American Exports

Chicago, Oct. 10.-Invasion of the United States by foreign jewelry buy CTS in unprecedented numbers is de- clared by tradesmen to indicate the rapid developmnt of the export of the United States in jewelry.
 "The foreign demand" said a trade expert, accounts for the scarcity of many kinds of jewelry in the domes- tic trade. The United States is ship ping more jewelry to Europe than ever before. Large exports also are going to South America.
 "The growth of this country's jew elry trade with South America was looked for, Germany formerly was the chief source of supply for the South American market. When the war cut off absolutely this German trade, South American merchants turned naturally to the United States.
 "But the recent rapir growth of the export trade with Europe is in the na- ture of surprise to American manu-

Women's Club Work No Longer Confined

Fredonia, Kan, Oct. n.-A na- tional viewpoint on woman clubdom was given at the twenty first annual convention of the Third District Fed eration of Women's clubs here today by Mrs. H. c. Garvey Topeka, ex- state president and present Kansas secretary of the national federation. Mrs. Garvey discussed the biennial convention of the national federation to be held in Des Moines, Ia., next spring. Kansas clubs will be re- presented at the convention by eight delegates-one from each district and Mrs. Garvey urged that because of the proximity of the next Ma tional convention a large number of Kansas club women should attend. At each of the district club feder- ation meetings this fall a delegate and alternate to the national conven- tion is elected.
 Pointing out that the trend of woman club work in recent years has been to break away largely from it's former bounds of literature and art, Mrs. Garvey said the club women in every state as we'll as Kansas, are

Cooking Suggestions
(By Muriel king.1

Along with Soph Hop and Junior Prom dance programs, which Nancy still cherished as mementoes of her student days was the tiny skillet which had accompanied her on many an "undergergrad" hike. During the Indian summer, Nancy and Marion invited kindred spirits and with party of six or so every Sun day morning packed their Tt and journied forth to cook their break fast like real woodsmen.
 Their favorite destination was an old sand bar on the Raw river, not more than half hours hike from the center of the little university town, yet wild enough to suit the girls most primitive tastes. One of the good scouts of the party built the fire, for which the others gathered the clean, dry driftwood, strewn along the sand.
 Sometimes they made coffee, cook ing it at one side of the fire in a miniature coffee pot, while they had the bacon filled, skillet high over the other side to cook slowly and evenly. After they removed the bacon, put ting it on a paper plate, they cook ed the eggs in the bacon drippings. Because of the conveniences of trans, portation, they brought evaporated milk for their coffee instead of cream and found it's richness just suited their quickened tastes.
 At other times they preferred ap- pie cider, carried in the thermos bottle, "wieners" roasted on long sticks over the fire, buns, pickles, ripe olives, and shiny red apples. They always chose their bacon, but ter, eggs, wieners, olives, coffee and evaporated milk of a known quality brand, purchased from dealer who kept complete line of these goods.
 Such breakfasts might be heavy and indigestible to jaded, sedentarv taste, satisfied with a French roll and coffee, but healthy young appe- tites, sharpened by exercise and the keen bracing air, can only be appeas- ed by such a meal.

This campaign is to embrace not only removal of fire risks in the home, but in public buildings as well.

London, Sept. 1G.-(Correspondence of The Associated Press. .)-After ten months of trial the higher authorities of the Metropolitan police have de- eided that women police officers have made good and the 100 now on duty will be retained.

 The forces was recruited from the patrol workers of the National Union of Women Workers employer by the commissioner in 1916 to aid in the protection of the city. They did ex- cellent work, but last November it was felt that the pressing need for them had passed and they were dis banded.
 The cessation of hostilities, how ever, brought thousands of young of ficers from the fighting front to Iondon, and the fear that an orge of dissipation might follow the rigors of life nthe trenches induced the po- lice to retain 100 picked women for duty in the night life sections.
 Their work was preventive in a large measure. particular attention being devoted to young girls who mi"ht be attracted to such places. So well did they carry out the plan that their nermanent worth has now been recognized.

lecturers. The war seriously crippled jewelry manufacturing all over Flu rope. In Germany and Austria it al most wiped it out for the time being. These two countries were among the largest European manufacturers of jewelry. It will be long before the European manufacturing trade gets back to normal. In the meantime, Europe also is looking to America to make up the deficiency in it's SUD- ply.
 "While the United States at pres ent is shipping over enormous quan- titles of the cheaper sort of jewelry to take the place of the plated, filled and imitation wares which formerly came from Germany and Austria, much of the jewelry sent over is of the best quality of workmanship. The scarcity of watches in Europe is especially marked.
 "While the resumption of manu- featuring in European countries will gradually cut down the American ex- ports, the European field offers fine opportunity for an increasing Ameri- can trade for many years yet, and l believe the United States eventually will be able for the greater part of it's gains in exports"

Fayetteville, Oct. 1.-The Wo- mems Athletic Association of the University of Arkansas was organiz- ed yesterday afternoon for the pur- pose of promoting healthful exercise among the young women of the in- stitution, and with the intention of making application for membership in the Southwestern Athletic Associa- tion for Women, which is an intercol- legiate organization similar to the Southwestern Conference for men.
 Officers were elected and plans were made for basket ball and hockey games with other universities. Miss Lillian E. Williams, head of tho De- partment of Physical Education for Women, stated emphatically that the girls would not play institutions of lower rank than the university, as it would tend to lower the standard of athletics. The large number of young women in attendance mani fested intense enthusiasm in the plans.
