will introduce bill in Congress pro-
viding for the construction Of locks
and dams on the Chattahooehee river

any cooperation needed to assure the
success of the measure is promised.
The Improvement of the river would
be a great boon to the Chattahoochee

In the event the river is improved

serviceable material are best.
An alcohol lamp or stove on which
cupful Of tea may be made In case
Of an emergency Is often treasure.
These are made 30 compactly that they
take up very little space, and enough al
cohol for use may be carried in a small
bottle. There are times and places
where 1t Is impossible to get bite to
eat, and package Of crackers and a
cup Of warm tea will often mean the
difference between comfort and ex-
haustion.
For the ocean traveller the alcohol
stove is a boon. There are. however.
many other things which the summer
vacationist will find useful. Two Of
these are illustrated here. One Is
toilet bag. 1t contains powder and
pun and Is so neat and compact that
1t may be carried in the pocket. The
bag ia made of satin ribbon and Is en-
broidered with wreath Of forgetme-
nots. The other bag. which is Of can
vas worked with a flower pattern in
cross stitch, can be opened and laid

gather 1t together ut the sides. The
handles are covered with ribbon. The
bag il fitted with sewing utensils and
materials needed in keeping the trav-
sler's wardrobe in order.
For the ocean traveller there are
many conveniences sold In the shops.
Alcohol flatirons are appreciated by
women. They have the advantage over
electric flats that they can be as cas-.

heard of electricity as they can be in
town. The alcohol is poured into
small tank at the broad end Of the
iron and supplies perforated tube
which is lighted.
Book or magazine bags which hang
from the arm Of the steamer chair by
two straps which clasp securely shut Is
novelty. They are made Of heavy
suede leather in variety OF colors.
They are a great convenience. for they
enable the traveller on deck to keep
track OF her reading matter without
trouble. They are also used by motor
lists. made MP to match the fittings OF
the car, to hang over the robe bar FOR
holding rond books and guides.
A convenient folding hat stand may
be had for n dollar. 1t Is made Of two
pieces Of wood shaped like inverted It's.
which fit together to make a firm based
stand When they are not In use they
are taken apart and packed in thin

WHE:| GOING
ON A JOURNEY
The Wise Woman Lessons Its
Inconvenience by the Use Of
Many Simple and inexpensive
Contrivances.

HE summer vacation season is
ut hand. and many a woman
Is considering ways and means
as well AS eXpedients for
making it more comfortable.
Men, OF course, do not mind the dis
comforts Of journey so much as wom-
en-. but the latter have the advantage
in that they may. without fear of ridi-
Guile, adopt for their use the many con-
trivances invented for making a jour
ney tOlerable.
The woman who expects to be on the
train overnight should take. besides the
usual toilet utilities in the shape Of
brushes. combs, soap, ETC., few sim
pie remedies that may be Of use in
case she is taken Ill. One of the great
menaces to the comfort Of the feminine
traveller is drafts. Quinine capsules or
her favOrite remedy for warding off an
incipient cold may be needed. Travel
ing at night, especially II mountains
are crossed, is apt to be chilly.
If she has long coat to slip on over
her gown it will serve to protect it
from the dust and smoke during the
day and to keep her warm at night. 1t
Is also convenient for slipping over her
negligee when she goes to and from
the dressing room. A veil to tie over
the head. one Of the heavy motoring
wells, will keep the hair from becoming
disarranged. If she does not have a
sleeper she can be very comfortable If
she slips on the long coat, ties the veil
around her head to protect 1t from
drafts and makes an imprOvised bed Of
the seat. Her bag may be laid at one
end Of the seat and cushion or cloth
ing folded over it to make pillow.
Whether she travels on the coach or
in the sleeper, 1t is wise to wear very
plain and comfortable clothing. A

How AvereIl Hartman

His Railroad Career

AN unusually interesting young
~ man is William Averell Har-
riman. eldest son Of the late
z. II. Hartman and destined
to succeed his father as head Of the
enormous railroad interests Of the Har-
riman estate.
Circuit wealth does not dazzle young
Hartman. Like Vincent Aston. he has
ambitions and looks to his immense
fortune as a means Of helping him at
tain them. But work Is his Joy. and
he eagerly looks forward to the time
when he will assume the responsible
ties of railroad kings career.
Hartman IL now finishing his fourth
year at Yale. but already he has be-
gun his business career. Several weeks
ago he was made a director Of the
great Hartman National bank and OF
the Union Pacific railroad. in the con-
troll of which his father achieved SO
many victories.
Very unassuming is this young mas
ter Of millions. Nothing could prove
that better than his mode Of life at
Yale. Instead Of seeking luxurious
apartments in one Of the new and ele-
CANT dormitory halls Hartman lives
in unpretentious quarters on the fourth
floor of Connecticut hall. which was
put up in 1850 and is the Oldest build
ing at Yale.
His rent bill there is 500 a year. and
the furnishings Of his rooms. supplied
by himself. as all Yale students do, are
In keeping with the place. although
serviceable and In good taste.

allowed. The Socialist demand is that
the plural votes be abolished and that
one vote. and one only. be given to
each citizen. male or female. over the
age Of twenty-One years.
Only week before the strike was
settled the Belgian premier declared:
