One frreir.an was killed and another seriously Injured, while ten or twelve more were slightly hurt and an unknown numb( of the hundred thousand pect.tors who throntred the burning districts slightly hurt by fall ing bricks, burning timbers or sparks. The fire for a time threatened to assume virtually unlimited propor tions and every piece of fire ficrhting apparatus within five miles was called out in a series of ten alarms. Fire I tan Away From Fighters. "The rapidity with which the fire spread was astounding.' Marshall, Buckley, assistant fire chief, said. "The fire actually seemed to run from us." That the original blaze from which the conflagration grew possibly was of incendiary oripin was the statement of Shirley P. High, city fire attorney, who early today announced the arrest f an unnamed man on information supplied by M. T. Schiff. president of the confectionery specialty company, "o. 521 West Jackson boulevard, where the fire started. Won't Give Suspect's Name. Mr. High refused to divulge the name of the man arrested but said that he was being questioned regard ins threatening- letters Mr. Schiff said the man, a former employe, had sent to him. Mr. Schiff told Mr. High the man was discharged when he became incensed over refusal to permit him to purchase stock in the company and within the past two months had made a. series of threats. Mr. Schiff placed his personal loss at J 50.000. Mr. High summoned several of his aides while the fire was at its height and said an investigation would be be gun immediately. He placed the total loss at from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000. Buildings Aid in Checking It. Traversing the main burned area, the Metropolitan west side elevated line today was seriously handicapped in delivering its thousands of patrons to the downtown district, as was the Aurora and Klgin electric interurban which also used the four-track struc ture which v. as caught in the midst of the fire.

Seven great structures, including the siteen storv Burlington building, gut ted. Nearly fifty firms burned out. More than JO.noo thrown out of work. The Irxierty Ioss. Ktimated bv officials at between $r.. oon.ooo and $10,000,000. Other unofficial estimates considerably higher. The Casualties. One fireman, James J- McGovcrn, kilted and scores injured. The Probable Cause. Incendiarism. Frank Carsey, a chauffeur, placed under arrest. of the burned district but would have afforded but little protection had the wind veered the sweep of the flames toward the main business section. Insurance Patrol Man Killed. Jame McGovern of insurance patrol No. 1 was the fireman killed. He was 1-iit by a falling wall and died at a hospital. Lieut. William Everett of engine company No. 95, was injured. probably fatally, wnen ne was Kirutu by a falling piece of tile, knocked to the ground, and then hit again by an other piece of tile, which inflicted in ternal injuries. Fipeman Alfred Samuelson of the same company also was hit by tile and injured. Heat Conquers Police Guard. Heat from the burning building across the street cracked out the win dows of the Mercantile Trust and Savings bank before the Burlington building itself was afire a heavy po lice guard was thrown, about the bank, but was driven away quickly when the building caught fire. Cash and securities valued at approximate ly $6,000,000 are said to be in the bank's vaults and it may be several days before they can be examined. The Burlington building caught fire at about fhe eighth story and burned up and down. No streams of water were powerful enough to fight the fire in the upper stories. Mater Fills Van Buren Tunnel. Spectators quickly jammed the street about the burning distriot The flamea leapeI high and. putfeJ by the gusts of wind, were visible for more than twenty mi'cs The Van Buren street tunnel of the Chicago surface lines, under the Chi cago river, debouches just at the burned area and for hours a stream of water poured into the tunnel, which was filled to street level. The uniori depot rail terminal was not reached by the flames but postal em ployes hurriedly removed all mail when it appeared the fire could not be restricted. After being questioned for several hours, the man arrested in connection with the incendiary theory waa re leased. The police said he apparently was not implicated. Fire Costs 25,000 Persons Jobs. The new Burlington building with stood a heat so terrific that the fire escape on the side facing the flames across the street became red hot and bent of its own weight. The orna mental tile on the building crumbled j in the heat and the hot blast, break- ing thru the windows, destroyed the interior decorations in many rooms. It was estimated that more than 1 25.000 persons were made jobless thru the fire. The Mermtile Trust and Savings bank later announced that the cash and securities in its vaults was amply protected by heavy steel, cement and asbestos walls, and that it was quite safe. Arrangements were made to have another bank take care of its business until new quarters could be obtained.

Will Limit Speecbes for and Against ext Tuesday. REJECT ANOTHER AMEK9MENT Contest Looms Again on Wood row Wilson Question. Baruch and Other Wilson Sup porters Fight Senate Reader. J Washing-ton, March 15. For the third time the senate defeated today j ait effort to amend the four-power treaty to permit participation of out side nations in international eonfer- ence over controversies arising in the Pacific. j An amendment for that purpose by Senator Pittman, Democrat, Nevada, 1 similar to two on the same subject re I jected yesterday was defeated fifty to I twenty-eight. The treaty opponents j indicated, however, that they would bring the proposal forward-again later j in the form of a reservation in the I hope that they might secure the sup j port of a number of senators who ob i ject to all amendments as a matter Iof principle. Ratification Seems Sure. The party alignment on the amend ments was virtually the same as that which yesterday defeated similar amendments. Except for a temporary absentee the same few Republicans and Democrats left the majority of the respective parties Ratification of the treaty by the end of next week appeared assured today when leaders of both sides reached an agreement to limit debate, starting next Tuesday. The attempt to amend the four power treaty so that outside nations would be called into consultation re garding Pacific controversies was re newed in the senate today despite the defeat yesterday of two amendments for that purpose. A new amendment more limited in scope than those already rejected was presented by Senator Pittman, Demo crat, Nevada. It provided that in any future controversy outside nations having interests ii the Pacific would be called into conference for consid eration of the subject. Growing dissension among Demo cratic senators, split on the treaty, was reported today to be causing a serious ruction in the higher councils of the Democratic party which threat ens to lead to another fight for na tional control between the pro-Wilson and anti-Wilson forces. With Senator Oscar W. Underwood and William Jennings Bryan pulling for the treaty and Democratic leaders still counted as adherents of former President Wilson pulling against it, the ill feeling already engendered be tween the opposing forces was said to be spreading far beyond the senate chamber. A NEW FIRM HERE Selia j nen Manufacturing Co. to Open Plant in Topeka. Engle Thermo Fire Control Is Chief Article Made. The Schaynen Manufacturing com pany, incorporated wTith a capital of $50,000, received a charter today 'to do business in Kansas. It is planned to have a plant in Topeka and an other in Kansas City in which five dif ferent articles will be manufactured, according to E. C. Hayes, first vice president. The leading article which the com pany will manufacture, according to Hayes, is the Engle thermo fire and refrigerator control. Attached to the doors of fireproof buildings, when a fire starts a certain heat operates to move the control so that the door closes and the fire cannot spread. On the same principle it can be used in packing plants and cold storage house, where, when the door of a cooling room is left open, a certain warmth operates to move the control and close the door. The officers of the new company are: George W. Seitz. Salina, presi dent; E. C. Hayes. Topeka, first vice president; R. D. Teasley, Topeka, sec ond vice president; W. R. Walker, To peka. secretary, am: J. C. Baughman. Los Angeles, treasurer. The officers, with Mrs. Cora B. Hayes, compose the board of directors.

