NEW PLATFORM FOR NATIONAL WOMAN’S PARTY Steps to Follow Gaining of Equal Suffrage as First Victory. BY CONSTANCE I>REXEL. WASHINGTON, May 22.—Having fol- ; lowed Susan B. Anthony in the suffrage; crusade which is now successfully terminated, the National Woman's Party is now working on the next step In tie liberation of women, as dreamed by Miss Anthony and other suffrage pioneers, in j ISIS. Quoting from Mi-s Anthony's stated • aims in battling for women's rights, which said, ‘My purpose is l<> educate women to do precisely as I have done, rebel against your man-raado laws,” Miss Mary Winner of Philadelphia for weeks past has been preparing anew Magna Charts for women, which was r* ad at the dedication ceremonies of their headquarters, attended by President and Jin. Harding. A copy, signed by founders of the party, was deposited in the corner stone of the building. Miss Paul and other founders of the National Woman's Party revised and finally approved the charter, a synopsis of which ts hereby given for publication for the first time. It reads: “Humanity. Ailed with th-- Impulse to forever greater freedom, has advanced through the ages from one charter of rights to another. The liberties which we enjoy today under our Government are based upon the Magna Charta of 1214. the bill of rights of 1>0S), the reform bill of 1532, the reform bill of 1507. the declaration of the rights of man of 1779, the Mayflower compact, the Declaration of independence and the Federal Constitution “Moved by the same impulse for freedom. we b.embers of the woman's party today promulgate our charter, a reassertion almost a century later "f the women's declaration of rights proclaimed in 1545. Only one of the fundamental rights demand then has been fully won—political enfranchisement —and that h~ but I- w of the women of the earth. We pledge ourselves to bring to a triumphant conclusion the full brave program of the pioneers of women's fr'edom. “Women In 1545 demanded equality with men in church and State. Progress has been made, but full equality has r.ot yet been granted. We reiterate this demand. “Women In 1848 demanded equal privileges and opportunities in education; There are still States whose universities supported by the taxes of mc-n and women alike refuse admission to women on equal terms with men. Great professional schools today, by refusing admission to women, hamper their usefulness and their advancement. In the direction and control of school systems women have little voice, although they fill with efficiency and devotion the ill-paid ranks of teachers. We reiterate the demand for equality in education. “Women In 1545 demanded a single standard of morality. This single standard Is not yet a fact anywhere in the world. We reiterate the demand for a single standard of morality. “Women in 1845 demanded equality in trades and professions. Such equality has ni_ yet been won. Women are still the drudges of the home, of the factory, of business and of professions. “Women in ISIS demanded the right to be tried by Judges of th-lr peers. ,Today. In almost half our States, women are still tried by juries on which no member of their sex may sit. We reiterate the demand for Juries of our peers. “Women in 1545 demanded equal rights for mothers and wives in the control of their children, property, earnings and labor. Today the service of wives still belongs to their husbands in certain States. Their earnings are his to dispose of as he wills, and in others children may be willed away from their mothers by the father. We reiterate the demand for equality of women with men under the law. “To accomplish this program, we hold it should be accomplished not only, within our own land, but throughout the world, for we recognize that so long as women anywhere are in subjection women are nowhere free. We urge women to stand fast together in solidarity, joining hands around the earth." The elm of this charter seems to be to clarify the program of the mtional woman's party. Its present task is to obtain lesrtx'ation. either through Congress or State Legislatures, which won!.’ remove Inequalities against women In all our laws. As thiy are doing this hv a “blanket” bill expected to remove all disunities at one fell swoop, they are being opposed by those who fear protective laws for women, especially those in industry, would be nullified. An interesting bit of news given out by the national woman's party says Mrs. Leopold Stokowsky has just become a charter member of the organization. Wife of the noted conductor of the Philadelphia orchestra and herself a well-known pianist. Mrs. Stokowsky was drawn into the party by invitation of Mary Garden, who. after joining herself very recently, urged ail her friends in musical circles to do likewise.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

