Two Border Counties Become Irish "Upper Silesia." SPLIT On RELIGIOUS LINES Plebiscite Forecast Indicates Protestants in Minority. Sinn Fein Certain to Win Ter ritory From Unionists. London, Nov. 3. Sir James Craig;, the Ulster premier, has accepted the government's invitation, dispatched yesterday to come to London and con sult it as to Ulster's attitude toward the proposals regarding the Ulster boundary and other questions Involved in the Irish settlement plan. Sir James, it is stated, is coming: to London to discuss specific plans sub mitted to the government by the Sinn Fein of such a character that the gov ernment thinks them feasible if Ulster agrees to them. These plans do not, however, em body any agreement definitely reached between the government and the Sinn Fein. The Ulster premier has said throughout that he would not intervene until such an agreement was reached but has now consented to dis cuss the provisional proposals. Upper Silesia of Ireland. The Ulster counties of Tyrone and Fermanagh, where it is proposed to hold a plebiscite to determine their future status, promise to become the Upper Silesia of Ireland. Altho high hopes of an Irish settle ment has been aroused by the Brit ish cabinet's unanimous note to the unionist government at Ulster approv ing accepting of the Sinn Fein's pro posal of a plebiscite in the two coun ties, it was admitted today that ob stacles may still develop. Despite the pacific efforts of Sir Edward Carson, former leader of the Ulster unionists, and Premier Lloyd George, the question rose today whether Sir James Craig, unionist premier of Ulster, could overcome the opposition of the unionist "die hards" to the proposed compromise basis on the detachment of the two counties in question from Ulster prov ince. Split on Religious Lines. It was suggested that the plebiscite in Tyrone and Fermanagh counties be based upon the official census fig ures of 1911. These figures showed that Tyrone had 79,015 Roman Cath olic residents and 63,640 non-Catholic residents. Fermanagh had 34,070 Roman Catholic residents and 27,096 non-Catholic residents. The administration of Ulster prov ince concedes a Catholic majority in both countries, which would give the Sinn Fein a preponderance of strength. Premier Lloyd George is understood to have promised increased executive power to the Ulster parliament if the two counties are relinquished but unionist leaders at Belfast claim that the counties are required to offset the radical labor vote in the northern in dustrial pection. REED WANTS BIG R. R. CUT Wants Reduction in Freight Rates, Wiping Out 1920 Increases. Chicago, Nov. 3. Kansas became a party to the American farm bureau's plan for i educed freight rates before the interstate commerce commission today when Clyde M. Reed, chairman of the Kansas public utilities com mission, filed an intervening petition asking that rates be reduced 20 per cent immediately plus previous reduc tions and reductions continuing until the increase, ranging from 25 to 40 per cent, of last year be wiped out. WHEAT DROPS BELOW DOLLAR Chicago Price of 9 Cents Only Stood for Short Time. Chicago, Nov. 3. Wheat fell bo'ow a dollar on the board of trade today for the first time since October, 1916. December wheat dropped to 99 ft cents when a iarge number of stop loss orders remained uncovered. The new low price caused a. strong buying movement by traders who were short to set in and the resulting rally sent the price back over the dollar mark. Lack of speculative buying power caused the condition of the market, traders said. HOPKINS INVITED TO SPEAK Ahk.nl to Address Anti-Saloon Iseaguo In Washington. The Anti-Saloon league has asked R. J.

Beautiful Manhattan Girl Conducted Legion Fight, Won For Fighting Parson Ivy May Fuller, Ex-War Nurse, Took Command of Things and Made Kansas Chaplain National Ofncer of the Veterans' Organization. B5T HERBERT COREY in the Kansas City Star Here's a tip to the staff artist: Load up with some India ink and pencils and drawing boards and go out looking for Ivj May Fuller of Man hattan, Kan. Because she is not only a mighty pretty girl but she is the one who made the "Fighting Parson' of Cha nute, Kan-, the official chaplain of the American Legion. She ran the campaign. She pinch-hit for the chairman of the Kansas delegation. She rounded up delegates and held other delegates in line and generally played good politics. There are plenty of good politicians in the legion, but there isn't one of them who can out politic Ivv May. Ivy Took Command. Ivy May Fuller is no person to get away from. The process of election had proceeded until the balloting be gan for chaplain and there were E. C. Blackman, the "Fighting Parson" of Chanute, and others in the race. Ivy took command. She is, at a guess, 20-odd years old and her eyes are blue and her hair is the sort of red that is auburn in the magazine stories, and she wears one of the new fashioned blue dresses that has embroidery broken out- on it in spots and is just short enough to be perfectly satisfactory and has a neck that is scalloped out round also per fectly satisfactory and a delegate's badge with Ivy May Fuller written on it and the button of the legion. And she made up her mind to see that Blackman was elected. He is a good sport, this fighting par son. I mean that just the way it is written and not just the way it sounds. He was a chaplain with a fighting bunch over in France and one day he issued a challenge. He said that he would fight any other chaplain in the A. E. F. of anywhere near his weight. "Brother, verily, you are on," said about six other parsons. Spoiled Blaekman's Fight. But G. H. Q. was always "spoiling the wai&for the A. E. F. and G. H. Q. stopped the parson. After the. war he came back to his charge in Chanute and there each year he offers to re sign if his church does not agree with him that good, clean fighting and good clean dancing and pool playing and other good, clean sports are to be com mended rather than frowned upon. The church has always agreed with him and this year it raised his wages. He believes, as he said to me after his election, that a man can live a full, clean life and be a better Chris tian for it. He has always fought for clean sport. His fight has been a. bit harder since he came back from France than it was when he only had G. H. Q. to contend with, but he has fought on undismayed. That's all there is to be said Just now atfout the "Fighting Parson." The story of the fight is that of Ivy May Fuller. OPEN OR CLOSED? Washington Officials Settled Oyer Demand for Open Parley. Visiting Powers Wishes on Publicity Must Be Asked. Washington, Nov. 3. Government officials having to deal with the ar rangements for the armament confer ence now but ten days away, were obviously perturbed and nettled today at the increasing criticism being voiced in congress and the press against the "secrecy aspect" of the conference. Newspaper correspondents who at tempted to gain a definite Indication of Just how "closed" or how "open" the conference Is l(kely to be met with the official assertion that the press and public generally would be "pleas antly surprised" by the amount of openness in the forthcoming confer ence. No Intimation was given as to the nature of the "surprise" in store. The American delegation, it was said by one of its members, la pre pared to urge upon the conference the "maximum amount of publicity consistent with the efficient working of the conference." It would be obvious to Impose, offi- 1 cials stated, for the conference to be entirely open. Not only are the mem bers of the American delegation, indi vidually and collectively, opposed to this, but they believe that the visiting powers would not give their assent to any such arrangement. CHECKARTIST IS SUICIDE Coffeyvlllo Man in Missouri Jail Left Note Hung by Necktie. Excelsior Springs. Mo., Nov. 3. C. S. Johnson, of Coffeyville, Kan., an inmate of the city jail for the past four days, committeed suicide in his cell today. He used his necktie as a noose. Johnson was incarcerated after hav ing passed several worthless checks on merchants. A note found In his cell reads: If anything happens to me, notify H. J. Hazen of Leroy, Kan." MAY BE PRIEST SLAYER. Man Wlio Vanished from Load, S. D.T After Crime Held In Nebraska. Lead, S, Nov. 3. A man answer- j ing the description of Andio Riolando, wanted in connection with the mys terious murder of Father Arthur B. t Belknap, who was lured to a lonely 1 road and shot to death on October 26, (has been arrested at Sidney. Neb., ac today by Sheriff John Lutey. f Riolando' disappeared the mornins: t of the Blavine. Thru the nrocess of i elimination of Dossible clews, the j police became convinced that Rio lando killed the priest. During the balloting she announced the vote of Kansas, standing on a chair, ju. like the regular chairmen do. Why did I Bay "regular?" There are no more regular chairmen than she. She saw to it that runners were ent out to the other delegations to gather in votes. She caught one bird who announced the vote of his state he being the last delegate of that state on the floor and said to him: Ah, Ivy, Ivy, it wasn't just a sport ing thing to do. Or was it? Maybe all things are fair in politics. But what is one lone, lorn, abandoned delegate to do when a pretty girl gets him by the lapel of his coat and smiles at him in that bewildering way and asks him why he won't help her? Darn it, what could any delegate do? And when de fection threatened in other state dele pntprs it was Tvv who sent runners thru thf wirfl to tell the men in the advanced posts to hold on because I he was coming. She had her eyes on the whole field, and she handled the Reverend Mr. Blaekman's candidacy like a reaping hook. She AUtfost Ixst. 'or all that, an accident almost cost i come first had not been determined, her the victory when it was within her Tnk r-ni-h grasp. A misguided man from Iowa ",u lakc -ntn- not. unfortunately, a delegate dis- Bach of these issues was expected to covered that the Iowa delegation had be good for the major portion of a day gone to get dinner and got upon a j and extended debate was in prospect, chair and announced the vote of Iowa Senator Reed, Democrat. Missouri, for Blackman, as bold as brass. Black- I was to lead the fight for soldiers' bo man and Ivy May Fuller and all the r.us. supported by Senators Simmons other Blackmanites were innocent of of North Carolina, Walsh of Massa- intent to deceive, but that made no difference "I demand," said a delegate from Illinois, in a most unpleasant why, "I demand to know who this handy little voter is." And as no one could tell him. least of all could the unfortunate non-delegate tell him, but stood there pale and chewing nervously, while the eyes of what delegates were left in the hall were turned on him. Then he was asked would he go out quietly or should the sergeaht-at-arms use force and he did. But it turned the tide which had been running toward Blackman and it began to run the other way. Then Ivy May stopped that foolishness. In the end Black man was elected by acclamation, and the only other candidate remaining in the race came over and shook hands and wished him the best of luck. Every one hurried up and shook hands with Ivy May, .So did I. After that we shook hands with the "fight ing parson." Editor's Note Corey spelled her name 'Fullerton." but as vre know Ivy and as ne said just lots of nice things about her nnd n we had a ehanoe to eorreet the spelling, it's nil right. Ivy at one time won a beauty contest at a movie ball in Knnoaa City in which beautiful women from seven states were contestants. She has appeared in several motion pictures. During the war she was a nurse at a hospital In Washington and was pitcher for a baseball nine made up of nurses that played and beat a tenm made up of patients from overseas. ENDS G. N. STRIKE Employes Texas K. S. Have Until Friday to Kesume IVork. Ready To Go Back on Jobs Only Await Orders. Houston, Tex., Nov. 3. The six hundred striking members of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen, the train and yard force of the Interna tional Great Northern railroad, have until Friday to return to work under the terms of Federal Judge J. C. Hutcheson's order to James L. Baker, receiver for the road to take back the men. Brotherhood leaders were confer ring here today as to whether the men would be "authorized" to return to work. Judge Hutcheson's order provided that all the strikers be al lowed to return to work on probation for a month. Only the four local chairmen who led the strike, are ex cepted. They may return also if they can obtain consent from the road of ficials. If at the end of a month, the i strikers give evidence of good faith, their seniority rights will be restored and a new contract with the railroad may be negotiated. There seemed to be no doubt here today but that the terms of Judge Hutcheson's order would be complied with. It was considered on both sides that the strike was at an end and that tomorrow would see a return to nor mal in the handling of freight on the I. G. N., which has been moving irregularly since the strike was called twelve days ago. Only Wait for Orders. Fort Worth, Tex., Oct. 3. Striking International Great Northern train men here said today they would re turn to work as soon as official orders are given by their chairmen, follow ing yesterday's federal court decision in Houston, instructing the receiver to put them back. No orders of any kind had been re ceived here today and non-union crews were operating the switch, engines and freight trains. WICHITA TO COPY BERLIN.

