Then came a little speech-making by the chairman of the ''vaad," or village council who was one of the original settlers 35 years ago. He made an appeal for the Red Cross funds in Hebrew, and his words were translated into Eng fish sentance by sentance. Young ladies wearing the red shield of David on their arms made a collection and sold lottery tickets and sweets and cakes for the cause.
 Business over, we had more mus ic, this time from the village band. The young men played with instru- ments which had somehow been hid- den away from the Turks, and the violinist conducted.

 'It is a good life and merry one in the village settlement of Jewish pioneers. The young men and wom- en know that they are remaking a homeland. They are at last freed from the cramping persecution that some of them have known in Russia, and from the menace of Turkish spies, which for the last three years has been the skelton at every feast.

GAN VOTE IN THE SENATE
 ANY TIME NOW

Washington, May 28.---The Suf- fragists can get vote in the Senate any day they desire it. The National party, which is charged by some eDmocratic congTessmen with being a Republican adjunct, claims that the Republicans are ready, but intimates the Democrats are delaying a vote.
 The leading advocates of Woman Suffrage in the Senate withdrew the announcement that the proposed amendment would be taken up on a feared a show down.
 The Alice Paul lobbyists have been busy for several days, trying to win over one or two senators, and to hold in line some of those who are in dan ger of cold feet on the eve of vote. It is apprehended by Senators Curtis, Shepard, Hollis, Jones of Washington and Jones of New Mexico, that a vote would turn out badly for the Suffra- gists. They are not certain of two thirds.
 A statement, of which the following is a part, was issued by the National Woman's party yesterday:
 Suffrage Is now III the nanQS or President Wilson.
 After a conference with the Presi- dent at the White House on the sub- ject of the amendment, Mrs. George Pass of the National Democratic com mittee announced: The vote will be taken soon.'
 There is known to have been a gain in the Suffrage forces since the debate on May 10, caused by the Presidents repeated support of the amendment.
 By word of mouth, on May IA, and by written statement from the White House on May 23, he declared that he was doing everything he could to se- cure it's passage.
 This first written assurance was g letter signed by Secretary Tumulty tc the women intuition workers, who had asked for an appointment witt the President.
 Senators have received letters iron the President written by his owr hand, laying before them his reason for desiring the passage of the amend ment.
 l Cabinet members heretofore op- posed to the amendment have an. nounced their support. Secretary Ian. sing and Postmaster Burleson have both stated within the past week they would support the President in thi. matter"

Woman Candidate
 Loses Nomination

Keighley, England, April 20,-The first woman candidate for Parliament Miss Nina Boyle of the Voters League has been refused a nomination on the ground that each of the two nomina- tion papers handed in by her con tained the name of a man whose register.
 Previously Miss Boyle appeared be- fore the returning officer stated he had received instructions from the Sheriff to admit her nomination with out question privided it was properly signed, so that her rejection appears to be the result only of a strangers name appearing on her paper.
 Miss Boyle said she considered that moral triumph had been achiev- | ed for women, as she had been in formed that her nomination ordinar- fly would have been accepted.
 While I am disappointed" she continued, that a fluke of this kind has prevented actual nomination. it matters little, for if accepted I had decided to withdraw. My purpose in coming to Keighly was simply te test our right to nomination. My test has been successful.
 Unless Parliament decides the question of women entering the House of Commons, it will mean that many women will secure nomi- nation and, if elected, there will be an illimitable number of election pe- titions against their return, bringing confusion in it's train''
 The result of her experience, Miss Boyle asserted, would be of great encouragement to all women's pol. hical organizations throughout the country.

Call of Duty.

That is the situation, and it is the situation which creates the duty, no choice or preference of ours. There is only one way to meet that duty. We must meet it without seifishness or fear of consequences. Politics is ad- 5ourned. The elections will go to those who go to the constituencies without explanation or excuses, with a plain record of duty faithfully and disinterestediy performed.
 I, for one, am always confident that the people of this country will give a just verdict upon the service of the men who act for them when the facts are such that no man can disguise or conceal them. There is no danger of deceit now. An intense and pitiless light beats upon every man and every action in this tragic plot of war that

Base of American Flotilla in Brit ish Waters, Jan. 25.- Correspond ence of the Associated Press.)-Ad- miral Henry T. Mayo, commander of the Atlantic Fleet, has cabled to Vice Admiral Sims, in charge of American naval operations in the war zone, a request for information regarding the suitability of the special winter outfits of clothing furnished to the naval men by the navy department in Washington. Admiral Mayo also wants to know of any recommends tions for changes in these garments.
 The Associated Press correspond ent has yet to hear a word of com plaint against the present outfits worn by the men. Thanks to the busy women who knit, most of the men, early in their arrival here, received excellent sweaters, jerseys and socks which were sent by wives, relatives and friends back home. When the cold weather came on these were aug mented by an entirely new issue of extra heavy winter clothing. Many of these garments were designed by the British from their long experi- ence in torpedo boats in the hard winters off this coast.
 Here are some of the things, which when donned, make some of the men look more like Arctic explorers than bluejackets:
 Helmets of wool which cover all but the eyes, nose and mouth; light knitted coat sweaters, jerseys and cardigan jackets; knitted nittens and gloves; extra heavy coarse un- derclothing; heavy woolen socks and knee-length stockings; leather sea boots; wind proof khaki-colored trousers; great coats lined with lambs wool. The last named are worn over the life jackets and help

to make up the mot serviceable com bination worn by Americans ovd here. They keep the men warm o| the damp, cold days with the bitin winds when the sleet squalls ar hourly affairs and "you can't see a inch"
 Relatives of large majority d men over here continue to send thel knitted things. All sorts of knittd garments arrive and are deeply al preciated. Oftimes the men receiv knitted garments from wife or sweet heart that are not very serviceabl but accompanying letters from honI are so enthusiastic that the men hes itate to utter word of criticism
