K. C. Officers Take Yonng Mys tery Women Away. CARRY PIPE AND A REVOLVER Claim They Were Driving From St. Joseph to Tulsa. Followed Into Topeka by a Suspicious Farmer. Waldo, the plot is surely thicken ing. Verily, the scenario becometh goo-ey at thin point. For the police have information that at least two of the four young girls picked up here Thursday noon with a Ford sedan are regular ban dits. It Is believed they are the cou ple who, Wednesday evening, held up Cecil Holopeter, a driver for the Edi son Auto Livery. 11 H West Ninth street. Kansas City, Mo., and at the points of two revolvers relieved him of $15 in cash and his Ford sedan. Kansas City officers arrived in To peka this afternoon and took charge of the young women and the Ford, returning to Kansas City with them. The girls were not questioned here before being returned to Kansas City. Stuck l"p Kansas City Taxi Driver. According to the word received by the police here, a man and woman hailed Holopeter at Eighth and Cen tral avenue in Kansas City Wednes day evening about 9:30 o'clock and asked to be driven to City Park drive, on the Kansas side- Arrived there, the couple each produced revolvers and. leveling them at Holopeter, com pelled him to give up J 15 in cash. They then climbed into the sedan and drove away. 'It is believed here That the man referred to in the Kansas City bulletin was. in reality, one of the girls. One wore heavy service bnot3 and a man's cap. Her coat resembled a man's coat. While the girls were passing thru Meriden Thursday morn ing one wore a cap and held a pipe in her mouth. Men at the Meriden ga rage were ready to swear she was a young man. Carried Pipe and Revolver. When booked at the police station here the girls gave their names as Rosa Bass. 22: Marie La Mont, 19; Verne Flahierty,. 19, and Joe Connel ley. 19. A pipe and smoking tobacco were found in the car, and under the rear seat was foend a .38 caliber re volver. E. S. Steffy. farmer living two miles west of Kock Creek, was responsible for the girls' arrest. They stopped at his place about 6:30 o'clock Thursday morning to get some gasoline. Their stories were so confused that he be came suspicious and followed them to Topeka. They "stepped on her" when they saw him following them, and Steffy could hardly keep up with them on the wild drive. He lost them at Tenth avenue and Quincy street, then notified the police. Officers found the sedan at the filling station at Tenth avenue and Topeka boule vard, where the girls were having a tire repaired. They were taken to the station. At that time the officers did not know whether or not the girls were wanted. 'o Tangible Information. Hours of talk and questioning this morning and Thursday afternoon failed to draw from the girls anv tangible Information. They claimed they were going from St. Joseph. Mo., to Tulsa. Ok la. Joe Connelley de clared the car belongs to her father, who is In Tulsa. She said she drove It to St. Joseph several months ago and had to take out a Missouri license tag as she was going to stay there several weeks. The motor number, license number and general descrip tion of the Ford sedan in which they were riding corresponds exactly with that of the Kansas City taxi driver. The girls admitted knowing the re volver was in the car, but Joe declared it belonged to her father. However, they denied all knowledge of the pipe and tobacco and said some man must have laid It in the car while they were having tires repaired. Joe claimed to be married, but said she had left her husband. Rosa Bass said she was married and has a boy she wouldn't tell where. Don't Care for Her "Old Man. "I doi.'t care anything about my old man," said Rosa, "but I do want my boy. I'm going back to him just as soon as 1 can get out of here." "Oh. I wish I was back homo," sighed little Verne Flahierty. "I've got a brother in Council Bluffs, la., and I wish I was with him. But I sure wouldn't want him to know I'm In here." "Believe me, here's one that won't holler." emphatically asserted Joe Connelley. "I've got a fourth Chero kee Indian blood in me. There's no use wiring my dad, because it would n't do ar.y good. He'd say: "That little-Indian has got in bad. but she'll get out of it." "I'm not saying a thing." said Marie LaMoot, rolling her eyes coquettishly. 'We're here, and here we stay until we get out." "Came from nowhere, going no where." chimed in Joe. "I'm at home wherever my boots are off, and you'll notice I haven't got 'em on now." Have Bobbed Hair. The girls all wore bobbed hair. When arrested they were dressed In khaki trousers and Joe wore the heavy duty boots. Little Verne wore a man's cap. In the seclusion of the women's ward they had donned feminine attire again, with the ex ception of Marie, who wore a loose white shirt and tight knee breeches of vel veteeen. Marie seemed to be the most In nocent of the quartet. She was ready to go home, yet appeared to be willing to stay by her companions. Rosa ap peared sick of the who'e proceeding.

President Harding is contemplating the appoint ment of his private secretary, George B. Christian, Jr., to the post of gov ernor of Porto Rico, to succeed the presenf incumbent. E. Mont. Riley, of Kansas City, according to persistent reports current today in congressional circles. No confirmation was obtain able at the White House. In contemplating such a move.

The Brit ish National Opera company, linanced by popular subscription and composed exclusive! of British artists and con ductors, has opened the old playhouse. The first week's program includes three nights of Wagner opera and the critics speak favorably of the per formances, but the garden is tame as compared with the o:d days, as most folks seem to be there, not to look at jewels and dresses, but to enjoy the opera. stick by each other.

Harrison Charges He Received Lowden Campaign Funds. HE ALSO CHARGES PRESIDENT "Harding Paid Him Last," Said Harrison on Senate Floor. Nomination To Be Considered j on Floor of Body, Perhaps. Washington, May 6. Senate attack 1 upon the nomination of Nat Goldstein j to be internal revenue collector at St. Louis because he accepted $2,500 from the presidential campaign mana gers of former Governor Lowden, of Illinois, was opened today by Senator Harrison, Democrat, Mississippi, who declared several other Lowden dele gates had been given appointments under the present administration. Senator Harrison .-id Mr. Goldstein was one of the Lowden delegates from Missouri who had been "corrupted" with money of the Lowden campaign. "No candidates was sailing more smoothly than Governor Lowden," said Harrison. "The thing that turned his chances and accomplished his de feat more than anything else was the corruption of two delegates from Mis souri." Names Many Others. Among the Missouri delegates named by Senator Harrison as having received Lowden money were Roy T. Davis, appointed minister to Costa Rica; W. H. Allen. Missouri state pro hibition agent, and W. L. Cole, special assistant to the attorney general. Senaror Harrison said Cole got $500 of "Lowden money," and $1,200 of "Harding money." Senator Harrison added that Davis got $500 and Mr. Allen $400 of the Lowden money. Cole got his $1,200 of Harding's money, the senator said, from Attorney General Daugherty, who, Mr. Harrison charged, was in Missouri "working for Harding." Senator Harrison said that "they never could find out" who Mr. Cole really favored. Charges Harding Also. "But "Harding paid him last and he finally voted for Harding." said Sen ator Harrison. Senator Harrison read from testimony of the senate commit tee which investigated the 1920 cam paign contributions, stressing state ments that Mr. Goldstein had received $2,500 of Lowden's money from Jake Babler, Republican national commit teeman for Missouri. "He deposited it to his own personal account and checked against it just as other funds," said Senator Harri son. "Later he denied it. He said he'd made a mistake:- Now he is honored by the president of the United States as collector of internal revenue." Senator Harrison served notice again that he would make every effort to have Mr. Goldstein's nomination considered in open session and de clared he proposed to show that "Harding money also was plentiful in Missouri." V Republicans Are Ashamed? Senator Caraway. Democrat. Arkan sas, interjected that Mr. Goldstein "appeared to be a pretty good collec tor." and Senator Harrison said th-it another Lowden delegate. Robert Moore,' who, he said, also receive! $2,500, was now the deputy county clerk under Mr. Goldstein. If Gold stein should be confirmed as collec tor. Senator Haritson aid. Moore probably would be promoted to clerk. Senator Harrison said the Republi cans would "bow their heads in shame" to know that "such charac ters" as Mr. Goldstein and the other Lowden delegates had been appointed to federal positions. He also referred to E. L. Morse as a recipient of $32, 000 of Lowden campaign funds but Mr. Morse.- the senator said, was wealthy and had not yet received any federal appointment. He described Mr. Morse as "the paymaster for Mis souri of the Lowden campaign." KIDNAP A COP THREE DEAD. One Posse Member, Two Bandits Die Other Two Gunmen Dying. Canton. Ohio, May E.

