"The governor can make the best speech of any man in Kansas and should be chairman of the council," Dolley stated. The county chairman said the governor's name would be i presented Tuesday. In view of the j governor's position today, tho. there is a general feeling that Congressman Tincher will preside Tuesday and that the governor will be a member of the resolutions committee, If the matter is left to my own choice," said the governor, "I would much prefer to be on the resolution committee." Dolley visited the state house to recent story in the Kansas City (Mo.) Star to the effect that his election had been in opposition to the Mulvane or ganization. Dolley was elected with out opposition. "Anything the Star said was on the paper's own motion, and neither au thorized nor came from me," said Dolley.

At least one branch of Topeka busi ness will be benefited by' the increase in freight rates the wholesale dealers. With the difference between the inter state and intra-state rates letting ship ments in the state go at the old rates, wholesale grocers who have a large trade over the state are going to re ceive a decided increase in busine::-.- according to a belief expressed today by W. H. Smithmeyer. Jr.. of the Poehler Mercantile company. "It stands to reason that the retailer in the different towns of Kansas, who has probably been ordering his stock from Kansas City, Mo., houses, will change to some Kansas wholesaler, now that the increase in freight rates applies to all interstate shipments." said Smithmeyer. "We can send ship- ments to any town in Kansas at the I old freight rates, while the retailer j will have to pay the increase In rates, I should he order from out of the state. Altho I believe It is only a matter of jtime until the interstate commerce I commission places the increase to ap ply to intra-state shipments as well as lnter-state. still we will benefit by I the preesnt ruling until that time."

PERMIT SLUMP THBUOUT WEST Tenth EeserTe District Cities Keport Big Decrease. Big Drop In New Homes Over Last Year's Figures. Chicago, Aug. 30. High prices de manded for building material and a tar shortage are tying up construction in the west with the result several hundred million dollars in building capital is lying idle, according to re ports received here today. Chicago leads with $130,000,000 awaiting investment for building pur poses. Building permits thruout the west have slumped badly, reports here showed. The decline was particularly noticeable in Des Moines, Dallas, and in fifteen cities in the Kansas City federal reserve bank district; Detroit and Chicago. Building Permits Slump. St. Paul showed a few flew building contracts being let. However, it was estimated approximately $30,000,000 worth of capital is being employed in building at present with $5,000,000 waiting use. Detroit building permits to July 31 this year were 1,23 more than the first seven months of last year. The amount invested in building In Detroit this year totaled $54,538,990. Indications were, however, that build ing has fallen off this month. Springfield, 111., St. Louis and San Antonio. Tex., reported a building in crease. Decrease Is Reported. Fifteen of the leading cities In the Tenth federal reserve bank district record a 38.4 per eent decrease In building In July of this year com pared with the same month a year ago. Officials of the federal reserve bank at Kansas City attributed this to a "lack of transportation." Their report shows "no relief can come to present lack of homes until there are larger and better means of distributing lumber and materials of all kinds." Oklahoma City reported $2,000,000 of building capital tied up. Nine leading cities in Texas shewed 1,936 permits, valued at $5,247,661 issued in Julv last year as compared with 1,631, valued at $3,576,647 this year, a de crease of 36.3 per cent.

"Since taking Tanlac myaelf I se why so man people are endorsing the medicine so highly, and I want to add my name to the list also,' said A. L. Ponham, of 527 S. Topeka street, tVichita; Kan., a valued employe of the "ampbell Bakery Company. "I have suffered a preit deal during the past two years, and it was only when I took Tanlac that I got relief from my troubles. My appetite was so poor that I didn't relish my food, and st. times I had terrible headaches and dizzy spells. My kidneys also bother 61 me very much, and I had such awful pains in the small of my back that I could hardly stoop over. My Bleep was very restless, and I was in such a weak, run-down condition that I just had to force myself to work. "I kept on seeing &o much about Tanlac that I decided to give it a trial, and it has only taken five bottles of the medicine to rid me of my troubles and put me in good condition again. My kidneys no longer bother me, I'm never troubled with headaches or dizziness, and my back is entirely free from pain- I have an excellent appe tite, and have regained my strength and weight so that I don't hav a bit of trouble in doing my work. "My wife took Tanlac for a severe case of stomach trouble, and the medi cine restored her appetite and strength and built her up twelve pounds in weight. We are bothr enjoy ing better health now than we have !t years, and are certainly grateful to Tanlac fo what it has done for us." Tanlac is sold in Topeka by Tully McFarland Drug Co., 835 Kansas Ave., and 729 Kansas Ave. Adv.

The first symptoms are usually a loss of appetite, followed by a grad ually lessening of energy, the system becomes weaker day bx day. until you feel yourself on the verge of a break down. Children just at this season are peevish and irritable, and become puny and lifeless. This whole condition is but the re suit of impurities in the blood thatjatory. Atlanta, Ga Ad have been accumulating and make themselves felt more distinctly with the change of season. They show that nature needs assistance in giving the system a general housecleaning. Nearly everybody' jtist now needs a few bottles of S. S. S., the great vege table blood remedy, to cleanse out nil impurities. It is good for the children, for it gives them new strength and puts their system in condition so they can more easily re sist the many ailments so prevalent in summer. S. S.

Will Extend PrlTe to Candi dates for Congress. Washington. Aug. S9. Heads of the American Federation of Labor who have gone on record as favoring elec tion of Governor Cox, today planned a campaign, the object of wheh la to line up the labor vote for the Demo cratic candidate. The American Federation of Labor nonpartisan campaign committee has issued a report which purports to pre pare the records of 'the two leading candidates from the standpoint of laborv i "Governor Cox," said the report, "has shown himself possessed of a fuller understanding of the needs of the working people, a readier response to their needs, and their proposals, and a broader statesmanship in his public discussions of the problems of the industrial world." The comparison of records Issued today is only one of hundreds which labor has sent out. An attempt has been made to get into hands of work ing men the records of congressional candidates who have voted against measures favorable to labor. Labor leaders here claim their cam paign is already showing results. They say their opposition was responsible for small primary majorities received by Senator Cummins in Iowa and Un derwood in Alabama, and that they have defeated for renomination less prominent congressmen. Politicians here declare the cam paign is not showing results expected. They point to the defeat in the Ohio primaries of Representative Emerson by former Senator Burton as evidence.

