HISTORY BUILDERS.
Why James G. Fair Was Made Senator
(wnttea expressly for The Washington He1lhJ
By DIR. L. J. EDWARDS.


When James G. Fair was serving in
the United States Senate as repre-
sentative in that body of the State of
Nevada he must have observed that Wis
itors from places in the gallery fixed
| their eyes upon him, yet he never gave
| any visible proof that he was aware of
| that distinction. He was. in fact, one of
the first that visitors asked to have
identified. probably on account OF the
romance associated with his career in
California and Nevada.
Senator Fair would have been a con-
spicuous personality in the Senate even
though he were not identified with the
Big Bonanza group and also with the
development OF California in certain lines
His was an extraordinarily interesting
personality. He was not a tall man, be-
was of massive frame, large head, per-
fectly poised upon his shoulders, and dis
tinguished for a wonderfully luminous
pair of eyes OF the kind sometimes called
speaking eyes. for they often seemed to
express his unspoken thought, especially
as he listened closely, according to his
custom. to all the proceedings In the
Senate when he was present
1t sometimes seemed however, as
though he found the Senate irksome. and
there were indications that his unfa-
miliarity with public life and his con-
sciousness that some of the leaders of
the Senate were fortified by experience
and intellect FOR that leadership In a
manner utterly different from the ex-
perience and intellectual qualification
that had enabled him to achieve greatly
annoyed him. He was a silent Senator.
in that respect unlike others who had
represented Nevada in the United States
Senate. notably Senator Stewart and
Senator John p. Jones. who were capable
OF making and did make long speeches.
Some of Senator Fairs colleagues in
the Senate found themselves at times
wondering why he was elected to an
Office of this kind With all his COL
leagues he was on excellent terms and
he gained the respect of every one, but
he seemed untitled for a career in the
Senate or any other legislative body. A
year or two ago Judge c. c. Goodwin. |
of Salt Lake City, whose relations with
Senator Fair had been for years close |
and very friendly. narrated a story which |
cleared away the mystery of the election |
of Mr. Fair as United States Senator.
According to Judge Goodwin, Mr.. Fair |
had never the slightest ambition to
serve in the United States SenSte. Some |
of those who are near of kin TO him en- J
tertained an ambition for him Of that

AS SEEN BY A WASHINGTON WOMAN

The women are working overtime
in the munition factories. They are
doing the agricultural work. They are
helping with the railway systems,
they are to be found running the ele-
vators, sweeping the streets and in
all the public utilities where men used
formerly to be employed. 1t seems
as If the men of these countries had
actually discovered that women might
be of sufficient importance to society
to deserve voice in public affairs.
One hundred and eight-two thousand
war crosses have been given to the
men of France, says Mr.. Urbain Co
hier. Women have been equally va
lorous, and quite as unflinching in
their work. But they have not had
their war crosses. Apparently the
idea is now that they should have the
ballot in lieu of this deserved reward.
To be sure, beggars shouldn't be
choosers, and in the matter of ballots
women have to play the role of beg
gars nowadays. But doesn't it give
you just a tinge of feminine resent
ment to think that it is only in times
of war that these European men, who
have the giving of the ballot in their
power, really appreciate the work of
women, and that a woman toiling
fourteen hours a day in a munition
factory should seem like a more use
full member of society than the wom-
an of normal times-the mother of

I may be too old fashioned for the ap-
proval Of the modern experts in baby
tending. but cannot forbear expressing
my views to our Mothers Club on the
popular fanacy Of letting the baby 'cry
1t out" We are told that it is good
for the baby to cry-that he needs the
exercise for his lungs, that II We take
him up he will expect to be coddled all
the time. and bad habits are SO easy to
form, you know!'
Now l do not believe any baby cries
because he feels the need of exercise, or
that the exercise he gets in that way
is particularly beneficial Crying is not
a means to an end until the child is old
enough to develop his reasoning faculty;
when he cries he is apt to have some
good cause for it. He may be lying
in a cramped position, he may be too
warm or too cold. he may be hungry or
thirsty-there are many things which
may make him uncomfortable. and the
only way the little fellow has to let us
know that something is wrong is by
crying. He cries out by instinct just as
any other young animal does.
We are not as sensible as the animal
mothers are. Haven't you seen how