McNeal told the delegates he be lieved they would be defeating only themselves if they organized a third party. "You say you want to do something that will prevent W. Y. Morgan be coming governor," he said. "Well, frankly, it is my opinion that if you organize an independent party this will be of More aid to Morgan than any one else and will help to do the very thing you say you do not want to do."

Washington, May 5. The American cruiser Huron has landed 150 marines at Taku, China, the port of Tientsin. to protect American Interests in that section The detachment is armed with machine guns. Official reportl received here late today, however, did not Indicate that any disturbances In. volving the detachment had taken place. (By the Ataociated Press.) Peking, May 5. General Wu Pel Fu was in control of Peking at noon to day and General Chang Tso Lin. whose forces he routed yesterday in a fierce battle south of the capital, was reported fleeing to Mukden. Chang's army is retreating in dis order toward Tien Tsin. Observers here believe Chang's sudden collapse has ended the hostilities. Routed Opponent Early. With fifty thousand troops. General Wu Pei Fu encircled Chang Tso Lin's forces outside Peking yesterday (Thursday) and after fifteen hours of relentless cannonading, machine i gun fire and infantry charges, routed his opponent, making himself master of the situation around the Chinese capital. Last night Wu's forces camped un-" molested outside the city gates whilo Chang's soldiers were scattered, hav ing retired with the main body down the railroad toward Tien Tsin or dis persed in unorganized mobs over the hills. Left Their Dead Behind. The routed army left behind artil lery, munitions,' horses and loaded camels and Its wounded and dead. The total casualties in the day's fight ing are believed to have reach from 5,000 to 7,000 dead and wounded. Before dawn yesterday Wu Pei Fu started a simultaneous attack on all of Chang Tso Lin's entrenched posi tions to the southwest of Peking. By 6 o'clock the Manchurian general had retired from Changnintien, 12 miles southwest of Peking's gates. The retreating army fell back to the Hun river and tried to hold a position-near the Marcopolo bridge, but under the advance of Wu's men. Chang's forces fled, some going on trains seaward for Tien Tsin and others scattering to the hills or plead ing that the gates of the city be open ed to give them refuge. Peking Walts Are Closed. Before noon yesterday Wu Pel Fu had advanced to the vicinity of Feng Tai, a few miles east of Changsintien, where Chang Tso Lin's troops rallied for the defense. The fighting was thus brought near Peking's walls and warning was sent te the city authorities that soldiers were about' to enter the capital. Tho gates were immediately closed, only foreigners who had been shut out be ing permitted to return. By mid-afternoon. Wu Pel Fu had captured Fengtai, thus delivering a decisive blow at Chang's stronghold nearest Peking. Soon the retiring army had been driven so far from the city that the firing was less distinctly heard here, altho stragglers continued shooting directly under the walls. AH Rail Communication Off. Wu Pel Fu's attack In this sector is believed to have been undertaken concurrently with similar drives at Machang on Chang's southeastern front and on his middle front on the Hun river. Consular reports indicated that the fighting at those places wae intense. Peking last night slept behind guarded walls. The gates were closed and barred and patrols of soldiers paced to and fro all night with fix.d bayonets. Only persons bound on of ficial business were permitted to pass. Railroad communication in all direc tions has been suspended. CLASSIFY AXTI-KLAX EVIDENCE. Officially Stated That Investigation Will I -ant at Least a Month. Los Angeles, May 5.

