That was all there was to that story
but the woman who was in the little
confidence paid no attention to the
next yarns. She was too taken up with
thinking thing like this:
When you come across a gold star

because OF the many activities on the
program for Easter week, but on April
8 the club will have as its honor guest
lister Of the Irish Free State, who Will
discuss the economic development OF
Ireland.
MEMBERS of the National Womans
~ Party are congratulating them
selves upon their good fortune In OBJ
tanning another historic building to
replace the "Old Brick Capitol" as their
national headquarters, the new club
home being the former residence Of
Senator Porter II. Dale, at Second and
B streets northeast. The feminists plan
to take possession early In May.
According to Capital historians, the
Dale house is one of the Oldest IN
Washington and the Oldest on Capitol
Hill. having been built In l772 by Lord
Baltimore for his daughter. This ante
dates the selection of Washington as the
site for the National Capital by IL
wears. It was damaged by fire during
the march of the British on Washington
in 1914, but no serious damage was
done.
Senator Dale has owned the property
since 1922 and the Womar's Party has
purchased it from him, the bill OF sale
having been drawn up last week by
Mrs Burnita Shelton Matthews, attor-
ney for the organization, and signed
on behalf of the group by Mrs. o. II. Z.
Belmont, national president, who pre-
scented the present headquarters 70 the
Woman's Party a number Of years ago.
In contemplating removal from tneE
old quarters, the feminists had re-
GREETED not only the passing OF the
historic old building which they had
hoped to retain. but the loss Of their
Charming garden. where they have en-
tertained so many times during the
Spring and Summer season. Happily,
In the selection of their new national
home they have been able to secure
another garden which is quite as re-
markable for its beauty. although
not. perhaps, so much so for its MIS-
torical significance. The garden at the
new headquarters contains approx
mately 500 rose bushes, which turn the
SPOT into q rose bower of more than
several thousand blossoms In the sum-
mertime.

Although. the short session is pri-
marily for farm relief" said Mabel Yer
non, national executive secretary, dis
cussipg the matter, "the issue Of equal
opportunities for women will always be
foremost in the interests Of women un-
til these opportunities are guaranteed.
and we will not cease in our efforts
until that guarantee is made"

Writes From California

Editor Democrat In response
to request to write when we re-
turned from our visit in Ohio,-
our native state, would say we ap-
preciated very much the kindly re-
ception received from friends and
acquaintances, as well as our loved
ones. However, we regret that our
time could not be extended, so as to
prolong the visit. We noticed many
changes after vacation Of nine
years; many have passed out, and
their genial greetings Of former
times have ceased. But the eternal
hope of Immortality tells us they
had very pleasant time returning
Four days and nights seem long
time to be on the train and if it
were not for the silly, ludicrous in
cidents that occur to enliven the
time, travelling would become very
monOtonous.
The scenery, however, is inter
esting-not perhaps for the beauty
it presents, but rather for it's unique
ness, each locality having its pecul-
iarities, different in formation, diff
ferent in general appearance; al
ways presenting the vastness of its
construction, and leaving the i'm
preston that it has no duplicate
anywhere in the universe.
Passing through Flagstaff, Ariz.,
1850 feet altitude, the ground was
white with snow, the atmosphere
quite cold, yet beautiful sight as
the snow sifted down through the
green foliage of the pines. In a

MIA border, where it is hotter than

Record Attendance At Farmers
Institutes

Record Attendance At Farmers
Institutes
D Beginning Oct. %, an institute
has been in progress somewhere IN
Morgan county every day except
Sunday From attendance records,
as made out by the secretary of the
institute, the total attendance at
each session reached the record
number of slightly over 1000. Last
year the total attendance shows
slightly over 5000.
These farmers Institutes held
under direction of the county exten-
sion service are powerful factor
in lettering community and agricul-
tural life. There are still few
communities in the county which
could we'll afford to have regular
Institutes, but due to inability of
the people in these communities to
get together for a community bet
terment, repeated efforts to start
Institutes in these points have fail
ed.
tionally fortunate this year in hav-
ing for all their independent work,
two very fine speakers, and an eff
fort is being made now by the
county agent to secure the SER
vices of two more outstanding
speakers for all of the Independent
work next year. Announcement OF
all the speakers will be made in the
near future.
