Gary. chairman of the board of direc-

"As | read the signs of the times,
said Judge Gary. there is well de-

country in favor of giving big business
fair chance.
II said six months ago that in my
opinion we were approaching the door
Of prosperity. Do not forget that we
are six months nearer that door. There
are some favorable things to be con-
sidered. In the first place we turn u
the years crops-that is something
that cannot be taken away even by
politicians"

Aim to Set Up Government Sat-

Fall Quickly

Niagara Falls, Ont, May 25.-ln the
hope of seeing established in Mexico a
provisional government that the Unit
ed States can recognize before the
COnstitutionalists have control, the
Pan American mediators are preparing
for the crisis in their deliberations.
This crisis is expected this week.
Should the Hucrta government col
lapse as the Constitutionalist army ap.
proaches, it is realized that a condition
of chaos and anarchy would result.
Tho mediators are working rapidly,
therefore in the hope of seeing estab-
lshed a new provisional government
that may be given prompt recognition
and support by the United States.
Hope to Avert New Revolution.
The Mexican delegates believe that
the government set up by the Consti-
tutionalists cannot last long, if unrec-
ugnized by the United States and the
world powers. They declare that a
new revolution would be inevitable. 1t
is i'm the hope of averting such a con-
tingency that they are relying upon
the United States to enforce a strict
embargo on the expectation of arms to
all factions i'm Mexico.
Should Carranza still be in the field
when an agreement is reached here, il
is the opinion Of the mediators that
the influence of the United States may
be relied upon to bring the Constitu-
tiCnalists to terms.
The mediators are understood to eN-
pcct that even If the Constitutionalists
de reach Mexico City before an agree
ment is reached here, the American
government will not recognize them
until principles for the pacifcation of
the country are agreed to.

White Oxen, Passes Through
Toxic Streets

Toxic, May GA million torches
and lanterns Illuminated Toxic last
night when the body of the Empress
Dowager Haruko was borne through
the streets i'm a beautiful funeral car
drawn by white oxen. There had been
no pageant of such solemn grandeur
here since the funeral of Emperor
Mutcuhito. a year and a half ago.
Practically the entire American col
ony viewed the procession from vari-
our points of vantage. 1t is a rule that
no Japanese subjects may look down
upon a royal parsonage from elevated
points. whether the royalties be dead
or alive. In strict observance of this,
every door and window above the first
floors along the funeral route was
closed, and dark.
The ceremonies tonight were the
elimination of series of services held
daily since the official death of the
Empress Dowager on April IL. Her
actual death occurred two days earlier
at Numadzu, but tradition prescrib IS
that no member of >the Imperial family
can die outside the capital, so the
body of the Empress was conveyed to
Toxic. and driven smartly to the Aoy-
anna Palace in "a closed private car
riage. At the palace she Officially
died "a few hours later.
Service in Special Temple.
In the six weeks since then, a spec
ial temple was erected on the Yoyogi
military field, southwest of the city,
where the main funeral service was
held. In the morning the service Of
Installation of the spirit" was per-
formed with great ceremony. The
Emperor, the Empress. Princes and
Princesses of the blood were present
to pray before the shrine.
BY noon crowds, augmented by
thousands from the country. filed the
streets. The people stood for hours
waiting for the cortege.
At dusk when the illumination of the
route had been completed the Imperial
coffin was placed i'm the funeral car al
Aayama Palace, and the procession
formed with a large military force at
it's head. Amid dull, yellow and white
banners and torches, came the funeral
commissioners, accompanied by their
secretaries, and court servants dressed
i'm ancient robes. Interspersed were
men bearing evergreen trees.

Mrs. Pethick Lawrence has spoken on
The WOman's Movement for Construc-
tive Peace" in New York and Boston,
where she was received with enthusiasm
by large audiences OF men and women
The talk which she has already given in
this city she will repeat at the home OF
Mrs. Christian Hemmick this evening.
The resolution unanimously adopted by
groups of women who have heard this
able suftragist talk at both of these cities
and in Washington is as follows:
This meeting halls the rise of the
woman's movement as a great new force
making for constructive peace at this
terrible crisis of the worlds history. It
calls upon the woman's movement in the
greatest neutral country-America-to
carry out a campaign throughout the
States which will direct public opinion
and organize it in such a way that it xfll
bring pressure to bear upon the govern
ments who must eventually determine the
conditions of peace.
This meeting calls upon the allies to
fulfill, when the oppOrtune moment ar
rtves, their slogan that theirs is a war
against war 1t calls upon the govern
ments of all civilized nations to re-enforce
the democracies of the world by admit
ting the mother half of the human race
to articulate citizenship and to construct
some machinery by which foreign policy
can be influenced by democratic control
1t calls for the maintenance Of all man
ufacture of armaments and a veto upon
the export OF armaments from one coun-
try to another.
1T calls for the representation OF
women at the Hague Conference and en-
phasizes the truth that women suffer
equally with men in time of war and
should equally with men have a voice in
deciding the issues of this question in
which the welfare and. indeed. the very
continuance OF the human race Is IN

