LITTLE HELEN IS
HAVING HER
PARTY
Girls Prayer Answered-She
Lives to See Birthday
Cake Lighted.

CAMDEN, N. j., Nov. 26,-The
prayer Of little Helen Hamilton that
she might live to enjoy her thir-
tenth birthday has been answered.
Helen, who is suffering from an
incurable heart ailment, was thir-
teen today, and happily her condi-
ton was better than it has been
in many days.
Propped up in bed, the child
thrilled over the gifts showered
upon her. Presents. many from
distant cities, were piled high about
her. The candles on her birthday
cake-the child's inspiration to live
during recent weeks-were lighted.
A Philadelphia heart specialist be-
lieved he was to bring the girl the
greatest gift Of all-his prediction
that the child might be cured and
live a number Of years.
But I don't want to live II ]
must suffer so. However, Gods
will, not mine, must be done"
Helen said.
Helen attracted nationwide atten-
ton two weeks ago when, at the
point Of death. she, with her
widowed mother, was evicted from
the one-room howell in which she
lived. Her landlady insisted the
sick girl was a bother. Physicians
said to move the girl would cause
instant death. But the child sur
ViVed.
Since then gifts have come from
cities In every part Of the United
States. Two presents OF money
were received from London, and
one from Paris.
Everybody is so kin0-but l
Just wanted to live until today so
that I could see the candles on my
cake lighted" Helen said.
"NOW I am hapnY."

WITNESSES TESTIFY
WOMAN ATTEMPTED
TO COMMIT SUICIDE
How Mrs. Saludes Tried to
Leap Out of Window
Told at Trial.

New York, March 3.-Five attempts
made by Mrs. Paulette Saludcs to
commit suicide after she had shot
Oscar Martelliere in his brokerage Of
flee here last October were described
yesterday at her trial for murder.
Three of the four witnesses. who
testified regarding the defendants eff
forts to take her own life. said she
had appeared TO them irrational. The
fourth, Detective stephen NJ. Dunn
ply. who ADMITTED he was assigned
to the district attorneys office and
had been working on the case, said
he thought her sane.
These witnesses were called after
Mrs. Saludes. her cross examination
over. had left the stand. After they
had been heard. the case was adj
journed until Monday afternoon.
The first witness called after Mrs.
Saludes was Timothy Tormey. a
clerk in the office Of James A. Tur-
ley, the defendants counsel, to which
she went after the shooting. Tormey
said she was so incohcrent that she
scarcely could be understood.

revolver from her hand when she had
pointed it at her head. and that two
attempts she had made to leap from
a window had been frustrated.

Can't Be Equals of Men Outside
Home, Woman Preachers View

Cleveland, March 2.-Women never
will attain equality with men in poll
ties, business or other interests out
side the home. Yet the men of Amer
lea treat their countrywomen more
like equals than ever they have been
treated before-more like equals thau
they are treated by the men of any
other land.
These are the conclusions of Miss
Agnes Maude Royden. noted London
preacher, a visitor in the United
States. She reaches them in the light
Of long experience and active partici
patton in women's affairs in her own
country.
Your mems attitude toward
women" she says, "is the most civ
ilized in the world. Women are
treated here more as human beings,
more like equals, than anywhere
else.
It's Only Social.
But that is socially.
"Outside of social relationship,
women cannot be mems equals.
Take business, politics, religion.
art. The women who equal men in
these fields always must be in a
minority, because children have the
first claim oon women. Their vital
forces always will go, as now, into
the making, not of art and politics,
but of men and women"
This does not mean, Miss Royden
adds, that women should refrain
from any part in public affairs. In
fact, she herself has been active in
the English movement for wider
recognition of representatives of her
sex.
As for the matter Of a double
standard for the sexes. she says:
THE church stands for a double
standard. in teaching that women
should be chaste and men brave;
women submissive and men indie
pendent.

She could scarcely wait for the day
to end. She thought of going to the
office and asking him then and there.
Remembering that h. had left her in

that she had not followed her and
