PATTERN 1879

There is a formula for chic,
that women who are no longer
slender should adopt. When
making new frocks, choose lines
that are simple-fussy details
and intricate seamings detract
from the length-giving silhou-
cite. The attractive frock
sketched today has such good
features! Note, particularly, the
surplice line of the bodice, the
graceful and comfortable cape
sleeves set in raglan scanning,
and hip yoke with pointed
seaming-these do wonders for
the figure! Make it of a printed
silk or cotton-they're so neat
and fresh-looking!

A. officials in the county be asked to
provide labor and funds for rectifying
the hazards after the present approved
program Of public projects is completed,
was overwhelmingly adopted on an aye
and nay vote after several delegates
had opposed the measure on the ground
that all available means should be de-
voted to new highway construction,
rather than for minor improvements
on existing thoroughfares.
Complaints against two Washington
utilities-the Potomac Electric Power
Co. and the Capital Transit Co.-were
referred to the Public Utilities Com

POLK'S VOTERS
FAVOR RACING
That And Pari-Mutuel Bet
ting Carry Heavily All
But One Township

TRYON, June 28.-By a vote
of 1889 to SCI, Polk county yes
terday voted to legalize horse rae
ing and pari-mutuel gambling i'll
the county.
Only one township, COOpcr's
Gap, voted against the measure,
the vote there being seven for
and Ga against. All of the five re-
naming townships cast heavy ma
jOrities for the measure.
C. o. Cooper, of SalUGa; c. j.
Lynch, of TryOn, and Grover G.
Feagan, Of the Green's Creek sec
ton, were named as racing COM
missioners by the bill passed by
the legislature and approved by
the voters yes 'erday.
Proponents of the racing propo-
sition based their appeal on the
material reduction in taxes which
would be made possible by the
revenue derived through the pari-
mutuel betting system.
Opponents of horse racing held
that it would be only a temporary
prosperity and that prospective
home owners might decide to To-
cate elsewhere because of the UNI
desirability of some Of the float
ing element which follows the
races.
The county racing commission
has been awaiting the outcome Of
the election and has made no def
mite plans for the establishment
of a race course.
Because of the time elapsing
and the distance intervening be-
tween the Florida races and the
Kentucky derby and the Maryland
preaknesS, racing enthusiasts be-
lieve that promoters of the races
would welcome the opportunity Of
establishing a between season
track.
