Draperies in Voque.

A glance at the pretty dresses in the windows of the shops indicates that one may make use of any old thing to furbish up ones spring gown this season. An old silk dress may have draped over it an old lace dress and short sleeves may be heightened by adding wide lace to them. But not only is black used over bright colors. like green and blue, but contrasting shades are used, blue over mahog- any, for instance, or an amethyst over green. They all look very pretty and fresh, but experience has shown that it is not fair to judge the fashions of the early summer and spring by the first displays.

To Remove Rust Stains.

Iron rust has a most astonishing way of appearing on garments. Some times a pin will be bit rusty anC leave two little brown spots in most conspicuous place. Wet the spot with a drop of lemon juice, add salt and put on more lemon juice. Put in the sun and when the salt is dry the rust spot will be gone. If the sun refuses to put in an appearance for the day hold the stain with it's saturated solu tion of lemon juice and salt ovel stea n. The rust will be :emoved

EetehIna Tea Frock.

Tea frocks of embroidery batiste and fiounces of filet set on net and apron tunics of batiste are worn at southern resorts. A frock of white ehallis having a large emerald green polka dot design and emerald green satin ribbon was run through white silk fagoting in three tiers of the skirt. It finished the short sleeves and surplice lines of the waist. A wide sash girdle of green ended in one large loop. Two long raveled ends fell from the left hip.

The Helpful cirdIe.

The flower girdle as an accessory to dressy frocks should not be over looked. This is one of the novelties of the season. A girdle of French blue chiffon is covered all over with small pink roses, the chiffon merely serving as foundation and for the big bow at the back. Another lovely girdle has a foundation of silver ribbon which ties in a big bow at the side front. Otherwise it is concealed by clusters of purple grapes. One of these gir- dles-and the fancy may go the limit in the selection of flowers and color ing-will glorify an otherwise perfect ly ordinary frock of lace or chiffon.

FRENCH NOTE IN
 SPORTS CLOTHES
Foreign Influence is Felt More Strongly in America Than
 Ever Before.
MANY NOVEL FEATURES USED
Large Pockets, Trimmings, Panels, .Strappings, Woven PIaids and
 Stripes and Other Ideas Are, in Evidence

Of all games tennis is the favorite with the French women, who take any amount of trouble in procuring smart clothes for their games, writes Paris fashion correspondent. The French woman's conception of sports dress, however, is somewhat different from that of the American or English woman. The clothes she wears on the tennis court are, judged by oul standard, somewhat fussy, but unless one is of a distinctly athletic type these clothes are infinitely more be coming than those of the more severe and mannish cut to which we have been accustomed. We in this country are beginning to realize this; con- sequently the French influence is now felt more strongly in our own sports clothes than ever before.

 Interest in Skirts.
 In skirts for sports wear great in terest is manifested in models of de cided design, showing big pockets, trimmings. panels, strappings and other features The use of novelty materials adds to the extreme look, woven plaids and stripes in high colors being combined with plain fabrics in contrast or in harmony to work out the most eccentric of the new styles.
 A skirt of fawn-colored serge has huge square patches of checked burella on either side. and in these squares pockets are inserted. The skirt is made to wrap about the body at the top, closing in crisscross fashion by means of tabs and large buttons. From the lower tab to the hem the skirt is cut away in diagonal line. In other words, it has a one-side closing which laps far across the front at the top. A glimpse of the plaid shows at the hem in the form of pantalette cuffs attached to full length panel of the plaid. These new skirts are quite diff ferent from the plaited sport skirts of wool that we have been wearing. The remarkable trimmings of gay colored cloths bring bright note into them.

EIGHT PER CENT
PROFITS; NO MORE

Our hats are off to the White Mo-
tor Co., one of the biggest concerns
of its kind in the country.
We don't know hat kind of motor
truck it makes; that's for our adver-
tising columns to tell. But we do
know that it is American, square and
gloriously lacking in the prevailing
greed.
Here is a business institution worth
perhaps fifty million dollars and with
an income of many millions every
year. Mostly such concerns are striv-
ing to pay so to 100 per cent divi-
dends and to cut melons in the form
Of to 5 to 10 common shares for one
Of the old shares. The White Co., re-
fuses to pay unusual dividends at all.
Its fixed policy is to pay 8 per cent;
such profits as are left over after
that are used in raising the wages of
its 10000 or more employees and in
plant improvement. You never heard
Of strike at the White shop.
All sorts Of commodities have been
raised from so to 500 per cent since
1914. The White commodities have
been raised only 10 per cent in six
years.
White and Ford are shining exam
Piles of greedless decency in this coun-
try during these awful profiteering
days. The people know Ford and we
think they ought to know White.

SEBASTIAN THINKS
NEFF OR THOMSON
FACE M'GREGOR

The following in regard to w. P.
Sebastian, former we'll known Farm
ingtonian, will be interesting to his
many friends here:
Politics is an exerting game and
former State Senator w. P. Sebastian
of Breckenridge has been a player Of
the game for years. He is registered
at the Metropoliton and will return to
the oil producing section of West Tex
as tonight.
Judge Sebastian has been resi-
dent of Texas forty-four years. He
| came from Missouri forty-four years
ago and he hiked it from Granbury to
Breckenridge, a distance of eighty
five miles, in the cheerless month Of
December, after his arrival in the
Lone Star State. Judge Walthall of
the Ell Paso court of civil appeals and
Sebastian we erstruggling young law
yers at Breckenridge in the frontier
days of long ago.
Sebastian has served as judge, law
maker of the lower house, state sena-
tor and member of the state board of
pardons.
American Chairman
He is a close personal and political
| friend of James E. Ferguson and
when the latter organized the Ameri-
can party the veteran leader of Ste
phens county moved out of the Demo-
cratic camp with the former Governor,
and became the state chairman of the
executive committee of the party.
Speaking of political conditions, he
| said to a representative of The Rec
ord:
eve will hold the state convention
of the American party in the city of
Fort Worth early in August. We were
unable to secure the Chamber Of Com
merce auditorium, but finally landed
the big auditorium Of the First Bap-
tist church of Fort Worth. Hon
Temple Harris McGregor will be our
nominee for Governor and a full state
ticket will be nominated. Unless
signs are misleading Thomason and
Neff will be the leaders in the Demo
cratic primary on July "a, and will
be in the run off. All the reports that
| have received indicate that the man
from Ell Paso and the man from Wa
co will fight it out in the second pri-
mary and then the winner will go to
the mat with Senator McGregor, who
is an able campaigner and has wide
acquaintance throughout Texas"
Has Been Prosperous
Chairman Sebastian is said to be on
easy street, after practicing law, and
fighting battles for the Democratic
party for almost half century. He
owned eighty acres in the oil belt OF
Stephens county when the big rush
came. He did not sell his land.
| Now he says Stephens county prom
ises to be one of the richest oil pro.
ducing sections of America. Brecken.
ridge has a population of 10000 tc
$1,000 and there are six big oil towns
or camps in the county that have new
er been named.
He praises the railroad builders
for the big influx, the growth Of
Breckenridge and the rapid develop.
