THE BURDEN OF MARDI GRAS
QUEENSHIP
The committee in charge OF the an
nual Mardi Gras ball is already at
work subconsciously on the next
event. The women carry the burden
through the year, for it is not the sort
CT thing which can be tossed off with
out any preliminary thought While
the ball was in full swing, a group Of
them. wi1ly-nilly, found themselves
discussing the possibilities for the
queen Of next years pageant.
IL Is not an easy matter to prevail
upon a desirable person to take up
the scepter for the night. or course.
the less desirable the person. the
more eager she always is for such
honor. But somehow the ones who
square up to the exactions in pulchri-
tude and position always have to be
coaxed along. Fortunately, the smart
set carries excess baggage in the mat
ter of beauty, so there is wide range
and variety of choice still to be had
in spite of the number who have al
ready been called to the throne. But
1t Is very expensive business, this
Queenship affair, and only those who
never pull at both ends to make APP
pearances meet could consider II for
a moment-San Francisco News-Let.

Honolulu is divided into social dis
tricts. all OF the women OF the same

whenever possible, for the stranger TO
mingle on equal terms with the resi-
dents. The outdoor life favors such
mingling--the life around the hotels.
the sea beaches, the homes with their
wideopen porches or ''lanais,' as the
islanders term them: the town clubs
and country clubs. the army posts, the
varied forms OF public amusement. All
these tend TO bring the stranger into
the midst Of the social life OF the CAPT
ta!.
There Is the smart set" there Is
the conservative set; there is the
royalty get; there are many social
circles in Honolulu. Among the most
active entertainers are the Princess
Kawananakoa, a beautiful part-Ha-
waiian woman of culture and brilliant
accomplishments, and Prince and Prin-
cess Kalanianaole prince Cupid, for
short, they say), whose delightful old
villa at WAIKIKI is the scene Of many
and wonderful parties. Prince Ka.
lanianaole is Hawaii's delegate to Con.
gress.
Golf and polo are played throughout
the islands. Tennis courts abound
everywhere, even at the remote villas
OF the sugar Dlanters far away from
town. The motor car Is everywhere,
even going now to the very edge Of
the crater Of Kilauea, on the island Of
Hawaii. Baseball is played the year
round. At the famous Honolulu Coun-
try Club In Nuuanu valley, just outside
Of Honolulu, is a splendid lS-hole golf
course.
Isolated as Honolulu may be geo
graphically, its society otherwise is in
close touch with the outside world,
and is in no sense insular. II is ready
to do its part, with credit to the dis
tinguished strangers whom il may re-
ceige, and its representatives are at
home in any lard wheresoever bust
ness or pleasure may take them

the tremendous power of America but
the fact that the American people are
whole-heartedly in favor of prosecu-
ting the war with vigor and willing to
finance our government to the limit.
Every purchase of a Liberty Loan
Bond not only supplies the sinews of
war but 1t shoots a fact into the Ger
man mind-the fact that the Ameri-
can people are behind the American
Army and behind the American Pres
ident, and that there is no end to this
war except the achievement of the
ends that America, is fighting for. Ev-
cry purchaser of a Liberty Loan Bond
does something to end the war, does
something to shorten the war.
When you shorten the war you
shorten the terms of our soldiers who
serve In France: you save many from
death and suffering and privation.
You save others from the dangerous
voyage across summarized seas and
the dangers of service in Europe. The
success of the Liberty Loan will be a
shortening of the war and a saving of
American lives. We have given our
sons to battle, we must lend our dol
lars to back them up, to make them
powerful and effective, and as safe
and as secure as may be.
Our unconquerable determination
to fight to the end, to fight to the
last man and the last dollar must be
| manifested between October / and
October q. 1917, and bring to the Ger

struggle in behalf of the German Inn

right, and Justice and the American
people.

j. S. OWNERSHIP
OF D. c. PHONES
PUSHED BY GORE

Senator Gore OF Oklahoma intends
to give special attention this winter
to the bill which he has introduced
. in the Senate providing for Govern
ment ownership of the telephone sys-
TEN OF the District OF Columbia. He
presented the bill in the last Con-
Eress. but it was not acted upon.
As Senator Gore views it. the pub
lie ownership OF the telephone sys-
tenn here would not only be to the
advantage Of the Government and the
people OF the DIstIic4- but it would
be e valuable object lesson. TO the
country. 1t would be the forerunncr'
he thinks. OF Government ownership
OF the wires throughout the country.
In case the Chesapeake and Poto-
mac Telephone Company succeeds in
forcing its rates higher. which it IL
trying to do. that fact will be used
by senator Gore TO convince the Sen
ate that it is time for the Govern
ment TO own its own system.

