ATTACK VIEWS OF LADY ASQUITH INRESOLUTION W. C. T. V. Members Condemn Practice of Bringing Foreigners Hereto Speak. . -A feature of the afternoon program of the W. C. T. U. Institute was a program given by the children of the Loyal Temperance Legion. There were five of these organizations represented, each named for a W. C. T. U. leader. Miss Senora Byrd Pruden brought nine of her little foreign pupils to this meeting. The grim determination on the faces of these children showed that they were ready to be up and fighting against the liquor and tobacco habits. Impressive yells and songs against these two evils were given. The Kev. F. G. Greyer spoke on “The Growing Menace of Tobacco,” using the different names of cigarettes as object lessons of what lobacco Is d<ing to America and wbaf it Is trying to do to the already dow-trodden China. He said he had been told that the difference between a trust company and a corporation was that the trust company did not have a soul while the corporation did, and using this definition, he said that sure’y the American Tobacco corporations’ soul had turned to a gizzard and then to whetstone, and that upon this whetstone he was sharpening his knife to fight this big evil. The subject of Lady Asquith arose again In the afternoon session, and a committee, consisting of Mrs. G. A. Barkham. Mrs. Phillip Zoercher and Mrs. A. E. Butler, was appointed to draw up resolutions agatnst bringing foreign women to our country to speak on subjects that they do not understand. The following resolution was drafted: “Whereas, It has come to our knowledge that Lady Margot Asquith of Eng-' land appeared ,Jn this city on March 26 at the Murat Theater under the auspices of the Woman's Department Club of Indianapolis, and "Whereas, Lady Asqnith, in the course of her lecture, made the statement that the American legislation is entirely too stringent, and that the English people would not for one minnte indorse our rigid laws: condemned In strong terms the Volstead act, and in other words and expressions criticised American laws and advocated lax enforcement generally ; “Therefore, be it resolved that the Marion County W. C. T. TJ., -in institute assembled, condemn the practice of bringing foreigners who neither understand and are not in sympathy with our American Institutions, into our j country who spread propaganda against the enactment and enforcement of out 1 laws.” - I Mrs. Elizabeth E. Stanley, State pres!- ; dent of the W. C. T. U., presided at the Installation of the new chapter of the W. C. T. C. at the Edgewood M. E. Church. This organization asked ad- ] mission at the last meeting of the Cen- j trai W. C. T. U. A delegation of W. C. T. TT. workers | accompanied Mrs. Elizabeth Stanley,] State president, to Edgewood Wednesday j night and greeted the workers at the: Mctboulst Church. Mrs. Stanley said, In j part: *’l learned when a child that booze srtoiild be locked np Instead of the drinker. The wonder Is that people have stood for it as long as they did. The wets do not need to think that we are going to lay down our arms now, for the fight will keep up until the liquor men surrender. The wets are trying to ; tell us now that we took snap Judgment on them, but It, doesn't look like It when we have labored for nearly fifty years with such great leaders as Neal Dow and Francis Willard, who gave their lives for the cause, and with our prohibition campaign on In twenty-three countries, we,haven’t time to be discouraged. If the people do not want to stand by our Constitution let them go back to the land they came from. America never would have fed the world during the late war if the country hadn't been dry. Our membership campaign Is.on and we will; match the anti-prohibition organization, member for member, and vote for vote.”

Passage of his bill, Johnson said, would cause States and cities to take similar action. t

His Tiews caused Miss Alice Robertson, Oklahoma, the only woman member of to rise in defense of woman's right to smoke. “Let women smoke if they want too,” Miss Robertson said. “It's Just a* matter of taste —and they have just as much right to smoke as the men.” "Cigarette smoking by women is one of the most degrading habits ever started,’’ Johnson said. “It's as bad as liquor, and maybe worse.” “They argue smoking Is as b'nd as drinking liquor.’’ Miss Robertson said, “but they have yet to show a ease where a man smokes two or threo cigarettes and goes home on a Jag and Inurders two or three of hhs. family.

Author and Artist Fight Fist Duel as Feud Result Love-Making in Community Play Kindles Jealousy of Henry Leon Wilson.

CARMEL, Cal., March 30.—The colony of authors and artists here was startled today with publication of details of a hand-rt>-hand duel fought by Harry Leon Wilson, famous author, and Theodore M. Criley, wealthy landscape painter, as the outcome of a sued starting with the production of a community play six months ago. y On a high cliff overlooking the sea In the early turning a few days ago, According to The reports current here, Wilson, a man of 55 and weighing about IS3 pounds, met Criley, 45, , and weighing about 153, in primitive conflict. Seconds attended the men, it is said, and. stripped to the- waist, they battled until, Criley had scored fonr knockdowns... BOTH FOFGHT IN THEIR GLOVES. Wi'son fought, according to the reports, until completely exhausted. The mem wore thin riding gloves on their hands. Both were badly battered. It Is reported Wilson’s first blow nearly closed the left eye of the landscape artist. The feud between the two men was well known here In the local colony. Last fall the open air theater, a community affair, presented "Pomander Walk," a romantic play. Mrs. Wilson

