at figures prohibitive for the average
shopper. but others less elaborate quite
moderate in price, as hand-wrought
laces go.
Venetian lace is as much favorite
ever and is Irish, while Mechlin.
Alencon. Chantilly and all the fine laces
are equally popular for their apprp-

tone suggesting the mellow tint of the
old laces is preferred even in the new
lace and one sees much less of the pure
white Irish and other white laces than
in former years. The same is true Of
the batitste and linen embroideries, and
the soffened tone is indefinitely more
becoming than the white. 1t harmon
lies more delightfully."- with everything

F0RCHA|RMAN
Indiana's New Registration
Law Effective For First
Time in Next Campaign;
Party Chiefs Will Have
Time of Their Lives.
TINES BUREAU.
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind. April 20.--Since
Edwin M. Lee. Republican state chair
man. has made his announcement that
he will be a candidate for reelection
when the state committee is reorganiz-
ed next winter. there has been some
comment on what it is going to mean
to be state chairman in Indiana next
year. 1t is conceded that the chairman
of a state COMMITTEES next year will
have much larger Job his hands
than state chairman has ever had
heretofore. The reason for this is the
fact that the last legislature enacted a
new voters registration law, which will
be effective for the first time in cam
paign next year. This will mean an
enormous amount of work In the way
or organization and in working under
the new law. New blanks will have to
be prepared. and brand new system
of registration will have TO be prepared.
/ One man who has been actively con
nected with state campaign work in In
diana for many years says that at any
/ time in any campaign the task of man
aging a campaign is a big one. with
many troubles and vicissitudes. but
that with the addition of the registra-
tion feature of the work the task will
doubled.
i TT will mean that state chairman
will be obliged TO organize for the reg
istration just completely and as
effectively as for the election itself he
said 1T is just important to get
the voters registered as it Is to get
the voters out to the polls on election
day. Unless a voter registers he can
not vote, and neither party can afford
to leave anything undone to get all OF
its voters on the registration lists This
of course. has to be done under the d.
Erection Of the local party managers, but
the state chairman will be held re-
sponsible for the success or failure OF
the registration of his party. He will
be expected to have general charge OF
the matter, in order that it may be uni
form throughout the SKATE.
:. In view of this situation II is believ-
ed that great care will be taken by both
organizations next year in selecting
their state chairman, and that tners
will not be as large a number OF can
didates for the positions as there have
been in the past.
Politicians are anticipating a great
deal of trouble next year in carrying
out the provisions of the new registra-
ton law Indiana never before had
such a law. and it is feared that the
people viii be slow to adopt it.
