'it- ate The Evening Newspaper of Kansas HOME EDITION TOPEKA, KANSAS, SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 25, 1921 SIXTEEN PAGES FIVE CENTS SHOWERS SAMUEL GOIPERS AGAIN ADE CHIEF OF U.S. LABOR Elected President of American Federation by Delegates at Denver, Gaining Heavy Majority Over President Lewis of Miners' Union.
RAILWAY UNIONS SPLIT ON BALLOT Miners Failed to Give Their Chief Expected Support. Machinists and Carpenters Only Solid Votes for Lewis. OVATION FOR 'GRAND OLD MAN' Soon After Balloting Started Result Was Indicated. Official Count, Gompers, 25,022; Lewis, 12,324. Denver, Colo., June 25. Samuel L. Gompers was re-elected president of the American Federation of Labor to day. The veteran American labor leader defeated John L. Lewis, presi dent of the United Mine Workers, by heavy majority. The official vor.e was, Gompers, 25,022; Lewis, 12,324. The railroad organizaitons, whi-:-h had been claimed almost solid by Lewis supporters, split their votes, the two largest unions the electrical workers and the railway carmen lasting their entire vote to Gompers. i Only two of the largest organizations i east a solid vote for Lewis the Ma- chiniste' union and the United Broth- j ernood or Carpenters. The miners Selegation split their vote, giving Qompers 1,696 and Lewis 2,132, Pres ident Lewis declining to vote the 533 rotes held. James Duncan -was elected vice president by a practically unanimous vote. One vote was cast against him. The convention adjourned at 12:30 lifter the election of a second vice president, to meet again at 2 p. m., and to remain in continuous session until tta work Is completed. Sentiment Too Strong. Lewis was unable to overcome the handicap of the strong sentimental hold which Gompers obtained on the labor movement by nearly .two score fears of administration. The vote was taken amid dramatic Jcenes in the auditorium. The gal leries were packed with supporters of both factions. The floor of the con vention hall was crowded with spec tators. Delegates applauded every (rote as It was announced. It was the first time that Gompers has been strenuously opposed since 1894, when he' was defeated for the presidency by another miner. Gompers won the position back the next .year, however. Gompers'? triumph was an endorse ment by representatives of organized labor of America of his administra tion, and approval of his slow moving, cautious methods, in preference to the swift, spectacular driving methods of Lewis. Ovation for Gompers. Gompers was given a tremendous ovation as the vote was announced. The 71-year-old labor- leader could carcely control his emotions. As dele gation after delegation cast its ballot tor the "grand old man of labor,'- it was easily seen by delegates that he would win and they cheered each vote is cast for him. "When the vote was announced, Ihere was a tremendous cheer from the floor and delegates called for 3ompers. "With tears in his eyes, he itood up to start his speech. He said: "Whatever favor has come to me in previous elections. I took it simply as ft call to duty.. There was Uttle if any gratification irt it. The source of my gratification is not in the fact that I defeated Delegate Lewis. "The source of gratification to me In this case comes from the fact that ft newspaper mud-slinging machine cannot control the American labor movement. "My election will bring no comfort lo Gary or to Hearst. The voice of labor will interpret and present as I can, come what may. I speak In no minor key, whether it be to a Gary, ft president, or any or all of the news papers." When Gompers had completed his speech. Lewis rose to his place in the rear of the hall. Lewis said there was no 111 feeling or rancor in his mind. Active In War Work. The history of Samuel Gompers is largely a history of organized labor. Since 1881, with the exception of one term, he has been president of the American Federation of Labor, which he was largely instrumental in organ izing. Friends of the labor leader say he Is the most active man in the United States despite his 71 years. He trav eled an average of 100 miles a day during 1920. one trip being made by airplane to keep an engagement. Hardly a meal Is eaten without a conference going on simultaneously, and at times he has dictated state ments as he ate. During the past year he has written four books and fifty pamphlets. Another book is In the hands of his publishers. Thruout the war he was active in preventing strikes and assuring labor co-operation in war work. Twice he visited Europe making speeches in be half of the war and participating in the peace conference. The slogan, "No peace without victory," Is credited to Mr. Gompers. He was chairman of the tebor committee of the national council of defense during the war, president of the American alliance for 3 si. A I i Samuel Gompcra. HOW THEY VOTED Denver, June 25.

Columbus All Wrought Up But Not Over Howat Trial Citizens Are in Frenzy of Excitement Over Changed Date Jor Weekly Band Concert City Officials Will Allow No Big Labor Demonstrations. Columbus, Kan., June 25. The trial' of Alexander Howat and August Dor chy, Kansas Miners' union officials, for criminal violation of the industrial court law in calling a strike, is now only 3. few hours away. Columbus is much wrought up. "Rut it. is not over the enminer trial I labor unions for a demonstration in favor of Howat. The question that disturbs the town is whether the week ly band concert shall be given on Sat urday night as in the past or shall be given on some other night of the week. 1 As to the trial and demonstration, Columbus is not worrying at all, not I yet. In outside newspaper reports j Columbus has read about big demon I stration and that is about all that Col 1 umbus knows about it. v I Is" o request has been made, of the New Rural Best Booms. The1 "door seen 'at the end of the room opens into a small dressing room, which contains a cupboard supplied with a plswtif ul supply" of "teacups, saucers, tumblers and plates. The bottom picture shows the little bedroom of irregular shape, that was built on to the east side of the big room. This little room contains two single Iron beds for adults, and two others with railings, for small chil dren. There is a large electric fan in the room. Due to Mrs. Kiene's Efforts.
Wives and children of Shawnee county farmers are chiefly indebted for these rooms, to Mrs. Ray Kiene, demonstration agent of the Shawnee county farm bureau, as it .was thru her untiring efforts that the project was carried thru. The establishment of these rooms makes a shopping Journey, to the city a genuine pleasure for the tired, hard worked woman of the surrounding country. She leaves her baby or small child to the kind care' of Miss Krig baum while she is visiting the stores. Then when the business is accom plished she returns to the rest room, and then takes a rest in an easy chair or. a nap in the little bedroom. The day has been a pleasure instead of a horror. The Topeka rural rest rooms are to be widely advertised on the large bill boards that the Topeka Merchants' association will erect over north eastern Kansas. TODAY IN CONGRESS In the Senate.

State Secretary Says Enormous Crowd Will Be There. WORD GOES TO 800 LOCALS To Hear Charges Against Head of Miners' Union. Presiding Judge of Industrial Court Called as Witness. Responses from the call sent out by W. E. Freeman, president of the Kan sas State Federation of Labor, for a rally of union men from all parts of the state at Columbus, Kan.,, next Monday, indicate there will be an enormous erowd there, W. M. Howe, state secretary, reports. The event is to be a tribute to -Alexander Howat and August Dorchy, president and vice president of the Kansas miners, who are to be placed on trial at Co-! lumbus, Monday, on the charge of vio-1 lating the state industrial court law by calling a strike of miners in Cher okee county. Call to 809 Locals. The call went out to about 800 lo cals in the state, and responses indi cate that many of them will send del egations." said Secretary Howe. "As to the exact number that plan to go, we have no way of telling at this time. A committee of Cherokee and Craw ford county men have charge of the preparations and are making adequate plans for entertaining the crowd, it being conceded that only compara tively a few will be able to attend the trial because of the limited capacity of the court room, A feature of the day's program will be a barbecue." Miners' union officials have an nounced intentions to carry out the custom of calling a holiday in the coal fields on Monday, it being customary to lay off when a union official is on trial. Thousands of the miners are expected to go to Columbus. There are approximately 12,000 at work in the southeast Kansas field. Judge Huggins to Testify. There is considerable speculation on part of the state officials named on the list of witnesses given out by the legal department of the Miners' union at Pittsburg as to what they will be expected to testify. The two miners officials are to be tried under a pro vision of the industrial court, and heading the list of witnesses named by the miners' attorneys is Judge -W. L. Huggins of the industrial -eourU "Haven't the slightest idea why Howat wants me as a witness,"- sai Judge Huggins. Unless other Judges of the industrial court are subpoenaed Judge Huggins will be the only, rep -representative of the court at the trial. Connection other state of ficials on the list of witnesses named by the defense have had with former Howat prosecutions and the enactment of the industrial court pre sumably explains why they are want ed. Justice Burch of .the stipr-me court wrote the recent decision, af firming the sentence of a year .in jail given Howat and five other miners' union officials. W. P. Lambertson of Fairview, former speaker of the Kan sas house of representatives; J. R. Anspaugh of Topeka and .Burlington, secretary of the Kansas State Bank ers 'association- F. G. Bergen of Man hattan, A. o. Delaney of Leona, and J. W. Montee of Fort Scott and Girard, all were members of the special ses sion of the legislature which enacted the industrial court law in 1920. Mon tee and Delaney in the senate voted against the measure. Freeman To Return. President W. E. Freeman, of the state federation, is in Denver at the national federation, and is expected to return tomorrow. As most of the communications from local unions pertaining to the Columbus rally, have been addressed to him. and his mail has been forwarded to Denver, it is impossible to estimate the number of unionmen who will join the Columbus pilgrimage, Secretary Howe explained. The Topeka Industrial Council did not take any action on the call. This is one of the largest local union organ izations in the state. Officials said members could scarce afford the trip and the loss of wages it would involve, at this time, and will remain at work. As to making Monday a holiday, the opinion was expressed that reports in dicate few locals besides the miners will order members who do not go to Columbus, to quit work. TANK POLO TEAM WINS. Take Exhibition Game From British Team, 13 to 5. Hurlingham, June 25. The Amer ican polo team defeated the Hurling ham four in an exhibition game here today by 13 goals to 5.

The hotel will be leased on a basis which will bring the equivalent of a 9 per cent return to the holders of the preferred stock; that Is, C per' cent with taxes paid. It will bring thousands .of dollars to the city. The two new hotels in Des Moines made possible the enter tainment of conventions, two of which alone brought to that city more than $5,000,000. With proper management the orig inal investment will be refunded in due time, and Topeka will have its hotel and its money back. It will remove a standing reproach from the Capital City of Kansas. It will give us $600,000 of good ad vertising to replace a million damns. It's one good investment for every citizen of Topeka. What are we waiting for? Let's go! TRAIN IS SEIZED Two Hundred Men Com mandeer Bides to Kansas. Gulf Dock Strikers on Way to Harvest Fields. Pittsburg. Kan., June 25, Two hun dred men, many of them said to be striking dock workers from gulf ports, captured a Kansas City Southern I freight train at Watts, Okla., last night. Efforts bv the crew to get the men to leave the train were futile. When the train reached Pittsburg at 1 o'clock this morning George Prell, a special agent for the railroad, and members of the Pittsburg police force,' asked the men to leave the train. Only two or three of the men resisted. Some of the men said they were on the way to the Kansas harvest fields. The men spent the rest or the nignt in Pittsburg and this morning were given breakfast by the Salvation Army and by1 a hastily formed organization of citizens. During the day tne men left the city, except a few who re mained. Officials of the Kansas City South ern said that the roadbed was soft from recent rains and the addition of 200 men to the train increased the possibility of an accident. In the event of such an accident, it was point ed out, the company would be liable for damages unless an effort had been made to get the men off the train. When the train pulled into. Pitts- Burg men were hanging on to cattle cars and clinging to the ends of other cars. GASOLINE PRICES REDUCED Drop of Two Cents Per Gallon Be comes Effective Today.

