White is predominant. But it is relieved and set off by trimmings of contfasting colors. Occasionally the collars and cuffs of the blouses are of brilliantly colored stde. Lines, as might be expected, are straight and narrower than the paths the wearers will tread, but freedom of movement is provided either by the flared skirt or by pleatings. There promises to be revival of the wide and floppy hat with cape linés Bangkoks and milan braids fur nishing the framework for delicately colored flower or feather trimming.

New Combinations Of Study for the Country Schools Country schools which have from to 30 classes per day with ten minute recitation periods can re- duce the number to 15 per day by the proper class combinations, with much better results, according State Commissioner of €. -Tidball, who is working in th schools of Platte county this week in company with County Superin- tendent Edith M.

The classes which are suit able for combination are arithmeti: spelling and composition, where the work is of an individual nature, anc class discussions are not sc neces sary as in history or geography.

For the final data presents much focd for thought and can not but have a significant effect on the plans of jndependents to form a permanent third party or- ganization. Nothwithstanding the great popu- larity of Theodore Roosevelt, he did not, in 1912, poll as many votes as did LaPuliette in 1924, but allowance must be made for the fact that wo- men did not vote 12 years ago. The difference, nevertheless, was only about 700,000 in favor of LaFollette. {n spite of this, LaFollette received only 12 electoral votes, while Colonel Roosevelt receiyed 85. LaFcllette was third in the popular vote as well as in the electoral vote, Roosevelt fan second in both electoral and popular vote. The most important inference is that an independent of the type of Rocsevelt and an even more radical individual like Senator LaFo letve doern’t succeed in capturing a ma- jority but simply splits one of the two old parties, In 1912, the Demo- crats benefited by the Republican break. In 1924, the Republicans had the advantage of a split in the Demo- cratic party. Mr. Wilson, 1912, was unable, how- ever, to poll a majority of the pépu ar vote, while Mr. Coolidge succeed- ed in rolling up a majority over both his opponents of more than 2,500,000 votes and, of course, in the electora! jege, had a substantial majority. nder the circumstances, the prob- lem of the progressives and inde- oendents is to find a way not only to sombine the LaFollette and Davis totals but to win back from the Re- publican ranks the millions of Demo- cratic voters who strayed from the fold because of fear of the radicalism of LaFollette or that the election would be thrown into the house of representatives for decision and that business woud suffer because of the period of uncertainty. To combine the LaFollette and Da- vis totals, however, {s easier said shan done. The very reasons which drove conservative Democrats into the Republf{can ranks might serve to hold them there again if the Demo- crats sinsply nominated a LaFollette type of candidate and there is no telling how-many more would have gone from the Democratic party if a conservative like John W. Davis had fnot been the nominee.. Yet {if the conservative wi..g of the Democratic party doesn't do something to win the Lafollette votes, the people who supported the LaFollette party will | not be won to either the Republican Jor Democratic nominees, but will stay in an independent group if a man of LaFollette's prestige happens to be the candidate and a serious {fort is made to maintain a third arty.

The Sepals can vote this year was 15,718,789, which represents conservatism. Th Democratic vote of 8,378,962 was in large part conservative too. The rad- icals had only 4,822,319 out of a to: sal of 28,920,070, which {s encourag- ing for the conservatives to say the ‘east. The radicals, on the other hand, feel encouraged—or they say they do. They hope to win even more from the Democratic party next time and then turn the latter into a liberal or- ganization, notwithstanding the op- porition of the solid south, The south usually votes for the Democratic nominee, whether he {s @ radical or a conservative, so if the radicals are out to capture the machinery of the Democratic party, they can count on no Democratic ald from the south for their nominee and the essential re- quirement is to win the northern and western states. The conservative Democrats, es- pecially those who control the party <n Illinois, New York, Masrachusetts and New Jersey, would resist the La- Follette invasion. The only hope of either the LaFollette radicals and Democratic conservatives would be a compromise on a man not quite 80 radical as the Wisconsin senator but capable 6f holding his vote, and not so conservative as John W. Da- vis. Such a Hberal might win back some of the Demotratic votes from the Republican fold. The voters of the United States reverse themselves often and there is a chance for an opposition party to corral the dis- contented elements.
