PUSS IN BOOTS, JR.
-By DAVID CORY.

"Now, let me think for a moment,
said Puss Junior, slowly curling MS
whiskers, while the little man whose
bullets were made of lead waited impa-
tiently for him to continue. It's
strange how one gets confused" said
Puss "Do you remember what happened
next?" he asked, turning to little Tom
Thumb, who was so excited over the
story that had Puss looked at him
moment longer, he would have known
that Tom had never heard 1t before.
mo, Of course l don't" said Tom.
Curry. Puss dear, want to hear what
happened to Gretel and her brother.
"Oh, YES" said Puss, las soon as the
little owl told US that her brother Han
sci was shut up in the stable, made
up my mind to rescue both children
from the wicked witch. She didn't no
tice that the little Owl was whispering
to me- for she was busy making bread,
Presently she said, Gretel, see If the
oven is hot"
I'm not sure said the child, crying
bitterly. and then the old witch gave her
q slap and opened the oven door herself
and. as she leaned to look In, gave her
a push. In she went, head first, and,
quick as a wink, / slammed the door
shut and fastened 1t tight. Then Gretel
and 1 unlocked the stable door ard freed
her brother.
"Can you get home all right?" 1 asked
them. Eyes, answered Gretel, for on
our way here we dropped little white
stones, and we can follow them back
until we reach the edge Of the forest.
and then they hurried away after hug
ging me and saying how much they ap-
preciated all l had done for them"
"Weu, we'll, WELL" said the little old
man. looking at Puss Junior with great
admiration, you certainly are a brave
cat. I'm glad to have met you, for that
was a fine story you told, and 1t shows
Won are a brave and kind animal"
"Of course he is cried little Tom
Thumb. Didn't he rescue me from the
mouse-trap IN which I was imprisoned
by the kings baker?
sWhat," cried the ittle old man, did
he do that?"
Eyes, indeed" answered Tom Thumb,
"and If you'd like to hear the story, l
will tell it to you myself" But Puss
Junior was SO modest that he refused
TO hear more about himself. And next
time you shall hear what happened after
that.-Copyright 1922, David Cory.

Female Moses
Wanted, AUers
Woman Writer
Ida Clyde Clark DepLOreS
Lack of Leadership Among
Her Sex.
BY JULIA @. HENDERSON.

In the current number of the Pictorial
Review is an editorial by Ida Clyde
Clarke entitled, "Wanted-A Female
Moses"
Mrs. Clarke, who is a well known
writer and worker among women and
has studied her sex from various angles,
deplores lack of leadership and concen-
tration among women. Mrs. Clarke be-
IIeves that a real leader lives among us,
but we must find her. She said there is
no pioneering to be done, no more
frontiers, we must stand where we are
and do something about present day
problems If they are ever to be any
better"
She argues well as to the force and
power that lies within the National
Council of Women with its something
like ten million members and the Gen
eral Federation of Women's Clubs with
its more than two million members and
what might be accomplished through
such bodies working in unison. II there
could be developed a leader who could
direct the efforts of these groups and
concentrate their minds and hearts on
given object, she pointed out, the world
might well take notice and know that
there must be decisive victory over the
object set out to be attained.
While MRS Clarke asserts that the
country is over-organzed she suggests,
and with good reason, the following plan:
"Why could we not have a council OF
presidents, who would go over the whole
field Of feminine endeavor, dispassionately
decide which are the most pressing needs
and concentrate all effort on these, appor-
tioning to each organization that part OF
the work to which 1t Is peculiarly
fitted2"
That women's interests are, and have
been, too scattered, has been foreseen
by all thinking women, but the way out
of 1t has not as yet been found. Mrs.
Clarke's suggestion may be the answer
at least. # Is well worth trying.
The thought brought out in the edi-
torial in question has been discussed in
city and State groups throughout Indi-
>ana time and again with no answer as
to how best to solve the problem of con-
centrated effort and concerted action, but
women are only finding themselves in
many ways and we doubt not that before
many more years shall have passed there
will be an awakening among women that
will reveal them to themselves and their
power, which at this time may be in
measure latent, will be revealed to the
world.
Having had many responsibilities
throw upon them, 1t will take time to
come to an ultimate inclusion as to what
is best to advance their interests. That
they will find the Female Moses" there
ia no doubt.

Notes of Interest
TO Women

How business women should Dress Is
open for much discussion these days.
The consensus of opinion, as reflected In
an article in ''The Independent Woman
on the subject, is the favored business
costume Is to be no different than that
worn by the conservative, well-dressed
cosmopolite who always prefers to be in
conspicuously dressed on the street.
The Woman's Rotary Club Of Evans
Vile has a plan by which 1t manages to
keep one young girl yearly in school
who otherwise might have been forced
to stop to earn her living before her
education was completed.
Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president of
the Baltimore League of Women Voters,
has been invited to Canada looking to
the establishment Of a like organization
there.
With Governor Edwards of New Jersey
coming out on wet platform and the
highest tribunal in New Jersey-the
Court of Eros and Appeals setting
aside as unconstitutional the State pro-
hibition enforcement law, the women of
that State are preparing for a hard
fight. The law known as the Van Ness
Law was passed over the veto Of Gov
ernor Edwards at the last session of the
Legislature, and Mrs. Jennie C. Van
Ness, its author, was defeated for re-
election last November.
At the Pan American Conference of
Women to be held in Baltimore, April
20 to 20, there win be a conference on
the political status/of women in charge
of Mrs. Carrie Chapman Gait, president
of the International Woman Suffrage
Alliance

Industrious hands in many odd cor
ners of the world have been toiling for
many months in what has been almost
labor of love-the making Of Princess
Mary's wedding gown. Weavers in
Brittany, spinners in Holland silk
threaders in Japan, lace makers in Bel
GUM all have played their part in the
creation of this marvellous tilmy billow
on dainty satin and organizes. No Queen
Of England, no Czarina or Empress ever
wore to the altar wedding gown as
truly beautiful and as smartly modish.
