Bouquets Of mixed flowers and
tiny American flags decorated the
table Thursday evening when the
War Mothers who are attending the
ninth annual state convention here
were guests of the local American
Legion and Auxiliary at q banquet
at the Grand Pacific hotel. At the
place Of each speaker single rose
was placed.
Mrs. Thomas Spence Of Milwau-
kee, Wis.,, national president Of the
American War Mothers, responded
with an interesting talk when called
upon by r. ]. Kamplin, who presid-
ed as toastmaster.
Mrs. Spence emphasized the fact
that the work which can be done for
the boys who fought in the war is
not over. Many Of them are only
recently feeling the physical effects
Of that period, and more and more
tubercular cases are resulting from
gas and exposure. Mrs. Spence
pointed out various ways in which
the War Mothers could help the
boys.
Mr.. Kamplin welcomed the War
Mothers for the American Legion
and Mrs. Minnie Shuman for the
Auxiliary. Mrs. C. G. Boise Of Bis
marck responded for the War
Mothers.
During the banquet q musical
program was given by the Misses
Clara and Lillian Peltier and Dency
Dickinson, who sang several selec-
tons, accompanied by Mrs. Hermann
Scheffer. Mrs. George w. Janda
played piano solo, and accom-
panied the club singing.

ner. But she will listen eagerly
and intelligently when politics are
discussed-especialy by her best
young man.
She will earnestly endeavor to
comment sensibly and to really
help him in his efforts to stand
for good citizenship. Incidentally
she will. herself. in this way, be-
come a more useful citizen as well
as a more charming, companion
able young woman.
After marriage the public-spirited
woman keeps up her intelligent in

stand for. She knows why she
votes as she does. At odd moments
she finds time for reading on the
subject of political issues.
Years pass. Comes the time
when the children leave home for
college or happy homes of their
own. Shall the modern-old-young
woman of forty-five stop thinking
and working just because she is
relieved of household cares and be-
gin to grow hoplessly old! Not il
she has the true modern spirit.
Instead, she will devote her leisure,
experience. wisdom and energy to
some interesting and constructive
work, such as welfare work or
politics.
Women are likely to make
bIunders in politics, because they
have not had sufficient experience
in this difficult work, which calls
for good sportsmanship poise,
self-control and the ability to adj
just and compromise. But women
are learning. And in learning to
exercise these qualities they grow
tolerant, broad-ninded and SYM
patheticaIly companionable.
Does participating in political
life necessarily cause q woman to
neglect her husband, home and
children, and so to fail as a wife?

The thing that makes a girl
or a woman, whether she be old
or young, dull. narrow-minded
and uninteresting both to men
and women, is centering all her
interests and enthusiasm on her
self and her petty affairs.

I've come to the conclusion
that motherhood consists largely
of salesmanship. Why 1t is that
we must think up ways and
means of making a child want to
do what he should do just on gen.
general principles has undoubted-
II puzzled most of us. But the
fact remains that the more neces-
sary it is for a young person to
do a certain thing the more he
resents doing it. l don't know
that that feeling is limited to
childhood, either. / suspect that
we would all rather do what we
want to do than what We ought
to do.
However. there is principle
which, may be used to good ad-
vantage in guiding your child to-
ward desired activities and that
is dramatization OF the act we
desire. A child will play almost
anything.
A disturbing "going.to-bed" prob
lem was worked out in one fam
lily when the mother, after read
ing her small daughter the story
of Johnny Mouse and the Wish
ing Stick, asked the little girl II
she wouldn't like to play she, too,
had wishing stick.
The tiny girl, who hated going
I'D to bed, and told the world
in no uncertain terms that she
hated it. said Yes" she would
like to play that. SO the mother
thought for a moment, then said:
II know! Let's play that you
have a wishing stick and you get
on 1t and just wish-oh, so hard
that you were up in your nice

sparkled. She straddled make

RECIPES FOR
BANANAS
BY Hannah Wing

s. II
NTo ONE has really enjoyed ba-
IN nanas unless they have eaten
them when thoroughly ripened. It
may come as new idea to many
that those lovely yellow-slxinned
bananas are not always rfpe and
may need to be allowed to ripen
further or to be cooked before
they are eaten. When the green
color disappears the banana has
not necessarily ripened. The yell
low banana is certainly ripper than
the green one. and still it may
not be fully ripe. The skin need
not he dark to show ripeness. hIt
1t should, however, be on the
verge Of being at least delicately
rnottIed. The less ripe bananas
are, the more likely there are to
be strings clinging to the fruit
instead of to the skin. In the
under ripe banana, the strings
should be carefully removed and
the surface scraped.
Bananas fed to little children
should be thoroughly mashed. or
the very firmness Of texture may
cause indigestion in the child.
A slight acid used with bananas.

proves both the digestibility and
the flavor.
Select three fairly ripe but not
over-ripe bananas. Just before
serving remove the strings, scrape
the surface lightly, cut the banana
into one-ha1f.inch dices. Break
one-han cup of English walnuts
into medium-sized pieces. Combine
the bananas and nuts with whipped
cream dressing and serve on deli

The same arguments were
brought up when women went
into business life, yet 1t Is gen.
orally admitted now that women
are more broadminded and toler-
ant. more efficient and better in
every way-for a certain amount
OF business experience. Equal
rights, with men to enter business
and to vote are part of woman's
modern freedom, and freedom
counts for progress and good.
The vote is a great power put
into woman's hands. Her respon-
sibility is to use it wisely, and a
girl cannot begin too early to
study economics, or politics, which
Is really the housekeeping of the
nation, in order to make best use

reading Ibsen, because he makes
you think. And whatever makes
us think is good for us" de-
elared a certain famous actress Of
my acquaintance when she came
upon a group of young girls of
her company excitedly discussing
'The Dolls House.
Voting intelligently makes
woman think clearly and logically,
and to that extent makes her
more interesting and charming as
well as more efficient.
The vote is good for women
because it is part of their freedom,
because it makes them think, and
because it gives them power to
bring about better conditions for
children and homes with honest

ing story:
"Once upon a time there was a
COW named Daisy. who said, !
must give lots and lots of milk to
Farmer Green So she gave milk
to Farmer Green and he said: ]
must give the milk to the pan.
Sc he gave the milk to the shining

so he gave the milk to the Separa-
tor. who said: i must hurry and
give all this milk TO the bottles.
And the bottles, each wearing
cunning round cardboard hat, said:
Il must hurry and give this milk
to the miIkman.' So the milkman
loaded them all in the white cart
and said: Il must hurry and give
all this milk to the little children
"Me, too?" inquired the tiny son,
on his mothers lap. "Of course"
replied mother. That's why the
COW was in such q hurry because
she wanted you to have the milk
in time for your breakfast" The
little boy was much interested in
the ''cow story" as he called it,
and at the next meal he picked
up his glass of milk, saying: Il
CHESS I'd better drink tnis or

Milk meant a whole series of in
