Miss Wright Becomes Bride of Jim Trammel Tuesday Wednesday 1 CHOOSE COOL CLOSET ron youn rvn coat A cool closet which Isn't crowded is the place to hang your fur coat, says Miss Fern Carl, clothing specialist, University of Illinois College of Agriculture. If your coat is jammed between other clothes in the closet, the fur will mat or break. Heat may dry out some of the oils of the leather, so avtid closets which have a radiator or steam pipe.

Choose a wide, well constructed hanger which fits the shape of the neck and shoulders of the fur coat. Never hang it on a hook or peg. Before hanging, shake your coat to keep the fur fluffy and to remove dust. Care for your fur coat while wearing it too. Unbutton it before you sit down.

Give your shoulders a slight shrug to loosen the coat about the shoulders, and lift the coat slightly from around your hips. This will prevent a strain on back seams. Don't remain seated for any length of time with your coat on; the fur will get crushed or matted. 'Avoid sliding over car seats, be cause friction between the uphols tery and coat will cause early de terioratlon of the pelt. Inspect your fur coa regularly for rips or tears, Miss Carl says.

Leather may tear under-strain or seams may open. Make repairs lmmedi ately, to prevent further tearing or ripping. If your fur coat gets wet, hang it to dry in a cool room where air circulates freely. Never brush or comb the furs while wet. ANNOUNCING DAY CARE OF CHILDREN By Hour Day Week Adult Supervision MRS.

FRIDAY Rebekah Lodge 16, 7:30 p. school of instruction. All Rebekahs invited. Poet Corner WHITER IS GOD? Down pours an vaianche of rain from the sky; The. same as has fallen for days gone by; And down with the torrents comes the spirit of man.

Pulled by the dark, dreary clouds that he scans. Who now can say, "All's right with the World?" As is heard in the Spring on the balmy whirl Of a sunny breeze as it raovrs out of sight? Only God's Angels! While man fears the night. The rising waves reach out from their beds, To grasp the fields from which man Is fed! The toll and sweat that should keep him from want Has gone! Leaving a ghost the soul to taunt. "God's In his Heaven?" How distant it seems! Tis as a story or a forgotten dream. The air's full of sorrow of souls in despair Of soon ageing mortals with fast greying hair! But then, at last, a ray from the sun Will burst through the clouds when the storm is done! Its beams will reflect from the soul of man, As his course is marked by an Almighty hand.

And then, through his faith in GOD and HIS might Man will muster the strength, life's battles to fight, And will know that In time, in HIS matchless way, GOD will explain, the tears of today. And when in man's heart tis spring again, When burdens are gone with the fresh ripened grain, The truth will come forth. And from the heart be hurled "GOD'S IN HIS HEAVEN: ALL'S RIGHT WITH THE WORLD!" Betty Kincer (Haglcr) Oak Ridge, Tenn Written Jen. 18, 1930, during floods in Ohio and Mississippi.