NOW THAT TURKEYS ARE SCARCE

Sad but true, turkeys are going to
be very high in price for this Thanks
giving dinner. Turkeys are not easy
to raise; there is an increasing de-
mand for them at this time OF the
year, and there is also the prospect
of selling them for good profit at
Christmas time. Hence the farmers
and the poultry dealers have a per-
fectly fair opportunity of being just
a little independent. They can ask
a price that will give them a really
appreciable profit, and they know
that even then people will pay their
price. For Thanksgiving wouldn't be
Thanksgiving without turkey.
Rather absurd, isn't it, that we
should all be such sheep, that we
should feel the necessity of having
turkey dinner on Thanksgiving? If
our neighbor, Mrs. Brown, should
cay: "We shall not be able to have
turkey dinner this Thanksgiving" we
should be quite sure that Mr.. Brown
had lost his position, that the great
aunt from whom they expected leg
acy had died leaving everything to
the orphan asylum, or that some simi-
lar financial calamity had befalien the
Browns.
But really why should we all eat
turkeys on Thanksgiving when the
price of that particular bird scars till
only millionaires can eat it without
feeling extrsvagant.
The truth of the matter is that we
The Washington herald., 1915-11-17

eat turkey ON Thanksgiving because
those poor half-starved English Puri-
tans who ate the first Thanksgiving
dinner up in New England nearly 900
years ago started the custom. They
would much have preferred wild boar
or venison, sucking pigs, or even a
joint of good old English mutton. But
these things were not to be had. They
had been living on the clans that
they could gather on the bleak sea
shore, on strange, flbrous roots that
they found in the woods. They were
actually facing starvation. Then came
a turn in the tide of fortune. They
spread a feast and ate bountifully of
the wild turkeys that Providence had
apparently sent for them to shoot. So
hungry were these poor Puritan folk
that even this wild bird tasted like a
feast and they ate with relish of the
pumpkins and other crude vegetables
that the kindly Indians brought them.
But times have changed. Most of
us have no taste for venison, wild
boar is thing of the past, and NUT
ton, though soaring, we can have
whenever we choose. Turkeys are no
longer wild birds which Providence
may send throug gh the air. They now
strut meekly about the barn yard, and
we have many or few seems
to depend on the forethought and dill
gence of the farmer.

come in England and in France as a

THE VILLAGE PLAN OF FRIEND.
LINESS.
By FRANCES MARSHALL.

In a big city there is a very successful
department store that has gained un-
usual success. The store started when
the big city was a small village, and It
has grown with the city. But It has
never forgotten that 1t was once a small
store In a small town-and therein, think
its owners, lies its success.
The big store in question still maintains
an air Of friendly interest in all the GUS
toners: the customers, therefore, prefer
It to the other stores, where they find
no friendly greeting. They come again
and again, and they are greeted by men,
bers of the company, who knew their
names, and go about from department to
department witt them-not obtruding on
their Independence, as the floor walkers
of the Paris shops do, but simply max
ing them feel a friendly welcome.
There is much TO say against the cold
Bess and friendliness of the big cities
nowadays. Lots of marriages come to
grief simply because they begin in the
cold and unfriendly atmosphere of a big
city. And it's not the fault of the big
city. usually. but the fault of the people
seems cold and uninterested in its in
habitsnts.

ners. People in big cities. unless they
have much money. are fairly pining for
the simpler sorts Of amusement that cost
little beside effort and kindliness. There
is no reason why. just because you live
in a thoroughly modern apartment
house, with electric lights and elevators
and uniformed attendants, you should
not enjoy regular country visiting
spending the evening at each others
houses. with cards. music, conversation
and simple refreshments prepared by the
hostess as diversions. You don't have to
give big dinner parties just because you
move to the city; IT is just as easy to
leave an apartment door on the latch
as a house door. and you can entertain
chance guests at meals Just as well on
pot luck in the city as in the country.
And when there is a chance for guests
over night. don't hesitate Just because
you must ask the guest to sleep in a
tiny bedroom no bigger than the linen
closet in a usual house. Remember that
city people are quite as desirous OF
friendship as country people. and that
friendship even at the cost of comfort Is
worth cultivating.
