Female Motes Wanted, Avers Woman Writer Ida Clyde Clark Deplores Lack of Leadership Among Her Sex. By JULIA C. HENDERSON. In the current number of the Pictorial Review is an editorial by Ida Clyde Clarke entitled, “Wanted—A Female Moses.’’ Mrs. Clarke, who is a well known writer and worker among women and has studied her sex from various angles, deplores lack of leadership and concentration among women. Mrs. Clarke believes that a real leader lives among us, but we must find her. She said ‘‘there is no pioneering to be done, no more frontiers, we must si and where we are and do something about present day problems if they are ever to be any better.” She argues well as to the force and power that lies within the National Council of Women with its something like ten million members and the General Federation of Women's Clubs with its more than two million members and what might be accomplished through such bodies working in unison. If there could be developed a leader who could direct the efforts of these groups and concentrate their minds and hearts on a given object, she pointed out, the world might well take notice and know that there must be decisive victory over the object set out to be attained. While Mrsj Clarke asserts that the country is over-organized, she suggests, and with good reason, the following plan: “Why could we not have a council of presidents, who would go over the whole field of feminine endeavor, dispassionately decide which are the most pressing needs and concentrate all effort on these, apportioning to each organization that part of the work to which it is peculiarly fitted ?” That women's Interests are, and have been, too scattered, has been foreseen by all thinking women, but the way out of it has not as yet been found. Mrs. Clarke's suggestion may be the answer—at least. It is well worth trying. The thought brought out in the editorial In question has been discussed In city and State groups throughout Indi'ana time and again with no answer as j to how best to solve the problem of concentrated effort and concerted action, but women are only finding themselves in many ways and we doubt not that before many more years shall have passed there will be an awakening among women that will reveal them to themselves and their power, which at this time may be in a measure latent, will be revealed to the world. Having had many responsibilities throw upon them. It will take time to come to an ultimas 'neiusion as to what is best to advance their Interests. That they will find the “Female Moses” there is no doubt.

Industrious hands in many odd corners of the world have been tolling for many months in what has been almost a labor of love—the making of Princess Mary's wedding gown. Weavers in Brittany, spinners In Holland, silk threaders in Japan, lace makers in Belgium all have played their part in the creation of this marvelous tilmy billow on dainty satin and organdies. No Q(ieen of England, no Czarina or Empress ever wore to the altar a wedding gown as truly bea'ut.lful and as smartly modish.

Bobbed Hair Held Decent as Bustle CHICAGO, Feb. 28.—Many mammas and grandmas are wont to look upon the "frankly revealing knee-length skirt” of today with shocked sensibilities. But : have they forgotten the old-fashioned bustle and the "pull back" skirt? Miss Mabel Craig Stillman, of the 1111i nois Vigilance Society, points out the styles of today are no more dangerous to the morals of the young than the old hobj ble skirt, the bustle and the other affections of former years that were intended to emphasize the contours of the figure. “Flapping galoshes, bobbed hair, hid- ; den ears and skirts of sanitary length are merely Indications of a desire to conform," said Miss Stillman. “They are not symbols of moral depravity. The ■ young girl of today la morally O. K. and ! sound at heart.” In this connection Miss Marlon Talbot, dean of women at the University of | Chicago, recalls that when she went to college she wore a train. "Nothing could be more unhygienic,” she declared, i

LIEBER MAKES PLEA FOR MORE ARTINTEREST Deplores Lack of Progress Shown by City in Matters of Culture. Carl I.ieber. speaking for the John Herron Art Institute, at the meeting of the Woman’s Rotary Club, at the Claypool Hotel yesterday, declared it is the hope and aim of the board to influence the public to enjoy and profit more and more by what the institution has to offer. Mr. Lleber deplored, in the twentylive years sirice the John Herron bequest, and thirty years since the Art Association was organized, there had not been more progress in the work, but expressed utmost faith the Herron Art Institute will meet with greater support in the future than It has In the past. He expressed the hope Indianapolis might have a similar institution for the advancement and development of music.

Notes of Interest to Women

How business women should dress is open for much discussion these days. The consensus of opinion, as reflected In an article in “The Independent Woman’’ on the subject, Is the favored business costume Is to be no different than that worn by the conservative, well-dressed cosmopolite who always prefers to be 'lpeonspicuously dressed on the street. • * • Tae Woman’s Rotary Club of Evansville has a plan by which it manages to keep one young girl yearly in school who otherwise might have been forced to stop to earn her living before her education was completed. * * * Mrs. Maud Wood Park, president of the Baltimore League of Women Voters, has been Invited to Canada looking to the establishment of a like organization there. • • • With Governor Edwards of New Jersey coming out on a wet platform and the highest tribunal in New Jersey—the Court of Erros and Appeals-sottlng aside as unconstitutional the State prohibition enforcement law, the women of that State are preparing for a hard fight.

