HOUSEWIVES BULLETIN
NOW REAL MAGAZINE
Everything from Markets to Menus Is il
Mrs. Heath's New Publication.

mastered ii you can depend upon regu
lar. cheap and punctual supply of vege-
| tables, chickens. butter. eggs, fruit ard
other household supplies that are pro-
duced within a radius of fifty miles
around your own home
THE farmers" says the. league organ.
ARE eager enough to send their produce
directly to the housewives. The house
wives would think the millennium had ar
rived IL they could only get their suppl x
fresh from the IA. mer two or three times
a week at price no higher than the pro-
visions are actually worth. The only
| thing needed is for them to get together
and the hest means TO this end Is a tran
portation system as adequate and as in
| expensive as that which simpiifes house
keeping in foreign lands.
Therefore, the first duty Of every
housewife who really. wants to do her
share toward bringing down the cost OF
living Is TO give the parcel post system
thorough trial. to take real interest In
1t, and TO make that interest worth while
by suggesting remedies for such defects as
she may find"
BY way of encouraging women to use
the parcel post, THE Housewives League
Magazine" invites all and sundry who
are puzzled by its workings TO write TO
the editor, and she will explain. And IL
there Is anything radically wrong with
the system the magazine promises to
take up the matter with the govern
ment."
The league has also opened A registry
"for such producers and consumers as de-
sire to be put in touch with one another, -
and asks all such to write to Mrs. Charles
n. Griffin, national secretary OF the
Housewives League.
The February number Of "The House,
wives League Magazine" will be all about
pure fabrics. 1t was intended to make 10
bakery number. and that is what is
announced In the present issue. but after
this went to press the editors decided the
pure fabrics question was more pressing
and timely.

Why Is the Official organ Of the House

Because it has grown up.

magazine, with articles, illustrations,
editorials, etc, etc, etc. Mrs. Julian
Heath is the supervising editor and Mrs.
NJ. Irwin Macdonald is the editor. One
thing in which it differs from other full
grown magazines is that the advertise
ments don't fill the larger part OF the
pages. II is to be hoped that the small
number OF advertisements Is not due l.
the fact that the league will not-it says
accept the advertisement of any article
Of food or wearing apparel which 1t does
not know to be absolutely pure.

imagine connected with the affairs Of the

on how to freshen up your menu by par

The league welcomes the parcel post
with joy as the really practical means o:
bringing the producer and consumer to-
gether. The only difficulty, the maya
zine says, will be in getting used to it.
The regulations, though they are really
clear and simple. may seem complicated

that housewives will keep on in the Old

STATE ARCHITECT OPPOSED
American Institute to Hold In
ouiry on Suffers Invitation.

Governor SulZcr surprised the New
York Chapter OF the American Institute
of Architects yesterday by suggesting
that II appoint committee TO lnVesu-
gate the State Architects office To get
material to back up It's objections 10
State Architect Herman Hoefer, whose
reappointment has been held up at the
request OF Senator Elon Y. Brown.
we told Governor Sulzer that We i'm
piled no dishonesty on Hoefer's part"
said Robert ID. Kohn, president or the
chapter What we object to Is that he
is an utterly unknown professional man
in this state. and II the Office Is to ex-
pend 100000 of public money. the people
have right to demand an architect
whom any professional architect would
want to put at the head OF his business
right here I'm New York city. Such an
architect would not merely 20 out In the
street and select any draftynan.'
Governor Sulzer told Mr.. kohn he
agreed with him, but he thought Hoefer
was just the right man for the place. II
he wasn't, he wanted TO know It.
Mr.. Kohn telegraphed to the Governor
last Saturday to postpone the appoint
ment, and on Monday, fearing that some
action might be taken, started for Albany.
Meanwhile the Governor had written Mr..
Kohn asking him and his committee to
wait upon him in the executive cham
bcrs some time this week On his return
to New York Mr.. Kohn said he had asked
A. L. Brockway. OF the Syracuse chapter.
and Edward Il. Green, of the Buffalo
chapter each to appoint one committee
man from their districts. Mr.. Kohn will
select one from New York City. They
will examine the State Architects office
and make recommendations to Governor
Sulzer without any cost to the state.
The trouble with the Office" said Mr..
Kohn, lis that 1t harbors a collection OF
outworn appointees. many OF whom ought
! TO be pensioned by the state at half pay
and their places filled by younger men
with new ideas"

NO SUFFRAGE FOR D. A. R.
Mrs. Story Denies Trying to
Make It an Issue.
lBy Telegraph to The Tribune.


Atlanta, Jan. Woman suffrage aad
political parties have no place In the
Daughters of the American Revolution,
SAYS Mrs. William Cumming Story. Of
New York. candidate for president gem
eral. who has just ended a visit in At
lanta. Mrs. Story denied that she had
attempted to make suffrage an issue.
"Of course. II must be apparent" she
said. that women OF property have some
rights and should have some voice In
making laws which cause their property
10 be taxed and under which they them
selves are governed. Many men favor
suffrage quite as much as women, but
they never will put up with the militant
type. The injection OF politics would
have a tendency to cause discussions in
the Daughters of the American Revou-
tion. and for the sake OF peace this has
been avoided.
