which was formally organized yester-
day at a delightful luncheon at which
Mrs. Arthur r. Springer was hostess
at her home in Polk street.
There are already more than sixty
eight members of the organization,
which sprang into being almost SIM
ultaneously with the recent flower
show given at the city auditorium, for
which the Tuesday Study club and the
West Side Forestry club were sponsors.
Plans were made yesterday to ap-
point committee composed of men
and women competent to judge, to
make observation trips about Topeka
to see what blocks were good models
to follow in the matter of symmetry,
and other things which make for
beauty. Later on the association will
show colored pictures of some of To-
peka's beauty spots for the public to
benefit Dy. 1t is the expectation of
the club that it will become a matter,
not of pride in ones block alone, but
ones street as well.
The table decorations at Mrs.
Springer's luncheon yesterday were ex-
quIsitely simply. A large plateau mir
ror reflected an arrangement or sweet
alyssum and ferns, with small ducks
scattered here and there.

academy graduates this week, feel con-

endeavor she may decide to follow, be-
cause of the unusual record she has
made in school,
She was graduated at 13 from the
common schools with the highest av-
erage in the county, winning thereby a
scholarship to Washburn academy and
also life scholarship to Strickler' s
business college.
During her first year in the acad-

Review, and has written academy and

years. She also won first prize in the

How American Women
May Keep Faces Young

"The American smart woman ages early.
far earlier than the English woman says
Christian Miller, T. c. l.. the famous Eng
Hsh health expert. She adds that our
climate 80 exhilarates that you over-exert
yourselves and grow old before you know
it, That same exhilaNting air dries the
skin. The skin that lacks moisture grows
pale and withered looking and soon forms
wrinkles.
THE American complexion" is hest
treated by applying pure mercolized wax,
which causes the faded. iife,ess euticle to
flake off in minute particles. a little each
day, until the fresh young skin beneath
is wholly in evidence. Every druggist has
this wax: one ounce usually is sufficient.
Spread on at night like cold cream, wash

day attire, with a view to making this
great convention the most successful
ever held in this state.
Senator Thos. p. Core Of Oklahoma
will be the leading speaker at the big
Federated Farmers convention to be
held in Bismarck and Fargo. Senator
Gore is chairman of the United States
senate committee on agriculture.
During the past.two years ne consist
emily fought for a high wheat price
to the farmers. this price to be
manned by governmental authority.
Senator Gore made most telling
speeches in the senate in advocating
higher wheat prices, and to him more
than to any other man wheat farm
ers owe the extra measure of pros
pertty due to the high price estab-
lished by the government.
The senator has always been a
champion OF farmers interests. His
official position at the head of such
an important committee gives him
unusual prominence at this time, al
though he has been a nationwide
figure in public life for many years.
He is known as "'The Blind Senator
from Oklahoma" His affliction has
in no way impaired his forensic
ability. but seems rather to augment
it as the senator grows more Of a
forceful and convincing orator each
year. The subject Of his address at
the Bismarck convention will be ''The
Worlds Situation on Wheat"
