RED CROSS NOTES
Tagging the Tots.

The last convoy of little "repar-
tries" were preparingto leave Eyian in
Switzerland and for France. Already
the train was painting in the station
and Red Cross men hustled them a
bout in a fatherly way, while Red
Cross women gave them sandwiches
and chocolate, There was great babblc
Of childish tongues anl the spirit Of
excitement ran high. Nearly every
voungster wore some new article of
apparel, from a new tam-o-shantcr 70
shiney pair of new and squeaky
shoes. And each one wore little
chain made of small bone links. Some
of the chains were red, some white
and some blue.
Only the French Red Cross officials
knew the significance of these chains.
One of them told me that if the child's
father were living, he was given red
chain; if only his mother was left, a
blue, and if he were wholly orphaned
then he wore white one. I noticed
there were very few red chains .n"re. =
and a good many white ones on these
little travellers going back to France.

Postmaster W. r. Jackson has been
instructed to change Rural Route No.
4 from the Mexico Post Office, to
avoid the bad roads west of Prairie
Lea school house. Instead of the route
turning north at the Sullivan corner,
effective October l, it will turn south
at this corner and continue south and
west to the Stuart corner. Postmas-
ter Jackson stated Monday that this
is the first of several changes con-
templated by the Post Office Depart
ment all Of which are necessary on ac-
count of the bad condition of roads.
He emphasized the fact that the Post
Office Departments aim is to main
tain the rural free delivery routes on
a regular service in the delivery o1
mail to the rural patrons and thai
this cannot be accomplished if the
roads are such that he carriers cannot
travel them under all reasonable con
ditions.

attended the National Retail Clothiers
convention. There is an attendance
of 5000 and besides many entertain
ments the sessions were taken up
with business matters tending toward
lower cost and more efficient service.
every member in that Conven-

the establization of prices and to OBJ
tain lower costs or merchandise from
the manufacturers. 1t is gratifying
to report that the manufacturers were
all willing and anxious to aid in price
reduction. The entire labors of the
convention were bent to this cause and
the retailers agreed to do what they
could be accomplished this purpose.
They urged that merchandise be
sold at the smallest profit margin
possible.

STATE LAW
BARS WOMEN
FROM Ass E:iBLY

JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. 29.-Mis-
souri, women are disqualified by the
constitution of the state from being
elected members of the Missouri leg
islature. This, in effect, is the ruling
Of Attorney General McAllister in in
stances involving the placing of wo-
men on party tickets for seats in the
lower house of thelegislature. To all
inquiries the attorney general refers
to section 4, article of the constitu-
ton, which reads: No person shall
be a member of the house of represen-
at.vcs who shall not have attained the
nge Of a years, who shall not be
male citizen Of the United States, who
snail not have been a qualified voter
If this state two years" etc.
The same provisions apply to men,
tais Of the state senate, except that
hey must be at least 80 years old.
The attorney general pointed out
hat the adoption of the equal sutt'
roga amendment would not alter the
'atug Of women in the least, since it
has nothing to do with the qualiica-
aons of those elected to office in the

agement expects to have the new boil

Most of the trouble lately with the
power has been due to worn out boiler
equipment. With the exception of
the accident Sunday the company has
mad to contend with defective boilers
and this has made their service most
unsatisfactory.
With the new boilers attached ac-

Word was received from the Public

cordance with the Interstate Com
