ENJOYABLE MUSICALE

Miss Causey's musicale, given in the
New Century Club on Wednesday ev-
ening, was a very great success. About
twenty-five pupils took part and the
program lasted about two hours. Spe-
cial features of the evening were the
solos of Mrs. Clyde Nelson. The clos
ing number, a trio by Mrs. Nelson,
Mrs. Harry Humes and Miss Causey
was most enjoyable.

FIUNJT1S|Ia
WASHINGTON fg TiT1;iiis
LETTERz!gls
BY HARRY B. HUNT
NEA Service Writer

WASHINGTON, May 23.-Pigs
are not just pigs to Senator Arthur
Capper of Kansas. To Capper, pigs
signify, above all else, opportunity.
That's why Capper is prouder Of
being the father of the Capper Pig
Clubs than he is Of having been gov
ernor of his state or of his present
seat in the United States Senate
Years ago Capper found in his
mail an appeal from boy who want
ed to buy pig. His plea for pig
was so genuinely that of an ambi-
tious youngster who wanted The
porker as toe-hold on the ladder
of advancement, that Capper deeid-
ed to take chance.
He wrote the youngster letter
lof commentator and encourage
ment, enclosing a check for enough
money to buy pig, but stipulating
that the money was a loan, nos
gift, and should be repaid out Of
profits after herd had been devel
oped.
This first pig thrived, produced
in kind and the boy, prospering, re-
paid the loan. Capper felt the glow
of having accomplished real ser
vice. He would extend the idea.
The Capper Pig Clubs were the re-
suit.
In these clubs, Capper goes into
partnership with each member, ad-
vancing enough cash to enable the
boys to start their herds, always
stipulating that they buy pure bred
stock.
To date he has advanced more
than 100000 to his, boy partners,
without any security other than the
boys honor. But he has never LIST
dollar SO advanced.
With the pig clubs for boys estab-
lished, the idea was broadened to in
clude poultry clubs for girls. Aud
these have been equally successful
Childless himself, Capper has his
greatest pleasure in hearing of the
success of these boys and girls
whom he has assisted to start in
life. The benefits have not been
economic, alone, he feels.
More than the financial aid this
assistance has given the youth of
his state, he believes, is the growth
in character and initiative that has
been developed through these clubs.
He feels he is helping Kansas pro
duce not only better pigs and p3ul-
try, but better men and women.
The Proclamation of Emancipa-
ton was written in Washington.
The fourteenth amendment to the
Constitution, establishing the civil
and legal equality of whites and
blacks, was enacted in Washington.
Washington, as the nations CAPT.
hal, should, one would think be the
city above all others where the equal
status of all citizens would be no
held and where racial and group
prejudices would be minimized. But
and this is just typical instance
When it became known that the
