The above statement by the assist
ant attorney general was received
here this afternoon over the long
distance telephone when 1t was found
that the city was covered with dodg-
ers in which it was said that new
registration was necessary to vote at
the primary on June 5.
These dodgers have been sent
around at this eleventh hour, evident
ly by some one in the interest of one
certain candidate, in the hopes that
the vote in the cities might be in
fluenced.
According to the dodgers. 'you can
not vote at the coming election I'M
less you register again. Don't delay
register today" This is absolute
transformation according to the rul-
ing from the attorney generals OF
ffce
AS soon as the dodgers were found
and their import sensed, long dis
lance communication was establish
ed with the attorney generals Office
at Des Moines. Assistant Attorney
General Robbins answered the call
and made the statement contained In
the above. Only those people who
did not register for the election OF
1912, or those who have changed
their precincts need register, OF
where there are new voters since the
last election.

VARIOUS DESIGNS IN Wells
Perhaps the. Most PopuIar-Many
Match the Hat In Color.

Loose, flowing wells are worn. Some
are made circular, while others are
draped. The circular veil, with
round opening in the center, which fits
over the crown of the hat, Is well
liked. The lacy designs with woven
scroll patterns are especially attrac-
tive. Some Of these wells are gathered
on to an elastic band, allowing it to
be adjusted over the crown of the hat.
Some hang in straight lines to the
shoulders, while others are finished
with ruche or band, which may be
caught around the throat.
There is a marked tendency toward
the use Of extensive wells. The ex-
tensive use Of color in millinery af-
fords the well-dressed woman an op-
portunity to wear a veil to match the
color of her hat. Brown, navy blue,
taupe and plum or wistaria are all
seen in colors which match perfectly
those shown in straws and silks. All
black and black and white wells are
smart.
