Friday’s Portland Journal says:
"Dallas will probably be th6 first city
in Oregon to adopt an oridinance w hich
is practically a counterpart of the mod­
el license law of Phiklelphia. where the
liquor problem has been solved by the
most drastic kind of control and regula­
tion. Not only Dallas, but Indepen­
dence and Falls City as well, w ill adop
the same ordinance, which has been
drawn up by City Attorney Tooze, act­
ing under instructions of the city coun­
cils of these three cities.
" A petition for a vote in the local op­
tion law at the November election is
being largely signed by the voters ami
taxpayers of Polk county. It is said
that every business house in Dallas,
with one or two exceptions, has signed
the petition, Both in Falls City ami In­
dependence similar petitions are meet­
ing with the same reception. Hundreds'
of farmers throughout the county are
also adding their names to the list.
" I t is practically certain that Polk
after two years of alleged dryness, will
go back to the wet column and the busi­
ness men are anxious that the saloon
traffic in the future he regulated under
the st ictest kind of home rule influence
ami the drafting of the ordinance which
w ill be adopted bv three cities within
the next two weeks is the result.
"The ordinance itself is the most
stringent of its kind that has ever been
drawn up by any citv in Oregon tor the
regulation of saloons, It was drafted
after a conference between councilmen
in the three cities and Sidney Story,
re presenting the National Model License
Legislation association. His suggestion
that the ordinance he framed as near
like the Phildelphia law as possible, was
carried out.
"Among other tilings, the ordinance
restricts the number of saloons to one
for every 1000 inhabitants, and the least
infraction of any of the laws or ordinan­
ces governing the sale of liquor means
annulment of a license for all time to
come.
"Probably the best feature of the or­
dinance, ami one which eliminates trou­
ble in the future, is the fact that the sa­
loons under this law will be conducted
the same as any other business. There
will be no screens, no blinds, no luck
rooms, and none of the other features
which heretofore have brought their ev­
il influence. The traffic will have to he
carried on openly ami above board, and
in plain sight of the entire city."

A Fashion Chat on Frocks for Little Girls

Some mother* let their little girl* wear wash dregae«
all year round, and when the cooler weather comes on,
the heavier wash materials like linen, percale, pique and

Practical mothers of growing girls favor the one-piefi«
frocks mainly for the reason that they can be slipped on
and of! so easily and laundered with very little trouble.
The Magyar blouse effect is being worn by children
and is decidedly becoming to the little ones.
The
dress, which may be worn with or without a guinipc, is
now cut in one with the sleeve cap and is closed the en­
tire length in back with buttons and buttonholes either
visible or concealed by a fly. This type of dress is quite
popular for children this season. A very striking dress
made in this style was seen at one of the large stores
tliat make a specialty in children’s clothes. It was de­
veloped of tan pongee and a single box plait at each side
of the front and hack extended from shoulder to bem.
This fotmed the main adornment of the dress. It had
s fancy yoke of some contrasting material, but this feature
could be omitted. The neck of the dress was cut in Dutch
round style and the belt was made of the yoke material.

Frocks for party wear are almost invariably made of
batiste, nainsook, lawn, dimity and all-over embroidered
materials. Lace and embroidery are used for decoration
purposes. Embroidered flouncing might be used for
making the skirt of a dress while for the waist and sleeves
embroidered batiste could be used. Dotted Swiss and
embroidered crepes with dainty colored ribbons for sashes
and rosettes make very pretty party dresses. Hand em­
broidery on children's dresses will always remain in
vogue and nothing can be daintier or more charming.
Shirrings on dresses is also a good suggestion and PIC ­

high or low neck, and with full length puff sleeves or
elbow length shirred sleeves. It can be made with or
without the bretelles, and the attached straight gathered
skirt with or without the ruffie. The sizes are 6-8-10 and
