"I am indeed shocked to learn that smoking among women is not uncom mon In Topeka," Miss Gaston said. ''I understand that it is getting to be a habit. From the reports reaching me I have reason to believe that it is get ting too much strength among To peka women for the good of the city. Our campaign is needed for womeri and girls. I am thinking." A Topeka bank is to come under the anti-cigaret gun. Miss Gaston con fided. "I understand from a woman patron of a Topeka bank that the bank sup plies women with cigarets and smoking appjilatus," Mis3 Gaston said, "and tnaE, the bank feels obliged to do' it to keep the good will of its women patrons." All Classes Do It. No certain class of women are im plicated alone in the guilt of smoking. Miss Gaston said. The habit is taking root among all classes and ages of women andT girl3 in the city, she de clared, even stating that she had,heard that high school and college girls as well as society women were addicted to the habit. Miss Gaston appeared before the meeting of the Topeka Ministerial Al liance this morning and was. promised the co-operation of all churches in the city. Each church, according to the plan of the ministers, is to have a committee of ten members to join and work with the Anti-cigaret league, which Is to be formed Friday night, Miiss Gaston said. She expressed her self as being greatly pleased over her progress in Topeka, which "is better than she had dreamed," she said.

RESCUED FROM DROWNING Robert Carr Plunged Into Central Park to Save Three Boys. Wet, cold and shivering after a plunge into the lake at Central park, Robert Carr. 17 years old, 1240 Lane street, didn't bother to get the names and addresses of three young boys whom he had saved from drowning under the ice of the lake Sunday after noon. Carr was passing the park on his bicycle, when he heard calls for help, and ran to the edge of the lake. Three hnvs. 8 or 10 vears old. had been I "daring" each other in exploring the thin ice which covered the water at a point where the the lake was some five feet deep. When Carr arrived at the scene, the ice had broken, leaving one of the boys cling to it, and the others already un derneath the surface. Carr rushed in, being ablt, to wade at the depth which would have proved fatal to the boys, and hauled them out. They scampered for their homes, and he followed suit without troubling to find out who they were. FIX THINGS FOR WILL HAYS G. O. P. Leaders "Resting" at French Lick Dope Up Chairmanship.

A minister, two Sunday school workers, a Y. M. C. A. secretary and a reporter were in Miss Gaston's company when she passed around jthe pill box. Not only did Miss Gaston have cigarets, but she had a very special kind made for feminine use when she produced from her handbag. They were gold-tipped, per fumed and monogrammed. or at least there was a place for a monogram, tho Miss Gaston's initials were not found thereon, "If you: don't like that kind I have some Camels here," Miss Gaston told the small eircle, a group lingering after the morning, session of the Shaw nee County Sunday School association. True to her word she produced a part of a package of the above, named brand. "Take one for a souvenir," Miss Gaston said, offering a woman Sunday school worker the box containing the gold-tipped variety. "OO-oo! My; I've never touched one of the things, but I believe I will," the Sunday school worker said, suiting action to the word, tho shrinkingly. ...To save Miss Gaston the report that she has turned backward in her move ment against cigarets, it is explained, reluctantly, that tho "coffin nails" are still the object of her crusade, and that the gold-tipped coffin fasteners were relics of a fight she had con ducted in the Nebraska legislature for an anti-cigaret law. "I found that these cigarets had been passed around by a cigaret man ufacturing firm fighting the anti cigaret legislation. The "Camels," she promptly explained explained, were given her by a soldier who had pledged himself to stop smoking for his mother's sake.

Dis- Xorthern Operators Invade Kansas Trade Territory. FORCED TO REDUCE OUTPUT Only Ten Per Cent of Produc tion Used in This State. Local Firms Give Many Rea sons for Slump. '.f J Reduced outputs by Topeka mills did not disturb the flour supply for Kansas, the industrial court waa told today. Northern mills were declared to be invading trade territories of Kan sas mills in the east with prices below those of southwestern millers. Of the normal output by mills of this stats, only 10 per cent of the production waa consumed within the state. Compelled to Reduce Output. Local millers who today appeared before the industrial court under a citation for suspending production, de clared they were compelled to reduce output because of a slump ln demand for Kansas made flour. Officials of Topeka mills told the court that the mills under existing conditions might be able to operate two-thirds capacity., many reasons were assigned lor ex isting conditions. It was denied that there was a move to reduce flour pro duction under an agreement. Market ing conditions were declared largely responsible. Buy Grain Clieaper. Canadian milled flour is now being sold in this country in competition with domestic protluct, witnesses said. They also told the court that Canadian wheat is permitted to enter this coun- try duty free. This permits Minne apolis and other northern mills to buy grain much cheaper than Kansas mil lers can buy southwestern wheat. In consequence product of the Kansas mills is undersold 1 to (1.50 a barrel. Under the Lever act President W il son might declare a protective duty on Canadian wheat. Such course has not been taken, the court was advised. M ould Raise Price of Flour. "A protective tariff on wheat would result ln higher flour?" asked Fred S. Jackson, attorney for the court. "Yes. Also higher wheat," replied 3. P. Cramer, president of the Tooeka. Flour Mills company. "Kansas wheat growers have lost heavily because of the situation." Cramer said general financial condi tions entered somewhat Into the flour situation. He also ascribed much trouble to the export situation and to Canadian exchange. Fpr time, Cramer declared, Jhrnu. was a differential of 2fr""ta cent between mill products and flour. T-bua export business was lost to American miller. Big Price Slump Here. Whether the consumer Is receiving benefits of the market situation or not,, flour prices bave taken a big slump, Topeka millers testified. They aald that- price of Topeka made flour had dropped $3 to 14 a barrel since Sep tember 1. Wheat is bought by th mills as flour is marketed, Cramer tes tified. Cramer's mill haa enough wheat bought to maintain plant ca pacity sixty days. Only a small per cent of the Kansas made flour is sold for use in this state. Much flour from northern mills la now being sold in this state, it was de clared. This is due to unfavorable conditions facing Kansas millers. Kansas mills produce Is, 000, 000 to 20,000,000 barrels of flour a year the court was told. Last year the mills ln this state ground 75,000,000 bush els of wheat. Of the total output. Kansas con sumed 1.750,000 barrels or less than ten per cent of the state mill produc tion. Run two-Thirds Capacity. "What are your future Intentions?" aske Jackson. "We intend to run as much as pos sible." said Cramer. "Can you estimately approxi mately?" "I have no idea "Will it be two-thirds capacity un der present conditions?" "I hope so. I believe we can do that." Exports have kept up the price of wheat, millers said, while wheat ana not manufactured flour has gone over seas. Eighty per cent of the export is ln foreign boats. A protective tar riff would remove discrimination against domestic wheat growers and millers, it was asserted, and rellevs much of the. present trouble. It would, however, result In high prices for flour and wheat. Earn Good Profit Armln Fasler, representing ths Inter-Ocean Mills, said his company: had earned a good profit during th fiscal year ending July 1. Since that time, tho, the mill has been loains; money. "During the twelve months ending November 1," said Fassier, "our quo tations for flour changed 177 times. That Is an average of ones every on and seven-tenths days." Cramer denied that his mill had discharged men because they were In the recent mill strike in Topeka or had released skilled workers. He said his mill is now using 34 men as against 44 a few weeks ago. "AH of the men released were given a week's notice," he said. "None of them were skilled millers. They wers in the common labor class." The hearing- by the. Industrial court J Is the first under the provisions of the situ; iaw prunioiung curtailment or production in essential industries and may go to the supreme court for final interpretation of the provision of ths Industrial court law.

