The drcsSmakerS arc canny. however,
and they know human nature, or they
woulddn't be successful. Therefore
they are certainly shrcwd enough to
realize that many women will 20 home

in the shaping OF new frock bcIiev-
ing that they can turn the old into the
new by some sartorial miracle which
they have the power to work
The designers, If they realize this
peril, know full well that much con-
fusion and encouragement will result
and that they may get the best Of the
bargain IN the end.
Disregardlng the arguments pro and
con, the fact is that fashionable frook
may be made from three pieces OF sep
arate and opposed materials and a
fourth thrown in for good measure, in
the way Of ornamentatOn.
Everyone knows by this time that il
is not necessary to match the coat 10
the skirt or the blouse TO the skirt, and
we have been thoroughly persuaded in
the last three weeks that separate
sleeves may emerge from the armholeS
OF a blouse that has nothing in com
mon with them in color or in weave.
II is no longer necessary to cling to
the ore color or one fabric from chin
to ankle, a dicum which has ruled the
world for nearly a decade and has re
suited in admirable dressing. If a
woman wishes 30 wear a blouse OF one
kind, sleeveless tunic ri another, a
belt OF some ornate material that she
has picked up from a spot in her attic
or the corner Of a shop, and then com
bine these with a plaid, checked or
plain skirt, there is no one to say her
nay. Let US hope that her long train
ing in careful dressing will give her
strength and power in selecting the op.
posing fabrics she is now allowed to
throw together.

FOR THE LEGISLATURE

Having farmed in Cobb county for
the past twenty-five years, and for
nine years of that time represented
my district on the Board of Commits
sioners and been associated with the
business interests of the county, it
is now my ambition to represent my
county in the Legislature of the state.
The time is soon coming when the
Government will give more attention
and more money to the building of
the highways of the country, and |
feel that my knowledge of the matter
together with my past experience,
will qualify me for looking out for
the best interests of the county when
road building comes up, and that l
shall be able to do much for the
roads through our county.
/ think | am fully aware of the
needs of the great farming interests
of the county, and l think the far
mers are entitled to representation in
the Legislature, and as their repre-
sentative l promise to do all in my
power to promote just legislation,
as respecting both the town and the
country.
feel that there can be no more i'm
portant legislation than that concern

intensely interested in both of these.