But I know real babies don’t Ilk* It. “I don’t believe in prohibiting anything unless It Is a menace, and I don’t consider women smoking a menace.” Representative Volstead, Minnesota, father of the prohibition law, Indicated he would not support a measure to make women cut out smoking. ”H—l, let ’em smoke," said “Uncle Joe" Cannon. ”My mother used to smoke. Nearly all the women did down in North Carolina, where she was bom and raised.” /

was chosen for the role of heroine of the play and Criley played opposite her as hero. Wilson Is said to have become Jealous and this later fanned Itself Into bitter enmity. STRUGGLE CLASSIC FROM PHYSICAL STANDPOINT. According to all reports here the early morning struggle between the two men was a classic from the standpoint of physical battling. The affair was handled In approved duelling fashion. The seconds handled all details between the two men and paced off the sod-covered ring. There were “rounds’’ only when a knock down was scored. Wilson recently came back from a trip to Hawaii. According to reports here he was In training during bis stay at Honolulu and was In fine physical trim for the encounter. Wilson. It is understood, first sent a verbal challenge to Crliey. Criley replied In conciliatory spirit, but agreeing to meet Wilson alone or with witnesses In any manner be wished. Wilson lost no time replying, stating that as soon as he could enlist the services of his seconds, they would arrange the meeting. . . SCENE ROMANTIC AS ENCOUNTER. The scene of thd encounter Is as romantic as the affair In which the men were engaged. It Is a grass-covered tlade on a high point known as Yankee Point and so isolated that the men were safe from all interference. Wilson Is widely known for his writings, both in magazines and books. Many of his characters are of tMe outdoor type. “liuggles of Red Cap" and his “Ma" Pettingiil stories brought him fame. Both men have been In retirement since the struggle. Despite the bitter physical encounter the feud Is not settled. According to reports Wilson’s last words to Criley after the battle were, “You win this time, but I've just begun.” Criley Is reported to consider the whole thing “schoolboy stuff.” HEII HAIR TURNED GREEN.

Ours had seemed a sane and reasonable, If advanced and futurist form of marriage while we were dlscussiiy; It. But put to the test, I discovered that my brilliant scheme had Its limitations. Os course X trusted Jack Implicitly. I believed that he had married me because he wanted me more than any other woman to wear his namo nnd to share his fortune. “For better, for worse,” And I had married him because I had preferred the worst of life with him.

And Jack didn’t want me to. I reminded myself once moro that my husband and I wore to be as free as If wo were unmarried In our relations with other men and women. And if Jack stopped loving me. he was to toll me. And I was not to wall and cling. That, detail was to work both ways. Jack believed In my honor as I believed In his. The theory seemed flawless. Nevertheless, as a bride of a month, X did not earo to go with Bart Elliot to the Playhouse that evening.

SISTER MARY’S KITCHEN Broiled Fish Dishes Without the ‘Fishy 5 Taste

RY broiling small fish and fish steaks. The broiled fish is quite a different thing from the fried variety. Br o 1 led fish is dry and not quiet so “fishy" as fried. And 1f you must fry fish use the deep fat method rather than tne frying pan. > If you broil over a wood or coni

fire the fire must be “clear.” This means a living betfsof coals without flame, but very hot. If you broil Under the gas flamo use the same broiler that Is used over a fire. It's almost impossible to turn cither fish steaks' or small split fish wtthout breaking If the regular gas equipment Is used. Always rub the wire of the broiler well with oil before putting In the fish. BROILED FRESH COD STEAKS. Have the steaks cut from one-half to three fourths of an, Inch thick. Wash In cold water anil dry between towels. Put In an oiled broiler and broil ten minutes on one side, turn and broil ten minutes on the other side. Remove from broiler to a hot platter, sprinkle with salt and pepr’r Rnd spread lightly with butter. Garn. vi*h slices of lemon and serve. The fish divides In large dry flakes and is most delicious. BROILED BLUB Hilt. .Split fish down the middle and let stand In strong salt water for fifteen minutes. Drain and dry between towels. Put in a well oiled broiler and broil first on the flesh side, then turn and broil on the skin side. Broil about twenty minutes. Remove to hot platter, garnish with parsley, sprinkle with salt and pepper and pour over a little melted butter. Serve with scalloped potatoes. , Halibut steaks are broiled the same way cod steaks are. Or halibut may be cut In a thick slice, two or three inches thick, anti baked wi|h iniik. This is a nice fish dish for company. HALIBUT BAKED WITH MVLK.

Dr. Bishop’j Talks

By I)It. K. H. BISUOI*.