BONUS CHIEF ISSUED Excess Profits and Sales Taxes Belay Reyenue Revision. Will Take Senate Day for Each Amendment. SALES TAX GAINING GROUND Senate Poll Shows Only Twelve Against Smoot Plan. Stock Stamp Tax Adopted Without Record Tote. Washington, Nov. 3. The tax re- vision fight in the senate had nar- rowed down today to three principal issues the soldiers bonus, excess profits amendment, the sales tax and the corporation income tax. Senators in charge of the measure thought these could be disposed of in two days and that the bill could be passed by Saturday night at the latest. Consideration of the revenue meas tire for committee and individual amendments was concluded last night and Senator Penrose of Pennsylvania. in charge of the bill, hoped to get to the big issues immediately after the senate convened today. Whether the soldiers,' bonus nr r.i1ps 1st fiht vnr.ld chusetts, and other Democrats. Senator Lenroot, Republican, Wis consin, was to head the senators op posing the sales tax, while Senator Smoot, Republican, Utah, author of the sales tax plan, counted on the suppoit of a number of senators from eastern states in carrying the debate. The quiet campaign among senators for this form of taxation was being continued and opponents conceded that the vote would be close but with a majority against the Smoot plan. Stock Stamp Tax Approved. An amendment offered by Senator Fittman, Democrat, of Nevada, pro viding for a stamp tax of 1 cent on Pfl Ph 120 or f rant inn thpronf rvf fho vnlllA rtf ranitnl utor-lr fhat Hnac nor exceed $100 per share, was adopted by the senate without a record vote. The amendment did not affect the committee amendment previously agreed upon which imposes a tax of 5 cents on each $100 or fraction there fore, of the par value of capital stock in excess of $100. The fight for the sales tax was launched today in the senate by Sena tor Smoot, Republican, Utah, after the tax revision measure had been per fected with committee and individual amendments disposed of. Proponents of the sales levy said they went into the fight with forty votes pledged for their plan. The rising tide of approval that has set in in favor of Senator Smoot's modified sales tax plan, gave promise today of sweeping it into the pending compromise tax bill, its supporters declared. Senator Penrose, Republican, of Pennsylvania, chairman of the senate finance committee, in charge of the pending measure, declared that much depends upon the outcome of the im pending verbal battle over the Smoot plan, in which Senator Lenroot. Re publican, of Wisconsin, is to be its chief adversary. Only Twelve Against. Opponents of the plan on the Re publican side whos- number was dis closed to be but twelve, after careful canvass made by Republican leaders, as compared with thirty pledged to vote for it, were counting much on Democratic opposition to aid them in preventing its adoption. Democratic members of the senate finance committee, stated that a can vass of the Democratic side had failed to reveal more than four or five of the minority who were favorable to the sales tax Idea. Its supporters, however, professed to find encouragement in the an- nouncement by Senator Penrose that he would not oppose the Smoot plan anno ne am not expeci xo vote "-or it:-tA.-ic j j i j t (10.15 o clock this morninir and each and would insist uoon fair and im-'.., "S taL" partial consideration. of it.

JJ I Wr m m r j .f1 1 m SS A 9' B- Bl'BROW, .President BIG CUT IN REDISCOUNTS Federal Board Ruling, However, Falls to Affect Tenth Reserve District. Washington, Nov. 2. A reduction of one-half of one per cent in the re discount rate of eight of the twoe federal reserve banks was announced, today by Wte federal reserve board. New rates at the eight' banks mak ing reductions are as follows. Four and one-half per cent. New York and Philadelphia; 5 per cent, Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City and San Francisco, and 5& per cent, Richmond and At lanta. The rates In force at the other banks which have not been changed as yet are: Five per cent, Boston; 6. Cleveland, and 6, Minneapolis and Dallas. The effect of the reduction In the rediscount rate on Topeka banks will be negligible, according to bankers of this city. "We have received no notice that our district -the Tenth district is included in the eight which have lowered their rates." J. R. Burrow, president of the Central National bank, stated this afternoon. '"Of course, we wonfld not be able to borrow from the Federal Reserve bank3 outside our own district. But It is my opinion that the national banks In Topeka are not borrowing, to any appreciable ex tent, from the federal reserve anyhow. "It would mean that the national banks which do desire to borrow, if the Tenth district rate is reduced would be able to submit eligible se curity and borrow money at a lower rate. WEATHER.

ABOUT FORTY YEARS AGO a man died, leaving a will appointing four individuals as executors and trustees. ONE failed to quali fy; ANOTHER resigned; THE THIRD was removed for incompetence; THE FOURTH died about sixteen years ago. One of the most important advantages of naming this Company your trustee is the as surance of continuous performance of its function. Corporate in character, its life and efficiency are not limited to the uncertainties of individual life, nor individual judgment and resources. The form of trust known, as a .LIVING TRUST eliminates all uncertainty as to the working provisions of YOUR TRUST AGREEMENT. We suggest that you have an in formal talk with our Trust Of ficer, and ask for an interesting booklet on -the subject of trusts and trustees.

Entire Families Committing Suicide to Escape Famine. Riga, Nov- 3. Children are living in the woods and fields like young ani mals in some parts of the famine dis trict of Saratov, says an official wire less dispatch from Moscow. They are little waifs, who have fled from famine stricken cities and vil lages, and subsist on roots and grass. When adults approach they flee, show ing every evidence of fear. Over crowding of children's homes has been carried so far in the Syrzan and Ufa district some institutions are shelter ing four times as many children as they have accommodations for. In these places children take turns in occupying such beds as are availa able, one small famine victim crawl ing into a bed the moment another child vacates it. "Entire families are jumping into rivers and cases are reported 'of par ents strangling their children rather than see them die by starvation," says the dispatch, which also gives the first report of disorderly migration. "Over the roads in the Irbpt district Is moving a band of disorderly refu gees from starving Volga." NO REFUND FOB FOREIGN BRIDE Yanks Wlio Pa id Passage to U. S. for Wives Are "Out-a-Luck.M Washine-ton, Nov. 3. Soldiers who paid for the transportation of Euro pean brides to this country, must stand the expense themselves, accord ing to a ruling by Comptroller General McCarl. The governmenthe hold,? will not reimburse soldiers for such outlay. The ruling was handed down in the case of Christopher Piazza, formerly of the army ambulance service, who asked for reimbursement from the govern ment for passage paid by him for the transportation to this country of his wife whom he married in 1919 while in service in Italy. Provisions of law under which 123 European wives of soldiers were brought to this country at the expense of the government prior to J une 5, 1920, Mr. McCarl held, do not apply where a soldier has already paid for his wife's passage.

