In many instances our presidents have
tasted of both the bitter and tho sw,ct

also experienced the emotion of victory.
This was the case with John Quincy
Adams, Martin Van Buren,, Gen. Ben

other countries an unsuccessful dash for
a throne is frequently followed by tragic
consequences. Here IT is accepted as

PROTESTS AGAINST IDEA

Gaze.

Topeka, KAs., April 4.-The moth
ers of girls who live In this section of
Kansas do not look with favor upon
the proposal to have a beauty show Of
Kansas girls at the Worlds Fair.
Mrs. Harding, wife of 1T. Harding,
Of Kansas City, Kas, has written a
letter as follows to a woman's reading
club of this city:
81 am sure the Commissioners have
not given the idea full consideration.
There is more than one side to 1t. or
course it would be refreshing for WIS.,
itors to be received in the Kansas
building by a company Of bright and
attractive girls, such as Kansas could
send there, and certainly they would
be a great help TO the matron. That
is the side the commissioners look up.
on, but there is another side.
"What mother wants her innocent
and pure-minded daughter TO be made
a show of for the gaze of the vulgar
public? All the world will be at the
Worlds Fair and our Kansas girls are
not for the inspection of all the world
1t is all right to have a fine stock SHOW
from Kansas but not a beauty SHOW
OF our girls.
"And there is still another side ant
that is that many would be called ant
few chosen. This would leave in tn
hearts Of the many left behind resent
ment, envy and Jealousy. No, we don
want to advertise Kansas that way
but II a show is decided upon let u
send all our girls. 1t would com
high, of course, but better that thai
