SERENE OLD AGE.

Rachel Martense, who was the belle
of Flatbush in the early part of the last
century, and was sought after socially
and even in marriage half that century
ago, has just celebrated her 1929 ami
Versary being still Miss Martense. She
was born on the farm Of her ancestors,
long since built over by the former city
and present borough of Brooklyn, and
until II years ago, when she injured
knee in a fall she was active, and took
her daily walks. Since that accident
she has stayed at home, but has been
busy with kindly charities and happy
in reading books, to do which she has
not yet needed the aid of glasses. Miss
Martense has exceeded by II years the
lives of her father and a sister, who
both lived to the age of 80. What a
wonderful thing-to live beyond a CEN
fury and still be happy, and look back
on a happy life!

purpose of cooperating with the Board of
Lady Managers in erecting the proposed

With Mrs. Dodge is John A. Gade. a
New York architect, who at the instance
of Mrs. James L. Blair, president of the

Mrs. Belle L. Everest, the Kansas mem

1t was about decided that the Day Nur-

REPORT FROM NEW YORK.
Civic Improvement League Gets
Points on Conditions.

The Civic Improvement League IS In
receipt of a report on the garbage situa-
ton in New York City, from its president,
George 3. Leighton, who is in that city
at the present time.
One of the most important features Of
this problem In New York is the manner
in which the refuse is separated into three
divisions. garbage. rubbish and ashes.
According to q statement Of the Citizens
Union of New York 1t is held that II the
refuse Of cities is ever made to yield re-
turn to the taxpayers. 1t can only be when
the various elements in the refuse are
made as nearly as possible homogeneous.
For example. whep garbage or other de-
composing waste is mixed with street
sweepings, the product is offensive, and so
less useful. or entirely useless for pur-
poses of filling. If ashes and cellar dirt
and the like are free from decomposing
matter. they make the best possible ma
ter1al for filling, and as such find ready
sale.

tion selected to go to Washington, at the
Shawnee convention, and c. E. Castle.
who some time since issued the call for
the convention at South McAlester for
October 26, for the purpose of selecting a
delegate to Congress.
1t was decided to-day to call of the
South McAlester convention. A new call
will be issued, changing the purpose of
the meeting and asking for a commission
to go to Wahsington at the special ses-
sion to get Congress to allow an Indian
Territory delegate.
The most important feature about the
new call will be that it will contain a
clause specifically stating that the state
hood question shall not be discussed at
the meeting. The facts are the single
statehood men found that they would not
be able to control the South McAlester
convention. because of the bitter fight by
the Democratic newspapers of the Ter

was decided to rescind the first call and
issue another which will eliminate the
