Nothing makes a prctticr evening frock for the young girl than lace with a little edge of pearl trimming. This one shows the skirt of flouncing in two widths. The neck line and the sleeve drapery are of special interest and the finish of pearl beads is exceedingly dainty and attractive. As a matter of course, the lace used is of the simple sort adapted to girls costumes and one could make the frock oH chiffon, of crepe de chine or of taifeta or of oncana a dozen materials. The skirt const5,n of two Hounces, a wide and a narrow one which are joined ono to the other and this narrow ilouncc or yoke can be joined to the lower one on a pointed outline or on a straight outline. This frock is all white, over white charmcuse satin yelled with pale green chiffon and the color effect is a most fascinating one, but the model could be used for many different ma- terials. All the soft silks arc eXtcn- sivcly worn for evening dresses and show charming variety oi color. There arc nets that arc lovely and crepes that are really bcwitching. Plain materials can of course always be treated to provide finish, net would be charming with ruches of the same at the lower edge of the skirt and little iridcscent bead trimming arranged over the center of each one. In such case, the yoke would be of the same material and the bodice could be of net or satin or chiffon. If the sleeve line is not liked or it is desirable to drape the upper portions of the arms little, short sleeves can be sewed to the under bodice or lining, and this under bodice can be cut high and faced to form a yoke if a daytime frock is wanted. For daytime use, one could make the bodice and skirt of a soft taffeta with the sleeves and yoke of lace to be very charming. The yoke or upper portion of the skirt may be
 joined to the lower by means of heavy cord or there could be some ruching arranged over the scam. Just
 now you cannot make the hips too
 broad and as a matter of course trim
 ming always helps to produce that effect.

TIMES REPUBLICAN, ARsHALLToWN. IOWA: APRIL 1916.

AIlard as candidate for the nominal
ton for county treasurer ON the re-
publican ticket. Mr.. Allard Is espe-
cially well known in the city, where he
has a wide circle of acquaintance
gained thru a long period of years
spent in business here.
Mr.. Allard proposes to make cam
didacy based solely on his ability as a
business man capable of successfully
conducting the affairs of the county
trcasuuer's office. He believes if he can
not qualify in the minds Of the voters
on that basis he would prefer not to
have the nomination on another quali-
f1cation.
Since 1870 Mr.. Allard has been a
resident of the city. except for some
years soon after that. when he lived
on a farm near Lamoille that his father
had bought, and later at Albion.
After leaving the farm Mr.. Allard
engaged in the lumber. coal and grain
business in Albion, then returned to
this city. He entered the employ OF
the Frudden Lumber Company as a
salesman. and later engaged in the
grocery business under the partnership
of Pemberton & Allard. This part
nership continued four years, when
Pemberton sold his interest to A. H.
Sheldon. A year later -Allard sold out
and has since engaged in the real es-
tate business. z.5,. 6,
AS might be gathered from the fore
going MI Allard's varied business ac-
tivities and experience have given him
a. first-hand knowledge of farming,
mercantiling, and real estate. He feels
that these eynerienceS give him Quali
ffcations that would prove useful in the
county treasurer's office.

but he is willing to be judged by his
record as reason why he should be re-
elected
He is asking voters to consider MS
candidacy as tho it were a business
proposition. Here is Mr.. Causes creed,
and the position in which he stands IN
his candidacy:
"a county officer Is in the employ
~of the public, the same as the hired
man on the farm or the employe OF
any mercantile or manufacturing busl-
ness or public service corporation is an
employee of the respective industries
and II an employe in his line makes
good he Is usually retained more than
q few years. - e+ f..
Persons familiar with the business or
the treasurer's office recognize that a
number OF progressive and business
like improvements have been made In
the conducting of the office during Mr..
Causes tnclfmbenCy. A - system OF
blanks for office use, prepared by Mr..
Cause, has been approved by the state
examiners and later adopted in many
counties. Three examinations by state
examiners of the treasurer's accounts
have elected favorable comment from
them each time.
On account Of better business meth
DDS adopted, the cost of extra help
for the treasurers office has decreased
in spite OF the increase of business
Misunderstanding. Mr.. Cause found,
was often the cause of properties going
to sale for delinquent taxes. A little
personal attention given to these mis-
understandings by the treasurer has
caused a marked decrease in the num-
Der Of properties that have gone to
sale in the last two years.
There also appears today the an
nouncement Of the candidacy of Fl. j.
