Ml I 4ftiJ Here are shoes that always look well, wear well, and hold their shape under the most severe strain. These qualities, together with their becoming style and comfortable fit, have brought these shoes into high favor with women who make wise selection of their footwear.

The pretty custom among the children, of leaving a May bas ket at the (lir of a friend, was not overlooked last Friday morn ing for many children were up bright anil early to take baskets of flowers to their little friends and the childish heart waa made light and happy. Mrs. E. E. l'aildock, soprano, was soloist at the Methodist church Sunday naming. Her Bong was 'tost hea ily received. Mrs. Knapp was ao-'ompanist. The May day darunjr party giv en by the Vacant as last Friday night was a very smart social event. The club colors, laven der and white were artistically carried out in all the appoint ments, and suspended May has kets tilled with fragrant lilacs centered the spacious dancing hall. The last few days being so ideal, picnic parties are being en ticed to rustic seem s.

The h tliea' husbands remained at home and could easily be distinguished from the other men. They had been coaxed up so early they I looked just a little ? sleepy.

L. Q. REEVES. Phont ADS ADDRESSED TO LADIES ON THIS PAGE ARE PULLERS HEY Hold Their Shape One of the greatest difTicul tie with many shoe is their tend ency to stretch and lose shape after being worn a short time. We have solved this trouble for women who call on us for Utz & Dunn Co. Shoes o oooo u, o', ,OOOOOOOOIX00000" wore joint hostesses to a large gathering of friends. 1 he pretty home of Mrs. Pat ton was made more attractive bj an artistic arrangement of a pro fusion of Spring flowers and May baskets, which madi? a pictur esque background for the hand somely gowned ladies. Nine tables were arranged for the ever pleasing game of five hundred. At the conclusion of the games it was found that Mrs. Claude Skinner had captured the first prize, a beautiful brass rose bowl. To round out the pleasure of the afternoon, the hostess served a most refreshing ice course to the company. STYLES IN DANCING Just as the t ew and extreme styles in dress give occupation to the modistes, so do the extreme styles in dancing revie the busi ness of the dancing academies. In the long period, following the abolition of all fancy steps, when nothing, but the staid waltz and two-step were in good form, the dancing masters were hard put to it to make a living. The ccming of the tango, with its amazing variations and possi bilities, makes business for the tettchers. just as the old High land sehottische, the polka, ma zurka and numerous other dainty lances gave the dancing masters enough to do to instruct the youth of olden time. And the resources of the in ventors of the new dances, now that the bars have been let down tordinit the freakish steps, are unlimited. We may expect rap ididly changing styles in dancing hereafter, something fresh ev ery season to match the new gown or coitTurj. THE CRAB CLUB Mr. and Mrs. t'onkey received the members of the Crab Club at their home last rriday evening. After a handsomely apointed dinner the company occupied the remainder of the evening with cards and social converse. THE HOME (iROCLRY SPI-CIALlSiT Miiln lOll REPUBLICAN VOTERS SHOULD BEWARE Party Should Be Represented on National Committee Cy a Republican The Ki puhllnans of Oregon are en- I titled to have a Republican named as the National Republican Committee man from this St:ite. C. W. Ackereon, who cblms to be a Republican, la a I candidate, lie reentered a a i'rosres sive January X, VjU. Then algned peti tion or II V. Cos to be I'rogretiBive N.iiioiial Commit teemaii.

Ilia candi dacy Is being actively backed by par ties hohtile to the Republican purty and haling personal lntere.;lH and pri vate personal grudget. to nerve. His erratic and excitable temperament has frequently led him to flood tlio col umns of the pres.i w ith violent attacks upon the Republican party and vicious personal abuse of prominent Republi cans and lifelong residents of the Stale. It is a grave abuse for parties who are not Republican to register as such. It Is a k raver abusu for outsldera to attempt the capture of a political par ty to gr-itify a personal grudge and to promote party discord. It Is an abuse against which fair-minded men of all parties will rlso In protest. We can never have a reunited party by pushing to the front political hotheads and men who are political reformers simply for the sake of office. Having been a Republican only twenty-four hours when he announced hla candi dacy for the highest honorary position In the gift of the party, is some indi cation of what Mr. Ackerson's motive was in registering as a Republican. As Hon. Ralph K. Wllllums is the only Republlcun who is a candidate for Republican Nutlonal Committeeman, we feel warranted In urging all loyal Republicans In the state to give him their earnest and enthusiastic support.
