Women Work for Peace of Whole World International Relations Committee Engaged in Promoting Fellowship. BY JULIA C. HENDERSON. The women of the world are being .asked to Join hands for the promotion of peace and International good will. To this end a committee was appointed at the recent Chicago meeting of the council of the General Federation of Women's Clubs to be known as the International Relations Committee. Its work will be to promote good fellowship and better understanding between women of all countries. At this meeting greetings were sent to the women of Canada and to the "women of Japan with an invitation to them to send delegates to the bi-ennial meeting of American club women to be held at Chautauqua, New York in June. It Is interesting to note that one of the first activities of this new committee will be to lay plans for the observance on May 30th of an International Memorial day. Since the women of the nations are as one on this project It Is thought that the coming together In planning for such an observance will bring about a greater international unity. To the commltte was also left the planning for a “world peace postage-’’ I ' lrs - Horace Mann Towner of Washington, t). C., has been made the chairman or the committee. That the women of Canada are thinning along similar lines In establishing friendly relations between women is evidenced In a letter sent to club women of America asking if they will Join with Canadian women in an international rederation, whose object will be “to better woman’s condition on the farm, to bring town and country women in closer touch with each other and to do everything to make woman’s place a larger one and her life broader to the ends that she may be of greater use to herself and service to her community." The concerted action on the part of both of these organizations doubtless will bring about the much* desired union at an early date. Tt-.e purchase by the club women of the United States of a clnb home in TV asblngton will furnish an international headquarters, from which' much good to women and her interests. t r he world over doubtless will emanate through Ik the wise planning of this new lnternaAuonal relations committee.

I affiliated myself with the Democratic party firmly believing that the principles of that party were nearer my Ideals than any other.” Mrs. Lauensteln feels that if women want better ideals of government they must work to accomplish these ideals, particularly through the election of the right kind of officials. She believes that women should join a party and make their lufluenre felt. They must not expect miracles she says, but work bard for the reforms they want.

Daily Fashion Hints Ca V wot cV* By AGNES AYRES. Star in Paramount Picture*. Fabric hats aro good, excellent, but the French milliners are making a decided effort to turn the tide of favor In the direction of straw. The horsehair hat, known,as eriu. is used as a teasing first step In the direction of straw. I saw a short hacked, high crown, sailor of this materlul in one of the really good shops last week. It was brown and trimmed with a gaudy spray of scarlet carnations. Scarlet and flames seem still to be in high favor. The little hat at the upper corner of the sketch is of white organdy bound with scarlet velvet, a spray of scarlet velvet geraniums falling over on* ear from the slit in the brim. It was especially designed to wear with a dress of white crep* da china, made over scarlet chifton cloth. Tha lower hat is a sport* model, made of figured silk in Persian colorings and design, combined with plain pongee colored *llf of th* sam* weight and quality. Not only is a Persian design used for the silk but the crown of the hat is treated as a turban, the silk being draped and drawn tightly over the crown, tied at one side and falling lu points to the shoulder. Scarve* seem to be a feature of many of the Southern sport* hats, scarves that drip off the brim, in many ilnstanres spiashlly hand painted or adorned with applique.
Woman’s Rotary Club at Luncheon The weekly luncheon of # the Woman’* Rotary Club held yesterday In Parlor B of the Claypoel Hotel was addressed by Mis* May Louise Shipp, lecturer on current affairs who took for her subject "The Election of the New Pope,” in which she told of the proceedings by which this great head of the Roman Catholic Church Is chosen.

