TIEVOTE POLLED
AT MERRlMACK

At the last election q tie vote was
cast in the village of Merrimack for
assessor-the two receiving the vote
being Charles Stewart and Herman
Weinke. The law provides that ties
shall be settled by the inspectors OF
the election Tipping the coin, pulling
straws, having the candidates run
race or in some other way settle the
matter. This was not done. 1t is
law of natural, philosophy that two
material objects cannot occupy the
same place at the same time and two
assessors cannot serve the village this
year. The trustees will have the
pleasure of selecting an official.

TOCS FOR KIDDIES
Ready o-Wear Clothes Have
 Many Advantages.
Which They Believe Look Better Than Those They Make.

Each season, assert the shopkeep- CTS, there is more and more demand for ready-made clothes for children Not that there are more children, but that more mothers are relying on the ready-to-wear garments, which are really so much better looking than anything they can fashion at home without spending a good deal of pre- cious time in the process. Even If the modern mother is good needlewoman she finds that fine sewing is the least requirement. Styles in children's clothes change rapidly nowadays; the same models are not worn year after year as they used to be. One does not recall these frantic style changes in ones own childhood. There was the long-waistedofrock with a sash or lOw-placed leather belt. And there was the plaited skirt with a sailor blouse And there was the guimpe dress. AL most all frocks for little girls kept to these fundamental principles.
 It is interesting to watch the style developments in raiment for small girls. Features that are the fads of one season usually appear the next season as salient points of Juvenile garb.
 Why this Is, no one quite knows; but 1t is so. Frocks for little girls this autumn show over -the-waist bod ices, tied at the back in a sash. They show long over-blouses with fringe at the edge. They show straight lines and loose belts and SaSheS and round necks edged with plaited frills. Every day frocks are of serge, of wool jersey, of tricotine, and the favored trimmings are buttons, braid, angOra wool, silk embroidery and loop fringe. Taffeta and even satin dresses are shown for girls from seven to twelve years old; and the taffeta frocks, particularly, are quaint and charming in their soft, bright colors and childish style.
 One blue pOplin model is an excel lent choice for autumn school days. It is little more substantial in weight than a tub frock, yet is not so heavy and warm as an all-wool costume. It fills in the gap between summer and winter admirably-thOugh, of course, it must be supplemented by several tub dresses for wear on those sultry days that always come. This blue poplin model might be developed successfully in taffeta, with lace or hand-embroid- cred collar and cuffs for formal occa- sions; the blue poplin, with its collar and cuffs of the material and neat white lawn vestee, is an ideal school frock.

CoIors for Autumn.

Mendinq Lace.

Small breaks in lace can be very perfectly mended with little care and patience. Place tiny knot at the end of your thread and draw the thread through the place where the lace is broken, joining the broken thread to the lace proper. Then draw a succession of loop knots over the floating thread very tightly close to the base. Now follow with the new thread the course that the old thread had taken and do the same with the other loose end, knotting it securely close to the body lace. Cut away the loose ends and the break is no longer perceptible.

REINSTATEMENT
 FAY BUY ARMY - TRAINING CAMPS
Resolution Offered House By
 Rep. Anthony.

Washington, Jan. 3O.-Purchase by the war department of sites. of exist ing army training camps would be profited without specific authority from congress under resolution of fered in the House today by represen- tative Anthony of Kansas, at the re- quest of the members of the military committee.
 The resolution was introduced after Secretary Baker and Assistant Secre- tury Crowell had appeared before the committee to urge acquisition Q1 the sites of all national army canton. nents and two national guard camps Sevier, South Carolina. and Kearney California. Mir. Baker told the com mittee that he believed the depart mcnt had authority to acquire the sites, but that congress unquestionably could stop it from carrying out such a plalA
 Many members of the committee apparently were opposed to the pro. posal and when the war secretary had completed his statement, representa- tive Anthony offered his resolution Members urged that the measure be introduced in the house so that more formal consideration of it might be given. The committee will take up the resolution next Tuesday.

HOOVER MAY TAKE CHARGE OF WORLD
 FOOD RELIEF
Would Use German Ships
 For Tonnage.

Washington, Jan. 30.-Correspond- ents between Col E. M House, as the American representative on the su- preme war council, and the foreign ministers of Great Britain, France and Italy, showing the origin and de-
 velopment of the commission for world food relief with Herbert c.
 Hoover, as Director General, was
 made public today by the State De- partment.
 The original plan as suggested by President Wilson providing for the use of German passenger tonnage in returning American and British troops home and carrying food on the return trips, was accepted subject to few changes recommended by other governments. These included provis- ion for a commission to direct the
 work through the director general rather than this responsibility be left with the supreme, war council. America to Lead.
 While agreeing to the proposal that
 America should take the management of the relief, the French foreign minister said it was vital that the aid
 be given as. coming from all the allies ''and that the enemy should not consider that divergence of views ex-
 ists in the realization of humane purorse as lofty as that which the associated governments actuated by the same spirit are pursuing" To prevent profiteering the Presi- dents plan provided that the director general make his purchases directly from the respective food administra- tions of the associated governments or from established allied agencies in neutral countries.
 ~,Tha correspondence shows that the activities of the organization contem- plate aid f;sar enemy populations as well as for those liberdR, -from ene- my yoke, and the neutralf contfKs%uoos Ks !, to enemy countries. fI

PARAGUAY RETURNS
 U. S. COURTESIEs

New York, Jan 30.-The reason Paraguay accepted the basis that President Wilson offered some time ago to the states of North and South America looking to the consummation of f'an-American solidarity was be- cause of the just treatment of Para quay in the past by the United States, said Manuel Gondra Paraguayan min istcr to the United States, the former President of that republic, in an ad- dress here today before the Pan- American Society of the United States at the Bankers Club. MT. Gondra cited two instances of just treatment by the United States, one a decision by President Hayes of the right of Paraguay to territory wrested from her in war with three nations. The other was in 1857 when Postmaster General Johnson, in a dispute between this country and Paraguay during which ar American battl fleet was sent there. rendered q decision against tie United States.