Representa tives of religious denominations and others interested in the question of whether wholesale dealers in sacra mental wines may do business under the prohibition laws will be given a hearing by the department of justice next Vuesday, officials said today. Secretary Mellon has asked Attorney General Daugherty for an opinion as to whether former Attorney Geneial Palmer's ruling which held that wholesale liquor dealers could be banned from participating in the dis tribution of intoxicants applied to dealers in wines for religious purposes. Argument, on the question will be heard by the department before an opinion is drafted, officials declared. SPAIN CALLS IN RESERVISTS Or 120,000 Drafted, 20,000 Allotted to Reinforce African Expedition. Madrid. Nov. '3. One hundred and twenty thousand Spanish reservists ot the 1921 class have been called to the colors and today 20,000 were allocated to service against the rebellious Moors in Morocco. This brings the strength of the Spanish army in Morocco to more than 150,000 men. Rainy season has begun in Morocco and lack of shelter has caused much sickness among tne Snanish soldiers. About 1,500 sick and wounded men are being rushed homeward each week. The Spanish advance towards the Kert river has been checked by Kebal tribesmen but the Spaniards have cap tured Taxudu on another sector of the front. This place was taken after stubborn resistance and the fepamsh advance in that district continues. REOPEN DM ATCHISON" MINE Purchasers Pump Water Which Has Covered Machinery Sixteen Years.

E Cook and Fred Evans, formerly of Kansas City, and now of Atchison, was announced here today by the Waggener and Carlisle interests which bought the property at receivers' sale in 1905. Several hundred feet of water which has covered the machinery in the mine for many years will be pumped out by means of a Dig pump purchased from the government, used in connection with a powder plant at Nashville, Tenn.. during the war. Atchison coal at one time was mined and marketed with success, but tech nicalities in the organization of the old company forced it to the wall. BURRIS JENKINS QUITS POST.

Jenkins, pastor of the Lin- wood Boulevard1 Christian church, to day severed his connection with the Kansas City Post, of which he has been publisher for nearly three years.

