when debate began. Before the final
roll call, however, all seats were filled
principally by members of suffragist
organizations. Frequent appause
punctuated the debate, but the loudest
outburst came when Speaker Gillette
announced the final vote.
Both Republican Leader Mondell and
Democratic Leader Clark asked adop-
ton of the resolution. the later refer
ring to President Wilson's request for
such action while Mr.. Mondell praised
the Republican members for their atti-
tudc, pointing out that adoption of the
resolution was the first Legislative act
of the new congress.
Mr.. Clark denied that adoption of
the resolution would interfere with
State rights as was argued by some
Democratic speakers, adding that he
favored the resolution not because
woman suffrage is going to precipi-
tate the millennium but that it is not
going to cause the damage some think
it will"
Representative Kitchin, of North
Carlina, Democratic leader in the last
congress, opposing Suffage bantered
the Republicans for "Quick response to
to the presidents call" and declared
the Republicans during l6 years of
control Of congress refused suffrage
leaving it for the Democrats who had
courage to introduce the measure.
Representative Rakcr California;
Democratic supporter, asserted that a
combined Democratic and Republican
vote was necessary to carry the rcsolu-
ton.
Tho only Republican to speak
against the resolution was Represen-
tative Focht Pcnnsylvania), who as

FIRST LUTHERAN MEN HOLD
GET.ACQUAINTED MEETING
Send Telegram to Legislature Asking
Them to Kill Bill Permitting Nov.
ing Picture Shows on Sunday.

More than fifty of the men Of the
First Lutheran church met last night
for supper and a social evening in
the church parlors. After a very
splendid supper served by Mrs. E..
A. Shirley, Mrs. julius Fauchald, Mrs.
K. Ellison and Mrs. T. f. Gullixson,
an informal get-acquainted meeting
and discussion was had and many of
the problems in which the men of the
congregation are interested, were full
ly and freely discussed and an exceed
ingly pleasant and profitable meeting
resulted.
Five ushers were appointed and a
committee on publicity selected.
At the conclusion Of the meeting it
was unanimously resolved to send a
telegram to the delegation from the
Doth district, asking them to vote
against the bill permitting moving
picture shows on Sunday.
As it was evident how much such
meetings could accomplish in getting
the men of the church better acquaint-
ed with each other and with the prob
lens of the church, it was decided to
hold these meetings quarterly.

-Selken Family Settled in Vermont
Theo. Selken and family, who left
for the east with their automobile
several weeks ago are now located
at Newfame, VT, where they have
purchased farm. Mrs. Selken writes
that they are now located on beau
tiful farm Of 100 acres, with a modern
barn and big 14-room house, with
bath. The following from a Battleboro
paper, tells of their arrival in Yer
mont:
Mr.. and Mrs Theodore Selken and
daughter, Violet, and son, Archie, ar
rived in Newfame Saturday after
q month of travel by automobile from
North Dakota Their Maxwell car
loaded in way similar to the Hamil-
ton cross country automobile, has af-
forded not only means of transporta.
ton but provided for bed and board
on the long trip to Vermont.
They have bought, through Mr.
Jackman Of Newfame, the o. r.
Wright farm on the West river and
will take possession at once.
The fact that their journey was
made without accident or illness anc
that the people all along the way
were so kind and friendly, has made
their venture for home in Vermont
a real pleasure trip. Their success
in this move promises the coming Of
other families from North Dakota tt
the east, where it is hoped they viii
receive the same hearty welcome.

The Hartford herald. [volume] (Hartford, Ky.) 1875-1926, 1919-03-12

Marse Henry is in his dotage.
The shadows are creeping up over
his life even as the gray is creep
ing in his locks. 1t takes no ton
que of the prophet to tell that.
And with age comes the cynical
scorn at all things modern and the
natural tendency to become yis-
pleased with everything that is
new to the customs of the halycon
days when he was in his prime
His vigorous thrust at the League
of Nations, his continual harangue
against prohibition and woman suf-
frage betoken his undisguised op-
position to the progressive move
ments that are the natural produats
of an age that has seen the world
go through Gesthemane and on to
higher things. Though the old
veteran possesses a power that
transcends anything in present day
journalism, his words are not to be
taken as criterion. The great
writer grows old and languishes:
the world moves on. What he be-
lieved fifty years ago we frOwn up
on today-he believed in the slav-
cry of human beings and the Sc
cession of states, else he wouldn't
have fought for it--and yet these
things would not command a fol-
lowing today. Time has tCld the
tale. And so, years hence, free
generation shall look bac', upon
the shackled serfs Of rum and
thank God that they never had to
en- flre this obsolete and ruinous
product of pseudO-ciyilizltion
that has been long east into the
discard.
