In tho month of June, 1920, the VIII

a letter which was self-explanatory, as
follows:
Mr.. Willard s. Morse has for some
years been compiling Bibliouraphy Of
Howard Pyle, which il now completed.
II contains an exhaustive list and de-
seription Of all of Mr.. pylc's books and
pictures.
IL IL believed that no more fitting
memorial 70 Mr.. Pyle aud his work M
40 artist and author could be devised. This
society, therefore, desires ~ publish the
BibIioprapby and tD present copy Of Il
to each of the principal libraries IN the
United States. IL will be well printed
with preface by Maxfield Parrish, and
will be illustrated with a portrait Of Mr.
Pyle and 20 of bis pm and ink drawings.
IL will cost $500 to do this This sum
must be raised by private subscription, AZ

26.500,O0O WOMEN CAN
VOTE NEXT ELECTION
This Number Does Not Include q
Million or More Aliens
Ineligible.
ny Associated pras. To Evory Fv-ninz


Washington. Sept 2o--Figurea com
piled by the Census Bureau and other
government departments indicate that
the number Of women IN the United
States over 81 years Of age is 2s. .035. 900,
Of whom approximately 26,5OO, 900 are
eligible to vote in the November election.
This estimate makes liberal allowance
for alien women, American women mar
ricd 90 aliens and Others ineligible.
Exact figures are not available on the
number Of women over 81 but barred
from voting through various reasons.
Census Bureau officials believe, however,
that this year at least 900, 600 Of the
5,250000 foreign-born women in the
United States will not yet have become
naturalized. In addition there were in
1910, according TO the census. about
60, 600 Indian women, most of whom were
living on reservations; S,607 Chinese and
Japanese women ineligible 10 vote com
paratIvely small number of American
women married to aliens and barned from
voting for that reason and larger number
deprived OF the ballot under State statutes
IN harmony with constitutional provisions.
The total of these ineligiblcs was esti-
mated at about SOC, 900.
American women married to aliens are
not eligible to vote, the Department of
Justice has held, but foreign-born women
married TO American citizens or whose
fathers have become American citizens
are entitled to the ballot without naturafi-
cation proceedings.
The number of eligible male voters in
the United States tins year has not been
determined. Based on an estimated popu-
lation of l05.000, 900, however the Census
Bureau figured that there are now -, ,S07-
600 men in the United States over 2l
years of age, of whom probably 81 500, 900
would be entitled to vote in November.

A AvIILAGE WITHOUT AN OLD MAID.
Sounds Like Fairy Tale-Buf Isn't.

A village without an old maid sounds
somewhat like fairy tale, but several
such places exist down below the Mason
and Dixon line.
''All the women get married in the
mill villages of South Carolina, and
at an early age" says Y. w. c. A. in
dustrial secretary stationed at Green
vile, where she works among the girls
In thirteen mills.
Perhaps economic independence has
something TO do with it, as marriage
Is not looked upon by the girls as a meal
ticket, but as a fifty-ffty proposition.
The wIves do not give up their jobs but
keep right on working.
That the textile industry in South
Carolina absorbs large number of women
as well as men workers is not surprising
considering the fact that there are as
many as I52 mills in 20 counties. With
the population OF the state estimated at
$50, ,015 people, 62,904 are mill workers,
and I90, ,26S are dependent on mill pay.
The valuation of the mills is IS million
and the weekly pay roll is one million.

THE LAUGHING PRAYER.

The sorry prayers go up to God
Day after weary day,
They whimper through the eternal blue
And down the Milky Wav.
Deaf TO the music of the starts,
The children of desire,
Beggars before the Throne of God,
They wait for God to tire.
The proletariat of Heaven
SwarIned In the golden street
One day when Michael's host came bv
Up to the Judgment Seat.
Above the heavenly mansions
Bright, streaming banners flowed,
While cherubim and sefaphim
Were crowding in the road
And then little, laughing prayer
Came running from the sky,
Along the golden cutters where
The sorry prayers went by.
1t had no fear of anything,
But in that holy place
1t found the very Throne of God
And smiled up in His face.
Then Michael waited in the road,
For Michael understood,
While God looked on the laughing prayer
And found 1t sweet and good.
So God was comforted He said:
There still is hope for men.
One man prays happily" And so
He turned TO care again.

II LONDON, December 1s.-That the
exchange situation is the chief OBJ
stacle to Americas capture Of the
European automobile market 10 the
view of p. 8. Steenstrup, general
manager Of the General Motors Com
pean automobile situation.
I look for no material decrease IN
automobile prices" he said. Despite
the present slump. with thousands of
workers thrown out Of work and the
attendant loss Of production. the
shortage OF supplies Of automobiles is
such that the rule Of supply and de.
mand is bound to hold UP prices not
only in the United States. but in Eu-
rope as well.
= "As to the European import tax re-
strictions on American cars, there
seems little hope they will be lower.
ed, but I'm not pessimistic about
them. as I believe that in competition
with European firms we can over.
come the handicap with our superior
efficiency, which gives US not only
cheaper production, but superior vol
une and quality.
THE real barrier is the exchange
situation, which enhances the value
of our cars tremendously. And
much hope of relief soon in
this. quarter. 1 notice that Ford re-
Gently sent British prices tumbling
by q characteristic cut. but his per-
manent results in this are likely to be
much as those he obtained with his
peace ship"
Steenstrup is leaving London in
few days to study the American auto
mobile import situation in France.
