THE DAVENPORT RnCALL MUDDLH

The decision Of the supreme court in the Davenport
recall carries important general application.
II relates simply to the question of regularity and
legality in the particular proceedings whereby Daven
port was ousted from his position as member of the
city council
The vital question as to the legality of the recall
method is not touched upon in the decision, although
that question raised chief ssuesn the interest
of Davenport. The custer is annulled the ground
that the recall petition fraudulent to the extent
that It contained either fictitious otherwise
unwarranted AS declared by the court Some of those
whose signed to the petition not
rolled the great register" On that fact alone the
supreme overrues the lower court declares that
Davenport legally the councilman for the Sixth ward
until the end of last year, and that he is entitled to
pay for the four months of the illegally served by
his
What of trouble the jealous leaders of the
recall movement brewed for Los Angeesi
few individuals forced themselves to the front in
managing the petition and 1t appears that in their
eagerness to get the requisite percentage of they
took every kind of fish that to the net. Even
after the subsequent official scrutiny Of the petition
which caused large number of names to be tossed
overheard quite enough fraudulent remained to
nullify the subsequent election.
While the vital question Of the constutionaty of
the recall not passed upon by the supreme court,
the general bearing of the decision is calculated to
weaken confidence somewhat in its stability

How Women Dress

"a tribute to the latest style in hair
dressing-combing the hair at the theater.)
She scrubbed her pretty countenance until 1t
was immaculate;
She powdered 1t and chamoised 1t till she
would fain calculate;
She brushed her teeth until they cleaned
like planets in the sky at night.
And doped her eyes until they shone ike
lightning bugs that fly at night.
She mopped her ears till they We're pink, she
smeared her brows with vaseline,
She rubbed her shoes with polish and she
cleaned her gloves with gasoline.
She donned her finest petticoats-the ones
with thinnest laces on.
And as she pranced before the glass she put
her grandest PAGES on.
She wore her drop-stitch hosiery and shoes
like fairy sandalings,
She crawled into her rustly skirt that called
for dainty handle-ings
Her peek booest waist she took from out
the drawer and put It on
You'd think her starting for ball with
waxen floor to foot It on.
Her neck contraptions looked so light a
puff of wind would scatter them,
And vet she hoped the man she loved would
take the hint and flatter them.
She plunkad her hat upon her head and
spent ten minutes fitting it,
Then put her puckered cape around-she'd
been all summer quilting IT,
She grabbed her gloves and fitted them upon
her fingers carefully,
Took one last look into the glass and
breathed a wish all prayerfully
That he who was in waiting might throw
out glad "Oh, Gee" at her;
But had she combed her hair why, no!
She'd comb IT at the theater!