QUESTION ORDER OF COURT Attack on Industrial Court Made by Packing Company Attorney. Constitutionality of the state indus trial court law as well as reasonable ness of the court's order in the Wolff Packing company wage case was questioned before the supreme court today. The attack on the industrial court act is made by D. R. Hite, as attorney for the company, in answer to the industrial court s application for a peremptory writ of mandamus to compel enforcement of its decree. The. Wolff company recently asked for an alternative writ to compel the industrial court to suspend Its order. The industrial court then sought a per emptory writ to force the packing company to obey the writ. The su preme court issued an alternative writ in the form of a peremptory writ and will later determine whether a com missioner will be appointed to take tes timony in the case. The Hite answer filed today raises many of the ques tions presented in a brief recently filed with the court by Col. John S. Dean of Topeka BANDITS STIR UP WAR.

The Ulffers statement today is an open declaration of war and a dA'fia"1 announcement by the Bell company's Kansas -manager that the corpora tion will fight. In a formal statement today Ulffers said: s. "The statement in the opinion -knurled down by Clyde Iteed of the Kansas viiU utilities commission yesterday at ToH-ka, in which he charges bail faith on the liart of the Telephone company anil perjury" on the part of some of its employes. Is absolutely fnlae. "We realir that ordinarily a corporation and especially a utilities company always gets the worst of it in an open controversy with a public official. However, the charitcs made by Mr. Kced are ao ecrlons thnt we cannot afford, for the protection of our selves and our employes, to allow them to stand unchallenged. AH we care to aay is that Mr. Keed will have the chance to prove Jurisdiction. "The nation-wide policy of the Hell com pany is to be frank, open and honcet lit every statement and moat aaanrcilly our action was not different in this instance. In all our canes before courts and com missions In the hletory of the company, we were never before chara-ed with bad faith, let alone the more serious charge of pcr--Jiiry. "It is somewhat slpnlflcnnt thnt in these same cases., which had been pending before the commission for s long time without a declalon and which were recently presented by us to the district court, It was so evident the commfaalou was playing politic the court considered it Its duty to give the company relief and enjoined the commis sion from Interfering with the rate that we proposed to put in. Evidently this has gotten under the skin of Mr. Iteed." VOCAL MUSIC AT FORUM Sextette to Sing at Special Session at Noon Monday.

Despite bullish crop conditions, the wheat; market this week ha shown considerable depression, in fluenced, largely by the action of stocks and cotton. Compared with a week ago, wheat prl.es this morning were c to lc lower; corn off 2c to 3c, snd oats down c to c Provisions scored gains of 10c to 27c. Wheat proved unusually sensitive to un settling effects from breaks in the value of securities and in cotton prices. Confi dence on the part of wheat buyers failed, therefore, to develop any lasting robust quality, altho responding ha a spasmodic way to advices of drought and heat dam age In the northwest end to increasingly seriously reports concerning peril from black rust Rains in the soutb.west delay ing the winter wheat harvest were also largely ignored,, as well as disappointing figures on yield together with drought talk from France and Russia. -On the oth er hand, bears made much of the slowness of export business except as to long credit transactions with Germany. The dominat ing influence in the pit. however, appeared to be the fact that traders were keeping an eye mainly on downward swings ot the stock market Weakness hi corn and oats wss associat ed with trouble carriers were having to get sufficient storage room here for corn which had been bought indications of some export call helped give firmness to provisions.

The cattle market this week showed some firm spots and doubtless would have re corded a general advauce here had eastern markets not declined sharply. Local re ceipts were light, but eastern markets had more than they could handle. Best cattle here were steady to 25 cents lower, and the plainer kinds off 25 to 40 cents. Hog prices passed the 8 cent hill, and made the highest average of the past three weeks. Lambs gained about $2.00, but lost some of the advance before the close.

BEEF CATTLE. Cattle prices tlis week closed steady to 40 cents lower. The most decline was In 'the common to fair short fed and grass fat steers. Prime handy weight and best heavy steers were steady to 15 cents lower. Re ceipts of fed cattle here are diminishing, and doubtless there would have been an auvuuce uao. not reeoers ouncbed offerings in Chicago and caused a sharp decline there. The best Steers this week sold at $8.00 and $8.65. Colorado and western Ne braska steers sold mostly at $8.00 to $8.25. The first Kansas grass steers brought $7.35, and southwest grassers, some of them "caked," brought $5.25 to $7.25.

Prices for thin cattle broke 25 to 40 cents and at the lower level the market afforded some real bargains. Common stockers sold as low as $4.00 and the better classes at $0.50 to !6.50. Selected fleshy feeders sold up to $7.50, but most of the thin feeding steers brought $5.50 to $675. Stock cows sold at $250 to $4.00, and stock heifers $3.25 to $5.00. HOGS.

The net gain fcSr the week was 45 to 60 cents. The top price today was $8.60, and bulk of sales, $8.25 to $a55. Both packers and shippers are buying freely and receipts are falling short of re quirements. SHEEP AND LAMBS. Lambs rose $2.00 and sheep 25 cents early in the week.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 25, 1921 HO FREIGHT CUT Bepresentatires of Seven Kail roads Meet With Got. Allen. Offer Only Sympathy to Kansas Wheat Growers. SHOW INTEREST IN THE PLAN Suggest That Rate Problem Be Handled by I. C. C. Leave In Afternoon, After Pleasant Visit to Topeka. There win be no freight rate reduc tions Just now. Representatives of seven big Kansas railroads came to Topeka Friday to listen to the sorrow sons of the farm ers as sung by Governor Allen and Clydo M. Reed, chairman of the pub lic utilities commission. When the afternoon -trains were leaving; for Chi cago and St. Louis, it became appar ent that the railroad heads had done a bit of singing themselves. No Voluntary Reduction. The meeting was called to recite the woes of the man with a riding plow and his need of lower freight rates. During the meeting transporta tion officials had quite a bit to say about the labor and industrial prob lems, finance and credits. They not only went home without promising a voluntary reduction in rates on wheat, but they left a broad and general in timation that any campaign for relief might be broadened to cover their own business. There were numerous officials of the principal railroads in the confer ence. They listened to statements by the governor and the ultilities com mission bead regarding price slumps on almost everything except freight hauls. They heard the story of long days of perspiration and toil on the farm and troubled sleepless nights when the grain prices went down, but prices of things the farmers bought stayed up. The governor and Reed were loaded with statistics and com parisons on the cost of everything from pig iron to a night's rest in a Broadway hotol. Always the farmer got the worst of It. But here was the one chance to do some missionary work in his behalf. Would the rail roads voluntarily take a bit of slack out of the wheat rates? They Were Sympathetic. Rail repreresentatives. tho, had ap parently held a little gloom meeting of their own. They were broadly sym pathetic with the farm situation. It is bad. There was no tendency to deny it. In fact there was a unanimous sentiment to pass resolutions in their behalf. But the governor and Reed doubted seriously whether the wheat growers could negotiate the resolutions at the bank. Then the transportation men told a little more of their own troubles. Thus they spent the afternoon. It was a fine setting for a day of clouds and gloom Friday is unlucky anyway and intermittent showers knocked out all chances of golf? The governor had shown a broad, brotherly feeling. He didn't receive the railroad repre sentatives in his office. There was far more warmth and consideration than is shown in the average conference. Something of the personal touch was added and the visitors were given a big luncheon in Governor Allen's home. That was the scene of the aft ernoon discussion. Interested In Plan. When evening oame the railroad men hastened to reassure Governor Allen that they were keenly interested in his plan, that it was a worthy ef fort and that any move to relieve the farmers would meet their earnest ap probation. They also urged him to maintain a watchful lookout for any opportunity to do a little good for the railroad business. They thanked the governor ai.d Mrs. Allen for the ex cellent luncheon and once or twice offered to discuss future governorship prospects with Chairman Reed. Then, as they sorrowfully departed, they suggested that perhaps after all the rate problem should be handled thru the interstate commerce commission. Officials who attended the confer ence to discuss wheat freight rates were: For the Santa Fe: W. B. Storey, Chicago, president; F. H. Houghton, Chicago, freight traffic manager: J. R. Koontz, Topeka, as sistant traffic manager. For the Frisco: J. M. Kurn, St. Louis, presi dent; A. Hilton, St. Louis, vice presi dent In charge of traffic. Rock Is land: 8. H. Johnson, Chicago, vice president and freight traffic manager. Missouri Pacific: W. A. Ramback, St. Louis, freight traffic manager. Union Pacific: Frank W. Robinson, Omaha, freight traffic manager. Burlington: H. H. Holcomb, Chicago, freight traffic manager. Missouri, Kansas Texas, George T. Atkins, St. Louis, freight traffic manager. BRITISH STRIKERS IN PAULEY.

The North Topeka Civic club will hold its regular meeting Tuesday evening at the community house. When a North Side business man was asked to buy tickets for the Chau tauqua to be held in August at Gar field park, he asked' what form of en tertainment would be given. It was explained that the program would be varied to suit all tastes, and as a special inducement the ticket seller mentioned that Judge Landis would lecture. "Urnm," said the man, seem ingly not impressed. "Well, I'll take a ticket and give it to my wife. I don't care for lectures, I get enough of that sort of entertainment at home." Fishing bait Is unusually scarce tnis season, according to Charles Stew art, vice-president of the Kaw Valley National bank, who has Just returned from a fishing trip to Mill creek. Where heretofore a quart of minnows were caught in the trap In a short time, only a few were trapped in the same length of time this season, Ste wart said. A. V. Lindell, cashier of the bank, had a similar story to tell, only his concerned fish worms. When Lindell went fishing one day recently at Daylesford, he dug bait for two hours before starting, and only got eighteen worms. "But," he added tri umphantly, "I caught forty-three fish." He explained that he carefully carved each worm, baiting with only a portion. His audience not being as gullible as the fish, would not swallow this story, and he was forced to ad mit that he had dug additional worms to the number of twenty-four. Notes and Personals.

Nine Cities Badly Needing 5,000 Men at Once. Manhattan, Kan., June 25. That the harvest hand scarcity in Kansas is not abated. Is the declaration of Ralph Snyder of Oskaloosa. president of the Kansas Farm Bureau, in a statement issued today. Mr. Snyder declares that there Is just as much need for extra help In the Kansas fields as there ever was. His statement Is as fellows: "Stories sent out recently from Kan sas City to the effect that the harvest hand situation Is clearing seem to have little foundation of fact. Calls for hands today run into the thousands. Nine cities are calling for 5,000 men) today and it is estimated that at least zo.ooo men are neeaea tnruoui iuo wheat belt. These calls Include Dodge City, 1,200: Jetmore, 600; Larned. 800; Liberal, 1,000; Meade, 600; Kins ley, 300; Ness City,. 300; La Crosse, 500; Salina, 500. "Word from E. L. Rhoades. in charge of the harvest labor distribu tion office at Hutchinson, says that the call for hands at the present time is urgent. Only in the southern part of the state is there any relief, he says. "Mr. Rhoades reports that harvest has only started north of the main line of the .Union Pacific, and that from Salina on west there is already a shortage which is expected to be serious when harvest is in full swing next week. The points placing the largest calls today are from southwest "Mr. Rhoades says the news Items, stating that the situation is clearing, are keeping hands from coming into Kansas and are likely to cause a se vere shortage of men thruout the northwest quarter of the state. "Kansas State Farm Bureau has been called upon to lend Its efforts to the campaign to get men Into those sections of the state where harvest is just starting. Would you be kind enough to use a story based on this letter in order to keep the impression from going out that there are plenty of men here to handle the crops?"

