IND., May 11. Political leaders .of both political parties are going up against a difficult proposition in their campaign for the organization of women's clubs throughout the state. Both state organizations are doing their best to organize women's clubs, and In many places they have succeeded in doing so. But there has recently been started a. movement among club women to keep the women of the state from j affiliating In this manner with either of the old parties. These women take the position that women voters should not be in a hurry to align themselves with a party, but that they should wait and vote as women, not as Republicans or Democrats. This attitude on the part of the women is causing some concern in political circles. The Republicans have organized an elaborate department for the organization of women voters, and the Democrats have announced that they would appoint ho women from each district as members of the state executive commitee so as to handle the women voters in the campaign. Just what if any difference this will make in the campaign arrangements remains to be seen. It is not believed that TIMES FASHION

BEDS The bed was originally designed as a soft spot for the tired man to lie on. Most hotels and some private houses have utterly missed the idea. The average hotel bed is either humpbacker, sway-backed, suffers from lumps or is otherwise deformed. Next in point of atrociousness s the sanitary couch. It may be sanitary but it doesn't even possess the advantages of that old-time instrument of sudden death, the folding-bed. The folding-bed would occasionally serve to shut a man's wife up when nothing else could, but the sanitary couch can't even do that. Then there's the narrow, hallbedroom bed. This type has to be fitted with stirrups before you can climb on it

organization of women outside of tbe women's clubs can be prevented, because the many thousands of unorganized women throughout the state will probably not regard themselves as bound by any recommendation that might come from women's organization!. But the many thousands of club women and members of women's organisations may follow the lead and stay out of political organizations, at least until they find out Just how things are going to line up. The Legislative Council of Indiana Women has decided to take a card Index poll of the women voters of the state, and they will keep this poll for their own use. When it is remembered that, there are between 700.000 and 800. 00 women voters In Indiana the magnitude of this task Is realized. Auxiliary councils' will be organized in the various counties and they will be asked to poll their own counties.