Losses May Reach $150,000, Says Report to Office Here. Arkansas City, March 16. The Traders' State bank of this city failed to open this morning and a sign on the door reads, "In the hands of the state bank commissioner." Capital and surplus of the bank is $75,000. V. E. Creighton is the president. It is said the bank has $160,000 worth of bad paper on hand. An examination of the bank's condition is now being made by the state bank department. Deposits are guaranteed under the state bank guaranty fund. Hugh E. Wright, deputy bank com missioner, this morning took charge of the bank, pursuant to a resolution passed yesterday by the board of di rectors. This step was taken, it is an nounced, to protect the depositors. The reason for the bank's failure is given by Mr. "Wright as inability to collect outstanding loans. The amount of loss cannot yet be determined but as the bank is operated under the state guaranty law even tho the loss is in excess of the capital and surplus, the depositors will be protected, Mr. Wright said today. Losses of the Traders" State bank will exceed $75,000, according; to esti mates today by the state banking de partment. The loss may reach m. to tal of $150,000. The Institution has been in trouble for some time and W. W. Olson, the present cashier, had been placed In charge in an effort to overcome financial difficulties. Trou ble of the bank is asserted to be due to speculations by -officers of the bank. Creighton is believed to have inested heavily in oil securities, H. E. Wright and J. H. Armstrong, bank examiners, are in charge of the Arkansas City bank. The state de partment has been preparing for some time to take over the bank in event It could not meet shortages. Some time ago R. J. Hayden re signed as cashier of the bank. The resignation of Hayden is said to have been due to demands by the state de partment. The Traders' State was organized In 1909. It had a capital of $50,000 and surplus and profits of $20,000. Its de posits were in excess of $200,000. The institution was under the state bank guaranty law and its depositors are protected by the state bank guaranty fund. Principal corerspondents of the bank are: Hanover National, New York; Central and Commercial Na tional, Chicago; Commerce Trust c.Tnpany, Kansas City, and Fidelity Stste bank. Wichita.

She could forgive Berry for being- a flutter be cause he was, so much younger and he was bashful. The reporters pleaded with Berry to be a good boy and not spoil things.

The Body May Be floating Be hind a Huge Log. Police ,and county officers this af ternoon were searching the Kaw river for the body of Manuel Rodante, a Mexican boy about 14 years old, who was drowned about 10 o'clock this morning at the south end of the Santa Fe railroad bridge. According to some small boys, who apparently were the only witnesses to the accident, young Rodante was sal vaging driftwood from the water and was standing on a wooden platform that extends out from the shore for about ten feet. They said he had tied a rope around huge log ad -wrapped the other end of the rope around his hand to obtain a better hold. But the swift current, they said carried the log down stream and dragged Manuel from the platform. Another boy, it was said, threw Man uel a rope, which he seized, but the force of the current under the log was too much for Manuel's strength, and he was forced to drop the rope thrown from the shore. He fell in the water and sank at once. Sheriff Robert Miler. Kilmaurs King, of the Foster 'Humane society and a squad of policemen headed by Frank Leech, chief of detectives, hur ried to the river bank in motor cars. They drove as far as Grantville, searching the river along the way but without success. Officials at Law rence and other towns below Topeka were notified to be on the lookout for the body. The river is high and swift, making the search more difficult. Officers be lieve that if the Mexican boy really tied the rope to his hand that his body wiil still be dragging behind the log and perhaps eventually be recovered. But in the event his hand becomes dis engaged from the rope it is thought he would sink to the bottom, in which case recovery of the body will be de layed for several days. Manuel lived at 21G East Crane street with I. is mother and step father. STATE BANKERS TO MEET Kansas Investment Problems Will Koc-p lt100 Financiers Busy.

The part you published in The State Journal last Saturday was fine and I hope that when you hve finished publication of the Gospel of St. Mark you will continue to publish other Onpela of the Bible. You will, no doubt, be com mended by all Christians, regard less of what church they attend, also by all other good American citixens who believe in the Gospels of Christ. All persons should be glad to read the greatest story' the world has ever known as published in The State Journal. My mother has often paid: "The old newspapers publish most anything and everything but the Gospel." I guess she was nearly right. In publishing the Gospels you really act as a missionary to persons who otherwise never would see them. I hope that all other newspapers will follow your lead and thus guide the people track to the Bible. Respectfully vourw. ROT U IJAM5. 711 Locust Street ft

NO COAL DEFICIT Anthracite Miners Look for. a lockout But ot a Tie lp. Say Strike Wont Last Thru the Simmer .Months if Called. HARD COAL SUPPLY IS GOOD Strike In Pennsylvania Fields Seems Nearly Certain 'ov. Operators To Be Faee4 With Nineteen Demands hy Employes New York. March 15. Anthracite miners and operators were prepared today to begin negotiations for -a. new wage agreement to take the place of the two-year contract which expires at the end of this month. The nineteen demands of the miners, formulated at their convention in Shamokin. Ia., in January and rati fied by the Inten. .tionul convention at Indianapolis last month, are to be formally presented to the coal oper ators and explained in detail by offi cers of the union. The operators are expected to Im mediately take them under consider ation and make a statement of their position on i-'riday. The miners are a&king for a 2 per cent increase in contract rates, among other things, while the .mine owners are on record as favoring1 a decrease below the pres ent working basis. 1 It is not expected that an agree ment will be reached brfore the end of the month and in that event the scale ewnmlttee of the hard coal work era is under instructions of the Sham okm convention to order a suspension of mining unless a satisfactory agree ment is in sijeht. The national policy committee of the mine workers has the power to set aside- a suspension, if it sees fit, but. according to union leaders here, such action is not likely. A suspension in the hard coai fields of Pennslyvania is certain, many tlVnk, if it comes i is expeeted there will be complete ces sation of production. A shortage of anthracite coal is not anticipated un less the expected suspension should run into the summer, which is not looked for by the miners. There is a fair supply of coal on hand both in the big storage yards of the mining companies and in the larger retail yards of the east, it was said. The miners enter the joint con ference determined they said, to re sist wit h all their power any effort to reduce their present wage scale. FEBHt ARY EXPORTS ARE DOWN.

WONT REMJVEJJAR TRACKS Planning Board Combat Anti-Boulc-vard Petition Idea. The city planning board, following its regular meeting at noon todav. is sued a statement designed to combat the impression which is being "fea tured" by opponents of the Eiehth avenue boulevard project that the establishment of the boulevard would result in the removal of the street car line which serves the residents in the vicinity of Gage park. The planning board asserts in the strongest terms that the project will not interfere in any way with the Gage park car line. Petitions against the project are being circulated based on the idea that a. boulevard on Eighth avenue, leading from the heart of the city to Gage park, the chief recreation center of Topeka, would mean the elimination of the Gage park line and make the residents of the intervening territory walk to town or bujr auto mobiles. "The petitions may be based on the efforts of the city planning board to have the unused tracks of the Eighth avenue line from Jackson street to Buchanan street removed. The ac tion does not contemplate any inter ference with the Gage park line itself. The Eighth avenue line has been un used for more than a year." it was stated after the meeting of the board tod a j'. HE'D "CUT ARMY MORE Washington, March 14.

