made their trial flights is September 80
As this IL only eleven days away and as
none of the contestants as yet have made
a successful fight and no definite dates

All Must Pay state License.

At recent meeting Of the Executive
Board of the Virginia Real Estate AssO-
citation, steps we're taken to require all
real estate agents in Virginia to pay the
State license for the privilege of conduct
ing such a business. The association
proposes to bring this matter to the at

hope in that manner to secure the end
desired. II is claimed by this board
that there are between seven and eight
hundred real estate and land agents in
Virginia, and that there are only about
$50 who are paying the State license.

Corset a Campaign Issue.

A campaign issue on corset lines is
the programme by which the republican
national committee counts on winning
the 100, 900 women voters in Colorado,
Wyoming, Utah and Idaho. Chairman
Cortelyou's literary bureau started the
corset agitation as a political issue Tues
day by sending out printed statement
by w. A. Marble, executive officer OF
a corset company, declaring that pro-
lection has given the women better cor
sets than they used to have, and the
tariff has improved their forms. Says
the corset man:
"The tariff has enabled the American
manufacturer to produce better quality
of corset. We now retail corsets at S2
and 50. so each which are equal or su-
periOr to those we formerly imported.
They are superior because they are
adapted to the American waists"
1t is expected the corset issue will
Lake a great hit among the Mormons.