who had to buy their dresses. and there is
almost always an evening dress scene in
a society play. and when you consider
that a handsome evening gown costs 800
or more. you see that 1t is very hard for
young actress, a beginner to save any
thing out of her salary.
Dress is a very large item in the
actress life. Even If she does not have
to buy her gowns, there are gloves and
shoes to match the dresses, and the shoes
usually have to be made to order. When
first went on, they didn't wear these
great long, white kid gloves and all these
luxurious little accessories Now people
think they can't do without them.
1T seems to me that too elaborate
scenery and costumes really detract from
the acting. People are so apt to say:
The doors are not real:' or those are
imitation buttons I sometimes ask peo-
pie How did you like the play? and they
say: oh, yes; the dresses were lovely"
All that is rather discOuraging," said
Mrs. Whiffen wistfully, after one has
given the very best of ones self and ones
art, and poured out ones soul before
them"
Really, I think sometimes the cos
tunes worn on the stage are altogether
too dressy. And then, it sets a bad ex-
amule TO the young people who come to
the theater. II makes them dissatisfied
and they think they must have the same
kind of clothes.
In my early days we not only wore
simpler, less expensive costumes, but we
often made them ourselves, when We
were in a hurry. or didn't want to pay
out a lot Of money; or sometimes when
We were travelling about and couldn't
find anyone who could understand how
to get the effect that We required.
often made my dresses, and people used
to think them very pretty. Once I made
a dress of white tarlatan with founda-
ton Of paper muslin. 1t had a long
train and little. tiny flounces all the
way up to the waist. 1t was very pretty,
and I thought 1t the grandest thing l
had done, and I'm sure 1 expressed the
heroIne's emotions quite as convincing
ly as l would have 1 had worn chiffon
and satin and real lace.
Another time, when played the char
acter Of Juno in one Of the artistic old
time burlesques, 1 made my robe of
scarlet cashmere bordered with a Greek
key design. It had a long train, and
toga-like drapery that hung in soft folds.
And 1 sewed on every bit Of that Greek
key pattern in black braid. I was very
proud of it"

To Gain Peace by MiLitant Methods
Mrs. Pethick Lawrence Tells Representative of The
Womans Herald Why She Is Militant.

The reason 1tiry peace moVc-
mentS haze so far accomplished
so little is because they haze been
ncgdtivc and pdssiVc.
PcaccfulHess does not mean pas
si7enesS. The man or 7UomdH 1Uho
7tTshcS to help bring about a 7Uorld
peace must adopt the measures OF
real militdney.
There is no life worth living, but a
fighting life. and that is why 1 am a
militant suftragette and also a militant
peace lover" declared Mrs. Lawrence
OF England, who is touring the United
States on a "woman's War Against
War" movement.
This sweet-faced, gentle-mannered
English woman talked in most charm
ing English accent yesterday on her
propaganda with which she is stirring
up enthusiasm in suffrage circles in this
country and gave many startling and
entirely new lights on the possibilities
that women have to effect worldwide
peace.
The reason that peace societies have
been such a disappointment is that they
have been passive and negative instead
of positive. active and militant" said
the suffragette.
My propaganda breaches a militant
championship of the weak on the one
hand and the ideals that can make life
stronger on the other"
why do you call yourself a militant?
I asked Mrs. Lawrence, for she is SO
sweet OF face and gentle of manner that
/ could hardly imagine her as an ad-
vocate of the methods Of English mill
fancy.
Let me give you picture of militancy
as see it," she said, ''and that will an
swer your question.
Last spring / was walking in Scot
land over a country road dusty with the
trampling OF a flock Of Highland sheep.
Amongst them were many ewes with
their young One lamb was lame and
Jagged behind the rest, its mother stand
ing by. Suddenly a fussy sheep dog
spotted the laggards and made in their
direction with much ado. But instead
of the panic-stricken submission and
obedience that one is accustomed to see
given by the timid sheep to the bark
of the shepherds dog, the eve turned
and faced the dog with steady and fierce
determination. In an instant the dog
stopped dead, completely nonplussed,
then turned and went on with his tail
between his legs.
''If had not seen this little drama I
should scarcely have believed in the pos
sibility OF a militant sheep. What had
happened to change q creature Of ira
ditional timidity and gentleness into this
fearlessly defensive rebel? The instinct
of motherhood had overwhelmed all
other impulses; the sense Of protective
responsibility had driven out the long
imbued sense Of fear. The divine miracle
of nature subduing nature was herein
made manifest. I mean the rising Of
race CONSEQUENCES in silly sheep above
all consciousness of itself as a unit" She
continued:
Hold that picture in your mind while
/ set before you another as compan-
ion to It. The root meaning Of the .wom-
ans movement today is the awakening
of women to the new consciousness of
race motherhood. Into the heart Of this
awakened womanhood today certain con-

The thing that makes the menu contest
so interesting, aside from the consider
alton Of the prizes connected with it, is
because the conventional Thanksgiving
menu Is usually so poorly planned. OF
course, we all want to have turkey and
cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving Day,
and most OF US want pumpkin pie and
nuts, too. Thanksgiving Day would be
Hamlet with the Hamlet left out II we
didn't have these things. But still there
10 room for originality. There is
chance for Imagination even in pumpkin
pie and turkey stufing.
The Thanksgiving menu editor tells us
that Of the hundreds and hundreds Of
letters that have already been received
there are a great many that are ex-
eeedingly interesting. We are looking
forward with keen pleasure to reading
these in next Sundays Herald. when