"Since the 19S0 convention there has been raised by the national com mittee for its own use $618,013.54 up to August 26. During this period there has been raised by the states where we have a joint working agree ment, for their own use, 399.24J.78," said. Hays. "There was on hand August 26. 1920, in the national committee treas ury, $155,128.31 and we owe $460,000. This amount has been borrowed in order to anticipate expenditures. Of this w have loaned to the congres sional campaign committee, $188,500; senatorial campaign- committee, $50, 000, and state campaign committees, $38,000. "From June 14 to August 26, 1920. the national committee has -expended $343, 009.50. G. O. P. Owes $2S,74.69. "This leaves a deficit of $28,374.69 on Aueust 26, 1920. However, we have on hand uncollected pledge cards amounting to $291,565.33, all due be tween now and October 1. The treas urer has these pledge cards. These pledges come from every state and are from 2,304 persons, with an aver age contribution of $126.65 per per son. Of these. 2.304 pledges, none are. over $1,000 except two. which are for $5,000 each. The names of all contributors, to gether with the amounts they have given, from June 14 to August 26, 1920, are here for the inspectom of the committee. "During thia period from June 14 to August 26, there were 12,389 men and women contributors to both the national committee and to state com mittees thru the joint collectrrrg or ganization, an average of $82.11. Of these none have been over the thou sand dollar rule except eight, which eight have given a total of $13,500 an average of $1,687.50. The highest of these was $7,500." During the approximately nineteen months between December 1. 1918. and June 12. 1926, the national com mittee raised $1,365,897.49. Of this amount $1,162,324.39 was spent. AIR THEIR VIEWS lCqntInuetlrum i'uffs One.) Always a Man at Our Telephone opinion that the total amount which has been and finally will be collected by the joint raising organizations for the use of all state committees in their state campaigns will approximate $3,000,000. This is no part of the na tional campaign fund. Taking up the various angles of Cox's charges, Hays said: "Governor Cox has publicly charged: "1. That certain interests were 'banded together to buy Xlie presidency, and that millions lind been contributed to the Re publican party with sinister intent.' That statement is false. "2. That there is 'a deliberate plot that has been carried into every county in America in a conspiracv to buv the presi dency of the United States. That state ment is also false. "S. Tlist others are writing checks so that if their puppets or tools get into of fice and there are industrial controrer cies they can hare the bayonet to enforce their will. That statement also Is false. "4. That 'millions have been contrib uted to a corrupt source in furtherance or a Kepuoiican conspiracy to miy an niv Ierholi on the presidency: that the Re publican funds. n-t a campaign fund but a corrupting runa, win not ne less than $15.000.0110.' That statement also is false. "5. That a quota fixinjr assessments to be raised hv certain cities amounting to over SS.000.OO0, was adopted at a meeting at which Upham and I were present. That cttarge aiso it raise. Chanted Dummy Contributors. "fie has njade other statements charging a slush fund for corruption purposes, subsyibed in rtie names of dummy contributors, to be used to corrupt the electorate. These state ments are also false. "I now say that each, and all of these several charges are absolutely false in what they say and libelous in their purpose." Countering Cox's charges. Hays as serted Republican leaders have "been advised of the alleged misuse of gov ernmental instruments and functions by the Democratic organization for political purposes: sending out thou sands of tons of propaganda by the Democratic administration during the paDer shortage, while limiting the use of paper by the press, and that a large part of it was Democratic po litical propaganda, all paid for by taxpayers' money: and were informed, too, that the Democratic committee even resorted to drawing drafts on bankers in whose banks government funds were deposited, wiring sucn bankers that they had already drawn such drafts." Makes Counter Charges. Hays put into the records articles from leading Democratic newspapers telling of Democratic plans to raise $10,000,000 for the presidential cam paign. Republican fund raising aetivi tives, he said, were influenced by the reputed size of the Democratic fund. The Republican plan for.the raising of money thru small contributions. Hays said, grew out of two primary causes: "The desire to work a real reform, in the elimination of any possible im proper obligation. And, "Out of the experience In connection with raising funds for war purposes these popular drives have become familiar activities and It seemed pos sible at this time to undertake that kind of action by political organiza tions. We particularly hoped that this activity would increase the po litical interest. Made $1,000 the Limit. "It was the purpose, and it has since been the purpose, to endeavor to limit the contribution to a maximum of a thousand dollars for any one year for any individual, or thousand dollars before the nominating -convention and a thousand after. We have all tried -in that nlan." Hays produced the $3,000,600 budget he said had been worked out. It showed the division of the money for the following purposes: "Speak ers' bureau. $255,100: headquarters i expenses, Washington, New Tork, I Boston, Chicago, Denver an saii Francisco, $750,874. 20; rents all head quarters. $1,346,500; general expense, $6KO,920." j Hays next took up the alleged "quotas" which Cox charged had been levied for states and cities. Quotas Only Suggested. "At different periods different Jjuo itas have been suggested by the treas urer's office as tentative goals In dif J ferent states, and the state committees i themselves have fixed different quo i tas," he said. "These are changing constantly and always, of course, were made very much higher than the amount either necessary or antiei l pated. I "The fact Is. the quotas meant little. Furthermore, whatever may have been I suggested as quotas by overzealous solicitors In their enthusiasm In dif ferent localities, the fact remains that a certain amount was believed neces sary, and the budget above referred to was indicated therefore." Claims IVTW-lt In Treasury. There is actually a deficit in the Re publican treasury of $28,374.69, Hays said. After, the Chicago convention.

Democrats are equally uncertain as to industrial court law action. Many of their legislators voted for the law when it was enacted during the spe cial session.

The Santa Fe club of Topeka de feated the Mayetta Indians by a. score ff 7 to 6 at Western League park Sun day afternoon. Hale, .on the mound for the visitors, weakened in the eighth after Mayetta had a lead of three scores, and the locals came from be hind for four scores. Simpson started the twirling for the locals and was bumped hard for five innings, when he was relieved. by Seitz. who left three men stranded on the bags. A single and a dauble- in the sixth resulted in th last score for the Indians. Topeka got two scores in the eighth thru errors and passes- In the ninth doubles by D. Wells and Vogel and single by Her ring netted the winning run. A. R. Snyder, superintendent of the Mayetta Indian agency, said the defeat was partially attributable to the fact that their regular pitcher is crippled and that they had to use a substitute. But the men took it good naturedly, saying they were defeated fairly and had no kick coming. They were pleased with the treatment they re ceived in Topeka. The grandstand was packed. "All we ask." said Snyder, is that Topekans come to the Mayetta Indian fair to be held September 8-11. Wei will show them a good time. Score by innlDgs R. TT.

Frederic J. Uaskln, Director, Wasnlng !on. I. C. While the Chamber of Commerce has been making preparations for the inauguration of a house building cam paign in this city, a corporation with i similar end in view has been formed on the North side and actually is erect ing dwellings. Two have been built already and a site for a third has been purchased. This site will be occupied by a modern bunsalow. construction of which will begin at once. Organisers f the Chamber of Commerce project might learn something to their advan tage by -consulting the officers of the North Side association. It has been charged that the Brit ish are heavy contributors to Gov ernor's Cox's campaign funds. 'Well, t's time this country was getting back some of the money it has sent to Eng land. There seems to be no end to the procession of persons who ask awk ward questions. In an exchange Is found a letter from a subscriber, who wants to know why the government ;an conscript men to fight but can not conscript them to work. Senator Harding promises that if Elected he will serve notice on the world that the lives and property of American citizens must be respected. Evidently he had Mexico in mind. But Mexico has received many such notices and.up to this time has paid no ittention to them. It might be worth while for the senator to be more ex plicit. 'What would he do in case Mex ico refused to salute our flag when commanded to do so? Would he, take Vera Cruz and later abandon it, as did President Wilson; or would he take it and proceed to administer the affairs of the country? Senator Capper told a Wisconsin audience last Saturday that President Wilson's muddling of the sugar prob lem is costing the American people S3, 000. 000 a day. Sugar on that day was selling at 17 cents a pound. Fig uring on this basis, when sugar was sellln'g at SO cents a pound, it was costing the public more than $5,000, 000 a day. This is a lot of money. "Hope of world peace lies irr put ting teeth in The Hague tribunal, not in the League of Nations, which has undoubtedly passed beyond the possi bility of restoration," Senator Hard ing declared in his speech to a delega tion from Indiana last Saturday. "Teeth" could wean nothing less than power to enforcakits decrees. Where in, then, would it differ from a league of nations? The county commissioners have hit upon a way of bringing down the price of crude oil, if their plan shall be fol lowed generally. It consists in refus ing to buy at present prices. "Villa is the only war objective the United States ever failed to gain," says the St. Louis Times. The editor of the Times appears to have forgotten our attempt to make Huerta salute the Stars and Stripes. In both cases we withdrew from the field defeated. The work of the senate committee named to investigate campaign ex penses probably influenced the action of the Chicago convention. Further action of the same committee may become a determining factor in the November election. The time may eome when partisan enthusiasts will consider it the part of wisdom to keep their money in their pockets. The British labor party has issued a warning that it will refuse to co operate in a war against Russia in aid of Poland. If a majority of the Brit ish public be in accord with the labor party. England will not take part in the struggle. No country like Eng land and the United States, possessing a free government, can be plunged into war without the consent of Its people. This fact Is well known to the senators who opposed ratification of the Versailles treaty on the ground that Europe, under the terms of that document would have the power to drag; us into'another war at any time that it saw fit to do so. The gentle men who oppose our entrance into the League of Nations should base their opposition on reasonable grounds and not try to fool the people. The treaty j was not so nearly perfect as to be de I void of real and substantial reasons for refusing to endorse it. The most that its friends ever claimed for it was that it was the best thing in sight and a step in the direction of world peace. Evening Story The Wretched Deceiver. BT R. RAT FABER. "It seems so good to get away from the cares of social life," murmured Winnie Afton, as the cool breeze of Little Traverse bay caressed her brow. She was speaking to Leonard Brock well, who sat on the, hotel veranda beside her, striking imaginary flies on the railing with his dainty cane. Leonard was not dainty. He was more than six feet tall and the mus cles of ft perfect physique rippled un der his Palm Beach suit. He was a good-looking blond young man. Winnie was the dainty one, being fashionably slim and only five feet three in height. She was a pro nounced brunette, and a summer-white frock with a tilted pink hat made her look exquisite- "Yes, 'tis so," replied Leonard, stif ling a yaw-n and watching a lake steamer loaf into Petoskey harbor. "But do you know what appeals to me most is to get away from driving the everlasting motor cars. I've had so much of it I was glad to leave the cars in the garage and be able to stretch my legs without depending on gaso line." "Tou're right," Winnie agreed. "Driving motors bores me to dealth." Poor, pretending Winnie Her social obligations consisted of an occasional visit to a dancing assembly back in Chicago, when she was not too tired from her activities behind the silk counter. And all the motor she had ever driven was the relic that did serv ive on Aunt Martha's farm in central Ohio, where she spent last year's va cation. For four years Winnie had saved money, and it would have remained in the bank where it was put if it had not been for Phoebe Williams. All Phoebe had done was to go and get married. In some manner she had caught a rich man, and now when she strutted into the store she left an electric out in front. That had set Winnie thinking, and ,she had come to the conclusion the only way to enjoy life was to have all the money one wanted; and It seemed the only way to such an attainment was by means of a matrimonial knot. Her roommate had agreed, in so far as the latter part of Winnie's phil osophy was concerned. "It's done lots and lots of times," the chum declared, "and the rich men are hooked the easiest at summer re sortr All you need is enough dough to live in style for a few weeks at one of those places, and the first thing you know some son of the idle rich is proposing to you. It's easy, they say, but for me, I'll stick to Jim Wilson, even if he is Just a truck driver." That looked good not the truck driver, but the