Aside from the distinction he acquired dur ing the Populist reign in Kansas in the early '90s, when he -was .nicknamed "The Bald Hornet of Neosho." CoL J. M. Dunsmore. who died at iiis home here on March 12. came back Into the limfliirht t vfur aeo when he was a candidate for mayor In the famous citv election here in which a complete ticket of women headed by Mrs. Abby Howe Forest, swept all before them. nnnamnrc. n veteran of many fierce j political struggles, saw the "hand writing on tne wau. huwc.c, before the ballots were cast, withdrew as a candidate. Mrs. Forest had the field to herself in the mayoralty contest. Subsequently, Colonel Dunsmore was appointed city attorney by Mayor Forest He was the onlv' man, aside from tile marshal, on the Thayer official municipal staff at the time of his death. Colonel Dunsmore was the Populist speaker of the Kansas house of rep resentatives, during the historic siege of 1S93. when both Republicans and Populists! claimed a majority of mem bers, and each party elected a speak er. George L. Douglas was chosen as speaker by the Republicans and for days this chaotic condition prevailed. Finally, on February 15. 1893, after Gov. L. D. Lewellyn had attempted to call out the militia to oust the Repub licans, war broke out. The Populists attempted to lock the Republicans out of the hall, and bar them from the state house. En masse the Republi can members marched thru the guards, battered the heavy oak doors down with a sledge hammer, and took possession, the Populists retiring to the basement. After a two-day siege in which the Republicans obtained food by hauling it up to the windows w ith ropes, an armistice was declared. On February 26, the supreme court decided the Republican speaker duly elected and the warfare ended. On February 15, 1921, a reunion of il-.e "Douglas house" was held in Topeka. WEATHER.

Belton Kennedy was slain by tae "two roughtly dressed men," she said she saw fleeing from the scene of the crime. Defense Attorney MaoDonad, in his address to the jury in her trial for the murder, today defended Arthur Burch, co-defendant m the case. Having attacked the prosecution theory that Mrs. Obenchain was. a "woman scorned" MacDonald shifted to the second line of defense, that Mrs. Obenchain cannot be guilty because, he claimed. Burch was not the slayer. MacDonald sought to show by the testimony of the prosecution's own witnesses that Burch did not' com mit the murder. He contended that the prosecution's evidence when studied carefully, revealed absolute corroboration of Mrs. Obenchain's story, that the slaying was done by the "two roughly dressed men.'.' MacDonald's defense of Burch fol lowed his hot attack on the theory that Mrs. Obenchain was "woman scorned," who plotted the murder because Ken nedy refused to marry her. By re moving the motive attributed to Mrs. Obenchain by the prosecution, he said, the way was clear for a quick acquittal DRILLER ASKS FOR $2,065 Jeff Robinson Brings Action Against Elmluirst Investment Co.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH 15, 1922 Sport Notes BY HAROLD HENDERSON. The Topeka hitch school basketball team is in better condition for the state tournament, which will be held Friday and Saturday at Lawrence than W was for the district tournament test week,, according to J. E. R. Barnes, coach. Barnes attributes the defeat of his aggregation to overcon fidence. The members of the first quad who will make the trip to Law rence are: McLaughlin, Breithaupt. Darrow. Blanckenbecker, Brewster, Carr. Edmiston and Boyd. Kansas State Xormal and College of Emporia will hold a dual track meet Fr.day night at the normal gymnasium. This indoor contest will be put on to test the abundant material of both schools. The pole vault is one of the strongest departments of the Normal track team. McKnown. Normal star pole vaulter, cleared the bar at twelve feet in the Kansas Citv Athletic club meet. His closest competitor was Hamilton. of Missouri university. Other men who will represent the teachers in the affair will be: 40-yard dah, Hayden. Koblnson; 220-yard dash, Wisemeyer; 440-yard dash, Stew art and Shearer; 880-yard dash. Lane, Summers; mile.

Quigley. veteran sport official, is now looking forward to the opening of the American league for the coming season. Altho Quigley has considered retiring from the of ficiating in the big leagues for the past few years, he has decided to postpone this action for at least another twelve months. An intra-university wrestling tour nament, similar to the pan-Hellenic basketball tournament, is being con sidred by Coarh O. B. Patrick of the department of physical education at Kansas university. The university will probably compete in schools. It Is planned to hold the meet in April. Myron E. Fuller will succeed James Phelan as head football coach at Mis souri university.. Fuller graduated from Tale in 1911. Henry Garrity. who, will be graduated from Princeton this spring, will succeed Jerry Jones as assistant football coach and head baseball coach at the university. Prospects for a winntng baseball team at Kansas university seem bright. Forty candidates for the nine have been undergoing rigorous train ing for a month. -Men from the 1921 squad, who have- answered the call for candidates are: Captain Bloomer. Karrell. Boyd, Murphy, Henzel, Cus ter, liody, Frazier and Lashley. The McPherson college basketball team probably had the most success ful season of any quintet in the Kan sas conference as compared with the records for the previous season. The team was perched in second place at the close of the present season. In 1921 it was next to the cellar. The team scored an average of eleven fieid goals a game and registered 325 points against its opponents' 206. Since Forret C. Allen, director of athletics of Kansas university, has deemed it inadvisable to play a post season game with Missouri to decide tho Missouri valley conference cham pionship. 'ie Tigers are attempting to prove tin? fact that Missouri has a slight edge on the Kansas five. The Missoui-ians piled up 626 points to their opponents' 372. The stadium bug has caught another school. Iowa university is planning a stadium, which will seat 4 3,000 persons. The Missouri university track team will hob! a dual track meet with the Vniversity of California April 15 at Berkeley, Cal. I Kansas university's hopes to win the j dual indoor track meet with Missouri at Kansas City, Friday night, received j a blow, when it was announced that Paul O'Leary. star quarter-miler for the Jayhawkers. might be unable to enter the contest. He injured his leg last summer and a recent fall on the i lee renewed the injury. j The St. Benedict's college quintet will close its season Saturday night with a game with the Atchison Ameri can Legi.m. The college expects to gain membership in the Kansas con- ference later in the year. I The Atchison high school five has at Inst made a-record. It scored 140 points in four tournament games last week. Basketball teams will represent twelve high schools at the Washing ton county tournament, which will be held Friday and Suturday at Hanover. The Central Y. M. C. A. volleyball team, champion "Y" team of Kansas for 1921. will enter the state Y. M. C. A. tournament to be held Saturday at Salina. DERBY GETS PRODUCERS' OIL Tale of Woe In Investments of Stock by Kansas Nearly Completed. St. Marys, Kan., March 15. Wind ing up s tense financial situation which last summer upset the lustrous visions of fleeced victims in a score of towns over three Btates, the Derby Oil company of Wichita announced this week its purchase of all gas f ill i ing stations owned by the defunct i Producers' Consolidated Oil company of Kansas City. Last spring the Producers' Consoli dated Oil company, thru ideas pro moted by its president, R- G. Sibley, then a government cierk in Washing ton, enlisted the financial backing of hundreds of citizens in Kansas, Mis souri and Nebraska thru the selling of oil and gas coupon books, and erected fiiling stations in more than twenty five towns In the three states. Three months after the organiza tion's formation Sibley disappeared from general offices at Kansas City. Approximately JS0.000 from the treas ury and a company car also disap peared. Two weeks later the corpora tion Slipped into the bankruptcy court and a receivership. Sibley is yet to be found. 1-ast v-eek the station properties were placed on the auction block at the Kansas City offices and sold in bulk to the highest bidders. In purchasing the Kansas stations, the Derby oil company of Wichita bid $32,200 for the ten properties, which wa accepted. The stations in th e state are situated at St. Marys, Dodge City, Seneca. lieloit, Marysville. Osage City. McPherson, Bonner Springs, Sabetha and Kinsley. The Kansas stations in the Derby purchase averaged about 3,000 Indi vid ua.!ly. DOGS COST MORE THAN COWS. Mlsourians Give $250 to Buy Mound, But Won't Pay $10O for Cow. Poplar Bluff, Mo.. March 15. The only livestock market in this state that has not shown a slump in the past few months is the market on noun dogs. If anything this market has increased, especially this winter. Houn' dogs are in demand. Prices may be low on cattle, hogs, mules, sheep and other livestock, but the merry farmer, who chases the 'coons at night, must have his reliable dog, and when it comes to bidding for him the sportily inclined tiller of the soil makes the sky the limit. He may be short of money for other things, but if he is of the Ozark- Mountains he cannot be outclassed, when it comes to digging down in his jeans for $250 for a dog. That price, too, is reason able for a good 'un. Many of the dogs have a keen sense for 'coons and 'possums, and are de cidedly fast. A farmer, or moun taineer, won't have a dog that doesn't meet the standard or won't learn. Even the pups sell for from $50 to $150 before they are trained. By comparison, it takes a mighty good milch cow to bring $S0. Services for Civil War Ve. Thursday. Ottawa, Kan., March 15. E. S. 1 Clark, 77, who died at the home of a daughter, Mrs. O. I Garlinghouse. at Iola, was a Franklin county pioneer, settling on a farm in Appanoose town- i ship in the early '60's. He served thruout the Civil war.

