e744 Blouse for Misses and Small Women, 16 and I8 years.
WITH LONG OR THREE.QUARTER
 SLEEVES.

The blouse with Normandy collar is a very new one, very smart and very attractive. This one Is made from organdie which is the latest cry and which makes the daintiest possible blouses. The model can be used, however, for any seasonable material, the crepe de chine that will be worn all summer quite as we'll as the cotton and linen ones. Cotton crepe makes up most attractively and is extremely smart and the voiles of the season are unusually attractive for there are a great many shown in embroidered figures as we'll as the plain material. The combination of the raglan sleeve at the front and the kimono at the back is especially smart. This blouse is all white but touches of color are fashionable and white voile or cotton crepe for the blouse with the collar and cuffs of yellow or cerise would be charming or the blouse could be made of color with trimming of white.
 For the 16 year size, the blouse will require 2A yds. of material 27, 11s yds. So, Isx yds. A in. wide. The pattern 8244 is cut in sizes for r6 and I8 years. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion Department of this paper. on receipt of ten cents.

Guth, of Boucher, declined to say last night.
 "Of course the test will not deter- mine whether women generally are superior to men in mentality" said President Guth. 'The examinations are being made of a few volunteers to determine their accuracy and alert ness of mental impulse. One can readily understand that the person conducting the test might examine a group of quick -witted women and slow-thinking men during the same period. This would not determine the question to the satisfaction of the world. Anyhow, it will be interesting to know what will be the result of Professor Dunlap's Investigations

Catholic Choral . Union Gives Fine
 Concert at Lyceum

The third annual concert of the Catholic Choral union drew a capacity
 audience to the Lyceum last evening and the music was much enjoyed. The program was in two parts, the first introducing a chorus of seventy five under the direction of Professor F. F.. Harmon, arranged in tiers on the stage, and with individual selec- ticns by Miss Marie Stoddart, soprano, of New York, Miss Jane Clark, con-
 tralto, of Hartford, William J. Carroll, tenor of Hartford, and Thomas k. Clifford of Boston, baritone. The chorus was very responsive to the baton of Professor Harmon, the voices rising and falling in perfect unison.
 It's best number in the opening was that of "Loch Lomond," which was sung with marked enthusiasm, and
 the audience was so appreciative that
 one verse was repeated with fine spirit.
 MT. Carroll was the first of the soloists to appear, his number being
 'Thora,' a sweet song, which he inn mediately followed with Telling Her."
 calling for a higher range, task which he accomplished with ease, his fine voice being clear and pure. Miss Clark sang An Autumn Gale" with pleasing effect but it was in La ddie"
 that she showed her wonderful con-
 troL. The words carried tenderness
 with them and her voice was in such
 perfect harmony with the sentiment
 of the song that it made a beautiful number. MT. Clifford, who also had for md yl,n c;,
 tCally encored, responded most hap pily with sailor song from which the audience derived its first spell of laughter and 1t would have been pleased to have heard him again. This feeling of appreciation was still alive when Miss Stoddart appeared, the audience being so happy that she seemed to join in the jovial spirit. She bowed and smiled and sang so we'll that an encore was instantly de- manded. Her response was a love song with a bit of humor in it which the audience enjoyed immensely. k. F. Foley was the piano accompanist and the various numbers were carried through with promptness and splen- did musical effect.
 The second part of the program consisted of the rendition of Hay den's Second Mass in C. The orches- tra had been transferred from the pit to the stage, the soloists occupied seats to the left in front of the chorus and from the time that Pro- lessor Harmon took his position in front the voices promptly responded to his every movement. The solos were splendidly rendered and the whole of the mass was sung with a fervor and expression which the au- dience was prompt to appreciate.
 The Union was made the recipient of much praise for its fine work and Professor Harmon for his skill in bringing such a large chorus up to such splendid state of perfection. Half a dozen or more young women garbed in white acted as ushers dur ing the evening.

WAIST LINE.
 Here is a skirt that gives all the newest features. It is broad at the hips and sug- gests the hustle at the back; it is narrow at the feet yet the fullness above allows freedom for walking. It can be made with high or natural waist line and the girdle can be left plain or finished with an up- standing fri1l. The combination of fow- cred foulard with plain taffeta shown in one view Is an exceedingly smart one but one could make this skirt from any fash- ionable material. It would be very charming made of plain and lowered cotton crepe or it could be made of one material throughout or of any combina- tion that might suit the special costume of special need. If the double tunic proves too full for the figure, the lower one can be omitted. Whichever of the many possibilities Is decided upon, the skirt Is certain to be smart and satis- factory and the lines are the newest and best. The foundation is cut in one piece, straight widths of the material being joined to give the necessary width, and beneath the tunic, there is smooth fitting yoke.
 For the medium size, the skirt will re- quire 4A yds. of material 2, A yds. 36, cA yds. A in. wide, with IA yds. a7, I$4 yds. 36 or A for the lower tunic The width at the lower edge is yd. ard 12 in.
 The pattern 8246 is cut in sizes from 22 to 80 inches waist measure. It will be mailed to any address by the Fashion De- partment of this paper, on receipt of ten cents.