Frederic J Ilaskln, Director, Washing ton, I). C. The wheels of justice revolve slowly but they revolve relentlessly. Debs 14 in the penitentiary, Howat is in Jail, Haywood and Bergdoll are in exils, and Townley is about to begin serving a term fi prison. J. L. Lewis, presi dent of the U. M. V. A., should think it over. The only proper limitation upon one man's liberty of action is such limitation as is necessary to pro tect the fights of others. Laws are properly enacted limiting the right of men to stand in groups on he side walks of cities because such groups interfere with the right of Other men to traverse the streets. The right of parents to let their children go Into certain kinds of employment tinder specified ages may very properly b3 limited as such employment would in terfere with the right of every child to a healthy body and mind. The exer cis of free speech may and should be limited by law when the character f 1h speech is calculated to destroy the r'crht of other men to live in security in the enjoyment of their personal liberty and property. But all these and other limitations upon the rights of individuals should be fixed by law spread upon the statute books where every citizen may read and know the extent of his liberty and the limitation placed thereon. In no event should a man's rights be subject to the determination of other men whose Judgment may be prejudiced r un sound. The workers' greatest need is a free press "as an antidote to poisoned propaganda," declares John F. Mc Namee. editor of the Locomotive Fire men's and Knglnemen'a Journal. On the contrary, the workers greatest need ia more common sense and re gard for the facts.. But Mr. McNamee evidently believes in fighting the devil with fire. .Ho would oppose a press which he charges is subsidized by cniutal with a press subsidized by la- bor. Where then could the ordinary man look for truth? A report has just been made to the parliament of Switzerland that tb.2 Swiss slate railways could be run Just as well If about 3.000 officials were dismissed, and there would be an annual saving of $3,000,000. That corresponds with the experience of the United States after twenty-six months of government operation of its rail roads. It would be interesting to know whether this ia ths experience of every country operating its own railroads or only of those having a re publican form of government, It is reported that ninety-two thou sand buffalo fish have-been set free in the Mississippi river. This calla to mind the time when many streams and ponds were stocked with carp. The buffalo fish is but a slight Im provement over the carp. Why is It that the government picks out worth less kinds of fish with which to stock the streams when there are so many desirable sorts? Of all the mediums available in Io. eating openings for services, says a writer In Leslie's, by far the most Im mediate is the "help wanted" adver tisements of the daily newspapers, magazines and trade publications. This avenue is immediate because here you know definitely that some where, somebody requires services that you are ready to offer. Misled by those whose Information is derived from fancy rather than from fact, many have been led to believe that good openings cannot be located thru "help wanted" advertisements be. cause, as they have been Informed. good positions are not advertised. Nothing is farther from the truth, de clares this writer, and continues: "t have tested this source 1n my job hunting days, and for clients and dur lng this experience t have inserted ad vertisements calling for men and wo met. of large caliber with salaries ranging from $3,000 to J25.000 per annum. But the best proof Is to be found in the newspapers, magazines and trade publications. A glance any day will convince any one that 'help wanted' advertisements are really ex cellent opportunities for those out of employment, or seeking to obtain bet ter positions." WATCH THE FARMEHS. It is remarked bythe Manufactur ers' Record that "unless the farmer gets a better show he will quit the Job and then starvation food supplies and famine prices will endanger the nation." This does not mean that all the "farmers will quit entirely. It means that many of them will quit entirely and others will greatly reduce their production, making an effort chiefly to produce the things needed for their own families. When a farm er, at the end of the season, sells it wagon load of hogs and then, after figuring up the results, finds that he would be. richer if he had killed the pigs .when they were a day old, there is little prospect of his raising many hogs the next season. The same is true of producers of other agricultu ral products. The probability of loss will sooner or later cause the farmer to quit and seek a job that pays bet ter. But it seems probable that the farmer first will try the remedy" that he has applied on previous occasions, and that is stir up a political revolu tion. There are many indications that something of this sort now is in the making in the west. Econpmio law demonstrates Its power in the case of the farmer in an irresistible manner. It knocks down the price of his product and he has no way of protecting himself. He can not strike and hold prices up that way, as the labor unions can. Eco nomic law will win out in either case, but it seems a little unfair to the farmer that he must take his medicine so quickly, compared with the other classea. His earnings have fallen to pre-war levels. The department of, agriculture has recently issued tables showing the average prices to farmers, of ten lead ing crops, which constituted about 80 per cent of the value of all crops. The average prices in 1915 are taken as 100, and as compared with this, prices on September 1 of this year stood at 109. The average price of 1913, how ever, was low, as the price at several periods in 1910-1912-1913 and 1911 stood also at 109. Farm prices, then, are evidently down as low, on the average, as they may be expected to go. This would be all right if the things the farmer needd to buy with his" dollar had also gone down as much. But his dollar, that is, a dollar's worth of farm products now, will not buy what would have been a dollar's worth of other com modities in 1913. His dollar will now buy only 66 cents worth of these same things that he needs. The farmer has reason to regard la bor wtyh much prejudice, because the prices of most of the things he wants are being held up to near-war prices by high wages. An extreme case is house furnishings, which are 123 per cent above the before-the-war levels. High railway wages also afford the carriers an excuse for maintaining high transportation rates. In times like tjiese the farmer usu ally has found a way to help himself, or else has taken out his grievances on the politicians. .Ho appears to" be preparing to do one or the other of these things. If the city can make a profit of $10,000 a month on its water busi ness, as shown by Commissioner Stan field's report, it shows that similar re sults might be obtained in other mu nicipally handled utilities. Good man agement an do much. PAYING FOR SERVICE. High prices in the restaurants is de fended by "Farm Life'" in the follow ing: You sell a pound of beef," on the hoof at the yards, for-10 cents. Then you go down town to a restaurant and pay a dollar for it. Thatdoes not mean, however, that somebody, or even a group of somebodies, has been profiteering to the tune of 90 cents. Perhaps nobody has profiteered. You have been paying for service. Nat urally you didn't want to kill and dress your own beef, and 'cook your steak An a sharpened stick over an open fire in the woods. You wanted all the trimmings the orchestra, the table linen, the silverware, etc. And, most of all, you wanted somebody to take that steak and keep it on ice for you, with a cook and a fire waiting, so that when you stepped Into the restaurant and said, "Gimme a good porterhouse steak," you could have it right on the spot. You wanted the service. Everybody wants service., Much of what the editor says may be true, but what people object to Is paying a dollar for a steak when they have bought, a better one in other places lor less money. This Is what gives them the Impression that Bonn thin; is wrong. ,The same principle applies in many other lines. Take the laundry, for in stance. A man, rather than wash and iron his own shirts and collars, will send them to the laundry and pay the cost of the service, whatever It may be. But when he- is charged In To peka, for instance, times as much as he would pay in Kansas City, he wonders why. A Michigan congressman, has pre pared for introduction In the house a bill which removes restrictions on the sale of beer and taxes the brew J 4 a barrel for the purpose of obtain ing money to pay a soldier bonus. Whether he expects to win the soldier vote on account of the beer or the "bonus does not appear. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC 3. HASKHf, Director, Washington, D. O. HOW YOU CAX HELP THE UH EMPLOYED. Washington, D. C, Nov. 1. You may not be in a position to offer a regular job to anyone, but neverthe less you can do your share toward helping the unemployed. You can do this by having done now work that must be done some time. If the front porch or the barn needs a coat of paint, if the furnace needs fixing, if you contemplate building a chicken house or laying a sidewalk, if your premises need clean ing up have it done now. Even to have" your hair cut or your shoes shined when you can well afford it and might otherwise neglect it, is to add something to the sum total of work. YThls is the plea of Colonel Arthur Woods of New York, who is chairman of the committee on civic, community and emergency measures, of the un employment 'conference. His job is to find immediate ways of placing people in industry while the confer ence makes a thoro study of the sit uation, and especiallyto help in muni cipal and other community efforts to solve the problem. His work has Just begun. He Is getting in touch with the mayor of every city in the United States having a population of 25,000 or more, with the exception of some cities, which have already tackled the problem with such energy and skill that they are obviously not in need of any help. Cities Doing Good AVork. The number of cities which are al ready doing good work is considerable, anc. will evidently grow. That, in fact, is the striking feature of the situation. The country is carrying the unem ployed on its conscience in a way that is wholly unprecedented. There have been many worse spells of unemploy ment in the history of this country than the present dne. The usual at titude toward them in the past has been to ignore them. The theory has been that if you do not talk or vtfrite about hard times, they will disappear. Bury your bead in the sands of opti mism and you are safe. This ostrich like attitude has suddenly disappeared. The unemployment problem is a lead-" mg feautre of news and conversation. The country teems suddenly to have awakened to the fact that a man who wants-to work and is able to work, but can finefno work to do, is a po litical and economic liability which the country cannot afford. He is proof positive that the social machine de.es not function well. He is at once the strongest argument of the agitator, and his most receptive auditor. The Woods committee aims to act as a clearing house for information as to how the unemployment problem may be met by cominunities. Port land, Ore., for example, is solving its unemployment problem with great satisfaction. In this as in other cities charity and waste are frowned upon. Portland announces that one of its objects is to make soup kitchens un necessary. After all, soup kitchens and bread lines are a confession of failure. The Portland committee also an nounces, as one of its purposes, to keep employers from taking advan tage of the situation to reduce wages. Portland has one committee to urge the undertaking of as much public work as possible. Another handles the industrial phase of the problem, and urges industry to do as much con struction work as possible. It also solicits the householder to provide the odd jobs. There is a special director for the employment of women. For the floating population a wood yard has been established which will pro duce and. sell cord wood. A municipal rock pile will be operated for those who refuse to work. No Unemployment Allowed. So if you don't want to work, don't go to Portland. Colonel Woods also Is advocating in the nation at large the undertak ing of as much public work as pos sible. He does not advocate that either states, cities, industrial con cerns or individuals have work done merely for the purpose of affording jobs. That is waste. He advocates that in the case of cities and states, work for which appropriations have already been made should be under taken at once. Work ordinarily done only in the summer, as is the case with much street and other municipal work, should be continued as long as the weather permits. The individual should look about for things that need to bo done, and have them done now. The unemployment situation al ready shows marked signs of improve ment, but the fact should not be over looked tbsit many men are still em ployed in the harvest fields who will soon be out of jobs. The real test of the country's ability to keep its man power employed will come this winter. The correspondence of Colonel Woods with the various mayors re veals the fact that much might be ac complished if a method could be worked out for shifting men to where they are needed. For example, -from towns in the cotton belt comes word that not only is there no unemploy ment, but more cotton pickers are ur gently needed. Grand Hapids, Michi gan, needs furnitare upholsterers. The list might be lengthened. This doubtless is one of the national phases of the problem which the con ference will deal with in due course. The Woods committee wants it under stood that the conference is not try ing merely to pass the buck to the cities. National measures will be got under way in due course. But it does believe that the solution of the prob lem undoubtedly begins in the cities. They are the ones who must do the emergency work. George Matthew Adams Daily Talk THE STVMBLER. Sometimes there is nothing that pre sents so pathetic a figure as success! x To fail grandly takes so much of patience, so much of courage so much of the stuff that men use that exhausts their souls. It takes infinite wisdom to keep going and going. When the night came 6n with its black robes and covered Calvary and the day had all gone out -there hung upon that central cross the figure of a man that seemed to represent any thing but success. And yet after nearly two thousand years, the Man of .the Cross -continues to color and in spire the world and tell it that Faith cannot fail. The stumbler, also, as you look at him, presents a picture of pathoa So strong so weak: And yet he comes nearer represent ing the noble clay of human action than anyone else. For ha feels so deeply and suffers so- We look at him and amile or walk right pas? him as tho having no way or part with him. But when we do, we are as he is. When we get to know God quite well, the first thing we notice about Him ia that He spends so muth of His time in keeping track of those who stray afar. He is always the "Good Shepherd." And as the watcher of His sheep, He has great- concern for the one that can't keep up with the big'hercr and stumbles and maybe falls over a rock and is wounded. It would be very fine if we never lost our way, never wandered, never stumbled. But if that were the case, how would we come to know the depths of feelings out of which the strong man moulds his love, his sympathy, his toierance? None of us need feel ashamed to sit and sup with him whom the world calls the prodigal for we are all prodigals. And not very many of us belong to "the ninety and nine." Dorothy Dix Talks BY DOROTHY SIX World's Highest Faid Womaa Writer. How Men Propose 1. A young clerk in a postofflce In a suburb of Chicago has been caught opening tne lat letters that went thru his hands. He was suspected of be ing dishonest, and on the lookout for money, but investigation proved that he was just a love thief. The only letters he tampered with were those addressed to girls, and ha rifled them in an effort-to find out how other men made love, and how, to pop the ques tion. It will come with a shock of sur prise to women to learn that any man is driven to such desperate straits for hints on how to propose. We had supposed that a knowledge of how to make love came to man by nature, as Dogberry thought a knowledge of reading and writing did. Also, we were more than suspicious that most women are not slow in feeding a man sentimental cues, and have wit enough to give a halting lover the final shove over the Jjrink of a proposal when they have lured him that far along the path of courtship. It appears that this Is- a superficial view of the matter, however, and that there are still men who choke when they try to tell a girl that she is "the only woman in the., world for them, and who are smitten with pe l paraly sis when they start to write it. Hence the world is full ofxasperated women who have grown weary waiting for the men to speak who have. monopolized their attention, and burnt out their electricity, and never come to the point. It is to this class of dumb lovers that the "postof f ice Romeo belongs, and if they can get any tips from stealing from other lovers, "let the good work go on. As a matter of fact, It mu- be ad mitted that, considering tl...t men have had a monopoly of all active lovemaking ever since Adam told Eve she was It in the Garden of Eden, they do it very badly. They balk at the critical mdment. They are tongue-tied when they should be fluent. They choose the wrong time and place, and generally bungle the situation. They outrage the artistic proprieties. They sit down and squash the halo of romance that a woman has woven aboutj the affair, v Every woman has dreamed of being wooed in lovely Booth Tarkington language, and of being able to treasure the memory of her proposal to her dying day, but when the time comes the man shoves a commonplace ques tion at her in a commonplace way, and it shatters the ideals of a lifetime. When the average man asks a girl to marry him she bursts Into tears. He thinks she is weeping with Joy at getting such a good thing as he is. In reality, she is crying with disap pointment at the way he did it. She had expected to be able to tell her grandchildren how grandpa proposed, but well, one of the secrets that no woman ever tells is what her husl uciu ocwva mien is icdiijr yupyK:i Liirt question. (Copyright, 1920. by the WfcesIM Cyodlrata, Dinner Stories The feminist orator was wound uo as she addressed the gathering of mere men. "Women," she shouted, "have In all times and in all countries been the mainspring of national- existence. Who was the world's greatest hero? Helen of Troy! Who was the world's greatest ruler? Queen Victoria! Who was the world's greatest martyr? Gentlemen, who, I say. was the world's greatest martyr?" And with one voice that immense crowd of men arose and cried: "My wife!" An unfortunate man, possessed of a comfortable competency, evidenced various eccentricities, and so his lov ing relatives tenderly escajrted him to a famous neurologist. The latter viewed the patient from different points of the compass, and in due course passed him on to a psycho pathologist. This polysyllabic expert subjected him to an exhaustive analy sis and presently shucked him off onto a psychiatrist. The latter had hardly more than begun his Investiga tion when the patient lost the most of his money. Thereat his kin turned him loose, declaring that they had no more time to waste on a darned old crank. And he fell into the hands of a shabby plug of an unknown general practitioner, who gave him a few doses of bitter stuff and cured him for a dollar and sixty cents. A movie actor was up before the bar of justice charged with bigamy. "I'll give you one chance to explain yourself," said the judge. "The rec ords clearly show that you married your second wife a month before you were divorced from your first. How about it?" "It's this way, your honor," returned the defendant, unperturbed. "In our business we never take the scenes in the order they appear on the screen sometimes the last scene is taken first.