Uaskin, Director, Washing ton, 1. r. The decision of the supreme court In the Consolidated Gas case Is beins hailed with approval in business and financial circles. The sweeping char acter of the decision lies in its estab-isb-mcnt of the principle that the property of public utility concerns Is entitled to a fair return of income. It should not have required the deci sion of a court to establish such a principle. But since the principle has been given legal sanction, what dif ference will it make? The public al ways has been willing that public util ity concerns should make fair re turn on their investment. All the trouble has arisen over the question of what constitutes a fair return. Fre quently it has happened that the pub lic has felt that it was paying on an extravagant amount of water and that it was being figured out of a square deal. What is needed is a supreme court decision which will guarantee a fair return to the public for the money it spends as well as to the utility. 'The public will continue to insist on this until it gets it or It will take possession of the utility and Derate it itself. In the public discussion of the wages of the working woman, various sums have been named as necessary and proper to be expended for her clothes. The proof of the pudding is in the eating. Nobody knows so much abmlt the matter as does the working woman herself. She is entitled to r spend such amount as she chooses if she can get it. And, after all, since women have been made the political equals of men,, why should they not be permitted to occupy the aama eco nomic position? What would "ie thought of an attempt to prescribe xnen's expenditures? Congress has appeared unwilling to fake hints on the bonus bill dropped by the president and his secretary of the treasury- Now it is reported that Mr. Harding has declared point blank that he will not sign the bill as it stands. PIBLIC EXPENSES. Before the war the $1,000,000,000 congress was viewed with alarm. To day, according to Eliot Wadsworth, assistant secretary of the treasury the government is committed to more than double that sum in obligations and fixed charges that can not be re duced. This 2, 065. 000,000 is made up of J975, 000,000 for interest on the public debt, J3S8.000.000 sinking fund and other debt charges, 1450.000,000 r disabled veterans' relief and $252. 300.000 for pensions. These total nearly SO per cent of the estimated cost of the national govern ment, leaving but 40 per cent upon which savings may be effected. The array and navy departments and good roads take 26 per cent, leaving 14 per cent for all other government serf Ices. The naval limitation should permit a very material reduction in the navy oost and. if accompanied by a reduc tion ki the army strength, these two Hems could contribute moat notably tc 1S.l-4cJ.ior1 of expenses and taxation. Dut It must be apparent that failure of the eenst to ratify tha four-por er treaty will have the effect of casting; all plans for reduction of armaments on land or sea Into the discard. The It per cent for general admin istration can no doubt be cut much more than has yet been attempted. mainly thru the proper working of j the budget system and the curtail-1 merit and elimination of superfluous war-time employes, agencies and bu reaus. Unfortunately there Is a trend to' rrorease rather than diminish the federal grants In aid practice which targalns with the states for matched appropriations, but in reality loads up ths federal service with new Jobs and expenses out of proportion to probable benefits. It will be seea from ths foregoing how difficult It Is for an administra tion, even honestly desirous of reduc ing expenses, to deliver the goods. What is true In the nation largely Is true In the state. If those who com posed last week's convention of tax payers were entrusted with the power to carry out their own program, it is dnubtfiri "that they would accomplish any great good to the people. LEGION" EMPLOMENT DAY. One of the most beneficial plans ever presented for assisting ex-service men of Kansas is the plan under way at the present time, the object of which is the finding of permanent eraploy- j ment for every ex-service mam in the state. I Governor Allen is assisting the I American Legion in its efforts to find J places for all men who are out of work; and has essued a proclamation setting aside Monday, March 20, as American Legion employment day in Kansas. According to figures compiled by Frank E. Samuet. adjutant of the Kansas department of the American Legion, the total number of unem ployed ex-service men in Kansas at the present time is 4.000. The total number in Kansas at any time during the winter was between 7,000 and 9.000. During the winter the Legion has furnished permanent jobs to 1,000 ex service men and the total number of temporary jobs secured was 3,000. Kansas conditions have been much better than those in many other states, due to the fact that Kansas is anagricultural community. Most of the unemployment in the United States has existed in the cities and in the vicinity of the oil fields. It has always been a problem to take care of the transients and unskilled men. The slogan adopted by the Kansas Legion is, "Tell the floaters and transients to go home if they ex pect consideration." Kansas can and will take care of her own ex-service men in the 3G0 communities where Legion posts are in operation and the job will be com pleted in a manner that will bring credit to the Legion. The American Legion posts of Kan sas are to be complimented for the splendid work they have done to date and everyone who knows the aims and purposes of this organization knows that they will always be readv and willing to assist in any good cause. Every Kansan is proud of ths rec ord made by the Kansas soldiers and they will have occasion to be just as proud of their record In work at home. The United States employment service reports that its Investigations show a decided improvement In busi ness conditions all over the country. In 2SI principal industrial centers the employment situation is rapidly changing for the better. The current month will witness the beginning of a period of great industrial activity, according to the federal authorities. Those who fail to find employment elsewhere probably can be accommo dated on the farms. In another month there should remain little ex cuse for anybody's being out of a job. THE DISCREDITED DIRIGIBLE. It is reported that the government is proceeding to rebuild the wrecked dirigible airship Roma. This action has the appearance of sending good money after bad. The destruction of the Roma, pre sumably the largest and one of the most recently built of all the semi rigid dirigibles in the world, says H. H. Windsor, in Popular Mechanics, ought to satisfy those advocates of the dirigible who refuse to be convinced it is not the one great avenue of de velopment in air "Craft. Whatever their beautiful theories may set up, he points "out, the plain unvarnished facts are that a dirigible is both diffi cult and dangerous to have around, to attempt to fly, or try to land. It is so unwieldy when it meets with ad verse air currents, it Is buffeted about. It must have selected weather to take off. and is. altogether a fair-day toy. "When ope reviews the work of the German dirigibles over London dur ing the war," he says, "ths results are all out of proportion to the damage one would expect of them. It is true, at first, they destroyed the morale ef some old men and a lot of women and children, and they did blow.up an oc casional building, but with "all the Zeppelins floating over a mark which a city ttf eight millions affords, I re peat the net results were all out of proportion to what can be accom plished today with ths same amount of money invested In airplanes." Ths dirigible, besides affording a target of great visibility, is a constant menace to itself. There are always ths unpresentable leaky gasoline pipes, the red-hot exhaust pipes, a blast of fire and sparks when an en gine backfires, and the ever-present danger from static electricity caused by ths friction of the air on the enve lope. There are ether self-contained firs risks, but those named are quite sufficient, to which must be added that of bent and broken skeleton structure Cue to sudden strains. To date the dirigibles, the writer contends, have undoubtedly killed more of their own crew and people than they have taken lives of an enemy. They never have acconv plished any great engineering feat. They are dangerous, unreliable, cost ly, with a minimum of results, and now that we expect to take a naval holiday we can well afford to cut out dirigibles of ths Roma type. TOPEKA STATE JOURNAL Information Bureau FREDERIC J. HASKE, Director. Faahlngton, D. C THE STAGE DOOR INN. New York City, March 12. A novel tea room, with actresses as waitresses and tips forbld-den, has just opened its mid-Victorian doors In an old fashioned, house on West Forty seventh street here. It is called "The Stage Door Inn" and is the ente.rprls.aJ ui 1 1 .inuunai tjia&n change, a new,y incorporated organ ization of actresses and society women whose chief purpose is to provide em ployment for hard-up members of the theatrical profession. This las been one of the worst theatrical seasons that New York has ever lived thru. Play after play has closed abruptly almost as soon as it has opened, and as a consequence hundreds (some say thousands) of actors and actresses are out of jobs. Some of these ai"e managing to live with rigid economy on-their small sav ings, but the majority have turned to other lines of work. Many of the leading ladies of yesteryear are now holdins secretarial Jobs in Wall street, or selling various lines of merchan dise in New York shops. A character actor of once widespread lame is now a clerk in a fashionable men's wear shop, while two attractive little ac tresses whose names were fairly well known three years ago, are now forc ing best sellers upon the public in a Fifth avenue bookstore. Still others who have a knack for making things dolls, lamp shades, hats, and the like are working industriously in their own homes and praying for an appreciative market. Origin of the Idea. This last explains how the National Stage Woman's Exchange and its tea room came into "existence. There was a certain actress named Anita Claren don who had not been able to get a part for two years. She tried secre tarial work and then interior decorat ing, but could not secure a really worthwhile job because she had not had sufficient experience. Finally, she discovered that she could make lamp shades with great skill and rapidity,, but she had no place in which to exhibit them to the public. At this point, a friend who was going away for the holidays, offered the use of her apartment which ironted on a busy street for exhibition purposes. Miss Clarendon accepted both for her self and for several other actresses also engaged in various lines of home manufacture. The results of this brief holiday ex hibit were so encouraging that the women decided to open an exchange to sell the many attractive, little novelties made by jobless theatrical people. Then one of the exhibitors recalled the motto so popular in New York "When in doubt, start a tea room!" So a tea room vas added to the plans; after which some one sug gested that they also have a- manicur ing parlor. Eventually, the whole four stories of the Exchange house will be crowded with its activities. The tea room or Stage Door Inn opened with a formal reception re cently, at which many prominent men and women of the stage appeared as the first patrons. Mr. E. M. Gattle presented the Inn with a diamond wrist watch, to be raffled oft for its benefit, while Mr. William A. Brady was so much pleased with the decora tions that he immediately gave the exchange a contract for work on the sets of his next two plays. The oak paneled restaurant, with its great fireplace, cozy wall seats, flowered cretonne curtains and slender table vases, is exceptionally attractive, and the menu is equally so. Wait Better Than Waitresses. The young ladies in white caps, who move swiftiy and expertly about the tables serving food are all actresses of several years experience on the stage. Miss Madge Surtrees, the first to wait upon a patron, is Just back from Can ada, where she aapeared in "French Leave"; and the Davenport sisters, nieces of the famous Fanny Daven port, are others. They are surprising ly adept at waiting table, in view of the fact that they have never done it before. This Is because they are actresses, according to Miss Hilda Spong, pres ident of the National Stage Women's Exchange. "They can wait better than waitresses," she says, "because, in the first place, they have the artis tic instinct to do everything beauti fully and, in the second place, they havs been trained professionally to handle their own personalities har moniously and efficiently." With the exception of the cooking and the laundering of the table linen, all of the work in connection with the Dm is done by actresses. Upstairs, in the room above the tea room, a character woman, who has just re turned from a long engagement in London, may be found hemming nap kins and tablecloths at a sewing ma chine, while in another corner is Miss Madge Corcoran, once popular in -the companies of E. H. Sothern and John Drew, working on the Brady decora tion contract. The room in the rear of the second floor, which at present contains nothing: but a clothes line usually strung with napkins, and iron ing apparatus, is presided over by another actress, Eisie Cohn, who was recently located by the Exchange when she was ill and out of work. Another pathetic case narrated by Mrs. Hesse was that of a young actor who came to the Inn the other night and asked for work. He was a war veteran who had been in a hospital for several months. Since then, he had not been able to secure a job of any sort, allho he was willing to per form any task that would pay the price of a room and board. "As he stood in the hall telling me his story, the smell of fried chicken was wafted thru the door, and I saw him turn pale and grip the arm of the divan. The man had probably not had food for days. So I invited him In to dinner, and later sent him to see an ex-army officer who might help him." What trie Exchange Handles. In the Exchange itself, which is in the basement, various products are on sale. There are chic little hats, some of which are made by a very clever milliner who is aiso a member of the "Sally" company here in Ney t York dainty, handmade baby clothes.' jelly, jam, candy, lingerie, dolls, slippers, handmade handkerchiefs, men's neck ties and party favors. Already the Exchange has been slightly em barrassed by a hurry order from one society matron for 37 different var ities of flower favore "the making of which." said the Titian-haired ac tress in charge of the Exchange, "will certainly tax my knowledge of botany. "The Exchange." she explained "will act as a clearing house for all those in the profession. Those who sew, mend or darn, will find an outlet for their labor thru our bureau.

