J. G. Mohler, secretary Of the Kan

emphatic in the assertion that there
Is no "strike" in Kansas. His view
is upheld by grain men that the fall

to several sources. He said:

by Miss Lima Breesette, secretary
Of the Kansas Industrial Welfare

"In some ndustries-packing

almost a tradition for woman work

convinced the work can be done more
effectively while seated, and with a
great deal less fatigue" according to
Miss Bresette. "But just any kind of
seat won't do" said Miss Bresette.
"The law provides that for women in
certain occupations, including clerks
in retail stores, suitable seats shall
be furnished for their use when not

be considered a suitable seat but

CAN VOTE IF Il THE THIRD

G0SSsUu AhV EuxIUse
The question has been raised
whether young man or young wo
man who has the other qualifica.
tions Of voter and whose twenty.
first birthday will be on November 8
1920, will have a right to vote al
the general election on November 2
Attorney General Hopkins has given
an opinion that such a person will
have right to vote at the general
election on November 2.
The basis Of the opinion is that
under the old common law, man
was considered to have attained his
majority at the beginning Of the
day next preceding his twenty first
birthday. This rule has not been
changed by any statute Of Kansas,
based In turn on another old COM
mon law that for many purposes the
law would disregard fractions Of a
day, and that as a man was of full
age on the last second of the day
next before his twenty first birth
day, the fractions Of the day would
be disregarded and he would be
deemed to be Of full age at the be-
Of the day.

TERRIBLE THINGS TO HAPPEN

GIVES HISS ORDERS


Washington, Oct. 27.--President
Wilson, speaking to pro-Ileague Re.
publicans today at the white house
declared that the "so-called Ameri-
canism we hear so much pratine
about now b spurious and invented
for party purposes only"
Appealing for completion Of the
great moral achievement" which he
said the war represented, the Presi-
dent asserted, that ''the war will
have been fought in vain and our i'm
mense sacrifices thrown away unless
we complete the work we began.
There is only one way to assure peace
and that is by making 1t so danger
Gus to break peace that no other ma
ton will have the audacity to at
tempt It,"
The president warned his hearers
not to be deceived that imperialistic
schemes ended with the defeat of
Germany or "that Germany Is the
only nation that entertained such
schemes to attack the very structure
Of civilization"

Any Fourth Degree member Of the
Grange will be welcome as visitor
at the state meeting, and they are
usually extended the privilege Of the
floor in all discussions.
When the Grange delegates arrive
in Abilene you need expect to meet
just ordinary folks. They will be
dressed up in their best, and will be
wanting to be told where to go and
will ask about the same set of COM
monplace questions that everybody
else asks when they are out on a
convention trip. Nearly everyone
will be from the farm and will know
first hand what the duties Of the
farm are.
There will be no high sounding
theory talk on uplift and that kind
of thing. Abilene will find bunch
of farmers who will give the best
ideas on what is the best thing for
the farmer. They will know from
practical experience and what we
need in present day farming is mix
ture Of the practical knowledge Of
the every day farmer with the af-
fairs and theories of rural life.
This State Grange meeting is for
the very purpose Of the members Of
the Grange-real tillers Of the soil
to discuss rural conditions and resolve
for those things which will TO their
practical minds be the best for them,
and to resolve against those things
which will injure their home life,
their business and community. Hence
we can expect this to be big meet
Ing and the discussion to be inspired
BY experience.

Berlin, Oct. 27.-Hard times in
Germany, marked by high prices and
deprecated money values, unemploy-

have forced readjustments in univer-

which, the newspapers say, will mean
that many professors, lecturers and
private instructors either will be
thrown out Of work or compelled by
low salaries to seek employment in
other countries. A number already
have gone to Mexico and South
America and it is reported scores have
made arrangements to leave. In some
papers it is suggested that perhaps
the hard times are not alone respon-
sible for the attitude the professors
have assumed for it is known they
are keenly sensible of the outrageous
times and their loss Of dignity" un-
