The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1927-02-17

The Republican members of the AS
sembly have not been acting like
themselves; that is, not like Republi-
cans as a whole, for they have been
voting with the administration rather
lively. The real test will come, how
ever, on the gasoline tax and the oys-
ter question. Most of the Republicans
hail from the Western section of the
State and are not so interested in
what should be done with the oyster.
However, if they act like Republi-
cans they will not join the Democrats.
But they all seem so much alike that
it really makes little difference. When
the Governor blows his whistle they
all fall in line. They sort of look upon
him as superhuman being, and obey
his orders before realizing their posi-
ton. There is no question about it,
there are some mushrooms brought
from the dunghills among both par
ties and dumped at the State House
steps.

To The Editor of The Republican:

publish any more than this letter |

l may be able in the future to make
notes of wonderful happenings here.
This letter. as you see, bitches onto
my letter of last week. | could give
you facts enough to cover quite a
number of printed pages, but do not
think it just fair to take up so much
of your space. However, in fairness
to DR.. Goucher and the Missionary So
ciety, | will be glad to see the en-
closed article in print in todays Re-

Usually in the House of Legislation
the halls are filled with women who
are not hard on the mans eyes. They
are from every section of the State,
as each Senator has the appointment
of stenographer, or clerk, lat the
States expense, of course), and very
often lady fills the job. There are
many of these on hand at this session,
but the number is far below the aver
age, in the way of employees How
ever, those who are on hand are no
dolly Vardens." Their styles are
the very latest, and some wear bal
zarine, but mostly all fine silks, and
then again some remind one of the old
Indian squaw.

The little statesmen are playing the
game, so often played by beginners,
that of button who has the button,
only they are playing with a resolu-
tion and mot the button, for had it
been a button instead of a resolution
to investigate the so-called Conowingo
deal, they could have swallowed it and
thereby lost the evidence, as swallow
ing evidence is not a new trick among
politicians, for rather than betray his
chief the famous Danny Loden found
it convenient to do little sword swal-
lowing, which proved successful.
However, as the boys are telling the
story in this language, 1 will repeat it:
'They had a meeting, the Speaker,
the Chairman of the Ways and Means
Committee, United States Senator
elect, and few others, at which the
resolution, introduced to cause His
Excellency some embarrassment, was
talked about, and having other impor-
tant matters to decide the new United
States Senator is supposed to have
said give me the order and l will see
what can be done with it, And now
the resolution is lost, but Delegate
Berman promises another one. And
then it often happens that bill, an
order or resolution sometimes goes
on route other than the one intended
for it."

What appears to be the most essen
tial thing next to the State House to
the members of the General Assembly
is the thought of their stomachs. They
seem to have a gnawing feeling, and
just as soon as the two Houses ad-
journ the door opens with bang and
> they go out with a mad rush, helter-
SHELTER down the hill to "Guienot's,"
their special eating house. And on
Wednesday of this week the Baltimore
boss, Frank Kelley, led the mob as
they lined up for their "bouilli."

The one paper that the country
members seem to read and swear by
is the Hagerstown Almanac and even
though there are many bills to be read
they find much time to devote to the
days they will have to spend in a few
weeks on their farms.
But as has often been said of the
country members of the House, there
is little evidence of their just being
dumped off hay wagon in front of
the State House, as l find many of
them are educated and are thoroughly
competent to perform their duties.
There are some, however, who are
backward and act shy, but not dumb,
they are rather like certain classes of
scholars who possess all sorts of
learning and never give any out.

Quite a few of the Baltimore City
Delegates are suffering from savoir
faire. 1t is amusing to watch them,
they are so obedient. In event that
Speaker Brooke Lee happens to turn
his head to the door on his left, so do
they; then should he decide to look to
the right, they do likewise. When the
Speaker stands, they pull their chairs
close to their desks and appear seri-
Gus. Should the Speaker tire of stand
ing and take his seat, they relapse
and smoke. When voting they con-
tinue to obey orders and vote as he
votes. Evidently the orders are to
watch the Speaker"

He Goes Alone

Dear Martha Lee: I am a young man
20 years old. I have a brother and sister
I have friends where I am employed they
never call me TO go to places of amuse-
ment as my sister and brothers friends
I sometimes think I am a fifth wheel
although I have good clothes and spend
freely enough. However. when I go to
the theater / 60 alone. don't think the
girls of today are what they used to be,
maybe I'm just as well off without. ]
am quiet and am not the kind TO mix
I wish in the future to do something
worth while and have lately been studying
with the idea that maybe I could write
maybe motion pictures. What DO you
think of all this9 B.
One of the reasons that you are
not asked to go places as are your
brother and sister, is that you have
a somewhat critical thought. If
you think the girls of today are in
ferior creatures, don't doubt that
they catch your thought and re-
sent it.
Try to have broader, more gen.
erous views of this generation which
only seems worse because conditions
to be dealt with are different. If
you are to write, you should hasten
to get into closer, kindlier relations
with the people with whom you are
thrown. Your aloofness will give
you no understanding of folks and
how then can you write understand
ingly of them?