The Stage Door Inn is already turn ing guests away by the hundred; the basement headquarters of the Ex chage is always crowded, and It will doubtless not be long before the man icuring parlor is doing a large busi ness. If it keeps up this phenomenal growth, the enterprise should eventu ally prove a great aid to the pro fession. George Matthew Adams Daily Talk KNOW WHAT YOU WANT. The man who does not. know what he wants in life is In exactly the same position as the ship without' a pilot. Neither one will get anywhere ex cept thru a rare accident. You must know not only what you want, but have a plan for going after it. It is even better to aim and work for the thing you want and fail to get it than' to aim at nothing and get what you don't want. The man who knows what he wants stands that class by himself. His feet are set and every wandering wind can not upset his course. He has confi dence in himself and other people trust him.' Know what you want and then want it so thoroly that you can't help but get it! And want many things. It Is all very well for one to be a "man of one idea," but the man with a score of ideas will get much more out of this running life. The intellect is made keen and alert by interest in many things. But whatever is attempted should be carried thru happily, and with efficient care.- When you know what you want, you possess something that is silent within you and. cannot be taken from you. The chemist often- runs thru sev eral thousand experiments before he gets what he wants. But he knows when he is successful for he has had in mind that exact success from the start of the first experiment. Know what you want while the touch of youth is on, and while ambi tion is hot. Then, as you grow into the deepened shadows of advancing age, you will appreciate all the more every thrill that sent you forward. But thinking and' action must be happily combined. Listen, -read, observe, study into things and search for reasons but know in advance what you want and stick to it! LITTLE BENNY'S NOTE BOOK BT LJEH PAPTK.