Had Bedrock Snlvely been a little more lenient with his spoiled, headstrong daughter, she probably would not have decided to elope with Carter RevenaJL But when she found tliat her father had employed detective* to watch her movement* and had even installed a dictograph to catch the trend of her conversation* with BAvenal, she decided to run away. In a wild drive over the mountains, th* machine In which Ethel and Kavenal were riding, break* down. The accident occurred In a lonely rood where bnt few peraont traveled, and tt was still a long way to the town where the elopers had planned to be married. A snow storm breaks. The pair finds a place of refuge In the cabin of a mountaineer who becomes Interested In the game th* two are playing, and takes eare of them over night. From here the story continue* to grow In interest. Bead each ln>st ailment. CHAPTER lll—Continued. “But we —I must go down tonight!" A flash of anger was crowding Ethel’s anxiety aside. “We’ll pay yon for yont old horse*. Yon can go down with ns to bring them back. We’ve got to go!” With steady fingers the stranger lighted the splinters and began building a fire upon tbe ash-strewn hearth. When he had laid several small sticks of wood upon the blaze and had adjusted them with his foot he fumbled a very black pipe from his pocket. “I’m headed Into the Devil’s Hole country for the winter. I’ve got to cross the range tomorrow or I can’t get in this fall. It’ll be anowing before morning." Ethel bit her lip and frowned. Then she turned to Ravenal. “Why don’t yon do something?" she demanded, "We’ve got to go tonight. Make him let ns have the horses." A suggestion of a smile crinkled the mountaineer’s eyes, ne finished poking tobacco into the black pipe and picked a blazing splinter from tbe fire. “If yon ain’t able to make me do anything. lady,” he said with almost a chuckle, “it’s a dead cinch no mere man can do it." Ethel’s face flamed. Then her lipa grew white and she turned to face Ravenal. “Aren’t yon going to do something. Carter? That was an insult!” she aald. Ravenal gave a queer, uneasy grin and looked doubtfully at the roan. “How about buying yonr horses?” he ; mumbled at last. “No. I don’t want you to think I’m nasty, but I can’t do It. But what’* all the fuss about? There* room In here for all of ns tonight—and somebody's snre to be going by tomoffow." “But we can’t—" Ethel looked helplessly about the time-wrecked room. “Oh. I never coold spend the night in inch a place!” Again the man at the fireplace almost smiled, and hi# steady eves, frankly scornful, searched the girl's face. “It'e a whole lot better than sleeping outside.” he femarked quietly. Then as tf~he felt a sudden sympathy for the girl, “It’s all right, lady. I’ve got plenty of grub and lots of bedding.” “Bnt we can't—" began Ethel vehemently. “Oh!" exclaimed the stranger with a sudden understanding "I see You're not a married couple. Well, I don’t see as you sheuld worry about that” He addressed Ravenal as if to relieve Ethel of thp embarrassment of discussing the matter. “We'll fix the lady np in tha bnnk and you and I can roll up here on the floor.” Ethel had no more to say Ravenal looked down toward the car and made a move In that direction. Then a thoughtful crease appeared between his eves and he studied tbe mountaineer furtively. “Yon can call me Pnell.” said the stranger with a sudden effort toward friendliness.- **l’m Just a fool trapper hiking in." CHAPTER IV. If he expected the others to meet him in th* introductory spirit ho was disappointed. Ethel slnmp*d wearily upon a box beside the fire. Ravenal walked down to the car after their grips Their boat began calmly to prepare anpprr With her chin In her enpped hands Ethel studied the man. She was acens tomed to a nervoua embarrassment on the part of the mountain inhabitants ■when in her presence, but there was nothing of embarrassment about this man. From his heavy lace boots to his worn little hat he was all calm soreness Suddenly Kthel was swept by a strange emotion. He was such a man as her father had heen twenty years ago. A hardy, nature loving mountaineer, who lived the wild life of the hills because he loved It. Mot ed by an accountable impulse, Ethel rose. "Mr. Snell—if I—would yon take ns on the city—if I asked you—as a favor]” He tnmed and looked into her eyes. She was conscious of an earnestness in his gaze that frightened her. Something of an elemental tenderness seemed to lurk in his strangely colored eyes. Then he shook his head slowly and turned hack to his cooking. “I don’t reckon I would,” he said shortly. Ravenal returned with their grips and
a bulky bundle of robes and blankets. “Whew!” he grumbled edging in beside the fire. “It’s getting awfully 'cold. I’m afraid It’s goitig to snow.” All at once It was dark. Snell produced several candles from one of his packs, and set them In their melted wax upon the mantel and upon the table. With hlg deliberate sureness he produced tin dishes and steel knives and forks, and aet the table. Then he dished up the fried potatoes, the warmed-up canned beans and the aromatic coffeo. “Unless you’re used to coffee at night,” he advised pleasantly, “I’d say to pass this up. It’s great stuff to keep a nerson thinking of his sins Instead 6f sleeping.” After the rather silent meal, Snell washed the dishes and put them away. Then he produced a number of blan rets and tossed them Into the lower bunk With a piece of baling wire he fastened a blanket screen across In front of the bunk. “There you are, lady,” he remarked with matter-of-fact carelssness. “You ■ can make up your bed to suit yourself. We’ll make a shakedown together on the floor.” Ravenal plainly showed his disgust at the thought of sleeping on the floor with a strange mountaineer. But he did not protest. Hs studied Snell through the haze of his cigarette smoke. After zome hesitation Ethel retired . behind her blanket curtain. Snell moved the table and dragged out an armful ot blankets. With sober care he spread them before the fire. “There,” he announced finally, “that’s a bed fit for a king. Roll in whenver you’re ready. I’m going out to get the animals into that old shed. It’s starting to rain.” "I say. Snell —Ravenal spoke with a sudden forced effort—“would you like to make a hundred dollar*?” "How’s that?” "Why—l—” he Jerked his head up with sudden bravado—“lf you’ll take this bed and move out to the shed—l’ll give you a hundred.” j Then the stranger really smiled. Hl* ! face fairly shone with a great relief. A I peculiar sneer curved his bearded lips. | "I thought that was it,” he said softly, as if fearful that his words would carry beyond the curtain. “No, I’m not moving out tonight. If It wasn’t that you’d sure freeze to death I’d ask you to move.’’ Ravenal started up angrily, then he subsided, with a furtive smirk “If you’re looking for a better price—’well, say how much?” The other stepped close to Rav*nal and his bine gray eyes burned into the ' young man. "You wouldn’t think well of my price,” he said. “But maybe I’ll tell you in the morning. Now, you better turn in while I tend the horses And—” Snell turned back from the door—“you better stick around that end of the room.” (To B* Continued.) .PUSS IN BOOTS JR. - fig DnvM C*v “ ' When Fuss Junior had finished his story he got up end stretched himself, and then he looked at th* little boy and said: “We muat be going now, for we have many miles to traveL” So the Blaekbtrd flapped his wings and Tom Thumb climbed up on Puss Junior s shoulder. “Good-by, little boy, good-by, little boy,” and our three email traveler* went out of the gate, leaving the little boy standing on the porch looking wistfully after them. “How do do,” said Puss as a small toad Jumped across the highway. “Creak,” said the toad, "I m hungry, I think. Today I’ve had nothing to eat ot to drink; I’ll crawl to a garden and Jump through the pales. And there I’ll dine nicely on slugs and on snails." “That’s an eay way to get one’s dinner," cried the Blackbird; I could eat a slug or s snail myself.’ The toad looked up at th# Blackbird and asked In an anx'lous tone; 'You don’t eat toada, do you?” “No, w don’t," laughed Puee Junior, tickling the toad with a atraw. “Hop along, Mr. Hoptoad, and get your dinner. You might ehow my friend, the Blackbird, a alug or two: he’s half starved, I imagine.” But before the toad had time to start off, a big frog Jumped up from ttbe side of the road. “Don’t you like fish?" asked the Frog. “When it’s cooked," said Tom. “But I don’t see much chance of fried fish. As I said before, everybody will got his dinner but me The Blackbird will dine ; on snails and slugs with Mr. Toad, and Puss Junfbr will feast on fish with you, while poor little Tom Thumb can suck his thumbs and look on."