EVEN SOLDIERS PUT OFF Adjusted Compensation for Vet erans Will Be Delayed. Settlement of Allied Debts Must Come First. Washington. June 5. The legisla tive record of the special session of congress is now in the balance, con' gressmen admitted today.' The fate tion is uncertain and unless a change of sentiment occurs, more wrangling and new delays will develop, it was in dicated. The special session was called for the main -purpose of declaring peace with Germany and of revising the rev enuw end tariff laws. Altho the per- manent tariff bill probably will be completed by the house ways and means committee next week, there la a growing demand in the senate that this measure be shunted and the new taxes passed thru congress. This, however, is causing a serious dispute between the two houses. "I, am unalterably opposed to this plan," Chairman Fordney of the house ways and means committee, said today. "Nearly three months have been de voted to the framing of the tariff bill and it would be a big mistake to cast it aside now. ,1 feel sure such action. win not be taken." i Bonus Bill Must Walt. Unexpected obstacles to the vet', erans' adjusted compensation bill have arisen which senate leaders declared today may delay passage of the meas ure for several months. Republican leaders were reticent IS discussing the change In the legisla tive program. Several senators simply said it was deemed unwise to push the legislation at this time. Settlement of the refunding of the allied war debts to the country Is said to be one of the obstacles In the way of the so-called bonus bill. It is expected by Senator McCum ber of North Dakota, who is handling the bill in the senate, and other advo cates, that funds for paying the vet- erans compensation which would no. begin until after July, 1922. would b derived from interest on the foreign loan. The unexpected attack of Senator Borah on the bonus bill Is also said to Iiava anm. kwn. am 4k. Y. 4n plans. If the bill were pressed at this time, leaders fear that continued at tack might do much to make the leg islation unpopular with the country. -While the president has taken no definite position on the legislation, he is said to favor the plan of compen- Threc Big Bills Vp. It is generally admitted that the tariff bill will not reach the senate be fore August 1. Then Chairman Pen rose, Pennsylvania, proposes to con sider it In the finance committee for two months, he has stated. The houss will not consider a revenue bill until after the tariff Is passed, and with. uviiLijiueu uul wetLuier, me ueultna tor a recess Is growing. Final agreement may come next week on three Important measures which have been in dispute for many weeks. These are the peace resolu tions and the army and navy appro-; priation bills.

Dear Grace: Tou know each week since you have been in New York I have been writing a letter to Eliza beth, but she has forgotten so many ot tke home folks, and you haven't, that I'm going to write my letters to you after this. When you were So ciety reporter on the other paper here, we had such good times talking over things, we might as well continue. ou remember, the wedding of the popular Topeka girl and the newspa per man, which took place last sum mer and they are now living In New York or Brooklyn, I've forgotten which. Well, the sorority garter she wore was used a week ago by a bride who informs me that several more of the sisterhood are to borrow it before long, so we society reporters are to have a few weddings to write up after a while. We do not seem to have had as many elaborate weddings this year as we had last season, guess the girls have all been as economical as one little Topeka bride, married a short time ago. and who is now living in Kansas City. She wouldn't even per mit her fiance to plan a wedding trip, but took the money they would have spent and used it in furnishing their apartment. One of our Washburn girls has gone east for a visit and she is going to have a wonderful time. She Is to meet two of her brothers who are naval of ficers, and you know if you have a brother who is an officer in the navy, that means becoming acquainted with scads of other good looking men in uniform.. Then she has a sister-in-law, who Is a famous actress and who Is to entertain her, and besides that another brother will arrive home from England while she Is there with his TWENTY YEARS AGO Loohing Backward in Society Columns of The Stat Journal Jane ts. 1S0L. Mrs. A A Scott and danstater Dorothy returned Monday from a visit in Omaha. Mr. Scott spent Sunday there and accoin- pamea tnem Dome. Miss Lottie Collins will leave Wednes day for taer bome in Pueblo after several weeks' visit in Topeka with the Misses Mead. Miss Bessie Mead will acccompany ner Home xor a visit. A charmlriff but informal affair was the arty given Monday evening by Rev. and ra. Charles M. Sheldon at their pretty home on West Fifteenth street. The rooms were tastefully decorated with cut flowers. the dining room where the refreshments were se-rved betae esDeciallv Drettv in sweet peas. The table was covered with a aamasK. ciota sua in tee center was a low oval mound of sweet peas. Mr. and Mrs. Sheldon received their quests in the recep tion hall where a aweet toned music box played tlnrlng the evening. One of the most attractive spots was the porch which was comfortably furnished for the occasion. At one end was a punch bowl where Mrs. v. u. v mciemors ana airs, a. ai( fiyae served durina- the evening. Mrs. Frank Merriam assisted in entertaining. Mr. T. F. Doran who has been sick with erysipelas Is able to be out. State Printer W. T. Moriran visited Klbert Hubbard while he was in New York recently. He Is an admirer of the famous Philistine. Mr. Georre A. Russell of MinneaDolls. Minn., and Miss Ada Strawn of Topeka were married at the btn of Mr. and Mrs. John Ostrandder in Seattle, Wash., Wednes day evenings new English bride. I'm afraid Topeka will have no charms for her when she arrives homes. Absolutely, Grace, if you were-here now and were trying to find some news for your colm, you would have to follow around the golfers, out on the Country club links, for the women who usually have a party or two to enliven the summer are out playing golf. Not all of them are playing, but tney are all learning. One girl who is home from an eastern college gave her sticks to her sister in New York before leaving. Last summer she just couldn't drag anyone out to the links with her and this summer she's the only girl In her set not playing. And speaking about golfing brings us to the subject of golfing clothes. A few of the players drag out their old est suits and don them when they go out, others go out all frilled up and some of Them are going to be real sensible and wear knickers. One of the girls of the younger set appeared Tuesday in knickers and everyone said she was certainly the cutest looking little person. One of the older women has ordered a pair and another en thusiastic woman is having a whole golfing costume made. What do you Know about it, someone said that be cause everyone spread their picnic suppers out and ate together at the club, you know they are repairing the club house and right in the middle of the season, too, that everyone was getting democratic. But you know, and I know Grace that democracy in a Country club will never do, it wouldn't be a Country club, and we society reporters wouldn't tear around hunting news about what was going on at tne cluo lr it was such. You remember Florence Hayden, the clever society reporter who used to write this colm, well she has been so downhearted lately about her golf score, and everyone says she has the most mournful, woe begone counte- nance and Instead' of anyone asking her how she Is any more, they ask her how her golf Is, and she usually replies in a dismal tone, "Oh, I'm so low." Someone said the other day that Mrs. Hayden was just dreading the day to come when we would begin to reprint in the Twenty Year Ago colm what she had written. It's mighty Interesting reading. You re member the wedding she wrote and gave all the harrowing details about how the bridegroom was hidden down stairs behind a screen and heard all the comments made by the guests as they came in, and about how at one of the old Helanthus club dances, there was not a wall flower in evi dence for all the girls were In the cloakroom, trying on a new cloak be longing to Mrs. Chauncey Dewey. Speaking about twenty years ago, a woman called the other day and asked me if when I came to a children's party given twenty years ago next month. If I would kindly omit the age of the child then, the child being the Topeka society woman now. Surely is funny, perhaps some of the children of today will feel the same way about their ages, twenty years from now. FRANCES. A Washburn boy who is havinovthe time or his lire in tne east, seems to be somewhat shocked by the New York style of women's wearing apparel, and has written a letter to his mother tell ing her all about it. The letter begins: "Gosh, there are all kinds, sizes, shapes and complex ions on the streets here. I've begun to think they are doing away with skirts. As nearly as I can remember when I left home a month ago, the girls were wearing them clear to their knees, but here it is worse than that. And they paint, some of them with a Cubist finish and others look almost human when they get thru. The women I see in the hotels have it on as thick as those I see on the streets. I came across a party of 'old hens' smoking in a cafe the other day. Of course I sup pose all their children were grown, but then I couldn't help think of the bad effect on me. The Christian Endeavor socictv and the Boys' Square Deal club of the West Side Christian church will have a lawn social next Tuesday evening, June 28, on the church lawn.

New York, June 25. -Just now the New York papers are full of stories ot the iniquity of Greenwich Village. It may be iniquitous, but it has a cer tain allurement. There is an Informality about the village which is in decided contrast to the coldness ot Fifth Avenue and Riverside Drive. Maybe when a woman begins to take on the middle age spread, it pleases her to be called "Dear Child". They do that sort of thing in the village.

I went Into Sonia's place the other day and frankly told her I had read and heard so much, about her that I wanted a close-up. I found her suave, pleasant and courteous. I did not get below the surface. I'm going back to find the real woman. She may be what they say a radical, and her place a hang out tor Reds. If I could only make her see that in America we have all of the equality and freedom we need, and that we have the best government In the world, and the most beautiful flag which was ever unfurled to the breeze! Greenwich Village has been smart enough to commercialize Its Bohe mianism. The place reeks with queer art shops charging outrageous prices, and with crazy sounding taverns and Inns, where the cost, in some instances, is prohibitive. Atmosphere. comes high, in the Village. Tet there are some places where they serve very good table d'hote meals for reasonable prices. One thing you observe in all these places every village inn has its cat, and in some of them, where the wait resses are not busy, they are carrying the cats about in their arms.

They say that at The Pirate's Den, which Is In a cellar. It Is clammy, and cold, and rruesome, and that the waiters wear pirate costumes and car ry knives in their teeth.

