NEW ARRIVAL BRIGHTENS VP PARTY OFFICE Democratic Women Welcome Committee Woman From Missouri. BY CONSTANCE DBEXEI*. WASHINGTON, April T.—With the arrival of Mrs. Emily Newell Blair of Missouri, as.resident committee woman, Democratic headquarters here have added a distinctly feminine touch in more ways than one. A visit there today disclosed pots of flowers In the various offices and a general sprucing up. Mrs. Blair has her own commodious office with rugs and comfortable chairs for •visiting Democratic women to sit In as they confer over politics In their own State. Mrs. Blair had left for New England, where shs will make a few speeches spending three days In conferences with the Democratic women In New York before her return. But In her place was a tall, handsome woman who somehow or other looked as If she had sprung from Virginia, perhaps because she wore her waved hair on top of her head somewhat In the fashion of colonial period. It was Mrs. Blair Ban Flster of Ohio, who has Just been appointed assistant to Mrs. Blair. She is a sister of Senator Carter Glass of Virginia. Today she was taking charge of headquarters, and her southern training as hostess v; already being put into practice by a visit from one of the thousands of women who will soon flock to Washington for conventions here and in Baltimore. Today’s visitor, Mrs. Virginia Marshall Clopton, has arrived from Hawaii, whose state regent she will represent at the convention of the Daughters of the American Revolution. She Is a former president of the Los Angeles Woman’s Club and a charter member of the State Democratic Women’s Club of California. Both Mrs. Blair and Mrs. Bannister have been occupied with a plan of organization of countrywide Democratic women's clubs and the rough draft is now ready. Printed copies will be available in quantity for distribution very shortly. "It Is indeed to assist Democratic women to organize clubs for the purpose ( of mobilizing the Democratic women for j service to the party, of attracting to it : all liberal-minded women not now at- i tached to the party and for the purpose j of mak'ng effective the Ideals of women i within "he party councils," she said. They are to be started at once so that they'may serve during the primary campaigns. Candidates for Democratic party nominations should be asked to present themselves, thus enabling the women to select the best candidates. It Is hoped that these clubs will serve as training schools for speakers, campaigners and ward workers, and agencies to furnish the various States and the national headquarters with useful Information Somehow or other, women can’t seem to get away from these “study clubs” In spite of the'hue and cry for equal rights, and It looks as If both men and wornk en still like to get away once In a while \c groups to talk things over minus the of the opposite sex. Women organizers for the Republican party long ago have recognized this doctrine, and Republican women’s clubs within the party are greatly encouraged from headquarters here. There Is one novel suggestion In Mrs. Blald’s plan, however, which might be universally adopted. It Is urged that .u, time people contribute to the work of *he club should be estimated at a certain amount per hour, perhaps 63 cents an hour, that being the price In many places for polling. These credits should be counted on the books of the committee as a cash contribution, and then checked off on the expenditures as service. But of most direct interest to Democratic women here, however, Is the conference of national committee women called for April 29. Mrs. Bannister stated today that Mrs. Blair has thought It wise to take advantage of the presence in the East of so many Democratic women because of the D. A-.R convention here and the pan-American conference and League of Women Voters’ convention In Baltimore. Ambitious plans for the meeting and dinner are lelng formulated. —Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Compaay.-

Dr. Bishop*s Talks

BY DR. R. 11. BISHOP. ©• mNE Indication of your • general health is the fingernail. If your nails are brittle or show white specks, something is wrong your general health is not up to par. Besides acting in this way as a health Index the nails perform the function 0/ protec2T~ ~ Ing the tips of the Angers. They save the fingers from pressure and Injury and give them strong support. The sense of touch thus is made more accurate. In order to help the fingernails perform their functions It Is necessary to keep them In perfect condition. The nails should curve from side to side, have a smooth, shiny surface and be pink in color. The white surface of the nail at the root, commonly called “half-moon.” should be In prominence at the base of the nail. After the hands have been washed thoroughly an orangewood stick or nail file should be used to remove the particles of foreign matter from the under surface. Never use the point of scissors or the blade of a knife because either of these cause the under surface to become rough and hold particles of dirt more securely. After the use of the nail file or orangewood stick, the nail brush should be employed and then again the stick or file. If the under surface of the nail or tho skin becomes roughened, dip ths fingers In cold cream and let the nalla take up as much of the cream as they can. Then dip them In talcum powder. This should be done before retiring. The small flaps of skin which lap over the nail should be pushed back very gently with an orange stick every day. Be careful not to tear this skin, because hangnails are thus formed which allow germs to enter the body. These torn fragments may give rise to bone felons or even to blood poisoning.

