much the better; but if you have to
stay there on the door step for a half

A PLEA FOR MARY ANN

That the girls education is in part
being neglected in failure to give her
training in the judging of home eco
mics products is a point stressed by
Miss Bah Bell, woman's lecturer for
the State Board of Agriculture.
"Why is it, asks Miss Bell. that
we give our boys training in live
stock judging and grain judging,
while the girls are not given training
in Judging products made in the
home? We see the benefit to the
boys in better live stock and better
grain. We find the girls so eager for
this sort of thing that they enter the
boys classes-and often win prizes.
This is all right, but why do we not
give the girls training in judging the
things that pertain to their daily du-
ties-such as bread, cakes, fruits, veg
etables and sewing? They should be
shown the use Of score cards. An ex-
cellent time to give this training is
when the home economics products
are being judged. The one doing this
work may very easily train class of
girls to judge correctly"

WHY THE WOMEN LOST

/ Washington, d. C.--Indignation is
Expressed at the National Womans
Suffrage headquarters over reports
that are coming in from Ohio, where
an equal suffrage amendment was de-
feated in the recent election. A form
al statement from the Ohio suffrag-
lists will show that while the suffrag-
lists supported the dry cause in the
election, the drys did not rcciprocate.
An informal report issued by the suf-
fragists Of Summit county, Ohio,
states that the figures indicate that
some of the vets voted for the suf-
frage amendment.
Although there We're 1924 votes
cast in this county for home rule, an
out-and-out wet amendment, there
were only 1923 votes cast against
suffrage. Nearly thousand men
voted wet but did not oppose suffrage
and probably some of them actually
voted for it," says the report.
"And what were the drys doing?
They cast 14,72l votes for prohibit
ton, while suffrage received only o.
2l5 votes in this county. 1t looks as
if more than $500 dry voters voted
against us, or what is just as bad,
did not vote at all.
And these figures stand out in the
face Of the fact that we talked prohi-
bition every chance we got and {
all the work we possibly could for
the cause.
eve were afraid of the wet vote.
From the looks of things we might
have looked for more trouble from
those we thought were our friends.
1t really seems that prohibition and
suffrage do not go together, after all. v
The report concludes with the as
sertion that an analysis of the state
results will show similar situation
throughout Idaho.

mo SMOKING" IN KENTUCKY

The Flying Squadron, which will
soon make a whirl-wind campaign
through the state of Kentucky, will,
it is thought, take up the matter of
a statewide law prohibiting the use
of tobacco in any form. At the re-
cent annual meeting of the Kentucky
Woman's Christian Temperance Union
held in Winchester, Clark county,
strong resolutions were passed by
hte convention, opposing the use Of the
weed on the grounds of morality and
the general benefit of the people.
The Flying Squadron will probably
follow this lead and it is likely that
prohibition of the use of both liquor
and tobacco will be discussed and ad-
vocated Many states have anti-ci-
garette unexpectedly all Of which
are dead-letters as far as enforcement
is concerned-but no state has yet
passed sweeping law against the
use of tobacco in any form. As Ken
lucky is one of the great tobacco
raising districts. it will be interesting
to watch the results of an attempt
to prohibit its uro in that common
wealth.

THE OTHER SIDE.

Some time ago | was talking to a
friend in one of the big st. Louis ho-
tells when a well-known railroad law
yer came walking through the lobby
his brows knitted in deep thought as
if he was struggling to solve some vex-
ing law problem. He glanced neither
to the right nor the left, bus quietly
made his way to the elevator. AS the
eyes of my friend followed him, he re-
marked; "A sharp fellow, but III bet
he's as cold-blooded as an icicle."
Now it happens that know something
Of this mans inner life. That he is
cold-blooded when engaged in legal
battle, haven't the slightest doubt
for if he wasn't an able man and capa-
BILE of taking care of himself he would
not hold the responsible position that
he has occupied for the last % years.
But with all that he is one of the
kindest-hearted men that ever lived
and no deserving man or woman in
trouble ever went to him in vain. When
money is needed for charity or for any
other worthy purpose in his home city
his name is always found close at the
top of the list. Some time ago ! hap
pcned to be in his Office while he was
going through a big stack of mail.
Finally he came to letter which made
his face light up with a radiant smile
and he said, Excuse me while | read
this letter" After he had finished
reading it he said: "A couple of years
ago my wife and ! were on a vacation
trip up north and in the hotel where
we stopped was fine, bright-faced
bell boy to whom we became very
much attached. One day he confided
to me that he hoped TO get enough
money ahead so he could go through
Yale University. | talked to him
number of times about it afterwards
until | became convinced that he was
in earnest. When we got ready to leave
called him off to one side and told
him if he would promise to study hard
and lead clean life, ! would advance
the money--and that he might pay
me back after he had graduated and
got to making money for himself. !
wish you could have seen the joy in
that boys face. He's in his second
year now and he's getting along fine"
In another moment the smile had
vanished and he was once more the
keen. cold man Of business. This Young
man whom he is now sending through
Yale makes the fourth one he has cd
ucated Some years ago his wife be-
came attached TO little orphan girl
who had found her way to n convent
Not only did he provide her a splendid
home but wound up by sending her
through Vassar. The other two don't
know much about. When | remarked
that he deserved commendation for
these things and that | hoped the
young people would show true ap-
probation of what he had done for
them he waived the compliment aside
in a matter-of- fact sort of way and
said: "0h, get more pleasure out of
spending a few thousand dollars that
way than | would if | had it invested
in bank stock"
Doubtless there are hundreds like
him all over this great country of ours
men whom the World considers cold
and heartless simply because it doesn't
know the other side.-William Hirth in

Federation Urges
Rail Brotherhoods
to Join Organization

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 1.-THE Ameri-
can Federation of Labor in convention
here today adopted a resolution ''invit-
ing and urging" unaffiliated national and
international unions, such as the rail-
road brotherhoods, to join the federation.
The federation also went on record for
a more general application of the eight
hour day in all trades before beginning
agitation for a six-hour day.
Following is the federations declara-
ton as adopted today on the question
of six-hour work day:
THAT we favor progressive decrease of
working hours in keeping with the de-
velopment OF machinery and productive
forces, believing thereby that a decrease
in the hours OF labor will tend to a
gradual elimination Of the unemployed"
We recommend:
"1.-that we strive for a more general
application of the eight-hour day in all
trades and occupations before commenc-
ing a general agitation for a six-hour
work day. but in the event any national
or international organizations desire to
commence an agitation for a working
day less than eight hours, that they be
given the announcement and moral sup
port OF the American 4, Federation Of
Labor. 49, hR ID
"2-That the American Federation OF
Labor work increasingly for the enact
ment of laws limiting the working hours
of women and children to eight hours
per day, and not more than forty-eight
hours per week.

already exist an agitation should i'm
