Whether in dart colors to match the suits or in light pastel shades, sheer-ness Is the dominant style feature of the fall waists, says the Dry Goods Economist- It ia expected that the dark waists to match the suits will be In vogue as the fall season advances, but the early buying favors the white and pastel shades. Sheer silk crape Is again taking the lead with the early Torlc the considered the best natured. of the little army of clerks and stenographers who serve the State. This belief is based upon the rather unusual condition mat al! who are on the nay roll of that department receive their saianes once msteao. or twice a month, as is the case with those who are emplojed in ali otner State departments.

A years ago a law was enacted which provided that all who worked for the State should receive their salaries twice monthly instead of monthly. This step was taken because it was found that the Jong wait between pay days frequently caused much embarrassment. It was shown that between the first of one month and-the first of another was a space of time few emplojes could weather without Inconvenience; hence, the law was changed. The putting into effect of the system to pay twice a month required additional clerical positions in many of the departments which were created and filled." But this condition did not prevail in the State department of highways. Because of the large amount of field and work and the very large number of employes, it was found almost impossible for that department to make up the pay roll twice a month without revolutionizing the entire system of office administration.

Yet there was the law as plain as' could be, stating that all State employes should receive their salaries twice each month. Obviously there was but one thing" to do; to secure the co-operation of the employes in the department and secure from them the right to withhold the monthly stipend until the end of the month instead of dividing la into two separate payments. This was oc-cordingiy done. As conditions now exist the employes of the State department of highways are resigned to their fate of monthly pay checks through agreement. Practically all of them signed waivers shoeing that if the ghot did not walk until the proverbial thirty days, or four weeks, had passed, there would be no protest raised by them.

Quick sales and small profits, the slogan of many successful Dusiness men. seems to find echo in the hearts of those who are working for the State. To receive a weekly salary nrnjild srirtefx- rhp mninrirv of rliM-Irs and stenographers even better than j-l up a payroll everv week would fie a stupendous task the very prospects various State departments with an annoyance which is keen-When the legislature is in session the clerks and members alike sign the vit roil twice a month.
