ELIGIBLES MODEST

To a nation already troubled with
such momentous questions as high
taxes. high cost of living, domestic
tnfelicity. and kindred problems. to
stir its peace Of mind, the National
League of Women Voters has had
the temertty to put this question:
D Who are our greatest dozen
women?'
Primarily the league wants the
question answered in order to select
the twelve living women in North
America who best deserve to serve
as examples and inspiration to the
women of Chile and the remainder
Of South America"
Contest Open to All.
The contest apparently carries no
rules and regulations, and is open
TO all, with no line drawn on color,
origin. or politics. All the league
asks. according to a statement from
Its president. Mrs. Maud Wood Park,
is this:
Who are the twelve greatest
women in the United States? Who
the the twelve women our Chilean
sisters may best adopt as guiding
lights? The League of Women Vot-
ers asks everybody's help in an
swering the question"
From a cursory polling of local
feminine celebrities of all descrip-
tions and political faiths it would
seem that many have not the te-
merity to venture an answer to the
question that the league had in pro-
pounding it.
Local Women Reticent.
Il am too busy to indulge in any
controversy that answering this
question will bring on" said Miss
Alice Paul, head of the National
Woman's party
I'D no more be able to answer
this question than resign from the
Metropolitan Opera Company" said
Mrs Harriet Taylor Upton. of the
executive committee, Republican n
National Committee. There are
probably 500 women who might be
classed among the greatest. but 1

All this trouble, which may be-
come of great moment in every
community of the United States,
was caused by Senorita Graciala
Mandujano. graceful and exquisitely
well-mannered young Chilean wom-
an. who came to the United States
five years ago to complete her edu-
cation at Columbia University. De-
spite the fact that she made a bril-
liant record there. she did not ap-
parently, learn what a terrible thing
she wodld do in perpetrating such

America
As official delegate from Chile to
the Pan American Conference of
Women. recently held in Baltimore.
she naively asked the league to Sc
lect for her a dozen women about
whom she will write articles for
publication in the newspapers of

What Chilean women need. she
says. is the kind of incentive the
life story of soundly useful women
in the United States can give them.
And. says Mrs Park. president of
the leagro. The league wishes to
give Senorita Mandujano a compre-
hensive list. restricted to women of

wHITEY THE OWL SAVES
 JUMPER
It often happens in the end An enemy may prove friend.
 Jumper the Hare.
By THORNTON W. BURGESS

Was ever any one in a worse posi- ton than Jumper the Hare? To move would be to give himself away to Whitey the Snowy Owl sitting on a stump such short distance away. To remain where he was would very likely be to have Shadow the Weasel find him, and the result would be the same as to be caught by Whitey the Owl. Neither Whitey nor Shadow knew he was there, but it would be only few minutes before one of them knew It. At least that is the way it looked to Jumper.
 Whitey wouldn't know it unless he moved, but Shadow the Weasel would find his tracks and his nose would lead him straight there. Back and forth. back and forth, this way, that way and the other way just a lit- tlo way off Shadow was running with his nose to the snow. He was hunt ing, hunting for the scent of some one whom he could kill. In a few minutes he would be sure to find where Jumper had been and then his nose would lead him straight to that tree al the foot of which Jumper was crouching.
 Nearer and nearer came Shadow. He was slim and trim and didn't look at all terrible. Yet there was no one in all the green forest more feared by the little people in fur. by Jumper, but Peter Rabbit. by White foot the Wood Mouse, even by Chat terer the Red Squirrel. Shadow was dressed in pure white, all but the tip of his tail This was black, and it was this black spot moving about that had caught Jumpers attention.
 Perhaps" thought Jumper. The won't find my scent after all. Per haps he'll go in another direction But all the time Jumper felt it in his bones that Shadow would find that scent. When he does I'll run" said Jumper to himself 'T'll have at least chance to dodge Whitey. I am afraid he will catch me, but I'll have chance. l won't have any chance at all if Shadow finds me-"
 Suddenly Shadow stopped running and sat up to look about with fierce little eyes, all the time testing the air with his nose. Jumpers heart sank. He knew that Shadow had caught a faint scent of some one. Then Shadow began to run back and forth once more. but more carefully than before. And then he started straight for where Jumper was croaching. Jumper knew then that Shadow had found his trail.

And as he did this he looked over to that stump where Whitey had been sitting So long. Whitey was just leaving 1t on his great silent wings. and his fierce yellow eyes were fixed in the direction of Shadow the Weasel. The fact is he had seen that moving black