summer resort idea i so when vacation time came Winnie drew her seven hundred from the bank, invested a considerable portion of it in clothing and took a steamer for nothern Michigan. At Petoskey she took a room in a hotel close to the shore of the bay and began her campaign. Winnie had the looks and personal ity to win, and at the start the young men staying at the hotel paid homage to her. One of them, a frail anemic youth who never drew a breath un favored with cigarette smoke, pro posed the second night she was there; but somehow, for all of his evident wealth, Winnie could not bring her self to accept. She still retained girl hood ideas in which marriage minus love did not fit. In the first week Winnie had three proposals to her credit and five hun dred dollars on the other side of the ledger. She was progressing famously, but she was not satisfied. All the men who had placed themselves in her marriage market were wealthy, no doubt; but they were insipid parasites clinging for life to the riches their more ambitious fathers had accumu lated. Then along came Leonard Brock well, and she fell in love with him. To b sure the wealth that was evi dent in his dress and bearing attracted her as much as his handsome appear ance: but before she had known him twenty-four hours, the money question faded into insignificance before the man's wonderful personality. She feared she would lose him, so she felt obliged to continue the pre tense she had begun, wretch accounted for her reference now and then to her social sphere back home. On the fourth night the climax came. They walked along the beach, in the lisrht of a full moon which turned the blue of the water to bur nished silver. They sat in an arbor of trees and there he proposed, and she accepted. "The only girl I ever could begin to love," he breathed, and she told him similar things; and they were the truth. But Winnie had a conscience, and it began to intrude itself. She tossed all right in bed. unable to reconcile herself to the idea of having won a husband by deception. Here was this man, rich In his own right, asking her to be his wife under the belief she was his social and financial equal. She began to wish he was not rich, that he was a common plodder like herself. Early in the morning Winnie arose and dressed, her mind made up. She loved Leonard, but she never could accept him under the circumstances. she still had a week of vacation left, and she decided to spend it with Aunt Martha in Ohio. Before leaving the hotel she penned a note and left It with the clerk. "Dear Leonard," it said. "I am leav ing and will never see you again. I love you, but I have been a wretched deceiver, and cannot bear to look you in the face." Thirty-six hours later she leaped from the train and into Aunt Martha's arms. Aunt Martha escorted her to the relic that had once been an auto mobile and they drove to the farm. It was lonesome there, but Winnie made the best of it. She felt that she was atoning for her sin by shutting herself away from the world. She was I pensive and moody, but she roamed the fields and woods and tried to for get the handsome rich man who had asked her to marry him. One day Aunt Martha sent her on an errand. "I've got to churn today, and Uncle Robert's busy in the field; so we can't get away. I wonder if you'd as soon drive the flivver to town and get that tire we left to be vulcanised? That left front one is about ready to blow out." Winnie welcomed the opportunity, but she smiled bitterly as she realized her conversation in the north relative to being bored by driving. She found the garage without trou ble, stopped the fliwer in front and went into the office, making her wants known to the proprietor, who looked as tho he had just taken a bath in grease. "Oh, Mr. Hendricks's tire; sure. I think it's ready," he said, and stuck his head out the door to call: "Oh, Len, get Mr. Hendricks's tire, and bring it out and put it on for the young lady." Winnie walked back to the ear and stood waiting. Presently a tall, ath letic figure appeared, lugging the tire. His face was so black from mechan ical dirt that he would have passed for an Egyptian night. "Which wheel, miss?" he said, and then stopped and stared, allowing the tire to drop to the road. Winnie, puzzled by his behavior, studied bis countenance In an effort to penetrate the grease and make out what he looked like. Suddenly she recognized him, in spite of the grime. "Leonard!" she exclaimed. "Is it possible Why, I thought you did you get my note" "I did," he affirmed, "and I had Just written one like it, to leave for you. I got sick of that business up north and beat it home about thetlme you did. You see, I am another wretched de ceiver. All the money I possess is what I've saved from my wages here, and it isn't much, and the cars I re pair are the only ones I have anything to do with. I went resorting Just to catch a rich girl, and I well, I really fell in love; and then I wished and wished you were poor like myself, as I could "Well," said Winnie, Joyfully, "your wish came true, the same as mine did; so now there's nothing to prevent" (Copyright, 1920, by the McClure News paper Syndicate.) Dorothy Dix Talks BT DOROTHY DIX 131 iaa Writer. Worla's Highest Paid Worn. Are You One of These? 1, Now there be five varieties of the female bore, each more deadly than the other." The first is the Woman Who Has Seen Better Days. You meet her everywhere, but Ehe chiefly abounds in business offices and boarding houses. Within five minutes of your first meeting with her, sha has told you that she never expected to come to THIS, and after you have known her twenty-five years, she is still tell ing you the same thing. She is a phonograph with one rec ord, and it never occurs to her that no human being except herself cares a tinker's dam about her pedigree, or the riches her family used to have, or is interested in any "has been" stuff. All we care for is the now present. The Woman Who Has Seen Better Days never learns to do her work properly, because she thinks that would pu her on a level with the plebeian woman who is having her best days in earning a good salary. And if she keeps boarders, she feels that you should not object to the coffee being as weak as dishwater, because it is poured out of Great Grandmother's silver coffee pot- About which, and the splendor in which she was reared, she orates endlessly. The second among bores is the Wo man Who Tells You Her Troubles. She keeps her tears on tap, and turns them on at every opportunity. She comes to see you and weeps on your breast until you are sodden with salt water. She is like some uncanny Dira tnai llvdS by feasting on its own heart, and she forces you to partake of her hideous meal. She tells vou tales of "the horrible brutality with which her husband treats her, but she goes on living with him. She relates piteous stories of her children's ingratitude, but sne continues to cherish them. She be wails her proverty. She laments her bad luck. She bemoans her' ill health. She is on a nemetual orgy of melan choly, and she forces everyone who knows her to drink of her cup or sor row, and she is never so happy as when she has cast a wet blanket over any festive occasion, and made every body present long for a dose of cyanide of potassium. The third greatest among bores is the Woman Who Pretends To Be Young. She's a kittenish little thing of some fifty odd summers and heaven knows how many winters, but she sets the clock back ever;' year, lays a heavier hand on the rouge pot and the hair dye bottle. She giggles and simpers, and "shimmies, tho you can hear her poor old bones creaking as she dances, and she says "we girls." and teases heiself about men young enough to be her grandsons.

