THE day is gone when the "inde-
pendent woman" marched sturdily
of to work in shirtwaist, skirt and
Jacket. She might have been an ex-
ceilent secretary, but she was hardly
feminine. The utmost simplicity may
still be retained but with it comes
all the allurement of exquisite de-
sign and charm, as in this frock
whose only frivoloties are the really
lovely "sNn-burst" tucking at the
neck, and the quite new circular
flares Of the skirt. Consciousness
that one is appropriately and well
dressed leaves the mind free for the
important business of the day. Very
new and used extensively this year
are the sheer wool crepes and other
light weight woolens. The simplicity
of this general daytime dress makes
it a good medium for self trimming.
If a silk crepe or crepe Roma is used
a very good quality should be bought.

Another One Spoiled.

Scoop and the Col. had decided to go
the New York Daily Mirror one better
this week and give the Republicans
readers the real outside story about
the nude negro who was found along
the shores of Deep Greek Lake last
week, wandering about with his BIRTH
day suit on and seemingly enjoying IT..
AS soon as his presence was dis
covered Col. Bell gathered his ac-
cessories together for the masterpiece
which would startle the entire county
into subscribing for The Republican
He took the picture as the negro was
gamboling on the green near Gin
dale" bridge and brought it to Oak
land for the exposure.
But somebody exposed it's presence
and the Ladies' Aid, the Woman's
Physique Club, and Judson Loar, Of
ficial censor for Bernard Gender,
theatre manager, and after cutting
out all improperties, these parties
turned the remains over to Scoop, so
that a cut could be made of it.

EXTRA WRONG FONTS
By Scoop
Startling Revelation.
By Scoop

Some startling bit of news has just
been exposed by Col. Jeems Bell, who
has kept the secret in the dark recess
es of his heart for at least two years,
and kept hid the pictures that would
have revealed part of the story.
Of course, everyone, including
Scoop, knows that the law requires
candidates to file a report of all eZ-
penditures. Not knowing with whom
to file his papers, when Bill Casteel
ran for Sheriff two years ago, he fill
ed them with the Col, thinking that
such a responsible man should know
what to do with them.
The Col. however, kept them hidden
until last Monday when the Sheriff
tried to pull some funny stuff at Bells
studio. The Col. was merely taking
flashlight picture of a wedding
group, but the smoke grew so thick
that the sheriff thought he was max
ing some home brew and came near
arresting him on distinction. The
Col. got mad and gave Scoop the
Sheriff's filing papers and a picture
of him duling the campaign. Ii coed
for nothing else, it at least is truth
full account of what Bill suffered and
what the "cost" was.
Here 1t is.
"Lost 1,349 hours of sleep thinking
about the election. Lost two front
teeth and lot of hair in a personal
encounter with an opponent. Donated
one beef, four shoats and five sheep
to county barbeques. Gave away two

kissed 1876 babies. Put up four
stoves. Kindled IA fires. Walked A.
076 miles. Shook hands with $3.50
people. Told 1O,101 lies and talked
enough to make in print 1000 vol

"Attended 16 revivals and was bap-
tized four times by immersion and
twice by other ways. Contributed $50

The seriousness of his con- dition cannot be accurately de- termined at once, it was said at New Britain General hospital today. as the extent of the spine injury is problematical.

Mayor-Elect Expected to Remove Lnder as Chairman of Assessors-Vacancy in Craftsmanship of Public Works Board to Be Filled-Police Commis.

The biennial city election now q matter of history, political conjec- ture today turned to commissioner ships and the extent of house clean ing" Mayor-elect Paonessa will in- augurate after he takes the oath of office next Tuesday noon.
 Of especial interest is the question of the chairmanship of the board of finance and taxation. which is held by Senator Edward F. Hall. Hall was appointed early in the Paoncssa administration and was retained by Mayor Weld. Chairman Hall took an active interest in the campaign to elect Councilman Donald l.. Bart lett and took occasion to contradict Mayor elect Paonessa on the sewer age question. one of the main topics of the democratic campaign. Hall and Paonessa publicly questioned each others knowledge of the mat ter under discussion, and in view of this fact political prognosticators to- day forecast the removal of Senator Hall. arguing that to retain him would be inconsistent on the part of Paonessa.
 Itndcr To Lose Chairmanship
 It is believed in democratic circles to be a certainty that Thomas Linder will be removed from the chairmanship of the board of asses sors. although he will continue to be the city's appraisal engineer under a contract which has several years yet

Mayor elect Paonessa has declared against giving one man too much power over property appraisals and he does not approve the scheme now III vogue, whereby Linder is adviser to the board of which he is chair man. The effect of a change such as is said to be in contemplation would be to reduce Linder's salary by S250 and place his work under the supervision of another.

 One of the mayors first acts will be to fill the chairmanship of the board of public works, vacant since the resignation of Reginald Towers. The street superintendency is also to be filled.
