How many remember when such an outfit was in vogue? Or better yet, 'how many remember seeing j this young woman wearing them? She lived in West Millard all her life and has been active in church and civic affairs. She has a keen interest in politics, and is an effective politician. No doubt but that such an impressive out-fit as shown here helped get out the votes. The hat alone is worthy of spe-cial notice. Hats were works of art in those days, and this one was a handsome affair, complete with flowers and ostrich plumes. This young woman is one of a large family that included twin sisters. When she was a girl, she walked three and a half miles twice a day to go to school and return. She married a farmer and has always lived on the farm. Their children are all married and have children o'f their own. And she is going to be more than slightly surprised when she sees this picture of herself here. Singing Mothers Practice Jan.

Robison. Armed Services fay Rates In view of the many questions asked, and from the substance of many discussions overheard, it is very evident that many people are not aware of the increase in pay to members of the Armed Forces since War II, and since it con-cerns most of us, it would seem proper at this time to publicize that information.

New Furniture Combines Beauty, Strength, Long Life Combining beauty with the qual-- i ities of permanence and strength, hardwood veneer represents the highest stan.l of craftsman-ship in the manufacture of fine furniture. Many of the unusual wood pat-terns to be found in modern fur-niture could not be produced ex-cept through the fabrication of hardwood plywood and face veneers. Wherever wide surfaces are used, either flat or curbed, hardwood plywood construction gives the most satisfactory results both in attractiveness of the wood grain and durability. Apparently some people have the mistaken idea that hardwood veneer furniture is inferior in quality. The truth is that wood veneers are unsurpassed in bepjty, strength and stability. Crotch, burl and stump wood which provide the most beautiful wood figures could not be utilized otherwise because of a tendency to crack and split if used as solid pieces. Applied in the form of thin face veneers on hardwood plywood panels, these fine grains can be utilized to the utmost without splitting or chipping at corners and edges. This explains why 75 percent of all wood furniture exhibited at leading furniture shows in Chica-go, Grand Rapids and New York were of hardwood veneer. It also is the reason hardwood plywood is used extensively in the manu-facture of television and radio cabinets.