LIGHT IN SCHOOL ROOM Journal of American Medical As sociation Tells of Proper Light ing Ajrsmgenaent for School Buildings Skylight Is Ideal, But Not Practicable. The Journal of the American Medi cal association has printed a resume of the report of a joint committee ap pointed by the National Education as sociation and the American Medical association on conservation of vision and lighting in schools. The report finds serious fault with lighting arrangements in most schools. It notes the great advances in the worKing out of the application of artl- iiciai ugm ana the comparative neg lect of the study of using sunlight. The report says that for Indoor see ing the practical problem la to get enough light. The eye evolved large ly for outdoor seeing and the com parative deficiency of light for in door work is enormous. The con struction of the eye and its relative position in the body particularly adant it for looking down at Its work. The easy position is with the work as much below the eye as in front of it. The eye is protected from above by projecting prow and ashes; not so from below. We have all noted how unpleasant it is when light is reflected from below as from snow or water. Light engineers have taken ,note of these conditions in the application of artificial light but the problem is un solved for daylight. The report recommends that school windows should be as high as possible. A skylight would be the ideal window but It is not practicable. The window should go 'as high as the celling, yet the universal practice is to have a foot or two or dead space between the win' dow and the ceiling. Anyshade at the top of the window should be of white. thin and translucent and should be used only to keep out direct sunlight. A dark shade may be used to keen out the glare at eye level If the construc tion ot the windows makes It neces sary. The weakest point In utilising day light, the report insists, is the failure to light the celling whence the light can be diffused in the normal direc tion downward on the scholars' work. This can be done only by reflection. The report condemns the very pre valent practice of admitting light only from one side, the north preferably. and falling over the pupil's left shoulder. Even the newest school rooms are built with blank walla on one side. This waste of the opportu nity to flood the room- with needed light Is Indefensible. Light should come from as many sides as possible. If the windows are high enough, shades properly arranged, walls and ceilings correctly tinted only benefit can come. This report Is an Important con tribution to an Important but neglected phase of industrial as well as school architecture and should be studied by those planning new buildings or re modeling" old ones.

Hobbs, a new member of Shawnee, who has been playing for two weeks, Invited his wife to watch his game recently, and in an un guarded moment of charity asked her if she wouldn't enjoy trying out the game. She consented and in nine holes beat him twelve strokes. Hobbs should read his own newspaper and take a lesson from the "hoof and mouth" column. Shooting a sweet stick with, the aid of a honey bee Is the latest stunt at the Country club. C. L. Parker stood up on No. 8 tee to drive recently. Just at the bottom of his swing he was stung suddenly and at a rather ener getic point by a bee. The sting so startled and electrified him that he pent tht ball far over the green onto the car tracks. "I tried to catch that bee ar.d keep him for a golf pet," Jack Blair said In telling of the Incident, "but Parker didn't even, wait to ee the result of his drive. Ha Just sat down and killed the Insect." Shawnee golfers have until Sunday evening to turn In their qualifying fcores for the mid-summer champion ship. D. W. Studdard leads lo date with an 88.

Last Sunday ha was out and played in a threesome. Tha other two players had baga full of clubs. Judge Atchison had no bag and only one club, a midiron.

The former state champion has a 28 to his credit. Warren Bailey follows with a 29. The complete ringer score to date: l 2 Cause and Cure of a Hook. A hooked ball finda the trouble as much as a slice and a top, and it is much harder to control. A player never knows just how much of a hook to play for while a topped ball goes straight down the fairway and a slice is easily controlled. There are Jve main reasons for .the hook: (1) Dropping the right shoulder too much on the down swing. (2) Using too much right hand, causing the club, head to get in before the hands. (i) Reaching too far for the ball. 4 Too much wrist snap at the impact. 5 Cutting the finish of the swing too short. If your hook is caused by dropping the right shoulder too much you will overcome It by shortening your back swing and playing your stance very open. Too much right hand Is the most common hook cause. In this case you grip much firmer with the left hand and keep the right hand well under the club. In other words, you must use the left arm entirely. If you are reaching too far for the ball it is an easy matter to stand a little closer. It may be necessary to keep changing until you get the proper distance. Stiffen both arms when you hit and you will cure the hook that Is caused by giving too much wrist to the stroke. If you .finish too quickly try and throw the club out more toward the hole and keep both arms stiff when you hit the ball and on the finish. played two rounds at the Country club recently, shooting a 87-38 75 and a 39-40 79. A 75 at the Country club is within 3 of par and is honey-sweet golf. The rains this week have prevented considerable playing on the two To peka courses but the greens and fair ways have been given the benefit of the inconvenience.

