OFFICIALS CONFER
/. IN EXPRESS STRIKE
Union Head Goes to New
York in Effort to End Tie
up-PIanes Used.

NEW YORK, october 11.-George
M. Harrison. president of the Inter
national Brotherhood of Railway and
Steamship Clerks, arrived today from
Cincinnati to attempt to settle the
strike of American Railway Express
employees, which has tied up incoming
and outgoing express traffic in Greater
New York, including hundreds Of cars
of fruit, vegetables, fish and other per-
ishables.
Harrison Immediately went into a
conference with Robert Morgan, vice
president of the brotherhood, and Col.
M. I. Reagan and George A. Cook of
Washington, members of the Board of
Mediation.
From all outward appearances the
strike continued effective. Big express
terminals were idle Only aerial ex-
press was operating to capacity, express
officials said because of the embargo
placed by the company on other traf-
fic.
Varying estimates of the number Of
men on strike were given by express
company. officials and local officers of
the Brotherhood of Railway and Steam
ship Clerks, the striking union. The
company said not more than $500 men
were out, while the union heads said
10000 to $4,000 men were on strike.
Local union men said the strike was
called because the company refused to
recognize their representatives. There
has been a dispute in the American
Federation Of Labor between the
Brotherhood Of Teanlsters and the
clerks brotherhood as to which union
should have the teamsters, chauffeurs
and stablemen. The dispute finally led
to the ousting of the clerks brother
hood from the A. F. of L. A peace
agreement was reached and the ban on
the clerks union was lifted last May.
A union delegate said the direct cause
of the strike was the refusal of the
company to grant $3-a-week increase
in pay to correspond to one recently
granted teamsters.

Beauty Answers

T., H.; Eye exercises should be
suggested and directed by one who
knows the strength of your eyes. To
exercise the eyes beyond their
strength only means additional trou-
BILE. See an eye specialist about the
condition of the eyes. It is possible
you need glasses.
Mrs. l.. N; Scratches on the skin
should be treated Immediately to
avoid the danger of infection. First
cleanse the scratch with boiled water
and follow with an application of
tincture Of iodine.
J.. r.: When washing the hands
avoid either extremely hot or cold
water. Tepid water is best for them.
Dry thoroughly, and several times a
day apply hand lotion. When you
are putting cold cream on your face
at night rub some cream into the
hands.

Pumpkin Recipes

With the arrival of frosty days
the pumpkin comes into its own, but
the traditional pie is not the only
appetizing way in which this veget-
able may be prepared.
In some families griddle cakes are
served every morning. A variation
of the usual recipe will no doubt be
welcome. Pumpkin griddle cakes
are delicious: Beat well together

cup of sifted cooked pumpkin. Melt
a quarter of cup of butter and
add to the mixture, beat we'll and
turn into hot creased pans. Bake
20 minutes in a hot oven..
Fritters
| A good accompaniment to a meat
stew or pot roast are pumpkin fritz
tiers. Sift together a cup of flour,
half a teaspoon of salt, one teaspoon
of ground ginger and one and half
teaspoons of baking powder. Beat
two eggs until light, add them to a
cup of milk, then stir in a cup OF
cooked pumpkin. Beat this gradual
ly into the dry ingredients and beat
until very light. and add a tablespoon
of molasses Bake on a hot griddle
browning both sides.

sifted pumpkin add one well-beater
egg, two tablespoons of melted but.
ter, half teaspoon of salt and cur
of almonds blanched and chopped

