WOMEN COME FROM AFAR TO CONFERENCE Delegates Cable From South America and Other Lands. By CONSTANCE DBEXEL. WASHINGTON, April 4.—Already cable messages bare announced to headquarters here of the National League of Women Voters that many South American delegates are now on their way to Baltimore to attend the Pan-American Conference of Women. Invitations to the nations of the Western hemisphere were sent through the State Department, on behalf of the League of Women Voters, and the twenty acceptances received include the majority of South and Central American republics, Mexico and Canada. In view of the distances to be covered, the invitations were dispatched some months ago. But the call to the conference and to the contention which immed'ately follows it, h is- only Just been sent forth to American * -men from headquarters here. It reads: “The National League of Women Voters calls its affiliated and associate members to send delegates to the Third Annual Convention of the League at Hotel Belvidere, Baltimore, Maryland, from April 24th to 29th, 1922. “The League calls women of all the Americas to meet In conferences from April 20th to 23rd, 1922. on subjects of special concern to women—education, child welfare, women in industry, prevention of traffic in women, civli and political status of women and International friendliness.” “Peace among nations,” the convention call continues, “is essential to the work that women have most at heart. A definite step towards the maintenance of peace has been taken by the conference on limitation of armament. The League has borne its full share of responsibility fpr making known to the conference the profound hope of the people of this land ■that war may cease. “But this hope can never be wholly •realized until friendly cooperation for comomn ends take the place of tioual rivalry. The league believes "at friendliness with our neighbor countries will be stimulated and strengthened when women from all parts of the Western Hemisphere come together fdr sympathetic study of their common problems.” Apparently Secretary of State Hughes agrees with this line of thought, for, tn accepting the invitation extended by the league to address a mass meeting during the Pan-American conference, he answered as follows: “The effort to assemble representative women of North and South America in a pan-American women's conference is of special interest to ali who desire to promote a better understanding between the American republics. In many LatinAmerican countries, as in the United States, women are taking an increasingly part in the study and solution of V which will ! - at ar meeting, and an interchange of views'iy regard to these prohlems can not but be helpful to all. I feel confident that your conference will again demonstrate the spiritof pan-American cooperation which has made successful such gatherings as the pan-American scientifieal and financial Congreves. You have by best wishes for the success ot your undertaking.” An unusually large number of Government officials and speakers of national and international prominence will take part in both the conference and the con\ention. In addition to the secretary of State, who will speak at the mass-meet-ing on the evening of “Washington Day” (April 28) the speakers include the secretary of agriculture, Mr. Wallace, I nited States Senator Anhur Capper, Dr. L. S. Howe, Director Genera! of the PanAmerican Union; Hon. John Y. Nugent, member of the Federal Trade Commission; Sirs. Mabel W. Willebrandt, assistant attorney general; Miss Julta Abbbtt of the Bureau of Education, Department of the Interior; Mrs. Helen 11. Gardener, United States Civil Service Commission among others.