That is, he called it an omelet, but that is because the mixture of eggs ma.L ne proceeded to try on nis mtie j one-burner gas stove sounded more inviting when so dubbed than as scrambled eggs. His coat was off and his sleeves were rolled up. A book lay open on the combination study and dining table in the center of his large, rather bare room. From time to. time, in his preparations for his 2 o'clock lunch he would read a few sentences and conjure over them as he went about his tasks. Then there was a knock and he opened the door, holding his cooking spoon in one hand. He was quite sure that it was one of his fel low medical students. But it wasn't. It was Molly Hope, the daughter of his guardian, from way down south of the Mason and Dixon line. "Heavens above!" exclaimed Lee, throwing the spoon toward the table and taking Molly's hand in a vigorous handshake. i "I thought you'd be surprised. But you're the only person I know in Philadelphia." Lee. had closed the door and cleared his most comfortable chair of note books and papers and Molly was seated when she continued: "I have been visiting near New York and I had to make a change here for a southern train and I discovered that I hadn't any money. Just 10 cents, and I spent that on carefares finding you. I must have left my money in the trunk that was to be expressed thru. In fact. I am quite sure I did. I remembered your address just br chance, and so I came to get you to give me a little money to get my ticket home." Molly stopped sudden ly, sniffing inquisitively. "Excuse me, Lee," she said, "but weren't you cook ing something?" In three long steps Lee, who had been very much engrossed just look ing at his pretty caller and basking in the soft melody of her voice, reached the stove. "I was cooking an omelet. I guess it is burned. You see, sometimes I get a bite at home when I have been working hard at the clinic." Then, after explanations. Inter rupted by explanations, it was agreed that Lee should go out in search of the needed funds while Molly should remain in the room preparing a real omelet with the eggs that Lee had on hand, and sfter that they should lunch together. Lee intimated that he could not reach the' bank before closing time, which was a fact, tho the im portant thing was that there was no money in the bank anyway. He hoped to be able to borrow the needed $20 from some of his fellow students whose resources might not be so low as his own. To of these friends were away when he called at their lodgings and the other two were nearly as impecuni ous as he. He managed to acquire between them $3.2 5 and spent 40 cents for pastries on his way home. Lee, with much embarrassment, confessed his failure on his return, but Molly said that there must be no further worry about business matters until after they had eaten lunch. She had cleared the table of books and papers and pipes and set it with Lee's meager supply of dishes. There was a real omelet, tea, crackers and the pastry, and to the hungry young people it tasted like a feast. "Imagine my coming to see you in your room," exalted Molly after they had finishe'd, "when father didn't even want us to write! What would he think of this?" 'Under the circumstances, I don't see how he could object," said Lee with a. little -stiffness. "Your father seems to object to me on general principles. Of course he is my guard ian, and the way my father's will was left I can't control my own money until after I am twenty-six another year more." "I know about it," said Molly. "And you cannot hardly blame dad if he doesn't give you any larger al- lowance. He is really bound by the terms of the will to take only enough from it for the expenses of your main tenance and education." "I didn't want to have a larger al lowance," protested Lee, glad to see that Molly understood the way the land lay. "I simply have been asking him to make a -loan. I'm of age, good ness knows, L, know my -own mind and when -money is tied up by wills like That the trustees or guardians often forward something "But dad says you are extravagant. Where does the money go? That's what he, asks. You have a large al lowance," "Molly blushed a little at her seeming impertinence. "Really, Lee, where does it go? Surely living this way can't cost very much, cooking your own lunches and things. You poor dear, it's a shame, dad thinks you are living extravagantly." "It costs something to study medi cine nowadays. Molly. T finished my work as interne several months ago, and now I'm taking a post-graduate course here, some specializing I was interested in. I didrft want to hang out my shingle until I had enough money to buy my car and get my equipment." Lee stopped abruptly and looked Into Molly's sweet brown eyes. "I didn't want to start till I could go down home and as you to ma,"ry me. and 1 naa no. rigbt to ask uu or J' "iimi uui x money. It's going to be a great ad- "venture starting in who mj pratu 1 and I didn't want to be alone at the start, out pernups it i iuuuou dream Molly had drawn her chair over to Lee's and had put one of her hands over his soothingly. "You know how I feel, Lee you must havs guessed. But, of course. I couldn't do anything to hurt dad, and dad just thinks you have been extravagant. He thicks you've been studying medicine just as an excuse to come off here and live alone. He can't see how any one who is some time to have all your money to rpend could choose to be a doctor. That is why he is so sus picious. Perhaps I can help to ex plfUn. now that I have seen you. Still, I don't see why you needed so much money to live this way." That money still worries you," Lee laughed. "Well. I suppose I must explain. I havs been -extravagant. ghamefullv so There sharneruuy f- 1 er equipment I would have was certain e to have when I started out, and I- figured if I got it now it would be ueful to me now. I've put a couple of thousand dollars into instruments and other -equipment. That's why i have had to live this way. That's why I am always dead broke before my monthly check cornea That's why I haven't the money to lend you For a moment 'Lea was dejected over this failure to rescue Molly in her predicament.- Finally it was agreed that as he would have to wait until morning to arrange at the bank to forward some money on the strengthf of his next monthly remit tance Molly would have to see about getting accommodations. She could go to a hotel for ths night, telegraph home of her delay, and then take a train in the morning after funds had been secured to pay her hotel bill and for her ticket home. Still, she could not go and come unknown at her hotel without baggage. So Lee hit upon the scheme. He spent some of his scant change In telegraphing to Molly's father in her name and had enough meney left to pay for a taxi man to carry Molly and one of his trunks to one of the good hotels. The trunk, tho empty, would serve as security. She could have it checked on south on her ticket, as Lee was returning home in the spring and had a precious imall wardrobe to carry. That would save Lee the expense of expressing it when the time came. Lee iad gone out to see about the telegram when the taxi man came so Molly in some confusion wrote to Lee that she had gone- to her hotel, had got the taxi man to take the trunk, and would expect him in the morning bright and early. Late that night Lee got a note by special messenger from Molly that her father had wired money in re sponse to her telegram, to the hotel address that Lee had given her, that the hotel clerk had cashed the order and that she had just departed on a midnight train. It was not until morning that Lee discovered that Molly had taken not the empty trunk but a trunk contain ing $1,000 worth of equipment, all fortunately carefully packed for trans portation. Two days later- came a night letter from Lee's home town in the south. "The trunk was so heavy that dad had it opened. Wo discovered the equipment, which showed how money has been spent. Dad is sending check on account. He hopes you will come back home to begin practice in the spring. Shall we have the trunk sent back?" To which Lee responded, "Keep trunk. Coming home at once to hang out my shingle." (Copyright, 1922, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) Helen Hunter's Husband BY JANE PHELPS A SERIOUS QUARREL FOR JACK Chapter 45. Jack Hunter was so taken aback by Helen's action in borrowing from Barnes that he scarcely knew how to act. He had never doubted Helen's integrity for a moment, but, in a way, he knew men. A man of Barnes' type, a bachelor with money, and his wife it was inconceivable that people wouldn't gosnip, if they had not al ready done so. Helen blamed him for borrowing be cause he did not earn enough to pay heir-card debts. He had reasoned with her about playing for money, had re fused to pay Cebts contracted in that way thinking it would perhaps pre vent her playing. The only effect it had had was to drive her to borrow from Barnes. Helen's face had settled into hard determined lines when Jack delivered his ultimatum that she should no longer bs friendly with Barnes. After a moment of pregnant silence the storm burst: "You sit there and say whom I shall have as friends? You come home day after day with your hard-luck stories, deny me money to have the simple pleasures all my women friends have then try to dictate to me! What kind of a woman do you think I am to stand for it!" There was no doubt that Helen was angry now. "I shall have for friends whomever I choose, both men and women. You deceive me, make money you never tell me about, force me to borrow to keep up my end with the people I go with, and then try to lay down the law to me! You can't do it. Jack! There's no use of your trying." "So I see if you mean what you say, which I hope you don't. Can't you see yourself," with growing im patience, "the position you put me, put yourself in? You couldn't feel, anyway you couldn't really be insulted no matter what Barnes might say or do. He ia paid now, and by me. Drop him." "Indeed I shall not! I couldn't if I wanted to. He's friendly with every one I know, visits them. And if you think I am going to miss his nice parties, well I guess not! And he's giving that one he invited you to let me see, day niter tomorrow. "You're not going!" "I am!" "No, Helen, you are not!" Jack's voice was firm. "I'd like to see you keep me at home. Now come. Jack, why be so horrid," her anger gone, oozing out as n always did, why not be a good fellowi and have a good time with me. If you weren't so awfully goody-goody in your notions we could. But you are such a kill Joy. Do be an old dear and act differently. Hor Mr. Barnes is paid. We don't owe him anything." Altho she wouldn't acknowledge it, Helen was relieved that her debt was paid. "Now let's forget it, and have a good time with all the rest." Jack threw a nickel and. three pen nies on the table. "That's every penny I have to my name now that your gambling debt is paid. Instead of talking of good times, Helen, why not turn over a new leaf and try, to help me get on? If you would we could soon put away a little because if you would help me I could work so much better. Now it seems to make no difference. You Bpend "verything before I get U. Will you, Helen?" "Will I what?" "Give up these gay friends of yours and live as we can afford to live,. and "I'll tell you right now that you never need ask me to do that! Give up my friends and slave in your kitchen without any pleasures not on your tin-type! What a ridiculous thing for you to propose! "Then I don't care what becomes of us. I'm thru." "That's right! Welch. Marry a woman, promise her all sorts of things, money and happiness, and then lay down on the job. Mother warned me. she told me you never would amount to anything; that I could do much bet ter if I wouldn't marry you. But be cause I loved you I married you and look what my loving you has brought me. My husband tells me 'he's thru!' Little he cares what becomes of me. Well, be thru if you want to! I'm going to bed' I "I have done all I can. Jack said to himself hours afterward when hs too went to rest. The next morning Helen was as pleasant as usual, she had slept well, and looketf bright and rested. "Hope you'll get rid of your grouch before dinner time." she called after Jack, who had scarcely spoken thru breakfast, "and good luck! Write a nice big policy for your little wlfey!" She blew him a kiss from her finger tips. (Tomorrow Jack's luck turns) ON SECOND THOUGHT by jay e. house (From Philadelphia Public Ledger.) We were so deeply interested in the career of Robert Savage, rich Yale ath-a-lete. that we violated Rule No. 23 and turned over to page 18 to find out what he had done. Rule No. 23 provides that the doings of a Yale ath-a-lete in New York shall not be fol lowed beyond the front page on which it first appears. Well, we pursued this bird to page 18 and discovered he was an ineligible member of the freshman j football team last fall. j In tbe event that you have not been following tho story, it is as you sus- j pect: The ath-a-letio young Mr. Sav- I age has Just married a chorus girl. Watching the convolutions of "The Gold Diggers" the other night we fell into reflective and ruminative mood. Wo wondered why the young fellows nowadays bother with the chorus. The girls of their own sets are so much more attractive, so much better dressed, so much cleverer and incal culably more sophisticated and indis creet. As we have said, we fell into reflective and ruminative mood. We failed to arrive at any conclusion, but when we emerged from the mood the show was over, and that is something. It is our own notion that the allure of the chorus has always been over written. We were about the theater a good many years; most of the time ws had the "run of the shop." .We never met but one chorus lady, and she was so painfully shy that con versation with a strange gent was em barrassing to her. It Is not enough to fight for the country in time of war. Somebody nas got to oe lor it all the time. Alice Paul complains of thirty seven -laws that are unfair to women Ws don't know Just how maftiy laws there are. What we do know is that all of tho balance of them are de signed in some way to penalise the man who, having gone to the trouble to earn a dollar, has thought it worth while to save it. At any rate, Mathilde McCormick has secured the consent of one grand father to her-contemplated wedding. We refer, of course, to -her fiance, M. Oser. That one emerged from ths molds bearing a number of flaws. It is predicated on an unsound wimple, and its wallop lacks impetus. But you'll have to admit ths idea behind it was clever. We don't know whether there ia anything in the story that Mr. Wilson is in contact with Senator Borah. If it's true, it's a considerable feat. Con tact with Senator Borah is more than that which is ostensibly his own party has ever been able to establish. Ostensibly, the Democrats are plan ning to rebuke the Republicans for their folly, but all they really hope to do is to beat Senator Lodge for re election. It is. we pause to observe, the New York assembly, and not the legisla ture of Oklahoma, that is considering a bill forbidding an unmarried girl under 17 to attend a dance unless ac companied by at least one parent. "And besides," Miss Annie Fltzlu is quoted as saying in explaining the breaking of her engagement: "I want to be free. I believe in woman's eco nomic independence. I have that in dependence and want to continue in it." All right, let Miss Fitziu go ahead with her economic indepen dence aid see if the men care. It is possible that all of the other members of Miss Fitziu's sex will be come Imbued with her idea. If they do, maybe the men will be able to save a little money. It is not alone that the advocates of the proposed "blue laws" wish to curtail our liberties and our diver sions. They are also primarily re sponsible for ths formation of an anti-blue law league.

