Miss Adams made an exceedingly
interesting talk to more than 200
women at the breakfast given for her
this morning at the Heron Coffee shop
by the Shawnee County League of
Women Voters. taking for her subject
the situation of women in Europe and
the experiences which they are having
as far as suffrage is concerned.
The speaker first told of the politi-
cal standing of women in Europe
when she was there in 1913; how in
Vienna when a suffrage meeting was
held it was called a literary society
meeting as the government at that
time had forbidden women to meet
and talk suffrage.
In 1921 there were eleven women
in the lower house of government in
Austria, and four women in the upper
house, she said. In the city council
of siXty-four persons there were
| twenty-five women and the head of
public education in Vienna was also a
woman. Women are in the parlia-
ment or governing body of Czecho-
Slovakia, one of them being a -'shawled
and aproned" peasant woman who
very ably and intelligently represents
the agricultural body. Hungary has
one woman in its parliament, and there
are thirty-six women in the national
governing body of Germany. In Italy
the women are not in the national
governing body but they have various
and important offices in the munich
palities and cities. France and Italy,
according to the speaker are the slow
est to give suffrage to their women.
In Switzerland the bill which was to
have given the women voting rights,
has just been lost
More Vital Part in Affairs
The women in Europe are not alone
taking an intensely active interest ir
suffrage, but they are waking up, thru
the disastrous effects of the war, to
the importance of child nutrition and
education.
All in ALL the women of Europe are
! taking much bigger and more vital
part in the affairs of their country
than the women of America are Just
now. Miss Adams closed with an ap-
peal to the women of our country. to
understand the situation of European
women and to follow it closely.
Members of many of the represen-
! tative clubs of Topeka were present
at the meeting this morning. and
greeted the guest of honor including

THE SUPREME COURT

Judge Baughn of Florence is being urged from many parts of the state to become candidate for the supreme court against Judge Ross. Judge Baughn was pitted against sJudge Ross in 1916 and came very close to election. It is believed that he will yield to the call and again enter the race against Judge Ross this year.
 Judge Baughn is widely known throughout the southwest, not only as a judge of the highest or der on the bench, but also as man who has done much to put Arizona on the map as state of great possibilities. He has been an untiring worker for the initiation of national reclama- tion policy for the entire west, and has given great service to the people of Pinal county and the state in pushing the San Carlos project to the front. Largely through his efforts has the federal government been induced to undertake the construction of the initial project for the re- claiming of lands in Pinal county which will in time mean the San Carlos storage dam and an- other Salt River valley in this state.
 His work in this connection was recognized to the extent of naming him as the chief speaker on reclamation at the Arizona Industrial Conference held in Phoenix last winter
 While being urged to become candidate for the United States senate also, Judge Baughn has indicated that he prefers for the time being to remain in judicial work, and it is believed that he will become candidate for the supreme court The chief objection to his running for this of flee comes from the people of his own county who do not wish to see him give up his office there where it is conceded that he could be re- elected without any trouble.-Phoenix Republi- can.

THE EDITORIAL PAGE

Every great movement for reform or desired improvement has owed it's success to newspaper editorial support declared Colonel Thomas Stout of the Lewiston, Mont, Democrat-News in an address on the Importance of the Editorial Page" before the annual convention of the Nat ional Editorial association.
 Regard for the general welfare is growing steadily throughout the newspaper profession, Y said Col Stout.
 ''Likewise the day when unknown owners could direct, through dummies, the policy of a newspaper for their own evil purpose is gone never to return again and the passing of that day marked tremendous advance in the life of responsible journalism in America"
 ''No thoughtful newspaper owner or editor of the present day regards his paper in any other light than as public service institution with certain definite obligations, as sacred as any bound by formal oath, to work always for the public good" Col. Stout continued. 'This and a well-deserved reputation for the independence and fearlessness constitute the papers most val uable asset.
 ''The editorial page is the very soul of the newspaper. There one sees reflected the reasons why the paper is strong or weak, dead or alive, worth while or useless. We have in our country many newspapers which have survived the vicis- situdes of changing times. An examination will reveal that it is not any exceptional news policy which has been for their success in retaining place in the confidence of shifting circles of read ers That place has been held by reason of edi- torial policies which, though they may have changed to meet altered conditions, nevertheless retain always the strength given by profound conviction and honest purpose"

LOVE AS IT WERE

It used to be said that Hove is blind," but that was when Grandma was girl. Love, according to the delectable newspaper mush stuff of today, is a most radiant radio, including the number of kisses gave and took since the first time He said: Hello, Skirt, who bobbed your hair? Which is the shortest?" If the newspapers don't find out about the Hove affair the whole thing falls flat and shows conclusively that they never can expect to get into the movies short of murder-and that's so common nowadays. Love thy neighbor as myself" used to be alright, but as flapper recently said: "Women are getting so d-jealous that husbands are afraid to get two blocks from home without chaperone." The "flip-flapper," the antipenultimate of the "flapper," as it were, says: Husbands should be more liberal with their wives. Breaking hearts and things is really getting too expensive"
