Greenough, Indianapolis state president, will preside at the round tabic discussion tonight. Mrs. Greenough was Ihe principal speaker a' ihe session today. The subject o! her talk was "Looking Forward.” She discussed many phases of the work of Hie league, both in Indiana and nationally. She referred to the recent pocket veto” by Governor Harry G Leslie of the Misener permanent registration bill, which pa eel both houses of the general assembi.. ; s follows: “Tli members 1 the league felt that permanent registration of voter in the state was essential, na was the only state in the unit n v it!.out a legal list of vote; ho aid “A permanent legistr: i,< u bill was drafted which met tiu three cardinal principles of a so 1 registration system convenin'! *■ Li 11 ic voter, inexpensive operation, and prevention of fraudulent voting. After a strenuous and bitter fight the bill was passed by the recent general assembly, but was pocket-vetoed by the Governor. Registration is Needed. “In the meantime, Indiana needs registration of voters. It is the best and cheapest burglar insurance available. In a state with a biennial budget of $55,000,000, with a i.ixablo wealth of at least $5,188.:;r, 6,739. with a yearly income from rdl sources of $134,346,548, it is of vital importance to safeguard our elections. ' Public officials charged with the , i responsibility of disbursing these urns should by all means be select--erl by the honest votes of the people and 'not by manipulated elections.” The scope of the program of the ■ Indiana League of Women Voters has widened. Mrs. Greenough said, •until now it embraces study and atientirn to many problems of human relationships in Indiana and. through the National League of Women Voters, the United States as •a whole. " I iio next year of league activity ■should be one of study and preparation. The question of authorizing /the next Indiana general assembly ■to call a constitutional convention "will be submitted to the voters of . the state and it should be our duty to stimulate interest In this subject. '/Since adoption of the Kellogg plan ;of multi-lateral treaties outlawing war. the question of a medium to • solve international difficulties by peaceful methods of increasing importance. Study Ts Urged “Study groups should continue to /function in various phases of the ; league program of work, with special emphasis on efficiency in government. And under this department we should continue the study of best ways to insure clean clec•tions. - “The radio has become of great ■importance in stimulating interest -in and discussion of public questions The National League of /Women Voters was quick to recognize this fact and Tor two years has furnished distinguished educational programs, received in Indiana /each Tuesday night.” * Mrs. Greenough said the goal of /ihe Indiana league for 1928 had •been an increase of approximately :'5 pec cent in all activities of the •organization and that this goal had ‘been obtained.

Elaborate Garb Silly for Babies BY MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Women arc susceptible to adroit flattery, especially where their children are concerned. The expensive shops always take this quality into account when dealing with us. The other day a friend and I were paying a visit to a sumptuous establishment and listened in on an interesting Tale. A couple of nicely groomed, but only moderately rich, women were standing with the saleslady before a show case resplendent with baby clothes. It was an artistic layout: The usual stork on one leg; bassinette lined with taffeta; tiny shoes, rattles; gaudy blankets and teddy bears. The three were examining an elaborate little coat for a 3-month-old child. It was made of shell pink chiffon with an inner lining of silk in the same shade and had the required amount of faggoting and hemstitching and drawn work and French knots and smocking and what not that is suposed to enhance baby garments. The salesgirl was luring them on, using sentiment for bait. “Isn’t this the darling thing, M.s. Jones? Really two coats in 011 c, you see. How adorable your sweet little midget would be in it! 1 simply adore tiny babies. I just love to dress them up. I always think of roses when I see them, the dear, cuddly, sweet-smelling angels.” Mrs. Jones fell. All three women were kidding themselves along, of course. Their good sense shouted that such gorgeous raiment was not suitable for an infant, and that nothing comes so near being foolish extavagance as silk and satin and chiffons for tots. But sentiment and poise won the day. We all can agree with the astute saleslady that babies arc aborablo. But we also know' that it is only after a good bath and a rub-down with some perfumed talcum that they ever smell like roses. They have, too. a habit of gurgling and drooling and spitting that is decidedly hard on chiffon. They love to chew' on everything that comes within reach of their fists and w'hen it comes to this habit they are no respectors of silk. Throwing pearls before swine is sound good sense as compared to spending a small fortune on infants’ dress up clothes. No baby of any intelligence likes being dolled up and all of them prefer the nude state. With them it's comfort before everything and heaven help the bonnet string that gets into their clutches. Slate Card Party Social Club of St. Francis de Sales will give a card party Friday afternoon and night at Brookside Community house. Brookside park. AH games will be played. Mrs. P. E. Hunt is in charge.

‘Dressmaker TottchShown in All Garb BY FRANCES PAGET Copyright. 1929. by Style Source: NEW YORK. April 12.—That a positive climax of the trend in dressmaker technique has been reached is the most convincing manifestation of the import styles. The “dressmaker type" designation has been more in use in describing the new season's fashions this year than any other one term, as it definitely hails the most important factor for style at present. The dressmaker touch is appai - cnt. in simplest frocks—"simplest” being a relative term, for actually hardly anything is simple, as witness the blouse, skirt mid children's wear. The “dressmaker technique" arries with it two connotations—a generally softer personality and a very much worked-up composition. And thase the Paris couturiers have developed with infinite detail Vast Detail in Skirls It is in skirts chiefly that a vast amount of detail and intricate design occurs, and thus we sec a single flounce that, is cut circularly to begin with, then slashed, shaped at the top with fan-shaped seams, and finally, irregularly scalloped and cut at both top and bottom. All this work, fortunately, is not obvious except in so far as it. produces individuality in the shaping of the garment, but its presence never tails to impress the woman who may question the necessarily higher price of a frock with this workmanship. Touches Given Eingeria While the “dressmaker technique” description is applied to everything else besides dresses, it seems to be inseparable with the vogue for oncpiece dresss, nearly always cf princess or semi-princess development. Trimming details such ns scarfs and lingerie touches that conbribute to the “dressmaker technique." are. strongly evident in the imports, whether the frocks arc of tailored description or more formal. Jackley-Ehert Miss Abigail Ebert, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Neak Ebert, Frankton, became the bride of David Jackley, Anderson, at the Christian church. They will make their homo in Peru. Sorority Plans Meeting Alpha chapter, Alpha Beta Gamma sorority, will be entertained tonight at the home of Miss Lulu Hahn, 705 Weghorst street.