Waltho Crowder. a Lawrence young-1 stcr who started his golf as a caddy. A golfer who has been playing only about six weeks decided the other afternoon that he could save a stroke by cutting across the rough over the I Dog's Leg. It cost him four strokes Willis, the Shawnee's old reliable. never-lose-'em caddy, is back on the Job again. His eye is as good as ever and his advice is still such that the best of players might well pay. heed to it. Ed Curry, chairman of the greens committee of Shawnee, hadn't played for a couple of weeks. Saturday he decided .to go out and look over the course. While watching them start off at No. 1 he had great sport guying tne members who complained to him about tne rough being so tall. "Mon, the fairway Is fifty yard's wide, wny snoot in tne rough," said Ed. Sunday Ed got up enough courage, to try it out. He was there before breakfast, and before anyone was around to watch him. He lost five new balls and as many old ones be fore he got to the ninth hole. Monday Ed had the big mowing machine out cutting that "rough" and he was out following the machine around trying to una tne uve new nans. Milt Tabor of Shawnee wears green glasses when h plays golf. They're all right to put on a cow when you feed her shavings to make her think she s getting grass, but green glasses won't make the sand greens green, says) Shawnee Bill. Otis Hungate of Shawnee rets the pearl handled putter for playing from the most hazardous hazard of the 1921 season. A few days ago he drove from No. 9 tee. The ball took a wicked hook, sailed down toward the ditch, curved toward the retaining wall along the roadway and disap peared. After a search on the part of players and caddies the ball was found about three yards up the huge drain pipe beneath the road. Hungate's op ponents declared It was out of bounds and insisted upon a penalty. The Judge dared them to find a clause In the book of rules that would penalize a man for "playing a ball from a sewer." He won his argument and the players stood back to see what course he would take. Hungate didn't hesitate a moment. With his mashfe he approached the opening. Head first he crawled into the pipe. All that could be seen of the lawyer was the bottoms of his shoes. There waa a scraping and clicking inside the metal drain and suddenly a ball came pop ping out of the opening. Slowly It was followed by Hungate. "Playing three," he said as he took his stance. Milton Tabor of Shawnee Is the first Topekan to make a round ex actly corresponding to his ringer score. He started out the other day to change his ringer. He shot every hole as his score stands on the bulle tin board. A. E. Wilson, of Shawnee, while playing with George Stawits recently, took a slice from his ringer score thru long approach to the green. The ball struck Stawitz's ball on the green, bounced into the air and dis appeared in the cup. care of the publishing and printing business. "And for six years he has failed to win a cup. Hereafter I am going to try it myself, Mitchell ad monishes. Albert M. Patten of the Country club tells of an experience at the state tournament in Wichita. He could not enter the tourney, but played Sunday during the qualifying rounds. When Fatten reached one of the short holes with his foursome an out of town two some qualifying for the tournament stood on the tee with him. They in sisted on waiting for Patten and his crowd. Patten's Iron was within two feet of the pin and he holed out a 2. I. saw these golfers looking at me and commenting, but I made every ef fort to accept the two as ordinary," Patten explained. On the next tee Patten got what he admits was the best drive of his golf career. The ball carried 200 yards and rolled another fifty, straight and low. "This two some was still awed," the Topekan stated. "My brassie took me another 200 yards and I was within a yard 'of the pin on my approach. I holed out a birdie 4 and that pair of state tourn ament caliber was watching me close ly. We were all together again on the next tee, but I lost my confidence. I Insisted these admirers of mine go thru and they did. My reputation was made and saved." Golf Chairman Griggs of the Coun try club is making preliminary plans for the annual state invitation tourna ment to be held in Topeka early in September. At least seventy-five players will be accommodated and ev ery effort will be made to provide en tertainment and fast golf for the en tries. Cups, trophies and medals will be available and plenty of flights-will be provided. One of the new features of the tourney will be a senior flight limited to golfers at the age of 6 a years or more. There are scores of veterans over the state who would enter a Kansas tournament if they thought there was a chance for fair competition. Topeka will donate flight for these "grand old men" of golfdom. Topeka sent twenty-five golfers to the state tournament at Wichita and only two brought home slices of bacon. Frank Griggs carried a trophy for the third best medal score and Robert Yates Is, as the old home paper would say, the "jroud possessor" of a razor strop won as a runnerup or a consoia lion flight. The Topeka hopefuls who attended the state tournament are full of true sDortsmanshin and refuse to offer alibis for their failure to keep the cup in the caDital city. They prefer to tell of the hospitality of the Wichita Country club and the class of golf shown at the tourney. But there Is one reason for the rather sad showing. The Wichita course is fast and hard. Topekans who are trained and expert in the pitch shot to the greens and Ballade of the Duffer. Altbo my stance seems not awry. I top my ball from off the tee; I feel I follow thru, yet I Lack the fine sense of harmony; And why it is I cannot see My shots should tangent in the rough. But there they fly; ah, me! ah,' me I -I am a duffer, sure enough! I'd swear I do not lift my eye; I try to swing my brassie free, As I should do, but I descry What gives my heart mnch misery; Then when I ply my stanch mashte I lift but sand. It's truly tough; The answer to it all must be, I am a duffer, sure enough! I slougb and slice a lovely He, And I am stymied by a tree; Alas, there is no alibi When I take four instead of three! My putting is, as all agree, Just simply ragged, rotten stuff; My partner Jeers I fain would flee; I am a duffer, sure enough! ENVOY Golfers, some day before I die Conquer I may each sad rebuff; But now but now I can't deny I am a duffer, sure enough Clinton Scollard In Life. who have perfect control over this sporty feature of the game were help less at Wichita. There the ground is packed and there is no bluegrass turf guarding the greens to hold the pitch. They could not accuetom' themselves to the runup play and many shots were wasted within smelling distance of the cup. But Topeka golfers are not explaining. "We Just didn't have the stuff in our bags," Frank Griggs states. When It is considered that only one 85 qualified in the championship flight of the state tournament this season the class of golf in Kansas is indi cated. There were more golfers in at tendance than at tne average Trans mississippl events and the champion ship flight scores were much lower. Kansas is developing, some mighty sweet sticks in the grand and glorious game. "What waa the matter with your 'game today?" a stranger asked Frank Griggs at the state tournament. "Well, when I got to my ball I found that I didn't have the club," Griggs explained. "Wasn't the club In your bag?" "No." "Why didn't you send your caddy to the clubhouse to get it?" "I did." "Couldn't he find It?" "No." "What kind of a club waa It?" "A crutch." This Is qualifying week for the Country club championship play. Scores may be turned in up to and in cluding Sunday evening. The players will be divided into two, classes, A and Golf Is As Welcome As An Oasis in the Desert; Tantalizing As Mirage Ever Beckoning and Alluring, It Taunts and Maddens It Uncrowns Kings of Finance and Makes Supplicants of Statesmen Causes More Divorces Than Intemper ance, More Separations Than Affinities. A student of the game was once asked, "What Is golf?" While tempo rarily perplexed for a suitable reply and being somewhat of a philosopher he attempted to compile a few defini tions that would at least tell the seeker after nowledge Just what the game ia This is the result of his efforts: Golf Is what Sherman said war was, and What Boss Croker said politics waa A visit to the grave-like for mation behind the home green at Garden City or into one of the Bal tusrol traps will remove any doubt about it. Golf la as welcome as an oasis in the desert, as- tantalizing as a mirage, ever beckoning and allnring. It taunts and maddens; It has its favorites as the gods have: It turns from the eager and showers its largess often in the paths of the careless. The man who can play It regularly and not break a majority of the Ten Commandments is a Christian gentleman. For six years Frank Crane has gone to state vtournaments leaving his part- W. E. Atchison Is again playing at ner, Charlie Mitchell, at home to take than 200 yards and that all hunkers, sand pits and creeks will be banished to a warmer clime. Golf is a freeman's game. Tou can have nothing On your mind and less on your feet. Tou can play IV fast or slow, ill or well. Your mood is tne game's mood. Whatever may be said in the heat of contest will be imme diately expunged by the recording angel. Golf Is probably as ancient as the Garden of Eden. In fact, rumor has it that Eve fell out with Adam be cause he spent too much time putting on the green with cocoanuts for golf balls. It has also been said that the Scotch appropriated the highball and the game of golf from the Irish: that the first golf club was a shllleiian ana that Brian Boru played golf centuries before even the Scottish dialect was invented. Golf has caused more divorces than Intemperance, and more separations than affinities. Xo man can succeed at it without neglecting his business. unnsiuftu tciiuciuau. i Golf is as great a leveler as death. 1 deserting his friends and abandoning It uncrowns kings of finance and makes supplicants of statesmen. Vanity and vexation of spirit vanish before it- When golf was perfected a long step waa taken toward the mil lennium. Golf is the most aggravating, satis fying, seducive royal sport in the world. It is the most democratic -of them all. An emperor can play it no better than a caddie, perhaps not so well. It la as absorbing as the stock market; as willful as pursuit of the thorobred; as uncertain as love; as coy as youth itself. Golf has this advantage over law: Tou are your own judge. Jury and advocate. Tou write your own instructions, fur nish your own witness in the person of a purchasable caddie, assess the damage yourself and If you want a new trial all you have to do is to start once more at the first tee and try It all over again. Golf clears dull brains, gives a fillip to bright ones, eases sorrow, revives old delights and concocts new ones for jaded palates. Turks are promised hnuris hereafter if they are good on this earth. It is to be hoped that on the golf links of the life to come every golf ball will have a good lie on the fair green, that no drive will be less his family. Some players spend half their time dressing and cleaning their clubs and the remainder of the time looking for lost balls. The man who invented golf deserves a monument as broad as the Pyramids and as -high as the Eiffel Tower. It has saved more lives than the doctors; brought health and happiness to thou sands. As a developer of character it has no equal. Golf makes a man patient and en during. It keeps the fires of hope continually- alive. It gives one respect for one's opponent, and even makes an enemy endurable. It Is the clean est, fairest sport in the world. Show me a good golf player and I will show you a clear brained, well balanced, generous, manly fine fellow. Golf was invented by a Scotchman. It Is generally too fast for the Ger mans, too slow for the Irish. The French don't take to it. The Spaniards think It a drink instead of a game. The Americans affect it. The English are born with a sixth golf sense. Be lieving in reincarnation, I hope to re turn to earth in a million years and be a perfect player. (From The Professional Golfer pt America.) B. Class A will Include the low thirty- two scoring players. Class B will take care of all other scorers. Two matches a week will" be played to decide the championship. The finals will be played, late in July. This Is a no handicap event with a medal for the winner. Frank Griggs of the Topeka Coun try club who was elected to the vice presidency of the Kansas State Golf association will leave in a few days to inspect the government post course at Leavenworth in preparation for the plans of the 1922 tournament. As vice president Griggs is In charge of the association until the president and sec retary .are elected by the hostess club. At this date there are only three 18- hole golf courses in Kansas where state tournaments can be played Wichita, Sallna and Leavenworth.. To peka has two 9-hole courses that have been laid out for 18 holes and will be in condition in a short time but no promises could be. made for the 1922 tourney. The Topeka Press club. Is planning a mid-summer sweepstakes to be be gun some time next week. Handicaps will be handled and the spoils will be divided among four winners low medalist and three low handicap win ners. Thar first nine holes will be played on Shawnee and the second nin on the Country club course. L. J. Pettijohn, secretary of state. is having the usual luck of a compara tively new player with a few lessons. I took a course in professional golf the other day," opined the state offi cial, "and now I cannot hit 'em with a ball bat." Two weeks is usually re quired for results in such cases. Will Townsley, editor of the Great Bend Tribune, was in town several days last week. He spent an afternoon at the Shawnee course and registered a 66-68. Townsley is one of those truly thoughtful chaps who always takes his clubs with him. Charles Flanders is a true friend of the Shawnee members. He has re duced the overhead expense of the game by mowing the roughs and In consequence fewer dollar and dollar and a quarter balls are being sown just off the fair ways than at any time this season. Emmett George, secretary to Gov ernor Allen and sensation among the beginners at Shawnee, has established a wholesome respect for Bill Kercher of the Southwestern Bell Telephone company. George "took" Kercher for a round at the Country club Sunday morning. They arranged customary features tending to add zest and inter est to the game. On the eighth hole Kercher politely offered to double spot the governor's secretary one and play it thru. When Kercher came in with a par on the hole, George swore undying hostility to all corporate in terests. George has hit a driving slump after a low score of 61 last week. W. O. Clugston quit the game for an entire week. Tnere was a reason. It was a 60 score on Shawnee. For three days he tried to exchange his clubs, bag and balls' for lead pencils and cancelled postage stamps. These are great days for low scores for the short drive boys on the Shaw nes course. A hard fair way and good turf have been a big boost for the new players who are out for improved ringer scores. Charley Sesslons's criticism of state house golf enthusiasts threatened to discourage timid officials who want to retain their popularity with the folks In the rural districts next year. There Is also a bit of speculation as to Charley's oversight of the evil during recent years. When Charley's boss was in tne governor office ne was one of the real golf bugs of the state house and even now borrows a bit of the government's time to chase the pill on Washington fair waya Malcolm Gray, secretary of the state board of administration and brother-in-law of Governor Allen, is talking, golf in his sleep. He played his first game last week a 68 on the nine holes at Shawnee. Now he is a new member of Shawnee and is trying to absorb all of the golf literature and Information In town. Justice Silas Porter Is ordinarily a very modest man but well his ringer score is something which the supreme court Justice just naturally speaks about with an evidence of pride. He has registered a 82 on the Cpuntry club course. This is the music: 633-425-431. Count 'em 82. He will send a defy to Governor Allen to beat it. Harry Sharp, secretary of the As sociated Industries and a new mem ber at the Country club, borrowed a kit of tools and played his first game the other day. "No wonder they call jthis a rich man's game," said Sharp as ne calculated tne cost or tne after noon's initial outing. Emerson Carey, of Hutchinson, former state senator and a regular at tendant at the state Invitation tour neys in Topeka, is building a 8,000 yard private course on his country es tate five miles northwest of Hutchin son. Carey Is authority for the state ment that it will be the finest watered course in the stateand will be ready for par play this fall. This probably Is the only private golf course in Kan sas. The entire Carey family is golf enthusiastic and they all play a sweet game. The difference between a pro and most amateurs is that a pro plays all the harder when his game goes bad. Not long ago Assistant Pro Howard. of the Country club, started on but not with Howard. He dug his heels into the ground and fought him self until dark and until he had dis covered hia -fault. J In hunting for a lost ball recently Mrs. Ilif Felix discovered a field of daisies in the rough off No. t fairway. Dropping her driver, forgetting her ball, disdainful of golf and Its at tributes she plunged into the flower patch and maiehed back to the club house as proudly as tho she had sunk a 1. When the pipe Is pitted against the cigaret in golf the pipe wins. This explanation for tne defeat or tne American amateurs in the British title tournament was offered recently by a veteran Scotch professional. "The temperament that goes with the pipe will always win over the cigaret of the average young American golfer. Let our boys cultivate the pipe and there will be a different story the next time the Americans cross the water," fit declared. t How many golf players are there in the world? This is not one of the questions be longing to the Edison group nor has it relationship to the How-Old-Is-Ann interrogation. It is a question that John G. Anderson, writing in the cur-: rent issue of the American Goirer, pro pounds and answers. His reply, based upon several years' Investigation, is that there" are ap proximately 1,577,400 golfers in the world who belong to clubs. He esti mates that. In addition, there are some 200,000 more "casuals," he calls them, players who follow the ball around over public courses, making a grand total of 1,777,440 men. women, toys and girls who play the game. Golf has its followers in eignty countries of the world, and the total number of golf courses Is approxi mately 6,2511. The United States leads in clubs and memberships with 2,750 recognized organizations and 825,000 members. Country club golfers are intensely interested In the departure of W. E. Brelsford to the Mayo Brothers hos pital In Rochester, Minn., where he will undergo an operation to benefit his eyesight. Brelsford Is afavorite among Topeka golfers and despite the trouble he is having with his eyed he entered the state tournament at Wichita and made a creditable show ing. Topeka golferdom wishes him well. It was a sad blow to Shawnee to lose the state championship title and an equally disturbing disappointment to the Country club to lose a chance at the title thru the defeat of Hurley. Griggs and Felix. But it is all in the game and the loss will guaran tee a more determined effort at Leavenworth next year. The Country club house improve ments loom up from all parts of the course. The additions give the club a sweeping appearance. Irving Hill, president of the Law rence Country club, Dr. H. T. Jones, Paul Dinsmore and Alfred G. H11L all of Lawrence,- were, Topeka Countrv club guests recently. Irving Hill shot a 44-47 and Dr. Jones a 45-4S. Mr. Hill says Topekans are always wel come on the Lawrence course. The links have been remodeled and water has been piped to the greens making it one of the sportiest playgrounds in the state. Mrs. Dick Hayden has cirt her first hole record from a 42 to an 8. Only a few .weeks ago in her initial game of golf Mrs. Hayden took 42 on No. 1; It established the endurance, physical and mental championship -record at that time. Mrs. Hayden made No. 1 in 8 the other day. She maintains, and all will agree, that If every golfer couia indicate such an improvement In one short season It would be a: grand and glorious wor-r-r-ld. A record for Topeka golf .enthusiasts was established this week when A. L.- Shultx of the Shawnee club cut seven from his ringer score in one day. Youngsters in the neighborhood of the Dr. C. H. Lerrigo residence. 1117 College avenue, have laid out a 4-hoIe. golf course and hold daily touroa-' ments. Discarded clubs of all vintages have been brought Into play and the boys are showing good form. State tournaments may come and state tournaments may go; golfers' may come and golfers may go, but no one in Kansas has yet shown his stance on a golf course to hit out a drive as far as Arthur Bonebrake," a Topeka veteran commented recently. The girls of the younger set are- "adding life and beauty" to the ladies' day tournaments at the Country club.' six ot the junior age were entered Tuesday. In the Tuesday events Mrs. O. T.

