WOMEN WATCH BoLsHEv1Ks.


The women of Iowa and OF Amer
lea should take heed OF the situa-
ton as it has developed In North
Dakota. The bolshevist Is a wolf In
sleeps clothing. He does not come
out in the open and declare, at the
outset, his plans and purposes. By
insidious means he gets a foothold and
not until he has power and can con-
troll does he tear off the larnbskin and
expose his real self. The time to hit
radicalism is when It first raises its
head, and the way to hit 1t Ia to hit 1t
hard. There are many ways to hit the
radical, and one OF the ways 10 to
place in executive and administrative
places people of 100 per cent proven
Amerlcanism. There are politicians
who would even grovel to bolshevists
to acquire additional power.

For sale ny all dealers.

the fight against the federal amendment
in those states of the South that failed to
ratify was, as we all know, led by the
women themselves who dreaded the con-
iitions that might arise under civic rights
imposed by national law.
In any case, that difference of opinion
has existed and it is one of the secrets
that the future holds for us whether the
fear of the suffrag sts- by statute as OPP
posed to those bv federal amendment
will be verified or proven groundless.
We believe that all dire predictions will
be found vain. The vote on final passage
of the measure at Nashville was indica-
tive of the nice balance in opinion that
has existed throughout the South where
a change of few votes in most of the
nonratifying states would have changed
may" to "yea."

We often speak in a vein of the manner
in which some women "primp." But If
we thought more seriously we might
speak less lightly.
"Primpng" is no more nor less than
the raudable effort Of women to make
themselves appear, attractive in the eyes
Of other people.
We men are jealous of the personal ap-
pearance Of our own particular women.
We want them 70 be beautiful, and attrs-

bestow upon them, and we encourage
them to render themselves pleasing to

TILTED BY LOUISIANA SOLDIER

New York, N. Y, Aug. 17-one of
those strange romance which find their
settings in Ellis Island, and one which
surpasses modern fiction, emerged out Of
the hidden record to-day.
Several days after the French family
that figures in it had been admitted TO
the country, Marcelle Viacara, beauti-
tul French girl, II years old came to New
York with her mother, Mime. Jeanne
Viacara, "a years old, and her little
brothers, IS, and Paul H. aboard the
steamship Rochambeau which arrived on
June 9. Although the mother had with
her 5000 francs, the immigration inspec-
tors were fearful that the family might
become public charges, and they were all
ordered TO appear before board of spec
lay inquiry for a further examination. It
was then that Marcelle told story so
plaintive that Il kindled the hearts Of the
veteran inspectors with pity.
Marcelle Viacara, he French immigrant
girl, like Emily Knowles, the British i'm
migrant girl, had loved an American
soldier. She claimed she had been
eourted by Ivan w. Fisk, a soldier Of the
Pershing line. She brought with her let
ters and cabegrams he had sent her after
his return from the war, all warm with
expressions of affection and buoyant with
manly pledges of honor Like Emily
Knowles, this immigrant girl also
brought letters from other members of
Der lovers family. But letters which
followed from the family, although they
breathe&~ affection and sympathy, came
GEAR bTaalting the heart Of Marcelle
Viacara ard her mother, for they told
Of Ivan w. Fisk's marriage to widow
with one child in Pittsburg on April 20.
The father Of Fisk, living at Lake
Charles, La, also wrote sympathetic
letter TO the immigrant girl at Ellis Is
land. But far from lessening the gloom
Of their long confinement at the island
pending appeals which had been sent to
Washington, these communications only
added to the French family's complicated
misery.
