Nick Nelson of Saltwater was the
first to file. Other candidates said
to be in the making are L. w. Col
Inns and Thomas Girling of Hennepin
county.
Attorney General Hilton has so
far figured but little in the way of a
threatened rival for the Republican
nomination for his particular office,
but rivals it is said are on the way.
G. S. Goodwin, county attorney of
1santi county is said to have designs
on Mr.. Hilton's job and it is reported
that there are two othrs on the way.
This week the Republican State
Central Committee is in session and
is arranging for the presidential
delegate convention to be held in
March. Caucuses for the selection
of delegates will be held the latter
part of February. 1t is possible that
Chairman Lindquist will be author
lied to call an elimination conven-

The second district congressional
scrap has been enlivened by the en-

former state senator from that dis

regarded as strong candidate.

Hats Low And Graceful

You will notice that all the hats
pictured today are low and rather
broad. Towering effects in millinery
are not fashionable this year though

scarfs run to a hundred or even q
hundred and ten stitches, and these
wide scarfs are really shawls. They
are very practical possessions and may
be put to a number of uses. The big,
soft scarf may be worn around the
shoulders and drawn under the belt
of sport coat. or it will serve to sip
on over a thin frock when you run
out on the porch with a departing
guest. Or it may be spread across the
knees like a warm rug when you
watch football game. or even used as
an afghan when you lie down for
forty winks on the lounge.
Tan and brown seem the favored
shades for knitted scarfs this year,
but there are any number. of tan and
brown shades. Some of them merge
into the fawn tones. others have cop
perry hues. 1t is a good plan to match
your scarf to your hair-if you have
brown. red or auburn hair with golden
glints in it. The woman with black
hair should have deep blue or green
scarf, or a gray one with blue stripes.
For the gray-haired woman green
and black scarf or a gray scarf with
orange trimming. or best of all
Cerise is almost always becoming 10
gray haired women yet oddly enough
they seldom wear much of it. leaving

clothing seldom go well together, so
the gray haired woman should avoid
a tan. fawn or brown knitted scarf, If
she wants TO look her best.
The heavier the wool in a scarf the
handsomer it is; and there are many
kinds OF wool these DAYS. The three
scarfs pictured are made of three diff
ferent kinds of wool. and the wool
used has quite as much to do with
the style and attractiveness of each
scarf as the manner of knitting or
combination of colors. The scarf that
ends in coy little muff is made Of
very heavy. close-twisted worsted IN
warm henaa color and the knitting
was done rather tightly on good sized
needles. This gives the close stitch
that looks best with this sort of
worsted. About so stitches were cast
on for this scarf and there. are three

Most of the tea rooms at summer re-

from which material for whole scarf

colors of these woods were enhancing.

head. and this means rather large
crowns. The size of a crown makes

purled, and the square end pieces are
in straight back and forth knitting.
AT one end is a trimming of thick
fringe; the other end is looped up to
form a muff as the picture shows. and
a row of buttons adds further trim
ming. There is an opening in the
scarf for one end TO pass through;
then the end is tossed over the
shoulder. The knitted tam adds much
to the style of the scarf. Directions

made Of mohair wool which has the
softness and hufHness OF angora wool
without its almost prohibitive expens-

brown alternate in the scarf and the
turnover collar is a strip Of plain

would have difficulty in reproducing
the diamond shaped pattern achieved
by contrasted stitches in the stripes.
There are home knitters, however,
