Both parties estimated that the
registration would total about 5000,
and this figure will be surpassed by
more than 100 when the final pre-
cinct is reported. Registrations from
Kempton after the first two days Of
registration were 66 Republicans, SO
Democrats, total 1855, which already
puts the county voting list at 8,098,
without figures for the final two days
of registration from there.
The totals show that the Republi-
cans have majority of practically
two to one. The Kempton list is not
expected to change that as that pre-
cinct is almost certain to be Demo-
cratic.
Only one other registration place,
district No. 9, had Democratic ma
jority. Democratic leaders estimated
that their registration would reach
$500. This figure has been surpassed.
Republican leaders estimated that
their registration would be approx
mately $500. This will hardly be
reached.

TABLELAND FAIR TO OPEN
In PITTSBURGH OCT. list
Talking Cow Obtained For One
of Unusual Features; Many
Prizes Will Be Awarded
TRUCKS TO TAKE EXHIBITS

The fifth annual eight-county fair of
the Allegheny Tableland will be held in
Gimbels Store, Pittsburgh, October
q to "a, inclusive.
One of the unusual features of this
fair will be the introduction of people
to the talking cow, the first time ever
exhibited in this area.
The cow is mechanical but life-like,
weighing 1854 pounds. Her milk man.
ufacturing processes are shown right
before the eyes of her audience. Fur
thermore she explains in considerable
detail just what food cows should
have to produce milk with the highest
butter fat content.
This milk factory" is the principal
exhibit furnished by the United States
Department of Agriculture as part of
the annual fair. Other exhibits COM
prise poultry and henhouse displays
proving rodent control pays; orchard
protection displays and continuous
motion picture showing the life of the
honey bee.
Also during the fair will be shown
live championship turkeys in realistic
barnyard displays, with eggs availa-
BILE for setting at ten dollars each or
six for fifty dollars.
The last days for entries to take part
in the fair is October Is. Many cash
prizes are being offered, but according
to E. J. Priddey, president of the Allie
gheny Tableland Council of the Pitts
burgh Chamber of Commerce. the most
important opportunity is the opening
of the Pittsburgh market to exhibitors.
Last year 100000 persons viewed
the exhibits, many of them placing
sizeable orders for produce with pro-
ducers of this section who were there
taking orders and exhibiting their pro-
ducts.
Those who have entered exhibits
have been notified the trucks will ar
rive from Pittsburgh to transport
their exhibits free of charge. All the
exhibitor is required to do is pack
exhibits carefully, deliver them to a
point which will be designated. Trucks
will pick up the merchandise and de-
liver it in Pittsburgh. A staff of deco
rators will arrange the exhibits in the
store preparatory to the opening of
the fair. Many Garrett county far
mers have participated in the fair in
previous years.
At meeting of the Oakland Unit
of the Allegheny Tableland Associa-
ton on Monday evening it was decided
to have a display there depicting this
section as a desirable place to spend
vacations. Deep Creek Lake, Oakland
and Mountain Lake Park and the in
terest they hold as recreational Sec
tions, will be included in the display.

year after year, with those for New
Haven. The Washington Winter curve
shows almost the same fluctuations for
hundred years. There is only one
marked break-the war years of 1917
and 1918-when the District had some
of the most severe Winter weather in
its history, while the temperatures in
New England were close to normal.
Such, by the way, has been the case
this year. It is one of those puzzling
variations which neteorologists can
not explain.
OTHER American records are not so
old, nor so reliable. as those for
Washington and New Haven. Mr..
Kincer has plotted scores Of them.
Almost invariably they show the same
general tendencies-with due allow.
ance being made for local variations.
Mr.. Kincer's curves demonstrate
only that weather does move in
spasmodic cycles. What goes up must
come down, but it may 60 up fast and
come down slowly, or vice versa. Sum-
mer always will follow Winter and a
warm period will always follow a cool
period after time lapse roughly
analogous to the particular kind Of
cycle one Is concerned about. It may
be SO years. 10 years. 100000 years.
The curves shed no light on why we
have cold Winters. They don't seem
to At into any consistent pattern.