The story begins with the remarks of Hapcood, a garrulous London solicitor, regarding a re.-ent visit to his old friend. MARK SABRE, at the"lalter’s home in picturesque Penny Green. Sabre, who is 31, has been married for six yeats and Hupgood suspects that Sabre and his wife, MABEL, are not exactly suited to one another. The differences of temperament show in trivial but significant events. When Mabel Informs her husband that tho family name of lo r two maids Is Jinks, Sabre immediately christens them High Jinks and Low Jinks. CHAPTER ll—Continued. “They’re a pair of father’s. I took them specially for you for this room. You haven't got any slippers like that." He gazed upon the heels downtrodden by her heavy father. lie dbl not mu<*h like her heavy father. "No, I haven't.” he said, and thought grimly, “Thank God!" 111. Mabel opened the kitchen door. “The master's come to see how nice the kitchen looks.” Two maids in blaek dresses and an extraordinary amount of stiffly starched aprons and caps and streamers rose awkwardly and bobbed awkward little bows. One was Tery tall, the other rather short. Mabel looked from the girls to Mark and from Mark to the giris, precisely as if she were exhibiting rare specimens to her husband and her husband to her rare specimens. And in the tone of one exhibiting pinned, dried, and completely impersonal specimens, sli* announced, “Thef’re sisters. Their nams is Jinks.” Mark, examining 4he exhibits, had been feeling like a foot Their nams humanized them and relieved his awkward feeling. “Ha! Jinks, eh? High Ticks and Low Jinks, what?” He anghed. It struck Mm as rather comic; and High Jinks and Low Jinks tittered broadly, losing in the most astonishing way the one her severity and the other her glumness. Mabel seemed suddenly to have lost her Interest In her exhibits and their cage. She rather hurried Mark through the kitchen premises moving into the, garden, replied rather abstractedly to" his plans for the garden’s development. Suddenly she said, ‘Mark, I do wish you hadn’t said that in the kitchen.” He caught his arm around her and gave her a playful squeeze. “About High Jink3 and Low Jinks? Ha! Dashed funny that, don’t you think?” “No, I don’t. I don’t think it’s a bit funny.” He stared, puzzled. He had tried to explain the absurd thing, and she simply could not see it. “I simply don’t." And again that vague and transient discomfort shot through him. ' IV. Sabre awoke in the course of that night and lay awake. The absurd incident came immediately into his mind and remained in his miud. High Jinks and Low Jinks was comic. No getting over it. Si-n!d of course, but Just the kind of stupid thing that tickled him irresistibly, And she couldn't see it. Absolutely could not gee it. But if she were never

going to see any of these stupid little things that appealed to him—? A night-light, her wish, dimly Illumined the room. He raised himself and looked at her fondly, sleeping beside him. He thought, “Dash it, the thing's been Just the same from her point of view. That den business. She likes den, and I can't stick den. Just the same for her as for me that High Jinks and Low Jinks tickles me and doesn't tickle her.” lb* very gently moved with his Anger a tress of her hair that had fallen upon her face . . . Mahel! .... His wife! . . . How gently beneath her filmy bedgown her bosom rose and fell! . . . How ntferlv ralm her face was. How at peace, how secure, she lay there. He thought. "Three weeks ago she was sleeping in th P terrific privacy of her own room, and here se Is come to me In mine. Cut off from everything and everybody and come here to me.” His though’s continued: One life! Onp life out of two !ives; one nature out of two natures! Mysterious anti extraordinary metamorphosis. She bad brought her nature to his. and he his nature to hers, anti they were to mingle and become one nature . . Absurdly* and Inappropriately his mind picked up and presented to him the grotesque words, “High Jinks and I.ow Jinks." A note of laughter was irreslstihiy tickled out of him. She said very sleepily, “Mark, are yon laughing? What are you laughing at?" He patted her Bhoulder, “Oh, nothing." One nature?

CHAPTER 111. > i. One nature! In the fifth year of their married life thoughts of her and of the poignant and tremendous adventure on which they were embarked together were no longer possible while she lay in bed beside him. They had come to occupy separate rooms. In the fifth year of their married life measles visited Penny Green. Mabel caught it. Sabre went to sleep In another room—and the arrangement prevailed. Nothing was said between them on the matter, one way or the other. They naturally occupied different rooms during her nines. She recovered. They continued to occupy different rooms. It was the most natural business in the world. The solo reference to recognition of permanency in this development of the relations between them wag made when Sabre, on the first Saturday afternoon after Mabel’s recovery—he did not go to his office at Tidborough on Saturdays—carried at out his idea, conceived during her sickness, of making the bedroom Into which he had moved serve as his study also. He had never got rid of his distaste for his ‘'den.” At lunch on this Saturday, “I tell yon what I'm going to do this afternoon,” he said. ”I'm going to move my books up Into my room.” Mabel displayed no Interest In the move nor made any reference to It at teatime. In the evening, hearing her pass thp door, he called he/ In. He was In his shfrt sleeves, arranging the books. ‘‘There you are! Not bad?” She regarded them and the room. “They look all right. All the same. I must say It seems rather funny using you! bedroom downstairs.” 11. But the significance of Ihe removal rested not In the definite relinquishment of the den, but in her words "using your bedroom;” the definite recognition of seii,urate rooms. And neither commented upon It. After all, landmarks. In the course of a Journey, are more frequently observed and noted as landmarks, when looking bark along the journey than when actually passing through them. CHAPTER IV. Mabel was two years younger than Sabre, 2." at the time of her marriage, and just past her thirtieth birthday when the separate rooms were first occupied. Ilor habit of sudden laughter, rather loud, was rather characteristic of her. ner laugh came suddenly, and very heartily, at anything that amused her and without her first smiling or suggesting by any J other sign that she was amused. I She had a rather long nose and this