Frank O. Drenning of Topeka, started most of the hostilities when he insisted on praising the Pennsylvania state constabulary and similar organ izations. Might there union workers in the crowd took exception. For a time it looked as tho the crowd didn't coma to throw bricks at the pill at all. It looked more like the opening inning of a meeting of the Good Government club in the good old days when there was free and unrestrained discussion as just what nicotine really meant in the life of a young and innocent alley eat. If Drenning had stayed right with the subject under discussion and not taken too many side slants, the meet ing was in a frame of mind to pass ringing resolutions aitainst cigaret smoking and neighborly sins. Even Drennlng's talk. tho. did not pertuib Miss Gaston. She told of evils of the cigaret since the day it found its way to the red light district and how Rat an had let It into places of respectability until it became a menace.

London, Nov. 15. Quick negotia tion of a trade agreement with Bol shevik Russia was nrged today. The' Chronicle declared that fight ing the Bolsheviki merely strength ened them. It hoped the French gov ernment would cease its support of anti-Bolshevik leaders in Russia and adopt the British view of trade with tna Holsncviai. Wrltina- in the Observer. J. L. Gar-! vin said: "This ia the utter end of France a recognition of General Wrangel. This hapless leader has followed in the footsteps of Kolchak and Denekln and others. Our business now is to recog nize an executive Russian government, whatever it may be. Foreign force cannot smash the Bolshevist system. Trade ia far likelier to transform It into a modern system." Denies British Blockade. As Great Britain has never recog nized the Wrangel government in Bouth Russia and now is proceeding with negotiations aiming at the opening-of trade relations with soviet Rus sia, the British navy still continues to observe strict neutrality In the Black sea. it waa stated today. Reports from Constantinople that the British navy would assist in the blockade of Black seaports were denied by the admiralty. Italians Withdrew Troops, Com plylng With Treaty. Rome, vNov. 15.

Cannot Admit Minors Unless! Accompanied by Parents. New York. Nov. 15. A crusade for stricter enforcement of the city ordi- j nance forbidding motion picture pro prietors to sell tickets to minors un less accompanied by parents or guard ians was started by the police today, as a result of the panic on the lower East side last night, when six chil dren were trampled to death in a mad rush following a false fire alarm. The police department sent warn ings to all movie houses that the ordi nance would be strictly enforced and violations would be vigorously prose cuted. BernarJ Weinberg and Max Schwartz, proprietors of the Catherine theater, and Joseph Polivani, Janitor, were arrested after the tragedy last night charged with manslaughter. Earlv today the charge was changed to criminal negligence, and they were held without bail for arraignment this forenoon. Most of the twelve other youngsters seriously injured when older children men and women bowled them over in their scramble toward the exits, were said to be in a critical condition early today. The panic occurred when some of the patrons, noticing the curl- ,n shadows cast on the screen and notching the odor of smoke yelled "fire," an 1 rushed simultaneously lor the outside. The smoke was caused by the Janitor in starting a fire in the fur nace. In the confusion that followed, scores of little tots were hurled to the floor, furnishing a wailing, writhing carpet over which the others escaped. Rescuers said the children were so in tertwined that four or five clung to gether when an attempt was made to pull one out- EXOASflNT WITH GAS Coni!nvrs Largely Responsible for Shortage, Says Judge Kecd. Shortage of natural gas which faces Kansans again this year is largely the result of extravagant habits formed bv consumers years airo when the sup ply was abundant, according to Judge Clyde M. Heed of the Kansas court of Industrial relations. The problems of the gas business In the period immediately following its discovery was to find a market for the tremendous quantities produced bv the fields in their flush period," s:ii'l Judge Ueed. "But there l.-is been a change. Now the problem is one of flut'.lng enough gas to supply the mar-kri.-t already connected with the pipe lires and to curtail waste which char acterized the early day natural gas and which resulted largely from its com- ii ivernor Allen, i:. a proclamation ur; ir.g conservatic of gas and asking co? jm'-i and city officials to co-op-erat? with the conservation committee appointed by the Kanras c- in-du-frial relations, raid: "The diminution in the supply of natural gas in the producing fields has lieci me so masked as to render it im perative that an e' made to co -serve it. in order to prolong the term It v ill be availabla for domestic pur-po:--.. t is well known that there Is a lack of efficiency in combustion thru the general use of appliances not ade quate to the purposes as well as a loas in the transports on of the prod ict and In Its distribution.

