a chance to straighten matters up
before it ven loo far, to protect

II Brinton knew that things were
going wrong at the bank, if Brinton
knew that Governor Frazier and
his associates were at fault why
didn't. he come out like a man
and give the people the facts. in
place of trying to shield the crooks.
by giving them a chance to straight

That is what has been the trouble
in the past. We have had men at
The head of our state affairs, our

have been more than willing to

people in Ignorance of what was

Alamo, N. D.. Oct. 12.-Our club. No. ITO, is new
and we have had only a very few meetings, but we
decided to send all we have in the treasury, which is
S19 for the campaign fund.
We would like to have made a drive for funds,
but we have had five years of crop failures. This
year We barely got the seed back. Many of us may
have to leave what we have, as it is impossible to
make our living through the winter. But whatever
happens, We will stay long enough to vote the League
ticket straight. Yours truly, MRS. A. A. HAGEN,

WOMEN RESENT
INEQUALITY
Followers Of Lady Astor
Wonder if She Will Draw
Customary Salary.

A departmental committee of the
British House of Commons recently
decided that woman was worth
three-quarters OF a man.
English women declare IL they had
looked far enough they would have
found" the missing quarter. Now
they are waiting anxiously to see
whether Lady Astor receives the full
$1,000 which is her due as member
of the House of Commons-or
whether she will have to content
herself With $500.
In discussing, the matter of dress
for women M. P.'s. Lady Astof de-
clared she intended to wear only
what a $2.000-a-year woman could
anord to wear. The question now
arises whether she was counting her
eggs before they were hatched-or
whether equal pay for equal work"
principles will induce the House of
Commons to pay up and look pleas
ant.
Only the day before Lady Astor
was elected to Parliament. another
committee. appointed by the presi-
dent Of the board Of education, made
yet another differentiation. They
decided that a single man. on leav-
ing his training college and eneer-
Ing the ranks of teachers, was to
have s640. A woman. likewise Ieav-
ing her training college for the same
profession. was to have $40 less.
The principle .of this decision
somewhat complicates the mathe-
matics in the case of Lady Astor's
salary. and Taxpayers gloomily look
forward to the setting-up Of a spec
ial accounting department to grap-
pie with the problem.
English women are not perplexing
themselves much about 1t. They
think their fair representative will
be more than equal to the occasion,
and the incident is warmly well
coined as one in which she can es-
tablish precedent of the principle
so dear to emancipated woman's
heart-equal pay for equal work,
according to individual and not to
sex.
The general opinion is that Lady
Astor will be able to continue to
dress according to the means Of a
S2,OOO-a-year woman.

CVI-other Peoples Troubles.


Doris was driving her little car
through the business district when
she caught sight of familiar figure
emerging from an office building.
She waved and drew the car along
side the curb.
George Durand. his face alight
with greeting. came abreast and,
reaching in. unlatched the door.
Il cont suppose you mind driving
me homer" he asked. Margaret and
Marcia are off somewhere with
Weston today and father has TO
walk"
How is Marcia" asked Doris, as
she put the car in motion again.
His face clouded.
Pretty good, considering the rot
ten deal she's had. BY CAD, Doris.
/ could strangle that puppy when j
think of it. If it hadn't been for
Gatewood's interference and Mar
garet's plea about the thing getting
out, I'd have had him taken off the
ship by the law and Id have settled
the affair in a mans way"
But it wouldn't have DONE" put
in Doris quickly. Think of the
scandal"
That's what Margaret said" Du-
rand's voice was bitter. Her code
runs something like this: ruin your
life and go to hell, but don't get
talked about while you're doing it
That's not fair. George" pro-
tested Doris quiok ky.
Perhaps not in this AFFAIR. but
Margaret applies the same principle
to everything. If she hadn't been
so afraid of a little talk in the first
place, Marcia would never have been
in this mess.
But il will all come right in the
end" comforted Doris.
"Oh yes" The sarcasm in Durand' s
voice bit. 1T will all come out very
right, Marcia is tied to n yellow
puppy who's only just started on the
downward path to disgrace and he'll
drag her and the rest of us into
the slime, because Marcia's mother
doesn't want people to talk about
a divorce in the family. You women
make me sick"
Don't be bitter. George"
Bitter" he turned an harassed
face toward her.
You're beginning to talk like
Margaret and the rest of her set:
Once / thought you were different.
Doris. You seemed human. Now
you're just a walking doll, doing
and saying what all theRest of the
toy shop is doing and saying"
II am what Stewart made me"
said Doris steadily.
well, as a creator. Stewart is an
awful thing. Tell him to quit trying
to run the universe and leave some
thing to divine guidance"
There was a complete silence after
that until Doris brought her car to
a standstill in front OF Twin Oaks.
Then Durand clambered out, closed
the door and leaned his folded arms
upon it.
Il say, Doris, I'm a beast. For
give me. won't you? This affair has
just shot my patience all TO pieces
and go around with a first-class
grouch to spring on everybody.

the romances of the nationalistic

reached Angora. accompanied by
her husband. a physician and head

chief nationalist leaders, they made
a frantic but fruitless search for

week. whereupon she slipped
through the allied Gordon, cleverly
disguised.
Halide is regarded as the most
important and influential Turkish
nationalist agitator. not excluding
Mustapha K;,mel himself. For years
she has beer tirelessly working
against the allies and preaching
Turkish nationalism. She was the
first Turkish woman to be trained
at the American Roberts College