GOLF REVEALS CHARACTER If a Man Is a Quitter It Is Bound to Come Out, Says Samuel Rey noldsvjrhamplon. t Omaha, June 25. As a means of revealing a man's true character,' there Is no game like golf. In his opin ion of Samuel Reynolds, of Omaha. four times state and city champion, and holder of the 11T Trans-' Mississippi amateur championship. Chiefly because of the Intense In-' terest the player has in his game hia real character is bound to reveal it-" self while he is at play, Mr. Reynolds said. "If he's a ouitter. or If he's si" sticker It ,1s bound to come out." he saia, aaamg that "nothing of the man's innermost feelings can be heid back while he is on the links." Th- i m U- ...v, in j iuiw vuuiTuueu. puts a man on his mettle as to hia honesty because much of the time h Is out of sight of his opponent and he-, would be able to do a little cheating if he wanted. Mr. Reynolds ventured the opinion, however, that the stand- -ard of integrity In golf Is as high, if. not higher, than In any other sport, or in other walks of life. There are many business and pro-. fessional men who would have been in their graves years ago had it not been for their taking up the game," 1 said Mr. Reynolds. "While It gives the player what he needs for his, physical welfare. It also helps to de-., velop hm mentally because of tba close co-ordination required between i the muscles and the brain." That golf helps to promote a fra- ternal spirit among men, was con tended by Mr. Reynolds. As an illus- tra"tion he cites the business or pro fessional man who is traveling on the railroad train, his bag of golf sticks'! with him, and who is met by a fellow passenger, also a golf player. "One of the two travelers asks the other something about the game, and im mediately they discover they have something In common," Mr. Reynolds said. "From that time on they talk a language of their own and good) fellowship is consequently promoted." The playing of outdoor games, such as baseball, tennis or football help a man's golf onlylnaofar as they make him supple, but there is at least one Indoor game that helps the man who takes up golf, and that Is billiards. In Mr. Reynolds's opinion., "The accuracy which is necessary In order to make the billard ball do what would be helpful to the man who takes up golf," he said.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL SATURDAY EVENING. JUNE 25. 1921 COMING TO THE ORPHEUM WILL USE MASKS Ifew Invention Makes Kew Screen Art Possible. M1 Iff T At the Grand. (By Elizabeth Ann.) Tor a one-week attraction, com lenclng Monday, the Grand, has se cured the film version of "The Servant In the House." The famous story, by Charles Rann Kennedy, in dramatic form was first presented more than a decade ago. and still stands as one of the greatest successes In the history of the American stage. It has been transformed Into a motion picture play .that sets a new high mark in screen presentation. "The Servant in the House," thru the happy combination tf a great story, perfect continuity. Ideal cast and splendid direction, has Jbeen moulded into a really silent nasterpiece. liillll1 Urn' mjrttt Ht It HOLT iH CHtUKLtS IttVtH ITKWiMOrH vromLO Fatuous "rwr sekvhht in rut Housm. nn,H.o.ovis moovcriQH t It is one of the most pretentious ve hicles that has ever been taken from he legitimate stage for screen pro eduction and many of the big minds in he motion picture field doubted that fche transformation could be made. On the screen "The Servant In the tHouse" Is a greater attraction than it Was as a stage play and not a weak ness can be detected. Jack Curtis, Vine of the best known character actors Jn the country, has done the finest vork of his career in the unique and difficult role .of the "Dratnman." j As an added feature, for the first fchree days of next week, the Grand heater has secured the services of flnnn. "the little girl with the big voice." This noted female baritone cams her way to success thruout the pastern cities and has only recently -Invaded the west. No doubt there will "be manv who will remember having Jieard "the little girl with the big K'olcc" during the time she was tour ing the various army camps. Niona lust sings but is SOME singer and Jwlll doubtlessly leave many friends lend admirers at the close of her To jpeka engagement. I At the crystal. I (By "Bill.") "So Long Letty." the film version Jbf the play by Oliver Moroaco. as pro duced by Al Christie and featuring Colleen Moore will open the week's bill at thd Crystal theater Monday. It s signed for a three days' run.. On the legitimate stage "So Long Letty" svas acclaimed from coast to coast as )rme of the successes of several seasons. 9ts film version is receiving almost as Jnuch applause. i i 3 r J ColIcOn Moore. All of the members of the cast are Veally movie stars within their own fright. T. Roy Barnes, Grace J5ar Jmond, Colleen Moore and Walter filers are seen in the four leading roles. Here is an unbeatable com bination. t For the last three days of the week he William Fox production, "Prairie JTrails," will be shown. This is a sihoto dramatization of the novel 'Prairie Flowers" by James B. Hen clryx. In this as in all his appear ance) in western photodrama, Tom (Mix will Introduce some new roping and riding stunts. f At the Orphcum. Prisoners in Sing Sing prison who aw certain scenes of Thomas Meig han'a latest Paramount picture, "The jnity of Silent Men," filmed, admit hat Mr. Meighan's "escape" from the jrison was novel and entertaining. f'The City of Silent Men" will be fhown at the Orpheum theater next week beginning Monday. J Mr. Melghan, as the hero of the fctory. Is sent to prison on circumstan tial evidence and after serving several years he makes his escape. The fugi tive secreted himself in a packing box, was nailed up Inside and rode out on a four-horse truck thru the famous f'South Gate" of the prison. He took Ihe same route that Thomas Murray, a daring crook, took when he escaped, nailed up in a laundry case, on May 27, 1887. Imprisoned old-timers smiled as they looked on. They found the scene Interesting and instructive. Warden Lewis E. Lawes permitted Director Forman to stage the scene at Sing Sing, but was cautious to see that no genuine convict was tempted to depart with the players. The "prisoner" was hidden inside the big packing case inside the prison and then, as the gate was opened to let the truck out, rode to freedom in the case. The truck drove to the Ossin ing freight station, with the camera clicking behind It, and there the "fugitive" got out of the box and made his "getaway" with the camera Dhotographing the feat. The cast is further augmented by Lois Wilson, who plays the leading feminine role, Kate Bruce, Paul Ever ton, Guy Oliver and others. At the Novelty. (By Elizabeth Ann.) Keno. Fables and Wagner in "Toy Fantasies" will doubtlessly be the big1 hit of the program at the Novelty theater for the first three days of next week. "Toy Fantasies" is the title of what can be assuredly called the most unique, novel, original in fact, the only act of its kind, a broad statement but nevertheless a true one. It has wonderfully pretty scenic settings, spectacular lighting effects, quaint characterizations, remarkable trans formations and a talented trio of ar tists who are excellent singers. grace ful dancers and unusually clever pan tomimists. Rottach and Miller in "Bits of Mu sical Comedy," another feature of same bill, is described as a vocal act and promises to be one of more than ordi nary merit. Rottach's wonderful tenor voice blends so perfectly with Miss Miller's soprano as to make the double song numbers ideally harmonizing. And Rottach certainly can yodel! His presentation of the famous Emmet yodels is a splendid exposition of chest and head tones and for an en core he sings an Irish song with such feeling, power and sweetness as to make it stand put as a real gem of vocalism. Powell and Adair, as "Dixie's Popu lar Mimics," offer a splendid exposi tion of the negro character. The pat ter is most mirth provoking, the ac tions thoroly in accord with the de lineation and some eccentric and soft dancing by Adair, who is a highly pleasing exponent of this style of terpsichore, makes the act a decidedly amusing and clever bit of entertain ing. Time and Ward in "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet," offer comedy talk ac companied by some speedy work on a bicycle. Another big time act on next week's first-half program at the Nov elty Is "Hong Kong Mysteries." Dur ing this number Doctor Nixon will present mysteries. Illusions and Orien tat dancing. The fourth episode of "The Diamond Queen" will, as usual, give Eileen Sedgwick further oppor tunity of showing her versatility as an actress in this thrilling serial, photo play which has already won the keen est interest of thWNovelty patrons. Bolbiif&iow :That Eugene O'Brien has ambitions apart from the screen? He wants to play Hamlet and Romeo. Coriway Tearle is married to Adele Rowland, the famous musical comedy prima donna?

THREE WEEKS IN SING SING Thomas Miegban Ieved life of Con vict Making "City of Silent Men." Three weeks in Sing Sing, but It was not a sentence Thomas Mieghan was serving. He was there to fill a contract with Paramount for scenes required in the production, "The City of Silent Men," wh:ch is founded on the John Morosco story, "The Quarry. "It was an interesting experience, said Mieghan after the work was finished, "but it would not have been half so interesting had I not known that when I felt like it I could go out side those walls and know that the a ren would not shriek and the guards come chasing after me." The prison scenes of this picture were made in the New ,iork state .prison by the Mieghan company which had been brought from Holly wood, Cal., for that purpose. After "the Sing Sing stuftf had been shot, the company completed the produc tion in California, where they were laid in the story. During the eastern stay of the company, a short visit was made to New York so that the scene wherein Miqehan. as a convicted mur derer, is taken across the famous "Bridge of Sighs." could be actually taken on that bridge which leads from the Tombs to the criminal court room.

One of the most interesting an nouncements made In some time re garding motion pictures, is the news that masks have made their innova tion before the camera. Not the ordi nary motionless mask, but a pliable mask capable of expressing all the known emotions. They are the inven tion of Alex Hall, prominent artist and sculptor. After many years spent In experi mental tests, the new type of mask was found practicable and Is making its debut in pictures. The possibilities of the new contortionable masks were first realized when Inventor Hall in troduced them in "The Four Horse men of the Apocalypse." They were seen on the allegorical figures of "Con quest," "War," "Pestilence" and "Death," and caused wide comment because 'of their grotesqueness and marvelous power of expression. There were few who were not only puzzled by the hideousness of these masks, but still further mystified when they found these figures capable of moving their faces and expressiong their emotions. Another point of interest In Mr. Hall's creation is the fact that the masks can be made to envelop the entire body with the same degree of success that is obtained in the face mask, thus cpening up an entirely new field in the art of make-up and re production. The enormous scope of which the masks are .capable is evi dent, since no character, living or dead, cannot be duplicated. From an artistic standpoint, they have tremens dous opportunity for introducing novel effects and grotesque figures. With the innovation of masks Mys tic Masque Productions will bring to the screen a famous character Old King Cole and the first of the series of novelties to bear his name. The picture contains a number of novel effects and a great thrill. "Jim the Penman" has written himself into pictures. He wrote himself into tbe penitentiary on the stage.

Jack Dempsey defended his title for the first time last Labor Day against Billy Idiske. He was the same terrible n.auler that .put Willard aside. His punches seemed to have almost su lcrhuman force behind them and, Jdiskft lasted less than three rounds. The challenger had grit aplenty and he knew how to box. He landed di rect wallops against the champion frequently and his quick footwork eluded several punches. Altho forced to be Inactive for a year under the care 01 surgeons, Miske showed him self a much better scrapper than when lie appeared on the eve of the iJemp sey-Willard match and fought Bat' tling Levinsky. But he was no match for the Giant Killer.

