Will Outnumber Males in Five States If Suffrage Is
 Ratified

WASHINGTON, April S.-Ballots cast hy women in the coming presr- dential election will fall shorf of the potential mems vote by over ? 300 900 provided the suffrage amendment is tatlfled and state registration laws enacted iii time to permit women all over the country to participate. ac. cordlng a estimates by the national woman's party.
 With the 1910 census as a basis. tho woman's party estimates the number. Of men eligible to vote at 29,577 .69O and the possible woman voters at 26. SS9,566. In 1916, however, the actual vote cast for all various presidential candidates was 1S,52S,743. emitting ballots thrown out for cause. which leaves over 11,O00,0OO possible votes unregistered. If as large a propor- ton of the men voters remain indif- ferent in the coming election. women political leaders here say that the eagerness of women to exercise their newly acquired privilege may more than offset the disparity in numbers between the sexes.
 In five of the states. moreover. women of voting age outnumber the men. Massachusetts has the greatest preponderance of women voters" with 5S,264 more women than men, North Carolina is next with a women's mai ority Of 15,2SS and South Carolina with 1O,307 is third.

How City Laws Are Taught t o
 Young America

A city where every school child knows the city's laws is Paterson. \ J. This was accomplished by the high schools civic classes. in con. junction with the Chamber of Com mcrce and tEe Wcman's Club. The pupils rewrnte the laws in simple laneuaee. eliminating all the legal phrases and long words. The laws covered subjects such as sanitation s2tety, police. traffic. and fire reg ulations. These laws We're put into pamphlet form and distributed to every school child in Paterson.
 In many nf the large cities. includ. ing New York and Cleveland. the classes visit places of civic interest such as attending city council meet ings, the juvenile court. and the city hall. and in this manner are being taught civics much more effectively than by text book.
 Madison, Wis, has a club called Little Men Of the Sixth Ward" or ganized for the purpose of interest ing the boys in civic affairs. and through them arousing the interest of the parents in the improvement of the city.

Florence Macbeth Is Attraction For Local Society

AFTER 4 STRENUOUS week the
 appearance Of Florence Macbeth, the
 colOratura soprano Of the Chicago Op-
 era will be delightful happening.
 Added to the enjoyment of the less oc-
 cupied period is that of listening to
 Miss Macbeth, whose rapid rise on the
 concert and opera stage was gained
 because of merit. She will be present
 ed tomorrow evening at the Grand
 theatre.
 Miss Macbeth, an American girl Of unusual charm, has been most sue cessfUl in ner country wide tours. She has had enthusiastic praise from the critics and the almost instant approval of the music lovers. There is no af-
 fectation in her work, it is well done
 and with precision but without man
 nerisms. Her appearance is most fit
 ting climax to the season offered by the Musical Events club, a program
 which will leave pleasant memory to
 add its weight to those left by the art IStS Wno nave DeeH pISSeHleu edlI4el 1 in the season.
 A word of congratulation to those who have made the season success, and q word of appreciation to those who have supported the venture is not | amiss here. For the coming season. , the definite announcement to be made 1 later-many things are in prospect ! which promise to be as enjoyable at i least as the events of this year. The district has made remarkable strides i! in it's patronage of music in single year and doubtless the future holds
 much in the way of making for per manency these things which have been ! experimental thus far.

 Complete Equality
 To promote establishment of com plete equality of women ana men in the family, society and state; develop capacity of women for responsibilities of citizens, and improve the lot of wo- men and children. is the object propOs- ed by Danish women.

CHOOSE THIN GLASS TO
 WITHSTAND HEAT

The thinnest glass beaker or container should be chosen if hot fluids are to be poured into it. Glass is poor con ductor of heat and when hot fluid is poured into a thick glass, the inner layer of the glass will be at a much higher temperature than the outer ones. These outer layers are burst by the eXpension of the inner ones.
 If the glass containers are heated slightly or filled while standing in hot water, they will not break.

JAPANESE LEGENDS OF
 CHRYSANTHEMUMS

Many myths have been woven about the national flower of Japan. the chry- santhemum. Kiku Is the Japanese name for it.
 "Elixir of Life"
 One old legend tells about Chinese king who learned that in an island far east of his kingdom beautiful flower grew which yielded the "elixir of life" But only the pure-hearted could touch it. otherwise it would lose its marve- lous qualities. This prevented the king and his court from attempting to find the rare plant.
 Found by Pure of Heart
 The king followed the suggestion of one of his sages and sent 300 youths and maidens in search of the unknown island. The quest for the ihrysanthe- mum which was to bring perpetual youth to the king and his court, was led by the old sage. They founu the island. and the wise man set up a kingdom there with himself as king and for many centuries all lived nap . oily and well. The island was Japan.
