As a result of the census just an- nounced there will be several changes in the distribution of representatives in the General Assembly. Some of the counties have made considerable gain and will be entitled to more rep resentatives than they now have. When this is done, other counties must necessarily lose, as the law pro- vides that the Lower House shall con sist ofsonly 100 members. This means that there are 25 extra representa- tives to be distributed among the
 counties. These are at present dis t1ibuted as follows: Pulaski 3; Se- bastian, Washington and Jefferson 2; Benton, Clark, Columbia, Conway, Crawford, Franklin, Hot Spring, Hemstead, Independence, Lee, Logan, Lonoke, Phillips, Pope, White and Yell |; Among the counties which will probably gain a representative are Faulkner, Crittendon, St. Francis, Mississippi and Craighead. The counties which must surrender their representatives must be determined by the committee on Apportionment, which will be among the first ap- pointed by the General Assembly.
 There is likely also to be rear engagement of the senatorial, judicial
 and congressional districts because
 of the change in population. This is one of the important pieces of work which will demand much attention in the coming session and will add to the large volume of legislation which is rapidly piling up to be considered

Make a Corn Pudding.

Corn pudding is a delicacy we'll
worth having whenever you get
chance. 1t is delicious dish to serve
as the mainstay of simple luncheon.
And it is quite as appropriate as the
substantial vegetable to serve with

arate course, to use in that capacity.
One good recipe for corn pudding is
this. Crate the corn from a dozen
ears, add cup of milk, salt to taste,
and a tablespoon Of brown sugar.
Bake for one hour in a modern oven.
In this, as in any other pudding, re-
member that If the corn is very moist
and milky you will need less milk
than if the corn is dry or hard.
Another good recipe calls for a
dozen ears of corn. grated. pint of
whole milk, two ounces Of butter. two
beaten eggs and salt and pepper This
pudding is baked for three-quarterS
of an hour.
Various sorts of vegetables may be
mixed with corn in corn buildings.
Diced sweet green peppers or chopped
pimiento are especially good. And If
you wish an interesting, nourishing
and satisfying dish for lunch. then
corn pudding in which diced fried
bacon is mixed will prove delicious.
Here is a more elaborate method of
preparing corn pudding:
Add four egg yolks. wen beaten, to
quart of grated corn, with a tea
spoon of sugar, teaspoon OF flour
Dreamed with a tablespoon Of butter,
a teaspoon of salt, two cups of milk.

1t won't be long before they will be

that time they will be getting head

When the interior decorators turn

not come as quickly as 1t should, this

and mighty decorators, and they
showed boredom and Impotence with
clients who continued to talk Japa-
nese. They murmured something
about Atlantic City and the Board
walk.
But between the decorators and the
dressmakers we have grasped the idea

Such frocks now make their bow in

Reddy Fox Makes Plans.
Who trusts to luck in hope Of gain

Is almost sure TO trust IN vain.
-Reddy Fox.
Reddy Fox is one who never trusts
to luck. He is too shrewd and smart
for that. If luck happens to come his
way. all well and good; no one is
quicker to take advantage Of luck
than Reddy. But he never depends
on it. When he was very young old
Granny Fox taught him that trusting
to luck was the surest way OF gaining
nothing.
So Reddy always plans. and plans
carefully. to get what he wants, and
that is the reason he is considered
one of the smartest Of all the little
people on the Green Meadows and in
the Green Forest. When he succeeds
it is because he has carefully planned
the matter all out beforehand. When
he fails ii is because something or
some one interferes with his plans.
Instead of hanging around the Old
Briar-patch that night when he dis
covered Peter Rabbits secret, trust
ing to luck that one of those little
Bunnies might come outside, Reddy
hurried away. He hoped he hadn't
been seen. What is more. he hadn't