Ilaskin, Director, Washing ton. I J The proposal that the United States shall cancel the debts which Euro f pean nations owe Irer tias been queered at the very outset by the an nouncement that Colonel Bryan Is for I it. Aside from this, however, there Is another good reason why the motion should not prevail, which is that free dom from this debt would hasten the coming of the next big war. Nations cannot fight without money. 1 1 11 It would have been more in axeord wlth existing conditions If President J Wilson had omitted the word "peace" J from his Thanksgiving proclamation. In view of the fact that we are still at j war with Germany and our troops re main in her territory. It is announced that the 10-cent loaf of Wend has been increased in sine, bat the public will not be satls fled tlfntll the piece of roataurant pie grows larger or the price smaller. Dispatches from Madrid Bay that the postal pet-vice in Spain is in seri ous comltion. Is it possible that there is another Burleson? The Bolshevilti may not, know how to run a government successfully, but when It comes to fighting well. Just ailt General Wrangel or any other revr Evolutionary leader. Still, they could J not manage the Poles. Perhaps President Wison'a tender of the use of the Mayflower to Senator Harding was intended as a substitute for the telegram of congratulation which he did not send following the senator's election. One of the weaknesses in the antl jjclgaret law which may account in some measure for the laxity in Its en forcement Is the realization on the Jpart of the well informed that tobacco consumed in the form of the little ji cylinders is no more damaging to jhealth or morals than is tobacco con sumed in any other form. A huge slump in cotton manufactur ing in this country is reported front Washington. When congress meets probably some member will seek to remedy the condition by means of the tariff. AX UNEQUAL- CONTEST. The efforts of the consuming public ta bring down prices and the endeav ors of those who have things to sell to maintain prices are taking on the form fit an endurance contest with the chances of victory all on the side of the general public The producers of the country as a whole were per Ynltted to amass wealth by a theoreti cal profit gained by the advance in prices due to the war. These same men must now expect to suffer a cor responding loss. The readjustment period is only a period of taking losses, the fortunate circumstance being that it Is not at all probable that prices will ever reach the pre-war level and therefore the appreciation in value of the world's supply of goods from 100 pot- cent to 200 per cent will still leave a profit in the hands of property owner when those same prices re treat from ZOO per cent to 125 or-ISO per cent, the-Ievel which is likely to bo reached in the final readjustment of the nation's business. The prices of world products at the close of the war and for a consider able time thereafter remained at a level the highest In the history of modern days. These prices have in. creased more than 100 per cent since 1914. In other words, the enormous stock of materials and supplies were accounted to be worth double as much as similar stock would have been ac counted in 1914. It is admitted and expected thai prices must fall to a much lower level. Ths holder of goods at the time of this price decline must necessarily .stand a loss. Reductions are being re- slated at every point by the holder of goods and many schemes are being de vised by which prices may be main tained. The justice of this proposal la apparent aa applied to property pur chased at the high prices, but it must be remembered that those whose, stocks of goods were purchased at the pre-war price, and who took advan tage of the increase in the value of ttyelr holdings, should not complain if upon their replaced stocks of goods they are now forced to take a toss. LAW ENFORCEMENT. The attempt of Miss Lucy Page Gas, ton to start a crusade in this city for enforcement of the anti-eigaret law directs public attention to the fact that the law is being violated by local mer chants.' It also may serve to call to mind the fact that there is continuous violation of many other statutes and to arouse an inquiry as to why so rnny laws are Ignored by the public and the officers entrusted with their en forcement, The bureau of social liyglene has made public in part the results of an exhaustive study of police conditions In America to be presented in the forthcoming book, "American Police Systenls," by Raymopd B. Fosdick, formerly under secretary general 'of the League of Nations. In comment ing upon unenforceable laws in the United States, Mr. Fosdick says: "Another disadvantage under which American police departments are la boring is to be found in the presence on our statute books of laws which, because they interfere with customs widely practiced and widely regarded as innocent, are fundamentally unen forceable. The willingness with which we undertake to regulate by law the personal habits bf private citizens is -a. source of perpetual astonishment to Europeans." We are surrounded by penal laws whose only purpose is to enforce by threat eertain standards of morality. We are hodged about by arbitrary reg ulations, which at best represent only a portion of the public conscienee. An attempt rigidly to enforce all laws thruout this country would create a public turmoil such as probably never was imagined by the framers of thesa statutes. Often the laws are such as to defy enforcement even if they had behind them a substantial body of publio opinion. Thus there are laws against kissing, laws against face powder and rouge, laws against ear-rings, laws reg ulating the length of women's skirts, laws fixing the Else of hatpins. In Massachusetts one may not play cards for stakes even with friends in the pri vacy of one's home. In Texas card playing on trains is illegal. Recently in Baltimore the police suddenly descended in a series of raids to arrest all violators of the Sunday law. One hundred and thirteen peo ple were taken into custody in one day and 229 summonses were served. Those arrested included druggists, drivers of ice-cream trucks, barbers and bakery-shop keepers. Two men were arrested for balanc ing their books in their own homes. Belling a child a stick of candy consti tuted a heinous offense, and the buy ing of a piece of chewing gum or u loaf of bread caused the arrest of the store-keeper. One man was arrested for painting the gate in his back yard. Polieamen did not hesitate to ap proach a man who- happened to be smoking a cigar and question him as to how he came in its possession. If satisfactory answers were not forth coming the man was arrested. Efforts were made to persuade the police to allow a few men to continue working in a garage on the ground that a hun dred motor trucks stored there would freeze if not attended to. The police, however, refused, and two arrests were made of men who attempted to pre serve their property. This satire upon religious observ ance, said the Baltimore American, bors no fruit of holiness, but or the contrary fermented bitter feeling and vindictiveness. The public was strained almost to the Verge of physi cal violen'ce. The arrests were a dis grace to the city, and even the police men who under orders made them, and the magistrates who held the pre liminary hearings, shrank with disgust- from the tasks that were laid upon them. Mr. Fosdick is Quoted as follows: Nowhere in the world is there so great an anxiety to place the moral regulation of social affairs in the hands of the police, and nowhere are the police so Incapable of carrying out such regulation. Our concern, more over, is for externals, for results that are formal and apparent rather than essential. We are less anxious about preventing a man from doing wrong tor others than in preventing him from doing what we consider harm to him self. We like to pass laws to compel the individual to do as we think he ought to do for his own good. We attack symptoms rather than causes. and in doing so we create a species of moralistic despotism whlcn overrides the private conscience and destroys liberty where liberty Is most precious. From this condition arises one of the most embarrassing phases of the whole question of law enforcement. Mayors, administrations and police forces are more often and more suc cessfully attaeked from this point than from any other, and the consequences are corrupted policemen and shut fling executives who give the best ex cuse they ean think of at the moment for failing to do the Impossible, but are able to add nothing to the situa tion but a sense of their own perplex ity. Of all the cities visited by the writer, there was scarcely one that did not bear evidence of demoralization arising from attempts to enforce laws which instead of representing the win of the community, represented hardly anybody's will. Baseball fans will' be glad to have the League treaty, with proper "safe guards" and "reservations" ratified at Chicago. We want peace at home even if we cannot have it abroad. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Infc Bureau ormation FREDERIC T. HA SKIN, Dlreotnr, Washington, D. C. TEACH WOMEN TO WORK. Washington, D. C, Nov. 1J. Whether you like it er not, more wom en are going to work every year. And whether they like it or not, more women have to go to work every year. A good living earned in office or factory looks better to many of them than cooking on a gas stove in a little flat for whatever a man chooses to give them. They are finding also that it is possible to have a job and a hus band both. And lots of them have to take the Job because they can't find a husband who is able to support them. So many a girl is just as much on her own in life as her brother. Isn't it right and fair then to' give her just as good a training for the struggle she Is up against? The woman of brains may write for the newspapers or be a lawyer or doctor. The one seeking a trade is almost always forced into stenography, millinery or dress making. And, worst of all, compara tively few of them are encouraged to learn any trade or profession at all. While the boy is coached and encour aged and inspired, the girl is left alone on the old-fashioned assumption that some man will come along and take care of her. And if this assumption proves false, as it now so often seems to do, she starts out in her working life with only a few occupations open to her and very likely with no train ing for any of these. Is it fair? The question is raised and ably canvassed by the woman's bureau of the labor department, which has made a survey to find out what sort of work women are doing in the trades, and what training they are of fered in the schools. Where Women Displace Men. Women have in the past three years entered factories and shops to-do work previously" delegated to men only. Women had for years been employed in the textile and clothing trades, and at such work as making paper boxes and artificial flowers. Recently they have"" entered foundaries, machine shops, and factories making furniture, optical goods, instruments, gas masks, and airplanes. In a few of their jobs, chiefly where the work was heavy, women were found inadequate, but in the main they have developed satis factory skill in running machines and handling tools. As industry gets back to a peace basis, there is a slight reduction in the number of women employed in lumber industries, and a falling back to their pre-war status in chemical and miscellaneous Industries. In the metal trades, women are retaining their war-time hold. According to the woman's bureau, the chanees are that women will be used in increasing proportions in in. dustry as time goes on. For one thing, the proportion of women immigrants as compared to r-n is increasing. The woman's bur regards it as highly significant t there were more women com'.n '.to this country than leaving it in 1..18, altho in that year our total emigratioin exceeded our immigration. With this condition in mind, and nlso the faot that women are in de r and in some states in the so-called 1 en's Industries, the bureau set out to discover wl.at chances a woman has to take a vocational training course for technical work. What Schools Offer From statistics obtained, the bu reau found that high schools and trade schools apparently still assume that girls are interested in domestic science, dressmaking, and millinery, but not in automobile mechanics, wood-working, or blue-print reading. While boys are encouraged to take up such trades, girls are either 'not ad mitted to the classes, or if there is no ruling against "their admission, no at tempt is made to interest them by ex plaining the course and the opportun ities in that line of work. Of 104 1 hools in which women were enrolled In Industrial training courses last term, there were only three schools where women were taking au tomobile mechanics and repair. In two schools women had machine shop training; in two they were taught wood-working; in eight watchmaking and Jewelry trades; and in two glove making. Most of the courses In which women and girls were enrolled were the tra. ditlonal ones. Sixty-six schools taught tbe clothing trades, forty-seven milli nery, and eleven give, instruction in branches of the textile trade. It would be too much to expect that a large number of girls should clamor for courses in, say, automobile me chanics, if they merely knew that they would not be excluded if they should apply. When the trade schools were new, boys had to be interested in them. The Woman's Bureau main tains that a large proportion of girls could be interested in industrial train Ing. 1 The old contention that a girl looks upon a Job merely as a dull interlude between school and a husband is fail ing. There are thousands of women in factories who have dependents at home, and there are other thousands who add their earnings to those of their husbands. It is believed tho there is no figures available that It is more common for girl workers to turn in all of their wages to their families than for their brothers to do so.. Most of these women are eager for advancement and take a real in terest in the work they do. Where Women Excel. Women have made good in work re quiring attention to fine detail, in In specting products, in assembling and finishing furniture, and grinding and polishing optical lenses. They are not. as a class, very desirable in foundries and rolling mills where heavy weights are to be lifted and smoke and heat are intense, tho they have been used satisfactorily at work requiring weights to be lifted when pulleys or some otlur mechanical apparatus bears the strain. From its observation of women In factories and shops, the bureau con cludes that abilities vary not so much by sex as by the individual, and that therefore it is difficult to say exactly where a woman's limitations in in dustry are to be fixed. A few women are interested in blacksmithlng. A much larger number want to be auto mobile mechanics, i Few women have the physical strength to pound on an anvil, and many lack the necessary qualifications to become expert me chanics. But some women hate an in clination for these trades, which is not more unnatural, the bureau believes, than for a man to be a tailor or a stenographer. The department of labor has ne idea of advocating that women should not fit themselves for the clothing or millinery trades if their bent lies that way. But Miss Mary Anderson, chief of the woman's bureau, says that these industries are overcrowded, and that the government should see to It that girls and women are given the same opportunities for training in other to, cations as men and boys receive, espe cially as skilled girl workers "are In demand in some of the manufacturing states. The woman's bureau hac no author ity to fix policies for schools of the country to provide an equal chance for all pupils to learn a vocation- It can only set forth the facts. In its report it brings out the point that the act under which the federal board for vo cational education functions, provides that the board may financially assist state schools. This provision is now being almost entirely used to help train boys for occupations, whereas. Miss Anderson claims, girls are equally entitled to the benefits of the act. JUST A GIRL By JANE PHELPS A LETTER AND A NOTE. CHAPTER 145." f The first thing I saw when I open ed my eyes was Kenneth's letter. I felt guilty that I hadn't read it the night before, and started to get it just as Aunt Susan brought me thy breakfast on a. tray. "You'll spoil me!" I told her laugh ing. "The idea of a working girl be ing waited on and eating her break fast in bed, for all the world like a society belle!" "You don't get much spoiling now adays. I guess it won't hurt you to pretend you are a society belle, and let me wait on you." She drew up a small stand, arranged the tray, drew up the shade, and then left me. I would let the letter go until after I had my coffee, I thought. Then, as I ate, I went over the? incidents of the night before the ride, the din ner, our dancing, then the ride home in the moonlight. How I had en joyed myself. It was with still an other feeling of guilt that I recalled that not once had I felt that I was an employe, or that Frank Claxton Lhad in any way acted as if I were. staving no cniiaren or ner own. Aunt Susan would have liked to mother the whole world. And really she spoiled me as far as she could during her entire visit. When she came in for the tray, she pushed me back among the pillows, drew down the shade, and raising-a warning fin ger ordered me to go right back to sleep. Laughingly I closed my eyes, in tending as soon as she left the. room to read my letter- But instead I drowsed, and finally fell asleep, not to waken until nearly noon. "Feel rested?" she asked, just put ting, her head in at the door. "I heard you moving about so concluded you were up." "I feel like a bird! If only I had wings I would fly," I told her. "I'll hurry and dress and help with lunch." "Don't want your help. Your mother has gone to market, and I'm making a chocolate cake." She knew I was extremely fond of it, and often made that and other delicious dishes to tempt me. "Now I'll be sure to hurry." I bad not yet read my letter, but I would dress first and then read It. Reluctantly Jtirew the thick letter from the envelope. "What ails, me?" I asked myself the question Impa tiently. I rhotild be glad to hear from Kenneth, and I wasn't! Figuratively shaking myself, I sat down by the window and read: "Dear Zena: In only six weeks now I shall come for you. v I had hoped to pay you a visit in' the meantime, but it has been utterly Impossible. Work on the ranch has demanded my personal attention.' You would not have me neglect it, I am sure even for you, orrather, for you own pleasure. "Has the time seemed long to you? Have you decided you will be happy with me on the ranch you and your mother? It is very healthy here, and will be good for both of you. "If you like you can have that Aunt Susan you write about 'Come out, too. Anyway she can visit you as often as you wish. I judge she is a nice, capable sort of a woman, and there is always something to do on a big ranch for everyone so dis posed. "I Intended to have some of the rooms done over, but will let you attend to them. I haven't perhaps Just the taste that would suit you. You see I am taking it for granted that you are coming back with me. I am sure you would have told me before this if you were not. "I shall be unable to remain in Chicago more than two or three days, so plan accordingly. "Remember me to your mother and your aunt if she is stiJJ with you. But keep all my love for your self. Kenneth." I read the letter over twice. He was taking my answer for granted sure it was to be "yes" when I was no nearer a decision than when he left. I must make up my mind at once! "This just came for you." Aunt Susan laid a box in my lap. I opened it violets and a note! "Dear Zena I shall call for you tomorrow at 3, and we'll motor out into the country. Frank Claxton." I burled my face In the fragrant flowers. Then I lifted from my lap Frank Claxton's note arid Kenneth Lawrence's letter. Frank's note I pressed against my cheek, while Ken neth's letter dropped back into my lop. "It is the unattainable we always de sire." I had read that somewhere and it came into my mind. But as I put the violets in water I murmured: I "I must decide at once!" (Tomorrow- Zena is bewildered. JUST FOLKS BY EDGAR A. CVEST.. I WOtlD BE A PLAIN MAX.

