Germany's greatest war hero, Capt.
Paul Koenig, was smilingIy silent

however, and when asked
what would be the latest day for the
man to keep the appointment, he said
Thursday.
The captain came up from the state
pier this afternoon in Paul Hilken's

Owe are out looking at the sights

A big crowd of sightseers buzzed
around the state pier, despite the rain

Our National Flower /.

The club woman of the land, as
sembled in New York at the biennial
in May, adopted the laurel as the ma
tional flower, the United States hav-
ing none. The first suggestion pre-
sented was the mountain laurel, but,
after discussion, mountain" was ELI
minated and laurel" adopted as suit
ed best to every state in the union.
Mrs. William Wauters, chairman OF
conservation of New Jersey Fedora

flower for the United States will es-
tablish an American standard of art,
whereas now we borrow from the
standards of all nations.

these floral emblems been adopted.
Unheralded and unannounced they

people.

of the colors in our flag; the red for
courage, the white for purity, and the
leaves combining as they do yellow
for wisdom, and blue for truth, blend
ed together forming the green of
fruitfunesS, and surely typical of our
country. The seed pod on opening,
forms perfected nve-pointed star.
TIE flower is most wonderfully form
ed, like ehaIice, with five deIicately
curved edges, the blossoms clustered
together like the constellation Of the
states, sometimes forty-niae on one
stem. "The Union Forever" as a
veteran said or counting them.
The laurel grows profusely in the
thirteen original states, and can be
made to grow anywhere. Itisa sturdy
shrub, growing to the height OF a tree
in some places. The writer has stood
under trees OF laurel in New Jersey
and New York that were much taller
than peach trees, and were radiantly
lovely with their clusters of rosy
bloom. The laurel does not depend
upon the bees for fertilization, having
an internal mechanism that throws the
pollen on its own pistil; like America,
having all its resources within its owu
borders. The laurel has never been
used as the national emblem of any
other land, though the laurel
is the plant mentioned in the highest
terms in all history. The American
variety is eminently fitting to repre-
sent this land of ours, that has "won
its laurels" in many ways. II was
used historically during revolutionary
days, for it was on April 2l, 1889,
that George Washington passed un-
der arches of laurel raised in his hon
or by the patriots of Trenton, and
where white robed girls strewed
branches of it in his path, on his way
to the first Inauguration as president.
Last spring, on April 81, the presi-
dent and officers OF the New Jersey
State Federation planted l3 laurel
shrubs on the Lincoln highway in
Trenton in memory of that event, un-
der the auspices of the conservation
department.
Admiral Dewey, who was instru-
mental in having the "Star-Spangled
Banner" adopted as the national air,
was much interested in the laurel as a
national flower. He said; "The lau-
rel is the most honored as well as the
most ancient of plants and is men,
toned in the Bible"
So united body Of women have
accepted a dignifed, appropriate,
beautiful and classic national flower
, for America. -

BIRMINGHAM MOTOR
 AND COUNTRY CLUB FOR MEMBERS ONLY
Popular Club Has Proven So Attractive That Directors Have Been Compelled to
 Enforce Club Rules

Genuine interest and enthusiasm have been shown in the beautiful Birmingham Motor and Country club from it's very beginning. This interest has constantly increased, until now it has indeed reached zenith, as a result of the recent sue cessful campaign for new members, As a result of the membership campaign, several hundred new and enthusiastic members have been enrolled into the ranks of a club which is nowhere sur passed for natural beauty and location.
 While the membership campaign was in progress the directors were by no means forgetful of the improvements at the club, and these were in progress with all possible haste. The boathouse and dancing pavilion on the lake shore have been completed, and have already been the scenes of gay and festive occasions, in which the social whirl of Birmingham pivoted. In fact, the attractions of the club have been so enticing that the d1- rectors have been compelled to enforce the rule that no persons other than mem bers shall be admitted to the club grounds. Cards are furnished to the members each month. and these must be shown at the entrance to the club grounds before admission will be granted. Below is a letter which was sent out by the directors to all of the members of the club:

BRIDE OF MONTH
 TAKES OWN LIFE
Saying She Alone Is to Blame for Deed

Sheffield, July 22,-(Special.) )-Mrs. Ada Landrum Jones, age 22, a bride of a month, ended her life at her home six miles west of Florence yesterday by talk ing morphine and chloroform. She was found by her husband, David Jones, substantial farmer of Lauderdale county, with glass of choloroform on her chest. The bed clothes were pulled up over her head to confine the chloroform fumes, and an empty morphine bottle was on chair beside the bed. On the chair lay an unsigned note, which said: Nobody to blame but me I am not satisfied, and don't care to live any longer" It is said Mrs. Jones was still suffering from the effects of, an operation for appendi- citis, and it is thought her suicide was due to despondency from this cause, as there had been nothing to cloud her brief marriage life. Mrs. Jones had for merly been married to William Risner, whom she had divorced. She was the daughter of Sam Landrum of East Flor ence,

 There were women in overalls from mu- milton factories, nurses, chauffeurs, street car conductors railroad workers and ag- ricultural laborers. In the procession also were floats in the form of emblematic memorials to Earl Kitchener and the sol diers and sailors who have been killed in the war. Other women impersonated de- tachments of troops from the British do- minions and the allies. At the conclusion of the pageant wreaths were deposited on the monuments of Wellington and Nelson

To the Democrats Of Iowa.

A general conference of all the Demo-
Gratis of the State is hereby called to
be held in Des Moines on Saturday,
April 18th, at loo p. m. at the Slavery
hotel.
This conference is for the purpose OF
considering and discussing candidates
for governor and for other state offices.
Also other matters of general interest
to the party will be discussed and con-
sldered at this time.
This conference is deemed necessary
on account of the short time between
this date and the date on which noml-
nation papers of candidates for the
state offices must be filed with the
Secretary of State.
It is imperative that we have candi-
dates in the field for every such office,
and that their nomination papers be
circulated and filed in order that there
NAV be no vacancies on our ticket.
Every Democrat in Iowa who is IN
terested in the welfare of the party Is
invited and urged to be present to take
part in this conference.

Pre,ident's denomination Assured.

It is now certain that President Will
son will be renominated by reclamation.
No other name will be presented to the
convention. The platform will endorse
his administration and the record made
bv the democratic congress. The dlt-
ferences, such as may exist, between
the president and congress, will be
compromised and the party will present
q united front.
It is a remarkable record of achieve
ment, nothing to compare with II IN
number and importance of reforms ac-
complished. Where republican leaders
have been wrong the president and
the democratic congress have been
right. The republican leaders have
opposed all that has been dc.e in favor
Of lower tariff rates, an income tax,
currency reform and antitrust legisla-
ton. They have insisted on war with
Mexico and even want to enter the
European war. Where the president
has conceded more than he should to
the scaredness program, the republican
leaders have demanded even more, SO
that the President is nearer to the peo-
ple than the republican leaders. Let
every democrat get ready for the cam
paign and go to work.

"The German chancellor wants us

Reiterating that the entente allies

"The chancellor first misquotes my

Great Britain and France entered the
war not to strangle Germany or wipe
her off the may of Europe; not to de-
stroy or mutilate her national life;
certainly not to interfere with, to use
the chancellor's language, the free ex.
