DO YOU remember how old-
fashioned comforters used to
be tufted? They were rfiade of
two layers of fabric with cotton
between and every four inches
or so in rows the three layers of
material were caught together
with a stitch of wool yarn dot~ble
which was then tied twice and
clipped to make a fluffy tuft. Well,
that is exactly the way many of
today's smartest chair covers are
made. A cover of this sort re-
deemed this old rocker and re-
vealed its hidden charms.
The cover is plain, medium
green glazed chintz tufted with
dark green yarn and three inch
dark green fringe is used around
the bottom. A long zipper makes
a center back closing. Each sec-
tion of the cover was fitted on the
chair in the muslin lining first
end these pieces were used •s
patterns for cutting the chintz,
• lso the cotton which was trimmed
to be 3/4-inch smaller all around.
After the pieces were tufted, as
shown at the upper right, the
seams were stitched up. Long
stitches were then made on the in-
side to catch the edges of the cot-
ton in place.

THE PAPERS OF PRIVATE
PURKEY
Dear Ma:
Well, ma, I now feel so tired and
sore all over that I gess I am in
the pink of condishun. All feeling is
gone from my feet and my legs are
numb from the knees down so the
drilling and marching don't hurt me
no more witch shows how well
trained I am. But the officers keep
drilling me just the same and pay
no attention to me when I tell 'era
I have had enuff.
We are sleeping five to a tent, but
I am not getting any two much resl
on account of the old saying that two
is compapy and three more is over-
crowding. There is always at least
two buddies who want to tell stories
or argue about ways and means to
get promoted to be a kernel or sum-
thing. And we have a radio fan-
natick in our tent who thinks the
best programs come after every-
body else is asleep. This guy is
such a nut that if he was out in No
Man's land he would carry a porta-
ble so he could hear a broadcast of
what he was doing.
Another fellow in my tent d.on't
sleep at all. He just sits on the edge
of the bed moaning. It seams he
was on a trip to see his best girl
who lives 50 miles from his home
town when he got a call to report
for draft induckshun at once and he
is still squawking. I also got a tent-
mate who was a union man in Pitts-
burgh before he was drafted and
he keeps making speeches trying to
convinse us that we shud picket the
general's tent and demand more
money and less drilling.

We have movies every night in •

they should be in
some camp lern-
ing how to take a gun apart and
guard a latrine. But they do not
make me as soar as news pitchers
of congressmen when they was still
chewing the fat over that lease-lend
bill. I don't even know yet weather
I am going to be lent to Europe or
just leased or what?

It sure has been a cold winter to
be in a army, but the old sarge who
was in the last war says we shud
of been around then and we wad not
be kicking now. We have wood-burn-
ing stoves in tents here and he says
in the last war he never saw a stove
from the time he got his draft sum-
mons until he got home three years
later. They also have boilers so
we can have hot water in this camp
witch he says nobody had accept
Pershing and Alexander Woollkott
in the last one. When we got here we
wuz given a saferty razzer five
blades a cake of shaving sope and a
a toothbrush and he laffed like ev-
erything and sed we must he going
to~the opera or sum place like that
as in the last war soldiers shaved
with there bayernets and only
cleaned their teeth when they had
a friend who was a Y. M. C. A. sec-
retary and carried a spare.

He says we are all getting bet-
ter considerashun in draft camps to-
day than he got in the best hotels
on furlow in 1917 and he showed me
a pitcher of an outfit in the last war
witch backs him up when he says
we are dressed like dudes in com-
parison. He says that in those days
they just chucked a bundle at you
when you reported at camp and that
whatever you found inside you had
to put on as a uniform, even if it
was just a slip cover off a piano. And
he says he spent 18 months in
France with a burlap bag over his
head because the sergeant told him
it was the regulashun army hat.
So when I fee] like kicking I just
listen to him talk. Well there is
not much more to say now. One of
those new Ford pigmee trucks ar-
rived here yesterday. It is all made
of armor steel and all I want when
I get back home again is one of
these to use in Main Street traffic
and pay no attenshun to those taxi-
cabs what try to shove me around.
Your loving son,

A DRESS that's complete in it-
self and smart for general
wear. A jacket that transforms it
into a street ensemble. And both
carefully styled, accurately sized,
to fit large sizes perfectly. All
that, surely, is a good deal to get
in one easy and inexpensive home
pattern. Yet that's just what you
get when you send for this one---
No. 8886. That high-cut front
hips. Beltless, to accentuate
height, the dress is gathered for
correct fit over the bust.
The jacket, made with pleats
drawn in by a tie-belt at the waist-
line, opens in the front to show
the crisp frill and buttons that
trim the frock, with a charmingly
soft, somewhat formal effect.
Pattern No. 8886 is designed for sizes
36, 38, 40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52. Size 38
requires 7% yards of 39-inch material and
11,'. yards of ruffling to trim the dress.

CHOOSE BEANS WISELY
THE gar~tener should be well ac-
quainted with the many avail-
able varieties of stringless beans,
if he is to get the most from his
bean crop.
If earliness is the principal in-
terest, the gardener should select
either Bountiful (green-podded) or
Golden Wax (yellow). Bountiful
is excellent for use when small,
in shoe-string size. It is also a
good choice for home canning, for
it produces abundantly.
The gardener interested in yield
over a long season should select
both a bush bean, and a pole bean.
The pole beans begin producing
when the yield from the bush
beans tapers off.
Kentucky Wonder is one of the
best all-purpose pole beans. It
provides good quality snap beans.
When past the snap stage, the pods
may be cut up, and cooked
southern style. Later, this bean
may be used in the green shell
stage. In the more mature stage
panel has a magically diminishing the beans may be used in baking
effect upon your waistline end or in soup.