If home depended all on you. It never would get something new." "All right," says Vs. "Go buy the stuff! "But sav. am I still good enough?' (Copyright, 1920, by Edgar A. Guest) JUST A GIRL By JANE PHELPS TRFFECTIVE ECOXOMY. CHAPTER 79. That morning I spent in the cellar painting the chairs and tables I mean commencing them. I didn't get very much done it was new work, and I was particular, and slow. After luncheon Mrs. Fagin said: "If you want to get that money I'll go with you now." She piloted me to a queer little old man. I called him "a duck of a man" in my thoughts. He was really kind, and when Mrs. Fagin whispered some thing to him, he nodded and smiled, casting a keen look at me at the same time. He gave me 1200 for my things. He said I could have more if I needed it; but that the interest would eat me up If I had too much. Mrs. Fagin agreed with him. I was perfectly satisfied, it seemed to me that we could do wonders with $200. I had almost forgotten the time when I spent that for a dress. "Here's two months' rent." I gave Mrs. Fagin $50. "There's no hurry," she said. "Yes, there is! You have made it possible for us to try what we can do, and should be looked after first of all." "If you need it, all you have to do is to ask for it. I am willing to help you Just at first. I can't give you the rent. I ain't got money enough to do that, but I could wait a bit for it" "I shall be happier, and I am sure Mary will, if you are paid." "All right! I'll turn it over to the agent, then he can't get us out for two months even if the pancakes .are a failure." I laughed heartily. The idea that her famous pancakes could prove any thing but a success was amusing. We Mary. Mrs. Fagin and I had seriously discussed that word "pan cakes." Would griddlecakes be bet ter, or would the old-fashioned name be more taking. Mrs. Fagin de clared: "I have always called them pan cakes, and I wouldn't know them by any other name. They wouldn't taste the same either, of course if you girls think you would get more trade "Pancakes, it is!" I interrupted. "You bet it is!" Mary added, and so it was settled. Every morning I worked in the cel lar, painting. In the afternoon I hemmed the cotton squares for the tables we couldn't afford linen and made little shades for the candles. I had found two more sets of candela bra in a second-hand store on a back street, that went nicely with those Mrs. Fagin had given us. I had a lovely yellow silk slip which I had worn but once, and never expected to have use for again, which I cut up for the shades, using some narrow lace from another garment to trim them. They were lovely, and I was enormously proud of them. I had bought some striped cotton stuff with pale yellow roses scattered over it. It was very cheap, but when draped at the window and shirred on the door, and used in other ways about the place, it was very effective. "I shall just burst if it is any pret tier!" Mary declared, when on Sunday we took the stuff over to measure the window. The agent had done all we asked, and done it well. The wood work was painted a lovely gray, with two tiny soft yellow bands. The floor was a dai-k gray, while the side walls had been papered in the' same color, but much lighter in tone. "It is going to be pretty." I agreed. Then, "We must have some little frilly aprons of yellow, or with yellow bows on them. It always looks neater to wear aprons when waiting on table." "AH right! Make anything you want to, but make mine good and strong. After wearin them heavy things at the White Front Palace I probably shall tear the ones you make the first time I wear one." Mary was a bit clumsy. "No you won't! You'll be more careful. We must have bungalow aprons for the kitchen ones that we can slip on and off quickly." "Kitchen! Where is it?" Mary was standing at the door of the little closet, transformed now into a kitchen so tiny that one person, the table and stove filled it completely. "Less room to keep clean. We can take turns cooking." (Tomorrow The Two Sisters shop.) Questions Answers Q. Is the breeding f reindeer estab lished nn a commercial basis in the United States? O. I. T. A.

NEGRO SUSPECT WAS LYNCHED Armed Men Tricked Prison Of ficials and Seize Prisoner. Body Found Hanging to Tree Eight Miles Away. Oklahoma City. Aug. SO. The body of Claude Chandler, negro, who last night was taken from the jail here by a group of thirty masked men, was early today found hanging from a tree near Council Grove, about eight miles west of Oklahoma City, according to a telephone message from a farmer near the scene to the sheriffs office here. Chandler was arrested Saturday in a raid upon an alleged moonshine still near Arcadia, Okla., in which Stanton Weiss, a federal prohibition enforcement officer, and Homer Adrean, a deputy sheriff and Charles Chandler, father of Claude Chandler, were killed. The men who took the prisoner away obtained admission to the iail officials said, on the pretext that they were an oriicer and his prisoner. Once inside they produced revolvers, those in charge of the Jail said, and forcibly took possession of the negro. Officials Were Mystified. County Attorney O. A. Cargill aid Sheriff G. E. Johnson left their offices here .for the place where the body of the negro was reported to have been found suspended from a tree, immed iately after receipt of the informa tion. Efforts to trace the whereabouts of Chandler after he had been spirited away by a band of men who took him from the jail here last night, had been fruitless up until the message received this morning. Reports that h had been taken t Norman, Guthrie and other nearby cities for safe lodging in fear of mob violence were dispelled after communication with, the sheriff's unices ol mose places. Expect Negro Mobs. Six motor cars containing armed ne groes are reported to have left Ed mond, about fifteen miles north of here and three automobiles also con talning negroes are reported to have left Arcadia, about 23 miles north east of here for Oklahoma City, ac cording t messages received at the office of County Attorney Cargill here shortly before noon. It was said at the county attorney's office that Car gill was was arming his deputies in anticipation of any eventuality that might arise should the negroes be bound here for a clash with officers. A telephone messase from the city marshal at Arcadia to authorities here said that three cars containing twelve negroes had stopped there for a short timeand departed in the direction of Oklahoma City. The marshal said however, that he was unable to see any weapons and that they appeared to be in a friendly pursuit. Groups of negroes were gathered In the negro sections of Oklahoma City at noon. About two hundred men, all talking among themselves, were as cembled only three blocks from the business district while scores of women and children sat on the front porches or their homes. Charging that the sheriffs of Tulsa and Oklahoma counties where lynch ings occurred Saturday and Sunday nights respectively, were in collusion with the leaders of the mob or else were wholly unfit by lack of physical courage to discharge the duties of their offices, Governor J. B. A. Robertson sent a letter to the attorney general's department today directing that im mediate steps be taken to remove the two sheriffs from office. COMPLAIX AGAINST DOCTORS.

