men available to do the work Congress

sion, ne declared.

eating the races in the neighborhood,
President Palmer spoke briefly of the
efforts of the association in the past.
Several months ago the association
passed resolution agreeing not to sell
or rent their property to colored peo-
pie At the time it was declared this
resolution resulted from economic rea-
sons and not from race prejudice.
Mr.. Matthews proposed that Congress
be asked to pass a law segregating the
white and colored people in the Dis
trict. This was opposed by Mr.. Eising-
err. 1t was finally decided to refer the
entire question FOR further study to the
executive board OF the association. No
further action was taken at the meet
irs.

The Confessions
of a Wife C

There is much l can busy
myself about. l want to write a
few letters, and there are some
small holes in your new silk socks
that you took off this morning."
$50 yOu'er beginning to patch
me up already, Mrs. Waverly,"
said Dick, with hug. "Do You
know, dear, think I'm going to
enjoy this marriage game even
better than 1 expected 1 should"
Then as he went out the door
he said:
Say, Margie, If I can bring
Eaton and his wife to dinner / am
going to do so. never met Mrs.
Eaton, but Eaten is the kind of a
man that will have the right kind
of a wife. II l can land his rec
ommendation for my books we're
made" Dick slammed the door
and went off whistling.
1 suppose 1 am awfully finicky,
but / wish that Dick had told me
we were coming to the Falls upon
our wedding trip so that he could
"land deal" I'd have been de-
lighted to have come, but it makes
me feel SO out of things to have
Dick forget to tell me why he does
anything and expect me to rise to
the occasion when it arrives.
Perhaps it is because he always
did these things without consult
ing me. I'M SURE I'VE GOT
SENSE ENOUGH TO KNOW
THAT A MAN MUST TAKE
HIS BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES
WHEN THEY COME. It would,
however, have made me very
proud if Dick had let me be in this
deal by telling me when he spoke
Of going to Niagara Falls Just why
he wanted to go.
And then to have him think that
1 would go over there alone. 1t
is funny and a little bit pathetic.
Perhaps, that is why tear has
just splashed down on this leaf.
1t is 30 silly of me, / know-but-
but / WONDER IF DICK WOULD
LIKE THIS MARRIAGE GAME
so WELL IF HE DID NOT AL
WAYS PLAY OUT HIS HAND
ALONE.
