Permit US to present the De Veyra
family.
The Hon. Jaime c. de Veyra Is the
Resident Commissioner from the Phil
ippine Islands to the United States and
has just been elected to a second tern
of three years. As Resident Commits
sioner he has a seat on the floor ot
the American Congress, the privilege
of taking part in debates, although no
vote.
Commissioner de veyra has an inter
estins wife and four bright Filipino
kiddies. The De veyra family, individ-
ually and collectively, constitute the
best argument as to the tact and capa-
bilities of Filiplnos that the Philippine
Islands have in Washington.
The commissioner is 100 per cent
Filipino, a Visayan, and is one Of the
foremost leaders of the party in power
in the islands. During American occu-
patton he has been successfully gov
ernor of his province, member Of the
Philippine legislature, cabinet mem
ber and executive secretary Of the
islands.
Like many statesmen of the Philip
pines, he was originally a newspaper
man. He was one of the founders of
Ell Nuevo Dla of Cebu, the first Fill
pino paper published advocating Phil
ippine independence. The paper came
under the censorship of General Nc
Intyre, and on the appearance Of the
first number the editors were left In
the singular position of seeing every
prominent article blue penciled.
Mrs. de veyra, like her husband. is
a 'Iive wire" In the Philippines cause.
She is the best known Filipino in
America. She Is an Interesting public
speaker and is constantly giving Illus
trated lectures at women's clubs and
other gatherings. Mrs. de Veyra is a
publicity bureau all in herself and has
put the Philippines on the map, SO far
as the women folk Of Washington con-
gressional circles are concerned.

been much misreple resented in the Unit

I ed States" says Mrs. de Veyra. Il do
not mean to infer we are perfect, for
we are not. My people have most OF
the defects, l suppose, that other hu'
mans have, but at the same time we
are far from the people that many
Americans have been made to believe.
Not only are we Christian people,
but our race has history that we are
not ashamed of. Throughout the Phil
ippIne Islands the people are now
working earnestly to improve them
selves and their conditions 50 they will
be prepared to take over their own af-
fairs. We all love America for giving
US chance TO help ourselves and for
having promised US our independence,
which Is one of the dearest desires of
the entire citizenship Of the islands,"
To American women whose ideas OF
FilipInos have been founded on Sun
day supplement descriptions of wild
tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner
and evident culture have been reve-
lation. She is sought By women's clubs
because of her charming manner as an
impromptu speaker on the subject
nearest her heart--the women OF her
country
At a recent Washington gathering
she gave in perfect English a concise
account of the work of n woman's club
in Manila which supplies milk to the
babies of the poor and trains mothers
to care for their young children. She
told of another woman's club which
has branches all over the Philippine
Islands and which maintains day
nurseries for the e~chldren Of the work
ing women, provides Christmas cheer
for the lepers, the insane and the con
victs, and gathers data to influence leg
islation for the benefit OF Filipino wo:
men and children.
The four little De Veyras, shown in
the picture, having attended the pub
lie schools in Manila, slipped right into
the same grades In the schools Of
Washington. Even little Mary, the
baby of the family, speaks three Ian
native tongue, Spanish
and English.

| The January meeting of the Charles
County Sheep Growers Association
was held in the Town Hall at La Plate
on Saturday afternoon.
President Jas A Gray opened the
meeting with a short address and made
an earnest plea Tor better care of the
sheep now owned and the keeping OF
moro sheep as a particularly profitable
side line in Charles County Agricul-
I ture.
Mr.. II S. Swami, Chairman of tie
I Program Committee, spoke few words
on the objects and aims of the Asso-
lciation. He brought out the point that
the Association desires to be of SER
vice to every sheep grower. but to rem
der that service, it is necessary for the
sheep raisers TO line up solidly behind
the Association. The Committee. in
arranging the series Of meetings being
held, has as its object this winter. the
better handling and grading of wool
and cooperative plan for marketing
it. In New York, Penn. and Ohio.
counties that areproperly grading and
handling and pooling their wool are
realizing from fifteen to Twenty-Five
cents per pound more for their prod
uct.
Mr. Bedell, of the Federal Bureau
Of Animal Industry was then intro
duced and gave a very interesting and
instructive talk on Feeding Ewes Be
fore Landing. He pointed out the
necessity OF proper feeding and atten-
ton to the ewes at this time of the
year, if healthy, profitable lambs are
to be expected. He does not advocate
the purchase OF high priced feeds for
this purpose, but the utilizing of feeds
grown on our farms. He also spoke
strongly upon the necessity of organi-
cation if the greater profits and bene-
fits possible through cooperative mar
keting are to be obtained.
Mr. w. b. 5. Chapman talked on
the necessity for keeping up the fight
for the enforcement of the dog license
law to protect the industry, and also
announced that Mr.. George Steven
son, of the Maryland Tobacco Grow
ers' Association had arranged for
storage place in Baltimore, where the
Associations wool can be shipped,
and seen and purchased by the wooi
BUYERS, instead Of being handled sew
eral times by local buyers aud COM
mission men.
The McDonough Girls Chorus, con
Quoted by Miss Miller, rendered sew
eral beautiful selections and Miss Eu-
nice Burdette entertained with instru- !
pieces.
The attendance at the meeting YVES |
very encouraging 10 the { ommittee in |
charge, being almost double that of 4
the December meeting, and showed q
gain in attendance of actual sheen |
raisers of 10 per cent. Several pres
ent joined the Association, and it is to
be hoped that reYiving interest in a
profitable sheep industry will continue
10 grow and that large, loyal and
strong organization will result, that
may, through its strength and cooper
alton, prove of momentaEy benefit to
sheep raisers of Charles equity.
