Mr.. Mudd's Record

A summary has been prepared at the
instance of the National Democratic
Congressional Committee, showing the
votes of the several Congressman upon
the different measures submitted to
them during the recent session. Mr..
| Mudd's record is of particular interest
to the voters of the 5th Congressiona al
| District. An examination of the record
shows that there were sixty-one re-
corded votes: On seventeen different
occasions Mr.. Mudd did not vote at all.
Once he answered present" and once
he was paired, leaving him actively
participating in these votes of the
| House forty-two times out of sixty-one,
or in other words, absent one-third of
| the time.
Among the more interesting votes
cast by him may be mentioned the fol-
lowing: There was measure before
| Congress which was more bitterly
antagonized by the labor organizations
because of its claimed inhumanity to
government employees then what was
known as the Stop-Watch amendment.
Members of Congress were besieged
with thousands of kilograms urging
their support or opposition to thi s
amendment and although it.was defeat
ed, Mr.. Mudd did not vote on the pro
position.
Another more important proposition,
from the standpoint of public interest
and one which was antagonized by the
Bethlehem Steel monopoly, which it
fought most vigorously, was a provi-
sion establishing an Armor-P Plate Fac
tory. MIR. Mudd voted against this
proposition, thereby voting to leave
the manufacture of Armor-Plate en-
tirely in the hands of private concern
which worked its employees in steel
mills ten to twelve hours a day and
often seven days in the week.
Mr.. Mudd voted to take up and to
put upon is passage over Speaker
Clark,s decision ruling it out of order
the Sterling amendment to the Railway
Mems Eight Hour Bill under which
amendment under certain circumstances
railway employees, guilty simply #
the act of striking, would be sent to
Jail as criminals.
Congressman Lewis endeavored t O
raise the limit under the Parcels Post
Bill to one hundred pounds. This pro
position Mr.. Mudd voted against,
thereby voting to restrict the possible
operations of the Parcels Post.

.BEAUTIFYING
THE PAR AS0

Parasols do not differ radically in
shape or coloring this season from
those OF last, but they are following
in the footsteps of other fashions by
taking unto themselves a multiplicity
Of trimmings. Almost every sort of
trimming that is used on frocks will
be repeated in the parasol.
You may puff, shir, smock, en-
broder, bead, ruffie. paint, applique
and frill the new parasol.
one way of changing the appear
ance or a solid parasol is to cover il
with square of new material, pre-
ferably, chiffon or lace-edged silk.
Make a hole in the center of the
square for the ferrule to pass through.
Then just tack the silk to the old foun-
dation at intervals around the edge.
As fluffy effects are now in evidence
again, you will have a good chance to
cover the old parasol with row after
row of lace ruffles, or even of picoted
silk or of ribbon.
Ostrich around the edge of several
new parasols suggests another way
for trimming plain silk parasol or
of freshening up an old one.
Plain linen parasols, and even silk
ones. are beautifed by appliqued
work. Cretonne roses. or bright fu-
turtst designs in linen, are blanket
stitched on with colored cottons.
Cross-stitched, solid and eyelet en-
broidery, cutwork and braiding all
help in the beautifying scheme. Beads
can be applied very easily to plain silk
or even linen; in the latter case use
the wooden beads. Ribbons can be
laid on in stripes and bands of con-
trasting material can be stitched on
for the same purpose.
If you want to be very up-to-date
make a charming little puffed bag of
the trimming materials and hang II
to the parasol handle by ring or
ribbon loop.

WILL AIM AWFUL
BLOW AT SALOON
Plans Completed For Big Ma
ional Anti-Saloon League
Convention June 26-29
(By Allen SutherIand)

Those who had the privilege Of at
tending the Sixteenth National Con-
vention of the Anti-Saloon League
held last July in Atlantic City, are not
likely to forget the large gatherings,
the splendid enthusiasm and the noble
addresses. Great audiences were
swayed by the matchless eloquence of
such men as P. A. Baker, John G..
Wo6lley, f. H. Cherrington, Richard
P. Hobson. Louis Albert Banks. f. ].
Moore, J. j. Curran, Governor Patter-
son. Homer W. Tope, Dan Morgan
Smith. and other men who are giving
their best TO keep active the sentiment
that is sweeping the liquor traffic from
our land.
While the Atlantic City convention
established several precedents il is
confidently expected that the seven
teenth National Convention of the
League to be held in INDIANAPOLIS
Indiana, will surpass II in many ways
An unusually effective program has
been prepared. An important Work
ers' Conference will be held June 21st-
25th, Immediately preceding the meet
ing of the Convention, at which time
unusually practical and interesting
subjects relative TO the work will be
presented and considered. The Con-
vention will meet on Monday, June
26th to Thursday, June 29th. In con-
nection with the Convention there will
be a helpful Round Table Conference
held every morning, at which every
phase of the work will be thoughtfully
discussed. Altogether, the Indianapo-
lis Convention will doubtless establish
high-vater mark in the work of the
Anti-Saloon League. This will be
largely due to the fact that through
the determined efforts of the League
and kindred associations, the entire
country is becoming more and more
awake to the tremendous battle that
is being waged against the LIQUOR traf-
f1c. The day is rapidly approaching
when national Prohibition will be writ
ten in our federal constitution.
Our churches are aroused as they
have never been in the past. and are
throwing the weight of their vast in
fuence on the side OF God, and right
eousness and temperance, and are try
ing to make that influence effective.
as the following instances will show:
At a recent General Conference of
the Methodist Episcopal Church. held
in Saratoga, this action was taken:
The Anti-Saloon League, ORGANIZED
and equipped by the men and the
money Of the Christian churches of
the Nation, has come to represent. in

Helen was finally left standing alone

hands together nervously Would it

was no need of forcing an issue that
might after all come to nothing.
