SUFFRAGISTS READY

Mrs. Pattie Ruffner Jacobs. of Birming-
ham, Ala, the youngest woman on the
board of the National American Woman
Suffrage Association, and the only Off
GER who comes from the far South, ar
rived in Washington yesterday to at
tend the meeting of the executive coun-
Gil of the National American Woman
Suffrage Association, which convened yes
terday morning.
When interviewed on the question of
war service by suffragists. which is one
of the most important subjects to be dis
cussed by the council, she said:
"The women of the South were heroic
figures In the civil war, and they are
ready to do their share today IL called
upon. Women always suffer most from
war, and the whole psychology of women
Is opposed to war. We therefore hope
that no occasion will arise which will
require our organization to devote its
machinery to war service.
However, II the worst should come, i
am heartily in favor of the women doing
their war work as suffragists, thus keep
ing their organization intact, rather than
dissipating their energies through other
less efficient organizations. The National
American Suffrage Association with its
100000 members, and with headquarters
In every large city in America, is the
most capable woman's machine that
could possibly be had"

HIGH COST OF Seeing
NOW HITS washington
Imported Lenses and Optical Novelties
Soar Upward with Food.

What we eat costs lot of money these
days, and to make matters worse, In
order that some of us may see what we
are eating, we have 10 pay more.
Not that 1t takes pair of strong mag
nifying glasses to see what We get for
our money, but because "blinkers," to be
In style with everything else, had to
advance In price. The regular old time
eye glasses have not advanced great
deal. but the modernists who demand
novelties, such as elaborate tortoise shell
rims, with lenses large enough to use
for finger bowls, must hand out more
cash to the optician.
Certain kinds of lenses, which have to
be imported. and ground by experts, have
kept pace with other articles, the prices
OF which are steadily soaring. It costs
more to hire a man to grind lenses than
1t did two years ago; 1t costs a little
more to buy the raw materials, also.
Hence the high cost of seeing the high
cost of living.

Modern Languages in Los Angeles

Los Angeles has allowed itself to become "aI stirred up the subject of teaching the German language in the schools. The usual people whose and pictures have become familiar to the read ITS of the Los Angeles papers by their appearance whenever any public question comes to the fore, be it protest against the price potatoes or the dis cussion of some psychological problem, trotted out to decide whether German should be taught lt/
 They have different views, though all agree that the teaching of it is inopportune Some favor for getting that there is such a thing as the German language others would only intern the language for the period of the war. .--1- 4
 very few offer the sensible suggestion thatythe study of it should be confined to the higher nstitu- tons of learning, and that by the way is where it belongs in either peace or war.
 The German or the French or Spanish that one acquires in the lower grades within period fixed by a curriculum does him little good. It may be bene- fcial to the exceptional student with a definite pur- pose and unusual aptness for learning languages but as to the great majority of pupils they fail to lay even foundation for useful pursuit of the language In this country there comparatively few peo- Ile who learn any other language than their own or ever have use for any other language. Even well educated man may be educated in only one modern language. that which he learned from his mother to speak. In Europe especially on the continent one usually speaks two or more languages because the average has need of them
 People living along the border in this country find it advisable to learn that Spanish patois known as Mexican and in certain communities where German or one of the Scandinavian languages is predominant it is advisable for to acquire working knowledge of those tongues. But generally there is no reason why American children a class should be forced to learn any language which they are likely never to use.

Christmas

The third Christmas of the world war On each Christmas the war has been bigger and bigger and each, there has been less peace earth, good will to men, On each Christmas peace seemed farther and farther in the distance. It not of be always Like all earthly things the must end, manity and after all. the war will seem a little thing in comparison with Christmas and that for which Christmas stands the eternal peace which shall cced all earthly turmoil great afflictions and little perpleNites. They will ali seem little in the distance.
 Christmas cannot be dmmed by war be over whemed by it. Those who think so might as well admit that God himself hds been overwhelmed by humanity and has lost his control of it.
 There will be what we think are bright Christi and bloody Christmases but we will see them so only by defective vision We look through brightness and through blood but Christmas is as un- changeable as the date of it's observance. Man has fixed the day and man may order the manner of the observance but the spirit of the day is not his to tamper with He cannot change it.
 Even amidst the clash of war Christmas bells will be heard perhaps not distinctly; the Star of Bethe- hem shone last night perhaps dimly. The hard hearts of men will be somewhat softened and we doubt not that the men in the trenches well those in Nigh military councils will feel the softenng influence of the season. Out of it peace may come peace not soon to be broken again.

To Be Done Easily and DecsntIy L.

The graceful submission Of Governor Campbell to the opinion of the supreme and the courteous attitude toward him of Governor Hunt are both. ex- pressed in the letters that passed between them on Sunday night and yesterday leading up to the transfer of the office today These letters indicate smooth and with as slight disturbance as possible of the busi- ness of the state and with little stirring up as pos- sible of the animosites of it's citizens
 The demand of the attorney general before the ink of the signatures of the supreme justices was fairly dried for the immediate surrender of the gov ornors office. with the attorney generals accompany- ing and apparently oxeusatory statement that the democratic party of the state was "on his back" meaning thereby that the democratic party was on the outside, bowling and hungry, indcced apprehension as to the future of Arizona of era of spoiation partisan hatred and revenge.
