NEW YORK, Jan. 14.-John T. Ad- ans, chairman of the Republican na- tional committee, in an address be- fore the Woman's National Republi- can club, urged the women to JoIn either of the two great political par ties and not identify themselves with independent movements.
 There is about as much logic in women forming political group" he said, 'as there woulG je in having the green-eyed, or the red-haired, or the bald-headed people set themselves aside as a political body.

PLYMOUTH ROCK POINTS.

The average Barred Rock as found
or general farms and most commercial
poultry plants has all the major
breed OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES is. general
size, conformation and color-but il
is not the thing OF exquisite beauty
that we find in Barred Rock Alley"
:n the big poultry shows. This Is
due 10 the fact that one must be a
skilful breeder 10 produce the winning
show type. Yet each has its place
and each nlls the biz and makes
good.
The American standard OF perfec-
ton. in which is Set down a detailed
description OF all breeds OF poultry
oficially recognized by the American
Poultry Association. calls for the fol-
lowing weights OF Barred Plymouth
Rocks: Cocks. nine and a half pounds !;
cockerels. eight pounds: hens, seven
and a half pounds; pullets. six pounds.
Il will lie noted that these weights.
especially OF hens and cock erels which
make up the bulk~of the market fowls,
are about those required for chick
on dinner" for the average family.
Add 10 this important matter OF de-
sirable size the fact that the Rocks
have their flesh well distributed and
possess the desired yellow skin and
shanks. the reason for their great
popularity as table fowls becomes very
apparent.

surprising carelessnees in allowing all
sorts OF filth and rubbish TO accumu-

ditions. and II makes little difference
whether this uncleanliness is in the
yards or in the house.

Patrolmen of the East Seventy third,

with four bandits who attempted to
steal the automobile Of the Rev. John
O'Connel, pastor of the Carmclite
Church, in East Twenty-ninth Street,
near First Avenue, last night from in
front of the church.
Several hundred persons were gath
cred in the school hall of the church,
where a bazaar for the benefit Of the
Sim Fcin Society was held. The shots
OF the bandits and the patrolmen threw
them into panic.
AS men and women rushed from the
church they saw four men driving
away in Father O'Connells automobile
Two of the men were standing in the
man Frank Memo, of the East Seventy
third Street station. who was pursuing
them. Patrolman Louis Raia, of the
Old Slip station, who was off duty,
hearing the shots, joined the chase.
Patrolman Fadley, of the East Thirty
fifth Street station, also pursued the
car.
After following the machine for
more than two blocks, one of the men
jumped from the running board to the
street. A moment later the automobile
crashed into the curb, and the other
three bandits leaped out and escaped.
Later Patrolman Fadlcy took Rich
ard Webb, nineteen years old, of 1921
East Twenty-fifth Street, to the East
Thirty-hfth Street station, where he
was locked up on a charge of attempted
grand larceny after Fadley alleged