CHAPTER V. i The Penny Green Garden nouse Development Scheme was begun In 1910. In 1908, the year of tho measles and the separated bedrooms, no shadow of It had yet been thrown. It never occurred to any one that a railway would one day link Penny Green with Tlrlborough and all the rest of the surrounding world, or that a railway to Tidborough was desirable. Sabre bicycled lb daily to Fortune, East and Sabre’s, and the dally ride to and fro had become a curious pleasure to him. There had once occurred to him as he rode, and thereafter had persisted and accumulated, tho feeling that, 311 the daily, solitary passage between Tidborough and Penny Green, he was mysteriously detached from, mysteriously suspended between, tbe two centers that were his two worlds—his business world and his home world. Fortune, East and Sabre, Ecclesiastical and Scholastic Furnishers and Designers, had in Tidborough what Is called. In business and professional circles, a good address. The address of Fortune, East and Sabre was emphatically a good address because its business was with, the Church and for the Church; with colleges, universities and schools and for colleges, universities nnd schools; with bishops, priests and elergy, churchwardens, headmasters, headmistresses, governors and bursars, and for bishops, priests and clergy, churchwardens, headmasters, headmistresses, governors and bursars.

WOULD IMPROVE SCHOOL SYSTEM Lecturer Believes Women Can Be of Service in Reforms. ' ' ; 4 \ a MRS. MARKIETTA JOHNSON. “If the women's clubs accomplished nothing else within the next ten years, they will have done an inestimable service to the Nation If through their Influence they can reduce the number of children to each teacher to not more than twenty. According to Mrs. Marietta Johnson of Falrhope, Alabama, this Is one of the most Important problems to be met with in the present day methods of education. With the crowded condition which exists In almost every schoolroom, it Is impossible for the teacher to develop the pupil to the best of hts ability, she believes. In addition to this, the system of promotion or failure 'under which the pupil works is detrimental to his best interests, because It defeats the idea of ietttng him "live completely today.” Mrs. Johnson contends that In our schools the work of one year 1s looked upon simply as preparatory to that of the year to come, with the result that the pupil falls below the requirements of the school, develops “nerves" and is otherwise harmed rather than helped by his work. She believes that no definite requirement should be made of the child, but that instead the school should strlvo to meet his needs, that there should he no failures, but a constant effort to produce a sound body, a sympathetic. Intelligent mind, and a sincere spirit, j In the school which Mrs. Johnson founded fifteen years ago In Falrhope she has carried out the work according to these Ideas, and her work Is Indorsed by John Dewev. professor of psychology st Columbia University and many other promoters of education. She addressed the members of the Woman's llotary Club at their luneheon Monday at the Claypool Hotel, and will give a series of lectures this week at All Saints Unitarian Church, under the auspices of 11.

