comforter covered with white outing and then with pale blue voile and knotted with rose crochet thread was as dainty as one could wish. All these little coverlets wash beautifully.

When roosts are on a slant the birds always try to get on. the top two or three roosts. Tao lower roosts will often be entire- ly. vacant. This tends to crowd the birds together so that they become very warm during the night. In the morning as the birds get down on the floor their bodies cool off very rapidly. Colds and roup are much more com- mon in houses where the birds ate crowded together on the roost. Level roosts will help in avoiding this trou- ble. The roosts should be four feet above the floor for the heavy breeds, and four one-half feet from the floor for the light breeds. •• and Girls will be girls–and so will thr:ir grandniotlters.
