New to Have Opposition.

One Of the most interesting situa-
lions of tho year will develop in
Indiana. The incumbent, Harry S.
New, will seek to return, but he Is
sure to have formidable opposition.
For some months there have been
desultory calls for ex-senator Al
bert ]. Beveridge to re-enter active
political life. Just lately these
calls have approached such a de-
gree of organized capitalization as
to, make 1t likely that Beveridge
will contest the primaries with
New. New will have the backing
of the Republican party organiza-
ton. 1t is also expected that the
repeated public evidences of his
close personal association with
Harding will be relied on to help
him.
But 1t goes without saying that
Beverage is one of the outstand-
ing political figures of his time.
He will have the beneht of a strong
residuum of the old Progressive
sentiment which formed his po-
litical strength during the many
years when he was in the Senate
Since his retirement Mr.. Beveridge
has made such a fruitful use of
his leisure as Is alone enough to
mark him as distinguished man
and to justify those of his admirers
who want to return him to the
Senate. Beveridge's Life of John

did not withdraw his own interpre-

his Secretary of State had given the
treaty language a different Inter

did not oppose that Interpretation
and know that the treaty had been
negotiated and signed in this sense.
But after the President spoke. then
the demonstration on Capitol Hill,
which had been totally unimpres-
sive, took on an entirely different
character. and in all quarters there

amending the treaty.

fact that the four-power treaty ap-

IN WEARING SPORT CLOTHES
Demand for Garments for Outdoor
Use; Women Devote More Time
to the Country.

In the past few years, since women
have become interested In all sorts of
STYLES which were once more or less of

of clothes for sports wear has filled an
ever-increasing field.
Since sports and outdoor life have
claimed our smartest women, then, the
clothes which 60 with them have had
to keep apace in chic and cleverness.
The chic woman realizes that the
country club garment Is In its proper

place for the afternoon gown. and that
it is not in its proper place when worn
on a shopping expedition.
She understands the fitness OF

of our less clever women have yet to

SELECTION OF THE HEADGEAR
Tall and Short and Thin and Stout
Women Should Choose Hats
to Suit Build.

1t cannot be denied that woman's
hat will make or mar her appearance.
A tall full-faced woman ALMOST invari-
ably finds that hat with broad
brim or one which is wide ut the sides
will add to the charm of her face and
give proportion to her figure.
" she should decide on small hat
she should select one which is firm and
definite in shape and, If possible, hav-
ing definite contour of angles.
Women who are disposed to be both
short and stout should adopt a small,
rather severe type of hat.
For the thin face n soft round hat
with a small curled-up brlm made of
flexible material such as velours OF
ribbon will prove becoming and effec
tive. The hat should not be too big Oh
drawn down on the head, as this gives
fiatteneddown and dwarfed effect tC

his city colleague, an investigation by

veaed. 1t is stated that in The re-
mote country districts there are plenty
of country doctors to take care of pa
