Once more attention is called
to the empty news box posted in
front of the post Office in which,
up to date nothing has been found
in the way of news items. A little
more dust accumulated on the
top.

From One Interested

When we women go to the polls on
Nov. End, it behooves us to think of
the near future. What do the two
leading candidates for the Presidency
of the U. S. stand for in regard to
war as we'll as on the liquor ques-
ton? We know they are both in IA
vor of war and as soon as their op-
portunity comes they are ready for
the blow to fall on the defenseless
If we can do no better let us at least
put in a protest against war and liq-
uor by voting for one of the candi-
dates regardless of party.

general purpose are the polo coats English in looks and precision in tai loring. They are short and com fortable for walking, with handy pockets, kid or self belts. For dres- blue serge cape with shirred taf- feta "flattering'' collar, which milady will stamp her approval in her first glance. In the street and after noon dresses, the designers have re- sorted to wide variations. However, short sleeves are invariably the rule. Taffeta holds first place, fig ured georgette and foulards running close second. Frocks are circular as well as slim, but more often a basque like bodice tops decided ly bouffant skirt. The quaint effect is increased by unusual hand embroi- dery or stitchery.
 The smart combinations of materi- als are most interesting. A change able taffeta frock used for it's ef- fectiveness tunic of embroidered baptiste and filet lace, An individual model of navy taffeta had overskirt and collar of filet lace and white organdy, very short sleeves and a narrow tuo-tone ribbon gave the bit of color needed. There is a vogue for transparent hats . Liserie straw and maline combined, perhaps the crown entirely of straw with ma line brim, or all maline with band of straw about the crown and clev- CT application beneath the brim.
 Telephone flowers give a bit of color where wanted. The tailored sailors are very smart. Hats for sports wear are featured in taffeta, ribbon georgette and batavia in the pastelle shades and are simply ir- restible. And the leghorn is back again, in the 'picture type" with it's adornment of ribbon and flowers.