The above advertisements, selec- ted with one exception at random from among four columns of lem ployment wanted" in a recent num- Der of a Seattle paper, brings to light industrial conditions which give the lie to the news and editorial columns of that paper and others which have been telling their
 readers about the return of pros perity'' in the states. The paper
 referred to runs such ads three times free, otherwise those quoted probably could not have been printed. There is no doubt con- cealed in each line of each ad a human interest" story which a skilled novelist could build into an attractive movie" tragedy or drama as the spirit moved. The one eA- ception referred to was the first ad. in which young man and his wife offer themselves at auction to the highest bidder, and which was the
 
 subject of a front page article. giv- ing the experiences of the couple
 while job-hunting during their three years residence in Seattle,
 most of that time their home being
 tent. He had been able to secure
 only two days and five hours work
 in the preceding seven weeks. The
 office numbers have been omitted from most of the ads, otherwise.
 they are just as they appeared originally.
 At Seattle last week a comm itte3
 was appointed by the newly formed
 Unemployed Women's League tc protest to the Central Council O. Social Agencies against the age limit set for those who should re- ceive the benefit of the council $ $500 appropriation. The league also resolved itself into an informa- tion bureau, where particularly needy cases may be reported. Many tales of suffering and privation were told by the gray-haired women and young girls who were present.
 The municipality, as has already
 been stated in these columns, main
 tains Hotel de Gink' where men out of work can secure lodgings and meals, doing such odd jobs therefor as the executive committee of
 'boarders" can secure with aid of the different charitable and civic organization. This alleged hotel IS crowded to capacity and it is SUD- posed that a portion of the overflow
 was involved in the so-called l. w.. w. raid of yesterday on big Secon1 avenue restaurant.
 But hard times" are not confined to Seattle. From Rome comes this bit of evidence-the first to reach us from that part of the world: "The unemployed of this city held a huge mass meeting last night and de- handed work. The people are starv- ing. Industries have been destroyed because of the war in Europe. The heavy burden of the war with Tur- key and the cost of mobilizing the. troops to protect Italian interests during the present trouble has made financial conditions here bad" The receipt by the Bethlehem

like to know how Oconee could get
along without Miss Annie. We would
suggest that NJ G. Holland or Miss

and tell us about their exhibit, as
some OF us, being otherwise engaged, :,
could not be there.
Mrs. j. p. Blackwell visited Rev.

A. RAE DENDY, POSTMAS STER.
VIII Handle Mail .Or Citizens OF
White River, $. Oak.

The following information con-
tanned in a dispatch from Washing
ton last week will be of interest to
many people in Oconee:
Representative Wyatt Aiken has
secured the appointment Of A. Rae
Dendy, formerly Of Walhalla, as
postmaster at White River, South
Dakota.
THE Congressman from that dis
trict is a Republican and has moth
ing to do with the selection Of post
masters under this administration.
The Democratic Executive Commit
tee Of the district has been divided
between other applicants and has not
been able to reach a decision, al
though there was a vacancy. Mr..
Aiken learned of the situation, and
made such strong argument in Mr..
Dendy's favor that he secured the ap-
pointment.
"Mr. Dendy is son of Capt S. X.
Dendy, Of Walhalla, and is well
known throughout the State. He
was for some time a noted base ball
player, and was very popular. He
went to South Dakota several years
ago, and has taken a high stand in
his adopted home. His many friends
in the Piedmont section Of South
Carolina will be pleased to learn of
The latest honor that has come to
him."

are that former Speaker Cannon has

In the I'd district Jas. r. Mann,

Other Results.
New York-The State appears
from early figures to have been
swept by the Republicans. The cleo
ton Of Whitman, Rep, over the pres
ent Governor Glynn, DEM, Is con-
ceded by somewhere in the neighbor-
hood Of 10000 votes. The Sena-
torial elections seems in doubt, with
the possibility of Democratic reduc-
tions.
Vermont-Available returns show
Republican candidate for Governor
in the lead.
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida
and TeXas-The entire Democratic
tickets were elected This, of
course, was a foregone conclusion.
lllinois-Senatoria contest in
doubt, with Sullivan, Dem, and Sher-
man, Rep, in close race, with advant-
age, so far as heard from in the lat
ter's Iavor. The Progressive candi-
date polled smaller vote than was
given to Roosevelt as the Bull Moose
candidate for the Presidency.
New mpshire-Returns availa-
Bile show Republican candidates for
Governor and Senator leading both
the Democratic and Progressive can
didates.
Pennsylvania-Indi are that
the Republican party is successful in
all contests.
1ndiana-Indication point to
election Of Republican candidate for
Senator.
Massachusetts seems to be over
whelmingly Republican in tendency
by first returns. '.
Maryland and North Carolina will
return their Democratic Senators
and Representatives.
Tennessee-Democratic Governor
doubtless elected; two Congressman,
Republicans, announced reelected.
In Wisconsin Republican candi-
dates for Governor and Senator are
leading, 81 5sl Us vs. # 5s9 St
g'fe retdfns aTS very 81 Us
and may not be indicative Of the final
result, but at the moment they ap-
pear to give an idea Of the final fig
ures. In Colorado the Republicans
lead for both Governor and Senator;
in Michigan the condition is revers-
ed, the Democrats leading; Stone,
DEM, of Missouri, appears to be well
in the lead Of his Republican oppo-
nent Atkins.