IV C. The effort to launch a new political party, which was made in this city this week, appears to have encoun tered a, frost. An unbiased observer seems to be warranted in the conclu sion that already there are enough po litical parties to satisfy the most fas tidious. Starting avjiew political party is much like starting a new mercan tile establishment in a city. The pro jector of the enterprise finds the field already occupied by thoroly organized concerns with machinery in good working order. Unless, therefore, he can enter the territory backed by cap ital sufficient to enable him to com pete successfully with his rivals he will find great difficulty in winning the patronage of the public. Some persons there always are who are will ing to try a new thing but the great majority prefers to stick to long es tablished firms. Judge Pollock is quoted as saying that "the legislature has the right to delegate rate fixing powers and. it ap pears to me that carries with it the right to fix wages." If so, reasons the) Sioux City Tribune, then it also ap pears that a legislature has the right to fix the profits of manufacturers, merchants, bakers and candlestick makers, and-the fees of professional men. All of this may be true in fact, but there are in existence many rights which it does not pay to exercise. r Another step in the direction of ob literating state lines is about to be taken, this time in an effort to render protection to that class of Individuals of whom BarnunP Wiid one is born every minute.- The lower house of congress has passed without a roll call a bill which specifically prohibits the shipment from one state to another of securities of a character prohibited in the latter state. The bill supplements existing state laws and provides for federal co-operation with the states in suppressing a recognized national evil to the extent of forbidding the use of federal interstate commerce agencies far the purpose of evading and violat ing the state laws. The amount of money of which the American public is annually swindled is appalling. Oil stocks, motor stocks and a hundred other stocks are disposed of to gullibl-r purchasers, which are worth no more than the ornamental paper on which they are written. The victim not only loses his money, which is bad enough, but he becomes wary of investments of any kind, and that reacts on the com mercial progress of the entire country. The law makers are kept busy trying to protect the fools from their own folly. Warnings by the government and by the newspapers appear to have little effect. Vhe widely prevailing habit among women of bobbing the hair, it Is re ported, has resulted in a remarkable decrease in the sale of combs, and hair pins, thus throwing out of em ployment many men and women who worked in the factories where they were made. The comb makers should go to congress and demand protection for their industry. Department of labor statistics in dicate that living costs are steadily de creasing. The fall in the cost of liv ing in principal cities between June, 1920, and March, 1922. the depart ment estimated, was greatest in De troit, where it amounted to 26 per cent.- In New York the decrease was 22.5 per cent in the same period, and In Chicago ZS.l per cent. The small est -decrease found was in Los An geles, where it was 14.5 per cent. The decline noted, however, is confined chiefly to food and clothing. There ha been no general reduction in rents or in-fhe cost of heat, water, light and car fares. Whq should these necessa ries remain at wartime prices while food and clothing are coming down? The farmers and the factory workers appear to be getting the worst of it in the Journey toward normalcy. THE NEW DAY DAWNS. At th request of President Hard ing, Eugene Meyer. Jr.. managing di rector of the war finance corporation, recently made a trip thru the agricul tural and livestock sections of the United States which carried him to the Pacific coast. The trip was made in order that he might make a first hand investigation of conditions and report to the president. Mr. Meyer has filed bis report in which condi tions in the agricultural and livestock districts are covered in detail. His conclusions are that "the severe and unprecedented depression which dealt such a blow to the agricultural inter ests is in some sections of the country a thing of the past; in other sections it is rapidly passing; and everywhere hope and confidence are taking the piace of despair which six months ago was so widely prevalent' The importance of Mr. Meyer's dis- covery is readily apparent in view of the fact that prosperity of the en tire country primarily rests on the well-being of the agricultural interests. To illustrate: The United States department of Agriculture has just completed a sur vey of the manufacture and sale ot larm equipment. The results of this survey clearly demonstrate the value of this market to American manufac turers. During the year for which the survey was made, farm machinery to the value of $536,945, 000 was manu factured in the United States and all but 166,626,000 worth was sold in the U:med States. The data upon which these figures were based were collect ed from 583 manufacturers whose products included all kinds of ma chinery used in planting, cultivating and harvesting, as well as machines for preparing crops for the market, and horse-drawn vehicles. Thin report shows that 88 per cent of all farm machinery and vehicles manufactured in this country are con sumed by the American farmer. This i3 significant when considered in con nection with a report just made by the joint congressional commission of ag ricultural inquiry. This report shows farming interests to be the second largest consumers of steel in he United States, being outranked only by the railroads, and the consumers of one-fifth of the coal produced in the United States, and 46 per cent of the country's lumber production. 1 These figures emphasize the fact which has been forced upon the attention of the business and indus trial world in the past eighteen months; namely, that agriculture is the basic industry, and when it is in distress all other industrial and com mercial interests of the country suffer in corresponding proportion. The Bull Moose appear to have staged a come-back In Indiana, re sulting in the nomination ot Albert J. Beveridge as the Republican candi date for United States senator. Mr. Beveridge is a scholarly and an able man, and will be a credit to his state, should he fijB elected. His value to the state will be enhanced by his past ex perience in the uuper horse of con gress. The people of Indiana can hardly do better than elect him. THAT TROUBLESOME BONUS. It is reported from Washington that senate leaders are planning to pass the soldier bonus substantially as it came from the house and that they will try to win the president's endorsement of it in that form. The passage of the bill by the sen ate will not abate by ever so littla the force of those considerations which Secretary Mellon of the treas ury has laid before the people of the country in his analysis of the bill. Vol umes might be written that would say less than his simple assertion that the bill "has presumably been framed with a view to reducing the apparent cost to the government," but that "there is no way by which the Amer ican taxpayer can avoid the burden." There is room for sincere differ ences of opinion as to whether or not a bonus ought to be paid. Passage or rejection of the bill by the senate will not settle those differences, but the economics of the problem seem to ad mit of no such dispute. If the money shall be paid to the soldiers the peo ple of the country, including the sol diers, must supply it, and he sound business opinion of the country will support the contention of the treas ury that "if a bonus is to be imposed it is far better for all concerned that it be placed upon a direct and definite basis and paid for each year out of current revenue." To do this, as Sec retary Mellon says, "will necessarily mean the Imposition of additional taxes for the purpose." Up to this time the views of the president on the matter have seemed to be in full accorS with those of his secretary of the treasury. If the whole subject could be divested of its political features a clearer view of its merits might be obtained as well as a greater degree of satisfaction with the" results of congressional action among the people. The whole proceeding In the bonus matter seems to be a continuous per formance of "passing the buck." The house, without regard to the attitude of the executive department of the government, enacts a bill and hands it to the senate. After a vain attempt to find a satisfactory way out of its di lemma,' the senate decides to send it along to the president and let him shoulder the condemnation of the public or win its approval as the case may be. In any case congress will have the feeling that it has done the wisest thing politically. Evening Story The Dissolution of J. and M. BY JANE OSBOHK. There were four of them, Jean and Jane, Maud and Matilda, and they all lived together in a little white house in Hilton and taught school in the Hilton public schools. "There's nothing to it." 'said Jean one evening after the supper dishes were out of the way, and the four had gathered rodnd the lamp that stood on the center table of their living room. "Nothing to what?" said Jane, look ing up from the algebra papers she was correcting. "Nothing to school teaching," Jean explained. "You work like a horse all day with such big classes that about all you can do is to keep order and drive in enough facts to get the bright children to pass at examination. You come home tired "And what do you get?" Maud took up the refrain. "A bare existence," sighed Matilda. "And you never meet any one," Jean resumed. "Look at a stenographer. Doesn't have to know haK as much as a teacher and she meets men. She gets married or else she starts in busi ness by herself and makes good money." "I don't care about getting married, said Matilda. "But she hesitated and took a chocolate from the box of bonbons open on the table. "Let's start in business, the four of us." It was Jane who made the proposition. Then and there it was agreed that they should go into business with a capital B. In a few more months the school term would be over. They could start the day after school closed, see how they made out, and if pros pects were good they would all hand in their resignations by August. That would give the school board time eaough to get other teachers. "Lets make candy," said Jane, who had followed Matilda's example, and was nibbling a chocolate cream. "Su gar is six cents a pound at retail. Chocolate is fifteen, and candy, that is mostly sugar and chocolate, sells for eighty cents a pound." it- n n-s-nnI thor tVicir ct-IJ-.11 lrl start a candy business. Alsi it agreed that they should operate under the name of the J. M. Company. Then some one suggested that they must have capital. They must have a -shop in a prominent place to sell their wares. They must start from the first with good equipment. They would need at least two thousand dol lars, and their combined savings made only one thousand. Some one must get the necessary funds, and it was easy for Jane to persuade the others that Arthur Hayden. confirmed oTtl bachelor and shrewd business man, should be approached. He was the town's richest man. He was most active in enforcing the latest amend ment in Hilton. The fact that pro hibition had created a keen demand for candy ought to be a good argu ment with him. Lots were drawn, and before the school teachers retired that nifrht it had been settled that Maud should undertake this quest of capital. The fates had decided wisely. Maud was aggressive and unafraid. She taught s-B boys because sne nao a urns ccrfhmand of herself at all times. Her eye was dark and steady and shyness had been left out of her makeup. So Maud went to see Arthur Hay den. Arthur Hayden did not want to see her. He avoided her, but she was Insistent. He was not especially at tracted by her brisk manner and did not feel" That the town of Hilton need ed another candy store. Moreover, his own business, tho in a prosperous condition, was in need of every bit of capital he could command. But jviauu came home with her pledge of a thou sand dollars. The next day she called again on Mr. Hayden and that night announced herself as out of the compact. "Mr. Hayden has offered me a sal ary that amounts to twice what I am making now. He wants me to begin as soon as school is over. My first work will be to sell stock for Hayden Co." The fact was that Mr. Havdcn had been very favorably impressed with the selling ability or the young woman who had actually been able to con vince him to subscribe a thousand dol lars to a business enterprise in spite of himself. Mr. Hayden called several times on the teachers and then one day he came with good news for Jane. He was president of the local board of education. They were in need of a superintendent of 1 elementary schools and Mr. Hayden, having looked up Jane's record as a teacher, had decided and convinced the board that she was the best candidate for that position. This meant double Jane's present salary, it meant an op portunity to use talent which she knew she possessed. So Jean and Matilda were sole survivors of the J. Sc M. company. One hot day in July after school had' closed they started to work in the kitchen of the J. M. company, where the temperature was ten degrees high er than it was in the sweltering streets of Hilton. But Matilda stood over the kettles of boiling fudge and cara mels with undaunted spirit. It was she who had bought the equipment, she who had taken aweek to work in a large candy kitchen in New York, she who had bargained with the wholesale dealers for sugar, chocolate and other supplies. Jean, very limp. and with tears near the surface, was behind the counter selling the products of the J. M. company to the cus tomers, who were numerous even within the first week of the enter prise. Mr. Hayden was a frequent cus tomer. Sometimes he lingered for an hour when purchasing a single box of candy. Sometimes he walked thru the well-equipped kitchen, looking with unhidden admiration at Matilda with her smooth blonde hair hidden beneath her little white cap. On such occasions it seemed as if Jean's tears were specially near the surface, tho Jean couldn't exactly have told why. Then one day Hayden had a long conversation with Matilda. He had long contemplated starting a lim-er-room and recreation center for the thousand or so men and girls who worked in the Hayden company fac tories. Now he asked Matilda if she would undertake this work for $3,000 a year to start with. Matilda took no time to consider. It would be many a long month before she could possibly take a thousand dollars salary from the earnings of the J. M. company, and stirring caramel and fudge mix ture had proved not even so inspir ing as teaching elementary school children. The next day Mr. Hayden found Jean alone in the candy kitchen. She was struggling with the candy mixing. And as Mr. Hayden stood there look ing, the tears broke out and one ran down her cheek whle she -brushed one away with a fingea that left a choco late smudge in its wake. "I don't see why you took them all away," she said reproachfully. "I've got to go on because we've got all this equipment, but I'd rather teach school a great deal rather and "I thought you were tired of teach ing," raid Mr. Hayden, drawing very near to the tearful Jean. "I was, but" "Suppose I find some one to buy the business as it stands. The small amount I invested hardly matters. Still we could cover that and quite a little more. Suppose then I made an offer for you that met with your ap proval." "But I'm not like Maud and Matilda and Jane," said Jean. "No, you're not," agreed Mr. Hay den. "I watched you ajl and studied you carefully. There is one vocation for which you are far better fitted than the rest and it isn't selling stock or -superintending schools or managing a recreation center and lunchroom or even running a candy business." "Oh." said Jean, smiling thru her tears, "is there -anything you think I really am fitted for? Really, I would n't care how small the salary was if I felt that I was really suited for it.' Then Mr. Hayden, confirmed old bachelor that he was, held two arms out and took the startled kittle Jean to him. "You are best suited to be my wife. I need you, dear little girl. I must have you. Will you marry me?" And Jean, like the rest, did net hesitate to accept Mr. Hayden's propo sition. (Copyright, 1922, by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) FOUR DANCING FEET BY JANE PHELPS GERTIE REFUSES TO SIGN CONTRACT. CHAPTER 17. Jennie returned from school trium phantly that afternoon, and she can not be blamed if she "crowed" a little as Tim called it over what she had done. Gertie was more than ever de termined she should be a teacher! 