Break Cleanly In the Clinches, Gentle men, Sir Allow me to correct G. C. B., wljo threw a fit over the translation of De mortuis nil visa bonum. He trans lated it-as "Of the dead there is noth-v ing but bones." It should have been, "Of the -dead there is nothing but good." This would change the motif of his tempi, don't you think?- And how did the proofreader slip by that? L. L. Q. The thing we desire to impress upon the (business of being modest) two or three readers of the column is that it isn't our fight. We have no inter est in that and we are stage-managing it merely as a courtesy to the combat ants. But our contemplation of it inspires the thought that this is a sad world. Unhappily, somebody 'gets a Latin quotation wrong and the people are plunged Into gloom. Only yesterday we heard a gentleman lamenting the fact that he must stand in line to get into a motion-picture theater and life turned into a monotonous succession of dull browns and steel grays. The women are unhappy because one of their number was not selected to sit in the arms parley. The men who had to stand up coming downtown on the treet car this morning are dissatisfied and discouraged. Life seems hardly worth living. We have had the experience of reading Mr. Blanton's amazing con tribution to the Congressional Record. And, having been reared in a rural community, we can understand pretty nearly every word of it. Of a fact, only one phrase eludes us, and meditation and reflection may brins that back. ''Beer for medicinal purposes will not be available fortwo weeks. The delay is regrettable. Such, of the sick, and afflicted as need beer need it now. "As this situation developed," Mr. onepparo, or the conductors, is quoted as saying, "we found that in striking we would not be hitting the people we wanted to hit, the railroads, but would be fighting the government." That's the talk.. Down with the railroads! They Vre a menace to the country and an enemy tb the working man. No wonder the conductors and others who get their living from the railroad hate them! The railroads are no good. Those who have invest ed their hard-earned savings in railway securities should be punished. Let's out the property and prefer a charge of felony against every individual con nected in any way with railway man- agefnent. If care were taken in each instance to try tne culprit before a jury composed of members of the rail unions conviction would be easy and justice would be done. After trie railways were destroyed the government could step in and ap point a committee consisting of a conductor, a switchman and a section foreman to rehabilitatejhe properties and put them on a sound business basis. That is the only way out, and we suggest that it be done, We have directed attention to the amazing fact that they have begun to play a little crude football west of the Allegheny mountains. We gather from the report of Saturday's games that the sport is also being in troduced south of Mason and Dixon's line. The time Is coming, probably It Is not far distant, when football will be played as far west as Keokuk, Ia., and as far south as Nashville, Tenn. The North Dakota experiment In credulity and gullibility has been -pronounced a failure by those who made it possible. -It had'.- its interesting phases. It was the largest sale of crayon portraits of prosperity, at a uniform price of $16 the copy, in the history of art. The moral of it all is that the gentle man who can paint a word-picture, no matter how crass it may be, will al ways have a clientele if he observes the precaution of settling up his 'studio at some point west of the Mississippi river. Not that the West Is more stupid than the East. Mass for mass, it prob ably Is less stupid. But the West is always falling into the error of think ing it thinks. The East makes no pre tense of doing so. Our' favorite author of light and casual fiction, who is none other than Arthur Brisbane, commends the land lord who, after setting ready to put Evelyn Nesbit Thaw out of her tea room for non-payment of rent, re lented to the point "of permitting her to remain until today. We are not one of those who abuse landlords, but inasmuch as Mrs. Nes bit Thaw was compelled to attempt suicide to secure the concession, the quality of mercy disclosed is not un duly impressive. Reporters who covered the story say, altho Mrs. Nesbit Thaw is thirty-five years old, she still is a good-looking woman. Inasmuch as that Is what the public wants to know about Mrs. Nesbit Thaw, we relay the information to readers of the column. However. -the rule Is that a woman who isn't good-looking at thirty-five never has been and isn't going to be. UTTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK BT UEB PAPK. Me and Puds Simkins and Mam?

That while man proposes and hes itates the gods take a, hand in hu man affairs was exemplified in the next few days. Margaret had decided to let Jonn know she was in N-ew York; to ask her to live with her in the apartment. Yet she hesitated, not knowing ,just how to approach the subject. Craig Forrester called her on the telephone. "Dine with me tonight?" he asked. "Thank you, I shall be delighted. I was feeling rather blue," Margaret re plied. "Where shall we go?" "The Purple Pup, if you don't mind." "Not a bit! Iet roe see, that is down in Greenwich Village isn't it?" "Yes, Joan goes there." "I see! You hope you may see her?" "Yes." "I'll call for you at 6:39? I have a hazy idea that one dinea early in those place?." "I shall be ready." In the taxi Margaret leaned back comfortably. They talked little yet frequently laughed together. "Aren't you afraid you'll meet your daughter if you dine in .places she mentions In her letters?" Forrester asked. "I expect to. If not tonight,, some ether time. She says she smokes now,"- Margaret added apropos of nothing in particular. "Most young women do. The younger they are the mora they smoke." "I'd better commence then. I long to be young you know, and if smok ing is an indication of youth I shall take to the cigaret at once." Forrester shook with laughter. "You are delicious!" he said. "It is perfectly incredible to me that either your daughter .or yourself can think you such a fossil." Then: "Any one lacking my perspicacity would never Imagine that all this nonsensl leads up to Joan that you are dying to see your young lady daughter." "Don't imagine things," Margaret said reprovingly. "Well, aren't you anxious to see her?" "Of course I want to see her. We never have been separated before, not even for a day. But I haven't been ready until 'now. Really I have been quite shameless about it, Craig. I have .so wanted to impress her with the idea that I. too had some personality: that I was not quite derelict even if I were old." Then after a moment she added: "And I want her to be inter ested in rn as I am in her. Not love me only as a mother, but like me as a woman." "You are splendid, Margaret. Arrived at the Purple Pup, Margaret scanned the faces about the room. No sign of Joan. Then the door opened and to the sound of gay lilting voices land much laughter, Joan and two Oinvra, a. gin ttuu a limn, eiuerru. Margaret caught sight of her almost at once, and Joan perceived her mother at almost the identical mo ment, vsiie was attracting attention, Joan was, as she. stood there in the doorway round-eyed, unbelieving. She almost ran to the table where Mar garet and Forrester were sitting, "Mumsie mother what People coming in, and those already seated stopped everything ret look and listen. GreenwichVillage is always on the qul-vive for something out of the ordinary. ,"Yes, Joan. Won't you sit with us? You remember Mr. Forrester of course." "Cf course!" Joan answered in her old impudent fashion vouch-l safmg him a nod. "I have been intending -to call you up but I have been so busy," Mar garet said guiltily realizing the ad vantage she had over Joan. She had come down to the Villaga purposely to meet Joan, hoping she would be there. Joan thought her living quietly in the little country town where for years they had made their home. It was no wonder sire was almost incapable of speech. "But when why" v "Never mind Joan. Introduce us to. your young friends." Margaret smiled indulgently upon her daughter.

Evening Story 111 1 A Question of Rivalry. BY a. w. PEACH. Stanley Murdoch looked with som ber eyes into the brown, amused eyes of the girl opposite him. "Ruth, you are purxle.. and I wish you would unravel or unriddle or something else. You know I love you; you let me go just so far until I hink you have some feeling fo me, and then then the cold water," he added gloomily. She-studied him gravely. "I do iViinlr b ,p,t ai nf von. T like fn he nrtf k urn. Vnt u ianHftM.U inri B.ta a rule good company. You do many things the right way," but She paused, her baffling eyes studying him. "But he urged. ""But," she contiued, "there are ob stacles." He stared at her sharply. "Obstacles or obstacle? Ah, I see; there is some one elae. I thought so a rival back in the old home town. Won't you tell me about him?" She mused as she paused before an swering. "Why, yes. I might a lit tle. I like him because well, he is spienuidly unselfish, thoughtful of others ani always even tempered" "He must be, getting ready to die with such a record," he interposed a "And always good-natured," 'she' atiaeq quietly, "mever neara mm say an unkind thing except in defense of kind things." "Uuth I beg your pardon. I swear I am sorry, but I can't bear the thought of some one, else having you," he said earnestly. "Tell me, isn't there much of a chance for me?" 'She laughed softly "Why do you desire me so much? Yes, Stanley, there is a chance, of cwurse. I do like you, but well, I guess you under stand.' He did not understand, however. He simply knew that there was a rival who must be beaten, who must be pre vented from winning the brown-eyed, brown-haired girl whose slight but graceful form had walked into Mur dock's heart the first time he saw her. Beyond a grim determination- to win her from her old, home lover he did not go in his thinking. The next day a dim ray of light struck him. An error by a subordi nate in the office aroused his ire, and a quarrel followed that led to his be ing summoned into the manager's of fice. "Stanley, that confounded temper of yours makes more .trouble in this of fice than any other thing. Now you are worth too much to us to fire you, and you know it; but for heaven's sake take a brace. Treat people a bit more decently, and they'll think more of you!" the manager said" earnestly. The phrase that stuck was "think more of you." "That was what Ruth was driving at. Thunder! I didn't realize I was such a nut as that!" he said to himself as he debated the mat ter. "That home town chap has some thing on me there!" From that hour he braced decided ly, and he was astonished at the changed attitude of the office toward him. but he Was more happy over the change in Ruth. They were returning from an after noon together at their favorite beach. She slipped a small hand thru his. "Stan, do you know that this is a record day? You haven't quarreled With anybody today not even the conductor who 'sassed you on the 'L.' Hew ashamed of you I have been sometimes!" 'You never will be in the ffHre be cause of these' hot-headed stunts of mine, Brown Eyes. I am going to gain on that home town cqap." She laughed in her merry way and walked a bit closer to him. Out of a clear sky, destiny or what ever it is that breaks into a man's way of life and shoves him into the right path, another incident came to open his eyes. Adjoining the apartment house where he had his rooms was a fine court, cool and comfortable on the warm days. Returning from work one afternoon he found the two children of one of the apartment dwellers play ing in his chosen cornier. He drove them out with some degree of anger. He was rewarded with the sound of a heated girlish voice saying, "You big brute! You are the most selfish man in this house!" He stared at the flushed face of the young mother. "Selfish!" He heard another voice, girlish like) thia one.aay of his rival "splendidly unselfish." He rose, called the children back, sat down, and taking the scattered blocks began to erect a fascinating tower. The children slowly drew close P nc .See It Today atour5tore 4 TItc Honse That Guarantees Its Pianos."- J'j V Sends ISJ& J this jj r a month CI Seelt Today tl naus to him, and in a few moments they were depely interested. The mother, harder to win, softened until she smiled. When the playtime was up the youngsters were his friends and the mother apologetic, but Stanley w.is sober. "I am mighty grateful to you for what you said. Really, 1 did not real ise I was such a chump, but now I see. Here's where I take a brace!" He found it hard, but the effort paid. Unconsciously, his circle of friends widened; men he had learned to avoid because they made it evident that he was not their kind, warmed to, him. In a word, the attitude of life took a tremendous change. But the best change was in Ruth. On that memorable evening she was making ready a dainty lunch for him, and she announced: "Stan, I am going home for a brief visit." The news sounded' like a KneH to him. Out of his life and back to the rival he feared. He looked at her quietly: to his lips rose no bitter com ment, sarcastic in tone; all that lay behind him in the weeks of determined effort in which he had killed, and for good, the habit that had made him less of a manv served him now. -His silence' caught her attention, and she looked up. Perhaps in his face there was the shadow of his long ing; for her, his great fear that he might lose her, his abiding regret for unhappy things of the past. Anyway, he saw the brown, fathomless depths of her eyes clear, and thru them glow a steady light. Then she came to him- caught his cheeks in her cool palms. "Stanley, dear, lon't look that way. I do love you and you may have me!" Somewhat later he said happily, "I am sorry for that rival of mine." She laughed, her eyes, twinklin" to his. "That rival was you your other self, dearie, thought'eas, seitish, hot tempered. There was no other. You won me' for yourself from your other self. See?"