STYLE PENDULUM SWINGS BACK

The society flapper has gone far enough, too far, assert some of her critics. Those who believe that the world's modes and manners are governed by a pendulum motion, assert that the lawlessness and feverish gayety of today are but the natural reactions to the sadness, anxiety and restraint of yesterday. Now the pendulum Is due to swing away from today's reckless social standards and activities, back to—what? The opposite of today's manners and modes would be a revival of Victorian decorum ! Yet human nature is so freakish, that If decorum became fashionable, folks might actually enjoy it!

A, ©l9-H A&-M-HU.TCHINSO N v

A series of significant differences over | trivial events has convinced MARK SABRE, a well-educated Englishman, that after eight years-of married life he is almost completely entranged from his prosaic and snobbish wife, MABEL. He seeks refuge in the company of his eccentric neighbors, Mr. Fargus and “the Perchi s" YOUNG PERCH and his Invalid mother. Suddenly an old friend returns to his life. The triend is NONA, an old sweetheart, now the wife of the dashing LORD TYBAR. Sabre's Inability to find sympathy at home is duplicated In the office of Fortune, East A Sabre where ho has charge of the publishing department. He dreams of writing a history of England and has been promised full partnership in the firm. Suddenly his hopes are blasted when TWINING, a Jealous colleague, announces that he has been promised the partnership by Fortune, chief share • holder. PARTTWO CHAPTER ll—Continued. Sabre utterd a single word, "Good." Twyning’s face darkened again and darkened worse. He spoke also but a single word, “Thanks!” He turned sharply on his heel and went to the door. “I say, Twynlng!” Sabre Jumped to his feet and went to Twynlng with outstretched hand. “I didn't mean to take It like that. Don't think I'm not—l congratulate you. Jolly good. Splendid. I tell you what—l don’t mind telling you—it was a bit of a smack In the eye for me for a moment. You know, I've rather sweated over this business" —his glance indicated the stacked bookshelves, the firm’s publications, his publications . . . “See what I mean?” A certain movement In his throat and about hie mouth indicated, more than his words, what he meant. A slight. Twynlng took the hand and gripped it with a firmness characteristic of his handshake. "Thanks, old man. Thanks awfully. Os course I know what you mean." Outside the door he clenched his bauds. He thought, "Smack in the eye for yen, was it? You'll get a damn sight worse smack In the eye one of these days. Dirty dogl” II Immediately the door waa closed Sabre went what he would have called "plug in” to Mr. Fortune; that is to say, without hesitation and without reflection. "I’ve Just heard that you’ve told Twynlng you’re going to take him into partnership." The whale-like front gave a sudden leap and quiver precisely as If It had been struck'By a cricket ball. Mr. Fortune’s voice hardened very remarkably. “As to that, I vHll permit myself two remarks. In the first, place, I consider It highly reprebensihle of Twynlng to have communicated this to you—” Sabre broke in. “Well, he didn’t. I Inferred It. It seems I Inferred correctly." There flashed through Mr. Fortune's mind a poignant regret that, this being the case, he had not denied It. He said, "I am exceedingly glad to bear it." Sabre, despite his private feelings in the matter, characteristically followed this reasoning completely, and said so. “Yes, that's your way of looking at it, sir, and I don’t say it isn’t perfectly sound —from your point of view—” Mr. Fortune Inclined his head solemnly: “I am obliged to you.” •• —Only other people look at thing* on the face of them. Just as they appear. You know —it’s difficult to express it— I’ve put my heart into those books. I can’t quite explain It hut I felt that the slight, or what looks like a slight. Is on them, not on me.” He put his hand to the back of his head, a habit characteristic when he was embarrassed or perplexed. “I'm afraid I can’t quite express it, but it’s the books." “No, I confess that is a little beyond me,” said Mr. Fortune, smoothing his front; and they remained looking at due another. A sudden and unearthly moan sounded through the room. Mr. Fortune spun himself with relief to bis desk and applied his lips to a flexible speaking tube. Sabre aroused himself and stood up abruptly. “Ah, well! All right, sir.” 111. Arrived again In his room, Babre dropped Into his chair. In his eyes was the kok that had been in them when

That such a revival of maiden modesty and demurs modes Is not lmposslblo, is Interestingly suggested, even if not definitely prophesied, by several very recent developments in girls’ party frocks. Two such designs are sketched today, each a model of demure prettlncss which good Queen Victoria herself might have approved in her roost prudish days.