'Why if it hadn't been for Jennie she would have signed that paper. And Rosenburg could have kept her from was-kma""ying for five years- Not that Gertie seriously thought Tom Norris would want to marry her, but it was all such a lovely dream that ranch, the cows and chickens, the horses, and the great outdoors, most wonderful of all. And what the teach er had said was disconcerting. "Goln' to sign the paper, Uert. and what did it say?" Lilly asked. When she had been told she waxed indig nant: "The old stiff tryin' to tie you up like that! I thought there was a nig gar in the woodpile," ehe declared, "I knew he'd somethin' up his sleeve. They think we girls don't know noth in". They wouldn't have tried to put that over with them Broadway girls. I heard they was gettin" 150 a week not the best ones either. He's 'fraid he'll lose you. I guess Tom and his swell friend paying you attention got him scared. You're awful pretty, Gcrt," she went on generously, "and I guess he's afraid you'll go to one of the big places. If you do get a chanct, Gert, you'll try and git me in too?" "Of course I would! But there aln isn't any chance of my doing any thing like that, not now anyway. But the teacher said if he fired me be cause I wouldn't sign, she'd help me." "Gee!" Lilly's exclamation, a bit vulgar from her pretty lips, was nev ertheless expressive. To have Bome one help! It would be a new experi ence in the life of the girl. Rosenburg listened to Gertie's re fusal to sign the paper with a frown. She had told him she'd sell herself to nobody for five years. "Make it three," he already saw her slipping from his grasp. "No." "Two then." "No." "What is it you want? What do you think you're worth anyway? I'm the only one who ever give you a chance and now you're stalling out on me." "No I ain't. Mr. Rosenburg, honest I ain't, but I won't sign no papers, anyway, not that one. And I'll work hard for you just as I have, but I'll work by the week, and I want that extra dollar too." She smiled at him. Girls like Ger tie often deal with men of Rosen burg's stamp in a surprisingly clever way. She needed him, and perhaps far more than he needed her. The raise he had promised plus the added dollar would make things easier for ma, and let her buy a few things she needed. "You ain't thinkin' of leavin' me then?" "Why, no! I never did think of that." "I want you to promise me one thing if I give you what you ask, it's more'n you're worth you'll come to me if you think of goin', or if some guy in the business offers you more to leave me, you'll come to me before you do anything?" "Of course I will! I'm honest, Mr. Rosenburg." "All right, then I'll keep my part of the bargain, altho I say you're get ting the best of it." "Mr. Rosenburg, you know me and Lilly Arnold came here together. We're chums. She works just as hard as I do. Won't you raise her too?" Rosenburg knit his brows. If this Arnold girl and Gertie were chums, and he refused to raise her, wouldn't she influence Gertie to leave him? He knew Lilly was good, better than most girls who worked in places like his. Yes. he'd better give her a raise too. "Yes, I'll give her what I offered you but not the extra dollar, and I'm doing it for you, not her. See that you are grateful. Not many would do it." Thank you, Mr. Rosenburg. Lilly will be so glad, but she won't sign any paper. She said she'd leave first." "Damn these girls!" Rosenburg muttered as the door close on Gertie. "But that one's a peach." Just then Jones came in. "Well, did she sign?" the manager asked. "No, refused to sign anything! But Fve got her fixed so ehe'll stay. And Jones, watch out you don't do noth thing to make them two girls mad. We can't afford to lose them." He knew Jones. "You should have made 'em sign that contract! The Cummings girl anyway! I tell you if some folks I know saw her they'd pay her four time what she gits here." "Don't go braggin' about her out side. She'll stay." 4 "He's raised you, Lilly! Gertie hispered as they went on for their turn. "He was real decent about everythin'." "Think's we're worth more or he wouldn't have done it!" Lilly -whis-( pered back, "he's a wise guy." (Tomorrow No letters.) International Sunday School Lesson BZ WILLIAM T. ELLIS. For May 7, is '"Isaiah's Ideal for a World at Strife." Isaiah 2:2-4; 11:1-9. A Wireless, Warless World. Wireless masts are rising all over civilization, like giant fingers beckon ing the imagination of mankind. What a day for dreamers! The radiophone has outrun prophecy: already we see that it holds possibilities of transform ing almost the entire organization of human life upon this planet; while it flings its challenge and inquiry to possible life upon worlds outside of our present reach. Recently men have talked without wires by the spoken word to other men submerged iu submarines on the bottom of the sea; and to passengers aboard trains speeding thru tunnels under moun tains; and to airplanes sailing amid the clouds. The seas and the conti nents, burning desert sands and frozen Arctic wastes, have been overpassed; so that the distant explorer may bid his family good night in the familiar tones of the fireside; and listen' to the prattle of his children over the radio phone. Bolshevism, became most formid able to the governments of Europe when it began by wirless to broadcast its propaganda among the nations and their plain people. Nowadays there is nothing hidden that shall not be revealed. Man's powers and opinions are projected instantaneously to the uttermost parts of the earth. Univer sality is speeding down upon us like a beneficent spring rain. Humanity is being standardized by wireless; and the whole earth made one neighbor hood. One Speech, One Code. One of the implications of the radiophone is a common speech for all peoples. -It may be in Esperanto, but it is likely to be in English, that the nations will henceforth talk daily with one another, regardless of the mountains and waters that used to divide them. Boys in Samarkand will gossip with the lads in Cairo and Moscow and Constantinople and Demi. Switzerland and Scandinavia will, as it were, exchange neighborhood news over JJie wireless fence; while Ger man, French, Italian and British school boys will chatter together about the things of tomorrow, rather than concerning the wars and fears of yesterday. Such an era of intercommunication as has come upon the world will make a mere matter of months and years the unification of human ideas, rather than the slow process of generations and centuries. Contact creates cos mopolitanism; neighborliness removes dissimilarities. By the highway of the upper ether the soul of man is swift ly marching on to the attainment of the goals of which seers and saint's and sages have dreamed for ages. The audacity of an Isaiah, shut up of old in a little land about the size of the state of New Jersey, suddenly becomes the realizable possibility for the uni verse. Communication creates a common code of conduct for the en tire world neighborhood. Good News 'in the Air. Let Imagination run free; that is why God gave it to us. As we read matter-of-fact reports of broadcasted sermons, we may envisage the near day when the Gospel shall be similar ly heralded to all nations. Startling possibilities for missionary extension are suggested. Then remember that this new marvel, which obliterates time and space, is only one of the stored-up wonders of God, which He has held in reserve until the need was great enough and the world was ready to receive it. Our daring dreams are staggered at the possibilities of what God has still in store for us. As I recently watched the "Clavi lux," or color organ, evoke from seem ing nothingness, with awesome inti mations of untouched possibilities, such flow and form of color as fairly intoximated the sense of sight. I had a strong sense that I was standing at the portal of a new revelation of beauty. Consider the wonders that heaven must hold! All this is but prefactory to the sin gle observation, which I regard as the heart of the present Lesson, that the Prince of Peace is opening new ave nues for the fulfillment of Isaiah's beatific vision when "They shall beat their swords into plow-shares, and their spears into pruning-hooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more." i Heaven has now put earth beyond the power of any national censorship or blockade of ideas. Isolation is gone. Every people has wireless ac cess to all peoples. A small boy with a radiophone wields a scepter that Alexander the Great would have en vied. It is not only possible, but wholly reasonable and probable, that messages of peace and good will may soon fill the air, even as they did on the first Christmas morning, when the angels sanat the song that prom ised earth a nvv era. Since Good News is actually "in the air" we may expect it to settle in the hearts of mankind. Does it not almost seem as if Isaiah were looking forward to our own wireless era as he uttered the familiar picture of the sway of "King David's Greater Son "And the wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them. "And the cow and the bear shall feed: their young ones shall lie down together; and the Hon shall eat straw like the ox. "And the suckling child shall play on the"tole of the asp, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder's den. "They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of knowledge of Jehovah, as the waters cover the sea." A Forward-Looking .Faith. Doubtless one of those persons who is always taking the- Joy out of life will croak, 'This is no day to talk of peace, when hate and anger and fear and greed fill the earth. Your Isaiahs and your Bethlehem angels were merely singers. The true hymn for the time is "The devil's kingdom is coma, -111 is the news I tell; The devil's will is done. On earth as it Is in hell." So lament the "realists" who are always blind to the enduring reali ties; for "the things which are seen are eternal." Christianity "sees that which is invisible"; that s the secret of its conquering power. It is a forward looking faith, with prophets whose lyres are all attuned to the not of a coming kingdom. Other creeds, like Buddhism and Confucianism and Shintoism, look backward for their golden age; Judaism and Christianity see far ahead into a glorious period of peace and brotherhood- Isaiah was sur rounded by warlike Assyria and Egypt, and He dwelt in a time of alarms and perils; but Ilia vision leaped ahead to a wireless, warless Christ-ruled world, freed from its ancient thralldoms and limitations, radically reconstructed by the reign of the spirit oC-Christ, whose follow ers are brothers of one another and of all men. Mere disarmament is not the way to peaces men and tribes fought when they had only stones and clubs for weapons but a result of peace. Read peace comes by way of the Peace maker; and Isaiah foresaw what our troubled but transformed world is be ginning to glimpse, that "unto Him shall the nations seek." Already 'He hath put all things under His feet" including the new highways of the heavens. (Copyright, 1922, by the Ellis Service.) Dorothy Dix Talks BY DOROTHY BIZ WsrtsVa tHa-bse raid Wo They Never Take a Tip 1. A curious illustration of the fact ihat women never learn anything from the experience of others has re cently been given in Paris. An editor wished to find out if women had been taught any lesson concerning the dan ger of answering matrimonial adver tisements by the fate of the many women who had answered one in serted by a big artist, and had been lured that way to their doom. So the editor inserted the very same advertisement, word for word in the same papers that the bigamist had used, and hundreds of women an swered it, yet every one of them must have read the pitiful tale of their sis ter women, who were hoaxed into a bogus marriage, robbed and then mur dered. That this should be the case Vill surprise nobody who has made the slightest study of the feminine tem perament. Woman has always snapped her fingers in the face of experience, and refused to sit at the feet of wis dom. To erect the red lantern of warning before her eyes is to lure her on, instead of turning her back from a dangerous pathway. Because other women have met disaster pursuing a certain course does not deter her from attempting it. She always believes that she can achieve the impossible. Especially is this true in sentimental matters. Abstractly every woman knows what are the hazardous rifts in matrimony. Any girl child is per fectly aware that a woman takes her life in her hands if she marries a man who is a philanderer, a drunkard, or who is lazy and shiftless, or surly and grouchy, and stingy. She also knows that metrimonv Is far more likely to intensify a man's faults than it is to cure them, and that it is only in novels that the love of a pure, good woman changes a brute into a domestic angel.

