Kansas legislators meet in special
session this afternoon to adopt the
most important Industrial laws en-
acted in this country. Nationwide
interest surrounds the action OF the
special session which will seek to de-
fine the limit to which organized labor
may go in forcing its demands. Nc
session of a legislature in this state
ever attracted more general attention..
Lobby interests for labor will be
brought here from other states and
the attitude of solons today indicated
a bitter fight over passage of certain
provisions of the industrial court bill.
Governor Aliens call for a special
session of the legislature-the second
in seven months-was given that KAN
sas might pioneer in meeting indus-
trial problems which always worked
to the hardship and suffering of the
innocent public. The governors pro-
gram before the special session is for
enactment of laws which will clearly
define the rights of labor and capital
and will give to the nation a determine
alton as to the rights of labor leaders
to direct a strike. Attempt will also
be made under provisions of the orig
inal court bill, to determine the right
Of a court or commission to fix a wage
for labor.
Labor Is Bitter.
nation Will bitterly oppose every at
tempt of the legislature to pass a law
which they declare denies to a man
the right to quit his job. The purpose
of the proposed law. tho, is to break
up organized efforts to direct strikes
and lock-outs and to punish by fine
and imprisonment persons who direct
such a strike.
Party lines are not expected to be
drawn in the fight over passage OF
the dominant measures in the gov
ernor's program. There is much un-
course which the session may take In
enacting new laws.
Every phase of the labor probler7.

What's In a Name
AN ME
(Copyright)

This quaint but charming and I'M
deniably popular name has no etymolo-
gical right to existence. Though 1t
signifies grace and is of course closely
related to Anne and Anna, 1t has no
scientific excuse for being. 1t seems
rather to be natural endearment ris-
ing out of the chill dignity of Anne.
1t is barely possible that Annie may
have come To use by a more direct
route than colloquialism. A favorite
name in earle Gaelic times was Anna
signifying joy. The pronunciation OF
this name is very similar to Annie.
In England, however, there has arisen
a fashion of christening Annie, prob
ably from some confusion as to the
spelling of Ann or Anne.
With the exception of Anna, the
quaint name of Annie is the most
popular Of all forms in this country.
Anne is piquant and Anna slightly for
Bidding, but Annie appeals to the popu-
lar taste and Yankee love of endear-
ment.
Amber is Armies talismanic stone.
It will bring her health and guard her
from disease. Tuesday is her lucky
day and her lucky number.

Verify, verify, my Daughter. an in
teresting man is the noblest work Of
Woman-yea of many women.
For, what man knoweth any of the
graces of life or acquireth the subtili-
ties of love-making until some woman
hath instructed him therein?
And what mans sentimental educa-
ton is finished" until he hath loved
and been loved by several women?
Yet, alas, what profit hath a woman
Of all her labors? For, 10, every woman
spendeth her days in the training of
husbands for OTHER women! And
there is NO gratitude in men,
Behold, the moment one damsel hath
taught callow youth how to part his
hair, and to speak when he is spoken
to, he straightway hasteneth off to i'm
press another damsel with his knowl-
edge and his "aplOmb."
One damsel teacheth a man the gen
tie art Of fiirtation-and the moment
he hath acquired the rudiments there
Of, he is upon his way, seeking to
practice them upon another damsel.
One damsel leadeth him to the en-
chanting spot upon the beach, or the
romantic corner Of the garden-and,
upon the next evening he tenderly
leadeth another damsel thereto.
One damsel polisheth his finger
nails-and straightway he departeth
to hold another damsels hands.
One woman pOlisheth his manners
and instructeth him in the art of order
ing dinner r and another woman
receiveth the invitations to his dinner
parties.
One woman teacheth him that he
possesseth a HEART-and before she
hath half-finished. he is off offering his
heart to another woman.
One woman spendeth ten years in
making a man of him-and another
woman taketh ten minutes to make a
fool of him.
One wife saveth his pennies-and
the next wife spendeth his dollars.
Verify, verify, all the days of hel
life, every woman runneth a charity
bureau" for the benefit of OTHER
women.
For, alas. whatsoever woman lead
eth a man in the way he should go, Il
is always the NEXT woman" who
profiteth by her good works.
And no woman repeateth the reward
Of her own labors, but every woman
garnereth the fruit of some other wo
mans labors.
For this is her consolation: thai
each woman, in her time, is Next"
And, have I not many times sale
unto thee, that a mans heart is like
unto public telephone upon Saturday
afternoon. or a barber shop upon Sun
day morning, wherein the cry is Away.
NEXT?
Yet, l charge thee, let no woman
hope to receive THANKS, from those
men, whom she hath rescued from
darkness, and callowness!
For. verify. verify. every man fancy
eth himself Perfect Work of Nature
and believeth that the Lord made hin
as he is.

can really love
I am lover Of children and l feel
as If | would be happy with a sweet
little baby and husband that could
love. This man seems to love me,
but he doesn't ever ask to take me
any place. He is very stingy with his
money. I have always had plenty.
Please tell me what to do. marry
this man or wait and see if | will
ever find anyone that will just suit
me? I think more of this man than
any l have ever gone with, but l dc
