Washington, D. G., Dec. 10.-The
women suffragists brought their de-
mand for constitutional amendment
to congress again, and renewed their
request for the support of President
Wilson. The president declined to re-
fer to the cause in his annual address
before Congress-. as he was asked
to do, but promised to confer with
congress leaders in favor of the amend.
ment. The women are confident their
latest pilgrimage to the White House
will be the most fruitful of all.
The president's interview with 300
women at the White house was oil

which included the presentation of
petitions to congressman, speeches on
the steps Of the capitol, the introduc.
tion of the Susan B. Anthony amend

Mondell, Of Wyoming, and a parade.
The celebrated petition $4,000 feet long

measures for suffrage are similar, and
were introduced by Mondell, Wyom-
ing. republican; Raker, California

and child is lover of wild life of the
held and stream, the noted author.
sportsman and authority of animal life,
Edward Salisbury, has devoted the
past several years to the making of
motion pictures that would faithfully
depict on the screen the true life and
habit of the fish and wild game as seen
through the eyes Of true sportsmsn.
Each subject has been handled With
minute attention to every detail con-
nected with it's life. The hunting
scenes, covering as they do many of
the game birds and animals, lend many
thrills. Action and fidelity to nature
Is the keynote to these wonderful
pictures.
No phuse of wild life has been neg
lected by Mr.. Salisbury. from the
thrilling episodes showing the capture
alive OF great mountain lions, bears
and lynx, to the visits to the United
States biological survey. where the
different animals and birds have been
photographed.
We also see the capture of various
wild beasts and birds of prey which
inhsbit America; a California goose
hunt. the game bird of the west; the
life of trout; quail hunt over train
ed dogs, ducks, geese, pelicans, great
blue haron, and many other birds and
fish. But all together, aside from
their solid and truthful educational
value, the romance of the open, the
call of the wild appeals with an irrest--
ible power to ali young people, and
grown.ups, whose blood has not lost
all Of its red cells.
You have seen all kinds of animal
pictures from foreign lands, but these
are the only pictures ever exhibited of
wild animal life in our own country,
where admidst the scenic wonder of
our rugged mountain ranges, our
streams and valleys, some Of the most
ferocious animals and birds of prey
roam-some of which are familiar to
the public and some of which have
heretofore been unknown.
The capture of ferocious California
lions, bears and lynx, to accomplish
which their captors often risked their
lives.
Life Of trout from egg to mature flsh,
together with methods used In spawn-
ing and hatehing at worlds greatest
hatchery.
Wonderful pictures of bird life in
North America. Msllard duck is
shown from egg to swimming stage;
as we'll as the heron, cormorant. bug
zard. wild goose, Wilson snips. eagle
coot; also the bird Of mystery, the
pelican, in its home in the great pei.
ican rookeries of America.
For the lovers of good dogs, q reel is
devoted to the quail and pheasant
shooting over the champion pointers
of the west. Many beautiful spots Of
nature for years tucked away from the
eyes Of man are shown in all their
wonderful pictures. Magnificent water
falls, silent snow Glad peaks and bean.
tiful forests and streams have been
brought Thousands of miles to your
very door.
So realistic are these pictures that
the varied aroma of the woods, the
tang of the campfire smoke and the
resionous smell Of the northern forest
seem to be In your very nostrils.
All of this and more, can be seen at

 Surely the Chinese plan is more logical. In our scheme, just as the time when extra money is most needed when tse breadwinucr or housemoher is un- able to work then the doctor bin piles up Is hard the family and harder stin pretty ofen the doctor who has to wait long periods for his pay Also. one imagines the Chinese doctor probably keeps pretty close eye on his patients does what he with his oriental methods in the way or prevention
 A plan which combines the good features Of both methods is being talked about Of late t is for every one to undergo periodical heath examinations There is question the fact Chat many fatal diseases and degenratons could be checked or cured if taken in time Having a thorough physical examination eSry three months would save many a serious illness
 The death rate particularly for children, has been middle life going up Much of this due to the slow growth of diseases which realized by those who have them until they have reached point where they no longer be helped
 It is excellent plan for every family to have the physician call month look over the people and the house and give whatever advice seems wise in re- gard to health and hygiene Prevention is always better than cure. we'll cheaper This plan gives Che phy scian small but reliable income and provides Che family with the best Of all kinds of health insurance

AMERICAN GAS BOMBS"

Americans who have condemned tbe use of poisonous gases by the Germans likely receive with mingled emotions Che ncvs that United States government is conducting a series or experiments at Fort Sheridan with chemical bomb invented by Dr. l h. FoVzer: that tbo purpose Of the bomb instantaneous through the rapid diffusion of posous and that the government thinking Of adopting it if Che tests demonstrate it's further depoued that the chemists tho war department have been workns for year to perisct such a bomb.
 lt win be recalled that the last Hague Conference ua representatives Of the United States refused join u prohibition Of poisonous gass weapons of war. declaring that asphyNation was no moro nhuman than mutation. and that gas bombs might really to be more mercifui than shrapnel agents Of death.
 Dr. Fowzer. however makes such argument He aims. he says to eliminate war by making so deadly win recof from it in horror" Yet ali the inventors modes and implements of sausht- CT have prolessed the same laudable purpose.
 In view of the uniayorabe impression created in this country by the German deadly gases there may be public protests against our government sauctonlug the practice It is possible however that all the be- .uigercnts will have adopted the weapon in which case we should be obliged in selfdefense to do Likewise.

One of the remarkable changes in the political life of America is in the disappearance Of the hy phen" in the past two weeks.

The European war. with flaming of prejudice had strengthened this tendency until Che "hyphen" almost national is- sue It to represet lamentsble cleavage in the sentiment of nation which. despite Hs diverse cle ments has nearly always been unanimous foreign policy. The Germans especially seemed divided rom the other Americans and there was some tendency Of the same sort among the Irish.
 But suddenly all that has passed away. The attack Che Lusitania, the resulting action Of our gov crnmcnt has acted as sort of solvent in the melting pot of American citizenship Every alien element is dis solved out and there remain pure Americans Foreign statcmcu and publicists who predicted division and even civil war in this country if ever the question German and Irish loyalty issue, have been d.siusoued with amazing suddcnncss Our editors Of German newspapers have almost without exception sub tuod their tonc changed their viewpoint supported ,he president They have given assurance that the readers they Americans, th bitter test 1T taa, should come or bearing arms for their adopted country against the Fatherand.

 The altered viewpoint Of such IrishAmoricsns as had been led by their old anttEngsh gruGge to favor the German cause is clearly indicated by a New York man who points that 1t wos an Irish Jury that charged Che German emperor and government with 'wiluI mur der" in the Lusitania case, and who adds
