results had come already from the
operation of the law in Preble county

said.

ed States" says Mrs. de Veyra. IT do
not mean to infer we are perfect, for
we are not. My people have most of
the defects, l suppose, that other hui
mans have, but at the same time we
are far from the people that many
Americans have been made to believe.
Not only are we a Christian people,
but our ace has a history that we are
not ashamed of. Throughout the Phil
ippine Islands the people are now
working earnestly to improve them
selves and their conditions so they will
be prepared to take over their own af-
fairs. We all love America for giving
US a chance to help ourselves and for
having promised us our independence,
which is II of the dearest desires of
the entire citizenship of the islandss,'
To American women whose ideas of
Filipinos have been founded on Sun
day supplement descriptions Of wild
tribes, Mrs. de Veyra's gentle manner
and evident culture have been a reve-
lation. She is sought by women's clubs
because of her charming manner as an
impromptu speaker on the subject
nearest her heart-the women Of her
country.
At a recent Washington gathering
she gave in perfect English a concise
account of the work of a woman's club
in Manila which supplies milk to the
babies of the poor and trains mothers
to care for their young children. She
told Of another woman's club which
has branches all over the Philippine
Islands and which maintains day
nurseries for the children of the work.

for the lepers, the insane and the con-

men and children.
The four little De Veyras, shown In

the same grades in the schools of
Washington. Even little Mary, the
baby of the family, speaks three Ian

Permit us to present the De Veyra
family.
The Hon. Jaime G. de Veyra is the
Resident Commissioner from the Phil
ippine Islands to the United States and
has just been elected to a second term
of three years. AS Resident Commits
sioner he has a seat on the floor of
the American Congress, the privilege
of taking part in debates, although no
vote.
Commissioner de Veyra has an inter
esting wife and four bright Filipino
Riddles. The De Veyra family, ihdivid-
ually and collectively, constitute the
best argument as to the tact and capa-
bilities of Filipinos that the Philippine
Islands have in Washington.
The commissioner is a 100 per cent
Filipino, a Visayan, and is one of the
foremost leaders of the party in power
in the islands. During American 0ccu-
patton he has been successfully gov
ernor of his province, member of the
Philippine legislature, cabinet mem
Der and executive secretary Of the
islands.
Like many statesmen Of the Philip
pines, he was originally a newspaper
man. He was one of the founders of
Ell Nuevo Dia of Cebu, the first Fill
Pine paper published advocating Phil
ippine independence. The paper came
under the censorship of General Nc
Intyre, and on the appearance Of the
first number the editors were left in
the singular position of seeing every
prominent article blue penciled.
Mrs. de Veyra, like her husband, is
a 'live wire" in the Philippines cause.
She is the best known Filipino in
America. She is an interesting public
speaker and is constantly giving illus
trated lectures at women's clubs and
other gatherings. Mrs. de Veyra is a
publicity bureau all in herself and has
put the Philippines on the map, so far
as the women folk Of Washington con-
g%ressional circles are concerned.
