SO nicely" she purred to him one eve

the room just then, she thought it
best not to tell her cousin that all her

Betty to Friday night services the

FILIPINO OWNERS ARE
AGAINST INDEPENDENCE
Those Who Have Land in the
Philippines Are Not Ready
TO Freedom of Islands.

WASHINGTON, April 25-Fllipl-
no property owners, proprietors Of
agricultural holdings aggregating
twenty million dollars, have petition
ed Representative Clarence b. Miller,
OF Minnesota. asking that the Jones
bill, granting independence to the
Islands, be defeated. Representative
Miller. who made a tour OF the
islands two years ago, as a member
OF the House committee in insular
affairs, in speaking OF the petition to-
day. said:
"The petition is significant in many
vital ways In the first place II Is an
expression of the earnest wishes Of a
large group OF responsible Filipinos.
1t represents the real views Of large
portion of the Filipino people.
have long been convinced that the
great mass of the Filipino people
have been entirely ignorant OF the
Independence agitation. Responsible
property owners heretofore have not
seen Mt to oppose the immediate in
dependence agitation carried on by a
portion of the people because thew
did not think independence might
come al once and were willing to let
the political leaders make capital out
OF this propaganda. Immediately,
however. upon the passage OF the
Clarke amendment in the Senate,
proposing to withdraw the sovereign
lty OF the United States from the
Islands in from two to four years.
the responsible people in the islands
found themselves confronted with
the question Of immediate independ-
ence and their response is immedi-
ate.
have checked over the ninety
two names signed to the petition by
people acquainted with that locality
and ! am Informed these are the
leading men OF the two islands OF
Negroes and Panay, rs far as the ag-
rlcultural intercstes are concerned.
am informed that these men repre-
sent about twenty million dollars
worth of property, they and their
families. In addition. the sentiment
which they here express no doubt
represents the sentiment OF practical
~ all OF the property-owning Filipi-
nos throughout the Philippine
islands. 1t Is to be noted that these
men are farmers in the islands of
Negros and Panay. where is pro-
duced the great bulk of the sugar
grown in the islands and where is to
be found the most prosperous agri-
cultural area in all the islands.
consider this petition of the very
highest importance, as presenting
Filipino wishes that ought to be re-
spected by the American people,"
The petition is as follows:

and property holders of the islands

that the passage of the Jones bill
in the form that it was passed by the
Senate of the United States would
be fatal to social progress, TO the
development of the commerce, indus
try and agriculture and to the polit-
ical well-being OF all the inhabitants
of the Philippine islands.
Therefore, we earnestly beg the
Congress and the United States gov
eminent and its citizens that they
suspend all action on the Jones bill,
and that the question of the political
Independence of the Philippine
islands be definitely suspended for
period of twenty years. and that
no action as to the independence of
the Philippine islands be taken with
out the vote of the Filipino people.

How to Train the Voice

Who can think of American wo- men without depioring the misman- agement of their throats and lungs. as regards their vocal cords? asks a writer in an Outside magazine. Of these mistakes the chiet one is that of the pitch the majority of women take foI conversation. For instance instead of striving for d pure, sweet speaking tone, with the throat muscles relaxed and the jaws held in an easy position as Tor singing most women contract their vocal cords and hold their jaws stiff, with the result that their tones are nasal or throaty and. al most without exception shrill.
 To remedy these vocal defects, that are accentuated undoubtedly by climatic conditions. woman must make a determined effort to bring
