how becoming this style of dress

When the merchants realized that
women were sincere in their desire
to economic and wear less expensive
clothing, they began Immediately to
send in requests to the manufacturers
for more inexpensive lines. One of
the results is the new Sassy Jane

Honolulu in the near future. This lit.
tie dress is as cunning as its name
applies, and best of all is the fact
that it will sell as low as $2.95. They
will be made in Bingham and per-

ing wear in the home, and yet are
smart enough for shopping down
town. They will fill a long felt want.

SEWER PLANS ARE
NEAR COMPLETION
Mayor Rage Thinks Project Can
be Finished in Twelve
Months Time.

Mayor Rage expressed the belief
yesterday that the West End Sewer
would be finished or near completion
shortly after the first of next year.
The plans for the project are now fin
ished, except for the outlet which has
been a source of annoyance to the
city officials.
Il have notified the City Engineer
that he must begin the actual work of
excavating for the sewer at the
earliest time said the Mayor. "The
question of a suitable outlet is the one
point that is now delaying the project.
We, of course, want TO dig this sewer
at least expense to the property own
ers.
'1f We follow our present plans to
the river, we would be compelled to
dig through hill from Sprigg street
to the Mississippi. The City Engi-
.neer informs me that we would have
to cut through this hill to a depth of
fifty feet, which would naturally be
very expensive. | want to avoid bur
lening the taxpayers.
"If the city has the power to ex-
tend the sewer line outside Of the city
limits, this will be done. We have
not yet determined whether we can
legally go outside Of the city limits
# we can do so, it will eliminate the
necessity of cutting through the big
hill, and would lessen the cost of the
project.
"Thc only adequate outlet is the
river. We could run into Cape La Croiy
Greek. but l am afraid this would re,
suit in suits. 1t would at least be 9
nuisance. and there is no justification
for it. Sewage can best be carried Of
by running the canal direct to the Mis-
sissippi River, and I feel this should
be done.
"The work Of digging the channc
and laying the pipe can be finished j.
twelve months, ! am told. | am go
ing to have the plans finished as soor
as possible and then begin the work
1t cannot be finished too quickly tc

Phil HAFNER IS
SERIOUSLY SICK

Phil Hafncr, editor of the Scott
County Kicker, published at Benton. is
seriously i'll at his home in that CITY

health for several months, and during
the warm summer weather. he was
compelled to take a vacation Of two
months.

suspend publication, turning his cir
culation, more than 1000 copies week
". over to The Cape Girardeau T1-ib-
une.
Mr.. Hafner has been forced TO give
up the publication of his paper, tenn
porarily at least, by his physician. The
veteran editor has been unable to lie
in n sleeping posture for several
weeks. The only rest he gets is while
sitting in chair. He is also suffering
from dropsy, produced by an abnormal
heart.
Phil Hafner, who IS hardly so years
of age, is probably the oldest editor
in point of service in this section of
the State. He has been publishing the
Kicker for more than a quarter of q
century.
He has been political power in
Scott County for many years. The
Kicker formerly was Democratic pa
per, but in recent years it has been
advocating the principles of the So
.ialist party.
Mr.. Hafner contemplates making an
visit to the West in ouest
# health. He viii not be able to leave
Benton, however, until his corfd;tio.
improves somewhat.