Thi/ableiThi/ablei By CONSTANCE CORNWALL

This story liingrs on a fight for the possession of the Hardcaster family jewels, worth a half million dollars. The gems were presented to Lady Banister, formerly Diana Richmond, by the Earl of Hardcaster, brother of Lord Banister, her husband, who was killed in action during the World War. Following the death of her husband, Diana returns to her old home in America, bringing the jewels with her. The Earl of Hardcaster having died since Diana’s return, a Spanish woman, who claims to be his widow, appears to demand the jewels. Threatened with arrest and exposure on a charge of theft, for having taken the gems out of England, Diana enlists the services of Lawrence Tilton, a successful lawyer and former guardian and admirer. Philip Morell, a student friend of Tom Richmond is suspected of having some connection with the Spanish woman in her efforts to obtain the gems. CHAPTER Vll—Continued When he could stand It no longer, he returned to the room and approached the couple with decided strides. Di was sitting on the piano stool with her back to the keys, admiring an unusually fine ruby in Morelly’s ring, while he fondled or teased the Pekinese pet. “You do not understand love, Lady Banister,” he heard Morell say, as he came up to them. Larry was already irritated, but something in the other man’s voice made him furious, without at least knowing what had prompted the words. “You may not be aware of it, Mr. Morell,” he said curtly, “but your words are an insult to Lady Banister.” Morell drew himself up stiffly. “I don’t understand you,” he returned clldly. “Frankly, I didn’t expect you would, ’’ Larry said tartly. “In America it is understood that a woman loves her husband or she wouldn't marry him. To say that she doesn’t Is an insult.” Di looked quickly from one to the other. She had no idea of aUowing the men to quarrel. “I brought that upon myself, Larry,” she admitted frankly, “by saying that I love Fill more than anyth*ng in the world, which, of course, you know isn’t true, and a foolish remark into the bargain.” She addressed her words to Larry, but her eyes were fixed on Morell while she was speaking. Morell glanced from one to the other, and either the tenderness in Dl’s eyes or the severity in Larry’s decided him. “If I have given offense, I humbly apologize.” he said, looking not at 1)1 but at Tilton, and speaking in cold even tones. “You are evidently unaware, Mr. Tilton, that I have lived In America most of my life and know its customs. I merely answered a foolish remrfrk foolishly.” “You surprise me,” Larry said, looking squarely Into other man’s eyes. “My Impression was that you had only been here a short time.” “Here comes Tom,” Di cut in briskly, satisfying herself at the same time that her mother was still dozing at the other end of the room. "Poor boy, he has been closeted with that musty old coach for two mortal hours. Did you think to ask him, Tom, how many sides there are to a plum pudding? I heard of a man who failed in his exams because he couldn't answer that question.” “Nonsense,” Tom grumbled, “they were spoofing you.” Larry was uncomfortable for the rest of the evening. He felt he had been foolishly outspoken. He was altogether dissatisfied with the outcome of the Incident with Morell. Although Philip had relaxed from the rather haughty manner he had maintained for a little while, and seemed to be conciliatory, Larry still felt that In a way the other man had the advantage.

He left early with a promise to ride out the next day as soon as he received replies to his cables to the Earl of Hardcaster. He also promised himself that win or lose, ne would propose to Di and learn his fa'e at once. A month elapsed and still Larry had not spoken to Dl. He saw her frequently, bus it always happened that whenever she gave him the slighest encouragement to hope for favorable answer some one was sure to be In the way. Try how he would he couldn’t get her alone. The only time that he and Di found themselves without company was always when Larry was smarting under some real or fancied slight from Di. At these ■times he wold measure his qualifications with Philip’s—as far as Larry knew Tom’s friend was his only rival—and would find himself hopelessly wanting.” Morell's wealth, for instance; Di evidently cared for such things or she wouldn’t have clung so persistenly to her late husband’s heirlooms. To be sure, that part of Di’s actions had turned out all right. The new Earl had cabled his indignation at what he termed libelous outrage, perpetated by the Spanish widow. He had been 111 at the time, he wrote later, and knew nothing whatever of the sensational report until some time after. The Earl’s lawyer had said In a confidential letter to Tilton, that as the present Earl was the last of his line he could will the gems to whomsoever he pleased. As Lady Banister was a great fnvorlte with him there was good reason to suppose that the heirlooms would be left to her. But as there would probably be some conditions, the lawyer urged the return of the collection to England

