URGES COOPERATION
OF ALL THE GUIDES

Every guide in Maine is urged by
George c. Orr. president of the Maine
Sportsmen's Fish and Game Associa-
ton, to attend the coming meeting on
Jan. Fl at Augusta and perfect an or.
ganization Of their numbers, assur-
ing them that they will find hearty
cooperation on the part of the
sportsmen to further their interests.
You guides can be more highly
priced among the employing sports
men if you are solidly associated for
the best interests of the sports, the
State and the game. You can get a
better understanding Of kindred in
terests if you meet together at least
once a year and talk it all over with
view to establishing a downright
publics spirited association that seeks
to make a guide q better man than
the average sportsman, in a State
that should be better game State,
for the good Of the game that is sadly
in need of friends such as you guides.
May we not see delegations of guides
from each game region at Augusta
from KeZar Lake to the New Bruns-
wick border? 1t is a business prop
osition. Look about you and note the

Why rob fine womanhood
OF all its hopes

Why strangle hope
Upon the bier of maidenhoodo
Does Youth hold all?

Beyond mere blushing beauty
What reason to exist
These dawns and dusks away?
Why shall we drag through
Each succeeding day

When Youth is gone:
Why suffer life's least torment--

For building toward the ultimate.

A wealth of curls
There lies capacity
To profit by our falls
And disappointment

List into the discards

But some will rise from falls
On rocks and debris

which was usually bought in Lon

Queen Mary is, perhaps, the only

w woman's brain and woman's
world, has greatly expanded
during the past two decades. The
most indifferent observer knows tina,
great opportunities have come to
woman IN recent years, and that
woman has developed to accept
b them. Everyone recognizes, too, that
styles" have changed since the days
of hoops and basques and bustles.
But does the modern woman real
ize the fact that she cannot wear
the garment of a generation ago
because of her changed figure?
An interesting proof of this, was
presented in Chicago last Monday
night in connection with the wom-
an suffrage victory convention.
For months it had been advertised
that the history of suffrage would
be told by women in costume from
the various states of the union. All
anticipation, an audience of many
hundreds assembled in the Gold
Room of the Congress hotel to. wit
ness the pageant, Then and Now"
At one end of the large assembly
room, was . richly carpeted mar
bic stairway, balustraded with gold,
and leading up to a platform hung
with velvet draperies.
The trumpet sounded. From be-
hind the rich hangings, stepped a
herald, bearing banner of yellow
the suffrage color-boldly. telling in
letters of black that in 1888 school
suffrage for widows was granted in
Kentucky. The orchestra struck
up an air of that date, then down
the steps came vision. The lights
in the room were softened and a
spot light thrown on the stairs.
A sweet girl face, head, mass of
golden curls, dress quaint old
gown of stiff pink silk with puffed
sleeves and sweeping skirts came
slowly down the steps. A daguerro-
type come to life! H.
The next date was 1861 when
school suffrage was granted Kansas.
Graceful, amazing hoops were worn
by a maiden representing that year.
The gown was lavender silk adorned
with large bows, and shawl COM
pleted the costume.
So on and on they came. Getting
down to more recent years, the
musical airs became familiar and
awakened memories. Women whose
faces no longer bear the freshness
OF youth, tossed their heads and
smiled, and even hummed along
audibly with the orchestra when
Little Annie Rooney" waited light
ly across the room. Il wore such
dress once,' said some. Il remem-
Der a dress of mothers like thai"
came from the more youthful. More
voices were heard for the l890-lS93
group when after the Bali was
played. and still more on "A Hot

has been seen on many occasions es-
corting a prominent business wo-
man. At social affairs of various
kinds they are together, and he

possible that they are not but then
again, it is also possible that they
are. The young woman has very

plete without the Gibson girl. In
1900 she appeared wearing an Irish
point lace gown, fashioned with
train and Eton jacket, carrying a
parasol and holding her head high
as if proud of the black picture hat
ard enormous plume.
Time moves on and so did the
pageant, down to 1917, when full suf-
frage was granted to seven states
and primary suffrage to one. Over
There" was the chosen martial tune.
With firm step, in perfect rhythm
and shoulder to shoulder, marched
girls wearing the over seas uniforms
of nurses, Y. w. c. A. workers, mo-
tor corps aides and canteen assis-
tants.
The federal amendment in 1919
led up to the grand finale, represent
ed by Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait as
Freedom" Not in costume did
Mrs. Gait appear. She, herself,
merely stepped forth, an occurrence
at any time sufficient to impel en-
thusiasm, but in the role of Free
DOM" it was the signal for a loud
demonstration of enthusiasm and
joy in victory.
But where were the women from
the different states, announced to
appear as characters in tho
pageants? No one had seen them,
except toward the very end of the
number. Those who had come
gracefully down the stairway were
girls in their teens and not suffrag-
lists from the states. Why the
change in plan' Wouldn't suffrag-
lists have been more appropriate?
More appropriate, yes. But the
woman of 1920 cannot wear the
dress of the woman of 1888, nor of
1861, 1883 or even 1896. The mod
ern woman is too big! She has ex-
panded. The wasp waist and undu-
lating figure are no more.
1t was only with some difficulty
that girls could be found in Chicago
who were slender enough to gown
themselves in the garments of their
grandmother's day. Some dress
makers could tell the tale of ripped
seams and an allowance of a few
centimeters to make breathing more
comfortable for the young misses
who wore the historic and pictures
que costumes OF yore. Beautiful
they were. Many came from famous
designers and costumers of Paris,
New York and Rome. Wedding
gowns of famous old Chicago fami-
lies were carefully lifted from the
chests where stored, freshened for
the occasion and again replaced in
their dust-proof resting places
there to await, not another celebra-
ton of suffrage, for that cannot be-
but some other brilliant occasion.
when justice, sentiment, and history
blend into glorious present.

some among us who have adopted
this article as their especial hobby.
1t is necessary, however, that she
who wishes to carry fan must do

the manner in which to use it, may
easily ruin the most perfect costume.
The graces of this pretty instrument
are many and they must be known
to make it an asset to anyone. Let
Gabby quote for you the following
lines in regard to this modish little
machine:
"The huttering of the fan is the
last, and, indeed, the masterpiece of
the whole exercise. There is an in.
finite variety of motions to be made
use of; there is the angry hutter,
the modest futter, the timorous
fiutter, the confused flutter, the
merry futter, and the amorous
Autter. Not to be tedious, there is
scarce any emotion in the mind
which does not produce a suitable
agitation in the fan; insomuch,
that if only see the fan of a dis
ciplined lady, l know very well
whether she laughs, frowns, or

angry, that it would have been

Then, one might wish he was

Mrs. Joseph Cudahy in her visit

pleasant under these conditions.
Those who are going, however,
intend to sail forth with great hopes
in their hearts that things will have

but those who have thought the
matter over more seriously say
things cannot ease by summer.
