The American City,"

One of the best magazines dealing
with municipal problems which has
yet come to the desk of the editor is
the "American City," the women's

is devoted to women and Minnesota
is we'll represented by Frances Squire

number appear to be authorities on
their subjects.

No Vacation Season IN Politics.

Now that both big parties iIavc set.
tied the question of who's to head their
respective tickets the campaign is on
with go and gusto. There have been
Il number OF political surprises. which.
with the unusual situation on both
sides lasting until the conventions in
Chicago and Baltimore, kept the pub
lie guessing. While guessing so far as
the candidates is concerned is a thing
of the past, leaders are working like
Trojans in all the states. and as the
summer advances the fight will grow
warmer, like the weather. The canui-
dates already have brought ont all
their heavy guns for use on the stump.
m there is no gainsaying that there
will be plenty of ~pyrotechnics before
election. There are the same old pro-
dictions as to the result. the same oil
Wagers and the same old tooth and
nail party fight that mark every presi-
dental year. The two parties prccon-
vention struggle was fast and furious,
and now that it's stumping time the
battle is just as hot. Yet after all the
people will render the important vcr-
dict the first Tuesday after the first
Monday Of November. and there are
indications that the number Of stay

be smaller than usual.

such children do not continue to seek