ANY a city has murdered thousands of its citizens by supplying them with impure drinking water. The water you drink ma y look clear and sparkling, may taste refreshing when you drink’ it, and yet may contain the deadliest germs of disease. Following instal-

lation of water filters and adoption of other means of purifying city water, death rates from typhoid and dysentery always have fallen remarkably. In a big city the water supply Is regularly inspected by bacteriologists, people trained in the special work of testing the purity of the water. Accordingly, It Is not these days very dangerous to drink water cut of the faucet. When special pollution of the water supply occurs the public Is supposed to be notified at once by the authorities, so that they may take precautions. Greater caution is usually required In the country and In small cities where water Is not regularly Inspected and where, there Is any uncertainty regarding its purity. In such ease the water should be either boiled or filtered or chemically purified with chlorinated lime under a chemist’s direction. The domestic filter as ordinarily used has a limited sanitary value. If the water Is Infected, reliance should not be placed upon any household filter operated 1n the usual way. Bacteria, as typhoid. may often grow through the walls of a filter. When wafer Is not infected, but muddy, household filters are serviceable In rendering It clear. To be really sure, however, that the water yon drink will not cause sickness and possibly death, you would better boil it and play safe.

MRS. BEARDSLEY MAY CONTINUE LEAGUE/S HEAD Friends Declare Her Record Assures Retention for Years. The name of Mrs. A. H. Beardsley of Elkhart Is uppermost In the minds of members of the Indiana League of Women Voters in connection with (he State convention, to be held in Lafayette, May 9-11, In reference to leadership for the 1 coming year. Mrs. Beardsley has not returned from the Mediterranean, where she has been making a trip with her husband, State Senator Beardsley. It is not known whether she will consent to be a candidate for re-election, but her friends say the achievements of the organization d’uTing the two years of her presi. dency will assure her the support of the convention delegates if she cares for the office again. Until her attitude is known it is probable that no other candid*te for the office will be talked of. Mrs. Beardsley took office in May. 1920, at the time that the League of Women A’oters was organized in Indiana. Its future was uncertain. Now It has about 16,000 members paying dues in more than one hundred fifty branch leagues. , The achievement of this two years which the members of the organization regard as the most important was the passage of a constitutional amendment making it unlawful for an alien so vote until be has become fully naturalized. This amendment was introduced into the Legislature of 1918 at the instance of the Franchise League. The league used its efforts successfully in the Legislature of 1920 for the second passage. Two bills supported by the league In the last legislature became, law. One of thoraf was the equal guardianship law, making the mother a co-guardlan of her children. Previous to the passage of the bill, Indiana had been operating under the old English common law, which made the father the sole guardian, and was one of only seven States in the country which still clung to that mediaeval arrangement. The other law was a child labor-school attendance law, by which it expects, in time, to raise the education level of the citizens of the State. At its convention a year ago the league passed a resolution urging Governor McCray to appoint a' woman as State probation and State school attendance officers. The Governor afterwards appointed Mrs. Carina Warrington and Miss Blanche Merry, respectively, to these'offices. Following along this same line of endeavor a number of local leagues undertook to have women appointed or elected to local school boards, with the result that a number of cities now have women on these boards. Associated with Mrs. Beardsley this year In the administration of the league are Mrs. Alice Foster McCullough of Ft. Wayne, Mrs. C. A. Carlisle of South Bend, Mrs. A B. Gould of Pern and Mrs. Katherine Greenougb of Indianapolis, vice president; Mrs. Oliva Beldon Lewis of Indianapolis, secretary, and Mrs. Homer McCray of Keudalvllle, treasurer. How many of these women will be candidates for re-election is not known, but it is probable that a majority of them will be retained in office for another year.

TONS OF SCENT FROM BLOOMS FILL BIG HALL (Continued Trom Pago One.) a table. Both cut flowers and those lit pots are used as table beautiflers. The more simple and plain the decoration the better the table looks. Although the fern has no pretty blossoms or flower, the several hundred ferns on exhibit at the show are admired by the men patrons as well as by the women. The rose and the carnation seem to be the favoriate of the women while the fern and the tulip are the easy winners with the men. The attention given an exhibit by the city of Indianapolis showing a part of •the famous Garfield park sunken gardens illustrates the great pride city people have in this marvellous park. The exhibits Is merely a suggestion of the beauty of the park, but it has been so tastefully and accurately portrayed it is visited by all those who attend the show. PUBLIC LIBRARY BOOK EXHIBIT. The Indianapolis Public Library has cooperated wit htbe flower show and has an exhibit of books, magazines and data on flower growing and gardening. In this way, the librarians are increasing In practice! usefulness of the library. The Riley Memorial library, as vsell as branch libraries all over the city, has lists of books pertaining to flowers and gardens. The other afternoon I was at the show and discovered that the flowers are “manicured” and dressed for their evening, appearance, just like actors. Near the west end of the Building is a large space which is used as a “’dressing room” for the flowers. Hundreds of carnations were taken from large containers. A man gave each flower a gentle shake. Guess, that was done to shake the sleepy look from some of the blooms. The stems were inspected, and the bloom proper examined to see if it had a perfect “curl or turn.” These actor flowers do not need any powder or paint, but they do use lots of water. Care is taken not to put too many flowers in one basket or vase. Some flowers must droop nicely to the side, others must stand up proudly and a few must nestle closely to' the rim of the container. Then the vases or baskets are pushed on carts, by attendants in uniform, to various places in the exposition hail. When a cut flower shows signs of drooping, it is immediately removed and a fresh flower substituted. Dead flowers have no place at this show.
