township Chairman, Lillian Dyer.
Mrs. Mash took up the objections
which are usually brought UP by
the "antis,' and most logically and
conclusively proved that they were
absolutely groumdless. She discussed
the old question that woman's place
is in the home, and while she most
decidedly agreed that woman's
place was in the home,, giving the
women of Iowa the BALLOT would
in no way lesson her ability toJ
competently fill that home, but
the broader plan Of thought and
expression which would be hers
would greatly entrance her ability
to train and educate her children.
Coming from suffrage state
(California), she was in position to
cope with any questions which
mi ght come up. 1t had been told
to her that the taxes were so much
higher in California since the E.
quail ballot had been in effect and
she took the trouble to write to
Los Angeles and ascertain whether
or not this was true. She found
that the contrary was the case.
Also she spoke of the great re-
iforms which women have been in.
strumental in bringing about.

ISAAC HUNT HOME


MIR. Isaac Hunt, who has passed
the winter in California, reports
his brother Oscar, is doing we'll and
his family healthy. His crop of
lemons is not as large as last
year, but the price is better which
equalizes matters materially.
MIR. Hunt left California for Iowa,
March 18th. but stopped off at Fow-
Ter, Colorado, and visited his
daughter, Mrs. Lillian Hunt-Gilbert
and husband, who are improving a
farm near that town. Mr.. HUNT en-
joyed the California and Colorado
climate very much and looks healthy
and rugged.

THAT ELEGANT RAIN
SATURDAY AND NIGHT

A fine rain came to cheer the
heart of the husbandman, and start
up dormant vegetation generally Sat
urday, saturday night and Sunday.
Small grain and corn needed it, and
all the gardens andvegetables needed
it. The pastures and meadows land,
look fine since it fell, and the. ap-
preciable part is that it came so
slow that the thirsty earth drank it
as fast as it fell.

upon the question of good roads

stand.
L am for better roads than we
now have in Iowa, both because of
what 1T means to the state in de-
velopment along social lines, and
because good roads are real money
makers for the farmers who live
upon them and bring a real ad-
vance in the value of lands adjacent
to the highways.
do not advocate that roads be
built of brick, cement, asphalt or
other costly materials, but l do urge
the use of gravel whenever avail
able or can be procured at a rea-
sonable cost. ! am in favor of hav-
ing the roads SO graded and sur

The hero is Kirk Anthony, a coll

player, and since graduation the
coach Of his university team. On the
evening following football victory
the last of the season, Kirk and
others start out to celebrate. Late
that night he finds himself on ship
board, and when he awakens he is
without money and without baggage.
During the voltage, Kirk becomes
acquainted with woman-a Mrs.
Stephen Cortlandt-whom he learns
to admire very much. She is really
a diplomatic agent of great influence.
One day while Kirk is out hunting
he meets in forest bower Spanish
girl who is known only as "Chi-
quita.' He falls desperately in love
with her, and tries vainly to dis
cover her identity. ~.
The story of his making good. of
his winning of Chiquita despite the
contemplating of Mrs. Cortlandt,
of the clearing of his name, and of
the final decisive intervention, in
Panamanian affairs Of old Darwin
X. Anthony, is strongly engrossing
and varied by many richly humorous
episodes. @.s-s5 ~ Il - ...'E
Chiquita is by far the most charm
ing feminine character Rex Beach

vincing and fascinating type.

The picture was produced by the