Dorothy Dix Talks BT SOIOTIT MX Waste's atitrheat Palw Wsjaaa WHsssw Tho Best Bait 1. The one thing that every woman would -like to know mora than any th'ng else In the wide world, is what bait to use tviiei: she becomes a fiaher of men. What c,uaiities do men admire most in women? What is the secret of the mysterious allure some women seem to have every man? Why do some women draw men to them, and others repulse them? Why can some women marry hajf a dozen times while others never have a single proposal? If any woman has soived this riddle of the Sphinx she keeps her precious knowledge to herself. If men really know what is the charm by which they are conjured they are generally silent on the subject, but the other jday when this burning sublect was being dis cussed, a man said: "Of course, women all believe that the thing that attracts man first to a woman is a pretty face. Probably this is true, but beauty is a sort of show window attraction. A man likes to look at a girl who is easy on the eyes. He likes to take out a woman who is such a stunner that she makes every body rubber, but that's about all, un less it happens that the living picture has n. mind and a heart that are as well adorned as her body. "And that doesn't happen often be cause when nature lavishes a lot of extra frills on the outside of anybody, either man or woman, she is mighty apt to skimp on the inside furnishings. Most men are Content to admire the living picture from a distance, and let some other man provide the house to hang it in. Also beauties almost In variably lose their hold cn men when their looks fade, so I would not rank beauty very high as a husband getter. "Aa for intelligence, only the hun dredth man is attracted by intellec tuality in a woman. The balance have no relish for feminine brains un less they are scrambled. It takes a bigger man than the avernge man is to desire a wife who knows more than he does. "The happy husband Is one who is married to a woman who has just enough intelligence to run her house thriftily, and to follow meekly along In his way, and believe that every time he speaks sha listens to the voice of an oracle. "Women think that they attract men by dressing like fashion platea, but it is only the non-marrying men who are keen about chiffons, and Jewels, and furs and chase around after baby dolls. A man who ia looking for a wife Isn't deliberately hunting tip a lady who will blow in his whole In come on imported finery." (Copyright, 1942, by the Wheeler Syn dicate Inc.) JUST FOLKS PY EDGAR A.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL WEDNESDAY EVENING, MARCH-15, 1922 r. GREAT WARS .MAKE MEN THINK After a period of military activity follows a period of intellectual activity. Colleges help men to think straight. Historically, every war has been succeeded by an awaken ing of men's minds. That was true of the Thirty Years War, the French Revolution, of our own Civil War. It is true now. Thousands of Kansas boys have seen a world which their fathers only imagined. They faced the customs, traditions and culture of another continent. Some of them were not prepared to understand what they sew. They want to understand it now. It is a new world, in which Chateau Thierry, St. Mihiel, the Meuse, the Argonne, are closer to the hearts of many Kansas families than Chicago, Omaha and the Ohio river. The brothers and sisters of the men who brought far places home to us they also wish to understand this larger world. To find out more about their world, these boys and girls are going to college. That is why the enrollment of Washburn college in creased in 1921, despite the difficulties which the farmer, the merchant and the workman all alike had to face that year. That is why most colleges and universities are crowded, more crowded than they have ever been, notwithstanding talk last year about depression and hard times. More men and women ai'e seeking higher education than ever before in all history. Washburn, if adequately supported and prepared to re ceive them, can have its share of those men and women. This opportunity is Topeka's opportunity. Scores of students who wish to enter Washburn are going elsewhere because they cannot be accommodated. Mere numbers are not Washburn's ideal. The quality of, its teaching will always be the first consideration. But if it is worth while to educate one man well, it is more worth while to educate two men well. Two good citizens are more useful than one good citizen. If 1,000 students help to make Topeka prosperous, 2,000 students will make Topeka more prosperous. In all Kansas, there are facilities for imparting higher education to only one-third the young people intellectually able to receive it, according to Chancellor Lindley, of Kan sas university. A man can educate himself, if he has time enough, money enough, energy enough and books, equipment and skilled in struction. But the quickest, the easiest, the cheapest and the best way to get an education is in a college. Men and women are thinking harder than they ever thought before. They are testing faiths, they are examining creeds. Not all of this thinking is health'. Quackery and ignor ance, prejudice and fanaticism, shout with the loudest. Wild theories of politics, society and morals are broad cast by the heedless and the uninformed. Knowledge is the best weapon against ignorance. History is the best answer to Bolshevism. The classroom is a better place for education than a street corner forum whose rostrum is a soap-box. It is worth your while to educate the young men and women of this generation in colleges like Washburn, founded on the eldest American traditions, the traditions of the Puritans.

