 Roosevelt Only Choice Of Prosressives
 Harold l.. Ickes. progressive nation al committeeman from Illinois, de- cIared that he favored nominating Roosevelt regardless of any action Roosevelt was the first and only choice of the progressives for presi-s dent and that he believed Roosevelt would be nominated. Word was re- ceiyed from numerous progressive state delegations that they favored lot and adjourning the convention without waiting to see what the re- publicans may do.
 George w Perkins, chairman of the executive committee of the progress siye party, in a statement made to- night, said:
 "There is no denying the fact that many of our delegates are in favor of nominating Roosevelt without wait ing. Just what will be done no one can tell at this time Personally I am in favor of waiting until we see the temper and atmosphere of the repub- hcan convention before making a nomination. I stand by the statement issued by the progressive national committee last Jannary I am here in spirit of conciliation and hoping that the republicans may nominate a candidate and adopt platform that we can endorse. think we should confer with the republican leaders in an effort to reach a satisfactory agreement have talked to none of l the republican leaders, but expect to before we get through"
 More Workers for Roosevelt ThanNAII
 Other Candidates Combined. ! More active workers for Roosevelt l than for all the other candidates com bined were in evidence around con- vention headquarters today. The effect of the campaign being made by the Roosevelt business mems
 organizations in the different states in sending telegrams and writing letters
 to delegates urging them to vote for Roosevelt either on the first or second l ballots was a topic of general discus l sion. Some delegates expressed the ] opinion that the campaign might prove a boomerang while others de- ciared that the appeal of the business men would influence many votes in the convention.

Complaint was made to those in charge of Chicago's preparedness pa rade to be held Saturday that friends of Roosevelt were planning to use the demonstration to advance the inter ests of their candidate. The charge is made that large electric signs are being erected bearing Roosevelt's name along the. line of march and that thousands of banners with Roose- velt's name on them have been pur- chased for distribution among the marchers.
 Those in cnarge of the parade de- clare that every effort will be made to prevent the demonstration from being used for political purposes.

SHOULD APPLY TO ALL HOME
STEADS.

The ruling of the United States
reclamation service as to residence of
owners of private or state lands within
reclamation projects is in line with the
recommendation SO strongly urged
upon Congress by former Secretary of
the Interior Fisher. He took the posi-
ton that the government should be
more interested in cultivation and pro-
duction than in technical residence He
urged that the entryman be permitted
to continue at his occupation until he
could place his land in condition to
make the business of farming practical
if not profitable.
Under the present plan the home
steader is required to go at once, in
effect, upon the land His earnings
stop and unless he is fortunate enough
to have a bank account it is doubtful
if he can make success of farming.
On the other hand, if he were not re-
quired to go at once upon the land
he could apply his earnings to it and
in two or three years place it in such
shape that he could move to the land
with reasonable assurance of handling
it successfully from that point with
out any other source of income.
The reclamation service was not
quick to see the advantage of Mr.. Fish
er s plan, but it has finally adopted it.
and it will undoubtedly operate bene.
ficially in the settlement of reclama-
ton projects.

certain concessions have been made
which leave the situation much less
strained, and unless the submarine acts

