material also has fallen into our hands.
Thanks to the complete and extremely
efficacious artillery preparations and
thanks also to our infantry, our losses
have been very small.

has been no infantry action. very

WHAT THE VETERANS GAVE.
They Gave Up Their All, And Our
People should Never
Forget 1t.

Regret is often expressed that the
exercises of the national Memorial
Day attract so little attendance and
attention. A pessimist remarks that
a parade of callow soldier boys OF
1916 in their spick and spandy uni
forms would attract a much larger
crowd. Yet these youths are mere
raw recruits who have had no bap-
tism of fire. But they represent the
forward look. The men who wore
the Blue or the Grey represent a
past age and the backward vision.
History and those who stand for it
are set aside in this hurrying age.
Yet it is not always possible to
guage popular interest merely by at
tendance at public exercises. Poor
church attendance does not mean
that the people are ready to give up
religious worship. The Memorial Day
observances are about the same thin e
year after year, and our restless peo-
pie demand novelties.
Public appreciation is always tar

WILL WOMEN VOTE?
Large Vote Cast by Them Establish
es Fact That They Take a
Lively Interest.

Women have the right to vote in
many different parts of the civilized
world. They not only have it, but
they use it.
In the presidential election of
1912 there were 24,773,5S3 men
over 81 years of age in the non-suff-
rage states of the Union. Of these
13,521,S99 voted, or 54.5 per cent.
In the six suffrage states, Wyoming,
Colorado, Idaho, Utah, Washington
and California-the only states
where women could vote for presi-
dent in 19I2-there were 1888, 445
men and women over p years of
age. OF these 1,514,643 voted, or
46.6 per cent. Between the proper
ton of men voting in the male suff-
rage states and the proportion of all
adults voting in the equal suffrage
states there was a difference of less
than per cent There is no escape
from this conclusion. The figures are
taken from wholly impartial sources

dy. But the luster of soldierly deeds
of 81 is bound 10 increase. Great So
cieties will grow up of men and wo-
men glad to claim descent from SOL
der blood. Records will be searched
to prove this distinction.
When the old soldiers are asked to
address school children, the young
sters always seem thrilled by their
simply told tales of heroism. The
public gratitude to these men is
warmer than they or their friends
realize. When one of them dies, the
fact of his soldierly service is the one
thing the newspapers emphasize the
most.
1t is too bad that full recognition
is not given these men before tEey
pass on. The younger generation too
little realizes what they gave up for
their cause. Half of those who return
ed were so affected by disease and
overstrain that they could never
achieve any business success. They
gave up their all, and our people
should never forget it.

Graduation Dresses at S1.4s.

The sweet girl graduate has freed
herself from the business OF the
fluffy graduation frock!
This is to be MILDLY blouse"
year in schools all over the country.
Little Miss Nobody will have no
heartache because she cannot wear
point lace like Miss Somebody, for
both Miss Nobody and Miss Somebody
will wear democratic self-made mid
dies" when they step forth to receive
diplomas.
The movement for MILDLY grad
uation dresses, which is sweeping
the country, was born in Chicago, &C
cording to the girls of the Burr
school, where dress-making is a part
of the course.
All of the 35 girls who will gradu-
ate from the Burr school this June
made their own ''middies."
Not one of the dresses cost more
than S1.4S!
Here's an example OF middle"
blouse economy: OtilIa Lakanska OF
the Burr school, made her graduation
dres. of six and a half yards Of mer~
cerized poplin at 22 cents yard and
alf a dozen buttons at 8 cents each.
Thread was furnished by the school.
Ctiilia and her friends made their
dresses in five sewing lessons.

Sad Case of Drowning.

Ray Johnson, the fourteen year old
son of Mrs. Ida Johnson, was drown

mates, the pupils of the high school
freshman class, and four OF the
school teachers, Misses Josselyn'
Cooper, Camp and Chambers, for
picnic during the afternoon and eve

A number of the boys had gone In

HAS RAKE DISEASE.
Hodgkin's Affection of Lymphatic
Glands Attacks Young Woman
at Knoxville.

Knoxville, Ia, May 29.-Miss Anna
McKern, who for the last four years
had charge of the dining room of the
state inebriate hospital here, is now
at Mount Sinai hospital, Milwaukee,
suffering from the rarest known hui
man ailment-Hodgkin's disease Of
Emphatic glands.
Miss McKern left here in March to
take treatment at the Mayo hospital
at Rochester, Mimi. Surgeons there
refused to operate upon her, telling
her there was not one chance in a
million that she would live a year.
They told her only one surgeon in the
United States ever attempts to treat
such cases and he is the one at the
Mount Sinai hospital. At that insti-
tuition there are only five cases of the
disease under observation.
1t is said that there has been only
one other case of Hodgkin's disease
in Iowa, that of Samuel Trent, who
died of it at Knoxville in 1913.

New York World Almanac.

New York World Almanac.
Striking proof that women do vote
is also to DO found in the figures of
the state elections. (
Kansas, Oregon and Arizona gave
women the ballot in November 1912,
and the women mad their first chance
to vote at the general election II Mo-
vember, 1914. In Arizona the total
cast rose from 23,722 in 1912 to 51,-
.007 in 1914; in Oregon, from 49,
040 to 210,566. and in Kansas, from
365, 444 to 530,206. The increase is
the more remarkable inasmuch as
1912 was the presidential year.
California elects her Governor
once in four years. In 1911 she en-
franchised her women. The total
vote cast at the gubernatorial cleo
ton in 1906 was $4,000; in 1910;
3S5,715, and in 1914, 926,6S9. These
figures speak for themselves.
The chief Justice of Idaho and all
the Justices of the state supreme
court have signed a published state
ment that ''the large vote cast by the
women esta blishes the fact that they
take a, lively interest.

Yawns and Dislocates Jaws.

anaesthetic to get them in action
