if he broke into a house. Besides
the watch he got watch chain, a
string of beads, two solid gold we'd
ding rings and number of trinkets.
The four were picked up after they
had been lettering about the streets
and taken to the county Jail, where
under examination they said they
left home to go to Chicago to seek
employment
The watch which Farden sold 10
the secondhand dealer was turned
over to Sheriff Ayers and will be re
turned TO its owner.

FLOWER HOLDERS FOR TABLE
lyory-coIored Porcelain Makes UP At
tractiVe Set fer a Pleasing
Centerpiece.

Several years ago, when sets Of
porcelain flower holders, which, linked
together to form Ii great centerpiece,
came in, they caused almost dinner
sensation. They seemed too much of
a vogue to stay, but they are here still.
One such set that recently attracted
attention is made of ivOry-colored
porcelain. There are several narrow,
tr0ughlike flower holders that, pushed
together, form an irregular oblong in
the center of the table. Small, short
stemmed flowers are arranged III
masses in these dishes.
Then there are eight tall candle
sticks to match, and they are grouped
around the flower dishes. \ mirror
fits nicely into the space defined by
lhc flower dishes, and Of course re
fleets the flowers above and around it.

SPARThcUS HERO
OF GERMAN REDS
Leader of Revolt by Slaves IS
Honored by LiehkneCht
Followers.
1EFIED ROMANS FOR YEARS
Slaves, Under Leadership of Man
Chosen as Godfather of German
Revolution, Captured Most
of Southern Italy.

New York.-Perhaps it's Just as
well to call them Sparts.
Just when we were learning to say
bOlsheyiki, and were learning 10 give
1t about as universal an application as
we used to give to camou1age before
that screly tried word was officially
entombed by the Society for the De-
cent Burial Of Hackneyed Words,
along came these Germans, with their
Schrecklichkeit and head cheese, and
sprung Spartacus on US.
That was right in line with their
other unfair tactics, gas, flame throw
ers and gingerbread saIoon-fronts.
But now that we have Spartacus
with us, what are we going to do
about 1t?
The Spartacus group" was the
name the German ultra radicals adopt
cd when they first hung out their
single in the blood-letting business.
But that sort of name never would do.
SO, we have the papers, in their eX-
tremity, alluding to them yariouSly as
and Spurtaci. Objection is made TO
the aforementioned designation be-
cause it Is very close to homocide,
suicide, regicidr, fratracde, insecti-
eide and such like occupations. There
is not lacking n considerable party
which claims Spartacism is all of that
and more. But, the ending" cide,' from
the Latin caedo, to kill, always kills
whatever it is added to. Kills what
it goes after, as it were. A homocide
is a mankiller, a suicide is a self
killer, and an insecticide Is an insect
killer. SO Spartacde would be a
Spartacusiiller. And that isn't what
we want to say at all.
And Not Only That
In the same way Spartacusscr
might be accused of heaping prolane
invcctive upon Spartacus and all his
works, and Il SpartaCan might be sus-
pcCted of being Il mere subterfuge for
tying a can on one end of SpartaCus,
and you can see very easily how a
Spartacrat might be mixed up with
an aristocrat.
Maybe it's just as well to call them
Sparts or just sparts, and thereby
avoid complications.
The sparts take their name froln a
/ certain Mr.. Spartacus, whose in. ials
have been lost somewhere in the shut

AYOUJNG WOMAN
INDIAN GRADUATE
Of Bombay University Is In England
To Ask For Women New Franchise
Scheme In India.
Associated Press

LONDON, Nov. 22-Miss Mithibai
Tata, a young Indian graduate OF
Bombay University, has come to Eng
land with her mother, Mrs. Merabai
Tata, to ask for the inclusion of wom-
en- in the new franchise scheme for
India. Mrs. Tata represents Bombay
women and 43 branches of the Indian
Women's Association.
Because they arrived too late to
give evidence before the Parliament
tary Committee on Indian affairs
their full statement is being publish
ed as an appendix to the report.
"We feel that this is the great
chance for Indian women to obtain
the franchise says Miss Mithibai
Tata. Postpone the measure now and
it means that we shall be actually dri-
ven backward, and barriers will have
been raised in the way of our prog
ress which will with difficulty be sur
mounted
She does not ask that all women
should be enfranchised but only that
those who have the same qualifica-
tons as men should have the same
right and she wants the Indian wom-
en- to have the education that comes
with the possession of responsibility.
1--WE feel very strongly" she adds,
"that if differentiation is made now
between the sexes it will be much
more difficult to get back to the op-
portunities that exist today"

Mems and Women's Clothes
Sholv Influences of War

Has the war effected wearing ap.

proves the affirmative. Everywhere
are army and navy top coats warm

over ordinary folks. with a good warm
breeze chaser left over from their SO.

Especially advantageous is the khaki
coat for 1t can be converted into a
gorgeously camouflaged topper. which
would pass for tailored anywhere.
Dyers and furers have worked won
ders with several Richmond coats.
Into the field of woman's dress the
influence of the war has also seeped.
Many girls and women are wearing
suits and coats cut along military
lines, and especially noticeable are
the heavy aviation leather coats,
which have gained in popularity so
much this season. Some are real
leather Leatherette and near leather
are also used.
