Mr.. CLARK ADVOCATES
PRACTICAL EDUCATION
Representative a Speaker at Fifth
Conference Held in Suffrage
Association Quarters.
CAT TALES.

Education should be as practical as
possible, Representative Champ Clark
told those who attended the confer
ence on education held at the National
American Woman Suffrage Associa-
ton headquarters last night. The
conference was the fifth in a series
on reconstruction problems.
Tracing the history of man from the
days of Adam and Eve, Representa-
tive Clark declared that the chief
business of at least 95 per cent of all
the people of all the world has been
to provide for themselves and their
dependents food, raiment and shelter.
That compulsion will be upon US
and our descendants SO long as the
world endures." Mr.. Clark said, advo-
eating education las practical as pos
sible."
Advocates New Department.
Creation of department and secre-
tary of educa. ion in the federal gov
eminent was advocated by Repre-
sentative Horace NJ. Towner of Iowa.
The plan of the Smith-Towner bill
now before Congress is to take edu-
cation from its subordinate bureau in
the Department of the Interior and
make it a separate department with
a secretary as member of the cabinet
Representative Towner explained.
1T would provide a separate fund
from which appropriations would be
made to states willing to provide
like amount" Mr.. Towner said. THE
money would be spent entirely under
the direction of the state for any or
all of these purposes: The removal
Of illiteracy, the Americanization of
foreigners, equalizing educational OPP
portunities. physical education, in
Guiding health and sanitation. and the
preparation of teachers"
Plea for Better Pay.
Senator Wesley NJ. Jones, Philander
P. Claxton, commissioner of educa-
ton, and Hugh S. McGill of the Ma
tional Education Association were
other speakers. The latter made a
plea for better pay for teachers, de-
claring:
To-day because of the low salaries
paid teachers, averaging less than is
paid the unskilled laborer. thousands
of American children are being taught
by teachers of foreign accent, foreign
habits and thought and foreign stand
ards of living. While we are talking
about Americanizing the adult for
eigner we are permitting our Amer
lean children to be Europeanized in
our public schools"

"Will Bring Down Glass Lines"

Clubs ordinarily tend toward class
distinction and one-sided interests
said Mr.. Allies. They tend to decen-
tralize The City Club. however, will
bring about a CONTEMPLATION, a COM
munity of interest. 1t will bring
down class lines. 1t will enable men
to meet not merely the colleagues in
their profession or business, but men
of other callings and other interests.
This project is the greatest ever
started in Washington, for it means
better understanding between the
people of the city. 1t will work to-
ward the security and success of the
people of the capital"
Mr.. Allies suggested that the club
might later be developed along the
lines of the great clubs of Havana.
which have as many as $4,000 and
$4,000 and even $4,000 members. He
said that the cooperative possibili
ties of the club would be limitless.
Tells of Growth from 2S8 to 722.
]. A. Whitfield. president of the
club. who presided. told of the growth
of the club from 2SS to 722 members
in less than a month. He said that
the problem was not one of seeking
new members. but of supplying the
desired information to those citizens
already eager to join. He announced
that Charles +. Nesbit. second vice
chairman of the committee on men,
berShip applications. had been called
from the city by business and that it
would be necessary within a few days
to announce successor for the carry
ing on of his important duties. Six
additional team captains also will
be appointed to take the place of Ro-
tarians who are to attend the con-
vention of their organization at Salt
Lake City.
THE City Club is being acclaimed
with enthusiasm" said Mr.. Whitfield,
and everybody is on the band
wagon"
Mr.. Whitfield suggested that after
the membership of 1900 is raised and
the 100000 clubhouse is erected it
might be possible to enlarge the
number of members and lower the
dues, but that this plan would not be
Immediately considered.
Says Aim to Include All Interests.
The aim of the club is to include
men from every field of life, from
every branch of activity" said D. J.
Callahan. THE vigor and enthusiasm
of the officers and the new members
augurs well for strong and valuable
organization"
F. b. Wilcox, who had been appoint
ed team captain at lunch time yes
terday. announced last night that he
had already secured six membership
applications ]. H Keane. captain of
another team, returned yesterday
morning from three-week trip and
by lunch time reported six applica-
tions.
Charles W. Semmes, chairman of the
membership committee, suggested the
appointment OF one or two 1ieuten-
ants on each team to assist the can
tains. Plans also were discussed for
general meeting in the near future

AN OLD RECIPE
TO DARKEN HAIR
Sage Tea and Sulphur Turns
Gray, Faded Hair Dark
and Glossy.

Almost everyone knows that Sage
Tea and Sulphur, properly compound
ed, brings back the natural color and
sustre to the hair when faded, streaked
or gray. Years ago the only way to get
this mixture was to make 1t at home,
which is mussy and troublesome.
Nowadays we simply ask at any
drug store for ''Wyeth's Sage and Sui
phur Compound" You will get large
bottle of this old-time recipe improved
by the addition of other Ingredients,
at very little cost. Everybody uses
this preparation now, because no one
can possibly tell that you darkened
your hair. as 1t does it so naturally
and evenly. You dampen sponge or
soft ~brush with it and draw this
through your hair, taking one small
strand at time; by morning the gray
hair disappears. and after another ap-
plication or two, your hair becomes
beautifully dark, thick and glossy and
you look years younger. Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Compound is a delightful
toilet requisite. 1t is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention OF
disease.

INDIGESTION
LOSS OF APPETITE
And Similar Troubles Helped by zlron Iron
Tonic, Says Albanian.

"T got a bottle of Ziron", writes
Marshall Rhordes, of Eufaula, Ala,
"and took it for indigestion, nervous
ness. loss of appetite and similar trou-
bles. 1t helped me very much. My
mother-in-law suffered with the same
troubles, so I gave her a dose or two
of Ziron, and she says 1t helped her
greatly. | will always keep bottle
of Ziron in the house and will speak
a good word for it whenever I have
the opportunity"
Ziron is a new combination of Iron,
with the hypophosphites Of lime and
soda, and other valuable tonic ingre-
dents, which have been found to
build up the enemic, weak, worn-out
system. Ziron puts iron into your
blood when you need 1t. If you are
pale, weak, nervous, depressed, have no
appetite, 1t is probably sign that your
blood needs Iron. Take Ziron.

tee. See him about It.
