The President called upon Mrs. Gait
this afternoon and spent an hour or
more with her. Together they talked
over the public interest, which has
been manifested In the announcement
Of their engagement. and looked over
the newspaper clippings describing
their romance. The Presidents
habiNal aversion to publicity respect

somewhat in the face OF the womanly
interest In these matters displayed by
Mrs. Gait.
The President received a batch of
congratuiatory messages from per-

CHARTER CHANGERS
WILL MEET TONIGHT
Gilbert Pollock Will Speak NJ Length
ON Method Of Election Of Adminis-
tratfve Beard.

The Charter Changes Committee Of
City Council will further discuss the
proposition Of perfecting the charter
of the city of Richmond tonight at 8
o'clock.
When the committee adjourned at
its last meeting the question as to
the selection of members of the Ad-
ministrative Board was under discus
sion.
1t had already been determined by
the committee that it's report would
recommend that the Mayor be chosen
by the people, and be given enlarged
powers, and that there should be an
Administrative Board.
The committee has, also. decided to
recommend continuation of the BIZ
cameral Council system.
Several propositions as to the cleo
ton of the Administrative Board have
been submitted, and ii is upon these
propositions that the committee Is now
holding It's discussions.
The recommendation of the Special
Council Committee on Investigation
that the Police Board be abolished, has
also been agreed upon by the commit
tee. This suggestion was made by
Councilman English, during the SEES
SION of the Investigating Committee,
and IL was incorporated in the report
TO Council.
Committeeman Peters introduced the
resolution at the last rreeting Of the
Charter Changes Committee. 1t was
adopted without a dissenting vote.
There 10 every probability that a
vote will be taken on the question of
the election Of the Administrative
Board tonight Nearly every member
of the comuitte has expressed himself
on the proposition. Mr. Pollock. who
favors the election by Council gave no.
tice that he would speak at length
on the question at the meeting to-
night.
Judging by the expressions OF the
various members at the last meeting.
the sentiment of the Councilmantc
membership Of the committee Is to-
ward an election by the people.

frage for women. The coincidence of
the Presidents announcement OF his
advocacy OF suffrage on the same day
with that OF his engagement resulted
In many inquiries as to Mrs. Gait's
attitude.
Mrs. Gait Is not surragist," said
an acquaintance today; mot because
she opposes it. but she has never gone
very forcefuliy into any Of the issues
of the day, believing she was doing
very we'll under present conditions.
In fact. she Is rather too modest to
advocate the advancement of women
into the limelight, but Ia active in
her own quiet way in charity"
The same authority furnished the
following description OF Mrs Gait to-
day:
A Suitable Match"

people would call suitable match

Who Is Your "iired Man?''


Iowa was shocked recently
by a terrible crime committed
by a farm hand. Inquiry after
the fact resulted in the infor-
nation that the murderer had.
a criminal record and had been
under sentence in another
state. This and other instances
of criminal attempts and ac-
complishment occurring on
farms in which inquiry reveal
ed that the accused had a Grim
inal record and was wanted"
in other states suggests that
men are sometimes hired on
farms without precautionary
attempt to discover their char
acter and their past records for
good or evil. Conditions have
changed since the time when
the neighbors' sons and daugh-
tiers "hired out" Farm labor
lis hard to obtain and so the
tendency is to take what comes
along without much inquiry be-
yond ability to do a day 5 work.
And that is a dangerous tend
en- Y because as the farm la
borers become nomadic some Of
them acquire the dangerous
qualities of nomads. The ma
tive farm hand is man for man
about as good as his employer.
He is usually a good citizen
In the elder days he married
the daughter of the farm and
went to farming on a "rented
place" OR took over ",ne of
fathers farms" on shares
There are many farm owners
and leading members of their
WI communities who "got
their start" that way. But the
unknown ard masterless man
wandering from place to place
is an entirely different PROPOSE
tion and the family that takes
him in should know something
of the man; his history and
his character. So mu C h

themselves and of society in