Which is not at all like him commonly he la a rock of refuge for anybody in the neighborhoodWho lets herself get over-girled. Yott see he can do anything cars, waited saddle horses, two canoes on the mill pond, a delightful big old house, with an adorable aunt to play propriety at need, money in both pockets, a sweet disposition, and the most engaging brand of ugliness, unique, even distin guished. He claims to have helped rear me and intimates that he is not proud of lilts JUU, X S1IUW 1IUW U 1 1 i .1 L as guff for public consumption. Pri vately he looks another story tho he hadn't ever asked me outright, my mind was quite made up to marry him, when I was good and ready say after I was rising twenty-five. Maybe I ought to have told him but it takes so little to make a man give himself airs even John. Then really couldn't conceive his giving Lady Loring a thought, except as my friend. Yet he called up at an ungodly hour just after daybreak. "Wake up the lady bird and have her ready to ride with me," he said. "Your togs will fit her she'll look fine in my Mexfcan saddle and tell her to let her hair fly it is a 'dead match to Trimble Tee's mane and tail." The impertinence of him! It took my breath a second. I flared out at hint like a house afire, but he only laughed back. "Don't be foolish, Nancy. Green eyes don't become you not one bit." Then as I gasped, "You shall have roses washed in dew if you're good. Otherwise well, the Lady Bird won't be jealous of sis ter blossoms." Of course, I froze after that, bade him come in a hurry, routed up lady she was horribly cross until she knew why then she asked me as she went into the bath room: "How rich is this scarecrow of yours, Nan? I mean In real money belongings don't Interest me I must invest myself for hard cash, you know." "I think he has as much as seven dollars." I flung after her, so angry I could barely keep my voice steady. I wanted to tell her she'd be lucky to get on a barsalp counterbut didn't being a hostess cramps your style sometimes. When they rode off to breakfast at the Pines I had to laugh John rode so easy and lady so hard. It was about her third time- in saddle I knew she wanted to hold on to Trim ble Toe's mane but she didn't I must say she was game. Just then dad come down, wearing mostly a dressing gown and a worried look. Mother was ill he had called the doctor now it was up te me to call off the garden party due that afternoon mother wasn't able to en dure noises or chatter, squealing, mo tors, and so forth, to say nothing of jazs, even on the lawn. A pretty big order but luckily I waited till after breakfast to start carrying it out. The riders were back then Lady with her nose burnt scarlet at the tip. John lifted her ewn Just as tho she had been me, and set her on the piazza, so I had to say: "Oh, do your boots pinch, dear? I'm so sorry! Get them off quick." John frowned, a little but forgot it when he heard the pickle I waa in and like an angel got me out of it. Went home and took the party bodily off my hands. I loved him for it until he called up to tell me everything was arranger, and wound up with: "Of course you won't like to leave your dear mother, so I'm coming to fetch the Lady Bird.in time to help Aunt Jane receive." That made me murderous but I had ngt time even to see red for here came the Lorton car, with Jessie Far rel and Elsie Duke inside all packed around with bags, and suit cases, and things, and explaining that they had come this Thursday instead of waiting until Saturday, when they were ex pected, because they were coming any way to the party, and Mrs. Lorton sighed over the price of gasoline. But after all, it wasn't so bad I called up John telling him to bring the big car not the roadster that is, unless he wanted to make three trips tete-a-tgte. When mother had fallen asleep I tiptoed into Lady's room found Ijer whimpering on the bed, her blistered nose dripping cold cream, her feet swollen two sizes, and red as beets. "But they a are cot the w worst," she spluttered, "I I can't s sit down I'm so so sore. But I I must go. Even tho it a seems I can't hardly s stand." "Of course, you must go you shall, if I have to get a litter." I said crisp ly determined John sltould see the wreck of his happiness while the wrecking was in the acute stage. Lady's eyes were In commission the most dangerous things about her but somehow they didn't seem formidable with a red nose in between. Elsie Duke is my evil genius she's taken that first aid thing by time she got thru with her lotions and salves and grease paints outright, she had Lady on foot, looking a bare shade the worse for the ride. "Keep your veil down, and walk Spanish." she gig gled, "and sit out most of the dances," she admonished as they sat waiting for John. Instead came the big car, with the handsomest young creature I ever saw at the wheel. He sang out bare headed, "I'm nobody but Tommy. Got to stow my load shipshape old John ordered a call for one more passenger." "She can have wou room." I said primly It was all I could manae-e-r-with the crowd leaving me behind. Tommy grinned, "If you were dresped I'd take you in my lap," he said. "See that you are dressed when I come back for you unless you want to ruin my sweet disposition." The Impertinent! But he didn't have to wait. Mother fairly made me go and wear my pale blue frock with the pink roses on it. Tommy was in the roadster. I knew him perfectly if I had never seen him John's step-cousin and sworn friend. Jut home from the wars. John had told me how funnv he was. likewise how audacious; still it took me all aback to have him say. stopplns dead and patting my shoulder: "Cousin Nan, I am taking time 'to tell you you're playing the fool with a pre fix, if you understand." "As how?" J asked him. trying to make a joke ff it. "Playing games with a full grown man worth any hundred of the rest, as tho he was a Jumping-jack. Mind how you cut your notches, or you'll have him jumping into a red hot hell." "Name it if you can," I said, chills crawling up and down my spine. "No need." he said. "Td never scandalize a lady" slight emphasis here. "But there are ladies and ladies. John may g(t too fond of the J wrong sort. One who ran rigs over yonder uniform to the contrary not-I withstanding. I can't warn him for! reasons. I'd hate awfully to threaten her. Now wi-! you be good?" "'"How?" I asked, more chills down my spine. Tommy laughed aloud. "You ask an infant to tutor you," he said. "I think it would be a good omen if you told old man John you'd do anything he said hereafter." Will you believe it I managed somehow to do just that before the party broke up? (Copyright, 1920, oy the McClure News paper Syndicate.) Dorothy Dix Talks BT DOROTHY PIX Werld's Hlcbest rait Wsssjub Writer, For That Tired Feeling. 3. If you are tired of your work and environment, and circumstances are so that you cannot change them, why not try changing your own viewpoint towards them Everything in life depends upon the way in which we look upon it. The only difference between work and play is our own attitude towards it. It costs a man a lot of money to drive his own automobile, and he calls that sport. He hires a man to drive that same automobile, and that man calls it work,- but both men have done ex actly the same thing. Most girls consider that they are having the time of their lives when they go shopping, and peacock around before long mirrors in imported gowns, and wraps that they haven't the money j to Duy; -out wnen a girt is paiq tor showing how lovely she looks in gor geous finery, she bewails her fate as a poor, downtrodden working girl. So you see it is all in the angle that you get on your fate, t know just as many rich girls who are bored te death with having nothing worth while to do, as I do working girls who are tired of having something definite they have got to do. Believe me, my dear, you can get Just as sick of dragging around as you can of pounding a type writer, and you can come to hate the inane chatter of willyboys just as much as you can the line of conversation your boss carries. So the best cure for that tired feel ing is to quit looking upon your job as a curse, and to regard it is a bless ing. Just reflect that it stands be tween you and want. You are inde pendent, self-respecting, honored by all who know you. No shadow lies across the white pathway of your girl hood. When you look at the poor bedraggled creatures of the streets, skulking along in the shadows, just think that but for your ability to make your own living you might have be longed to that sorrowful sisterhood. You cannot stop to rest tiecause of the helpless ones of your family who are dependent -upon you. It Is hard that your slender young shoulders must bear such heavy burders, but when you think of your mother in the poorhouse, your- little sisters and brothers In the cold, forlorn shelter of an orphan asylum, does it not make you want to go down on your knees and thank God for the job that en ables you to keep your own home fires burning? And, lastly, for that tired feeling, shake up your self-conceit, and take a good strong dose as often as required. Quit looking upon yourself as a mar tyr, and get a slant on yourself as a conqueror. No woman in the world has such a right to be proud of her self as the girl who by her own brains and ability eannot only take care of herself, but support her fam ily. Just for a woman to be able to hold down a good Job entitles her to wear on her breast the feminine Cross of the Legion of Honor. Speed up your work, little sister, try to do It better, and be glad you've got it to do. That is the sure cure for that tired feeling. (Copyright, 19K). by tb Wbeeier Syndicate, inc.) Dinner Stories After a ruthless process of rejec tion there were five applicants for the post of errand boy left for the head of the firrrr himself to interview. It was one of his flippant mornings and he sought to amuse himself by asking the eager boys puzzling and quite irrelevant questions to test their general knowlodge, "How far away from the earth Is the north star?" was the question he fired at the third 'Shiny-faced young ster. "I'm sorry I cannot give you the exact figures offhand, sir," was the re ply, "but on a rough estimate I should say that It is far enough away not to interfere with me running errands." He got the post. Some time since a business man ad vertised tor an office boy, and it wasn't long before an ambitious youngster of the red headed type was applying for the place. Immediately the examination began. "Say, mister," finally remarked the boy after several minutes of close questioning, "what kind of a boy do yen want anyhow?" "I want a nice quiet boy," answered the man, "who doesn't smoke, use bad language, whistle around the office, play tricks, get into mischief "You don't want a boy. mister," broke in the youngsters starting for the door. "What you want is a girl." LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOCK BT 1MB PAPK. PLEECBMEV. pimmn are ont weather it rains or not, I They certainly deserve onr pity.

