to his particular business. The men read the editorials and upon them largely base their judgment upon matters civic. national and international upon which they may be called upon to pass at the polls. But. and now we get back to where we started. the average woman does NOT read the editorials. She skins over the social events. she reads certain ads and an occa- sional divorce or murder mystery and there she stops. In how many homes does the man of the house leave the paper when he goes to the office? In how many homes
 where there is no man of the house do the women read the daily editorials: Mighty few.
 For this reason most women are not up to the minute on the vital questions of the day. national or foreign. and unless they are how can they expect to cast vote knowing that they have given serious matter the proper atten- ton?
 Women are more and more be- coming interested in matters of government. let us hope for the good government. hut no woman should aspire to the vote unless she keeps abreast of the times by reading the daily papers. The men who influence the trend of the times do it and profit by it. What the individual may think of the complexion of the editorials, whether he agrees with the writer or not. has no bearing on the case. The editorials in any and all papers are worth reading. T only to get a broader point of view All women should read all the news of the day every day, and all women who are interested in the doings of the world. whe- ther they desire the franchise or not should read the editorials of the papers on both sides of any question.

We would not for one momen discuss the pros and cons of th' woman's suffrage problem. Ther' are several reason for this. One very good one is that naturally We might Dc accused of being biased as we may not be able to sec the matter from the woman's standpoint. However, whether 1t be good or i'll for women to have the vote, there is ono matter that must be taken into consideration that we do know about. That IS the perverbial lack of information that the average woman has on the vital questions of the day. How can women expect to act with intelligence in the matter of casting a vote when in ninety nine cases ont of a hundred she is absolutely uniformed on the questions that her vote will in tluencc one way or another. Wo- men invariably jump at conclu- sions and 1t is said in. this con- nection that she usually jumps right. Be that as it may, no one can cast an intelligent vote who is not posted right up to the min- ute OH both sides of the question to be decided at the polls.
 A man who is interested in po- litics, be they city, county, state or national, keeps constantly in touch with the points brought out by both sides to strengthen their position. He is ont and around where he hears those matters discussed. He goes to campaign meetings where able speakers of both sides put their arguments before the voters and if he has the average amount oi human intelligence, he knows something more about the ques- tions before the people than the mere fact that there are ques- tions. But his greatest sources of information, information that gives him food for thought and helps him to arrive at some pro. per conclusion as to the reason for voting one way or the other he finds in the editorial columns of the daily papers. It matters not upon which side of q ques
 ton q paper may be, the cdi' torials arc generally worth read ing, and arc read by men on botlI sides. They help to form opin' ions. This is not confined te merely local and national issues Tic world policies of the nation: arc discussed in the editorial col

Greece, under the late King Geo. rge. received a good drubbing al the hands of Turkey. Tha: Grecco-Turkish war did not last very long and Greece did not win d single action.
 Then very quietly Greece went to work to fit herself for the re- gaining of her lost laurels. She built a modern army on modern lines. She purchased the latest
 and best equipment and, more i'm
 Dortant than all, she made an al. liiancc with certain other little
 states against the common enemy Turkey. Greece spent nearly twenty years getting ready to g'' back at the Turks. And she also helped to get others who had sui fercd from the Ottoman Empircs { acCrcssions into shape for the re- vcncc that they all wanted. These nations may he fighting among themselves now over the spoil which they took from their great enemy, but when they went after Turkey in the grst place, pulling together. they won a continued series of victories. They did this principally because they all had a grievance of ono kind or another against their big neighbor. They had felt the lash and after get. ting good and ready. they wippedi ont the insults and arrogance ot the past that left Turkey a crip- pied power among the nations of the "near east

 Some years ago Japan, in q short decisive war conquered China. Later. in much moro sanguin conflict that cost her mitch in men and money, she pushed the Russion Bear back into land from whence he came.

 Like Greece after her war witt, Turkey, it is safe to predict tha' Japan's enemies, smarting unde' their defeat arc not idle in pre- pairing to wipe out the disgrace that the little yellow men put upon them.

DEMOCRATS WILL
MAKE few SPEECHES
Anxious to Pass Tariff Bill as
Soon as Possible.

Washington, July 23.-Senate Dem

speeches would come from their side
OF the chamber. Senator Gallinger,
leader of the Republicans. was in diff
fcnlty finding Republican senators
ready to speak in opposition to the
bill, following Senator Smoot.
I'VE are not going to take up time
debating this BILL" said Chairman
Simmons of the finance committee.
IF the bill proves not to be for the
benefit of the country 1t will demon

wrong. We are ready and anxious
now to pass the BILL"

mons measure. He discussed first the
agricultural schedule.
"The provisions of the house bill, -
he said. ito admit meat, hides. wool
and so forth free, while imposing a
duty on cattle and certain other live
stock, were so clearly an attempt to
deceive the farmers that the majority
party in the senate is to be congrat.
ulated for seeking to make the pro.

WHY RED HAIR
Missouri Professor Explains
Reasons for Distinguish
ing Marks

Columbia, Mo-, July 23.-Are red.
haired girls more popular than their
sistersY IL not. then think of the
number of red haired spinsters you
have known. You will have to think
a long time before you can remember a
single Titian-haired wall flower. II
the theory Of connoisseurs of feminine
beauty is true, Missouri will become
famous not for commonplace things
like mules and "houn' dawgs," bu,
for red headed girls.
This year at the University of Mis-
souIi there are more red headed co-eds
than ever bef.re And, although they
did not monopolize masculine atten-
tions, they had to keep date calendars
at finger ends to avoid misunder,
standings.
The brilliance of women with red
hair, 1t Is said here, has been proved
by history Queen Elizabeth, Marie
Antoinette, Cleopatra, Helen of Troy.
Prof. @. B. Davenport, who has
carried on extensive research work in
eugeuics. says:
"A curious antipathy is that OF
redhaired persons of opposite sex for
each other, Among thousands OF
mstings L have found only two cases
were both husband and wife are red.
headed, and l am assured by red haired
persons that the ~antipathy exists. If.
as it is sometimes alleged, red hair il
frequently associated with a condition
of nervous Inability. this is an eugenic
xntipathy."
ked hair is a queer thing, the
authorities here say. 1t will turn up
generation after generation, then skip
q genel alton or two. 1t is a known
fact that at times the child Of two
black-baired parents develops a full
crop of red hair.
Scientists here try to explain why
hair is red. They say it is from a
super abundance of iron in the blood.
The color OF hair is due to a pigment
called melanin, which Is secreted ia
the roots Of hairs. Absence OF this
coloring matter makes white hair.
Melsnin is formed by civilization. A
variety OF organic compounds may nm
dergo oxidation into melanin pig
ments ranging in intensity from yellow
to black; the greater the oxidation
the darker the product. And iron,
when oxidized. inside Of the body AZ
we'll as out Of 1t, produces red. This
explains the freckles which 60 often
either mar Dr. put an extra touch OF
daintiness to q red haired woman's
beauty.
Red hair Is said to give an index
to character. A black haired woman
once said:
when a red haired woman has dark
blue or violet eyes and dark eyelashes
she ID good to have for q friend and
bad to have for an enemy. When
she has light blue eyes and pale lash
e. she il 'catty.' All red .haired
women are jealoua"
