Around Cape Horn

The }olIosoing is the fourth INSTALL

American Merchant Marine, 8,
The overland route to Californiaewas
long and beset by the rnenaces Of
Indian warfare and the terrors of
desert crossings. The Panama route
was unknown. The shortest and
safest, though the longest in mileage,
lay round Cape Horn. And so to the
tea clippers that could make their way
to the West in the quickest possible
time the iroves of gold seekers turned.
Then, as now, and as has been
previously indicated, our protective
laws seized this coast-to-coast trade-a
deep water voyage though II is-to
American built and American-owned
vessels. Freights rose as high as s150
cubic foot, or $50 ton Of forty
cubic feet. Who controlled bottom

fortune in his grasp, A ship Of a thou
sand tons, costing $4,000 or 100000
ready for sea, paid for herself and as
much as 25 per cent In addition on
the outward passage. Most Of the i'm

Sir; The letter from Mr.. James Y.

Turkish Atrocities
TO the Editor Of The Tribune.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: 1t is impossible for any an-
telligent person to accept William Mcs
Fee's contention, as printed In to-day's
editorial page, that the Turks do NOT
commit atrocities.
Mr.. McFee claims that the only basis
for the stories Of massacre and out
rage that we have heard is the
ignorance and excitability Of the non
Turkish population, which @goes raw
ing mad with fear" whenever SOL
dier does some innocent thing, such
as posting notice; that when woman
shrieks a mob gets in the way Of a
mounted policeman, who hits out with
his sword--and that is ali there Is TO 1t.
Now, this claim is obviously absurd.
A great organization, the Near East
Relief, composed Of thousands Of The
best people in America, has for years
been collecting money and clothing
for the relief of survivors OF ths
mRssacres. We have seen very many
photographs showing the misery pro-
duced by these raids and hundreds cfeye-
witnesses have described scenes Of out
rage and horror. In our orphanasss
are hundreds Of thousands OF children
whose parents, both parents, have been
killed by the Turks. Great numbers
Of young women have been rescued
from the harems. The number Of the
women forced into them doubtless
reaches the hundreds OF thousands.
Against this great mass of evidence
we have the unsupported statements Of
William McFee. 1t will take more than

More Truth Than Poetry

Abandoned Hope

In youth we longed to write a
book
Some throbbing, gripping
story
By means Of which we hoped to
hook
A barrel full of glory.
But writing tales, we found, was
hard,
Involving years Of labor:
Far easier to be g bard
And ply the pipes and tabor.
Then men Of literary skill
But full Of high ambitions
The which enabled them to f1ll
Imperial positions

And reaped rich profit by It,
winch prompted US to yearn once

To take our pen and try it.
We thought we'd be statesmen,
And gain the worlds affections.
And when we had no work to do
We'd pen our recollections.
we wouldn't need to learn TO
write
In this exalted station;
We knew the book would cell all

Upon our reputation.
We often thought about the case
Of Joseph P. Tumulty,
But getting into such q place

The Rock Island Argus and daily union. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1920-1923, 1922-02-04

London, Feb. 4-When early last
year pretty and gifted Lady Irene
Charters became one of The Mer-
~ Wives of Windsor" through her
marriage to the earl of Plymouth s
eldest surviving son and heir, who
hears the title OF Eiscount Wind
sor, few dreamed the beginning
OF 1922 would ind her eiec,ed with
out opposition to the house of COM
mons, as Conservative member for
the Ludlow division of Shropshire.
Until now, the lower chamber of
the imperial legislature has had to
content itself with two feminine
members, Nancy, Lady Astor, a ma
tive of Virginia. and Mrs. Whit
bingham, a serious minded and emf
nently sensible woman of the upper
middle classes, who, the capable
and devoted lieutenant of her hus-
band, had been chosen in his place
by large majority when he sue
cumbed to oyerwork a couple of
weeks before the date fixed for the
general election.
Both Lady Astor and Mrs. Whit
bingham are women of mature age,
on the shady side of 40, and both,
while comely, have no longer any
pretensions to beauty. Lady Wind
sor, however, who has only just
turned 20, brings to the gloomy old
house all the sunshine and bril-
liancy of youth, with exceptional
loneliness, grace of carriage and
4 charm of manner which come to
her through Inheritance from her
mother.
Viscountess Windsor went to the
United States with her mother,
then Lady Elcho, now Lady We
myss, some years ago. They visited
Viscountess Windsor's brother, Hugo
Charters, attached to the embassy
at Washington.

Paris, Feb. At must be admit
ted that the bead portiere of bless
ed memory furnished the motif for
one type of the latest evening
gowns. The foundation is satin
and snugly fitted. From a beaded
girdle hangs a pair of panels or an
entire overskirt, made from moth
ing more substantial than long
strings of beads. 1t clatters de-
Ilightfully at the slightest motion.
Fringe" is the technical name for
this bead decoration, which pos
sesses the line of popularity enjoy
ed by all types of fringe ct the mo-
ment Chenille panels that fiutter
gently on the faintest pretext are
an adjunct to the crepe frOck which
goes to the theatre or to fashion
able tea Silk fringe is SO well
liked that a Spanish shawl effect is
seen on some models with slightly
bouffant skirts.
Palm Beach, Feb. 4-The man
who invented jumpers because they
were practical workaday garments
would never recognize the modern
des cendants of his brain child. The
spring jumpers are to the original
what the fapper is to her grand
mama. Work and they have moth
ing in common. No use puttering
round the woodpile in petunia
georgette embroidered in tiny je;
beads and edged at neck, hem. and
wide sleeves with mink. Nor grub
bling round the garden in sapphire
chiffon velvet, edged with skunk
and narrow bands of blue and gold
embroidery. Nor beating the rugs

egg, four teaspoons baking powder,
one teaspoon salt, one cup of milk,
one cup of English walnut meats,
broken Place in bread pan and
let rise one-ha1f hour. Let bake
three-quarters of an hour. You
can use part bran, whole wheat or

Velvet Cream-One quart milk.
one-half box gelatine, three-Quar-

milk in a double boiler. add at once
sugar and gelatine. When hot add
beaten yolks of eggs and cook until
gelatine has dissolved and it looks
like a thin custard (about 10 min

add at once the beaten whites of
eggs. Flavor with a teaspoon of
vanilla. 1t is better made the day
before when used for lunch. Serve
with cream.

cup of -four put a level teaspoon of
baking powder, sift it. Crate off
the yellow of rind of lemon; sep

cream with the yolks, then add the
grated rind and a tablespoon of
lemon juice Stir until thick and
creamy: now beat the whites to a
stiff froth, then quickly and lightly
mix without beating a third of the
whites, then more flour and whites
until all are used. The mode of
mixing must be very light, rather
cutting down through the cake bat
