The Interior Department, in its dealings with the Benham Falls pro ject, seems to be - engaged In the well known pastime entitled "passing tbe buck." This, at least, is the con elusion to be drawn from the news report reprinted in this paper from a Portland daily, in which it is stated that the department is not anxious to go over the state in the matter of opening the lands to settlement. The situation is appeallngly beauti ful. Tbe state has asked for an ex tension of time on the contract. The Stern land office, to whom the re quest is made, replies that before the petition is granted, you must show me what you have done and that it Is possible for you to proceed. In answer the state does nothing and . then when the rude Commercial club of Bend says to the land office, "Get active. : The state has done nothing. Open the lands," the paternal bureau says nothing can be done, as the state has requested otherwise. At thn Innr mpptinr nf tho Pnm. mercial club it was reported tbat the only thing remaining in the effort to get relief from the land office was for the individual members of the club to write the Oregon representa tives in Washington and others who might help. This latest plea from the department suggests still another course. That is an appeal to the Des ert Land Board to present to the Washington authorities the true facts Jn the case, namely, that it is not the state that asks for the extension, j hut the C. O. I. Co., and that since the company has not complied with the department reauests, the board (a ready to have the Pfpjecf cancelled and opened to entry. " the ocean voyage to Paris are pay ing hard American dollars here to day for 191? dress models. War permitting, the buyers and models will soon be back In the United States dictating what Ib proper for Amor lean womon folkB to wear. When the United Press correspond ent dropped in at a turnout show room, the American buyers, the rllrec toire, peg tops and ninny other new creations were there. It will himlly be such a lavish display of feminine ankle on American Btrccts thlB spring and summer. Nevertheless, the now frocks will hang about seven Inches from torra flrma. An expert might describe waist-line or draped In folds or loops over the hips and tapering to a very narrow skirt at the bot tom. The "peg" effect is arranged by the fullness at the top buttoning into a pleat or two at the hem. A red cloth short coat with a grey "peg" skirt is perfectly proper for the future. Red rimmed buttons may hold the side fullness to the narrow width at the bottom. Many of the new models have coats and skirts of vartous and different colors. Knitted silk jersey Is a popular material, the designers say. Polka dotted foulards are also extremely popular and tus sore are not far behind in the run ning. Red, pink and crystal beads will be extensively used for trim ming. The new ball gowns, evening and dinner gowns will sweep clean this year that Is it the wearers are not careful to hold them off the floor. Again, an expert might say of the new evening directoires: The skirt is long and narrow. It splits three or four inches up the bias seam. Mannequins wearing these before the American buyers today, seemed to have stepped out of the fashion books of five years ago. The skirt drapes the floor an inch all around and trains out behind. Jet crystal and fine laces are the newest things in trimming. The most popular of the new directoire models is declared by the Americans to be that of black satin with blue and black crystal fringe hanging panel-like at the sides to the knees. BROWN GIVES OPINION (OroKoulnn.) SALEM, Or., March 11. In re spouse to nil inquiry from L. K. Smith, clerk of the Redmond School District, Attornoy-aonernl Brown to day furnished nil opinion to State School Superintendent Churchill rein ttve to school district boundaries. He advised the superintendent that where a portion of a school district that Is not bonded Ib merged with a dlRtrtct that Is bonded the liabilities fall upon' the new portion, equally with the old portion, or on the con trary It a portion of a dletrlcl which is bonded is merged into a district not bonded the. liability as to the old district censes, as fur as the por tion of the district bo merged Is coir corned. WIERD ANSWERS MADE DURING EXAMINATION FREAK STYLES TABOO SAY DRESSMAKERS Designers Will Compete for Prizes - ' Offered for Simplest Patterns ? in Women's Wear. ' (Br United Press to the Bend Bulletin) CHICAGO, March 13. Freakish styles In the costumes of American women are doomed. The 1500 designer-dressmakers, here for the sixth semi-annual con vention of the Fashion Art "League of America said so today. They will compete for prizes offered for the best and simplest designs of various gowns, including tailleur, afternoon and evening frocks. Exhibitions of the gowns on man nequins will feature the convention, which ends Thursday evening. As an example of the . pressure the de signers are bringing to bear in tlio effort to eliminate freakish modes, the style committee has Issued an edict, tabooing "summer furs."

The designers, however, are dis criminating carefully between the sensible and the extreme, and have therefore made no effort to banish the very practical short skirt. "Skirts are to hang straight, with two to two and a half yards about the hem. They should be six to eight Inches from the ground a 'tiny bit" longer than last season," said Mme. Allie Bailey, president of the league. Dresses are to be of wool, or com bination of wool and silk, and the hats, parasols and other accessories are to be of a, contrasting color to enliven the ensemble. STYLES GOING BACK TO FIVE YEARS AGO Director!)) Gown and Peg Top Skirts are Shown in Paris Shops as Models for Season. By Wilbur S. Forrest, (United Press Staff Correspondent) PARIS, March 13. The directoire gown has come back. It Is In Paris today. Soon it will be in New York and a little later it probably will be all over the United States. Tho now directoire, however, the famous Paris designers decree, may be used only for dinner and evening gowns. For the street It Is taboo and must give way to "peg tops."

Two other definitions for the word were perhaps Just as venturesome: One little Johnny called it "the re sult of liquor," and a demure though conscious lass branded It as "the worship of more than one god." Then there were other answers like these: "The first woman In Congress was Betsy Rose." "The character Naaman appears In Omar Kajamm." "The ukulele is an instrument of torture." "Tii underground railway Is the method'of communication with Con gress revived by President Wilson." "A mediator is a piece of hot iron shooting through the sky." "Shadow.
