ner, in "The Home Sector" the ex-
soldiers magazine conducted by the
former editorial council Of "The
Stars and Stripes" in writing Of the
two buglers to every squad system
Of China's doughty fighters, says:

that one out Of every three men has

HE begins at $3.50 a. m, he being

don't. Noise to them is one Of the

Of existence, the more deafening the

"But don't Jump to conclusions.
The Chinese is no coward. He has
proved again and again in his long
history that he can fight, and he will
so prove again. Even the profes-
sional soldiers are not towards. They
ere only the victims Of rotten sys-

whole army down to the lowest

Her Presence During the Treaty

meetings, which were held behind
closed doors for the most part, and
was unofficially part of the con-
ferences. She was the one person
every one wanted to see, and she
was on the alert for every move
that was planned.
Her Husbands Career
The recognition Of Alice Roose-
welt Longworth as a figure in the
political world throws a new light
upon the career of Nicholas Long
worth.
After two years in the Ohio State
Senate Mr.. Longworth was sent to
Congress in 1902. He has served
from the 1st Ohio District since that
time, with the exception Of term in
the 63d Congress. Last year at the
opening of the session he made a
fight on Representative Mann. He
was outspoken in criticism Of the
proposed organization Of the House
as drafted by the Mann controlled
committee on committees. He pro-
posed to increase the Republican
steering committee.
The feeling against Mr.. Mann ran
high and a split was feared. Mr..
Longworth was mentioned for the
place Of Speaker. He had been for
a long time q member Of the House
Ways and Means Committee and was
valid member Of the committee.
Longworth ''Insurged''
The House was organized With
Mr.. Gillett as Speaker and Mr..
Mondell as floor leader for the Re
publicans. At the close Of the day
when organization Of the House took
place Representative Longworth re-
ferred to the net result of the com
mittee action az "the most complete
triumph for reactionism."
Since the opening Of Congress last
year Mr. Longworth has not made
any moves Of spectacular effect But
his statements at that time and his
moves since have shown that he is
inclined to be among the more pro-
gressive thinkers in the Republican
party. There was the opinion at
the time Of his marriage that he be-
longed pretty much to the Old Guard
of "standpatters."
And Alice Longworth, whatever
her potentialities in politics, Yields
tremendous influence. She cannot
hide her personality, and the Ameri-
can public will always watch its
real fairy princess.

the promise of his early political
life. He has become one of the
most influential men in the House
of Representatives. There is little
chance for the four-hundred-and
some Representatives to shine, and
the man who makes showing must
have the confidence Of his constitu-
ents to the extent that they will send
him back again and again to his
post in Washington. He must prove
bis ability in the cumbersome body
of men of all sorts and conditions
from all parts of the United States

Her Influence Powerful

A few years ago it began to be
whispered that Mrs. Nicholas Long
worth was q person Of great in
fuence in Congressional circles
| She kept out Of the limelight,
but her power was felt. Political
factions were glad to announce that
she was in sympathy with their
movements. Although she never
issued statements, the power Of her
known sentiments in favor Of u
measure was granted to be worth
much with members Of both houses.
During the long struggle for Fed
eral woman suffrage Mrs. Long
worth was known to be for the meas
ure. She watched the progress of
the measure and threw the weight
of her interest" into the balance
for it.
Upon public questions Mrs. Long
worth's answer to persons wanting
to quote her was always that she
was "never quoted" 1t was under
stood that SO long as her husband
was holding public office she would
not make public announcement CT
her own views.
While other women have been "get-
ting into politics" on equal footing
with the men, Alice Roosevelt Long
worth has perhaps been playing
politics on an equally broad scale
and with as telling results as any
Of them. To begin with, she was

AT 1916 Convention


At the Republican convention in
Chicago in 1915 Alice Roosevelt
Longworth was one Of the women
in the audience. There the matter
Of her removing her hat was COM
mented upon. That time it really
was subject Of real Importance,
the men in the convention no doubt
wishing heartily that the other
women in the audience would fol-
low her example.
From her place in the Senate gal
lery she Is usually seen without her
hat. And to return to the irrecon-
cilables in the gallery.
Mrs. Longworth began to appear
in the gallery early last spring.
Whenever it was announced that
one Of the Senators was to attack
the league she was in what has since
become her accustomed place. Usu-
ally Nicholas Longworth was no.
ticed on the floor at the same time
/ that Alice Longworth was in the
gallery.
AS the fight on the league waxed
in strength and became a dailv af
fair Alice Longworth became con-
slant visitor in the gallery. Visit
ors from out Of town, herded into
the ladies gallery, would no doubt
overlook her if she were not pointed
out to them. Those who are in
formed or have the inquisitiveness
to ask who the important women
are in the Senate gallery may go
away with the curiosity of life
time satisfied by one glimpse Of the
fairy princess.
Sits in Front Row
Her place In the gallery is usually
in the front row. She sits bare
, headed, often leaning forward, ell
bows on knees and hands clasped
under her chin. She wears a dark,
short sleeved frock. Mr.. Lodge
makes some particularly telling
thrust at the opposition and she
throws herself back with a little
jerk Of amusement and smiles a COW
cred smile.
Upon the occasion Of Senator
James A. Reeds set speech against
the league of nations, in September,
the Senate galleries and the Senate
itself made the greatest demonstra-
ton the Senate had ever known.
Mrs. Longworth, from her place in
the front row, applauded vigorous
~. She had listened intently to the
entire four hours speech.
Other women in the family gal
lery followed her lead; in the cheer
ing, Mrs. Kenyon, wife of the Sen
ator from Iowa, even leaping to
her feet, the galleries occupants,
almost en- masse, following her
example.

Fascinating Work

Then some one had a bright idea
and promptly put forward the plan
Of gathering them together and put
ting them to work at the making of
wooden toys. They had to face oil
sorts of discouraging remarks about
how it could not be done in Amer
lea, that we were not artistic by ma
ture, that we had not sufficient pa
tience and thousand and one other
objections more or less we'll found
ed. But in spite Of verbal and other
difficulties thrown in their path, they
bravely stuck to their theory, and
they have worked it out in a man
ner that amply proves they are
right.
The old men are fascinated with
their work. With every turn of
their saws and every swish Of their
brushes they prove their whole
souled interest and their keen de-
sire to turn out finished products
which are perfect from the stand
point Of workmanship and arts
tically somewhat worth while. They
may not call it artistic-they prob
ably never have guessed that the
word has anything to do with their
efforts-but the fact remains that
they are plainly accomplishing the
work of artisans, and one does not
need to look twice into their content
ed and pleasant faces to be sure that
they are reaping the stimulus and
joy from their work that we are al
ways led to believe artists find there.
In other words. through the medium