(From rhtUdtdphia Pmbue Ledget.) The) Tonne; Fellow la Pretty Good Sir I am Just a young fellow. I like your column. I would like to run a column myself. I am going to be a writer, and am preparing myself with, that object In view. I inclose a bit I simply bad to get out of my system: I have just been te a prize fight. Women were there Lovely women with, their men Of a sort. And Kid Williams smashed Willie Mur phy's eye. I watched tone of those women And saw her laugh and cheer. I think I saw more than that: I saw her, herself, not the same As when she supped at the Kits, Or motored along the boulevard. She was a woman incarnate Cheering the strongest, Cheering the brute. And I thought you may argue Till doomsday For your freedom and rights; Yon may talk of your Intellect And literary lights, Unt you can't get away from It, Tbe facts are too plain, A woman's a woman They ail are same. D. H. As we have noted, the young fellow is pretty good. To us his stuff is as in- telilaible as. sav. Amv Lowell s. But having established the fact tHat a woman's a woman and that they are all the same what does he purpose do ing about it? Nor can we understand why the young fellow wants to do- a column. Nothing else, we are prepared to say, cuts so deeply into one's leisure hours. We estimate that the necessity of writ ing a column has deprived us of 11.683 rounds of golf. It has spoiled 1T23 fishing trips. Had we not deliberately chosen the job, of columnist we could have consumed 18,000 additional ci gars and 609 pounds of smoking to bacco. Time nd again the writing or the column has kept us away from the baseball and football games. It has spoiled many delightful moments of mental inanition and has deprived us cf what hasr come to be the birth right of every American citizen th privilege of doing nothing. As an ad venture columnlng is unsatisfactory; as a career it is a total loss. We do not recommend It to any young fellow. The hero of the late campaign has Been seiectea. He is Mr. Will H. Hays, ef Sullivan county, Indiana. The eolumn concurs in the selection on the theory that, in the long run, one hero is as satisfactory as an other. But in return for our willing ness to make the selection unanimous We shall exact the privilege of select ing the heroine of the camnaisrn (Cries of "Name her!") She is Miss Lowden,. daughter of the governor or Illinois and a potential nominee of the .Republican party for president. It was on that hot Saturday after noon in unicago. with the adjourn ment of the convention for luncheon had come the consciousness that War ren G. Harding would be nominated for president before the convention adjourned its afternoon session. Tho "tip" was on everybody's lips. Ohio's Iron gray entry was coming home. It was question, at the most, of a few snort hours, at the least of minutes. The Harding rooters had marched away to the Coliseum shouting, "We're on the way and we've got some place to go!" Grammatically speaking, it was an inelegancy. But it carried conviction, Lowden headquarters In the Con gress Hotel was as ouiet as a country side. The governor's loyal supporters stood about in groups talking in mum bled tones. One group gathered about the telephone. And on the edge of mat group was a slender, dark-eyed girl. She may have been twentv- three; she may have been younger. As the balloting proceeded the man at the phone noted by states and by delega tions the culmination of the Harding anve. rreaenuy ne looaea up ana. doubtless thru force of habit, placed his hands over the receiver. "Gov ernor Lowden," he said, "has released his delegates." It was as if the light of paralysis had touched every man assembled. They looked from one to the other and none found tongue Their house of hopes lay In shattered fragments about them and they were mute and inglorious.
The girl straightened and looked the world squarely in the face. A little laugh, a very little laugh, rlppld,upon her lips. "Well," she said "maybe I'll get to see my family now. I haven't seen mamma for a week; I haven't seen papa for a month." And then she turned and walked out of the room as blithely as a swallow takes the azure heights.