HOUSE (From Philadelphia Public Ledger,) thought burled under some Vrivial story in the news. The simple annals of the Wood family of Colorado, which forged no further to the front than the back pages of the newspapers, irVomentarily arrested our interest. William Wood has just been killed in a row over prohibition. His grandfather suffered the same fate. His younger brother now has stepped into the breach and has announced that, if it seems necessary, he will also give his life to the cause. Prohibition may- very well be an admirable and desirable thing, but we doubt that it is worth dying for. And, in any event, the street brawl never permanently advances any cause. If prohibition is a good thing, and it probably is a good thing, it ultimately will become a part of the human creed. Life largely is a matter of clarification. In the end every val uable and important thing is retained; every useless thing is thrown away.. If you care to leave it to us, the Wood family was and is too impatient, and its methods are of very doubtful value. As you already have perceived, this is our day to be philosophical. Yes terday, we shall add, was our day to be smart and controversial. It is one of our regrets that we never knew "Nick Carter," whose sponsor has just died by his own hand, except by hearsay. Our neighborhood was so far off the beaten path that "Nick" never succeeded in penetrating it. We had a slight acquaintance with a boy in town who owned a stack of "Nick Carters." Occasionally we played baseball with him; but wc never knew him well enough to bor row his booka Our boyhood reading, we observe as we assemble pick and shovel and make ready to prospect the remin iscent vein, had a more solid founda tion. The only library to which we had access was a small one it con tained only four volumes but that which it held was vital stuff. Of all its treasures, we -liked the book about the LoriSon barber best. It was a tale of four or five hundred pages cov ered in dullish brown cloth. Some body had left it out in the rain and it was sadly water-stained, but there was a thrill sn nearly every paragraph. The barber in question conducted a one-chair tonsorial parlor next to a meat-pie shop. It was a most ingen ious chair over which the tonsorial ist worked, attached, as it was, to a trapdoor which swung, at the ton sorialist's lightest touch, to the yawn ing cellar beneath. When a customer who seemed to promise "good pick ings" got into the chair, the tonsorial iat touched the secret spring and the unhappy man was dashed to uncon sciousness on the jagged rocks in the cellar below. There, after a decent interval, the barber proceeded leisure ly to rifle the pockets of the unfortu nate customer and to cut his throat. Having despoiled his victim and seen to it that life was extinct, the bar ber shoved the- body thru- -an aperture in the wall and into the cellar of the meat-pie shop. He had an "arrange ment" with the proprietor of the shop, who later descended to cut the body u and bake it into pies. His product had a considerable vogue with such of his patrons as were discriminating. Unfortunately, the porter of the barber shop became suspicious and communi cative. The detectives horned in. the barber was arrested and subsequently hanged. We thought the book had a good moral tone. It taught us if we killed anybody we were likely to be hanged. Another treasure of the library was a papers-bound volume on the cover of which was the picture of a hand some gentleman with a curling mus tache who appeared to be about 85 years of age. He wore a frock coat, a wing collar and an ascot cravat in which a resplendent jewel blinked. The book should have been called "The Marital Adventures Tf Maurice St. Clair"; we do not now remember what it was called. Maurice had mar ried ten women in rapid succession and without due regard for the for malities. They sent him to the peni tentiary for it. After he got out he wrote the book which gave the detail of his various courtships and mar riages in a pleasing and very intimate vein. Another book that interested us was the life story of an English soldier. It, too, was a dullish brown volume. The soldier hated the army with all of his capacity for hating, which was, if you left it to him, a considerable los99ntfol Play Tnst Bonr of India (For Trot $1.23 Rio Nights (Waltz) 1.23 Lonesome Mamma (Fox Trot)... 1.25 Manila Memories (Waltz) 1.23 Bow.