I’ve been intending to come up and gee yon ever sine* you moved In, but I’ve had. a bad cold.” j "Won’t you come In?” asked Un, Hooper, though she was In the midst of i washing the breakfast dishes after the j children and Henry had gone. Mrs. Elkins, dressed in a neat street dress, came In, looked around curiously and then sat down as If she Intended tm make a call.

Hooper, seating herself opposite the visitor In the Morris chair, while she wondered if she had turned the j gas off In tbe klitcheu—“but none of ] them would do.” j “They wouldn’t!” exclaimed Mrs. Elj kins. “What was the matter with them ?* I "Well, In nearly every case the room* were too small,” replied Mrs. Hooper, j “and In one there was scarcely any light ! except In the living room.” I “Sounds as if you’d been living in the country,” said Mrs. Elkins. “W# think the houses and apartments In Indianapolis are as good as you’d find any where j in the country.” j “Oh I haven’t any doubt of it,” aald Mrs. Hooper apologetically, “bat I sups pose It Is because I’ve been used to so much light and air and apace that everything Ln a city seems crowded.” “Oh you’ll get used to It,” said the neighborly Mrs. Elkina “And If you'd like me to go out with you this afternoon or tomorrow and help yon with this house-hunting business I’d be very glad to do 1L It takes so much time just to find places when you don't know I the city.” “I should be very much obliged if it I wouldn’t be too much trouble for you jto come with me,” said Mrs. Hooper gratefully. “It wonld help me ao about neighborhoods—that is the really hard ! thing to decide.” “What do you mean—neighborhood*?” asked Mrs. Elkina. “Do yon mean a fashionable street?” “Oh no Indeed anything bnt that!” exclaimed Mrs. Hooper. “I couldn't afford a fashionable street I’m sure and besides I’m not a fashionable person.” “But you know It means • lot to Ure on the right street when yon move : to anew town," suggested Mr*. Elkina, 1 "that's why tn apartment is really tbe best place to live if you want to make a show. You can have a lot of atyle without it coating ao much as It does ln a house." "But I don’t want to make a show,” protested Mrs. Hooper. “I want to make a home something like w hare always been used to for my husband and chlU dren. "Well yon can’t live here like you did in the country,” warned Mra Elkina, “and if you want an easy time, that will give you some leisure to go to th# movies and downtown of an afternoon yon wont go burdening yonrself with a honae bnt you’ll take an apartment with a janitor and maid service and a dumb waiter and ’ all that.” ! "But I can’t afford all those things .even If I really wanted them,” aald Mra Hooper beginning to think of the passing i time and her unwashed dishes, j “Oh they don't cost any more ln the end than if yon try to hire all those things done on ytfur own account,” in- | slsted Mrs. Elkins. “But I haven’t made any provision ln I my budget for help,” began Mra Hooper,' and I kve to live within my allowance for operating expenses “Oh for goodness saks are yen one at those ‘budget bugs* we rand about," laugher Mrs Elkina The menus for tha three meals an Wednesday are: BREAK If A ST.
