Tie GENTLE SEX
Notes About the New
Shirtwaist

New models so far show but little de-
parture from accepted Tines. Simple
shapes. hand embroidery inset valenci-
ennes. cluny or crochet tiny hand
tucks combined in myriad ways-these
are the things noticeable, and none OF
them are strictly new.
One little hint, repeated frequently
among the latest French models. may
or may not indicate a certain veering
of favor. The sleeve reaching just be-
low the elbow is used for the majority
of the dressy lingerie models, but there
are undeniably more long sleeves
among the recent importations than
we're to be found among models Of the
same class last season.
The frilled or plated front is one OF
the most insistent notes among these
simple lingerie iblouses, and viii un-
doubtedly have to be taken into ae-
count for spring and summer. One
may as well admit at the outset that
such plated frills down each side OF a
central box plait complicated the
laundering problem.
Some Of the new models have instead
of the puff and long cuff sleeves, Ions
sleeves Of very moderate bishop sug-
gestion. finished with turn-back cuffs
matching the front plait and frills, OF
finished merely with a narrow wrist
band. The wrlstband models are
however. intended for wear with sep
arate turn-back cuffs matching neck
wear or separate front frills.

Hon. D. E. Barker.

In days paper will be seen the announcement of the candidacy of Hon. D E. Barker for re-elec- tion for Representative of Drew County in the Lower House of the next General Assembly of Ark.
 MT Barker IS well known to the people of Drew County as faith iul, conscientious and painstaking representative. He has served the people of this county for several terms, both as Senator and Repre- sentative, and was, at one time Pres ident of the Senate. Many of the important laws on the Statute book were introduced by him. and mong the number IS the Reciprocal Railroad Demurage Bill, passed by the last Legislature, which is believed, by many people, to be a. mong the most important and ben efical, of all of Arkansas laws
 MT. Barker is fine parliament arian, an able and logical dcbator and is fully equipped, in every way, for the responsible duties of a representative.
 We bespeak for him just con sideration at the hands of the Dem ocratie voters.