He was always sav ing money against the day of his dis charge, hoping thus to get into some nice, respectable business. But in variably, when discharged, he took the money and got drunk again, only to find, when he sobered up that he had re-enlisted. This went on for more than seven hundred pages. At its conclusion the soldier had again re-enlisted for a period of seven yean and it is doubtful if he ever got out of the army. The fourth book was a pleasing volume describing Indian warfare on the Ohio. Kentucky and Virginia bor ders. Daniel Boone, Lewis Wetzel and Captain Sam Brady were about the only whites who emerged from it alive. Some of the others were killed with tomahawks, many with bow and, arrow; a few were burned at the stake. It was a good book, bound in red, and filled us with a praiseworthy ambition to exterminate every Indian in the country. It was thus we laid the foundation of a broad and comprehensive knowl edge that we achieved our keen sense of literary values. Perhaps it is just as well we never read "Nick Carter." "Nick" might have cramped our outlook.

She and I were very good friends at one time and when my boy friend would say he. was going to bring another boy over' I would invite her to come and then she would flirt with my boy friend and get him away from me. She did (this with two dif ferent boys and then I got angry and never invited her again. I have been invited to a May party and told o bring my boy friend. I happen to know that this girl will be there and I know that if she likes the boy I go with she will do anything to get him away from me. I would, like to go to tho party, but I don't want to lose this boy friend. Do you think it would be safer to stay away from the party because of the way that Eirl acts? IN LOVU. It would be very foolish to stay away from the party. Unless the boy likes you well enough to prefer you to other girls when he sees them, you might as well let him go.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 5, 1922 6 1 How Famous Movie Stars 1 I Keep Their Hair Beautiful I 1 ?Vr 71 Scrrt of J7awnj 5o& Sifty, Bright, Frtsk-Looking Hair STCDY the pictures of thrse beautl ful women and you will see just how much their hair has to do with their appearance. Beautiful hair is not a matter of luck it is simnlv a matter of care. ou, too, can have beautiful hair, if you care for it properly. Beautiful hair depends almost entirely upon the care you give it. Shampooing is always the most im portant thine. It is the shampooing which brings out the real life and lustre, natural wave and color, and makes your hair soft, fresh ana luxuriant. When vour hair is drv. dull and heaw lifeless, stiff and gummy, and the strands cling together, and it feels harsh and dis agreeable to the touch, it is because ypur nair has not been shampooed Droocrlv When your hair has been shampooed properly, and is thoroughly clean, it will be glossy, smooth and bright, delight fully fresh-looking, soft and silky. While vour hair must have frequent and regular washing to keep it beauti ful, it cannot stand the harsh effect of ordinary soaps. The free alkali in ordi nary soaps soon dries the scalp, makes the, hair brittle and ruins it. That is why leading motion picture stars and discriminating women, every where, now use Mulsihed cocoanut oil shampoo. This clear, pure and entirely greaseless product cannot possibly in jure, and it does not dry the scalp or make the hair brittle, no matter how often you use it. If you want to see how really beautiful you can make your hair look, just follow this simple method: A Simple, Easy Method FIRST, put two or three teaspoonfuls of Mulsified in a cup or glass with a little warm water. Then wet the hair and scalp with clear warm water. Pour the Mulsified evenly over the hair and rub it thoroughly all over the scalp and throughout the entire length, down to the ends of the hair. Two or three teaspoonfuls will make an abun dance of rich, creamv lather. This should be rubbed in thoroughly and briskly with the finger tips, so as tox loosen the dandruff and small particles of dust and dirt that stick to the scalp. After rubbing in the rich, creamy Mulsified lather, rinse the hair and scalp thoroughly always using clear, fresh, warm water. Then use another applica tion of Mulsified, again working up a lather and rubbing it in briskly as before. You can easily tell when the hairis per fectly clean, for it will be soft and silky in the water. Rinse the Hair Thoroughly THIS is very important. After the final washing, the hair and scalp should be rinsed in at least two changes of good warm water and followed with a rinsing in cold water. After a Mulsified shampoo you will find the hair will dry quickly and evenly and have the appearance of being much thicker and heavier than it is. If you want to always be remembered for your beautiful, well-kept hair, make it a rule to set a certain day each week for a Mulsified cocoanut oil shampoo. This regular weekly shampooing will keep the scalp soft and the hair fine and silky, bright, fresh-looking and fluffy, wavy and easy to manage and it will be noticed and admired by everyone. iou can get Mulsiricd at any drug store or toilet goods counter, any where in the world. A 4-ounce bottle should last for months. 1 MUI tv dc: n bit ncr k COCOANUT OIL SHAMPOO it i b i I SCHOOLS IN BREAK Their Departure From Control of Church Deplored by Lewis. C. of E. President Addresses the S. S. Meeting at Dodge City. Dodge City, Kan., May 5. The tendency of the Christian colleges to break away from the "organised con nection with and ecclesiastical control of the parent church.' was deplored by Dr. Frederick W. Lewis, president of the College of Emporia, in an ad dress here today before the south western Kansas branch of the state convention of the Kansas State Sun day School association. Doctor Lewis asserted that the Christian colleges could well afford to help solve the Sunday school's need for trained lead ership by extending; their courses to meet this demand. "If the Christian college severs its organic connection with the church, it is likely to become recreant to the purpose of its founders and it is al most certain to ignore its responsi bility for unifying the whole process of religious education." declared Doc tor Lewis. He spoke on "The Rela tionship Between the Christian Col lege and the Sunday School." "Many colleges," he said, "are man aged by trustees who, while they are sll Christian men, yet form collective ly a self-perpetual body not amenable in any way to the authority of the church. The history of many such institutions is that they cease to be any more Christian in faculty, teach ing or declared ideals than those which are controlled by a city or state. "One result of this withdrawal from denominational connections is that the church finds it almost impossible to maintain a closely articulated program of religious instruction." RECITALS AT K. TJ.