BY MTRA WILLIAMS JARRELL. Mrs. Jack Campbell will entertain the Tuesday Bridge club tomorrow afternoon at her home in Huntoon street. Mrs. Ivan Dibble and Mrs. Wendell Lyman will substitute for ab sent members. The following Topeka women were entertained by Mrs. John Buttershill of Kansas City one day last week: Mrs. John Capper. Mrs. Tom Powell, Mrs. Ed Hunter, Mrs. George Gregg, Mrs. Robert Hunter, Mrs. William Finch, Mrs. Jack Mercer and Mrs. Carl Lagmuson. The wedding of Miss Lulu Jordan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. F. H. Jor dan, 1406 West Sixth street, and Mr. Arthur Baker Whitmer of Phoenix, Ariz., occurred Sunday afternoon at the home of the bride's parents, the Rev. Charles F. Mathews of the First Baptist church officiating. The house was simply decorated in yellow and white, and the bride wore a becoming gown of white georgette. Mrs. Whitmer has lived all of her life in Topeka, and Mr. Whitmer was born and reared here, being the son of Mrs. Emily Whitmer of 1309 West Sixth streets He travels for the Wyatt Hardware company of St. Joseph, Mo., with headquarters in Phoenix, where he and Mrs. Whitmer will make their home. They will leave Topeka tonight for Phoenix. Besides the members of the two families, the only guests were Miss Dolly Shissner and Mr. James Dasse, both of Kansas Citv. ''Stylish stout" hats for women have been introduced by a New York de partment store and are attracting con siderable attention, says the Dry Goods Economist. Much attention has been paid, of late years, to the clothing needs of the large woman, but until now the fact that she also needs a hat appropriate to the heavier proportions of her figure has not been recognized. Hats must become the figure as well as the face, if they are not to appear ridiculous. The use of colors, the trimming effects and the shape will all be carefully considered in the new hats, since inappropriate millinery models call unfavorable attention to the figure just as poorly selected clothes do. The Economist does well to call our attention to this. Maybe now we fat women will quit wearing chin-chin hats, and other styles equally juvenile, and suited to slimness and youth. Two women got in the elevator in one of the big stores a few days ago. and a little girl of 8 or 9 years of age came running after, breathless with excitement over some wonderful dolls she had been looking at. One of the women, presumably the mother, shook the child for having delayed them. Undismayed perhaps because she was accustomed to shakinps the child be gan eagerly describing the dolls and expressed the wish to go down to the basement to look at the dolls dwon there. Her mother very crossly told her she could do no such thing. Then the other woman probably an aunt, for the two must have been sisters, took a hand. "For shame," she said, "a great big girl like you, wanting to look at dolls!" The listener sighed. Tt hadn't been over a week since she had sat beside an old trunk in an attic when .she should have been packing household goods preparatory to moving, and held an old, dearly loved doll in her lap. The years had been so few since the little girl of the family had crooned her love songs to this same batterfed doll. And now the little girl is a big girl, in college. Could this young woman have known had she the perception to look down Into the very heart of her child she would not have discour aged that mother instinct which be longs to the normal child, and which finds expression in playing with dolls. And could she realize what a little fully short time a little girl is a little girl, and how soon she becomes so big that she is ashamed to play with dolls except in private, she would cling to each one of those years; instead of be ing impatient with her child for her normal taste, she would enter into her play; she would keep, at any cost to time and temper, that beautiful con fidence which makes her child want to tell her all about the wonderful dolls she has seen. This particular mother is in grave danger of losing that confidence. Then when the time comes wiien she should have her I daughter's confidence about bigger J things, she will find- herself shut out. f If she reads this, I hope she will stop 1 and ponder. The following lines from the pen of Nora Archibald Smith it might be well to take to heart, in this day of paper shortage; Save Iaper. There's a world-wide shortage of paper, iio tbe wist-acres claim today, A shortage that's uoteu in every land, From Africa's shore to Cathay. Our newspapers need is fur 10 per cent uioro Thau the whole of our land can produce; The shortage tnouuts up to the thousands of t'JUS, The moral each man may deduce. If a penuy-piece saved is a penuy-plece eaructl And many there be that believe tt. Then saving iu paper must follow the rule, i The shortage, 'twill help to relieve It. j Here's some! ning that e cry une's bound 1 to assist, Whatever his age or his station, j For paper today can be properly called Essential to civilization. Then smooth out brown paper and fold it with care. Your paper bags use them and use them; I Each wrapper and carton and pasteboard I and box I Each last II" you do not abuse them. Thus, saving iu paper, you're saving in coui, In suipliur, in chlorine, in labor, In wood and in soda, in cars ami in freight, And thus you are serviug your neighbor. Just think of a world without paper, my j dears. Of its uses In every employment, The news that it carries, the help that It brings. its value in every enjoyment. A world without paper, a world without books Who wants such a world or could bear it? Hut remember, my dears, iu the stress of today. That who would have paper, must spare it I The announcement of the engage ment of Miss Ruth Kingman to Mr. George Avery Washburn has been made.

Swendsou of Topeka Receives Note Concerning Brother in War. King George of England has sent ts S. A. Swendson, chief clerk of tbe local Santa Fe hospital, a tribute to the memory of his brother, Lieut. Harry. Swendson, who died while fightinK with the British army. The tribute is in the form of an engraved letter, signed by the king, which reads as fol lows: Buckingham Palace. I loin with my grateful people in sending you this memorial of a brav, life given for otbers In tbe Great War. Lieutenant Swendson was a Kan san, having, lived at Hawthorne. Kan.. for a number of years. From Kan sas he traveled to Alaska and then went to Australia, where he engaged in the mercantile business. He en listed in the Australian Imperial Force, and was killed in action at Polygon wood on Broadside Ridge, France, by a Hun sharpshooter. His parents are dead, so the tribute from the king was sent to his brother, his nearest living relative. An engraved tribute from the Australian govefn ment accompanies the king's letter. It reads: He whom this scroll commemorates was numbered among those who. at the pall of King and country, left all that was dear to them, endured bardneaa. faced danger, and finally passed out of the sight of men by tbe path of duty and self sacrifice, giving up their own lives that otbers might llva in.

s THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING, AUGUST SO, 1920 J BOYS STEAL CARS Topeka Youths Confess to Theft of Automobiles. Took Six Motors Out for Joy Eides, They Admit. HAD OIL COUPON BOOKS Bought Gas IVith Tickets Be longing to Filling Station. Iamaged Property lVortb $12,000 in Last Two Months. Ed Crowd er, 18, of 407 Chandler street, and Chester Copeland, 19, Oak land, today confessed to the theft of six motor cars in Topeka in the last two months. The boys said they stole the cars for joy riding purposes. Shortly after their confession th-e boys were arraigned in the court of Topeka, pleaded guilty to breaking the joy riding statute and were sentenced to sixty days in the county jail by Ed Rooney, acting judge of the court of Topeka. Their arrest followed the theft Sun day of a Paige motor car at the ball park belonging to Alva Cahill of Va lencia. They ran the car to Twenty first and Adams stroets, where they abandoned it. People saw the boys alight from the car and gave the police a description. The boys admitted today that they had stolen an Oldsmobile from Judge Had M. L.ee from in front of the Nov elty two weeks aei; a Iiuick from in front of the Novelty which they aban doned at Fourth and Adams streets; a Euick from in front of the Novelty, abandoned at Tenth and Chandler streets; a Scripps-Booth machine from in front of the Moose lodge and an other Buick from in front o the Grand theater. The con fessions were ob tained by George G. Hannan, chief of police, and George Frost, chief of de tectives. The night Judge Lee's car was stolen Chief George G. Hannan and another officer saw two boys get into i car on Kansas avenue. When they saw the officers they jumped out. "Let's take a look at those boys," There is no substitute for imported Pompeian Olive Oil L mm JfMaM j W Will If itK! IM Wll W hWffw m I I ill! nl OAT7V7S ?!SY2 FLU 10 01 j said Hannan. "I believe they were planning to take that car out for joy ride." An hour after the boys were inter viewed Judge Lee's car was stolen. The chief said today that the descrip tion of the two boys given by neigh bors fitted with the description of the boys he saw on Kansas avenue. So this morning officers went to the i Santa Fe shops where the two boys work and took them to headquarters. The police found an oil coupon book in Crowder's pockets, which they is a book stolen from a Long: Oil com pany station several weeks ago. Crow- ider said he purchased the coupon book from a boy in a pool hall a few days before he took Judge Lee's car. The night of the theft of that car the po lice in their search stopped at a Long Oil company station on the Bast side and not ten minutes before their ar rival Crowder and his pal had stopped and purchased gasoline. Coupons from the stolen book were used in payment. Agents at all sta tions in the city were given the cou pon numbers in the stolen books and the East side agent recognized the stolen coupon. He took the number of the car and was 'phoning the police when officers arrived in their search for the persons who stole Judge Lee's car. An all night search for the ear was futile and it was found abandoned near Oakland the next morning. EW POSTAL MAXAGEH HERE. Former Messenger Boy Becomes Man ager After Resignation V. II. Morris.

TO KICK THEM OUT Too Many Political Reyenue Collectors in Kansas. Six Keal Workers Could Do Work of 175 at Wichita. T1KGHER OPENS CAMPAIGN Declares the Pepperill Tactics 'eed an Investigation. Two Found in Kingman After Democratic Funds. Congressman J. N. Tincher wants to kick some 150 or 175 travelling reve nue collectors out of office and let a half dozen American Legion boys do the work. The Seventh district con gressman today indicated that reports which had come to him shows the Democrats are maintaining a very healthy and vigorous political ma chine in this state thru the revenue department at Wichita, He is plan ning to ask for some inside informa tion when he returns to Washington this fall. When W. H. L. Pepperill. internal revenue- collector, moved his office from Leavenworth to Wichita, there were Just four travelling collectors. Most of these men probably all of them were old soldiers. It seems, tho, they have gradually disappeared. At the same time the army of gov ernment revenue collectors has stead ily grown. It is reported that the number of travelling inspectors now totals IT 2. Collect Campaign Fund. "Reports which have com to me are to the effect that many more than 100 spectora are now out on the road working diligently under the revenue collector's instruction," said Congress man Tincher. "I crossed the path of a couple of them in Kingman the other day. They had come down, so a friend told me, to gather some con tributions for the Democrat campaign fund. It is a very important service, but shouldn't be paid for with public money. "When the Democrats took over, the revenue collector's office, four old sol diers were doing the road work. In those days, the liquor licenses were an item. Now that is removed. But my information is to the effect that the number f necessary employes, as the collector sees his respoi sibility, is far more than 100.

Believing that the official casualty report at Wash ington by the adjutant general can be supplemented to a great extent by friends, next of kin and organizations with which the deceased were identi fied, the Army and Navy Club of America is endeavoring thru corre spondence to compile a complete au thentic list of the officers who died in the world war. The names, with other data bearing on the civil and military life of the men who made the supreme sacrifice, will be preserved in a $3, 000, 000 me morial hall and officers' clubhouse to be erected in New York City. Plans for the memorial, which will be in the nature of a great patriotic center, were announced a few days ago by Rear Admiral Bradley A. Fiske, U. S. N.t retired, president of the club. In the list of casualties issued at Washington, Kansas is credited with sixty-nine officers who lost their lives. Of this number thirty-three were killed in action, eighteen died of wound, eleven of disease, five of ac cident and the remainder of undeter mined causes. Among those who will be memorial ized in the beautiful building to be erected in New York are the following from Topeka: Lieut. Phil Billard, 1215 North Quincy street: Lieut. Vic tor K. D. Blakely, 14S4 Polk street: Paul Nowers, 224 Woodlawn avenue. The co-operation of the families of the decelased and of organizations in cluding clubs, lodges. fraternities, business concerns and churches Is re quested in order to make the file as accurate as possible. Questionnaires have been mailed to the next of kin of all officers whose names are now on the club file, and similar action will be taken immediately on receipt of additions to the list. In this way, it is hoped to secure sufficient ma terial to compile a complete record of the service of each officer. Admiral Fiske earnestly desires that all persons who lost sons, brothers or relatives who were officers in the war communicate with him at 261 Madi son avenue. New York. ew York Money Market.