My husband is a Civil war veteran and waa injured dur ing that war by being run over by a truck. He is a great, care, but as I can not afford to hi-e help, I am trying to care for him ngyself. Now I am told that I will not be able to draw a pen sion after he passes away. Is this true? I broke down my health when I was young and I married my husband for a home and the hope of drawing a pension after his death to take care of myself. Will you tell me whether I will be able to draw a pension or not? THANK YOU. As you do not state the year of your marriage I cannot tell you definitely whether or not you can got a soldier's widow's pension; but a law passed re cently1 wll prevent pensions being granted to widows of Civil war veter ans if tholr marriage occurred after 190B.

Kansas university made a wonderful finish Saturday against the mighty Nebraska football team at Lawrence. All thru the first half the mighty Corn iiusktTs played rings arounu the Crim son and iilue aggregation, but the second half showed a K. U. team com- back on the field with the old pep and punch. The score at the end of the first half showed the Cornhuskers leading by a 20 to 0 score. sDr. Korrest C. Allen, known in Law rence as the miracle man and rightly named, talked to his warriors like a Dutch uncle between the halves and told them to open up with the forward pass. The Kansas field generals did this and as a result of beautiful pass ing and the brilliant work of the great Maude ville, Kansas scored a touch down in the third quarter and kicked goal. The comeback of the Jayhawk- ers seemed to demoralize the Schulte team and before thev knew what was happening another touchdown and goal were made by the K. U. fighters, putting them only six points behind and within striking distance of the Cornhuskers. The Crimson and Blue bleachers were crying "fight 'em hard boys," and the way the Jay hawkers responded was marvelous. The passing game was started again and another touch down was added to the growing Kan sas score, ma King notn teams were the 3tars of the game. The Santa Fe team will play Carbondale at To peka on November 21. Punk Simp son of Washburn college, refereed and called 'em like a big leaguer. Saturday's Football Results. IN THE VALLEY.

Bill, Topeka 1 l:es to see you out there call ing the p'.ays. St Mary s had a big delegation here to get a line on the Washburn team. Coach Steve O'Rourke followed the plays up and down the sidelines as did D. J. Lane, father of the great St. Mary's backf'cld star, also a number of the Blue and Whiter, team were on hand to look at the team that will line up against them Thursday at St. Mary's. Kmporia brought a big delegation of rooters and a b'g brass band to pull for the Henry team. They serenaded The State Journal before going to the field. The Red and White cheer leader kept the vis. tors' cheering going in great shape except when Washburn had the ball, showing that they were real fellows and good sports. Two veteran officials were on the sidelines, Carl Moore and Doctor Fin ney. Both of these boys are real of ficials and whenever in charge of games in The Kansas conference, there is never a complaint on the part of the coaches. Who played the beet game for Washburn? The answer, every maa on the Blue team save all he had for his college and Dwight Ream. Heavy Irvin, with his bad knee swollen to twice its normal size, foulght like a tiger. Falmatier did some of the best work ever seen on the local gridiron. Simpson, playing in the backfield, made some beautiful gains and ran fine interference for h.s teammates. Wykoff was the boy that started the punch in the Washburn attack, tearing holes thru the very center of the Pres byterian line for big gains. He also played a wonderful game on the de fense. Three men onthe College of Em poria team stand" out prominently as the bright outstanding stars of the ilea ana White eleven- Grant, the lit tle halfback, did some wonderful broken field running, his last sprint of foty-five yards thru a broken field for the touchdown that tied the score was one of the greatest runs ever seen on a Washburn gridiron and reminded the old timers of Pinky Beals. Captain Harr at end was a tower of strength. The light haired leader was kicking beautifully and time after time he broke thru and threw the Wash burn backs before they were able to get started. Jacquith at Quarter again demon strated that he is without a doubt the best quarterback in the conference. He called his signals fast and watched to see if Washburn switched to meet the Red and White attack, if they did he sent his team around the other side. His return of punts was great; time after time he shook off tacklers and went on for a few more yards. A word of praise is due to Capt. Marvin Stevens, the scrappy leader of the big Blue team. After Emporia scored and things looked hopeless for Washburn. Steve called his players to gether and begged them to fight on. It was his fine words of encourage ment that kept the Ichabods on their toes thruout the entire battle. He called his signals well and carried the ball for several nice gains. RJY TIE GAME 14 TO 14 Washburn and C. of F In Spectacular Battle Saturday. When Old! Sol had almost finished his course thru the sky Saturday af ternoon and the pure gold of his rays became tinged with the crimson sun set, he looked upon the College of Emporia team struggling gamely but apparently hopelessly to avert defeat at the hands of Washburn's big Blue team. These crimson rays, superior in power to the mighty violet ray in spired the flagging n-.uscles and minds of the red and white warriors to a final effort which wrenched victory from the Ichabods and converted the annual struggle into a drawn battle at fourteen points each. Fumbling was tht feature of the first half, a slippery field made it Im possible for the backs to hold the ball. After Washburn recovered a fumbled kickoff and in turn fumbled on the third play McNair's digits grabbed the oval and with perfect interference he raced eighty yards for an Emporia touchdown, while the Rooters from William Allen White's town on the south side of the field went wild with joy and figured the game as already tucked away, after the goal was kicked giving Henry's men a lead of seven points. Captain Stevens of Washburn called his men around him and begged them with tear3 in his eyes to figrht like they fought at Kansas and at Ne braska. The response was there in bunches. The mighty Wykoff tore thru the Presbyterian line like a spoon going thru mashed potatoes. Pal matier worked beautifully with him and Simpson playing his first game in the backfield made some pretty gains. With the band playing "On Old Washburn," Wykoff crashed over the line for the touchdown that put the old fight into the big Blue team and a few minutes later with the same line bucking attack with Palmatier wig gling thru, the Ichabods set the pace putting over another touchdown and kicking the goal that made the score 14 to 7. Something happened during that long rest between halves. Was it a long talk or a vehement lecture from Gwin Henry, the Emporia coach, in terlarded perhaps, with choice verbal barbs in several languages? Iiid' the wearers of the red and white stripes swallow a dynamite cartridge apiece as a light repast? Did they could it be possible that somebody had brought along a iiagon 01 cnoice juices now under an alleged ban? Whatever happened, something happened. An altogether renovated Emporia team, surcharged with vigor and absolutely ignorant that such a thing as defeat existed, galloped forth onto the field for the second half. It had everything speed, power, ac curacy, and also as a useful adorn ment, a forward passing game that was flexible and effective. All of these tributes it showered profusely upon the Washburn team, and the re sult, the attack of the big Blue team was slowed up temporarily and Grant, the visitor's star halfback, on a pretty criss-cross play raced forty five yards for the score that tied up the game and at this stage of the game the downhearted Emporia rooters nearly went wild with joy, multiply the other demonstrations' by 100 and you have only a small idea of how the red and white cohorts performed.. There isn't an alienist in the world that would have allowed an instant's freedom to any one of Coach Henry's supporters After the score was tied the Wash- burn team started again for the Em- i poria goal but fumbles and poor Judg ment in the selection of plays kept the Blue from putting over the winning touchdown.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL MONDAY EVENING. NOVEMBER 15, 1920 PAIR ISJN BAD Army Captain and Wife Face Theft Charges. Evidence Points Toward Steal lng From Service Club. Washington, Nov. 15. Army and society circles buzzed with excitement today over the case of Capt. Beverely Chew and Mrs. Chew, who were ar rested on a charge of having stolen 14.000 worth of clothing, linen and other articles from a furnished -apartment they rented In a fashionable apartment house here. Mrs. Chew is also charged with stealing a $500 sealskin coat from the exclusive Army and Navy club. Friends of Captain Chew, who claims to have been grassed and shell shocked in the war, declared the offi- cer and his wife will prove their Inno cence.

