CLASH OF WITS IN LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS Both Democrat and Republican Politicians Expected to Be Active. CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, April 15.—There will be a battle of wits at the Baltimore league of women voters to win favor for the Republican and the Democratic parties. Women chieftains of both the parties— Mrs. Harriet Taylor Upton, vice chairman of the Republican National Executive committee and Ma. Emily Newell Blair, resident committee-woman of the Democratic national committee —have been asked to speak at the banquet on Tuesday evening. April 25th. In addition, both women chieftains will be present at most of the sessions besides having their organizers and assitants there as well. They will act as scouts, gathering much useful information for the pursuit of the elusive woman voter in the coming elections. Naturally both parties are anxious to win the favor of such politically minded women as members of the league of women voters who will be present from all over the country. One might ask why more fuss should he made over this convention than over the D. A. K. convention meeting, in Washington next week, which will probably draw even a larger number of women to its meetings. The answer that the discussions in the league will be mostly political, and resolutions will be adopted having a bearing on the policies of the political parties. The reason that such much more political importance Is attached to the league convention this year is because this is a congresional election year. Two years ago in Chicago, women were not yet franchised throughout the land and last year in Cleveland no national elections were approaching. The selection of Baltimore os the seat of the Pan-American conference, opening April 20, and the League of Women Voters convention, is conceded here to have been a happy choice In many respects. Among them is the nearness to Washington, giving women, from all over the country, the chance of a visit to the national Capital under tie pleasantest of circumstances. Baltimore Is less than one hour's train ride away. Delegates will obtain a “close-up” of Congress and the White House, m*t to mention being received by Mrs. Harding. Moreover, the nearness to Washington will bring the deliberation of this large and important group of politically minded women to thcattention of legislators and Government officials here, much to their enlightenment, it is expected.

In the summer of 1914. MARK SABRE finds that he is estranged from human sympathy and understandwlth the sole exception of LADY NONA TYBAR, an old sweetheart. now unhappily married. Sabre's prosaic and snobbish wife, MABEL, fails to understand her husband's poetic and whimsical temperament. In business he is undermined by Jealous associates in the firm of Fqrtune. East & Sabre and a promised partnership is diverted from him to TWYNING. At this point, Nona's life with Tybar become:, intolerable and she asks Sabre to take her away. War is declared and Sabre rushes to secure a commission . He speaks to Colonel Rattray of the Pinks. partthree CHAPTER IV—Continued. “Eh? Into what?" “The war." It was easier after the plunge. "I see in the papers that civilians are being given commissions by recommendation. Can you get me a commission?” Colonel Rattray showed surprise. "Well, I don t know. 1 might. I've no doubt I could, if you're eligible. How old are you. Sabre?" "Thirty-six.” Colonel Rattray said doubtfully, ‘‘Come on up to the Mess in the morning and I'il get our doctor to have a look at you. Then we’ll see what can be done. All right, eh?" 111. n* said nothing to Mabel of his intention. It was Just precisely the sort of thing he could not possibly discuss with Mabel. Mabel would say, "Whyever should you?” and of all imaginable ordeals the idea of exposing before Mabel his feeling about England • * • he would tell her when It was done, If it came ofT. And his thonght was, when a few hours later he was walking slowly away from his interview with Major Earnshaw, the doctor at the barracks, "Thank God I never said anything to Mabel about it.” Major Earnshaw had very pleasantly "had a go at this heart of yours.” Withdrawn his stethoscope and shaken his head. It was "no go; absolutely none, Sabre." “Well, but that’s for a commission. I'll go Into the ranks.” “You can't possibly go In as you are —now. The standards will probably be reduced, but they'll have to be reduced a goodish long way before you'll get la, l don't tiled telling you." IV Then came another of the frightful undoings of his emotions. The occasion was that of his meeting with IlHrkness outside the County Times office. liarkn°ss y .*s a captain of the battalion that had gone out who had been left behind owing to some illness. The British expeditionary force had been In action. Sabre said, “News? Anything about the Pinks?" Darkness nodded. He seemed to be swallowing. Then he said, “Yes, the regiment. Pretty bad.” Sabre said, “Any one— V and also stopped. Darkness looked, not at Sabre, but straight across the top of his head and began an appalling, and as it seemed to Sabre, an endless recitative. “The Colonel’s killed. Bruce Is killed. Otway's killed —" “Otway • • • *• “Cottar's killed. Bullen’s killed—” Endless! T..e names struck Sabre like successive blows. Were they never going to end? “Carmichael's killed. My young brother's-—” his voice cracked—''killed. Sikes is killed.” "Sikes killed • • • And your brother • • • " Hnrkness said in a very thin, squeaking voice: "Yes, the regiment's pretty well—The regiment's—” He looked full at Sabre and said in a very loud, deflgnt voice, “I bet they were magnificent. By God. I bet you they were magnificent Oh, my God, why the hell wasn't I there?" He turned abruptly and went away, walking rather funnily. This was the moment at which there descended upon Sabre, never to leave him while he remained not “In it,” the appalling sense of oppression that the war exercised upon him. On his brain like a weight; on his heart like a pressing hand. V ' And still events; still, and always, now, disturbing things. While he stood there he was suddenly j aware of Young Rod. Pole or Perch, rath' ? breathlessly come up. “I say, Sabre, have you heard this

