GENERAL NEWS

The Twin Falls Times says: Ford
cars have been run with spirits fru-
menti as substance for water in the
radiator and some even short distances
without anything, but there is an in
stance where a quantity Of perfectly
good pure Essence Of COW" was pour
ed into the opening under the radiator
cap, when the driver two weeks ago
found himself miles from water in
Central Oregon, with his radiator
steamine hot from long hill climb.
Fred Wilcox is the individual. Milk
is for babies and for grown people
who appreciate it's food value, and
when Wilcox poured the contents Of
his milk can into his Ford he robbed
himself of his evening meal, or part
Of it, but the stunt worked, and that
is all that interested the dairyman
at the time. The comedy of the stu
alton came, however, when Wilcox
finally reached water hole and took
off the radiator cap. A familiar odor
greeted his nostrils-fresh churned
butter; not of the quality which Will
cox generally turns out, but butter
just the same The action of the milk
being forced from the radiator to the
engine and back again on the run had
churned it into butter. Wilcox de-
clares the only thing that kept the
engine from overheating was the but
termilk which was left. And just to
show that Wilcox's early Scotch
training had not been altogether lost,
he drained the melted butter from the
radiator, let it cool, SKINNED off the
buttermilk, and had quart or more
of perfectly good lubricant, which he
used to fill his grease cups.

FLANDERS POPPIES AS
MEMORIAL TO WARS
HEROES OF CLEVELAND

Cleveland, Ohio, March LII
the efforts OF City Forester Harrf
c. Hyatt are successful in getting
seed for the flowers, Flanders pop
pies are to be grown along Liber-
ty Row, Cleyeland's memorial
thoroughfare, to her war heroes
who fell in the war.
The planting of poppy fields as
reverential tribute to soldiers
who have died overseas has been
inspired by the poem OF Col. John
McCrea, Canadian, who died on
the battlefield:
"In Flanders fields the
poppies grow
Between the crosses, row
on row.
II Mr.. Hyatt is unable TO OBJ
tain poppy SEED direct from
Flanders, other poppy varieties will
be planted. liberty Row, running
from University Circle through
shaker Lakes Park, will commem-
crate Cleveland's soldiers k.hed in
war by a Victory oak planted in
honor of each, and marked with a
bronz tablet bearing his name"

THE SUFFRAGE STRUGGLE
JUST PART OF A BIGGER
FIGHT FOR HUMANR RIGHTS

The approaching jubilee conveu-
ton OF the National America Wom-
an Suffrage Association to be held
in ST. Louis at the Statler Hotel
March 2t29, brings to mind some
thing that one third of the men in
the United States senate have for
gotten-if they ever knew it--and
that is that the progress of woman's
freedom has been a part of the
American struggle for human free
dom for $50 years, and that every
person, man or woman, who has
ever entered the fight to gain votes
Tor women has entered it as a neces-
sary part OF the greater fight for
human freedom.
Listen, YOU who do not know your
American history! 1t was Mercy
Otis Warren who, counseling Amer
lean independence to John Adams
and Thomas Jefferson, was the frS;
person to base the struggle OF the
colonies on inherent rights L
phrase men have since used to keep
women out OF politics. She fought
for human rights, believing that
human meant men and women,
Women Had No Liberty.
Fifty wears later a woman, Frnes-
tine /. Rose, banishcd from Poland
by one OF those Austrian IIapsburgs
who almost split the world in two in
1914, because they even then had
learned nothing about human rights,
came to America to seek liberty and
ccturcd on the science OF govern
ment. She wanted frecdom-the
same kind Paderewski is working for
today. She found that American
women had no liberty. They could
/ not dispose OF their own property
could not own their own earnings,
could not make a will.
Ernestinc Rose and Paulina
Wright, and more than all others,
Elizabeth Cady Stanton, the frs,
president Of the National Woman
Suffrage Association, worked for
years TO get decent property rights
for American women. They were
responsible for the passage OF the
New York state bill OF 1913, which
as legal authority has just pointcd
out, is the most comprehensive law

they seemed to be havin' a whale of a

some of her mas funny cracks. And
then Ma Gummidge springs that rollin'

that her mother tried to manage the

saved. Then her mother died. And the

shingles. Then he dropped the silver
watch he'd carried for fifteen years
and before he knew it had stepped
square on 1t with the iron plated heel
Of his work boots, sauashin' the crystal
into the works. And six weeks later
he'd carelessly rested red hot clinker

Off couple of toes. But the climax
came when he managed to bug the
safety catch on the fool-proof ash ele-
vator and took twenty-foot drop

He only had leg broken, at that, but
it was three or four months before he
came limpin' out of the hospital to find
that the buildin' agent didn't care to

Horatio, just as he'd described. And
they was liyin' in back fiat on punk

four dark rooms was about as bare Of
furniture as they could be. expect
you might have loaded the lot on a
push cart. And the rauons must have
been more or less skinny for some
time.
But you couldn't exactly say that Ma

collected q couple OF family washes
from over 7th avenue way and was
wadin' into 'em cheerful. Also she was