Habit is always forging chains to enslave us, so that what has been found bearable by the fathers is accepted by the sons. Who cannot recall the coffee-pot Mother put on the stove early in the morning; warning us not to let it boil over? As children, we were not permitted to drink tea or coffee, because it would stunt our growth or make us nervous and irritable. When older, however, we craved a hot drink with meals, and custom gave us our tea or coffee. Finally, upon the instructions of the doctor, Mother gave up her tea and coffee. But that meant nothing in our young lives. Our vitality was then strong enough to throw off any ill effects. But our time came, and we learned by experi 1: r1-. Postum for centage is 2ft. But that state has only about two and one-half million dol lars invested in church and indepen dent colleges. The adjoining state stands at the very head of the column with a percentage of 34. But the state has thirty-nine million dollars invested in non-statei colleges. "It is to our church college's that we are chiefly indebted for our re cruits for ministerial and missionary service. No greater calamity couTd come to popular education, than to have the leadership of the church pass into the hands of an uneducated min istry." A feature of th college department meeting was a discussion of whether the flexibility in collego entrance re quiremcnts and freed college electives has resulted in a sacrifice of scholarship, and whether there are dismissal of the- indictment now any compensations for such a sacri- j against her on the technical claim she Xit-o. j was not brought to trial within sixty The discussion was carried on by 1 days aft?r her arraignment as re Miss Margaret Lvnn of Kansas Uni- I auired bv law. versity and 'P if Homer K. Kbright j of Baker university at Baldwin. J "Essentials in College Education" was the topif of an address by J. V. CJleed of .Topeka. which closed the de- pat mental meeting. The collego department met in the First Baptist church at Ninth and I Jackson streets, and was presided over by Prof. L. D. Whittemore of Washburn college. BEWARE OF TEXTBOOKS Can Be Folfcnvcd Too. .Slavishly, Says SupxTintcSidciit Stout. It is not wise to follow a textbook, slavishly, when the text is inclined to overstress the easier parts of mathe matics, and to not lay enough stress on the harder parts. A. J. Stout, super intendent of the city schools of To peka, told the grade school depart ment of the teachers's convention this afternoon. In his address on "Common Sense in Teaching Arithmetic," Superintend ent Stout laid emphasis on the neces- i sity of teaching, in the easiest way andi in the easiest sequence, the things vvnicn win ne or oeneiu to tne pupu both in school and in life after school. Thruout the ages, people have been taught number work thru the handling of actual things, and the relation with that handling, of words and symbols. Superintendent Stout pointed out. He urged that the actual things which will bring arithmetical educa tion in practice in everyday life, be used as far as possible in teaching arithmetic in the grade schools. 'There are far simpler ways of teaching arithmetic than are now used. Superintendent Stout told his hearers. and ursed them to make use of these easier and simpler methods in 'their class work. The department meeting was pre sided over by Supt. A. 1 Senter, of Ottawa, and was held in tne mgn schooi building For many years, general instruc tion in the technique of study has been given both in reading and in the con tent subjects. A very serious limita tion to the instruction which has been given is the fact that it was very, gen eral. As a resuit, pupils are discov ered wth surprising frequency who are unable to read intelligently or to pre pare assignments effectively." JJean Wil-iam S .Uray, oi tne uni versity of Chicago, said in addressing the department on "Teaching Pupils to Study Effectively": "For several decades, reading was defined primarily in terms of oral in terpretation. Such matters as expres sion, pronunciation, emphasis and force received large consideration. So much time was devoted to oral read ing that little or no attention was given to many other phases of the subject. During recent years, however, a distinctly different view of reading instruction has developed. Reading is now defined by progressive teachers as a means of extending experience and of stimulating the thinking pow ers of boys and girls. This definition recognizes the large importance of si lent reading and intelligent interpre tation." Dean Gray outlined a program of reading instruction which lays empha sis on silent readii t and intelligent interpretation, and described specific methods of teaching which will se cure effective results. ence that we could not drink tea or coffee. When we had it for breakfast it put our nerves on edge. When we drank it at the evening meal, we tossed about in wakefulness most of the night. And then we found Postum, a pure cereal beverage, free from the harmful drug, caffeine, in tea and coffee. We liked the rich, satisfying flavor of Postum and also the better health which resulted.

One obstacle, however, loomed to interfere with the plan to re-indict Mrs. Obenchain. This obstacle was the pronounced hostility of the- grand jury toward the district attorney. It was claimed that the grand jury, which has demanded an investigation of Woolwine's office, may refuse to re indict Mrs. Obenchain on the ground that it was a fault of the prosecution she was not tried within the sixty-day limit after the first indictment. Should the grand jury refuse to re indict Mrs. Obenchain, another course was open to the district attorney. The other course was the issuance of a complaint charging Mrs. Obenchain with murder.

It is thru this quality we call vision that he becomes an artist. "When teaching is lifted from the commonplace and becomes a fine art, it is due to the inspirational qualities of the teacher and results can be eveluated in terms of ideal beauty. The nearer the approach to spiritual values, the higher the art." Other speakers who appeared be fore the department included J. A. Devlin of Kansas City. Mo.. Principal E. R.

The first on the list is an' endorsement of the appointment of the, school code commission, made by the last session of the legislature. To Remove Office From Politica One of the most discussed things before the meetings of the last con vention was the removal of the office of the state educational officer from jiolitics, thru the creation of the of fice of-state commissioner of educa tion instead of by popular election of the state superintendent of education.

8' THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 3, 1921 SHE BACKS DOWN Peggy Joyce Finally "Decides" Vot to Contest Divorce Suit. Evidence of Her Paris Trip Said 7 To Be Cause. Chicago, Nov. 3. Indications were today that "scandal fans" who may have been anticipating a feast from the trial of the Joyce divorce suit will be disappointed when the case comes to trial next Tuesday. A perfunctory hearing and a decree of annulment "without contest" is expected. It is rewarded as unlikely that "pretty VxKfgy" Hopkins Joyce will be in court to hear the decree separating her from James Stanley Joyce, Chicago million aire lumber man. Reports current today indicated that the "punch" had been taken out of the Joyce divorce by an agreement for settlement out of court. Terms of the settlement are saifl to provide that Eesery retain the more than $1,000,000 Worth of gowns, automobiles, jewels and real estate which Joyce showered upon her in the brief months of their life together. Joyce 1b reported to have agreed to pay all of Peggy's debts now outstand ing on her part. It is understood that Peggy will waive any claim of ali mony or to any cash settlement. The temporary alimony of $1,300 a month which Joyce is now paying will not be made permanent, it is reported. Photographs and information ob tained by Joyce concerning Peggy's recent activities in Paris are said to have been a factor in bringing about an agreement for settlement. KILXEls WITH SMALL RIFLE.

Bend over the top of the basin and cover your head with a heavy bath towel, so that no steam can escape. Steam your face for thirty seconds. Now lather a hot cloth with Woodbury's Facial Soap. With this wash your face thoroughly, rubbing the lather well into the skin with an up ward and outward motion.

