Bronx cheers and bombardrhents
of hoots and hisses are out of
place in Portland city council
meetings, the Federation of Wo
men’s Organizations of that city
believes. They adopted a resolu
tion this week which set forth
that “scenes of insubordination
and disorder” had characterized
recent meetings of the city council,
particularly the sessions devoted
to consideration of the repeal of
the prohibition ordinance.
The appeal was directed to the
mayor and the city commissioners
“for maintenance of law and order,
upholding their (the club wo
men’s) efforts for proper and dig
* nified conduct of the city’s busi
ness.”

Hurlburt Surveys Fashions
From Eugene Dress Shops
By CAROL HURLBURT
“Here you go a-chattering and
a-chattering about Paris styles,
London styles, and styles out of
Hollywood," said my guilty con
science to me the other day. “You
know that you can’t trot down to
London town every time you want
new shoes or fly to Paris for your
gowns. Why don’t you do some
thing about it ?”
For once I listened. I put on
my best shade of lip-stick and
scouted the shops of Eugene.
If you want to be a nice, well
dressed young person and if you
find yourself in need of a pair of
shoes, dash into Burch’s Shoe
store and look at their new shoes
of black pigskin, with a smart
French vamp.
Sport dresses of rabbit's hair
and the new lacy weaves you can
find at Beard's.
But if you want your young
man to feel protective toward you,
would advise that you purchase
one of the now spring prints at
Densmore’s. They come in char
treuse, in grey, in beige.
If the person you are interested
in making an impression upon
happens, however, to be the dean
of women, you’ll find just the out
fit you want at Gordon's. It is a
suit made with a jaunty cape, a
vest, and two skirts. Comes in
navy, in grey, or in beige.
Entering the sacred portals of
McMorran's, I found the most ap
pealing, swaggerish little leather
jacket of the decade. Made in
pastol shades of grey, beige, pink,
Blue, or dark green suede. Cost ?
Now don’t get your hopes too
high!. It’s marked at $7.50, $9.50,
and $12.50.
Said I to my conscience, “Now
I’ve done right by my public.”
"And so to bed!”
Very Little Theatre To
