lican Primaries for the Office of County
Engineer.
MIR. Atkinson is taxpayer in Che
Ian county, having resided at Entiat for
the past nine years, where he and his

ton, and is thoroly conversant with the
work, having had charge of all the con-
struction contracts, and his work speaks
for itself. If elected he says he will
give all of his timc to the county, and

and if elected he promises that he will
continue to work to the best interests
of all the taxpayers.

Contrasting Three Coast States

President Eden, of the Superior Port
land Cement Co., in an address at Sc
attic said, THE political and economic
experiments in state and municipal
legislation has caused the investor to
hesitate before placing his capital in
Washington and Oregon. The attacks
on public utility companies and the
enactment of legislation OF an expert
mental character are factors that pre-
vent the location of new industries and
the investment OF money in this state.
In contrast to the Pacific North
west, California is in a healthy condi
ton Of business and industry" said
Mr.. Eden. Investors regard Cali
fornia as essentially sane in its attitude
toward business. There can be no
fundamental reason, except differ
ence in political attitudes why the
North Pacific coast should not enjoy
prosperity when California is in con-
dition Of well-being."

WHAT is STYLE?

Il Is Difficult to Define Because II Is
So Intangible.
What makes a woman stylish? APP
piled to dress, style is a curiously elu'
sive quality, either to define or to ac'
quire.
"a stylish garment we say of one
made in the fashion of the day. But
when we ask, what is the style of the
garment?" we are inquiring for de-
scription that may be of this years

tury's. A dress may be lin style" SO

person or in the wrong way.
"A stylish woman" we say of one
dressed a la mode, and yet in the next
breath we describe another woman as
good STYLE" although she is not wear
ing the latest fabrics or newest cut and
often is not herself beautiful
Style is not a simple quality, but a

taste and sentiment" And 1t Is taste
and sentiment more than a specific
mode that go to the making of style in
dress-that intangible something so
hard to define, so seldom acquired and
so much desired because it is so widely
admired.
The French word chic expresses, as
Americans and English use 1t today, a
good deal of what we have in mind
when we say stylish" 1t implies a
certain knack in the selection and man.

cans.-Good Health.

CASHMERE MAN OUT
FOR COUNTY SHERIFF
Mr.. Bert McManus Seeks Nomination on
Republican TiCket-2S Years
Resident of Valley

Mr.. McManus, tho coming out late
and handicapped by the fact that he
ran against a man who had held the
office one term and sought reelection,
he ran within ESQ votes of the nominee
in the last election.
The following fattering notice Of his
candidacy appeared in his home town
paper, the Record, last week. Mr.
McManus needs no introduction to the
old timers Of Leavenworth, many of
whom knew him before he was grown.
He possesses all the qualifications
necessary for the Office he seeks.
I'm sense Mr.. McManus will be
Cashmere's candidate for a county of.
fee, probably the only one on the Re-
publican ticket, and with practically a
solid local support and the spirit Of
fairness that has been promised from
Wenatchee, which from fact of popula-
ton can control any county political
situation, he and his friends are exceed
ingly sanguine as to the results.
Then Bert's qualifications, his ex-
perience and his natural ability make
him the logical man for the position.
Over year as chief deputy OF Sheriff
Kenyon, his work attracted the favora-
Bile attention of attorneys and other
county officials for promptness and ex-
actness in details. He is strong for
economy and has an idea that many Of
the expenses OF the Office are unneces-
sary. A taxpayer himself, he is in
sympathy with the agitation and move
ment to keep taxes down.
I'm Cashmere Mr.. McManus' can
didacy is regarded with much pleasure.
Up the river, at Chelan and on the En-
tiat he is we'll known and has been
promised support. In 1914 he made
a remarkable run for the Office against
Mr.. Kenyon, who was seeking second
term, receiving 1856 votes against 1908
for the latter. By reason Of this, the
we'll defined principles he is known to
stand for. his twenty-eight years resi-
dence here and his wide and intimate
acquaintance all thru the county, he is
entitled to the Office and honor he
seeks.
TT gives the Record pleasure to
print the foregoing and to lend what
ever aid and influence it can to assist
Mr.. McManus to promote his candi-
dacy, and while in no way will this
paper discredit the ambitions and aspi-
rations Of any other candidate, it feels
that aside from the local reasons, that
the affairs OF the office directed by Mr..
McManus will bring forth practical,
efficient and economical administra-
tion. "-Adveitisement.
