FROM INF TRIBUNE FILES


The slavery question cannot be put to
sleep; if the Republicans keep quiet a
little while. the Democrats are sure to
raise it to life. 1t has broken out anew
IN the NJ + church of this city, among
the disciples of John Wesley, who de-
nounce the system of American slavery
as ''the sum of all vllanies. " 1t has
been the custom of this church TO send
resolutions to the conference. This
year committee of Democrats were
appointed TO draw up the resolutions,
who proceeded TO draft something
based on the Democratic platform, as
the sense of the church. The minister
refused to sign but the resolutions
We're sent and created great surprise
on account of their unehristian charac-
ter. The matter has occasioned con-
siderable ferment from the fact that
nlne-tentbs of the members of the
church were opposed to slavery.

HEALTH FOR THE
SCHOOL CHILD

AS preventive measure the
State tuberculosis Association will
soon launch drive to locate every
undernourished Iowa child.

by the sale of Red Cross Christmas
Seals which is scheduled to take
place December 1st to 10th.
Ninety per cent Of the proceeds
derived from the sale will be used
in this state. Ten per cent is sent
to the National tuberculosis Associ-
alton.
Three of our American tubercu-
losis experts are now in London
representing the United States at
the meeting of the British associa-
ton for the prevention Of tubercu-
losis.
Recognizing the fact that proper
feeding is one Of the chef factors in
health the University Of Iowa is
sending out a bulleton on the sub
ject Of diet for the school child.

intensive educational campaign a

BOY SCOUT MOVEMENT

The Boy Scout movement has fill
ed the need which has always exist
ed for something useful to fill the
spare time of boys. The Boy Scouts
are kept so busy doing useful
things that there is no time for
harmful things.
And people who do not know
boys very we'll, have been. surpris-
ed to see that it works.
Scouting has been a success be-
cause it goes right into the realm
where real boys live. 1t brings
them the food their spirits crave
a code Of life that a boy can warm
up to and understand, Of honor,
romance, mystery and adventure.
Pioneer Scouting is the big new
thing which gives the farmer boy a
chance. 1t tends to make him
contented with his surroundings.
He sees new reasons for wanting tc
stay on the farm, and if he goes
out into the world he will be
among his four thousand brother
Scouts.

In Church
BY AMY E. CAMPBELL.

I go to church with Mother cause
She says she loves to have me
there.
She says my eyes are big and round,
And that there's sunshine in my
hair
She says I make it twice as sweet,
And that l fill her heart with
prayer.
The people sit 50 very still.
With sort of sleepy, starry eyes;
They rustic, yawn or look through
books.
They look so stupid or so wise.
l wonder God delights in them
When He is looking from the
skies.
"But Mothers eyes have little lights
That make her different and dear;
She often smiles down just at me.
AS if to say, pm glad you're
here"
And takes my hand so warm and
1t makes my heart feel sort Of
queer.
And once | told her that my church
Was just the bit of bluest sky,
And dancing leaves the window
shows, -.
The little window we sit by
| told her that l loved that best.
And she said, Darling, so do IT.

A. Halloween Party.

Some days ago we replied to an
inquiry asking for suggestions for
entertainment at Halloween par
ty. Since that time we have had
numerous letters asking to have that
answer repeated. and we are there
fore giving it again as follows:
Come dressed as ghosts. Enter
by basement or back door. Have
the house dimly lighted and the
basement not at all. Hang lantern
or a jack-'o-lantern at the entrance
and let the guests stumble along as
best they can TO get into the recep-
ton rooms. Pin number on each
ones back. Give guests pencils and
slips and let them guess the identity
of their ghostly companions. Not
one word shall be spoken except by
the one in charge, until all have
written down their guesses. Then
let each unmask and check up the
lists to see who has guessed the
greatest number correctly. If you
are having progressive games,
punch the tally card of the person
gaining the highest point in this first
stunt"
Pass around sheets Of paper about
the size Of telegraph blank and
have the girls write message COM
posed of words whose first letters
spell Halloween" The one writ
ing the best (Which means, the fun
niest) gets tally mark.
the tail. Blindfold girls and give
Oh ri, 70 MI, q q n
the right place.
Hang up apples by string, and
give each girl minute, or two min
utees, in which to get a bite. Those
who get bites, get tally marks.
Sit around in q dark room. Pass
different objects from one to an
other. This will prove to be more
hysterical fun than it sounds, for
you can get peculiarly shaped OBJ
jects and uncanny feeling ones. A
piece Of long. thin. cold, bologna,
for example, feels like a snake. If
you can slip in a kitten and pass it
around last, you won't lack for ex-
element. No tally mark for this.
Supply the guests with crepe
paper, pins, scissors and paste and
let each one make a hat, or cap,
for herself The finest creation
should draw a tally mark.
Give prize to the one receiving
greatest number of tally marks.
Decorations can be suitable to the
superstitions of the season-witches
and black cats, cut out of paper, and
pumpkins or jack Lanterns in
abundance. Fortune telling, an
ouija or planchette board would add
greatly to the merriment Let mys-
terry and weirdness surround every
thing. Local stationery departments
or stores will have paper novelties
for sale which will help you further.
Popcorn, apples and pumpkin pie
are appropriate and simple refresh
ments. Taffy pulls were a popular
pastime in former days for this oc-
casion. If you wish a two-course
luncheon, serve Sandwiches, salad,
pumpkin pie and coffee. Hot tamales
are appropriate. Baked beans and
brown bread, with Coffee, are often
served at older peoples parties on

How to Acquire Hair
Beauty

You can enjoy a delightful sham
poo with very little effort and for a
very trifling cost, if you get from
your druggists package Of can
throx and dissolve q teaspoonful in
a cup Of hot water. This makes a
full cup Of shampoo liquid, enough
so it is easy to apply it to all the
hair instead of just the top Of the
head. Your shampoo is now ready.
Just pour . little at a time on the
scalp and hair until both are en-
tirely covered by the daintily per-
fumed preparation that thoroughly
dissolves and removes every bit Of
dandruff, excess oil and dirt. After
rinsing the hair dries quickly with
a fluffiness that makes it seem
heavier than it is, and takes on a
rich luster and . softness that
makes arranging it pleasure.