Confident that as a result of numerous confer ences in New York he has combined all the Democratic grroups into one big fighting machine, Governor James M. Cox today waa traveling back to Co lumbia, O., to make preparations for his extensive stump battle in the far west. The candidate declared today that while in New York he was assured of unqualified support by the leaders of all the so-called party factions such as the Wilson administration, Tammany, the McAdoo backers and the Palmer forces, and that all are "on their toes for the big fight." W. G. McAdoo promised the gov ernor he would be one of the most ac tive campaigners. The governor today was watching closely developments of the senate campaign expenditures in Chicago and has sent Senator Reed, committee member, a copy of his Pittsburgh speech whioh will be formally present ed to the senatorial body. New data of the new League of Na tions was given to the governor in his conferences and he has indicated he will reply to Senator Harding's pro posal to "abandon the league and put teeth in The Hague tribunal" when he speaks at the Ohio state fair tomorrow. CATHOLIC SCOUTJN TOPEKA Bors In Topeka To Be Organized by Edward Roach Tonight. The things he saw in France with the Fourth army corps are respon sible for the presence in Topeka today of Edward J. Roach, field secretary of the boy scout bureau of the na tional Catholic war council, and spe cial national field scout commissioner of the Boy Scouts of America. Four new boy scout troops, with about 200 members,-are to be organ ised in Topeka among the Catholic parishes. A meeting of priests and representative laymen will be held to night at the Knights of Columbus club rooms. Roach will deliver his address on "Scouitng Under Catholic Leader ship." The troops will be organized immediately after school opens. Roach spent eighteen months ovar seas as a Knights of Coumbus director with the Rainbow division. The weakness and the examples of phys ical unpreparedness he saw there led him to take up the work of organiz ing boy scout troops when he returned to the United States last October, he said. He has already organized fifty troops in St. Louis. At present he is organizing twenty-five troops in Kan sas City, Mo.; fifteen In Kansas City, Kan.; thirteen in Des Moines, and proportionately the same in other cities. So far 2.000 troops, including more man o.ouo Boys, have been or ganized in Catholic parishes over the country. Branch ot Main Body. The Catholic boy scouts are in no way separate from the Boy Scouts of America. Roach is merely devoting his time to getting the boys of his own faith interested in tho great scout movement. "I find Just one, fault," he said to day. "The boya do not have the en couragement they should have at Home oecause parents do not seem to understand the scout program. It is undoubtedly the greatest movement of the ages so far as our boys are con cerned. As lone as a boy loves scout ing he will not net into trouhie h will not go wrong. He lives scouting ne is at tne meetings of his troop or in the field, but when he gets home he sometimes almost forgets it. That's why parents should study the scout program. It is endorsed by the American Federation of Labor, and by Pope Benedict and all the cardinals and arch-bishops and bishops of the Catholic parishes of America." Roach pointed out- that the scout program is in no way militaristic, but is designed to train the boys in higher morals, better living and to Increase their physical welfare. JUSTICE WITH HER, LAW IS NOT. So Mrs. Jane Morrison Could Not Collect from Grandson. "Justice is with you. The law Is against you. I am sorry that as an officer of the law I can't render a judgment in your favor." This today from Ed Rooney, acting Judge of the court of Topeka, to Mrs. Jane Morrison, 70, who had filed suit for $7.50 against her grandson, Charles Smith. The old lady was cry ing as Acting Judge Rooney decided the case in favor of the grandson. Neither grandmother or grandson had an attorney. Both stated their side of the case. "When a baby was born to Mrs. Morrison's daughter, the mother went out and took care of her. chopped wood and stayed there until mother and the baby died." Acting Judge Rooney said. 'The son-in-law refused to pay. The grandson, Charles Smith, was able to pay and finally after meeting rebuff after rebuff in en deavoring to get some money from the grandson, the old lady 'went to court. "Everything, excepting the law, told me to render Judgment for the old lady, but the work was done more than two years ago and the statue of limitations had passed. There could be no recompense under the law. Mrs. Morrison lives on lower Madi son street. New Orleans Cotton Market. New Orleans. Ane 30. COTTON Spot, quiet; middling. 30.30. Jfw York Etoek Market.

Topeka's pre-vocational school, the only one of its kind in Kansas, will open September 6, according to an nouncement today by E- J. Buckles, di rector of educational research and manual arts who is in charge of the school. Applications from pupils de siring to attend should be made promptly,. Buckles said. Pupils of the fifth sixth, seventh and eighth grades who have special ability along industrial lines, are eli gible to attend the school. One hun dred boys and one hundred girls who show a tendency to excel in work of vocational type will be admitted to the school. Applications may come from pupils of all the grade schools of the city. The pre-vocational school will be conducted in the Garfield school building, 13th and Quincy streets, formerly used as a grade school, and which has served as an emergency hospital. It has been thoroughly- Cleaned ana repaired and Is In excel lent condition for its new usage. It is modern in every way, well lighted and ventilated. Henry R. Thompson of Cottonwood Falls, Kansas, well known school ex pert, formerly head of the educational research department of Topeka scnoois. wm oe principal of the new school. For the past year he has been traveling for an eastern publishing house. He will be assisted by a corps of six teachers, three of whom will teach academic subjects and three will be industrial instructors. The ap pointment of Rex. Aton of Lincoln, Neb., to have charge of the wood-work department, is announced. The other five appoirtments are under consider ation. The new school to be added to the city's public school system repre sents an educational idea that is new in this section of the country. Its nature is explained by Director Buck les. "The pre-vooational school is Just what its name implies," he said. "It is not a vocational school. It does not train the pupil in any certain vocation or industry but helps him to make a choice of a vocatio;. before leaving school. It is in no sense a school for the mentally deficient, but a special provision for those more adapted to industrial work, those mechanically minded and those who show except ional skill in working with the hands. "The fundamentals of academic education will not be neglected in any way." Buckles emphasized. "But the program of the school will be ar ranged so that half the time will be spent on industrial subjects and the other half on the necessary academic training."
