IN WOMAN'S MIND

The League Of Women Voters in this state is do
ing a most useful service in putting candidates
congress and for the legislature record on some
very important things
Four questions have been asked Of the candidates
for the national congress, not the usual questions
which are put to candidates for these honors
The want to know whether senator's and
congressman favor this country taking the lead in
international agreement prevent war. They
want to know whether they will support the work
of departments devoted to and protection
of homes and children whether they are ready to
enlist a upon nliteracy lastly about their
stand on the primary.
Two OF the questions deal directly with
home, with motherhood with children and with the
future OF the
One of the others goes into the realm of inter-
national politics but for the single PURPOSE of
abolishing war its sorrows and its terrific toll
in human life The other S a test of faith in the
people rule themselves
The League has just sent out its answers to these
questions and it is significant that Miss OKeefe the
woman candidate for congress from this district.
is heartily in favor of the womans program.
Her opponent qualities one answer and avoids the
most important one. which deals with the direct
primary and the power of the people to govern
themselves. That says Mr.. Hickey. is a purely
state matter on which he expresses no opinion.
Those who would destroy. instead of strengthen
the primary from the old day and age when
political nominations were passed by party boss
es meeting in back rooms and endeavoring to
how little could be obtained for the people and how
much could be taken away from them.
Those who the primary have faith in the
wisdom and the honesty of the great mass of the
citizenship, believe that the more power that is
placed in the hands Of the voter the respon-
sive government Will become the wishes Of the
majority and the greater the protection given to
the citizen in his rights to have the kind of gov
ernment he desires
1t is a fundamental test which these women
applying to candidates. which search the souls
and purposes OF candidates.
Women in politics have the disconcertng habit or
gong after essentials and cutting out the old trap
rings and camofage under which the servants OF
privilege disguised themselves.
The answers they received from. this district
might well be a guide to those who want real
presentation and who prefer to have servants in
office with mandate direct from the people, rather
than from few alleged leaders.

REFUTES DUBLIN STORY
Sept. Il, 1922.
To the Editor OF The News-Times.
Dear Sir:
An article appeared IN the Sun
day edition OF the News-Times deal
ing with DubIin's slums. and IN part
stating that Dublin's slums are the
worst in the world These state
ments are as untrue and unjust as
they are uncelled for.
I lived in Dublin for FIVE years
and had an opportunity Of becom-
ing acquainted with every phase Of
life IN that city. I a+~e am &C
quainted with the mode OF life OF
the poorer class in various other
European cities and also a good
many American cities and I failed
20 find conditions any worse in Dub
lin than those which prevail IN any
other city OF is size either in Europe
or America
In this a-ticle tho slums Of Dub
lin are depicted as the lowest pos
sible plane OF human degradation.
From my actual knowledge Of the
real situation this is an absolute lie.
On the contrary those people al
though poor DO not complacently &C
cept their LOT. but are powerless to
help themselves in the face OF enor-
nous taxation foisted on them by
an alien government.
Yours Truly

BETTER HOMES

In the nation wide drive for Better Homes
phasLs is being laid upon the statement that mo
man ever fought for boarding house" and an ap-
peal for more building and better buildings IS be-
ing made on patriotic grounds.
AS far as America IS concerned no war has ever
been fought for the protection of ownership Of
homes Every war has had behind it the ideal Of
a home. not the possessive instinct
In current number OF a popular magazine.
Herbert Hoover. secretary OF commerce makes this
statement
There Is no incentive TO thrift like the owner
ship of property. The who owns his own home
has happy sense OF security. He Will invest his
hard-earned savings TO improve the house he owns.
He will develop 1t and defend IT.
A very similar from Vice President
Coolidge who pays this tribute the home instinct:
society rests on the home. It is the foundation
OF our institutions Around are gathered all the
cherished memories OF childhood. the accomplish
ments Of maturity and the consolation Of age. So
long as PEOPLE hold the home sacred. they will be
in the possession of character which it will be
impossible 70 destroy"
There is every reason why every should de-
sire 10 own his own home and become an estao-
ushed part OF some community but that reason has
no relation whatever his standard of citizenship
or his patriotic emotions.
The men who sacrificed in the last war were
rot home owners. 1t is quite likely that large
nercentare held no deeds TO lands 10 houses and
had no thought of any inheritance that might come
20 them
They did have very real reverence for the
American ideal OF home and all that it means and
knew that this ideal does not rest upon any title
20 its ownership.
The home, whether ct be the rented room in a
tenement or a magnificent country place IN some
exclusive suburb Ia. always meant the place where
love and contentneut may be pursued without let
o- bfndrance from some autocratic power. It has
meant the citadel Of liberty and OF freedom. the
starting point Tor opportunity.
Men Of America have never fought TO protect
properly They have always been ready 20 defend
the fundamental ideals Of the nation

