Mrs. Hand has exploited her idea of
interior decoration, with a special view
to showing what can be done with old
furniture in making attractive effects.
The arrangements follow the Bohe-
milan style.
One of the rooms is an art studio
and the other a breakfast room. The
breakfast room is worked out in what
is called the triad color scheme,
orange, green and violet. The room is
furnished with chairs, a serving table
and a breakfast table, which are fin
ished in the palest graygreen shade.
The table runners, napkins and doilies
are of violet linen decorated with the
fashionable block print in the triad
colors, on a black background. The
china shows up an idea entirely new
in Topeka. Miss Witwer has brought
out a set of wedgewood china which
she has decorated in design of con-
on each side a conventionalized bird
of Paradise. The chairs have a similar
decoration on the backs
The studio is to be finished in tan
graft paper with oak woodwork. 1t
will be a modern studio and will dis
play the work of Mrs. Hand, Mrs. L.
D. Whittemore, and Mr.. Merrill Gage,
all of the Washburn art department.

 There's much to the same effect that could be related, but your correspondent is anxious to retain the good will of h.s Alabama friends.

Chicago, June L-(Special)-At the present time Alabama delegates are busi- ly engaged in the nomination of a re- publican candidate for President of the United States. Each is apparently anx- ious to find the band wagon and jump on.
 Before the beginning of the sessions, however, they had as much fun under the great lights as any other individuals who came from the sunny south in Palm Beach clothes to encounter the icy breath of Lake Michigan. On account of the 'cold days in June,' the entire delega tion has been forced out of B. V. D. S into woolen underwear.
 Along with the Alabama republicans Tom Long came to Chicago. Tom says he came to see that Pope, his G. O. P brother, did not lose himself in the crowds. The statement may not be true, but Tom declared, when the correspond ent of The Age-Herald saw Pope turn over to his democratic brother a formid- able roll of bills, that circumstantial evil dence tended to prove his contention cor rect.
 Tom fraternzes with Pope and other republicans as if he was one of the clan, and it Is an admitted fact that on q

OLD MANUSCRIPT
 RECENTLY FOUND AvOndale Man Has Novel Written By Father Nearly
 50 Years Ago

Foster B. Terrell, 3919 Avenue c, Avon dale. has recently come into possession of a unique heirloom in the form of a manuscript written by his father, the late Foster B. Terrell, who was one of the first editors of The Iron Age, in the early days of Birmingham.
 It is a manuscript of a novel entitled. "The Golden Deity, and has never been published. It is thought that it was writ ten about 45 years ago, though the son never knew anything about it until re- gently and his father has been dead for many years. The manuscript has been stored away in bank vault for great many years and MT. Terrell's sister, who first came across it, turned it over to her brother.
 R. F. Lackey has examined the manu- script and thinks it has great merit. From nasty calculation I would say it contains about 3S0,000 worlds said MT. Lackey. There are 36 chapters and the manuscript is beautifully written and per- fectly preserved. Old citizens with whom have talked all speak of the author as man of fine attainments and schol- arly instincts and his novel shows evil dences of the greatest care in prepara- tion. I have read only parts of it but have been very much impressed. I don't know whether it has any monetary value or not but it is certainly precious heir lOOm,'

 Tt is not a call for the favorite son of any state, but for the favorite son of the nation, MT. Robins continued, and again the flags were unfurled and the crowd raised their voices to the highest pitch.
 A plea for America to take her place at the front with Roosevelt as leader in restoring the world to it's normal condi- tion after the war closed, MT. Robins remarked, amid prolonged applause The list of temporary organization des- ignations then were read and on motion of James R.

Ell route to Chicago the Pullman porter shined one of his large tan shoes ana his yellow suitcase. When, on the follow ing morning Chester made vigorous con,- plaint, the porter replied:

suppression of the demonstration was the waving of a banner portrait of Roose- welt from the rostrum. The portrait was cheered, but scores of delegates shouted to the temporary chairman:
 "Go on with your speech!"
 MT. Robins picked up a big stick shaped gourd that had figured in creat ing enthusiasm and the crowd took the hint, shouting they would quit. The chairman then resumed his speech. The sustained demonstration was for one hour and 33 minutes.
 As MT. Robins proceeded the delegates listened attentively His reference to na- tional defense and Americanism were ap- plauded.
 The crowd threatened another long demonstration when he said, those of easy and accommodating political vir- tue'' would not be granted a compromise merely and only for political expediency.
 Another prolonged outburst occurred when Mr. Robins said the progressives would go forward alone if necessary, although success would be easier under united banner"
 WAITING FOR LEADER
 "The American people are waiting for a leader to be named here in Chicago Robins declared later and this signaled shouts from the delegates: Well name him!''