Blue Serge Frock

Satin is effective with serge; and of
course the combination of navy blue
serge and black satin is quite as popu-
lar this eason as it has been for sew
sral seasons past. One sees many smart
serge frocks with sleeveless coates of
black satin, half skirts of satin, sleeves
of satin, and the various other notions
favored for the modish combining of
two or more contrasting materials.
Scarcely frock appears these days
made strictly of one material It is a
fad which makes for economy and be-
comingness.
Hand Painting on Sport Costumes
The sport costume is another youth
full notion. 1t imparts delightful feel
ing of freedom, both of movement and
spirit. There is something very becom-
ing and exhilarating about the combi-
nations of vivid cOlorings in the wide
striped, checked, and printed novelty
fabrics now being used in skirts and
suits The middy-blouse costume is pop
ular with all; one of the new materials
being used for middies is an adoption
of the old fashioned jean. This mate
rial wars quite as well as its old time
blue predecessor, is reasonably priced,
and most satisfactory material gen
orally for MILDLY blouse and accompany
ing skirt. An effective combination for
MILDLY costume is one of the bright
awning striped linens or ducks, with
blouse of plain white, collared and cuff
ed in the stripes. One of New York 3
smart shops is showing MILDLY blouse
which flares smartly over the hips; the
idea is novel and attractive in it's up-to-
dateness quite in accordance with the
season IS silhouette.
The hand-painted or stencilled hat
has been fad for some time, it's vivid
parrots, chandeliers, cOnventionalized
flowers and fruits, harmonizing and
blending in charmingly with the sport
suit or frock. While many of us have
misgivings as to the durability of the
colors when the sun takes a hand, and
beats down mercilessly on their gorgeous
tones, still the idea is most attractive
and becoming, and so easily carried out
that even if the colors do fade they may
be quickly and really restored; there
fore we may go step farther and have
Aand-painted neckwear to match hat, OF

collars and ties, with now and then one

The notion is not confined to sport suits
by any means; many a simple little
serge frock has been given its note OF
chic by the addition of one of these coll
ars or ties. In hats, too, the idea is ton
ed down and made effective use of il
tailored millinery.
There are hand-painted belts OF

offering another effective way of intro
ducing a bit of color in a dark linen Oh

fective ones shown this year are OF

and lavenders, either stencilled with
flowers, or finished with beaded motifs

The Youthful Note Prominent
In Summer T Fashions
Satin andSerge Combinations F avored,
Also Figured and Plain Materials
Novel Hand-P ainted Neckwear

New York, May 2.
Perhaps the most noticeable thing
about the summer styles is their de-
cided youthfulness; this is both in line
and coloring. The straight lined frocks
and suits of serge, gabardine, taffeta
and faille, lend grace and youth to all
types Of figure. For instance, yoked,
pleated frock of dark blue serge trim
med with black taffeta may be worn by
the large woman or the small one with
equally good results. One particularly
good model worn by large woman, at
an exhibition recently, was made with
deep shoulder yoke of black taffeta,
the serge laid in deep, fiat pleats, hang
ing straight from the yoke. A girdle
consisting Of two narrow stitched straps
Of the black silk, came well down over
the hips, giving long, slender appear
ance to a rather heavy figure. A pretty
adoption of the same style of dress is
illustrated here in serge for the slender,
younger woman.

His poignant comment Wednesday up.

wins for him an inglorious place in
American history.
Not because he differed from the
president, the official spokesman of
the nation in international affairs, is
this political leader culpable, but be-
cause he maliciously and without the
semblance of justification impugned
his motives. More than that, he &C
cused Woodrow Wilson, the president
of the United States, of deliberately
trying to plunge the country into a
war for the impetus it might have up
on his presidential campaign. No pub

GOOD

In these days or suffrage move

like the following in print. which we
take from an exchange:
Newspapers throughout the country
are heralding the approach OF Mothers
Day, May Il, and perhaps the spirit
of the celebration is worthy of all the
consideration that can be given ii, but
at the same time we think, as do many
others, that dear old Dad is deserving
OF a wee bit of recognition.
The dear mother who bore you and
tenderly cared for you through the diff
ficult trials that accompany infancy,
shows her maternal love in every
glance and action. She cannot conceal
loves you dearly, but that affection is
confined within his heart and does not
radiate in looks and actions. 1t is not
his nature to be demonstrative in this
Whether his labors are in office
shop or field, II is for his loved ones
he tolls. II is his ambition to accumu
late sufficient worldly goods to pro
vide for his family should he be called
to the unknown.
Have you not seen men of powerful
physique who you thought void of ten
der passions, yet when death stalket
in their family they were completed!
overwhelmed, their hugs frames shak
ing violently with heart-rending sobs
Their grief Is often more apparent
than that of the gentler sex and more
touching TO look upon, and it is be
cause that great love has been pen
up within them.
Here's to Father. Good Old Dad,
There's not much credit he's eve,
had.
Give him hug, kiss, and say
Dear Old Dad" on Mothers Day.