until they should be willed to Lady Ban- j lster in due form. At present, however, Di had not seen , fit to fallow the EngUsh lawyer's advice, i And what worried Larry still more was her willful Insistence upon keeping the box with Its precious contents In her | mother’s bungalow at Belden. Larry’s fortune, which he had consid- ( ered for some time quite ample, comP ired to a South American nabob’s pa.cd Into insignificance. Then again, Morell, although he had not been truthful about his age, was still years younger than the lawyer. There wts another thing, perhaps not of serious Importance. Although Lai ry had fine teeth they didn’t gleam through a military mustache every time he laughed. There was still another point of contract. He was as tall as Morell, but alas, he was a trifle inclined to corpulence, and Morell was sleek as a hound, and as alert. When he felt hopelessly depressed, Larry believed that the younger man had stormed Di’s heart with his good looks, and she had surrendered. Since that first night the two men had never clashed. Their greetings were polite, but a close observer would have seen that their glances were not friendly. ' Although Larry was frank with himself in admitting that he was jealous, he also insisted that aside from that he had always mistrusted the man. At first it was on Tom’s account, and now he could not rid himself of the suspicion that perhaps Morell’s father was not a “nabob.” Who was to know that the young man, who had nothing to recommend him but hi3 good looks and plausible i story, was not planning to spend the | generous pension the British government had settled on DI, to say nothing of the j five hundred thousand dollars’ worth of i

gems? While Larry was vacillating between spasms of Indecision and resolution Di was inscrutable. There were times when Larry was expected at Belden that she would be seen leaning against a tall sycamore tree a couple of hundred feet from the house, gazing up the road by which he would come. But he no sooner arrived than she would appear more than ever Interested lu Morell. Larry was keenly observant of her moods but he was quite unable to solve them. He noticed, however, that while Di would unblushingly coquette with Morell in his presence, the few times that she relaxed, or allowed Larry to drop into the slightest change to tenderness, Morell was never present. He even fancied, upon one occasion, whei} Morel] came upon them suddenly, that Di turned pale and looked anxious. Since her first visit, Di had made several trips to Larry’s office, but true to her belief that a lawyer’s office was only for the discussion of disagreeable subjects, she was always quite unapproachable. Sometimes after their legal conferences she would let Larry take her to luncheon. Then Tom and Morell had a disagreeable habit of calling for DI just when he was preparing to take her home.

PUSS IN BOOTS, JR.

By DAVID CORY. “Now, let me think for a moment,” said Puss Junior, slowly curling his whiskers, while th little man whose bullets were made of lead waited Impatiently for him to continue. It> strange how one gets confused,” said Puss. “Do you remember what happened next?” he asked, turning to little Tom Thumb, who was so excited over the story that had Puss looked at him a moment longer, he would have known that Tom had never heard it before. “No, of course I don’t,” said Tom. “Hurry, Puss dear, I want to hear what happened to Gretel and her brother. “Oh, yes," said Puss, “as soon as the little owl told us that her brother Hansel was shut up In the stable, I made up my mind to rescue both children from the wicked witch. She didn’t notice that the little Owl was whispering to me, for she was busy making bread. Presently she said, Gretel, see If the oven is hot.”

“I'm not sure,’ said the child, crying bitterly, and then the old witch gave her a slap and opened the oven door herself, and, as she leaned to look in, I gave her a push. In she went, head first, and, quick as a wink, I slammed the door shut and fastened it tight. Then Gretel and I unlocked the stable door and freed her brother. “Cap you get home all right?” X asked them. “Yes, answered Gretel, “for on our way here we dropped little white stones, and we can follow them back until we reach the edge of the forest.” and then they hurried away after hugging me and saying how much they appreciated all I had done for them. “Well, well, well,” said the little old man, looking at Puss Junior with great admiration, you certainly are a brave cat. I'm glad to have met you, for that was a fine story you told, and It shows you are a brave and kind animal." “Os course he is," cried little Tom Thumb. “Didn’t he rescue me from the inouse-trap in which I was imprisoned by the king’s baker? “What,” cried the little old min, did he do that?” "Yes, indeed,” answered Tom Thumb, “and if you and like to hear the story, I will tell it to you myself.” But Puss Junior was so modest that he refused to hear more about himself. And next time you shall hear what happened after that.—Copyright, 1922, David Cory. (To Be Continued.)

