WHEN THE PAPER
DOESN'T COME

My father says the paper he reads amt
put up right;
He finds lot of fault, too, he does,
perusln' it all night
He says there amt single thing in it
worth to read,
And that it doesn't print the kind of
stuff the people need;
He losses it aside and says it's strictly
on the bum,
But you ought to hear him holler
when the paper doesn't come.
He reads about the weddin's and he
snprts like all get out;
He reads the social doin's with most
derisive shout;
He says they make the papers Tor the
women folks alone;
He'll read about the parties and he'll
fumc and fret and groan,
He says of information it doesn't have
Crumb--
But you ought to hear him holler when
the paper doesn't come.
He's always the first to grab it and he
reads plumb clean through,
lie doesn't mss an item, or wan
ad that is true;
He says they don't know what we wan
the darn newspaper guys;
I'm going to take a day some time
and go and put EN- wise;
Sometimes it seems as though they
must be deaf and blind and dumb
But You ought to hear him holer wher
the DaDer doesn't come

 This is the first time that baby show on such a scale has been contem- plated for Birmingham. The two or ganizations backing it hope to make it tremendous civic affair, and are asking the help of all other organiza- tions and citizens of the Magic City, and particularly of the mothers and babies. It will be an old-fashioned baby show, with lots of lovely prizes and many events throughout the three days, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, June 12, 13 and 14. There will be prizes for fat babies and for thin babies, for the prettiest baby, andsfor the most strenuous baby, and so on through a long list of infantile virtues. One of the big events is to be a decorated baby carriage parade, and there will also be a parade of doll-buggies and one of little girls in white.
 The prizes range from Singer sewing machines through handsome sets of sil- yer and table ware, down to necklaces and bracelets. They will be displayed in one of the downtown windows short ly. Registration of babies wilI begin as soon as Mir. Rich arrives, which will be within the next two weeks.

There is a fine new red balsam which will delight flower gorowers who like bright colored blooms in the garden. Called balsam superflera, it has much larger flowers than the common bal sam. These flowers are double, too, and are not hidden by the leaves to such an entent as is usually the case. Al though balsams are very satisfactory for cut flowers, they make fine show ing ill the garden and can be grown almost anywhere, not being at all par ticular about soil or location. The plants are readily grown from seeds sown oin the open ground and begin to flower in few weeks.

 Echoes From National Convention
 No more decisive answer could be given to the question, '.Is Woman Suf- .frage Failure?" that the meeting of the League of Women Voters in na- tional convention in Buffalo recently. These women are not content 'to let George do it'--they are not after pat ronage; there was not word of self seeking in their debates; it is quite evident that they are not fooled and led around by the nose by politicians, as has been claimed. They are not dis turbed by the outcry that they are not moving fast enough and making spec tacular changes since they have the vote. Neither are they blase or dis couraged.
 They are studying government with the eyes of the housekeeper and are trying to see how its processes can be made more orderly and efficient, how public interest can be increased in pub lie affairs and a larger vote be made to express itself. They are planning to Help make a more intelligent cleo torate. They are giving of themselves and their own time, effort and money to help as patriotic citizens to make this better country to live in. They are not fanatics or extremists; they are particularly we'll groomed and well dressed; they are both old and young their lack of self-consciousness is mo- ticeable and they express themselves clearly and with no waste of words.
 We wish that some of the gentlemen who are skeptical about women in poli- tics and also those who are pessimistic about the future of the country could spend, day at league convention. They would agree with John W. Davis that there is no more hopeful sign. in the life of the nation today than the League of Women voters.-The Woman