he had tried to explain to Mr. Fortune about the books, what Mr. Fortune had confessed he found a little beyond him. He thought: “The books . . . Os course Fortune hasn't imagined them . . . seen them grow . . . But It hurts Like hell it hurts . . . And I can't explain to him how I feel about them ... I can't explain to any one.” Hls thoughts moved on: “!’•■- been twelve years with him.. Twelve years we've leen dally togetbek, and e-hen I said that about the books I sat there and he sat there—and Just looked. Stared at each other like masks. Masks! I sit behind my mask and he sits behind his, and that's all we see. Twelve mortal years! And there are thousands of people In thousands of offices . . . thousands of homes . . . Just the same. And behind masks. Mysterious business. Extraordinary.” He thought: "Ail looking for something . . . You can see it In half the faces yon see. Looking for what? Love? But lots have love. Happiness? But aren't lei* happy? But are they?" Ke knitted his brows: "It goes deeper than that. It's some universal thing that's wanting. Is It something that religion ought to give, but doesn’t? Light? Some new light to g! every one certainty in religion, In belief. Light?” His thoughts went to Mabel. Upon a sudden impulse he looked at his watch. Only just after twelve. He could get back in time for lunch. Lonely for her, day after day, and left as he ha-d left her that morning. They could have a Jolly afternoon together. He could make It a Jolly afternoon. Nona kept coming into his thoughts—arid more so after this Twynlng business. He would have Mabel in bis thoughts. He went In and told Mr. Fortune ho rather thought of taking the afternoon off if he was not wanted. He mounted his bicycle and rode purposefully back to Mabel.

CHAPTER 111. 1 “Anything for me, Flrrlp?” Sabre asked the postman as ho arrived at Fenny Greens. “One, Mr. Sabre.” Sabre took the letter and glanced at the handwriting. It was from Nona. Her small, neat, masculine script had once been as familiar to him as his own. It was curiously like his own. She had the same trick of not linking all the letters In a word. He glanced at It, regarded It for THE WHALE-LIKE FRONT GAVE A SUDDEN QUIVER AND MR. FORTUNE’S VOICE HARDENED REMARKABLY. slightly longer than a glance, and with a little pucker of brows and Ups, then made the action of putting It, unopened, in his pocket.

one day and be bored about it. How are you? * Noma.” He thought: “Funny she didn’t mention she’d written Just now. Perhaps she thought It was funny I didn't say I'd had it. I must tell her.” He returned her letter to its envelope and put the envelope In his pocket. Then he wheeled hls bicycle Into his gate. He smiled. "Mabel will be surprised at me back like this." Mabel was descending the stairs as he entered the hall. In the white dress she wore she made a pleasant picture against the broad, shallow stairway and the dark paneling. But she did not appear particularly pleased to see him. But he thought, “Why should she be? That's Just it. That's why I've come back." "Hullo?” she greeted him. "Have you forgotten something?” He smiled Invitingly. “No, I’ve Just come back. I suddenly thought we’d have a holiday.” She showed puzzlement. "A holiday? What, the office? All of you?” She had paused three steps from the foot of the stairs, her right hand on the banisters. Ills wlfelHe slid hls hand up the rail and rested It on hers. “Good Lord, no. Not the office. No, I suddenly thought we'd have a holiday. You and I.” He half hoped she would respond to the touch of his hand by turning the palm of her own to it. But the thought. "Why should she?” and she did not. She said, "But how extraordinary! Whatever for?” She had descended and ne moved along the hall with her toward the morning room. “It's rither extraordinary,” she said. She certainly was not enthusiastic over It. She asked, “Well, what are you going to do?" He wished ho had thought of some plan as he came along. “What time’s lunch? Come on, we'll cut the Cowers.” IL She cut the first rose and held It to her lips, smelling it. "Lovely. Who was yot>r letter from. Mark?” He thought, “How on earth did she know?" He had forgotten It himself. “How ever did you know? From Lad} Tybar. They’ro back.” "I saw you from the window with the postman. Lady Tybar! Whatever was she writing to you about?" He somehow did mot like this. Why “whatever”? And being watched was rather beastly; he remembered he had fiddled about with the letter —half put it In his pocket anil then taken It out again. Arid why not? What did it matter? Mabel did not particularly like Nona. He said, "Just to say they're back. She wants us to go up there." (Continued in Our Next Issue.)

DOGS KICK UP TONS OF TROUBLE FOR BILL HODGE But He Escapes Any Fatal Bite While Playing in *Dog Love?

