end has been made so far as is
known here at this writing.
The feeling has grown in the
party that the last primary was nc
worse than any Of the preceding
ones. and II irregularities were
committed and practiced they were
probably perpetrated on the Mont
eomery and Urosscup sides as
,ruck as they we're on the Morgan
side. None OF these three candi-
dates nor their managers and pol
inE place workers had a monopoly
on virtue, honesty and fairness any
more than any enc of the camps
was responsible for all the irregu-
!arities and illegalities OF The prt-
mary. If such there be, ii is point
ed out that there is a fourth ele-
ment Of responsibility, and that is
the system itself and the legal
rules and laws applying Of it. In
that connection il is timely to state
that there is now a large sentiment
in the state demanding the repeal
of the statewide primary Law.
There is a considerable sentiment
which doesn't want TO go tliat FAR.
but clamors for better laws 10 gov
ern it.
Judge E. F. Morgan's majority
over Mr.. Montgomery stands at
zoos. That is the minimum. rock
bottom figure after all the canvass
Ing boards had gotten through.
All attempts 10 reduce it and wipe
it out entirely have failed. On the
face Of the official returns Judge
Morgan's majority is undeniable,
and there is no proof that has as
YET been presented 10 reflect upon
It's honesty. 1t is untainted as il
stands now. Therefore, it is argu-
ed by loyal Republicans through
out the state that the party should
proclaim that fact, get behind the
regular nominee Of the party resu-
Iarly nominated, and get down TO
the bushes Of electiHg him, the en-
tire state and congressional tick
cts and the presidential electors on
the Harding and Coolidge ticket.
The result Of that feeling in the
party was. the demand for the call

DAUGHTERS DAY
AT WOMAN'S CLUB
Mrs. Dunning Tells Chinese Story and
Exhibits Wonderful Gown-Mu-
sic by Gibson Quintet.

Daughters day was observed by the
Brattleboro Woman S Club yesterday
afternoon, when Mrs. Mary Parker Dun
ming of Boston told in pleasing way
the story of The Country of the Golden
Dragon as the main part of the enter
tainment. Following the story the Glib
son quintet rendered a program of
musical selections, while tea was served
at small tables by daughters of mem
bers dressed in bright colored kimonas.
The decorations of the hail. while simple
added to the attractiveness of the set
ting, japanese laterns being hung over
each electric light and being suspended
over the stage. A large Japanese para
sol also was suspended over the stage,
and two large dragons facing each other
formed the background.
Mrs Clarke C. Fits, vice president
of the club, who presided at the meet
ing, made fitting reference to the OBJ
servance of the day and then intro
duced Mrs Dunning as one who had
travelled in many of the European coun-
tries and therefore was well qualified
to tell the story which was to make up
the greater part of the entertainment.
In Mrs. Dunning's first appearance
she wore the costume of a Chinese
gentlewoman-black trousers and a
grey loose shirtwaist coming nearly to
the knees. The story, which is of Chi
nese life throughout, was told in pleas
ing way and with apparent intimate
knowledge of her subject. When the
part of the story was reached. where
the Chinese girl is about to be married
Mrs. Dunning retired and re-appeared
after short time clad in the typical
wedding gown. Near the end of her
story she retired again, and a beauti-
full festival gown of grand lady of
China of $50 years ago was her next eos
tune. The festival gown was covered
with wonderful embroidery and it was
said it took four generations of men
to complete the gown, on which there
were more than 100 faces. The audienc
was invited to the stage to examine
the gowns and the curios which Mrs
Dunning exhibited during her story.
The quintet which furnished music
was composed of the following: First
mandolin, C. W. Falby; second mando-
lin, Robert Lazelle; tenor mandola
Miss Lucy Cooke; mandoloncello and
director, Ernest Cooke; guitar, j NJ
White.
| In the business Dseeting which pre-
ceded the entertainment $40 was voted
to be used as desired by Mrs Cora G
Leonard of the philanthropic committee
| for the vocational classes. Announce
ment also was made by Mrs c. L
Stickney of the program committe,

EGGS TAKE DROP
AT WHOLESALE
Cold Storage Plants Obliged to Sell at
Heavy Loss-45 to 48 Cents
Dozen

NEW YORK, Feb. 3. = Victims of
the high cost of living were given cause
for revengeful chuckling when mar
ket reports showed that eggs recently
put in cold storage at so cents dozen
tEere being thrown on the market at
prices ranging downward from 40 cents
to II cents, wholesale. In many places
today they were being retailed at so
cents and the slump was reported to
have affected the fresh egg market,
bringing prices down eight cents since
last Friday.
The decrease in cold storage egg
prices was explained as being due to
the fact that the expected European
| demand for eggs did not fully de-
velop.
The present wholesale prices of the
best storage eggs range from AS to as
cents dozen. So-called undergrade
eggs are quoted from 10 to 38 cents Q