WOMEN'S PAGE
Your Problems
Let Edith White Help You to Solve Them

I'm glad, too, that you are going to
be rid of your stepfather. You can't
get rid of the five feet, IL, of course.
But you can and win make the best
of it. I know number of women
who are as tall as that and they have
lots of friends and are very much
loved. 1t all depends on you. UNI
derstand exactly how you feel but
there is a remedy for it and we're
going to find it. Happiness comes
from the inside, not the outside. And
that's lucky thing because IT makes
us the captains of our own happiness.
Remember the verse-"The kingdom
of heaven is within YOU" That means
you can live in a heaven of your own
making if you will. The first thing
for you to do is to stop thinking
about being tall. You know you are,
so Just let it go at that. 1t is true
that men shorter than you probably
won't want to dance with you, but
that IS nothing against you. It won't
prevent your being good friends with
them. The way to have friend is to
be one. Watch for every chance to
add to the happiness of others. When
your step-father is gone, you might
ask few friends now and then to
your home. You get out of life just
what you put into it and if you put
! love and unselfishness and service
and thoughtfulness into your life
! that's what you'll get out of it. One
of the most popular girls / ever knew
was as tall as you are. She married
six-footer. You'll find the right
man some day and meanwhile you
must put in the time making your
. life SO lovely and helpful to Others
, that you'll be worthy of real prince
when he comes along.

Dear Miss White: May / be
member of your column? | am II
years old and one of the unhappiest
girls that ever lived.
First of all, have mean step
father. There is never peace in our
house-always quarrel, quarrel, quar-
ell. Ny friends hate to come to see
me on account of him.
He has made nervous wrecks out
of mother and me. My little sister
both hates and fears him. Mama will
soon have divorce, so maybe wen
be better off.
Then, I am unusually tall--five
feet, ii inches. 1t is terrible to be
so tall. When going down the street
everyone calls me "slim" or some
thing like that, and I hate it. When /
go to a party am left all alone be-
cause am too tall and nobody wants
so tall a girl. | always look up a
deserted corner and listen to the
music and cry. I am not considered
ugly but lust in between.
The only satisfaction that I have
is my work. work in factory and
make fairly good money. Enough
to support my mother and sister, as
that is what must do now.
SO you see, Miss White, there real
" is not much joy in life like mine.
I'd love to have many friends and be
gay, but what is the use? I'm so
different from the others.
/ hope this letter is not too long,
for you have so many others to take
care of. Thank you very much, as
Pm sure you understand how feel,
Nobody else does.
I feel much better now that have
told my troubles to some one.

Dear Miss White; Some time ago
told my chum something about a
girl friend. To my embarrassment
a few days ago the girl came to me
and asked me why / talked about
her. Now she does not speak to me
anymore and | am sorry to lose her
riendship.-Lola.
You must learn to refrain from
telling even your chums anything
which YOU wish kept confidential. II
seems hard not to tell somebody but
/ IL is safe. There are. very few people
who won't repeat what they hear and
will sometimes tell the person about
whom it was said.
Most folks have mistaken idea
that they are sealing a friendship
by repeating something unpleasant to
one about whom Il was said. It is a
mistaken notion, however, for the
person talked about usually ends
up by disliking the person who did
the talking and the person who car
ried the gossip.
Dear Miss Edith: | corresponded
with young man for about year.
He has visited me twice and l like
him very much. ~
Now l haven't heard from him for
the past two months, although have
written twice. Do you think that he
is sick or has moved? Should write
again?-L. X.
Dear L. K.-Looks as if the boy has
another interest. If he were sick he
could get someone else to notify you.
Even if he has moved he has your adj
dress.
The best thing for you to do is
to forget him. If he should write
again don't seem overjoyed. I'd GER
tainly take my time answering.
Dear Miss White; have two lit
tie girls, six and eight years old

Hoping to see my answer in Thu

in advance, will sign,--L. II. X.
Il seems to me that the matter o
putting such little girls in school i
\ one that shouidbe taken up by some
body who knows the girls PERSONAL,
and would have good judgment as t
what school is best fitted for them
Go to several pastors in your cit
and ask them to recommend a school
No school, however, can take tn
place of a wise and loving paren
when children are so young. Woul
i it be possible for you to keepsa HON

tive of yours who would love the chi
dren and who could come to you an
take care of them and the home fo
you? Possibly you could find som
good home in your city with a kin'
childless couple, who would be gla
to board and room you and your littl
girls and look after your children.
am suggesting these things as pc:

dren. | hope you won't give thei
