Amendment Returned TO
Calendar on Motion by
Chairman Jones
President Receives
Mission Of Women
Each Member Of Delega-
ton Hears Wilson Ex-
press Thanks for Visit

WASHINGTON, Oct. S.-The Federal
woman suffrage amendment, which
fsiled in tho Senate last Tuesday by
two votes less than the requisite two
thirds majority, to-day was returned to
the Senate calendar in position for
future action. By viva vocc vote the
Senate adopted q motion by Chairman
.lones Of the Suffrage Committee for
reconsideration of Tuesdays vote.
After Vice President MARSHALL had
ruled that bare majority, instead of
two-thirds. would be required to adopt
Senator Jones's motion for reconsd-
Grafton, opponents Of woman suffrage
made little objection, although they
declared the procedure unfortunate in
ltS likelihood to continue agitation and
0etract Senators attention from war
legislation.
There is no present intention to seek
q vote on the resolution, Senator Jones
said. and ample notice of vote will be
given.
President Wilson to-day delivered
one of the few, but highly interest
ing. presidential addresses which, in
all likelihood, viii never find its way
INTO print.
The President received q delegation
of some hundred women suffragists,
most of them of the National Ameri-
ican Woman Suffrage Association, rep
resenting practically every state and
headed by DR.. Anna Howard Shaw and
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait. They came
70 express their thanks for his address
10 the Senate earlier in the week, and
Tor all his efforts toward adoption OF
the woman suffrage constitutional
amendment resolution in Congress.
What the President said Will not be
printed because the affair was private,
and it was generally understood that
his remarks were not to be given out,
but it can be said that he expressed
his views of the Senate's rejection of
the resolution in terms which have
attracted the worlds attention to his
rhetCric.
Al the conclusion of the reception
the President greeted each woman, ex-
pressing his appreciation of her visit

given a gun and taught to correctly

they might not be menace to them

boy who is of requisite age to qualify
as a member of the boy scouts is old
enough to be taught safety first in the
handling of guns. On patriotic day

imposed upon the entire populace OF

Attention Americans. Politically
we scrap. When foreign foe assails
us we are a unit and put up solid
front for the protection of our beloved
country and flag against a common en-
envy. We stand by Uncle Sam and
endorse our president, until the crack
of doom, unless victory perches upon
our banner prior to that time. We
are into a real war, where no favors
are shown, having resolved itself into
the survival Of the fittest."
Is America nation Of skilled
marksmen, emphatically yes, not only
marksmen, but fight at the drop of
the hat soldiers. The pioneer ele-
ment of our country both male and
female, were conversant with the use
and handling of fire arms, in the pur-
suit of game and securing of meat,
which meant family sustenance. In
every home in the outside districts OF
America, there is now standing in the
corner a gun, which was in former
days the family meal ticket.

ger pulled. The unwritten code of
just enough powder to cover the bull
let was the accepted load The rifle
was the family pride and divided hon
ors with the spinning wheel as util-
ity factor, both were family neces-
stiles. In those days all Americans
were accredited marksmen, every
man a made-to-order soldier ready to
report and fight because he was able
to accurately shoot, a requisite then or
now.
In offices and homes Of the present
generation a very different condition
has prevailed. The meal ticket Of to-
day is not the gun or rod. This has
been supplanted by the ticker tape, or
the formulating OF corners on LIES
commodities. Turning of the spinning
wheel, has relegated into the winding
of the victrola. Cross country hikes
In search OF game are now made in

1776 has been a neglected art, elimin-
ated by the passing Of our pioneer
relatives.