State Convention of S, Sec tion Meets at Dodge City, Dodge City, Kan., May 5. Sunday schools are recognized as the most ef fective factories of Americanism antidotes of bolshevism in the na tion today, according to Albert Thom son, president of the .Kansas Sun day School association, in an address opening its annual -state convention, southwest section, here. The Dodge convention is the fourth and final one of the sectional gatherings, others having recently been held at Parsons, Atchison and Salina. The spectacular part of today's pro gram is a parade in which thousands of Sunday school workers, dozens of floats and several bands are to have their places in the line of march. Three of the conventians opened with the pageant, "The City Beautiful which was given here last night, as a preliminary entertainment. The ex ception was Salina where a sacred concert was presented. The officers of the state association are attending all four meetings. "These conventions," said Mr. Thomson, "are educational and in spirational. The changed conditions growing out of the world war, the falling down of the world's social fabric in many vital points, empha sized the need of real religion in the hearts of men, and gave a great chal lenge to the Sunday school forces of the world. The great growth In Sun day school work and attendance, the intensifying of the effort to really reach the masses of American youth, shows that the Sunday school has ac cepted the challenge and is in no small way making good. "'Roger Babson tells us that what America needs is more religion. The Philadelphia North American, search ing for the antidote for the bolshe vistic tendencies of the times, declared that the Sunday school is the greatest implement we have for making safe the ideals and existence of the Ameri can republic, that in real religious education is the only real solution for bolshevism and the many other isms turned loose on the world by the exi gencies of war.

"DOST REVERE DID CUSTOM" Engineer's Greatest Asset Is a Sense of Humor, Says. Not Constructive But Kevealing Is His Jolly Conception. Lawrence. Kan.. May 5. In his speech at the All-University convoca tion here today. William Allen 'W hite, editor of the Emporia Gazette, urged the students "not to accept the order that is." "The one blessed privileges of youth Is to change things. The one virtue of youth is a passion for change. Nothing is as wicked as a conserva youth." said Mr. White. "When you get older conservatism may be forced upon you by the logic of events. The inexorable grind of life may file down your enthusiasm for a better world, but your first object in lite should be to make this World a better world, and In order to make this world a better world you must install into your heart's blood the belief that this is not the best possible world. Make This World Better. "It. is, as a matter of fact, a fairly good world, but it is only good be rtiuse youth 11 ko you a generation ago decided it was a bad world and should be made better, and it will be a bad world in another generation, unless youth, like you. with all the vigor and vision and enthusiasm f youth look upon the faults of this world, and set out to make it better. "The firs: thing an engineer should do who would improve our civilization is to drench it with laughter. (Laugh at and see what parts melt, al mere mud shams under ridicule. The plan of hooting and leering will not crum ble; the stone or iron or cement; but the putty and paint and plaster will go. Instinctively youth, approaching every civilization in which it must live, derides it. The ribald laughter of youth is the only thing that will break down the falfe construction and monstrous pre tense that the past often sets up as institutions under which men are sup posed to live. Laughter is not con-, tructive: but, being one of the pre cious gifts of the high gods, laughter is revealing. Is a Nation Builder. "Let youth laugh as it will and the world need fear no decay. Only where mirth is checked, where ri baldry is suppressed, does decay has ten to break down civilization. When the haw-haw crop languishes, then the Junele creeps in. So go to it, boys and girls. Laugh at this thing we have builded here. Our best blood is in it. "We have toiled and moiled to get the old thing up and going. It looks olid, and we old chaps are vastly proud of it. But what do we know? What does any generation know of its ewn work? Laugh blast your eyes-- laugh while we grit our teeth and data at you. and so go orf stags curs- ins you. But, lads, reverence for what we have done is the one awful menace to the structure before you. If 'it will not withstand your .'ligh ter, it will not hold up for U our prayers. 'You may fire when you are ready. Grldley!" Tho it probably has r.ot the slightest connection with his advice to X'niveraity of Kansas students. Wil liam Allen White, besides being editor of the Emporia Gazette, aiso is edt-, tor-in-chief of "Judge." a widely r- known humorous publication. So W. A. W. is preaching what he practice!.

The war wrought many changes in minds and hearts as well as in the geography of countries, and when Jack Lorton returned from France it seemed to him that his fiancee, Leslie Jamison, had entirely changed. A bewitching divorcee, who was playing a game of her own, found it con venient to add to their difficulty in af ter-the-war readjustment. Out of the terrible tangle there finally rose understanding and the realization that the high est ideals of womanhood still survive.

THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, MAY 5, 1922 i 4' KANSAS IS FIRST1 m mm 0N PR0GRAM Initial Code of Ethics for News papers Agreed Here. Plea for Continuance of Schools and Church Fight Made. (By tbe Associated Press.) Lawrence. Kan., May 5. "Within the thirty years of the existence of this association printing has developed that city. Trom a trade to a profession. ro long x is a newspaper man a synonym for poverty, and a printer convicted in advance of carrying a bottle in his hip pocket." said Roy Bailey of Saiina in the president's address, opening tha annua! convention of the Kansas Editor.al association here today. Mr. Bailey stated that the Kansas association was the first publishers' organization in the United States to adopt a coda of ethics. "By the development of this code of ethics," he said, "the Kansas Editorial association has had some part In this improvement, but the greater credit is duo to the necessities of the profes sion, which in these later years has demanded men and women of clean vision, clear heads and a sense of re sponsibility to the community which they serve. "Newspapers deal with human na ture entirely, and as a result it is al ways the most interesting profession that can be followed. This session finds the association stronger in influ-' ence, and with a higher sense of pub lic obligation than ever before. Coun try weeklies are making their owners prosperous, and everywhere the news paper has changed from a burden that must be supported to necessity that every community must have. "Since the war there has come a better understanding of the duties of citizenship, and in no profession has the awakening been more thoro than in newspaper making. "If the members of this association do no more than to continue the work many of them have been carrying on for several years a demand that In all the schools of Kansas, and in the schools of th- United States as well, only the American language shall be used they will be doing a service whose benefits will be harvested long after they have forgotten the squab ble over the county printing and have graduated from tickling a typewriter to twanging a harp. Educate the children in the use of the American language and they will absorb Amer ican ideas and become real Ameri cans. In later years they will think in American, and that is the essential thing, for a man or woman who thinks in American is in no great danger of becoming a hot bed for for eign propaganda, or un-American doctrine." Glf at Lawrence eara Mnals, Speaking Program Begins. Lawrence. Kan., May 5. With the editorial golf fans still competing in the semi-finals and finala of their tournament on the Lawrence Country club course, following the all-day bout yesterday, the Kansas Editorial as sociation opened its thirteenth annual convention this morning in the journalism buiiding at the university. Ealy tomorrow the convention will move via interurban to Kansas City, Kan., for a second day's session in PUBLIC OPINION RULES REED ChaFrman of Utilities Commission Ex plains Functions to San Antonio. San Antonio. Tex., May 5. An in formed public and favorable public opinion is the strongest asset that any public utility or business can have, Clyde M. Reed, chairman of the Kan sas public utilities commission, said in an address before the annual con vention of the southwest division of the Jt.Atfonal Electric Light association here last nisrht. Chairman Reed spoke on the general subject of "Rate Regu lation." "Public opinion and public instinct Is usually reasonably correct in public utility matters." Chairman Reed de cjared, "and for this reason no utility can disrepard the attitude of the pub lic toward its business. I do not mean that public opinion can analyze tech nical situations as well as experts, but I do say that any business, whether a utility or otherwise, that ignores pub lic opinion is riding toward a fall and a hard fall at that. The thing to do with public opinion is to meet it fairly and squarely and educate it. "The public utility, in its very na ture, is monopolistic. This being the case, the utility concern immediately meets with prejudice on the part of the public, for the average citizen likes to have something to say about where and with whom and under what conditions he will do business. The public can choose between drug stores and grocery stores. There is even a choice of railroads in traffic matters. But in patronizing the street car com pany, the light company, and the gas companv, the. individual takes what is set before him-or goes without. He pays what he is told to pay. j "However, the public has one come back. If it feels that the rates it pays to the public utility company are too high, it is entitled to 'kick.' I re gard it as a healthy sign when the public takes enough interest in public utility matters to register a protest. It may be that such interest is not always intelligent, but it is the duty of trie utility concern to educate the public to an in tell i went interest." Plttsburjr MoHque To Be Built Soon.