In the old Western days when the
Indian was wild
And his thoughts fondly turned
upon war.
The campfire freely with branches
was piled
And he danced for a fortnight or
more.
He howled as he danced. till the
echoes awoke
The granite walled canyon along.
And the startled coyotes grew tune
full and broke
Into what Cto the fancy was song.
The mugic that softens the savage
breast
Had nothing to do with the
That awakened the owls in. the tur-
bulent West
For weeks upon hideous weeks
Il wasn't the dancing that stirred
the bis buck
To a war or an emigrant raid

These several must come TO all;
The beauty of the morning sun,
The glory OF a task well done.
The laughter OF a friendly call

Though rich or poor, or dull or

and charges him no 1.-THE or fee.
And there is glory in each task
Which by the humblest Is possess

The pride Of having done his best,

FRIENDS

AAAAAA-ND9
We toll and struggle day by day 70
seek some distant goal afar
And dream that when it's gained
We'll stay where all it's Joys and
glories are
And be content, Il seems to be the
elimination Of our dreams
Until we've won and then we see
that further on more brightly
beams
The sun Of happiness and then dis
satisfied we start once more
And work and labor on again as
eagerly as e'er before.
No heart is ever satisfied 10 quit be-
cause a goal is won
For e'er they've gained II they have
SIZED a brighter vision farther on
And We but rest a breathing space
and with new courage face the
fight
And struggle hard to hold our place
and keep another goal in sight
And in the end when toll is Ger and
age reluctantly descends
We find that what we cherish more
than all the rest is loving friends.
Tho we may strive for gold and
fame and see our name upon the
scroll
Among the winners in the game of
life the balm that soothes our soul
Far more than all the pomp and
show that comes to crown our
brief success
The friends that we have come TO
know bring forth the greatest
happiness
And so it ,sn't just the goal we
seek. it's winning in the strife
And friends We meet that soothe the
soul along our little path of life.

No place, nor power. nor pomp nor
skill,
Nor silver nor the yellow gold,
The beauty Of the sun can hold.
TIE toiler's cottage it will fill.
Night brings a tap upon the door.
A friend has come with words Of
cheer,
The long days worries disappear.
The rich mans friend can do no

Vainly we struggle while we live,
Seeking some fancied joys afar,
While at our hand earth's trea
sures are.
Which life to all OF Us would give.

The note that aroused his wild
frenzy was struck
BY the horrible noise that he made
Years passed. and the music of civil
lied man
Came to soothe the rude savage's
soul
And as it grew prevalent most Of
his clan
Were content with a placider role.
The mandolin's tinkling in paleface
canoes.
The strum Of the tuneful guitar
And the lulling harmonica did not
enthuse
The chief TO longing for war.
But when they played jazz tunes
where Indians could hear
A menace came into his gaze.
And the red light OF battle began to
appear
As Il did IN the warwhcoping days
So state legislatures have found
that it's wise
To ban every jazzy refrain.
Lest the redskins who hear Il viii
swiftly arise
And massacre white folks again.

MUSGoGEE, Okla. Dec. 25.-The election as president of the South western baseball league of Ed Moll. of Milwaukee. formerly secretary of the Milwaukee club of the American association and for eight years a member of the National Board of Ar bitration of organized baseball. is as- sured, it was said today.
 Moli will succeed Ensley Barbour, of Tulsa, who expressed the belief that when the league holds its next annual meeting at Independence, Kans.. on January 5. Moll will be the only man proposed for the pres idency.
 Club owners of the league already have planned that Moll shall assume those of secretary and treasurer, Barbour said. He is to open headquar- ters in Tulsa and devote his time exclusively to the leagues affairs.
 President Barbour, who had served two years as head of the organiza tion, announced some time ago he would retire from the office when his present term expired to give all his time to business. He will retain own ership of the local clubs franchise, however, he said. The president is authority for tho statement that the leagues circuit will be the same as last season.