The army captain and his wife were brought to the police station for ques tioning and while there detectives found a ealskin coat with a lining corresponding to the sample in the bathroom of the Chew rooms, they said. Other officers said they found the Chews had sent a trunk from their apartment a short time before arup that it held the furnishings which the Chews are charged with stealing.

Moonshiners Are "ew Kansas Problem, Sajs Wilson. Prohibition Makes Importation Unprofitable 3'ow. F. L. GRABBE WELCOMED TODAY New State Superintendent Anti Saloon League Here, Attorney General, Churches, riedge Support in Fight. The bootleprger is on his last legs in Kansas, and now the "moonshines over the cowshed" in every Kansas county, Warren Wilson, federal prohi bition enforcement agent for the state of Kansas, told a meeting of the head quarters committeemen, local direc tors, and other leaders of the Anti Saloon League, who gathered at the Chamber of Commerce today to wel come informally F- L.. Crabbe, who has been appointed the new state super intendent of the league in Kansas. Guests at the dinner included Jus tice John Marshall, of the Kansas su preme court; Attorney General Rich ard J. Hopkins. Wilson, and others. O.

Economic conditions, Wilson said, were responsible for the fact that it is now more profitable to make liquor in the state of Kansas than to go to the border estates and import it, General prohibition has made the price of whisky as high in Kansas City. Mo., and in Joplin, as it is in central Kan sas, and there is no more profit in im portation, he said. That is why the moonshiner is com ing to the fore, and enforcement of prohibition in this state has assumed an entirely new angle. Wilson ex plained in some detail the work of his department, and vrged that the pro jected cutting down of the activity in the state along that line, be opposed by the League. Still Need Officers. "I don't want to challenge Governor Allen and Senator Curtis in some of their campaign speeches', when they indicated, that they favor cutting down governmental expenses by abolishing a department which was no longer necessary," said Wilson. "But when they say that we have prohibition now and there is no longer any necessity for a swarm of agents to figlit the -liquor traffic, they are mistaken. I am sure, without being able to prove it, that there is not a county in the state of Kansas which is without one or more illicit stills today." "Law enforcement in the state of Kansas is popular. The time has come when it is a populai thing with the people to enforce the laws which are on the statute books whether they are good or bad. If a law is bad, it can very quickly be removed," said Justice Marshall, of the state supreme court, in welcoming the new state superin tendent of the league. "Ninety-five per cent of .he people of Kansas are idealists. We have more idealists than any other state in the union, and we are for the enforcement of prohibi tion," Judge Marshall declared. Support Is Pledged. Richard J. Hopkins, attorney general-of the stafe, together with the other state officials present, pledged tjie support of his department and the fullest co-operatidn in dealing with the liquor traffic. Rev. S. B. Aldersbn, speaking for several representatives of the ministry present ""at the meeting, assured Mr. Crabbe of the assistance of the-church organizations of the state in fighting liquor. Mr. Crabbe is a former Ohio attor ney, and has been engaged in the work of the Anti-Saloon League in Ohio and other states, for several years. He has been working for the league in Wyoming, and will shortly move his family to Topeka. Colonel Dan Morgan Smith, who spoke recently in Topeka in the inter ests of the Anti-Saloon league, gave Mr. Crabbe's work in other states the highest praise, stating that he was within a few places of the top in the ranks of the prohibtion warriors of the country. There was no mention of cigarets, tobacco, or anything other than "booze," during the meeting. Won't Fight Cigarets. "We do not intend to take up the cigaret proposition," Mr. Crabbe said before the luncheon. "There is plenty to do wiping out the last vestings pf the liquor business in this state, and that is what we are going to work on." The year 1930 has been set by the Anti-Saloon League leaders as the dawn of prohibition in every country in world where the English, language is spoken. $33.33 ....$40.00 346.67 $53.33 $60.00 in between on sale at 30 off in i i KILL TWO GIRLS "I Youngr Actresses Meet Death in' Mysterious Manner. Bodies Found on Lake Shore by Chicago Police. SEEN FIGHTING WITH MEN Phone Call to Officers Being Traced. Physicians Hunt Eridence "Knock-Out" Drops. of Chicago, Nov. 15. Mystery sur rounding the death of two young ac tresses, whose bodies were found in Grant park, a short distance from the Art institute yesterday, was deepened today when the one slender clue to the identity of the man who notified police where the bodies could be found was lost. Telephone company employes who traced the call to the office of an in surance company six blocks from the scene, today discovered they had made a mistake and that the message was sent from a pay station booth in a Michigan avenue hotel a block from the Art institute. Caused by "Knock-Out Drops." Police are working on the theory that the girls, Marie Alma Ramey and Lillian Thompson, were attacked by the men with whom they had gone on a Joy ride, and left lying uncon scious probably from the effects of "knock-out drop'" in the park, where they succumbed, either from a over dose of the drops, or from cold.x Their companions, police believe, re turned about 9 o'clock Sunday 'morn ing in their automobire, and finding the girls lying Where they had been thrown from the machine, drove to the hotel and notified the police, then fled. John Thompson, of New York, father of one of the girls, is expected here today. I Tew Marks round. The two bodies were found early yesterday by police in Grant park, on the lake front. Both had been bruised and cut on the face and hands as tho from being dragged over the ground. There were no other marks. The women, inderitified as Kastern actresses, are Mary Rhodes of Altoona, Pa., and Lillian Thompson, Boston. Two men, Robert McCarthy of Bos ton, and James Meeks of Salt Lake, made the identification. Both are electricians with a theatrical company here and were living at the same hotel where the dead women stopped. According to Meeks and McCarthy, the two girls disappeared Saturday. One theory advanced was that they had gone on a cabaret tour, been drugged and then taken to the lake front and thrtfwn from an automobile. The bodies were discovered thru a telephone call which the police traced to an office in a downtown skyscraper. No one was found, however, who ad mitted knowing of the call. The informant, according to police, satd he had been driving with his wife and daughter and saw the bodies as he drove by. The two women were being forced linto.an automobile by two men. ac-l coramg to tne word ol the anonymous informer. He Bald onj of the men was fighting with one of the women and was. dragging her Into the machine. Tne other woman went to her com- ti l. n c Miu, uui was pusneu away. The informer said he went tn the Assistance of -the two women butf was toid to "beat It." Fearing for his life, he said he ran. live Men Jiow Held. Five men were held by police today in connection with the crime. They included James G. Meeks and Robert McCarthy, electricions for the Jane Cowl company playing "Smilin" Thru" at a local theater, who admitted they had been living with the two women at a dowtown apartment hotel since they came to Chicago. The two women were married, but had petitioned for divorces, the men said. Othrs held were Silvio and Peter Citti, wine merchants, who gave the girls some wine Saturday night, and James Comas, cook, who was fre quently seen in company with the B'rls. Follow Poison Clew. Analysis of the contents of the stomachs of the dead women wa be ing made by physicians today. On first examination, physicians said they believed death was due in part at least to poisoning by wood alcohol or some other powerful drug. Police claimed today they had lo cated the man who made the mysteri ous telephone call early yesterday ap prising them of the death and loca tion of the two women. The call, they said was made from the Stafford hotel and not from an of fice building as first reported. They refused additional details.