Career Women in CONGRESS

That she is "scrapper" is evidenced
by the fact that not long ago her
Foreign Affairs Committee reported
favorably on the pending neutrality
bill. But she herself did not, declaring
emphatically that she did not approve
of its major clause, placing the power
to declare war in the hands of the
President; whereas under our Con-
stitution this is the proper job of Con.
gress and not the Nations Chief Ex-
ecutive.
Representative Virginia E. Jenckes
of Terra Haute, Ind. looks enough like
former President Woodrow Wilson to
be his sister. Yes. even to the pince
nez, prim and aloof manner and alert
eyes that gaze at you inquiringly.
She's the college professor type to the
core and employs publicity man. She
also maintains two girl stenographers
and they seem to be busy all the time.
Mrs. Jenckes takes a wholehearted
interest In patriotic activities and
farm relief and has been active in
woman's public work and politics since
about 1912. She represents a very
important district, the sixth, in In
diana, taking in the town of Terra
Haute and 10 counties with a total
population around 100000.
The Indiana Congresswoman has
one daughter, Miss Virginia Ray
Jenckes, and lives in a modest apart
ment in Washington. She was elected
to the Seventy-third Congress, defeat-
ing two men, one a Democrat and the
other a Republican, in the general
election. She was reelected to the
present Congress by a comfortable
majority.

A PORTRAIT in bas-relief Of
~ Chief Justice Charles Evans

placed on exhibition in the Corcoran
Gallery Of Art this week as a loan from
the Chief Justice.
It is large panel in plaster, with q

robe Of Office. The sculptor began it
in this city about q year ago, but fln-
ished it in his Summer studio in the

house at Lafayette College, Easton,
Pa, where 1t was lately ceremoniously
unveiled. Both 1t and the replica pre-.
sented Chief Justice and Mrs. Hughes
were given by the Lafayette Chapter

There Is an interesting story In con-
nection with this presentation. When
Charles Evans Hughes was q student
at Brown University. he. with five
other members Of the Delta Epsilon
Fraternity, went to Lafayette College
and instituted chapter there. That
was In 1885. Twenty years passed and
Mr.. Hughes had become Governor OF

Exhibit Here.

One Of the members of the Delta
Epsilon present on that memorable oc-
casion was young freshman named
Harry Lewis Raul destined to become
widely known as a sculptor. Most 1T.
tingly. he was chosen by the alumni to
model the portrait of the Chief Justice
to memorialize his generosity and at
tainments.
Harry Lewis Raul was born in Eas-
ton, Pa, but studied in New YORK and
Philadelphia under Elwell and under
Crafty. Among his most distinguished
works are "Old Glory" soldiers monu-
ment, West Chester, Pa; Julia Dyck-
man Andrus Memorial, Yonkers, N. Y;
war Mothers Memorial" Philadel-
phia; Christ the King" Loyola
House Retreat, Morristown, N. j.; Bar
ton Memorial Tablet, Berea, KY.
He has also modelled strong and i'm
pressive heads Of Lincoln, of Beethoven
and Of Dante, as well as numerous
imaginative or fanciful compositions
such as Light on the Sea-" Tears"
and others.
Mr.. Raul has been an active mem
ber Of the American Artists Profess
sional League and has done much to
promote, through local organizations,
the appreciation Of art. He Is stanch
believer in America and American
training for American artists.
The portrait Of the Chief Justice will
remain In view, in the room set aside
for the display Of American sculpture

But, after all, one has to return to
the conclusion that artistic as pho
tcgrapl1y may be and is, the camera
as a medium has many limitations,
that it can never actually compete
with painting or the graphic arts. Its
true function is undoubtedly as
witness to reality, something intimate
and personal, but never to be hung

There is, of course, prejudice against
post-mortem portraits which to an
extent is unreasonable-the great are

Junior League.
A LTHOUGH there are some inter-
esting prints in the exhibition of
photographs which opened the first
of this week in the Junior Leagues
new gallery. the show as whole is
not especially notable. Very little
originality or individuality is shown
and only few Of the prints have
decorative quality which is the dis
tinguishing mark of the new photog-
raphy Of today. In two or three in
stances effort has apparently been
made in this direction, but with futile
result-log ends, for instance, do not
make a picture or even pattern
unless actually designed. There are
some good portraits, which if not ef-
fective at distance, are intimate and
personal-such as "Toscanini," by
Arnold Genthe;; "The Surgeon" by DR..
Walter Boyd. and Van Vechten's por-
trait of Anna Roosevelt Boettiger." !"

Interest is added to this exhibition
by the inclusion of several paintings
made in New England, such as "Old

fit perfectly into the picture Of Colo

widespread good taste in architectural
design on the part of the builders.

liamsburg, the dream city of the New
World that was lost and dead, has
been brought back to life and greatly
reawakened-its life goes on in an
atmosphere made up in part of men,

doubtedly what Mr.. Brown wished to
manifest in his paintings and why
he has avoided too positive expression.

An interesting characteristic OF the
work of the early builders in Virginia
and farther South. as well as North,
was that the same care in building,
the same fine brick work, the same
well-considered design, were employed

as in family dwellings. This is evi-
