BLUFFTON, Ind. Dec. 11.-"Lip-
stick or rouge, sir?"
This question is being asked by
Bluffton BARRIERS Of their younger GUS
toners.
Many young men are adopting the
art Of their fair sisters and are turn
ing to camOufiage to better their
personal appearance. The practice is
not confined to the city youth; one
barber asserted that most of paint
inGs" were customers having resi-
dence in the country. Within one
hour a three-chair barber shop had
six applications for rouge by young
men of high school and college age.
1T was but a small step from pow
der to rouge" said one boss barber
when we first used talcum powder,
there was objection by those who
considered 1t effeminate, but go
anywhere you like now and you'll find
the old and the young a willing sub
ject to talcum after the shave.
Il can't say that the use of rouge Is
1 fad" he continued. The young
men are urged to-~keep up a good ap-
pearance just as much as the young
women, and l don't see why a little
,ouge artistically used would be amiss
N this respect.
Anyway, / have ordered an addi-
ional supply of rouge and lip-sticks."

everything they can get.
Many State departments, particularly
the department Of education, are seek
ing more employees. Here is an excellent
opportunity for members of the Legisla-

salary increases. These things can be OBJ
talned-if the Republican majority sticks
together.

WAGE BOOSTS, TOO.
Governor Goodrich is going to oppose
any movement along this line. He will
tell the Legislature that the cost of Iiv-
ing is coming down and that increased
salaries as consequence will not be nee
essary. He will tell the assembly that
1t is time to call a halt in expenditures.
He may call attention to the doubling
of the tax rate under his tax board, but
1t is prObabler he will not go into details
as to just how all this came about. He
probably will ask that no more unneces-
Eary taxes be levied.
Governor Goodrich Will be Governor
during the first four days Of the session.
During that period Governor-elect War

officially. The present Governor Will
have this length OF time to get before
