site side of the street from the
stores, which are showing large
boxes of candy, and an abundance of
sweetmeats, which contribute to the
beauty of the windows. The baker
les are also tempting places for the
person who is easily persuaded to
purchase cakes and other dainties.
Halloween suggestions are to be
found in many of the windows.
The interiors of the Cambridge
stores-drygoods, mems furnishings,
shoe, millinery, jewelry, hardware,
linen, grocery, bakery and confec-
tionery stores are noted for their
neatness and attractive appearance.
1t is conceded by business men, we'll
acquainted with the stores on the
Eastern Shore, that Cambridge is far
head of the neighboring towns in
his respect. Not alone do the mer-
hants strive to have beautiful show
windows that will call for favorable
comments from the town people and
trangers, but they carry large
tocks, the many shelves of the stores
|eing filled with goods, bought from
he most reliable wholesale houses
n this part of the country.
When Cambridge has it's autumn
parade, which is generally in Novem-
ber, on the Sunday before Thanks
giving, it is then that one has a
hance to appreciate what the Cam
bridge merchants do to help the

A shopping trip through the Cam
bridge stores and a stroll through
the woods at this season of the year
impresses one with the excellent
taste used by the local merchants in
selecting colors which harmonize
with autumn. The drygoods, milli-
merry, mems furnishings and shoe
stores have certainly put forth ev-
cry effort to please the most fastidi-
Gus dresser.
The stocks carried by all these
stores is large; sufficient to dress the
entire town without it being neces-
sary for Cambridge people to go to
the city to procure the styles and
materials which are in vogue. The
show windows are trimmed with
Fashions latest DEGREES; rich coats
of velvet and fur, suits of beautiful
shades and exceptional quality;
waists of lace and silk. The win
dows of the bonnet shops are pleas
ing to the eye, for here one sees mod
els, of velvet, beavet and felt, in
large, small and medium sizes, trim
med with feathers, ribbons, gold lace,
and other fanciful objects which are
tesneci LIZ kaco,aai 81 Sn1e1l.7
Large baskets of flowers also adorn
the windows.
The shoe stores are attracting an
unusual amount of attention this
year. The rapid advance in leather
has made the price of shoes greater
than last fall, but the manufacturers
have endeavored to give the public
the very best quality for the money
expended, and the styles of the 1916
1917 shoes are much more fascinat-
ing than those of previous years. The
high boot reigns supreme, and it may
be of almost any color; black, tan,
gray, blue, but nearly every one is of
two tones, which harmonic so clev-
erly that one finds the money spent
for shoes a good investment.
The stores which are furnishing
mems apparel, and also the tailor
establishments of the town, seem an
Xious to dress the men of Cambridge
in clothes which can be equaled by
only the well-dresSed men of the
large cities, and surpassed by none.
The display windows of these stores
are full of handsome overcoats, suits,
hats and other necessary articles of
apparel.
Ideas for the housewife, who is
just completing her fall house
cleaning and is contemplating a
change of druggets, pictures and fur
niture, are contained in the windows
of the furniture dealers. For every
room in the house there is piece of
furniture to supplant the summer
draperies and interior decorations
which were so attractive during the
warm months.

Not Humbug But
Common Sense

The Woman's Journal describes it
as "a piece of humbug" that anti
suffragists should oppose the Federal
suffrage amendment on the ground
that it deprives the people of a
chance to vote on it, while, when the
question is before legislatures, they
oppose favorable action which would
send it to the people.
The Woman's Journal, as is it's
habit, is merely playing with words.
There is no real resemblance between
the two things. There is not the
slightest inconsistency in the anti
suffrage attitude toward them.
The farmers of our State Consti-
tutions wisely guarded against pre-
cipitate and capricious changes. In
Massachusetts, for example, a pro-
posed amendment to the Constitu-
tion must be first approved by ma
jority of the Senators and two-thirds
of the members of the House of Rep
next be approved by majority of
the Senators and two-thirds of the
members of the House of Represen-
tatives in the succeeding Legislature,
and, finally, must be ratified by a
majority of the qualified voters of
the State, before it becomes a part
of the Constitution.
Here are three stages through
which a proposed amendment must
pass. The provisions are intended to
secure discussion and deliberate ac-
ton. The required approval of two
Legislatures is no mere form. IT Is,
not intended that legislators shall
give good-humored approval to any
proposition which may come before
them, waiying their own responsible
ity. 1t is for them to vote on any
proposition according to their best
judgment of what is right and wise.
Surely, the opponents of any propos-
ed amendment are justified in oppos-
ing it at all three of the stages es-
tablished by the Constitution.
There are two radical differences
between this process and that pro-
posed by the Anthony amendment.
The suffragists are pushing that
amendment openly on the ground
that it gives them a chance altogeth-
er to avoid any submission of the
question to the voters. They are
pushing it also, because, in the. de-
termination of the final result, it
gives to such States as Nevada and
Wyoming, with populations of only
81,875 and 145,965 respectively,
equal weight with New York, with
more than 100000, and Pennsyl-
vania, with more than 100000.
1t is the suffragists, not the anti
suffragists. who are inconsistent.
They profess to stand for a larger
Democracy; yet they are concentrat-
ing all their strength upon a pro-
posal which would allow the minori-
| ty to override the majority, and
would practically disfranchise the
voters upon a revolutionary and ma
tion-wide change in the electorate

The Journalist Greed

(By Walter Williams, of the School
of journalism, University of Mis-
souri.)
1 believe in the profession of jour-
nalism.
1 believe that the public journal is
public trust; that all connected
with it are, TO the full measure of
their responsibility, trustees for the
public;S that acceptance of lesser SER
vice than the public service is be-
trayal of this trust.
l believe that clear thinking and
clear statement, accuracy and fair
ness are fundamental to good jour-
nalism.
l believe that a journalist should
write only what he holds in his heart
to be true.
l believe that suppression of the
news, for any consideration other
than the welfare of society, is indie
fensible.
/ believe that no one should write
as journalist what he would not
say as a gentleman; that bribery by
ones own pocketbook is as much to
be avoided as bribery by the pocket
book of fsanother; that Individual re-
sponsibiHty may not be escaped by
pleading another's instructions or
another's dividends.
believe that advertising, news
and editorial columns should alike
serve the best interests of the read
ers; thak Single standard of help

vail for all; that the supreme test of
