Every woman's organization in
Pensacola should be represented in
the preparedness parade. All over the
country the women have taken lead
ing part in these parades, in New
York, New Orleans, Montgomery, and
other cities, the women entering with
the greatest enthusiasm into the
ranks of those who have marched to
indicate their love of country and
their loyalty to the flag.
The two largest women's organiza-
tions in Pensacola are the Pensacola
Equal Suffrage League, Of which Miss
Marguerite Ingraham is president,
and the Woodmen's Circle, of which
Mrs. Cora B. Everhart is grand guar

DINNER PARTY FOR
MISS LUSK AND Mr.. KINGSBERY.

Each day for several weeks some
informal courtesy or beautiful func-
ton has frightened the social calen-
dar and complimented Miss Edith
Lusk in some new and delightful way,
the dinner party with which Mr.. and
Mrs. F. E. Welles entertained last
evening in honor of Miss Lusk and
Mr.. A. C. Kingsbery closing the pre-
nuptial affairs which have been given
in their honor.
The Welles home on East Gadsden
street is charming in the arrange
ment of its rooms, and the beauty
of its appointments, and the dining
room was especially lovely in its dec
orations. The table, with its service
of silver and cut glass, was conferred
with floral piece of Iydrangeas, rep
resenting a pink float, flower-laden,
on which butterflies, driven by Cupids,
suggested the June-time dedicated to
brides. Broad pink satin ribbons
formed the body of the float, which
was massed with great clusters of the
blue hydrangeas, over the center of
which lowered huge butterfly. The
gauzy-winged butterflies also poised
at either end of the mass of blossoms,
driven by Cupids, with slender pink
garlands.
The table was lighted from be-
meath, throwing out the pink tones
most artistically. Pink and blue Gro
cheted baskets held sailed almonds
and hand-painted place cards, sug-
gestive of the approaching wedding
each had some sentiment or question
for discussion, which gave a bright
touch of originality to the evening
A seven-course dinner was served
those enjoying the hospitality of Mr.
and Mrs. Welles being Miss Lusk
Mr.. Kingsbery, Miss Marie Lewis Of
Los Angeles, Mr.. and Mrs. Harry
Lurton, Miss Lucille Boyer, Miss
Lille Williams, Mr.. and Mrs. J. C
Hester, Mr.. Walter Johnson, Mr.

SUFFRAGE CIVIC
CLEANUP.

An Manhansett, Long Island, suf-

They started Suffrage Civic Clean
Up Week." which cost the town moth
ing and earned the Suffrage Associa-
ton the thanks of the board of trade.
The women borrowed thirty wagons
Of all sorts, delivery carts, drays and
what not. They also enlisted young
people as volunteer workers and
cleaned up the village. The results
have gained great respect for what
suffrage stands for as a community
factor.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-Cabinet

sidered Americas policy regarding
the sinking Of the liner Persia. At
the first cabinet meeting IN a month.
the president and Secretary Lansing
presented the scant evidence gathered
regarding the catastrophe. The SEN
ate and house foreign committees,
meeting for the first time since recon-
vening of congress, took up the Persia
incident informally and mapped out
plan of cooperation with the white
house and state department.
All officials admitted this govern
ment's hands are tied until further
evidence is produced. This is hoped
for from Austria, following Ambassa-
dor Penfield's request to the Vienna
office Officials declared 1t unthink-
able Austria would deny responsible
ity or withhold evidence If one Of her
submarines reports torpedoing the

with such an admission, would volun-
teer disavowal and repudiate the
commanders action, unless evidence
could be offered to show the Persia

dered herself subject to unwarned at
tacks. The latter suggestion might
bring to head the whole question OF