Smalley. ..who for several years has conducted an art store in MePherson, Kan., has moved to Kan sas City, Mo., where he will engage in the same business. Smalley has achieved a' more than national repu tation thru his untiring efforts in be half of art In central Kansas, and ms departure will be felt as a great loss in the locality he Is leaving. While m his teens Smalley developed a decided liking for" pictures and Showed cood taste in the choice, and selection thereof.. His father was in the seed business Mn MePherson. and desired his son to follow In the paternal footsteps. The emer smalley could see little use tor art, or chance for its development in a little agricultural town or two or three thousand inhabitants, but a few decades removed from the Indian and buffalo period. He thought the selling of seeds that would resist the drought the grasshopper and the green bug. a mucn more useiui ana appropriate oc cupation lor a young man. The son thought otherwise. He stud led about etchings, engravings and prints end kept himself informed con cerning the leading personages in the world of art. The more he read and studied, the more he liked It. and he resolved that his friends and neigh borg should knof about pictures and like tnem, too. Finally he bought a small stock' of prints and engravings and put them on display i" a corner of his father's store. The unusual spectacle of pic tures other than representations of pumpWns or tomatoes hanging in a seed store, attracted the attention of farmers and townsmen who came in the store to buy peas, beans and seed potatoes. i At first these people were amused, some of them, no doubt, contemptuous, thinking "Old man Smalley better take a stick to that boy of his and beat some sense into his body, if he ever wants mm to bo worth his salt. But here and there, the sight of young Smalley' a pictures stirred long forgotten memories in the breasts of some who stopped to look. The young man's .earnest, enthusiastic, learned talk gradually won respect lor him and sympathy for his mission. People began to realize that they did need pictures in their homes and that Carl J. Smalley could" and would sell them the kind of pictures that they ought to buy. So the "stony ground" thru careful tilling, at last became a fertile field, and the business grew and pros pered. Another factor that-contributed to success was Bethany college at Linds- borg, sixteen miles to the north of MePherson. The culture diffused by this excellent center of learning soon 1 J 1. 1. -n V I. thrown into the water, and culture al-1 ways brings a desire for the better things of life Berger Sandzen, a Scandinavian artist of high ability, came to be professor of art at Bethany college, sandzen finally was brougnt into contact with Smalley, his store and his work, was quick to realize their value to the community, and speedily became Smalley's friend and ally. Largely thru Sandzen, Smalley's work became known all over the west. the United States, and even in Europe, and gained its due meed of respect at home. Today, the spectacle of two little country towns, both founded in the wilderness within the memory of men and women still in the prime of life, both hundreds of miles from a large center of population,' and yet winning the respect of the whole United States as worthy centers of art and music, is almost unique in history. And Carl J. Smalley had very much to do with brinering all of this to pass. It is said that Smalley's collection of etchings is one of the best in the west. Not long ago he received an important write-up in the American Magazine of Art.- n Two or three weeks ago this column contained an article concerning an ef fort being put forth by the Topeka Art Guild to have the present city library building converted into a municipal art gallery in event that the city com mission decides to build a new library building for Topeka. Should tho new library building not be erected or should the Art Guild's efforts fail If it is built, those who desire to see a suitable place provided in the renter ct tile city for holding art exhibitions need not lose hope.

Elie, the Uttlo sinner, laughing all the while. Vanity Pair. YOU have heard of that so-called psychological mo ment? Well, that was when I called at the Crosby Brothers' Store yesterday. A spe cial order of Peg fry Paige dresses had just come in. I am going to try my best to tell you about them, but to realize to the full extent their loveliness, you'll have to see them for yourself. There are ging hams in brown, red, lavender, pink and Mue checked with white ("and now my s t o r y's be gun") they are trimmed with organdie pleatlngs and sashes, with unusual looking flowers, with stunning; braids, and made in pretty styles. The dotted Swiss dresses were all distinctive. I wish I could take the time (and space) to describe every one. There is a black one with red dots, red organdie flowers and sash that is a wonder. A gray Swiss dotted with, white and trimmed with green was a very dis tinctive model. A brown one was trimmed in Irish lace. The organdie dresses are pretty as can be. There are the most unusual tints as well as white embroidered in colored dots, and the fashionable red. These dresses are real values, fresh from the Peggy Paige House. The Crosby Brothers' company will sell them at $19.75. This is a bargain, the regular prices were from $29.50 to $35. IF TOU HAVE a pair of white shoes that need new soles or heels, the Evans Rapid Repair Shop is the, place te take them. This shop has WHITE LEATHER for the repair work on white shoes which is as it should be at repair shops, JRut hasn't been. They also do expert cleaning of all kinds of white shoes, either while you wait, or, you can leave them, and when you return you will find them looking Just os white as when they-were new.

It seems that Mr. 'Birch had planned to play golf in the afternoon with Billy Anderson and the rain can celled the engagement. Whether Mr. Jones was just pleased because he was not to be deprived of Mr. Birch s good compnny, or because he likes to see his friend at work, I really don't know.

But white anust be white, and only cjj?ah gasoline and painstaking work Will make it so. You can, therefore, send your white silk, or wool, sport suits', dresses or skirts to the Topeka Laundry as sured of satisfactory results. The cleaning of dark clothes is of the same standard as for white ones, so in sending your dry cleaning here, you make no mistake. THE leading colors, for fall will be navy, brown, black and Russian green. HOT weather means one thing sure, and that's iced tea. It seems to me that quality is more apparent in iced tea, than when it is served hot. Beside an excel lent flavor, another impor tant feature in making iced tea wholly attractive is a pretty color. Both of these attributes you will find in the Special Iced Tea Blend made at the Grand Union Tea com pany. a TOURING Thomas of ToDeka Is thoroly pleased with the situation. Every year for five years he has taken his vacation overland triDS- and en joyed it enough each time to do it again, Dut tnis trip is the best yet, be cause he is perfectly comfortable. .Before he left Topeka last week, he went to the Topeka Tent Awning Company and invested in numerous camping devices, and wondered why ne naan i clone it before. Storm clouds threatened and Tom chuckled when he saw that there wasn't a house for miles around.

There is wiae range for the choice of a white hat that will go with everything the white satin hats are beautiful, and the ones trimmed with white brush wool are Douna to be becoming. There are ruffly ribbon hats, and ribbon and felt hats in white. There is also a nice line of handmade hats in white silk and baronette satin at Mrs. Brickley's for all kinds of sum mer wear ior only fifteen dollars. f fJl j TOU needn't mind the wind and sun if you are using the "Garden Court uouDie Jom oinatlon Cola Cream. mats lone title, but it's full of meaning. This especial cream takes the place of two creams one for cleansing and one for massage. It has the feeling of a very soothing vanishing cream and will not leave the skin greasy or shiny; it is also an ex cellent foundation for face powder, and has a very delightful fragrance. You wilt be surprised, I know, when you learn that this really remarkable cream is only fifty cents a jar at S tans field's. THERE is every size in electric fans at the Topeka Electric Company. From six to eighteen inches, and very good fans they are too, made by the Western Electric Company. One model is entirely black enam eled, which with the addition of a few bright flowers and a butterfly (and you don't need to be a bona 'fide artist to paint them) would make a decora tive as well as a comfortable accessory to any roqm. FABRIC hats are vogue for summer wear. WHAT man does not like to have a new tie? Here is an opportunity to buy a real one at just about one third of the old prices. There- is a very fine as sortment of all-silk knitted ties at the Felix Clothing Company, and they are ONE DOLLAR each. AN agriculturist who Is capable in times of neces sity of doing any bit of rural handiwork, found one morning thai it was up to him to pail the cows all two of his work jackets were in the weekly suds, so rather than go coatless or don his good, going-to-town clothes, he decided to hunt out a rather dressy, but long since unused garment. Imagine his neighbor's sur prise when, in passing the cow lot, he saw our hero at his morning duties, clad in overalls and a swallow tail coat. HAVE YOU HEARD of Corarra ware? It is glass in -a. the loveliest tints of uTtt- ..kinase blue, orange, yellow, i lavender and green and you'll find it at The Hayes Flower Shop. There are stately vases, low. artis tic bowls, candlesticks and compotes that would be heavenly filled with fruits or an attractive dessert. A piece of this new ware would be charming in any room. If your room is gray, the hangings blue, an orange vase would be perfect on a small ta ble, mantel or in front of a mirror. Of course there are flowers at Hayes's, too fresh from their own greenhouses, and at reasonable prices. HARRY lEND LICH (of The Out look) is showing a very nice line of midsummer milli nery. There is ev erything for imme diate wear, whether you desire a sport hat or a dressy hat. The white ruf fled ribbon hats, and those made of wide grosgrain ribbon in all the sport colors are very attractive and almost unbelievably reasonable. The prices start at $3.95 and don't go very far up. The baronette satin hats are a new note in midsummer millinery and The Outlook has some beauties at from 've to ten dollars. You will find these hats on the sec ond floor, and you will receive there, as elsewhere in the shop, the most courteous attention. IF the wrap la to be of canton creoe. lynx or monkey fur will add wonder fully to style. HAVE YOU bought a summer Vlctrola? If you haven't you certainly ought to be a prospective cus tomer at The Jen kins Music Store. You can buy this conveniently sized macnine eitner in an oak or mahog any case. It is very nice to take music with you on picnics and camping parties, or out on the cool porch, especially when the music is that of the best or chestras and artists in the world. Besides Victrolas and good records. you will find at Jenkins an up-to-the- minute sneet music department. I heard a lot of the new tunes, and se lected four that were simply great. They all have good melodies and are very nicely harmonized "Nestle in Your Daddy's Arms" and "Humming" are both good foxtrots. "Answer" is a very musical thing in ballad style and of all the blues I liked "Wang Wang" the best. You will be pleased with all these numbers, I am sure, and if you want more you will find a good selection at jenKins A FRAME can make, or mar, a pic ture. You may have a very lovely print, but if it is badly framed you have spoiled the effect that it should produce. The right moulding will bring out color, give depth and accent the Deauties of a picture. Mrs. Sullivan is an artist In this line, and not only can show you a very high grade of picture frames, but also give you neipiul advice as to a choice, IN telling about the Viola Beauty Shop Shampoos last week I spoke of the soft wa ter. It isn't only softened water, it's rain water. That is the ideal shampoo, and in spite of the recent showers a imng you'll rarely find at beauty shop. Whv don't vnn trv nn t 916 Kansas avenue?

THERE is a remarkable value ejin summer suits, tai lored to measure, at Mid dleton Haskins. The ma terial is genuine Palm Beach in all colors. You can select the design that is most becoming, and have a suit tailored to fit you for $25., Now you know that's a bargain. Yesterday there were four finished suits waiting for four discrimi nating men, and each suit was dis tinctive in its style and tailoring. EMBROIDERY, it is said, will be a favored trimming for fall frocks. THERE ARE some very in teresting art novelties at Mr. Ralph Pe terson's Gift Shop. The book ends of b r o n s e are beautiful. Some of, them are black enameled and decorated in .tsiuio. I -Kr m.w m The bronze desk seta are til L "li very handsome, especially one that J lnto fha stream' by rerenners.

There are two little lamps Just alike, in ivory decorated with pink and blue, that would be pretty one at each end of a long table or mantel, or as a pair of bedroom lamps. There are also at Peterson's some stunning floor lamps with wrought iron, standards trimmed in gold and most artistic parchment shades. IF you are planning a walk in your garden, there is nothing more charm ing than flagstones. They are not only artistic but very economical. STARTING MONDAY, Thomas Meighan will appear at the Orpheum theater in a Paramount picture called "The City of Silent Men." Any picture featuring Thomas Meig han is worth seeing, and this picture is a wonderful one. Mr. Hooper invited a number of To peka men to a private showing of the picture, and they have given it very good criticisms, two of which I quote. Mr. Charles I. Martin says that "It's one of the really good pictures of the year." Mr. Robert E. Lewis, city edi tor of The State Journal, considers th&t The City of Silent Men' is on a par with 'Les Miserables' for human interest and plot." Mr. Meighamand his company trav eled from Hollywood to New York to make the first part of the picture. The prison scenes are really in Sing Sing, and it is the real "Bridge of Sighs," not Just any bridge. TWO ladies were having luncheon at a country club in a neighboring town, and after the repast was finished the hostess rang "tor the maid and asked that she bring some matches.