The Hoopers Tell How Five Live on a Limited Income [The Hoopers, an average American family of live, living in a suburban town, on a limited income, will tell the readers of the Daily Times how the many present-day problems of the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs.* Hooper has evolved and found practicaL Follow them daily iu an interesting review of their home life and learn to metM the conditions of the high coat of\ living with them.J \ True to her promise of getting down to schedule in the matter of her housexvork. Mis. Hooper had gone about yesterday with her notebook making entries as to the still existing needs of each individual room, now that all the furniture she had bought and everything that had come with them from Mayfield was in place. In the inspection book was also jotted down the many odd Jobs that must fall to the lot of Roger and Mr. Hooper, so that no money should be expended unnecessarily for help or labor. With the exception of the small rugs in the bedroom and one in the living room the floors were uncarpetel, but as they were in excellent condition and had been newly done over they were not difficult to keep clean. It took a good dead of time to go oter them, however, and when Mrs. Hooper finally went down to the laundry this morning to begin her washing she found she was at least an hour and a half later than she had ever been in Mayfield. It was very evideut that some sort of rearrangement of her old-time schedule would be necessary. There was no doubt that the arrangement of the house and its present equipment made a much more time consuming process of keeping it in order than had been the case in Mayfield. She had an unusually big wash but the tru3ty washing machine turned out the extra “loads” in record time and while it was well into the afternoon before the last piece of wearing apparel was on the line she wasn’t nearly as tired as might have been supposed from looking at the number of garments flying on the line in the breeze. It was the first real washing that had been done since she had moved in. On each previous Tuesday during the month she had washed out a few pieces at a time, right after breakfast and they were usually rolled up ready to Iron before the chilaen came in to luncheon. The sheets she had sent to the laundry and had included the cost of washing them in her operating expenses. It was for this reason that Helen and Roger had not before seen any such display of family wash.

Helen came tumbling in the front doo* at lunch time and raced through the hall and dining room to the kitchen where Mrs. Hooper was arranging their | luncheon. ■ "Helen,” Mrs. Hooper began, “haven’t I told you not to come in the front | door and rush through the house. Go around to the back door. You have j plenty of time.” “But only people in the country go in the back door,” protested Helen, “in the ; clt y the family always go in the front door. I’ve noticed that much since I’ve been living on this street.” “Well, I declare J" exclaimed Mr*. Hooper in the annoyed tone that Helen's remarks often provoked, “what other nonsense will you get into your head, I wonder?” “If you all trail through th* house every time you come In from or. side It will add to my work of keeping those floors clean and I don’t intend to let you do It.” Helen's face was flushed and she looked as if she was on the verge of tears as she burst out shrilly: “And all thoee awi ful clothes on the line —they look just—--1 disgraceful 1” “Helen!” exclaimed her mother In * shocked voice. “One would think this was the first time you’d ever setn the j family washing on the clothesline. What’* I wrong with it now?” Roger had come In the kitchen door nnd stood with his back to It, watchi: g j his mother and Helen. ! “Well I don’t care,” sputtered the child, ! “no one on this street hangs out tbe wash ! that way. They send It to tbe laundry.•, “What if they do?” inquired Mrs. Hooper coolly. “It Isn’t any of out business what our neighbors do about their washing and It certainly shouldn't bother them If 1 do mine at home.” “But It looks like the dickens mother." said Roger weakly, rather ashamed ot his protest but sympathizing with Helen in her Ideas as to what was citified. “Oh you children are too i.bsuro," said Mrs. Hooper impatiently as she carried a tray into the dining room as Henry made his appearance. The menus for the three meal* ok Wednesday are: BREAKFAST. Apple Sauce Cereal Cinnamon Toast Scrambled Egg* Coffee LUNCHEON. Minced Meat on Toast Vegetable Salad Bread and Butter Quince Jam Cocoa DINNER. Vegetable Soup Creamed Codfish Boiled Onions, Butter Sauce. Boiled Potatoes Pickled Beets Banna Layer Cake NOODLES.

Unroll each slice; shake them out over the board and let dry. Add to consomme or beef broth; simmer twenty minutes. A sprinkling of finely chopped parsley Is considered an addition to the soup or when noodles ar* served as a vegtable.
