The Spokane woman. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1921-1935, 1927-01-06
By Mabel Laycock (Mrs. S. E. Hege

Before the war, passports were
practically unnecessary to the aver
age traveller Taking a boat across
the Atlantic was no more than taking
a trip of like distance by rail.
The war changed all this. There
has been, however, some improvement
since the war closed. Passports are
now issued for two years in place of
one, and Uncle Sam no longer has
the disagreeable habit of insisting that
his citizens produce their income tax
certificates before they leave this
country
When you have your passport the
next step is to get your visas for the
countries you intend to enter. If you
have not fully determined just where
you wish to go a single visa for the
country first visited will be COM
promise arrangement and if you go
either to London or Paris you will
find facilities for securing the all
necessary visas for entrance into
other countries.
Or, this can be attended to at the
point of embarkation a few days be-
fore you sail, but it is better, if pos
sible, to be so fully prepared that
you can enjoy San Francisco, Seat.
tie or New York without the hurry
or worry of visas.
Sometimes the steamship compa-
mics or their agents will arrange all
this for you. Whatever the arrange.
ment you make, your little green
bound passport must receive the Of

tatives of the nations you wish to
visit before you are permitted to enter
There are two exceptions to this
rule, Switzerland and Belgium take it
for granted that the United States
would not issue a passport to any
one not entitled to receive one. Their
confidence in Uncle Sam saves you
ten dollars each if these countries are
listed in your itinerary.
There is just one more thing to re-
member about this official prepare.

tographs with you, half dozen at
least. You will doubtless be called
upon to leave one or two such souve-
Mrs with the officials of each country
and 1t is we'll to be prepared.

lonesomely reposing in my purse, and
last, but not least, there was my birth
certificate.
Now all the delving into the dark
archives of an eastern state could not
produce a birth certificate of the vim
tage | required, so the sworn state
ment of relative had to be obtained.
Fortunately my father and mother
were still living and in due time they
were persuaded to go to the court
house and swear to my age.
Now this was a subject had never
discussed with anyone, believing with
Ebert Hubbard, that there was some
thing queer about a woman who was
perfectly willing to tell her age. But
father and mother had known all
about it for long time, so that didn't
matter
All puffed up with a feeling of in
tellectual superiority | said to the
charming clerk who came forward,
"Pd like a passport, please" reaching
for my ten dollars worth, my two
photographs and after looking all
about to see that no one else was in
the room, l produced my birth certi-
ficate, only to learn that, if l had
been married before 1922, and my
grandchild testified | had, it was my
husbands birth certificate and not
mine that was required.
Oh, what a blow! Where was my
right of franchise? Where was my
independence and, oh, where was that
birth certificate that l might hastily
bring it back into the darkness of
a closed purse?
l drowned my disappointment and
resurrected my pride by going shop
ping for a two-piece tan flannel that
would be comfortable under a coat
on the steamer and returned home
with a Burgundy colored one-piece
Jersey consoling myself with the
knowledge that it would be a more
becoming color in case of seasickness.
There are all kinds of details about
getting passport, besides those of
when you were married Whether
you ever had passport before, wheth-
er you are a native or naturaliZed
citizen, etc., but none of them con-
cerned my Baedeker friend who had
so carefully informed.

GUNMAN GETS CHAIR;
EMPLOYER GETS S YEARS

La Grange, Tex, Dec 30-When
his employer as a gunman finally
broke down and confessed that she
paid Pete Banks, Negro, a sum of
money to slay her husband, C. P.
Jones, Southern Pacific agent, he
was sentenced to death in the cleo
trio chair. Mrs. Ella Jones testified
that she hired Banks to commit the
crime.
A fifty-five year sentence imposed
on Mrs. Jones, was reduced to five
by former governor of Texas. Citi-
zens of La Grange think that an eff
fort should be made to commute
Banks sentence to life imprisonment.
Leading and influential white citizens
think that the Negro was unduly in
fluenced by the white woman to com
NIT the crime and have taken steps
to have the condemned mans SEN
tence committed to life Imprisonment.
