portant current topics.

OF the serious intent to learn the related
ness OF the age; and to know ourselves
whole; to find that the deepest facts of
history are recorded in the unalterable
| pages of literature and are the answers
| of each age to the infinite and eternal
questions OF human life.
Beginning with the myths and legends
of the ancient world that, without the
| faith of reason, yet with a language of
the heart has left us the heritage of
hopes and fears, of songs and prayers
that make us one.
| Several programmes are arranged for a
study of the religions and ethics OF
China and her great leaders Of thought.
| A brief survey of Vedic and Sanskrit
literature in which the union of the
sacred and profane still puzzles the
! judgment of the world Is the subject

"a YEARS
EXPERIENCE

It is reasonable to sup
pose that when an indi-
vidual or a firm has pur-
sued one line of endeavor
for "a years he or it
should be tolerably effic-
lent by the end of that
time.
We have been in the
business of decorating
homes, exclusively, for the
last "A years. Decorating
is not an experiment with
us, but a life work. It is
but natural that, with the
cumulative experience of
nearly a quarter of a Gen.
4 tury, we should be as
adept and skillful in our
profession as an actor, a
doctor or a lawyer who
has pursued his calling a
like number of years, is in
his.
You, who decorate a
home only a few times at
best in a lifetime, should
find our experience of in
calculable value to you.

in the series of club programmes. A
study of the drama is beautifully out
ed-comprehensive and yet so care
fully selected as never to be open to the
charge of .'heaviness." Ten minutes, by
the way, will be given each day to words
and their usage; this drill it is expected
will be a great benefit.
The history of the drama is first dis
cussed and drama is divided into the
various types: the religious drama. mod
ern and mediaevaL Everyman,' the
great morality play, and ''Magda" are
among the plays to be studied in detail.
Bernard Shaw is one of the playwrights
to receive critical attention. A pro-
granlme which exemplifies the work of
the club deals with Shaw's works thus:
Bernard Shaw (a), The man; OBJ, his art;
(c). his significance. Discussion with
leader: What constitutes a moral play?
Recent successful plays will be consid-
cred at several of the meetings. The
members of the Edgewood are Mrs. J. r.

CABINET LADIES
DENY RUMORED
SOCIAL STRIFE
Cabinet Officers Wife Says Report
Is Base Slander-Rush of So
cial Duties Force Cut
in Calls

Washington. November 21.-There ie
to be no social war in official circles
and all previous reports of such a
vicious struggle between wives of cab
met officials and the helpamtes Of
members of the House are declared To
be the sheerest nonsense by a cabinet
officers wife, who deemed the rumors
of sufficient Importance to warrant a
statement calculated to lay them al
rest.
According to the original reports of
the trouble the wives of representa-
tives had been stricken from calling
lists of the cabinet group of women
because the latter had deemed it i'm
possible to meet all the social demands
made upon them.
This, today was denied as a base
slander by the cabinet officers wife,
who declined to reveal her identity at
this time.
I'VE called on the ladies of the Sem
ate last spring" she explained, he
cause the Senate had confirmed our
husbands appointments, and while we
were house hunting and more or less
overwhelmed by our new duties we
had no time to make any calls except
ing those that were Immediately nee
| essary. We had no idea that any Of
fense would be given by this. We all
expected that the extra session would
be short and that with the beginning
of the new session we would all be
ready to take up our regular social
duties"

Carranza's Position

Nogales, Arlz., November 21-It was
learned today from authoritative sources
that one of the principal reasons why the
conferences here between William Bayard
Hale, President Wilson's personal repre-
sentative, and General Carranza, consti-
tutionalist leader, broke up, was the fail
ure of Carranza to give the American
|goyernment assurances that accepted rules
of civilized warfare would be observed
by insurrectionists If they were allowed
10 import firearms and ammunition sup
plies.
Carranza, 1t was understood, was not in
4 position to give these assurances, be-
cause of inability to control the generals
In the field.
The first indication that the constitu-
tionalists could not meet this demand
came, ii was said, when Carranza alb
sented himself from the conference, giving
illness as an excuse. After his second
failure to keep the appointment Hale re-
fused to confer with subordipates.
Although Hale declined to accept repeat
Nd invitations from Carranzas subordi-
mates to discus sthe situation informally
after the generals departure he was said

left for Tucson that he would meet Car
ranza personally anywhere If the con-
stitutionalist leader so requested.
