All Aboard For the Suffrage Bazar SpecaP Which Will Take ''he Missus and Kiddies Straight to the
 Children's Party This Afternoon at Hotel Hllman

this accomplished gentleman, and he will call out his best dancers among the little folk and show the others just how accomplished some of his pupils are.
 And, kiddies, listen to this: There's going to be fortune teller who will tell you the most marvellous things. myste- rious and wonderful and you must not for get to visit her, because she might have something of importance to say to you
 No children's party would be complete of course without a grab bag" and so the suffrage bazar has arranged one, with Mrs. B. A. Pepperman in charge there will be all sorts of wonderful sur prises and the little tots will be like: Little Jack Horner,
 Who sat in q corner
 Eating his Christmas pie.
 He put in his thumb,
 And pulled out a plumb,
 And said: What smart boy am l.
 Now, maybe I shouldn't have told about all the lovely things which have been planned for the children's party this afternoon, but you know I'm an awful "tattletale;" and besides, when pretty Mrs. Spencer who has charge of the juvenile attractions for the bazar. told me about them I just couldn't keep the secret to save my life; it was too good to enjoy all by myself, so "the cats out of the bag" and if they want to pinch me for telling, why, we'll know the l1iddes won't let them, be- cause I've let them into the secret, and Pm sure they will all be on hand this afternoon when Miss Virginia Handley and the drummer boys strike up "Over There" and the conductor calls out: "All aboard for the suffrage bazaar special, which will take the missus and the kiddies straight to the children's
 party at the Hotel Hillman."

V N Y HEN the next generation comes WW along, the feminine part of 1t
 went have to wait until it is


 WN ' HEN the next generation comes MW along, the feminine part of 1t
 V went have to wait until it is full grown to know something about suffrage" because the present genera tion is seeing to 1t that nobody goes uninstructed on that subject, even to the babies.
 That's the reason--one of the reasons why the suffrage bazaar decided to have a "children's party" as grand finale to the beautiful bazar which has been in progress for the past few days at the Hotel Hillman.
 The "childrens party planned by the committee composed of Mrs. Edward w. Barrett, Mrs. Warner Shook, Mrs. Fe- lix Drennen, Mrs. John Caldwell. Mrs. Fred LeVert, Mrs. William M. Walker, and Mrs. Robert Meyer, will include, besides all the amusement and enter tainment features of the regular chil- drens party, an introduction to suffrage by the way of suffrage buttons, for these will be awarded to the success full contestants in various games, one of which will include the pinning of the IlDDOH OH the SLale Ol 4N6W IOi c game similar to the donkey game, which is familiar to most of the children; in fact, this game will teach the young sters to walk right up to the big map of New York and pin the ribbon on just like the women will walk right up and put the ballot in the box.
 And then the playground arrangement for the kiddies will include sand piles, little buckets and shovels, swings and all sorts of things like that and while giving the boys and girls equal rights" | in the games, the home side of the ques- 1 ton will not be neglected, for there will ] be a little nursery where the kiddies can play ladies if they choose, and the tiniest of the babies can sleep peace | fully In little beds while the nurses take care of them, thus impressing them that suffrage does not mean neglect of the home.
 | And one of the joys of the chill dren's party will be guessing con- test" and this is what will happen: Jars filled with beans will be used for this game and while the little boys and girls may not be able to guess how many beans are in the jar it is a safe guess that they will be told what to do with them the next day, because a 1 special Hoover luncheon,' with beans will be mentioned, and the little folks
 will be told that beans are the one best bet of the Hooverized dishes these days.
 And again-the kiddies will learn all about the flags of our allied nations al the children's party; when the little tots are wornout and tired from playing
 games or dancing, they may sit under the French flag and enjoy an ice cream
 cone or bask under the flag of dear lit
 tie Belgium or listen to thrilling wal
 stories which will be told under the
 waving flag of grand old England.
 And speaking of stories. Elizabeth
 Dickinson and Mary Baines are going te
 make the kiddies happy by telling some
 wonderful stories this afternoon; they
 are both gifted in the art of story tell } ing and with the kiddies gathered abou
 them they will make their little hearts } glad by regaling them with fairy storie.

Bitter Tears When Ordered to Cut
Down a Fine Hemlock.

That one should feel affection for
great trees is natural. In the Mime
sofa forests / met a lumberman who
told me he wept bitter tears when he
got orders to cut down a fine hem
lock. Every stroke Of the ak seemed
to him to be felt by the sturdy mon
arch whose life he was taking, writes
julius Chambers in the Brooklyn
Eagle.
When / have revisited the woods"
in which as a boy l gathered nuts,
have fancied the trees used to climb
recognized me. They looked the same.
They hadn't aged. The shellback
hickory trees seemed trifie more
dangerous to climb than of yore, and
the walnuts had gained noticeably in
girth, SO that my heightened arm had
barely kept pace with the expanding
bark. / could still encircle their
trunks and could have climbed them
if necessary, but the rewards Of a
winters store of nuts no longer ap-
peal to me. The walnuts and hickory
nuts one buys do not taste like those
gathered with ones own hands.

WAsHINGToN's WILL POWER
Kept His Puonacity In Subsection, but
Occasionally He Allowed Pas
sion to Have Sway.

1t is related of John Adams that
when Stuart exhibited his portrait of
General Washington, Mr.. Adams went
TO see it. After gazing at it for sew
eral minutes he exclaimed, ''That's the
portrait of man who knew how to
hold his. tongue, which this old fool
never did!
The portrait does indicate that the
original could be reticent. but it also
shows that he could control himself.
The square, massive jaw, the full,
broad-based nose, and the compressed
lips express pugnacity and passion.
such as require strong will to keep
them in subsection.
Sometimes even Washington allowed
his passion to have sway.
When Glover's Marblehead fisher
men and Morgan's Virginia rifiemen
were engaged in rough and tumble
fight, Washington leaped from his
horse over the bars of the camp fence,
dashed among the rioters, seized two
brawny riflemen by the throat and,
shaking them at arms length, subdued
not only them, but the whole band.
It was the victory due to command
ing strength, presence and manner.
The men saw that they must obey, and
they obeyed,