WOMEN VOTERS ACHIEVE AIMS Indiana League Credit President With Results. The name of Mrs. A. H. Beardsley of Elkhart is uppermost in the minds of' members of the Indiana League of Women Voters n0,7 that the approach of the which will be held in Lafayette May 9-11, makes the question of leadership for the coming year a prominent one. As M-rs. Beardsley has not yet returned from Florida and the gulf, where she has been making a trip with -her husband, Senator Beardsley, it is not known whether or not she will consent to be a candidate for re-election, but the achievements of the organization during the two years of her presidency will assure her the support of the convention delegates if she cares for the office again. Until her attitude in the matter Is known it is probable that no other candidate for the office will be talked of. Mrs. Beardsley took office in May, 1920, at the time the League of Women Voters was organized in Indiana. Its future was uncertain. Now it has about 16,000 dues-paylng members belonging to more than 150 branch leagues. Mrs. Beardsley's personal charm and gracious dignity as a State leader have contributed greatly to the success of the organization. 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 to vote 1 until he has become fully naturalized. This amendment was introduced into the Legislature of 1919 by the Franchise League, which was the forerunner of the League of Women Voters, and its passage was secured. The league used its efforts successfully in the Legislature of 1921 for tils second passage. When the time approached for the amendment to go to the people In September, 1921, the league threw all its force into a campaign to popularize the measure, with the result that that amendment alone, out of ali those submitted, secured enough votes for adoption. Two bills presented and pushed by the league In tbe last Legislature became law. One of them was the equal guardianship law, making the mother a co-guardlan of her children. Previous to the passage of th bill Indiana has been operating under tbe old English common law, which made the father the sole guardian, and was one of only seven Stares in the country which still clung to that medieval arrangement. The other law was a child labor-school attendance law, which is expected iu time to raise the educational 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 a* State probation and State school attendance officers. The Governor announced at once his willingness to accede’ to the request of the women, and shortly afterward 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. These solid achievements of the organization. in addition to a great deal of successful routine work along educational and welfare lines, have made Mrs. Beardsley a most successful president. Associated with Mrs. Beardsley this year in the administration of the league are Mrs .Alice Foster MeCullogh of Ft. Wayne, Mrs. C. A. Carlisle of South Bend, Mrs. A. E. Gould of Peru aud Mrs. Katherine Greenough, Indianapolis, vice presidents; Mrs. Olive Belden Lewis of Indianapolis. secretary, and Mrs. Homer McCray of Kendallvlile, treasurer.

WHAT** ALREADY HAPPENED. Tills story det Is with tbe adventures of a bride and groom who are trying to keen marriage from interfering with their individual liberty. As this chapter open* they return home after spending an evening out—but not with each other. My husband reamed home before I did. I was truly sorry because we had reversed ordinary conditions, because Jack was waiting for me to come home at midnight. I felt as If I were proving myself a complete failure as a wife. I felt like a culprit. Yet why—why—my guilty conscience— If our theory of independenet were worth anything? I was consoled considerably to find that Jack hnd heard Bart’s auto and had rushed to the curb to meet me. The men shook hands cordially. Jack was splendid enough not to question us, although he couldn't have known where I hnd been. Good-old Jack I Pome husband* would have started to be horrid right then and there. “Obliged, Bart, for looking after Peg,” he said. To which Bart: "I’ve done It, as needed, *ll my life.

