one of the most useful garments

says a fashion correspondent. DO you

the times when it looks entirely right

the costume Of which 1t has become

1t will be dreadful blow to some
women to be told that the costume
blouse IS not really smart when it is
worn with suit skirt. 1t is all right
when the coat is buttoned in place,
but wien that outer covering is re-
moved, how different. This costume
blouse has it's place, to he sure, but it
is not with the tailored or even the
semi-tailored suit. There only the
tailored blouse or the soft, handmade
French blouse has Il rightful place and
a sufficient reason to call itself a part
OF the whole.
There is the blouse made of an all
over brocade or of an all-over piece Of
embroidery. 1t Is one of the hand

most prolific season. and it is apt to

lines, with no added trimming. 1t
comes in the most beautiful and rich
colors, and 1t should most properly be
worn with skirt that is low in tone,
soft in texture and full enough in
width to make II a graceful fOunda-

CARE OF HAIR IS IMPORTANT
Avoid Drying Quickly With Artificial
. Heat; Good Soap, Brush and
Comb Necessary.

To prevent the hair from splitting.
here are few things to remember,
says the Woman's Home Companion.
Avoid drying the hair quickly with
artificial heat Don't use hot curling
irons too often. Consider carefully
what soap you use. Never use one
with drying qualities See that your
hair brush is in good condition. Worn
bristles and combs with broken teeth
are one cause of split hairs. The
best brush to use. whether your hair
Is dry. oily or normal, is one not al.
ways so easy to get. 1t has the bris.
ties arranged in lunches. with the
middle bristles the longest. Don't
brush your hair while 1t is damp, and
don't use too soft brush. For gen.
eral use. have brush with moderately
stiff bristles. To give luster to the
hair soft brush is all right, but
for daily cleansing use avoid it.

McArdle stated. At first the governor
favored nine. then twelve were plann-
ed, later fourteen, but finally the
figure was placed at ten as the most
logical. The departments are desig-
mated: public works, business control,
efficiency, taxation and examination
health, conservation and DEVELOPMENT
labor and industries, agriculture.
licenses, and fisheries and game. Each
is to have director who in return
is to appoint supervisors of the re-
spective divisions.
The abolition of commissions, Mr..
McArdle asserted, was deliberate be-
cause the state government was de-
signed to serve the people as a unit
and no class or organization was
entitled to special recogn' tion he
claimed. He sharply criticized the
method in force in commission ap-
pointments wherein some labor
organization recommended two men
for a position on the commission one
of whom refused to accept and the
governor was obliged to appoint the
other. This practice, Mr.. McArdle
stated, had led to unsatisfactory re-
suits because such members were not
accountable to the governor, but to
the organization which they repre-
sented. The designat ton of directors
and single executives generally was
for the purpose of achieving direct
responsibility. Mr.. McArdle explained.
but at the same time he placed great
emphasis upon group consultation
The representation Of class organ
ization upon commissions he con.
sidered reprehensible, but he deemed
the consultation Of direct executive
appointees highly valuable.
/ Two Years Trial Needed.
Efficiency and economy was to be
achieved by grouping in single de-
partment functions of a like nature.
and the abolition Of offices which
were duplicated in other departments
In the general shifting and contrac-
/ ton a great many clerks and inspec-
tors would have to be sacrificed. At
the same time the heads of depart
ments were to be given greatly in
creased salaries. The saving under
this condition, Mr.. McArdle admitted,
was problematical and it would take
two years. trial to make a definitee
conclusion possible. He urged the
legislators to consider the report for
what is was worth.
l.. L. Thompson, attorney general,
explained that his connection with
the code was merely that Of a legal
craftsman and that he had nothing
to say for or against the code.
Charles Gleason, an attorney Of
Seattle. had been employed by Mr..
Thompson to draft the administrative
code and had spent most of his time
during he last two months whipping
1t inc shape. The attorney general
obviously could not, considering the
magnitude Of his regular duties, carry
out such a comprehensive work in