Then when you return from your trip Hall's will have your pictures ready for you in ONE DAY. with best of work in de veloping and finishing. Another thing that a vacation means to many of us is a chance to read several good books. Hall s are offering for one dollar each, books by such authors as Peter B. Kyne, Win ston Churchill, Anna Katharine Green, O. Henry, Mary Roberts Rine hart and Irving Bacheller. -mere is, in this good assortment, a book by Marjorie Benton Cooke, called "The Clutch of Circumstance," that is very interesting especially so, when one hears that it is supposed to deal in a way with the life of the wife of Marshall Field Second. i IF trophies were given at ladies' golf tournaments for good looking clothes, and plenty of them, a pretty Topeka matron would surely come home with the honors. She left home with six sweaters, three nifty suits, (a serge and two silk ones) several golf skirts, a lovely can ton crepe dress, three thin ones, num erous blouses and vestees, seven -pairs of shoes, and seven new hats. IS there any woman who does not adore 'silk lingerie? The wo man who has worn It knows that it pays to buy only the very best quality ot crepe de chine and wash satin. You will find this quality in the silk com bination suits, gowns and knickers at Warren M. Crosby's. These at tractive garments are beautifully made, cut after excellent patterns, and even tho they are the best to be obtained they" are not exorbitantly priced. A really'good piece of silk lingerie Is a splendid investment, for it is not a fragile, short lived garment. In the same department I saw something very new lingerie of pon gee, hemstitched, embroidered in bright little flowers, and made in at tractive and practical styles. Every one knows of the, wearing quality of pongee' and so all you need to in vestigate is the appearance of this new kind of underwear. Go to War ren M. Crosby's iand see it yourself. You'll find that it is appealing and ever so reasonable. The Butterfly Blouses have made a name for themselves and I saw two new white organdie models at War ren M.- Crosby's that are quite won derful. One was made with a tuxedo collar and cuffs embroidered in blue, yellow, green and rose, and edged with ruffed net. This blouse would look well, with any sweater, or with a suit. The other blouse was equally at tractive, made with double frill in the front, and the collar and cuffs edged with val lace and embroid ered both in rose and in blue. These blouses are made of imrjorted organdies that have a permanent fin ish and will not look like batiste after tney are laundered. A II Sped Up and No Place To Go Just a Personal View of a Motor Car Owner Who Is Trying to Get Safety and Pleasure Out of the Mad Rush on Topeka's Streets. AJO I don't know much about a motor car. If stranded out on a deserted coun try road with a stalled motor I would peek at the gasoline tank, kick the starter a few additional times for good measure, squint at some of the wires, try the crank until totally disgusted and disheartened and then hunt a telephone. But I do know that a motor car has two sets of brakes and a steering wheel and that a gentle touch of the foot will bring its tremendous power into active play. And I know that too many Topekans use the foot on the accelerator instead of on the brakes. In other words, this town is full of drivers, men and women, who believe that the best way to avoid accidents is to speed madly into them. The worst offense If there can be any classification of offenses is on the part of the driver who throws his steering wheel Into sudden play and turns into a street just in front of you." Take,' for instance. Sixth avenue and Topeka .boulevard. Despite the fact that this is a boulevard crossing, driv ers going east and west on Sixth dash madly into the boulevard traffic trust ing to luck and the good Lord that they'll make it. To watch traffic at this corner one would think that nine tenths of the drivers were answering death calls. As a matter of fact they are out for a leisurely evening drive, but they glory in their ability to assert the right of way by reckless speeding. I don't mind making way for a fire truck or even a driver who is indicat ing his anxiety to cross in front of me by his signals, but whenever I crawl over an intersection on which I have the right of way and from both sides motorists dash insanely in an appar ent effort to see how close they can come to my fenders, I suffer an al most demented desire to wound or kill. And some of these bright days or nights I'm going to try it. I may find that a much larger and harder pair of fists face me, but I'll have the satisfaction of fulfilling a long felt desire. Most of the accidents at street inter fHtctions are caused by persona who are all sped up with no place to go. The worst offense if there can be any classification of offenses is on the part or tne ariver wno tnrows ma steering wheel Into sudden- play and turns into a street Just in front of you. There is positively no excuse for this. Turning across traffic should be a slow, deliberate move on the part of the driver of the car, and should be be preceded with a long signal with the arm. In Topeka It appears to be a flirt with death and a trust in the brakes and mechanism of the other car. Some time, if I ever become snowed under with wealth, I am going to buy ti-iiflr And a million dol lar worth -of insurance. With this combination I am going put on fender busting crusade. XL 3'm' a 25-mile rate a big sedan filled with members, apparently, of his admiring family. Of course little Willie, the dear, couid NOT have been at fault in case he threw his car into another or a pedestrian. j Fond Father and Merciful Mother would not have allowed Willie to handle the reins of a span of thirty wild horses but they take no hesitancy In allowing him to control a powerful motor car down a crowded street.' These Wee Willies and Daring Dor othys are altogether too intimate with gasoline. A police whistle should be their curfew. Cabaret performances on wheels also add to the hair raising expe riences of conservative motorists. On any street almost at any time you'll see drivers, one hand grasping a cigaret and the other as 2-glrl party in the front seat, galloping a gasoline gale down the avenue. If it was con venient to hang both feet on the wind shield they'd probably do it Flirting with girls and death in the same breath is not a matter of public con cern unless the innocent bystanders are endangered. Then it becomes public property and a complaint is justifiable. Far h it from me to become prud ish about car Cupids but when I find it- mv dutv to scamper out of their way in order to preserve my own hair and hide 1 arise in vigorous proiesu Tjivb is a srrand institution but my youthful experience rather taught me that it was more successiui wmu practiced in more retired and restful iiaf es. Pollvfoxintr over a flowing gasoline tank is a dangerous outdoor sport. f T used to hold a great admiration for the locomotive engineer. Perched up on his seat in a bouncing, sputter ine cab ana diving into the night al- wavs was an enchantment to me. I held him ud as a man oi iron nerve, of fearless constitution, of heroic blood. Now when I stop and think that he is guided by block signals, that his locomotive is glued to mas sive steel rails and that watchful dis- natchers. ODeratora and flrgmen con trol his course to safety, while the citv is full of speed madmen who rush on uncertain pavements and roads with the infuriated speed of gas on pneumatic tires, J. hold up my friend, the engineer, as simply an orainary citizen earning his dally bread. If heroism is to be designated by danger, my enemy, the speed maniac, is to be Worshipped. The real hero, after all, is the man who' obeys the laws, pays his bills. donates his taxes, cares for his fam iiy, and lives and dies without public glamor or thrill. i God bless him! I don't mean to be vitriolic in my condemnations. I still have red blood in my veins.' I still enjoy a thrill and a sensation. I am not a crab. I'm too bloomin jJiberal Jn many of pay views, I dare say.' But I do wish to cling to the edge of this earth as long as health .and napplness permit. When I do -I'-don't wish, to be nicked out -from' beneath a motor car as a dancing taillight disappears in tne distance. 1 want a tignting chance at. life .so. .long. as. my 'heart pumps. I'll admit that my car has no place In my business. I'll admit that it is simply a luxury an expensive means or pleasure, ir you cnoose to classify. I'll admit that my car is not so good an investment as life Insurance or bonds or stock or building and loan. I'll admit that the wave of motor car infatuation engulfed me and I sank without a struggle. All I ftrist upon is the sane right of living and the protection, against idiotic fatalists who don't believe they'll die until their time comes. I don't suppose this means of -relieving my feelings will have any effect but I. can tell so many more persons what I think of them this way and I avoid the danger of personal combat. At least, I am sincere in thinking tnat I am right in my views. WHOSE TAXI? Payne's of course. and there are no end of things to be said about the Payne Taxi service. If you are in a hurry, call 711, and there win be a car at your door in no time. The drivers are very careful, courte ous and obliging, without exception. it really is unusual to find such a high class of men driving taxicabs. and it makes the taxi service just that much more valuable. If your youngster is disappointed over the prospect of missing Sunday school or a party because of bad weather or the lack of an escort, call a Payne Taxi, give the child the ad dress and fifty cents, and he will be taken to his destination as carefully as if his own father were at the wheel. I know of a Topeka woman who was having company for dinner, the dessert was a last minute failure, so she ordered a cake downtown and a Sayne Taxi called for it and brought it right out to her. imagine being able to avoid "That embarrassing mo ment" by a telephone call and fifty Do you know that you can taxi erywhere you go cheaper than owning and operating your own car? (Advertisement.) "Now about the kid drivers Impudent little tots If a driver in Topeka simply plowed his way down the streets and drove only according to law and the rights of the road, and he had an armored car of which I speak, he would leave a trail of hospital and garage pa tients in his wake. And he wouldn t be at fault, either. Beware if money ever comes my way! Then there are the maniacs who maintain a 3 3-mile gait down the street and over intersections looking straight ahead and shifting all the re sponsibilities to the drivers with love of life and limb. On they go, realiz ing, undoubtedly, that others fear them and try to keep out of their oath. I believe I said "30-miu gait." I'll cut this to twenty miles an hour and it will apply Just the same. Ten miles an hour is fast enough for any street intersection. If the .speed of motor cars was cut to tenmiles an hour at crossings there would be no accidents. And the high auto insur ance rates could and would be cut 50 per cent. You, Mr. or Mrs. or Miss Driver, know this to be true! And yet hundreds of you skirt right along the brink of death or injury and place your trust in your damnable luck. I'm not writing tnie In anger Just in a spirit of common sense. I drive a motor car and have a family. I'm emotionally fagged at the realization that I am placing my' family In con stant danger when I attempt to take a pleasure ride on a summer evening. Now about the kid drivers. Topeka Is overridden with them. Impudent little tots whose heads barely clear the lower part of the steering wheels go dashing thru traffic Last evening I saw a boy who could not have been more than 12 years ot age guiding at CUTICURA HEALS H N ACE Terribly Inflamed.

Live Steam Increases Mileage-Saves Gas, Gives More Speed and Power Whether you are driving; a Ford or a Packard or any other make of car it will pa you to investigate the Auto matic Steam Carburetor. This is an auxiliary carburetor. It injects live steam into the gas mixture. The Automatic Steam Carburetor can be adjusted to any motor and once regulated works automatical ly without further attention. With the use of the Automatic there is no possibility of the formation of. hard deposits which might ruin the motor. The Automatic employs a scien tific principle of the combination of steam and gas which puts more "pep" into the motor, cuts carbon deposits, keeps spark plugs clean, and gets every ounce of power every inch of mileage from each gallon of gasoline. (It automatically regulates the steam to suit the speed of the engine.) This is the carburetor you have been hearing about. This is the little attachment that gets 20 to 40 more mileage from the same amount of gas.
