~ ENATE MAJORITY LEADER
X ALBEN w. BARKLEY had
some interesting comments to
~ make with respect to the 1910
campaign in an interview with the
writer yesterday. For one thing, Sem
ator Barkley stated the Republican
party cannot hope to be anything
but "a mere party. Of opposition" un-
less it presents a definite, constructive
and aggressive platform to the voters
Of this country in the next election.
THE American people have grown
accustomed to action" Senator Bark
ley said, "and will not be satisfied
to support any candidate whose sole
bid for approval is his criticism Of or
opposition to the other party's prin-
ciples. The Republican party, As now
constituted, is made up Of remnants
of that reactionism which was re-
sponsible for party split in 1912 and
the detection Of large numbers
throughout the country. They can
not hope to secure q sIfhcient num-
ber Of adherents simply by pursuing
policies Of opposition. If they persist
in so doing, they will never be more
than the party of opposition"
In answer to an inquiry as to
whether in his opinion the next DEM
ocratic presidential candidate would
be a liberal or would represent the
conservative Southern wing, Senator
Barkley replied: THE Democratic
party, I believe, should set Is its goal
and objective the Advancement Of
liberalism. Even from the time Of
Jefferson the party has been dis
tinguished for its liberal tendencies
and 1t should proceed along liberal

Questioned about the probable pro-

ate leader stated that while 1t was
impossible to predict with any de-

that agricultural legislation, which
we must consider" would form part Of
it, also reorganization legislation and
perhaps tax legislation There

that the budget be balanced by 1888"
IN THE opinion Of Senator Barkley,
the business men of this country
will make no definite effort to re
trench. in anticipation of any change
in the political complexion in 1910.
80 far as I have been able to OBJ
serve" he commented, "the whole
tendency of American business Is to
60 forward, and while frequently
there Is opposition to legislation, such
opposition does not anecc the general
trend. Business moves ahead despite
1t. The general condition Of the coun-
try depends upon more far-reaching
factors than objection to specific leg
islation."
While the new Senate leader ex-
presses the. opinion that short ses-
sions Of Congress are desirable" he
makes it clear that II any pressing

Throughout the length

tern of perfect vacations" Every
, day, endless streams of pleasure bound
Z motorists flow over a vast network
. of highways Mountain and seaside
resorts are jammed with frolicking
throngs and steamship passages are
: booked far in advance. In fact, travel
reports give the impression there has
. been a wholesale exodus Of citizens
from every city and hamlet on this
side of the North Pole But this is
not so; at least, not here in the Ma
tons Capital.
Many Washingtonians deliberately
ore spending vacations "in their own
backyards." So. with this fact in
mind. Uncle Sam has issued novel
holiday schedule for the local stay-at-
homes. Designed to give Capital folk
of all ages the greatest amount of
pleasure at the least possible expense,
the tWo-Week vacation program fea-
lures outdoor recreation and ranges in
activities from golf to dancing and
polo games to band concerts.
Although fresh off the presses of the
National Park Service, the schedule is
much in demand. Already, thousands
of requests for the bulletins have been
filled. Visitors also find that the pro-
gram neatly fits in with their sight
seeing scheme of things. Surprising
to say, prospective Washington tour
lists from as far as New England. the
Midwest and Far South have sent for

And the park official is right!
in THE interest Of the "stay-at-
home nd-ike-it' science, this
writer joined a Washington family
who chose to spend their leisure days
discovering their own home town. We
visited many out-of-the-way spots of
unsuspected and rare beauty-spots
viewed by few persons, even lifelong
residents. All of us, from elders down
to youngsters, found diversions to
please individual fancies. There was
never a dull moment, proving the
scope Of the schedules suggestions.
For those who wish to tread in our
happy footsteps here's how 1t is done,
as set forth in the following day-by-
day program offered by the National
Park Service:
First day, Monday morning-Golf

that he learned q great deal about

Let deodorant Cor an anti-per- spirant) top the list of beauty prep arations you intend to buy before Easter. Don't put anything ahead of equipment to keep you dainty.
 There are various types, ranging from deodorant creams of vanishing cream consistency (which eliminate odors but do not check the natural flow of perspiration) to anti-per- spirant liquids and creams that ab- solutely prevent any moisture under arms. The latter are to be used ac- cording to directions.
 When putting on any kind of liquid anit-perspirant, wash under arms, apply the preparation, let dry thoroughly, then rinse of. It will not irritate skin or ilijure clothing if used this way.
 Get into the habit of being im- maculate from head to foot. A daily bath, fresh underwear and stockings every morning. suits and dresses clean and carefully pressed, use of deodorants-these things are most important.
 It is quite true that tine fact you have little money to spend on clothes and cosmetics need not keep you from looking neat and trim. Two dresses. with a change Of neck wear and accessories for one Ol the, are adequate if both always are clean and unwrInkled.
 Shampoo hair once week aud brush it every night. Have or give
