A PRoGREsslVE's OPINION

Hon Geo. G. Mathews Of Far.
I-auderdale, one of the leading mem
bers of the so-called progressive wing
of the Democratic party in Florida
in his paper, the Sentinel, gives ex-
preston to the following opinion on
the Bryan primary law, that progress
siye measure which has come in for
a great amount of discussion.
The new primary law will weaken
the democratic party. We know men
who would vote for John Stockton
in the primary if they were permitted
to do so, who are not democrats, but
they will not oblige themselves to
will result in forcing the other parties
in Florida to unite, and when they do
the democratic party will have no
walk over Intelligent people from
the north are coming to Florida very
rapidly and they will not be driven
by any such law The law will en-
able the reactionary to secure a GER
tain class OF voters that otherwise
might scatter. But it will surely breed
more independents than anything
that has ever been done in the history
of our safe Why the legislature of
Florida should have permitted n. B.
Bryan to present such a bill, is more
than we can understand. There are
many ADLER men in the body than
him. In fact, a bill like that should
not be framed by one who expects
to benefit by the coming election
Right here in Fort Lauderdale we
have seen one OF the leading men
here who has always voted the demo
cratic ticket give his politics as in
dependent, stating that no one should
dictate to him how he should vote

ART AFTERNOON AT THE WO-
MANS CLUB

The art afternoon Saturday a the
Woman's Club was we'll attended. and
the program rendered was exceeding
ly pleasing Miss Byrd Wartmann of
the art committee had charge OF the
program
A brief business session was held
before the program began, the presi-
dent, Mrs. Tydings. making several
announcements, the principal one be-
ing to announce that Miss Palmer
of the Womans College at Tallahas-
see will be in Ocala next Thursday,
and at the club rooms will give a
demonstration on the making of jel-
lies, jams, marmalades, etc, from
citrus fruits. This demonstration will
be free to all
1t was also announced that plans
for the demonstration fair in March
are now under way.

Van Hood, Mrs D. NJ. Smith, Mrs Wal
ter Hood, Miss Stevens, Mrs Ste

dings gave the names of their favor
tie pictures and short sketches of
why they loved them. and told in a
few words something of the paint
ers.
Mrs. F. r. Bridges read a very in
teresting (if not authentic sketchl on
the subject of the much discussed and
famous Mona Lisa This sketch dealt
principally with the history of an
other Mona Lisa" owned by the Yer
non family of New Jersey and brought
to this country by one of their ances-
tors many years ago, and which is
claimed by them to be the original
Mona Lisa. and putting forth a num-
Der of reasons to substantiate their
claim But Of course this is largely
myth.
Miss Wartmann read a very fine or
iginal article on How to Study Pic
lures taking up only two phases Of
study of values and atmos-
phere This was a splendidly pre-
pared article, and was of very great
interest and value to those interest
ed in the study OF art.
Miss Wartmann stated that she
hoped to arrange an art exhibit for
one day next year.
Mrs. Bridges then gave another
reading from Shakespeare, reading
very beautifully the proposal of Hen
ry V. to Catherine of France. Mrs
Bridges is a very fine reader and this
number gave a great deal of pleasure
as did also a beautiful solo by Miss
Marguerite Porter.
After the art program Mrs. Leon
Fishel and Mrs. Mary Eagleton. as
sisted by Miss Lois Ellis and Miss
Irving Bloom, served tea and cakes.

THE OFFICE GIRLS PROTEST

Three thousand young women en-
gagged in office work in this city Mon
treaD are said to be joining in a pc
tition to the manufacturers of NOV
ing picture films asking them to de-
sist from the practice of depicting
the office girl as b wantou fiirt, and
a willing victim - the wilas of her
sportive employer The motive be-
hind the petition is d lauiable one,
and it is to be hoped that the film
makers will give eed to the request
OF course the opportunity for ridicul
ing the young women responsible for
the petition is too good a one for the
faeetious and callow newspaper men
to overlook and consequently we find
our clever dailies treating the efforts
of the young women to protect their
profession from aspersiOn as some
thing excrutiatingly funny. We are
reminded of the movement of the
Irish societies few years ago which
resulted in banishing the obnoxious
Irish caricature from the stage. If
we remember Alright these same
newspapers treated the Irishmen' S
protest with dignity and respect and
even went so far as to Danish the
banal Irish libel from their own col
umns. Why the different treatment
accorded to the office girl?-Montreal

There is one question upon which
for nineteen long years / have kept
silent. but | propose to keep silent no
longer. The day has come when the
corrupt liquor interests must be driv-
en- out of the Democratic party and
out OF power.
1t is the liquor interests that fur
nished the money to debauch and
corrupt your states 1t is time for
the Democratic party to unload the
liquor interests onto the Republican
party.

not necessary that the housekeeper
should be able to calculate calories
and proteids and carbohydrates and
the rest. 1t is we'll if she can do So
but any intelligent woman can steer
her way if she will only learn to
classify foods and think of them ac-
cording 10 their main nutrients.
With the aid of this table, make out
a classified list of what you need to
furnish for your table every day for
a week. Group the foods as below:
