my California residence, the North
Dakota legislators, bless 'em, have
granted me practically the same priv
ileges in my home state.
Moreover, l wouldn't be surprised
If the Nebraska legislature passed the.
same kind of a suffrage bill very soon.
The presidential suffrage bill there had
lain dormant for some time, but the
day after diplomatic relations were
severed with Germany. so many mas
sages were received from the women
of the state that the house revived the
bill and passed it on to a final reading.
Nebraska Women Interested.
THE possibility of war has stirred
up an intense interest among the
women of Nebraska. 1 stopped off at
Omaha February to attend the Con-
gressional Union conference there. and
the women were all wrought up over
the possibility of war being declared
by a government in which they had no
voice Mind, there was no talk Of
Sinking or anything like that
The women there were just as
anxious to help their country as the
men, but they resented the fact that
the government should be willing to ac-
cept their services without first official
ly recognizing the justice of the wom-
ems demands for political independence
Il found the same attitude in Iowa,
and I imagine that the President and
the administration leaders will stir up
4 veritable hornets nest in the western
and middle western states II they pass
the bill enfranchising the people of
Porto Rico and neglect the federal suf-
frage amendment. The women are will
ing to serve. but they are not willing
to have their claims for full citizenship
brushed aside in a time of international
crisis"

WOMEN OF WEST LOYAL
IN CRISIS, SHE SAYS
Miss Beulah Amidon of Fargo, N. D.,
Says They Believe It Is Oppor-
tune Time for Suffrage.

Some first-hand information on what
the women of the west think about the
war situation was brought here today by
Miss Beulah Amidon of Fargo. N. D.
Summed up. this information is that
Uncle Sam need entertain no fears con-
corning either the loyalty or patriotism
of his prairie nieces in event of the
present international crisis developing a
more serious phase. But pending de-
velopments these same western women
want Uncle Sam to realize that the sew
erance of diplomatic relations with Ger
many has done more to stimulate inter-
est in woman suffrage in the prairie
states than any event of recent years.
Miss Amidon smiled-she has a keen
sense of humor. this slender, pretty
girl with wavy brown hair and big gray
eyeS-as she told of the joke that the
legislature of North Dakota played on
her last month when it passed the bill
suffrage to the women of her native
state, which was too good to keep

OFFICERS IN ARMY
ORGANIZING SOCIETY

NEW YORK, Dec. 1O.-Families Of
all the officers enrolled in the United
States Reserve Corps have been in
vited to see to it that as many OF
them as possible be made members
of the Society of American officers
before they are sent to serve with
the American army in France. These
officers include the men who were
trained in and received their commits
sions from such corps as those at
Plattsburg, N. Y. and at other points.
In a statement issued today by the
Society Of American officers, the
families Of all the officers Of the Re-
serve Corps are invited to send in ap-
plications in behalf of their officers,
giving their full names. addresses and
the branch Of the service in which
they are commissioned. The announ-
cement is made that amy officer who
has been commissioned by a state or
the federal government is eligible for
membership which he retains for life
unless dishonorably discharged OF
convicted Of felony.

founded upon lines closely following
that of the celebrated Society of the
Cincinnati of Washington's day, un-
dertakes to keep likeness Of every
member and a subsequent running
record both of his origin, his expert
ence and his military career for the
balance Of his life.
THE society Is a purely patriotic
one, its entrance fee Is but three dol
lars and its dues are only one dollar

expense Is eighty cents for the little