frightful news about the Pinks? —I want you to talk to my mother. She’ll listen to you. I'm going to enlist. Sabre said, “Good Lord, are you, Perch? Must you? Your mother, why, what on earth will she do -without you? She'll " Young Perch winced painfully. “1 know. It pretty well kills me to think of It and I'm having the most frightful scenes with her. But I’ve thought It all out, Sabre, and I know I'm doing the right thing. This is, well, this is a chap's country, and I've figured it out It's got to come before my mother. It’s got to. She says it will kill her if I go. I believe it will, Sabre.” He rubbed a hand across his eyes and broke off. "Never mind about that; 1 know what I've got to do. You know lots of people. Well, I want to get hold of some nice girl to live with my mother and take care of her in my place while I'm away. A sort of companion, aren't they called? I want someone who my mother will Indignantly call a chit of a child”—he gave rather a broken little laugh—“can't I hear her saying it! I say, Sabre, do for God s sake help me. Do you know anyone?” This frightful war! Was it going to nttack even that pathe, c old woman at Puncher's Farm, with her fumbling bands and her frail existence centered solely la her son? He said, "I'm awfully sorry. Perch. Frightfully sorry for your mother and for you. I'll help you all I can. It's a funny coincidence but I believe I do know just the very girl that would be what you want—” Young Perch grasped his hand In delighted relief. "Oh, Sabre, if you do! I felt you would help.” "The chance I'm thinking about I was hearing of only a few days ago. The works’ foreman In my office, an o'.d chap called Bright. He's got a daughter abou'. 18 or thereabouts, and I was hearing tie wanted to get her Into some kind of post like yours. I’ve spoken to her once or twice when she’s been about the place for her father and I took a tremendous fancy to her. She's as pretty as a picture. F.ffie, she's called. I believe your mother would take to her no end. And she'd Just love your mother.” VI It was from Twynlng that Sabre bad heard that a post of some sort was being considered for Effle Bright. Her father, ns he had told young Perch, was works’ foreman at Fortune, East and Sabre'H. "Mr. Bright.” A massive old man with a massive, rather striking face hewn beneath a bald dome and thickly grown nil about and down the throat with stiff white hnlr. lie was intensely religious anil he had the deep-set and extraordinary penetrating eyes that frequently denote the religions zealot. Extraordinary that such a stern and hard old man should have for daughter such a fresh and lovable slip of a young thing as his Etfie.' Bright Effle. Sabre always called her, Inverting her names. Mr. Bright had a little cupboard called his office at the foot of the main stairway and Bright Effle came often to see her father there. Sabre had spoken to her In the little clipboard or just outside !t. Ho had delight In watching the most extraordinary shining that she had in her oyes. It was like reading ea entertaining book, he used to think, and he had the idea that humor of that rarest kind which is unbounded love mingled with unbounded sense of the oddities of life was packed to bursting within her. Some such apprehension of her Sabre had expressed to Twynlng. Twynlng had given a short laugh and said, "You seem to have been thinking a lot about the fair Effle!" The kind of laugh and the kind of remark that Sabre hated c and he gave a slight gesture which Twyniug well knew meant that he hated It. "What's old Bright going to do with her?" "lie doesn't quite know. He’s an idea of getting her out as a sort of lady's companion somewhere.” Tltls was what Sabre had remembered ; and he went straight from young Perch to Twynlng and recalled the conversatl n. Twynlng said, "Hello, still Interested In the fair Effle?" "It's for young Perch over at Penny Green I'm asking. For his mother. He's young man”—Sabre permitted his eyes to rest for a moment on Harold, seated at his desk—"and he feels he ought to join the army, lie wants the girl to bo with his mother while he’s away.” Twynlng, noting the glance, changed his tone to one of much friendliness “Oh, I see, oftl man. No, Effle's got nothing yet. She was over to our place to tea last Sunday.” “Good. I'll go and talk to old Bright. I’m keen about this.” “Yes, you seem to be, old man.” VII. Mr. Bright received the suggestion with a manner that irritated Sabre. While he was being told of the Perches lie stared at Sabre with that penetrating gaze of hij as though in the proposal he searched for some motive other than j common friendliness. His first omment| was, "They’ll want references, I sup- 1 pose, sir?" Sabre smiled. “Oh, scarcely, Mr. 1 Bright. Not when they know who you are.” The old man was standing before | Sabre bending his head close toward j him as though he would sense out some | hidden motive behind all this. He con- | traded his great brows ns if to squeeze j more penetration into his gaze. "Yes, i but I'll want references, Mr. Sabre. She's i not going here, there, nor anywhere.” (Continued in Our Next Issue.)

CRITICISMS OF YOUTH DEPLORED League of Women Voters Sends Letter on Subject. There has been too much public criticism of high school student regarding their morals, and social affairs, in the opinion of the League of Women Voters, as expressed through a committee appointed by the league. The report was given in the form of a letter of recommendation from the committee on high school social activities. The report said: “We feel that the widespread discussion and criticism of social affairs of the high school boys and girls cannot but re-act unfortunately upon the young people so erltizised, and we deplore such discussion and criticism by public speakers, committees and the public press. We urge also that full investigation should proceed public statements on the subject. We feel that the welfare of the young people themselves should be the primary consideration.” grease.