10 THE TOPEKA DAILY STATE JOURNAL FRIDAY EVENING, .MAY 5, 1922 HIT THE BALL HARD llets Won Swatfest From the SoIonsYesterday, to 4. Failure to Bunch 27 Hits-Kept Score Dow a. The Mets outhit Dick Cooley's So lcn at Southwestern Ltague park yesterday afternoon, and Muskogee took the trid and last gam of the aeries from Topeka by a score of to 4. The game v.as a free hitting contest tliruout but lensational' sup port in the pinches Jrept down the ecire. Both team fielded perfectly. Tooley sent Pierce, another south paw. to the mound, and while he was mauled for a total of sixteen hits and walked four more, he was doing near ly as well as Munsel, supposed to be tii mainstay of the Muskogee pitch in "iff. who. io addition to issuing live iKisses. was. touched for eleven safeties. Both pitchers came -liru with a wild pitch .but Mansel helped to win, his own. same by lamming out four hit?, one a triple. As a whole the hits were widely entered, a flock of them coming fre quently after two were down. Time and afirain each team had excellent opportunities to fatten the score, but the punch was generally lacking. The visitors ran sixteen runners oie on bags, while eleven Solons were left stranded for the sake of transporta tion. Despite the fact there were no errors it took two hours and fourteen minutes to get it over with. Habn Hits a Homer. Only three or four times were the players able to manipulate what couKl be called opportune hittins. The first exhibition of this, kind came in the first inning when Hahn, Topeka cen ter fielder, 'cracked out a home run tndeep center after Wiskeno had drawn a pass to start the local half Rose- promptly singled and was sac rifioed along by Brockskopf. but imhm struck out and Hardy suc- ctitnbed on a grounder to the infield. The Mets scored in the third when v on istaater singled, went 10 inirxi on Oorcan's double, and trotted home on Wetzel's sacrifice, fly. and took -tha lead in the first half of the fourth. Owe was down when Nichols singled and Munel doubled. Clanton hit a grounder to Wiskeno. but the play at the plate was too late to catch Nichols, and all bands wore safe. Munsel scored when Wohlstadter singled to center, but Clanton wns nailed at the home. spot. Wiskeno to Benn. Corgan reaching first on the choice. The side waa retired when Wetzel fouled to Bross, but Munse.'s run had given the visitors a lonesome margin. The ad vantage waa short lived, however, as Hardy tied the game up asain in the Topeka half when he walked, went to second on a sacrifice, and scored on a ainrle by Pierce. Both teams threatened in the fifth, but the punch was lacking, and the fr.tnie was in the seventh inning be fore there was any more scoring. Rab bitt singled to start that inning for the Mets. but was thrown out at second while Brauchle was going to first. R. Williams, the Mets' right fielder, then poked out his second hit of the season and. both runners counted when Munsel hit a wicked triple to center fi.M. Solons in Short Rally. This gave the visitors a two-run lead which they held to the finish, altho the Solons scored again in the eighth only te let the Mets recover the margin in the ninth. Strohm started the eighth with a single and scored on Chief Hardy's soaking dou ble to center. Bross walked and both runners moved up a peg on Benn's wcrifice, but just when it looked as if the. raily was going to amount to something. Pierce struck out and Bross was forced at third on a play resulting from Hahn's grounder. Wis keno had walked in the meantime and meat any kind of a bingle would have won the game right then, but the stuff couldn't be delivered. Soiid hitting gave the visitors their final run in the ninth. With one babv down Nichols cracked out his third single of the day and Munsel did the unusual for a pitcher by poking out a double, his fourth hit. Nichols scored when Clanton sincled, but two high flies retired the side. Strohm tried to start a rally for the home gang in the last half of the ninth by hitting sharply to right for a single, but two were gone and it wasn't any ute. Hardy grounded for the third out.

The decision at home base wag close when Hahn stretched his hit into a home run in the first inning. Kiehols, the Muskogee backstop, thought the runner waa, out, but he only talked himself out of ten dollars when be took the. matter up with ths umpa. But If the fi.e Is allowed to stick.. Jack Hardin ought to pay it. Nichols ia a classy catcher, a good pegger and a consistent bitter. He hammered out six hits fn the two games here. Clan ton. Corgan. Wetzel and Wohlstadter ar the. other stars on the Muskogee clufc If they are in the habit of doing every day what they pulled off here. Clanton Is a first baseman who would look well In faster company. Chief Wiskeno failed to hit yester day, bat he worked Munsel out of thcee passes out of five times up and is charged with onlv two times at hat. The chief fielded perfectly and made a couple of quick returns to the plate, t Chief Hardy, who failed to hit li: the-opening game, was hitting the ball on t he. nose yesterday and coined a double Which scored Strohm in tH HIGHER EDUCATION'S .A WONDERFUL THING, BUT- 5 AUD AOOTHER t N.

But with only one run needed j to tie the score. Hardy a mates failed to advance him further than third base. Both Munsel and Pierce had a lot of smoke but each lacked control.

And it was Munsel who caused Pierce the most trouble. Just because he cracked out four hits. kfilunscl probably -will find himself as signed to right field today. Strohm's stop of Munsel's single in the fifth Inning was pne of the fea tures of the game. It was a wicked liner which few Jnfielders would have been able to reach at ail. In addition to his classy fielding, Strohm cracked out three singles. Bockskopf failed to hit safely but the catch which Rabbitt made of hia line drive in the fifth was one of the features of the afternoon. Getting on and putting 'em down was the thing often attempted and frequently done. Six players were credited with sacrifice hits. The Mets left last night for Salina. while the Sapulpa Tanks will tangle with the Solons this afternoon. Satur day and Sunday. The Sabbath per formance should draw a huge crowd.

Steinhaucr of Peabody Asks $6,000 From Former Topeka Banker. A suit to collect $6,000 from H. G. West, former president of the Farm era' National bank in Topeka. was filed In the district court here today by F. P. Steinhauer of Peabody. Steinhauer says he and West en tered into a partnership in April, 1920, and purchased the First National bank building at Peabody for 112,000. of which SS.000 was to be paid in cash and a mortgage given for the balance. He says they borrowed the $6,000 cash from a Topeka bank and signed ths note jointly. Afterward, Steinhauer says. West told him- he would get the money from the Farmers' National, of which he was then president, but requested that Steinhauer alone sign the note as he did not wish his own name to ap pear on any papers in the bank. Steinhauer says that he acceded to this request and that some time later West persuaded him to give the bank a deed to the property as a protection. He says West then severed his rela tions with the bank, gave it a quit claim deed to the property and de nies any liability in connection there with.
