Clinton Bum is one of the best

his profession as being endowed with
rare judicial mind. He Is a Republi.
can in politics. who, while standing
close to the leaders Of his party. does
not wear the bride of any particular
faction, but works for the best in

should it be deemed expedient to create

conference has already been called by
Attorney General Daugherty, of the
federal court justices, to meet at an
early date and decide upon the advisa-
bility of creating new. or additional

Should this be done, and Mr. Bum
be prevailed upon, through endorse

Returning to the subject Of the
compilation and publishing of ths

that Mr.. Bum has the work Of edit

statutes well under way, and that h,
will push the work upon the Nebraska
statutes along just as fast as may be
found consistent with good and care

In this work Mr. Bum will mo-

The New Blouse.
by ANNE RITTENHOUsE.

Two things in the Paris fashions
that have come in for possibly more
comment than they have deserved
have been the long tight sleeves and
the high collars. That is, the COM
ment has been too strong if it has
led you to believe that Paris has
given up the lowered neckline or
! that, she has abandoned the short
sleeve.
For she hasn't Nor is she at all in
clined to give up the short skirt inn
mediately. There is a feeling in the
air over there that the longer skirt is
smart, or is going to be. and that the
long sleeve is distinctive, and that the
high collar is good style, but observ-
ant ones just returned who have taken
the trouble to count the number of
high -collared afternoon frocks as
compared with loW-necked ones, long
sleeves as against abbreviated ones,
long skirts as against the shorter sort,
must give the impression that French
women are 10th to adopt anything
that will change the essentials of
their clothes very materially.
In other words, if you want to have
your returned traveller from Paris as
sure you that an enormous change mas
taken place, you are going to be
greatly disappointed.
Pleasant Relief.
In the meantime. high-necked and
long -sleeved models are here as a
pleasant relief. Suits and many day
frocks will show the long clinging
sleeve, and the collar high at least in
the back, bids fair to find favor in
suits. But these things are merely
presented to US. The American wom-
an may take what she chooses or she
may take none of these things and
go her own sweet way, finding ex-
preston of her clothes sentiments in
American designs. The well-dressed
woman finds other ways of showing
that she is well dressed and smartly
dressed than by slayishly following 4
few edicts of fashion laid down anew
every three or four months.
As far as the high neck and the
long sleeve go, the American woman
seems to have taken to the long sleeve
more kindly than she has to the high
collar. In fact. some of the models
turned out of French workrooms pro-
vided with high collars have been re-
designed here in collarless form. This
is especially true Of the, separate
blouse. Many an American woman
has wisely decided to wear a high
collared effect in her suit produced by
means of high-necked waistcoat
