BABY WEEK

Plans for the nationwide Baby Week" proposed by
the General Federation OF Women's clubs for March 4th
to 1lth have extended beyond the United States. A
woman's club in the British West Indies has written
to the Federal Children's Bureau for information and
several Canadian communities have taken up the matter.
The Manila Woman's club is planning to take part
in the celebation and the Bureau has sent IT'S Baby
Week" bulletins TO Valdez and Nome in Alaska and
to two Indian reservations in western states.
Local plans in the United States for Baby Week"
vary in the different communities. For instance, Wis
consin is placing especial emphasis on adequate nursing
care and instruction for prospective mothers. In Me-
braska, a child welfare exhibit is being prepared by the
women's clubs of Omaha and Lincoln, which viii travel
among the clubs throughout the state after "Ba5y
Week in those two cities is over. One town in Mary
land is going to have a birth registration day. And an
other community in the same state is having a compete

President Wilson, while addressing an audience in
Prttsburg during his recent preparedness tour, said:
Women live closer to the heart of the nation than men.
Women feel the pulse OF the country more than men"
Louis +. Post, assistant secretary Of commerce and
labor, i'll a recent address in Cleveland is quoted as
follows: "lhere is a sense OF rightncss in worens
mind that men do not have. Man needs the woman's
vote and she needs his. Government is nothing more
than a kind OF housekeeping. Suffrage is not mere baI-
loting. The ballot is simply one expression Of suffrage"
Edith Taiaferro writes: The vote will develop
woman. 1t Will give her breadth. 1t will give her in
dependence. 1t will point the way to earning her live
lihood, for she will have voice in public affairs. And.
contrary to the notion Of anti-suffraeists, she will be
a better wife"
Paderewski, the great musician. in a recent inter
view, declared that both he and his wife were emphat-
ica'1y and entirely in favor of votes for women and their
admission to the rights OF citizenship. and believed that
a real reform would follow the acknowledgements of al
women.
Miss Elizabeth Freeman, national organizer of the
National Wonlans Suffrage association, in a recent id
dress at Dallas, Ten, said: Equal suffrage for men
and women will mean that men will take more interest
in voting and consequently more votes will be cast.
They wi be afraid that women will get the balance OF
power ii they do not vote. Men are still haunted by
that Old idea that there are about three women to a
man. rs a matter Of fact, it is about $3.50"
Arthur Brisbane, editorial writer Of the New York
Evening Journal, is quoted as aging: "Woman suffra e
will give to the nation the intelligent and sympatheric
voting weapon that it needs. Woman's spirit, Develop
ed through the ages by her care OF weak and helpless
infants, sympathizes naturally with the weak wherever
they may be. Man, poor, dissatisfied, wondering what he
can do to better his condition, can do no greater thing
for himself than to give the vote to women, and compel.
those in power to ask themselves 'What do the women
want? For the women want what is Just. Poverty is
unjust, based on the brutal concentration of mems
energy upon selfish accumulation. Women would work
for distribution. There is more than enough for all in
the United States. The Intelligence and kindness Ct
women would solve the problem OF distribution, as the

PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER HONORED

Miss Margaret Wilson, eldest daughter of the pres
ident, for several days past has been receiving the con-
ordinations OF her friends over her election as honorary
president of the District of Columbia Community forum.
Miss Wilson was elected at a meeting OF the organiza-
ton a week ago. In her speech Of acceptance she ex-
pressed her qualification over the way the social center
idea had been received.
Miss Wilson has always been 4 suffragist at heart,
but it was not until last year, after her distin guished
father had announced his views, that she permitted
herself to take an active part in the work for the en-
reimbursement OF her sex. Up to that time she had
given her time almost wholly to settlement and social
center work.

CONVICTS STILL
ENJOY Freedom;
CHASE GOES ON

Absolutely nothing definite that
would indicate that any Of the escaped
convicts will be captured soon, was
learned by penitentiary authorities at
Little Rock or at the Tucker farm
yesterday, and although it was stated
every effort is being made to recap
ture the II men who are still at lib
erty, there appears little hope of
favorable result.
The search continues through the
northern portion of Jefferson county
and sections of adjoining counties, but
although there have been reports that
some Of the convicts have been "seen'
by residents, nothing has occurred
that had put the pursuers any closer,
apparently, than they were Monday
morning, to the convicts.
The opinion prevails now that the
men will be recaptured gradually as
they return to their native haunts,
where they are generally known, and
where the authorities are watching
for their return.