Murder and other felonies really are not serious matters in Kansas these days. A sympathetic state with a broad and generous Christian spirit and an idea of reform, brings much joy to the person convicted of crime. E. I Barrier, member of the state board of administration, has figured that there is little reason for alarm when a person is sentenced to the state penitentiary. Barrier is a member of the state legislature. He will probably have several important comments to make on existing laws when the lawmakers meet in January. Since June 30, 1918 sixteen months the state board has sent home six-1 teen men convicted of first degree murder. This record showing the re-i lease of one murderer a month is per-) haps the record for leniency by states of the Union. The percentage of paroles is also a near record. Barrier believes. The state doesn't hesitate to spend her money convicting people of crime. But once they reach Lansing, a reformation seems to begin that im presses the prieon officials and in turn i3 reflected in action by pardon offi cials. Barrier has figured that per sons convicted of murder now serve an average of six years, two months and twenty-one days. TEX DAYS TO DECIDE CASK Industrial Court Take Time In Dedd ind Ellis Phone Caee. The Industrial court will take ten days in which to decide the Ellis tele phone case. Complaints from offi cials of the company to the effect that delays in rate increases threat ened ruin to the corporation. Judge George W. Wark insists the court can not be expected to make immediate decisions. The court's engineering department has just completed a report on the case. Evidence in the rate application was heard in July.

The "suggestive method of dress of Topeka girls and "the increasing de generation of tyles of dancing" came under a hot attack by the mcmbvs of the Protestant Ministerial Alliance of Topeka in the regular meeting ot that body this morning. A resolu tion condemning such alleged condi tions was passed unanimously by the alliance and will be presented to the board of education at the board's next meeting, in order to convey the feelins of the ministers to the school authori ties. They Don't Favor Mixed Dancing. "Mixed dancing"' is looked upon with much disfavor by members of the alliance. At previous meetings of tho alliance dancing among pub lic school students has been under discussion with the result that the resolution was framed and presented today Resolutions Are Passed. The resolution passed follpws: "In view of the present suggestive methods of dress on the part of our young women and the increasing de generation of the styles of dancing; also that many of the teachers and patrons or the public school system are opposed to mixed dancing among students, we are concerned about the present social situation which main tains at our high school functions and therefore, we as members of the Protestant Ministerial Alliance of the churches of Topeka believe that it is for the best moral influence of both the youth and the community that mixed dancing be eliminated from the social functions of the schools by those responsible for the educational leader ship of our youth." "We do not' mean to -go on record against tolk dancing," said the Rev. A. E. Gregory,, pastor, of the First Congregational church and chairman of the morals committee which pre sented the resolution. "It is mixed dancing among the students that is responsible for the deplorable condi tion." Members of the" morals com mittee are the Rev. B. H. Hobbs, the Rev. M. G. Munn, the Rev. Morris and the Rev. Gregory. Sunday "movies" will not be shown In Topeka if the ministerial alliance can prevent, according to the united opinion of all who attended the meet ing. A special committee from the alliance will call upon Mayor Herbert J. Corwine to protest against any movement which may be made in fvor of motion pictures on Sunday. Complaint was made, also, that a num ber of uncensored motion pictures are being shown In Kansas. Investigation of certain amusements carried on at the Kansas Free Fair was made by a special committee and a report by the chairman of the com mittee, the Rev. Hobbs, showed that all such amusements which had been understood to be as illegal and of gambling character, were permissible under the law.

Do you &ive it a hasty daily washing with any old soap? Or do you perhaps depend on cold cream to remove dirt and dust? Either method is dangerous and invites bad results. Careless washing mates the skin rougji and coarse. Yet complexions feet soft and flabby without the tonic of water. The secret is make washing your face a real beauty treatment. How by using Palmolive Soap, the beautifying cleanser. The Palmolive lather is so mild that it cleanses without irritation, no matter how sensitive is your skin. 1 Profuse and creamy, it penetrates every tiny pore, removing the dirt, dust and oil secre tions, which, when neglected, clog and irritate. Apply Palmolive' Cold Cream and apply it liberally. If your skin is dry, use it both before and after washing. Palmolive is the scientific modern combina tion of the Palm and Olive oils Cleopatra used. It is the favorite facial soap of millions who have learned that while you pay more you can't buy better. THE PALMOLIVE COMPANY. MILWAUKEE, U. S. A. PALMOLIVE "Why doesn't it cost more? Because the Palmolive factories work day and ni&ht to supply the demand. Because the rare Palmolive ingredients are bought in enormous quantities. Thus the price of Palmolive is kept moderate no more than for ordinary soap. It can be enjoyed by every woman and procured everywhere. TWENTY YEARS AGO Looking Backward in Society Columns of The State Journal November 15, 1900.

HOW DOCTORS TREAT COLDS AND THE FLU First Step in Treatment Is a Brisk Purgative With Calo tabs, the Purified and Refined Calomel Tablets That Are Nausealess, Safe and Sure. Doctors have found by experience that no medicine for colds and influ enza oan be depended upon for full ef fectiveness until the liver is made thor oughly active, That is why the first step in the treatment is the new, nau aealess calomel tablet called Calotabs, which are free from the sickening; and weakening; effects of the old style calomel. Doctors also point out the fact that an active liver may go a long; way towards preventing influenza and is one of the mo.t important factors in enabling; the patient to successfully withstand art attack and ward off pneumonia. One Calotab on the tongue at bed time, with a swallow of water that's all. No salts, no nausea nor the slight est interference with your eating, pleasure or work. Next morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is purified, and you are feeling fine, with a hearty appetite for breakfast. Druggists sell Calotabs only in original sealed packages, price thirty-five cents. Your money will be cheerfully refunded if you do not find them delightful. Adv. L, M. Penwell. President.