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN. “Dog Love.” That's a funny title for a play, but nobody in this wide world could use such a handle for a play In a theater except William Hodge. And nobody would want such a play but Bill Hodge and the public wouldn't attend the proceedings in such Jarge numbers unless Mr. Hodge were among those present. “Dog Love” Is not a great play, and at times it doesn’t resemble a play at all but . That's the rest of my story. Mr. Hodge for years has profitably given the American public a certain brand of entertainment which it has not only patronized freely, but actually loved. He has given us a sort of a homespun, kitchen made plays which appeals to those who attend the theater. Mr. Hodge has given the stage clean plays. And That Is a wonderful contribution for any rpan these days. There are tons of sunshine, bnshels of trouble, a clean love affair and pounds of delightful hoaknm In all of Bill Hodge's plays a-id “Dog Love” is no exception to the rule. And I am going an record right here and now to this effect —that I am not going to criticize a clean play such as 'Dog Love,” when a big audience laughs as honestly and as freely as hundreds of Indianapolis people did last night at the Murat. This new comedy by and with Mr. Hodges Is 100 per cent Hodge. When I Judge apples I Judge that fruit by applo standards and not In terms of oranges. Hodge's plays and must be Judged by his own peculiar standard and It Is my humble opinion that “Dog Love” reflects splendidly the Hodge brand of humor as well as his personality.. If I applied the rules which Mr. Lionel Barrymore Invited In “The Claw,” there would be nothing left of the nodge play as a play. But It wouldn’t be fair and honest to the public nor to Mr. nodge to use a measure of standards of "Dog Love” which “The Claw” demands. The plays come under different heads. Considered In the Hodge measuring cup, “Dog Love” fills the cup with an evening of light, clean and t times delicious entertainment during which Hodge has a chance to be the man we have seen so much on the stage. Mr. Hodge knows what the public likes from him and he Is good enough of a showman to give the public the regular Hodge brnnd of goods. In "Dog Love,” Hodge Is cast as George Oliver, a young man, who Is running a dog farm where society people can "boa*(l" their dogs. While supporting his Invalid sister in this way, Oliver (the Hodge hero) becomes Innocently mixed up with bootleggers, constables, egg thieves, several society people who think more of dogs than they do their wives, daughters and husbands. He gets into all kinds of trouble, but the Hodge brand of humor save* the day as well as the dogs. The cast of humans are adequate to the light comedy demands made upon them and Mr. Hodge Is Bill Hodge, who Is always able to turn the tables when he Is nearly down and out. Os course be falls in love with Florence Arnold and he wins her too, by Heck. The dogs are good actors also. The cast of "Dog Love" Is as follows: Nick Gustave Holland Mrs. William Mrs. Charles G. Craig George Oliver William Hodge Florence Arnold Ann Davis Mr. Appleton George W Barbier Constable Shaw Leighton Stark John. Winford Philip Dunning Mrs. Appleton ....Edith Shayne Mr. Jennings John Webster famille Du Batry Gwyn Tudor Mini! A Pekingese lipcr An English Bui! "Dog Love" In the hands of Mr. Hodge is dandy entertainment. It's clean, wholesome and sparkling. At the Murat tonight, Saturday matinee and night.

SPEAKER URGES MUSIC LESSONS IN EARLY GRADES Miss Ada Picking Tells of Changed Conditions in All Quarters. Public school music was of great Interest In the convention of Federated Musia Clubs, which closed yesterday afternoon, with a talk from Miss Ada Bicklng, first vice president of the federation, on “Public School Music from Supervisors’ Stands point.” She emphasized the point that nfuslc should be taught In the earliest grades and that the pupils should be given credit for their work In music appreciation. Miss Bicklng suugested that the slogan of Indiana be made “music for all children and all children for music.” She said that business, the churches and people all generally are changing their ideas and the schools should follow suit, by making music a required subject. Miss Bicklng said children love musio and older people will love music, for the children’s sake, in addressing the large audience at the music memory contest Thursday in the Travertine room, of the Hotel Lincoln. At the close of the first contest It was found that there were fiftyone contestants *nd that ten of this number had made perfect scores. The ten perfect scores were made by schools number 66, 61, 47, 13, 41, 60, 51, 43, 8 and 10. Alma Frohne and Jane Deitz were so perfect in the contest that after taking the contest several times, it was d.ecided to duplicate the prize so each was presented with a badge and $5. Special emphasis has been placed upon the music memory contest which is being conducted in most of the schools, and as an example of the work along these lines the Orloff Trio, which uses the memory exclusively played for the Thursday afternoon session. This contest has been picked out to localize in the child's mind the kind of music such as “The Marche Militaire.” This piece Is played for the child until it recognizes march time and rhyme, then when hearing a march without knowing the name of it, yet knows that It is a march. The same principal applies to all the members chosen fov the music memory contest. Among the out-of-town Junior students who received special notice for their ability and talent were Miss Virginia McKey of Muncle Juvenile Music Club. Miss McKey had all the poise of an older artist, although this was one of the largest audiences she has entertained. Mrs. Schnrmann, president of the Federation for Indiana spoke of Miss McKey as being "wonderful material for future contests.” The example of this one student Indicates the kind of work that the Junior and Juvenile clubs of the State, are doing for the children, she said.