Fashionable Footwear Will Answer All Your Shoe Problems If you want shoes that fit your feet perfectly and give you the maximum of comfort and yet are stylish, you should choose from our complete showing of "Fashionable Footwear." to Kansas a diversity not surpassed anywhere, a -d the Kansas farmer who will plan his farm management to in clude a proper acreage of the various crops best suited to his soils and re quirements may rest assured of pro duction well-nigh regardless of the weather, for Kansas has never known a season that was uniformly unfavor able to all crops. So we can safely say that the degree of success attained in agriculture in the Sunflower State de pends on the brains mixed with the business. Katsc More Livestock. "In any system of farming livestock, of course, must be prominent, as many of the crops we can raise in such abundance have only very limited markets except via the livestock route. We can only take full advantage of our opportunities in diversified agri culture with livestock, and we would be shortsighted more ways than one not to do so. We must look to the fertility of our soil, and it is replen ished most efficiently and economical ly thru the keeping of livestock. "Not only have improved methods and new crops reduced the chances of crop failure to a minimum, but the business of farming is less subiect to many of the hazards that used to con front it. or example, scientists have shown us how to control the dreaded hog cholera that in the past decimat ed our herds; it was not two decades ago that cattle scabies was prevalent over nearly half of the United States now it appears only as outbreaks in limited area3. Much the same is true of sheep scabies, of glanders and dou rine in horses, of many other diseases. Animal tuberculosis may be controlled. and contagious abortion of cattle is beginning to yield to scientific knowl edge. Results no less notable have been obtained in the plant kingdom. Black stem rust of wheat which took such heavy toll of the world's chief bread grain, may be avoided. Means of controlling the San Jose scale, a menace to the fruit industry, have been found, while other plant insects and animal diseases have been kept it out of our agriculture by the knowl edge anrl watchfulness of our scien tists. Due to their studies and experi ments improved strains of various crops have been, produced that out yield those commonly grown and the breeds of livestock have been bettered. Big Improvement in Farming. "Not only has the farmer's situation been vastly improved thru the discov eries of science as applied to agricul ture, .but his condition has been great ly ameliorated by better roads, rural free delivery of mail, the automobile, the motor truck, the telephone and other acquisitions of civilization. Judg ing from the past we may expect that agriculture will become more and more attractive as time goes on, and it ought to be the most dignified and profitable calling in which to engage, for it is the most essential. "Just now while the industry is suf fering from the after effects of war, would be a good time to alleviate our troubled minds by retrospection to whet our appreciation of the wonder ful age in which we are living and its beneficences. Take stock of your manifold blessings and be thankful that you are a Kansas farmer, rearing your family under environments that favor industry, wholesome living and homemaking, and I would encourage you to look to the future with opti mism and faith that agriculture will emerge from its present depression stronger and more self-reliant than ever before." FIGHT OPEN SHOP New York Milkmen Attack Truck Carrying Cream. Cleyeland Strikers Enjoined Following Several Blots. New York, Nov. S. Despite accep tance by 1000 striking milk wagon drivers of Mayor Hylan's terms of mediation, distributors served notice today of their intention of -waging a finish fight for the "open shop." Health Commissioner Copeland will hold separate conferences with both sides in the controversy today in an other attempt to effect a concilfation. More than one hundred men early today attacked three men loading trucks at a down town distributing station and police reserves arrested nine of the crowd after a chase. Two trucks loaded with milk and cream were stolen but were found half an hour later. Fifteen cans of cream were dumped into the street. Cleveland, O., Nov. 3.-r Mayor Wil liam S. Fitzgerald has called a con ference today of officials of the Telling-Belle Vernon company and CIo verdale Dairy company, principal milk distributors of the city, and union drivers, who are on strike against a 20 per cent wage cut made by the com panies. The mayor will attempt to force an agreement to arbitrate the wage question. Most families were without milk again today, as none was delivered, at homes except in cases where there are babies. Supplies at groceries proved entirely inadequate to meet the demand. Common Pleas Judge Maurice Bcr non this morning granted a temporary injunction restraining striking milk wagon drivers from interfering in any way with the delivery of milk here, after several outbreaks of violence had marked the start of the second day of the strike of eight hundred milk wagon drivers.

No man or woman who eats meat regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid which excites the kidneys, they become overworked from the strain, get sluggish and fan to filter the waste and poisons from the blood, then we get sick. Nearly all rheuma tism, headaches, liver trouble, nervous ness, dizziness, sleeplessness and uri nary disorders come from sluggish kid neys. The moment you feel a dull ache In the kidneys or your back hurts or if the urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or at tended by a sensation of scalding, stop eating meat and get about four ounces of Jad Salts from any pharmacy: take a, tablespoonful in a glass of water be fore breakfast and in a few days your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate the kidneys, also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus end ing bladder weakness. Jad Salts is inexpensive and cannot injure; makes a delightful effervescent lithia-water drink which everyone 3hould take now and then to keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood pure, thereby avoiding serious kidney complications.

Drought, has considerably damaged the wheat crop in western Kansas, eastern Colorado, and southwestern Nebraska,- according to F. A. Derby, who has recently returned from a trip thru that country. The low prices of wheat and corn are stimulating the "live-stock-feeding activities of the farmers in that section of the country, Derby says. Corn is selling at from 20 to 25 cents a bushel, and wheat at from 75 to 85 cents a bushel, and both f rains are being released slowly, as he farmers wait for an increase in prices, or feed their grain to stock.

Tere GiYen Special Pririleges, Says Federal Board Member. Chicago, Nov. S. Railroad workers have been granted special privileges by the transportation act and it is their duty and responsibility to main tain uninterrupted traffic on the rail roads, Ben W. Hooper, vice chairman of the United States railroad labor board, declared in an address before the Chicago Traffic club here today. "While the government thru the transportation act has conferred upon the carrier immense powers and privi leges, it has at the same time be stowed upon the employes the highest dignity and power ever conferred upon labor in any land." Hooper asserted. "Upon the theory the railroads are public utilities, .enjoying under their franchise a practical monopoly, the right of eminent domain and other great powers, the government has as sumed the right to regulate the car riers. "It seems to me that this theory is Just as applicable to th employes ot the railway as it is to the railway itself. "Does he not share with the railway Quell!

Hooper also attacked the proposal that the interstate commerce commis sion should fix wages as unsound.

TEACHERS IN GAME Politics Enter Annual Gather ing of Educators. prince starting second journey About the gube Miss L. E. Wooster Is Chief Topic for Discussion. SHE HAS BIG FOLLOWING Fred A. Seaman Tv'ill l'lay Prominent Part. Much High Wire Work in Evi dence This Year. BY A. L. SHULTZ. Politics is fitting Itself into the teachers' convention like a knitting needle at the ladies' aid society. In fact, there was a whole kes of home grown, carefully ased and well tested politics on tap for the ladies and gen tlemen of the school room when they arrived. To be sure, it all concerns itself with the old question of a new state superintendent. But the "dea is being considered Just as earnestly and discu.ssed just as warmly as tho some one had first thought of it night before last. Just the things which are to be done to and for Miss Lorraine E. Wooster is receiving prayerful and in some quarters rather profane consideration. There is a decided and positive rank element of the teach ers' convention which will greet Miss Wcoster with violent evidences of con tempt just as soon as she presents herself for public expression. On the other hand Miss Wooster's friends are out to capitalize her stand with Lucy (iaston againpt the ciparet. She has a following which applauds her de nunciation of the rouse box and the powder puff. Her pained and shocked expression when she learned that sometimes a goddess of the school room rolled her-own, will be fcood for certain votes in certain precincts. Miss Wooster in Limelight. It doesn't make much difference what happens at the four teachers conventions this week, there is little chancs that Miss Wooster will be dropped from discussion. There isn't a thin dime's worth of chance to take her out of the picture. Likewise it is a brick buildins against a postage stamp that she will be out and run ning again next year. The teachers organization dropped her from the programs. But the organization might as well have tried to change the weather forecast by whisllins thru a drain pipe. Miss Wooster's eyes are sot on a third term whether the teach ers like it or not. Playing the game of politics and Bene of the teachers do that very thing to a considerable extent it isn't wise to fool one's own self. Miss Wooster didn't come into the game of politics yesterday. She knows a thing of two about the tricks of the primary and it has so many tricks that the eld convention plan looks like a kin dergarten studying high school texts. Miss Wooster was in the front row wa'ching the convention operations and she has been in the primary up te) her eyes. She has a wide acquain tance, is resourceful and isn't a. bit afraid to take a chance. Once upon a time not so many, many months ago there was a chance that a school person might get a cabi net place by virtue of a prospective act of congress. Miss Wooster wanted it. In those days she poohed at a third term. It was such an idle thing in her busv voting life that she tossed it aside, shrugged her shoulders and kicke l at it. l'lTtl A. Seaman in Race. In those days when dreams seemed big and real and tangible Fred A. Sea man of Topeka was winking at the superintendent's job from a distance. Seaman was then in Mius Wooster's department. He read her public an nouncement one day that she wouldn't run again. Then he asked her about it. Both the printed and personal in terview tallied. Beanian got in. He had taught in the rural schools and knew the low down in the farmer districts from A. to Z. He had studied law, had Served two terms as county attorney of Wa liaunsee county. He had been cits superintendent and county superin tendent and as an assistant state su perintendent had helped organize the Kansas high schools. Looking at the thing by and large and thru a half dozen key holes. Seaman began to measure up for the job like a regular full grown he man plus the extras which come to one' via the school room route. For some months the grand lodge of the teaching profession which is af fectionately known as the "School masters' Club." had searched the woods and blown their whistles in search of some one who could and would walk bravely out and nail Miss Wooster's scalp on nearest district flag pole. They called loudly in 1920. But tho patriots answered not. Miss Wooster went back for a second term against a scattered and disorganized opposition. Shawnee county, which is as consistently Republican as Iceland is chilly, gave a majority against Miss Wooster. But there is only one Shaw nee county in Kansas and out in the coat oil lamp communities M.ss Woos ter's cries for reform were gospel preachin'. Seaman's candidacy slipped alonst so nicely and easily for a time that it looked as tho it would merely be necessary for him to stay at home and wait until he received an election cer tificate. Then Miss Wooster with tho born right of her sex changed her mind. She recalled a lot of unfin ished business that would need her time and attention at least until 1925. The Good Government club endorsed her right in the face of the record of the vote delivered to Miss Wooster here last year. Now Miss Wooster Is seemingly back and in the running just as big and gay as the announce ment of a three ring circus. Right here Miss Wooster's knowl edge of the science of the game is coming into evidence. Against an in dividual candidate her chance of suc cess looks slim. But a carefully se lected opposition of three or four can didates doesn't cost Miss Wooster much and causes an awful disturbance In the ranks of the opposition. Under such a condition she ought to win handily. High Wire Work. Now there is evidence that too much high wire work has made the school masters' club a bit dizzy. Miss Woo ster's possible opposition includes J. W. Miley of the Third district and cacgSiiw miwiuuiMu-jm..J-.;-. L i v j t "J: f iS. flie Prince of Wales ana the British dreadnaught Renown, on which he has embarked. The Prince of Wales, home but a ehort time from his fits trip to many parts of th plobe. has left England for India his first stop on another globe-trotting jaunt. His visit to India at this time of unrest there is another indication of the prince's popularity and fear lessness, British leaders point out. The heir to Britain's throne will visit Canada and possibly the U. during his trin. J. H. Clement from the Fifth. Seaman asserts he is going thru to the finish. He is making speeches, writing letters and working as tho the town meeting house were afire. Surely there is lots of politics in the convention this year. Miss Wooster has been denied the privilege of mak ing a speech. But it isn't at all certain that she isn't sitting in some quiet corner laeighing as she -vatches' the schoolmasters' club scramble its own eggs. GREAT FOR ECZEMA AND OLD SORES JARRELL AQ!fS GRIME On Eve of Departure for Cali fornia, Press Club President Says He Has "Murdered" William Sliakespcre Xo Corpus DitectL "I am guilty of murder and ara earning the evidence to California." These startling words were spoken at near midnight last night by Frank Jarrell, publicity agent for the Santa Fa system, as he, w.th squared shoul ders and carrying a ntavj biv down Kansas avenue last night, head ed in the general direction of the Rantn station. The murder Jarrell spoke of was that of one William tsnaKespeare, now dead for several hundred years, and tha evidence he carried with him was the scenario at a version of the graveyard scene i "Hamlet," to be produced by the Topeka Press club at its annual Frying Pan dinner Decem ber 16. Jarrell has more than a local reputation as an impresario of shows of this nature. When plans for the 1921 show were being made the trip to California by the most needed man in the club be came an all important subject. This was finally disposed of, by the re mainder of the committee deciding to write and produce three of the acts if Jarrell would write and produce the graveyard scene, taking one of the principal parts. Consequently, as a major part of his final preparations for his trip, Jarrell has been collabor ating with the members of his own special troupe and completing the MSS for his show. En route to California and en route returning to Topeka the first of De cember, Jarrell will be making him self letter perfect in his special part. The other three members of the cast, Joe Nickell of the Capital, Emmett George, secretary to GovernorAllen, and E. D. Keilmann, telegraph editor of The State Journal, will be looking after th details of scenery and cos tumes and at the same time learning their "stuif." The first rehearsal will be held in celebration over the Santa Fe press agent's safe return. "'If I did not murder Shakespeare enough to suit you fellows, just go ahead and murder htm some more." were his final instructions, as the im presario left Topeka last night. Thibet. Nemuil.