Government officials are seriously
considering abrogating many con-
tracts which are keeping commodity

OF thought on this matter. One group
OF lawyers Is OF the opinion that II
would be wholly unconstitutional for
the Government to abrogate contracts
made before prices were fixed. An
other holds that these contracts can
lawfully be abrogated under the gen
eral war powers OF the sovereign gov
erhment.
This school holds that any contract
may be ADVOCATED and the Govern
Hent can seize goods as a military
measure. The law is that the Gov
eminent may seize goods in the vicin-
ity OF military operations. II Is
claimed that as this is an Industrial

.SUFFRAGISTSW WILL
FINANCE WOMEN'S
WAR HOSPITAL UNIT

The Or. Caroline Finley mobile hos
pitaI unit which was recently accept
ed by the French government, Will be
financed by the National American
Woman Suffrage Association as a
part OF the war work activities OF the
association, 1t was announced today.
A cablegram from DR.. Finley arrived
during the first days OF the conven-
tion of the suffrage advocates in
Washington announcing the official
acceptance OF the unit by the French
hospital authorities.
The Finley unit will not only re-
ceive the support OF the association,
but will be enabled TO build a hospital
in the devastated Alsne diltrict at a
cost OF $4,000. Because OF the re-
markable personnel OF the unit, suf-
fragists consider il particularly ap-
propriate that the unit should be sup
ported by women. DR.. Finley organ
ized her unit under the provision that
there should be no men included. Even
the mechanics OF the unit are wom-
en-.
Secretary and Mrs. Newton d.
Baker were the speakers at the ses-
sion last night at Polls Theater. In
his address the Secretary tolG the con
vention that the women of America
are playing an indispensable part in
the war.
III the women in America should
Withdraw their support and stop max
ing the sacrifices they are making,
we should have TO withdraw from the
war;" the Secretary said.
More than Sl20, 900 was pledged for
the coming years expenses at the af
ternoon session. Confident that the
suffrage amendment will pass Con
sresS, the convention also voted to
sublet their Washington headquar-
ters. and provided for a removal to
either Chicago or st. Louis.

RECOMMENDATION
OF PRESIDENT is
PRESENTED TO WIFE

Mrs. Woodrow Wilson was present
ed a bronze medallion OF President
Wilson at the White House yesterday
by sour Heroes" Inc. OF New York.
The presentation was made by George
L. Mainardy, OF Brooklyn, n. V, who
is now connected with the American
Red Cross at Washington.
The medallion is ten and a quarter
inches in diameter and is mounted on
a piece OF Belgium black marble, fif-
teen and a quarter inches wide with
the corners OF the marble cut octag-
onally. The corners and sides are
beveled in rather unique fashion and
there is also an Rstragal fluting an
inch from the medallion, giving it a
very decorative aspect, though classic
in its simplicity.
It was designed by Macmillan
Fyscher, who has returned from Paris
recently after a nine-year stay there.
II was executed by the italian sculp-
ter, Anthony de Francisci, OF New
York.
In presenting the medallion Mr..
MsInardy said:
"On behalf OF Our Heroes il is my
honor and privilege to present to you
this medallion OF your esteemed hus-
band and our illustrious President,
Woodrow Wilson.
please accept it with our best
wishes and cherish it with our prayer
that he may long be spared to you
and the glorious and humane nation
which he represents, and we pray
that his now untiring efforts in the
interests OF all the living mankind
may be-fulfIled OF Peace on Earth,
good will to all men
I'VE humbly thank you for its ac-
ceptance."

Glass distinctions in the American

In sharp contrast. Nh. Miller said.
was the system that obtained in the
French army.
1T Is the pEiyat" soldier that il the
idol Of France" he asserted. The
Frenchman cares nothing for class or
rank Both are but incidents to
armies. It is the private who must
do the fighting"
Mr.. Miller said that in TIA" French
army the private is not made to feel
he is an inferior TO the officer.
How different this particular is
;he boaEted democracy OF America"
he exclaimed.
