It's Madame Secretary of Labor:
it's Miss Frances Perkins; it's Mrs.
Wilson: and now an elegantly edited
New York paper ventures headline

be meant for the honorable and gifted
Secretary of Labor was always called
Perkins" at college.
A most delightful editorial appeared
recently in an American newspaper,
headed, Light Against the Gloom. !"

It is a question If many people in
the East-outside of collectors, know
what Westward Ho" glass is. 1t Is
almost unique now. The wife OF the
Governor of Kansas, Mrs. Alfred M.
Landon, has made large collection
of this historic glass, perhaps the
largest in the United States.
No specimens of Westward Ho are
recalled in the National Museum here.
The pattern with its crouching In
dian, charging buffalo and fleeing deer
and its lone settlers cabin silhoutted
against pine covered mountains in
cool frosted glass, is typical OF the
early pioneer days of the West. Per-
haps in no other part of the country
is there so typical reproduction OF
the primitive life in the States. On
state occasions Mrs. Landon is said
to love to bring out her Westward
Ho glass and adorn her dining table.

edict that the American cocktail Is