Room Can
 Be Made Over For Summer
By ELAINE MASON

HTTr
 ,. When the real warm weather has nnaiiy arrived, most all of the time VIII De spent out of doors and that which IS spent inside will be consumed mostly in the dining room at meal times! Therefore, make the dining room as beautiful as possible so that every one will enjoy the hours in the house as much as those spent out in the won- der of the spring air and sunshine.
 Even the dark formal dining room can be cheered up for the summer time by new bright chintzes and gay-colored cushions or slip covers for the chairs. Tablecloths of colored damask and col ored doilies are happy and informal for the summer. Then the rug can be changed for the summers. Instead Of leaving a dark, warm looking floor when the rugs are removed, get bright coiored grass or rag rug to give life to the room. Color is really the most inn portant thing of all, as 1t is always, this which decides the spirit or for mality of an interior. Isn't 1t tho color of the budding leaves and spring flowers that cheers you up? Of course It. IS, so repeat these same colors in your home
 One dining room has been entirely remodeled. It will do not only for the summer, but is not too cottagey and yet not formal. The furniture has all been painted and vanished subdued grayish green, sort of the color that is fashionable for dress silks.
 The chairs are decorated with gold lines and colored flowers stenciled on the backs, while the serving table has been treated the same way.
 The top of the table in the center of the room is painted green with charm ing bouquet painted in the center and the whole top under glass. This does away with the necessity of tablecloths and is always clean and bright. Over the serving table is a set of hanging shelves painted green with gold lines at the edges of the shelves. The cups and saucers of a set of peasant dishes repose here in all their glory, while on the table beneath are candlesticks and tea set of silver
 The walls of the room are paneled atthe bottom and all the woodwork has been enameled pale yellow, while the space above this is papered ill palest green striped wall paper. No pictures are hung on the walls but odd plates of interesting designs are hung by means of ribbons. At the top of each ribbon is flower-like rosette and tas- sel to hide the hook. The pattern of the dishes is matched as close as pos sible in the cretonne, which is the glazed variety, and trimmed with bands and bindings of plain bright blue glazed ribbon. Sash curtains are of yellow net with blue rickrack edgings. The seat beneath the window has been made inviting by it's cretonne cushions and odd three-cornered end cushions, weighted down by big blue tassels.
 Instead of painting the floor or using any kind of rug, marbleized linoleum in black and yellow squares has been used over the entire space. This use of linoleum is always the best thing to do in an old house where the floor is of uneven boards or in bad condition.

SPANIsH "SHAVV" EXILED

Miguel de CnamunO, one of the out standing literary figures of Spain, re. gently was deported by General Primo de Rivera, the military dictator, to the Canary islands for criticising that fas. cist warrior and his regime. The de portation has caused storm of pro- test in Europe, especially in the neigh boring Latin countries and England and Germany.
 In commenting on the Spanish gov ernment's actions, Ernest Boyd, writ ing in the New York Herald Tribune states that the situation is very much as if the French government should ex- ile Anatole France because he disap- proved of the Ruhr policy. "Unamuno has never inveighed against the Span ish powers that be one-half so sharply as Shaw has against the English" :" Mir. Boyd points out.
 In a protesting statement in various French newspapers, Romain Roland, author of Jean Christophe," de- scribes Unamuno as ''the. greatest glory not only of Spain, but of all the Iber- ian countries" He adds that it is 8 shameful mockery to see a government which describes itself as patriotic de- priving the country of the most prec- ious ornament in its crown" In Italy, D'Annunzio has issued a flaming pro- test in characteristic vein, and calls the Spanish dictator a "petty, picares- que tyrant." Andre Glide, Ellie Faure and other continental writers have join ed in defending Unamuno.
 The exiled Spaniard is author of novels, short stories, travel sketches, poems and essays, while chief among his philosophical studies are ''The Tragic Sense of Life," which has been translated into English, and 1.-The Life of Don Quixote and Sancho." He con tributes constantly to newspapers and magazines, was vice-rector of Salamanca university and professor of Greek there.
 Unamuno has endeavored in his writ ing, Mir. Boyd states, to shake Spain, both governors and governed. from the lcthargic reaction and torpid acquies- cence into which it relapses between the revolutionary outbreaks that have punctuated it's history in modern times.