They Judge HarShIy

Dear Martha Lee:
Dear, Martha Lee: I am Just broken
live in a small town near Indianapolis
and most OF my friends are older women
and belong 10 the same church do. Now.
Miss Lee I hope you will believe me
when l say that 1 did not actually do
ell the women believe that 7 did.
A man who was in our town for six
weeks on an advertising business went
aattered by his attention or something.
Anyway, I did many things like riding
late at night, but | didn't do any more
than this, as they think I die.
didn't know II. but two OF these women
friends kaw me one night and they mis-
construed something and now they don Z
speak 10 me or any OF that crowd don t
and made the man go away and my
heardt is Just broken. MILE.
I'm sure this situation looks worse
to you than it really is. If you did
not do what the women accuse you
of, don't doubt that things will right
themselves. Quit being so afraid,
dear girl
You are unwise to subject yourself
to criticism by giving the appear
ance of evil. for alter all, people
judge by what they see, mistaken as
these appearances often are. 1t
might be well to have your mother
or some older relative go with you to
the leader of this gossip and have a
frank talk about this.

IF YOU VOTE, FIGHT,

CONSTANTINOPLE, June %
Army service for women if they in

was suggested in the National As

and anti-feminist agitation which
has, been continuing throughout
Turkey for several months.
Such a suggestion is an insult to
Turkish womanhood, which has

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON

BY OLIVE ROBERTS BARTON
When children are old enough to
show symptoms of making things"
there is a valuable lesson to learn.
I have recommended "construc-
tive plays" for even the very young
est children. BY constructive plays
l mean the little activities that
have meaning, such as building
block houses, making little objects
out of clay, sorting colors, and
dressing dolls. Any play that causes
thought, selection, or discovery.
Begin to Choose
AS children grow older they begin
to choose their own constructive
recreation. Boys want to build bird
houses and ships. Girls want to
color pictures or do fancy work of
some kind, or make doll clothes.
They may even go farther than
that, such as starting a garden,
painting the porch, baking a little
cake. or making real dress.
Children are excellent starters but
usually poor finishers. They get
tired of something when it is half
finished, then off to something else.
We allow them to do it. Sometimes
because we see what a mess they
are making of things. Sometimes
because we think, "Oh, well, it's
only play anyway. If they want to
put in their time at something else.
what is the difference"
Make Them Finish
If your boy has started a bird
house, or boat, my dear Mr.. or
Mrs. Parent, you'd be doing him the
greatest wrong in the world if you
didn't insist upon his finishing it.
And if your little girl is making a
doll dress, make her finish it, no
matter if it does look more like a
coffee sack than a doll dress when
it is ready for Her Ladyship.
The world is full of fine beginners
and it is almost as full of poor fin
ishers. The others-the remainder
left after the Subtraction-are the
ones who are doing the big things,
the real things in the world. Ollie
tanteS never got anywhere, and
never will.
BY insisting on your children fin
ishihg the things they had initiative
enough to begin of thir own Volt
ton, you are leaving them a greater
legacy than gilt-edged bonds. Ask
any writer if his geratest asset is,
not talent, but stick to-it-ive-ness.
Ask any business man, inventor,
artist, or builder. Ask any woman
who has made a success Of life as
creative worker or business woman.
And ask all good mothers what they
consider their greatest asset
In one great chorus they will re-
ply, THE ability to stick to thing
until it is finished"
A famous general called it, THE
ability to plan the end, not the be-
ginning, of a campaign"

Lite;S NicetieS
Hints on Etiquet

1. How soon must bride write
her Thank You" letters for we'd
ding gifts?
2. Who pays carfare, luncheon
checks and other incidental expen-
ses-the out-of-town house guest or
the hostess?
8. Is it good form to repeat the
names of people just introduced?
The Answers
1. Appreciative, brief notes should
be written within month at the
outside. A wise bride Utilities odd
moments on her honeymoon to get
this courtesy out of the way.
2. The guest.
3. Yes. Moreover, it fixes the
name in your mind.