SAYS FEMININE EXTRAVAGANCE NEEDS BUDGET Bonner Advises Young People to Put Brakes on Credit Buying. Discussing wrong and right ways to use a downtown “charge account” Robert O. Bonner, credit manager of L. S. Ayres and Company, speaking this morning before a woman’s thrift meeting in the directors room of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Company, said that although the "woman in business” today is more than holding her own and Is progressing to the point where she is forcing material recognition, there is “unfortunately a growing tendency toward extravagance in the matter of dress, home surroundings, social demands, etc.,' and this causes no little apprehension on the part of employers.” “It is hard to make a woman believe it,” said Mr. Bonner, “but this obsession for finery is graduallly making an inroad on her usefulness and right there Is where educational brakes should be applied with all the force possible. The problem is not so much the abuse of credit as it is lack of a spirit of thrift or concern for the future. They plead necessity for extravagance in,attire from the tops of their heads to the bottom of their feet in all seasons of the year. It is a pity so often their pride takes them so far away from the sensible.” The tendency toward extravagance is shown graphically on the books of the credit departments of the big downtown stores, Mr. Bonner showed. “A dollar will purchase Just so much,” he said, “and you can’t make two dollars out of it. To the thoughtless there come* the temptation to make that dollar do the impossible. Young men and young women too often live right up to the hilt of their incomes—get credit and pay their bills promptly, then stretch that credit into the third month. The case with which this can be done in certain institutions thorughtout the country encourages this type constantly to anticipate the future—everyth! lg they buy 1* to be paid for in money they are going to earn, one two, three, four or six months hence. The thinking credit man, when he recognizes an account of this kind, immediately will put on the brakes and will reason with such a man or woman—usually successfully.” Mr. Bonner urged that every family In the community live or a budget. “Let me offer this thought for your consideration,” he said. “There should be a budget system of income and expense carried out in every household in Indianapolis. The most effective agency for assisting In this is the bank or trust company. The work along this line now being done by the Home Economics Bureau of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Company should be encouraged and spread broadcast through the channel of every woman’s club in Phis community. The man. woman or child who Is building bis Use on the strong foundation of thrift and economy and a planning of his income and outgo will always be In good credit, will always command the respect and high regard of his fellow man and will attain his own hopes and ambitions.” Evans Woollen, president of the Fletcher Savings and Trust Company, spoke to the women at the meeting on "The Modern Bank and Its Meaning to Women.” The meeting was one of a series that are being held periodically at the trust company's office for all women of the city and county who are interested in home finance problems. Mr. Woolen explained the functions of the different departments of the bank aud emphasized the need that every woman has for a banking connection, particularly in the use of the bond department, which will afford her protection from bad investments, and the checking department to facilitate and systematize her business, especially if it is the business of managing the finances of a household. “Women,” he said, “control 90 per cent of the income. The woman in the home determines the ultimate end of the families finances.”

enough to interest Jack, who is an expert. YVhich is a pity because Mrs. Herrod understands chess and she and Jack swap problems. Since she can’t belong to the chess club, it being for men. Jack takes his big discoveries to her. And has for years. She's a lot older than Jack. So I ought not to worry. I do not worry. But still I often wish I knew the game as well as Mrs. Herrod does. \ in the distressingly sudden way ot jealousy, a horrid idea took possession of me. I had been bored —bored —by the crowd at the Little Playhouse. My mind had been on my husband and home half of the time. With an intuition which I recognized as trustworthy, I knew that Jack hadn't given a thought to his bride all evening. How could he, and play chess? But undoubtedly he had planned to tell Mrs. Herrod about the new twomover. —Copyright, 1922. (To Be Continued.)

Dr. Bishop's Talks By DR. R. H, BISHOP. r MALLPOX is becoming again a poI jjf Virulent smallpox *l ported from MisV _ , sourl. The assumpTV tion is that a tpKjNßi traveler from some <s ' stant State brought 'sap* In an undetected //S rap? case - Other cases developed and already J the sparks are being scattered; outbreaks of the severe form of smallpox have been reported from Chicago and other widely separated points. For a number of years the disease has been more or less of a harmless variety. Occasionally a severe case of smallpox has developed, but as a rule the disease has appeared in so mild a form that physiicans have had difficulty in recognizing it. Asa result, the public has almost forgotten Its old dread of this historic scourge. Vaccination made smallpox almost obsolete. Yet carelessness and a feeling of undue security may bring It back. This because people put off getting vaccinated or are altogether indifferent. Vaccination is not dangerous. More than 3,000,000 were vaccinated in this country in the two years before the war without a single death. Since vaccination is the only preventive of smallpox, it is essential that one should be vaccinated early In life. A baby should be vaccinated in Its first again at the age of six.
