New York, Aug. 9.-Fashion has introduced one lace frock after an other this season.
 In this model, lace is combined with apricot georgette and trousseau ribbons. There is a foundation of cream-colored chiffon. Then the georgette is hung with few gathers in a straight line tunic, meeting a panel that alternates lace and ribbon, at the back.
 A bodice of georgette with bertha of lace; an odd sash of georgette edged all around with tho lace, tight iy pulled. and an exceedingly good looking hat of lace with a flower be- decked crown complete the costume.

Nashville, Tenn, Aug. 9-The leg islative of Tennessee meets in special session to consider ratification of the federal woman suffrage amendment and suffrage advocates hope to com plete the list of 36 states necessary to enfranchise the women of the na- tion.

HEAD rAR1 BUREAU EXPOSES LIE

HEAD FARH BUREAU EXPOSES LIE
Attention Is called to the dispatch
on an Iowa pass Of this issue in
which President Hunt, of the Iowa
farms bureau, indignantly exposes
the attempt Of "a certain newspaper"
to deceive its readers as to the>meet-
ing between the president Of tho Iowa
farm bureau and President Garfield.
Of the federation Of labor. at the re-
cent labor convention at Fort Dodge.
The effort was to make farmers be-
lieve that President Hunt and Presi-
dent Garfield had come to an agree
ment. and that the farm bureau and
the unionists, who are striving to
punish Senator Cummins, had form
ed an alliance against the senator.
Tho fact Is that the Iowa farm bu-
rueau ana that elAment Of the feder-
alton which proposes to cut Cumming
throat are as far apart as Cummins
and the federation President Hunt,
in q speech that he had taken the
precaution to write before delivering,
plainly told the federation that the
bureau stood for anti-strike legisla-
ton. and that labor could expect no
assistance from the farms in main
tanning the right to strike" when
engaged In essential and basic indus
tries. In short. President Hunts
speech to the labor convention was q
direct endorsement Of Senator Cum
mins anti-strike proposition. which
has put the danites upon his trail.
Farmers should read President
Hunts statement carefully.
Some one has compiled q short list
OF eleven reasons why Iowa should
re-elect Senator Cummins. There
are other reasons that might be add
ed. among them the underhanded de-
ceit made use Of by "a certain news
paper" referred to by President

suNsHNE AND NENoRY,

It has been \ beautiful day wheron
to celebrate beautiful snemories-for
the memories Of our dead are always
tender and beautiful. While Mem

defended their country the obser-
vance Of 1t In q general way adds
even wider tenderness and aecen-
tuates les beauty.
Wonderful men were they whose
service We celebrate and remember
today. How wonderful mono can
realize unless he has known by
personal proplnquity and knowledge
the sacrifice and suffering they en-
dured 80 bravely and without COM
plant. OF all service that men give
to their country the proffer Of life
and future and health made and
given by those who defend our homes
and liberties afleld and afioat stands
highest For to offer and give life
for others Is the expression OF tho
greatest love man can hold for men.
And SO today IL the warriors day.
tho sadly beautiful holiday Of the
service" the celebration Of the
supreme sacrifice.
Still the flowers that smile and
CLAW among the many graves where
the plain. prosaic citizens lie after
the day has closed for them are
tributes to sacrifice and loving SER
vice given freely. The roses that
deck the spot where faithful
mother lies are not moro beautiful
or fragrant than her love and sacri-
nee to her own and to others.
Fathers who labored and sacrificed.
sisters and brothers who paid will
ingly the debt one to another Of
kinship and kindness. wives and
husbands whose tenderness can not
die while those who received 1t live
on. The little bunch Of wild flowers
cleaned by the ctllloused hands of
toll and poverty and the richest
treasures Of tho hothouse are equal
above the sod as those whose graves
its covers are equal beneath It.
A day Of kindness and love. halt
in the hustle Of tho long year TO live
again In memory with all our dead,
to honor greatly our defenders and
acclaim their sacrifice but withal
universal memorial Of Ill our dead
whose loving service lives In memory.
We are the better for this pause, to
stand for the moment with uncover
ed heads and hearts full Of tender
ness to remember. Just to remember.
