of the front, but at the back it is d
deep shade of rose satin.
The evening wrap sketched is love

deep cape collar and cuffs made of the
SofteSt, richest moleSkin. 1t has
yoke in back which gives it a high
WASTED appearance. and the material
is caught on to this yoke in tiny gath

folds at the bottom. \ Distinguishing
feature is the embroidery which orna-
mentS either side of the back panel in
a pattern somewhat like figure eight.
What could be more fetching than
the hat illustrated? Its crown is COW

brocaded in silver. and it's brim is
turned UP piquantly all the way
around and faced with dark moleSkin.
The combination of the satin and the
fur is a very successful one. There

the material used being a Silvery,
Shimmering metal cloth.

John w. James, A. P. O., No. 901-A.

pr. J. T. Woods, formerly of Even ing Shade, but who now resides in Little Rock, is spending few days in Newport interviewing physicians, druggists and business men generally, coming here in the interest of the educational campaign concerning ven- ereal diseases. Dr. Woods has charge of the campaign in the northern half of Arkansas.
 State and federal authorities are cooperating in the campaign to edu- cate the public to knowledge of the resultant dangers of venereal dis eases. Physicians are asked to report every individual case of diseases un- der his care, and the complete eradl- cation of danger from infection in ev- cry case will be attempted. It IS not the purpose of the authorities to at tenapt to stamp out the traffic from which disease comes, but they will conduct campaign which will have for it's purpose the acquainting of the public with the horrible consequences of disease in the hope of lessening its development.

Bop Who Pzayed "War"
 Gets Into the Real Thing

It seems a long, long way from a boys playful days to the battlefields of France. One can realize he lives in an era of stirring events, and one in which lightning-quick changes are made and new maps drawn when he ponders to picture little tow-headed boy in knee-trousers who but a few short years ago indulged the game of "war" with his playmates, and who now is back home limping from wounds received in actual battle; yet only 21 years old,s just far enough in life to cast his vote.
 Such an one is Albert Bevans, now Lieut.. Bevans--Albert who used to be one of the many defenders of 'this side" against the "army" of the East Side, which armies in the not long ago met in mortal combat, swinging sticks fashioned into guns and bayo- nets, using the old Presbyterian church as an objective, the army reaching the edifice first being de- clared the victor.
 Time passed quickly and many of these boys lived to act in reality the pranks of their fanciful days. None of these has more wonderful ac- count than Lieut.. Bevans, who ar rived from France a few weeks ago, and who reached home Thursday night to spend until Sunday with MT. and Mrs. c. A. Hillhouse and his host of admiring friends, when he returns to Fort Roots, where he will receive further treatment for a wounded leg, which was temporarily paralyzed during desperate fight at Grand Pre-.
 Like all returning heroes, Lieut.. Bevans is reluctant to talk of his ex- periences. After going through with what he has, very probably he doesn't want to remember, condition we