At the age of 101 years, Hadji Tagie'v. Baku's former oil king, who was ruined by soviet nationalization of his property, has. started to rebuild his fortunes where he began as a stone mason. Hadji Tagiev is an optimist. "A man isn't old so long as he can work," he declared, and, like a. true Mussul man, he continues to dye his white beard brown. He is using his spare moments in learning to write. Kor more than eighty years he had signed his name to business papers by making his mark with a blunt stick dipped in ink. "One must keep up with the times," he explained to curious friends when the centenarian began to take lessons. Tagiev is known to Americans thru his reception in his Baku palace two and a half years ago of the Gen. James H. Harbord mission. He was and is known thruout Russia and the middle east as an example of a poor man who became immensely wealthy, first as a house builder and then, sixty years ago, thru the purchase of a piece of oil land that yielded abundantly. This was in the days when oil was gathered close to the surface and taken from wells in buckets. When the Azerbaijan republic was sovietized by Moscow, his palace was converted into a children's orphanage and its treasures of art and tapestry scattered. While trying to take some his silver plate and paintings to the country in ox carts apparently laden with straw, a red sentinel at the out skirts of the city discovered and seized the escaping wealth. Tagiev was be hoved by the workmen of Baku and was not harmed in person. He is now living in the village of Mar da Khani, near here. WOMEN AT CHURCH PARLEY.

RENO HOTEL IS DESTROYED Established That o Guests Perished In Night Blaze. Reno. Nev., March 15. Score of guests escaped from upper windows in their night clothes when the Riverside hotel, the largest hotel here, was de stroyed by fire early this morning. The fire, believed to have started in the engine room, broke out shortly after 2 o'clock. The flames spread upward quickly and the guests, aroused by the smoke, found the stair ways cut off. Most of them were res cued by firemen with ladders. The firemen prevented the flames from spreading to other buildings, but could not save the hotel. Several thrilling rescues were re ported, among them that of two chil dren from a blazing room. The scantily clad guests were cared for in surrounding houses. A mild night saved them much suffering from ex posure. Following a check of the guest list, it was stated by the fire marshal that no lives "were lost. The fire was under control at 10 o'clock today, altho still burning fiercely. The cause of the fire had not been determined. The first estimate of the damage was placed at $100.000.

WHEAT Lower prices were made early in the session on general selling inspired by BroomhallJ's ca ble quoting Liverpool spot wheat sharply lower and in a demoralized condition. Other news agencies failed to confirm this situa- tion and at this writing it has not as yet been determined whether or not the orig inal quotations were correct. Mav wheat in Liverpool did net reflect anv such weak. jless, closing at the same price as yester play. The buying on the early break was of a more impressive character than at any time within the past week and at the close the market had a far better tone. Attention is now being diverted to the domestic cash position, which was -anything but strong during the big advance in futures. Indi cations are not lacking that the corner has oeen turned in this regard, as evidenced by urn auxiui-iutc tendency as comparea witn the futures in various markets. Pro nounced strength has not as vet uevelooed but if the demand continues to broaden with the movement certain to diminish much stronger situation could easilv be brouirht about. Irrea-ularltv mav uredoro inate in the futures for a while longer but tne Duyug side looks to us to be the prop er one. CORN Heavy liquidation set in after the opening, carrying prices into new low ground on the present move.

"The detour is for the most part, on tne micuanci Trail, or the Red Lin the road which runs thru Watson and StuII, and which has been travelled between the two villages for the past tony years, rsagei continued. "It was always recommended, be fore the Victory Highway was paved as the best road between the two vil lages, and was accepted as such.

"It's just another argument to show the delights of the hard surfaced roads. The detour, by the way, is in the best condition that road has been in for years.

He explained that whire the plesio saurus dated back ten million years. the edentates, such as the glyptodon ana megatherium belonged to th equaternary era of only a million years ago...

HEIFETZ'S ACCOMPANIST IB. SAMUEL CHATZiNOFF The old saying, "Give the devil his due,'' is perhaps used as meaning lefs!y as many other good ones and unfortunately so. "What it intends to I convey is that we be-strictly fair and unprejudiced in all our dealings, giv ing credit whero it legitimately be longs, whether or not it suits our per sonal fancies. When a soloist is acclaimed y audience and critic to be la success the fact that without a good accompanist a performance of that I sort would he a miserable failure is generally overlooked. The art of ac- Icompanylng, while subjective in a sense, requires as much technique-and general musicianship as does solo playing. In addition to this an ac companist must possess the sensitive alertness which brings about his re sponse to unannounced changes of mood on the part of the soloist. Mr. Chatzinoff in an artist who proved during the He-fetz concert to not only possess all these require ments hut in addition he exhibited ex ceptional virtuosity in the passages, he played while Heifetz was sileriY. I The part of hi accompanying which impressed me the most was the way in w-hich he handled the voice combina tions in different numbers, creating lighter and sometimes deeper back ground coloring immaculately suited to offset the high 'lights of Heifetz's tone sketch. In the Faint Paena Ttn-mfo Caprie- cioso I m persuaded to think Chatzi- noff exhibited as much capricious artistry as the soloist did. In the Brahms' Dance Xo. 7 his changing from one mood to another was as- tounding. Taken all in all. fiftv oer cent of the credit for the tremendous success of the Heuetz concert should go to Mr. Chatzinoff. He is unques tionably the outstanding figure in point of excellence among the many accompanists we have heard this SL'a-. son. 1 The reason."
