MANY PROBLEMS
BEFORE WOMEN
VOTERS LEAGUE

Chicago, Dec. 1.-Why men do not
vote, what's wrong with the ballot and
how politics handles electoral machin-
ery-these are some of the problems
that women voters have set to look
into here December 1 to 3. At this
time the National League of Women
Voters will hold it's first institute in
efficiency in government in Chicago.
Its purpose" explains Miss Belle
Sherwin OF Cleveland. who is in
charge. SIS an expansion OF the poll
Ftical education for women begun in
our citizenship schools. We started
with a study OF government. the con-
stitution and the laws. and are going
forward to consider much more care
fully what political parties are doing
with the institutions We are studying.
"If the league is a university for
adult political education, ! might say
its citizenship schools present the
freshmen course and this institute Is a
second years course"
The program of the league is to
study government as it is, government
asst is %practiced under the influence
of party organizations, and govern
ment as it should. be to get the par
~ticipation Of more people in it and
more efficient administration, Miss
sherwin added.
ut has before IT. she said. two
| questions: what will make government,
more truly representative n what
will make its operations more efficient
in political units of every size?
This institute will cover only the
first question. It will devote itself
therefore to a study of the whole vot'
ing system.
1--WE are not planning a debate, but
a school with one speaker at each SEES
sion.
1--WE want to get over a medium o,
education which is non-academic an6
as far as possible a substitute for ac-
! tual experience. We want to give
women what you might call political
sophistication."

Camp Roosevelt
Popular Headquarters

The nation wide popularity Of
Camp Roosevelt, the boys West
Point at Muskegon, Michigan, is rap
idly growing with the approach of
summer and the close of school. Boys
everywhere are making plans to take
advantage of the wonderful summer
outing on the shores of Lake Michi-
gan, made possible by the U. S. War
Department, the Chicago Board of
Education, and the patriotic and
generous men who make up the
Camp Roosevelt Association. Incl
dent to this rush of enrollments,
comes an important announcement
from Captain F. L. Beals, U. S. A.,
Camp Commandant, to the boys
throughout the county.
sit is necessary that we set
limit to the capacity of Camp Roos-
evelt. In these days of the high cost
of living the fee of $1,000 for two
weeks per cadet, together with the
splendid training, outdoor life, the
wholesome food and new experiences,
make direct appeal to the parents
and we have had many hundreds of
inquiries from fathers and mothers
at our Chicago headquarters, Room
4O3 $50 South Clark street. This
leads me to believe that we shall
reach our capacity limits very soon.
I urge all boys, Therefore, who desire
to attend Camp Roosevelt this sum
mer, to send in their applications
Immediately. Further delay may
close the door of opportunity"
Camp Roosevelt is national
camp for boys Of good character
from twelve years of age up. The
older boys receive complete Scout

officers and non commissioned Of
ficers of the regular service. The
splendid spirit of democracy and
forces for Americanization which
characterize the camp throughout
has drawn the attention of many
public spirited men and patriotic or
CARNATIONS.
The summer school, conducted on
the same standard as the Chicago
public summer schools, by Chicago
teachers, is an especially attractive
feature for the boy who wishes to
advance in his school studies. Cred
its obtained in the summer school
are recognized by school principals
everywhere. The introduction of
eighth grade subjects is a welcome
bit of news to the boys in grammar
school.
Entry may be made for one or
more periods. Camp opens on July
3rd.

FROM THE PETALS OF ROSES
Most Highly-Prized Scent Is Volatile
Oil, the Product of the Queen
of Flowers.

Altar of roses, or otto of roses, is
a volatile oil of the petals of some
species of rose. 1t is a nearly color
less or light yellow crystalline solid
at temperatures below so degrees Fab
renheit, liquefying little above that
temperature. 1t is imported from the
East, where, in Syria, Persia, India,
as well as in Turkey and Bulgaria,
roses are cultivated to considerable
extent for the altar. To procure the
altar the rose petals usually are dis
titled with about twice their weight
of water, and the distillate is exposed
to the cool night air in open vessels
from which the thin film of altar is
skinned with a feather in the morn.
ing. Altar is said to have been OBJ.
tanned first by an accidental distil
lation, rose petals having been ex
posed with water to the heat of the
sun, and to have been found floating
on the surface of the water. This
method still is used in India. The
principal use of altar of roses is IL
perfume. Olive oil, colored by al
kanet, and scented by few drops Of
altar, very generally is sold under the
name of altar of roses. Medicines &C
casionally are perfumed by altar o.
roses.