Mrs. George Tegarden, 915 Third Street, Mounds ville. W. Va. How many young girls suffer as Mrs. Tegarden did and do not know where to turn for advice or help. They often are obliged to earn their living by toiling day in and day out no matter how hard the pain they have to bear. Every girl who suffers in thi3 way should try Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and if she does not get prompt relief write to the Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Massachusetts, about her health. Such letters are held in strict confidence.

It took three high salaried state at torneys, live days and required an ex pense account of $438.86 to go to Washington to see about having hearing date set for advancing the Howat appeal before the United States supreme court. After spending three days m the national capital, the law yers neither secured an advancement of the case nor did they present a mo tion to advance or return home with any definite information a.s to when they might return and be heard on the motion to advance. Usually a motion to advance is pre sented in about two to three minutes. I The general rule of lawyers who rep resent private clients even public In terests at times is to ask some at torney in the city where the court is sitting to present the motion. But the Howat case called for three lawyers instead of one. It required a trip half way across the continent and back. Now the state has neither secured an advancement nor learned when a mo tion for advancement may be heard. The state has, however, paid the $438.86 expense account plus the sal aries of the state officials amounting to about $2a or $250 for the time they were absent. To Look After State's Interests. Richard J. Hopkins, who seems' to have made the trip on his own motion and to see that no one took advantage of the state's interests, turned in an expense account of $163.03 for the jaunt. Judge James A. McDermott of the Industrial court also made the trip. His expenses were $138.91. Bax ter D. McClain, attorney for the labor court, also went. His expenses were $136.92. Judge McDermott and McClain went at the direction of Governor Allen. When their expense vouchers were presented to X. A. Turner, state audi tor, the letters from the governor were attached. This course is in keeping with a rule laid down by the auditor to the effect that Junkets by members or boards and commissions under di rection of the governor, must show that their travels were approved by the state executive. To See What Might Be Done. The governor's letter to McClain asks him to go to Washington "to see what may be done for the advancement of the Howat case upon the docket of the supreme court and for a confer ence with Moorfield Storey concern ing features of the case." Storey, a Boston lawyer, had volunteered his services in the case. He might have rendered service by presenting the somewhat mythical motion to advance, j Instead the three lawyers went to j Washington to talk to him- at expense probably equal to employment of private counsel. In a letter to Judge McDermott the governor asks that he also look after the Howat motion, also confer with Storey, the immigration bureau and the department of labor. The public hasn't been advised as to these confer ences. Neither would Judge McDer mott or McClain discuss the Howat mion today. "Who argued the advancement mo tion before the supreme court?" was asked of Judge McDermott and Me Clain while the two were in Judge Mc Dermott's private office today. Neither answered. "Did you present it?" was asked of Judge McDermott. "You iwon't get any Information from me," was the reply. "Did you argue it?" was asked of McClain. "That's what I was sent there for." "Then you appeared before the court?" "Ask the court." "How long did you talk?" "I didn't say I talked." "Did you?" No answer. "Was the case advanced?" Again no answer. From authoritative sources it stated that the case was not advanced. Neither was it on the docket or in a position for argument as to advance- j ment. Neither did either of the three lawyers appear before the court dur- j ing any of its sessions while they were in Washington October 19-24. Under the rules of the court it appears that the case could not have hpen pre sented. The lawyers came home with out knowing when thev would be even a hearing or when the appeal proper might be considered. May Come XTp Xext Year It may be that in January or Feb ruary the court docket will be in such condition that a motion to advance the Howat appeal may be filed. At that time the lawyers may again return to Washington. Or they may follow the established custom and ask someone in Washington to present their motion for them. Both Judges McDermott and Mc Clain resented being asked regarding the case. McDermott made clear that he didn't appreciate reporters visiting his office and asking questions which he didn't want to answer and didn't extend an invitation to return. Mc- Clain appeared so thoroly convinced that the whole matter was none of the public's business that he left the room during the interview. It was con cluded, tho, when reporters followed him to the corridor.

I Hair that loses its color and lustre, or -when it fades, turns gray, dull and lifeless, is caused by a lack of sulphur in the hair. Our grandmother made up a mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur to keep her locks dark and beautiful. and thousands of women and men who value that even color, that beautiful dark shade of hair which is so at- i tractive, use only this old-time recipe, j rsowaaays we get this famous mix- ture improved by the addition of other i ingredients by asking at any drug store for a bottle of "Wveth's Saae and Sulphur Compound," which dark- ens the hair so naturally, so evenly, that nobody can possibly tell it has been applied. You just dampen a I sponge or soft brush with in and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. By morning the Erray hair disappears: but what delights the ladies with Wveth's Sage and Sulphur Compound is that, be sides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also brings back the gloss and lustre and gives it an appearance of abundance.

SKIRTS DOWN ONE INCH Fashion decrees that skirts come closer to the ground, but that is no reason why one need buy new clothes.

Adv. work of the civics department, talked about what the department may hope to accomplish during the club year. One of the most interesting of talks was given by Mrs. J. F. Jarrell during the home economics hour. Her Sub ject was, 'The Intangible Quality."' Mrs. Jarrell told of the importance of what seems intangible and yet what is really the tangible things. "The very things which seem so tangible as the preparation of meals," said the speak er, "all have back of them that intan gible motivation, the love of beauty and desire to promote good fellow ship." Mrs. Jarrell told of the child which spilled ink on the carpet and was slapped by the mother. The smoldering reserftment of the child for the injustice of the act was far more tangible than the very evident ink stain on the carpet which would prob ably fade before the child's resent ment did. "Contentment is intangible in that it can neither be physically heard nor felt and yet the cat purrs and--one actually feels contentment." The speaker illustrated her point with the story of two families, one wealthy, where contentment did not 'exist, and the other, a poor family and where harmony and contentment were really telt in the home."