Jidi^elncA, Sj LOUIS JOSEPH • Dm kjt LnR JoMtAVtott

To forget the bitter troubles of her domestic life. LUCINDA DRUCE, Fifth avenue society matron, accepts an invitation to visit the film studio of the famous screen star, ALMA DALEY. The visit Is suggested by lIARRY LONTAINE, who hopes to form a motion picture company In California. He is the husband of Lucinda's school girl chum. FANNY LONTAINE. On the trip to the studios on Ninth avenue, Lucinda muses over her break with her husband. BELLAMY. Wealth, youth, beauty, had failed to bring happiness to their Fifth avenue home after five years of married life. Bellamy's heavy drinking and promiscuous flirtatious had destroyed her early love for him. And now RICHARD DAUBENNY. her old sweetheart, had returned to New York. She tried to forget her personal affairs watching King Laughlin, the director, and Tommy Shannon, leading man, rehearse a scene.

CHAPTER Vlll—Continued. “Oh. Tommy Shannon!" said Mr. Lane equably—“ Tommy’s all right, he knows what he's doing. AI! you got to do is let Tommy Shannon alone and he’ll ring the gong every shot.” “But If that's the case, why did Mr. ; Laughton take so much trouble to show j him— ?” j • Well, you see, it's this way," Mr. Lane explained: “Kings all right, nnd Tommy's nil right, but if Tommy don't see a scene the way King shows him, and King starts to bawl him out, why. Tommy 11 just walk off the lot. And then where are you? You can't finish your picture without your leading man, can you? And there's maybe a hundred thousand dollars Invested in this proposition already. One of the first things a director's got to learn in this game Is how to handle actors.” “I see,” said Lnrlnda thoughtfully. “The way to handle an actor is to let him have his own way.” "Yon got the idea." Mr. Lane *pproved without a smile. “But suppose.” she persisted—"suppose the leading man Insists on doing something that doesn't suit the part he's supposed to play?” “That's easy. What’s your continuity writer for?" "I don’t know, Mr. Lane. You eee, I don't even know what a continuity writer is." “Why, he's the bird dopes out the continuity the director works from—you know, the scenes in a picture, the way they come out on the screen: Scone ‘one, scene two. and all like that. Moll, you get vour continuity writer, of course, and have him make the change." j “You rn.'iin yon change the story to | please the actor?" “Sure; It's the only thing to do when you got maybe $150.".T0 hung , up In a picture. “But doesn't that frequency spoil the story ?” “Oh. what's a story?” Mr. Lane ar gued reasonably. ‘Teople don't go to see a ptory when they take In an Alina I Daley picture. They go because they know they get their money's worth when | they see a Ben Culp production that's taken from sutne big Broadway success ! and costs $150,000 or maybe $200,000. But prim ip'ly, of course, they go to see Alma Daley, because she's the most pop lar actress on the screen, and makes more money than Mary I‘lckford. i There was a sudden deluging of the set with waves of artificial light of a weird violet tint, falling from great metal troughs overhead and beating In j horizontally from ttie metal stands or screens, which were now seen to be banks of incandescent tubes burning ! with a blinding glare. Nor was this all; shafts and floods of ; light of normal hue were likewise trained i upon the scene from a dozen different ’ points, until the btended rays, lent al- | most lifelike coloring to the faces of the i actors, whose make-up had heretofore I seemed ghastly and unnatural to unini- | tinted eyes, i “Camera!” The command came from King La ughI lin. Lucinda could Just hear a muffled I clicking. I Coached by Mr Laughlin, who danced nervously upon the side lines, the scene was enacted. ! “Now, Tommy, come on—slowly—hold | the door—look around, make sure the room is empty—hold it—now shut the door—up to the table—don't forget whore ;to put your hat—'srlght, splendid! Now ' you look at the other door—listen—show me that you don't hear anything—good! I Open the drawer—easy now, remember, ! you're trying not to make a noise—look ; for the papers—show me you can’t find | them. My God I where can they be! That's it. Now, you bear a noise off- ! f Ready, Alma’.)—shut the |to pick up your hat—too latsl Como on, i Alma—come on! You don't she him, you i look out of the window nnd sigh—lot's ; gee you sigh, Alma —beautiful! beautiful! Now. Tommy, you move—she sees you—see him, Alina. Slowly—hold it- woner- ‘ fill: Now call to him, Alma- Egbert! ! Egbert!" The little man's voice cracked with the j heart-rending pathos he infused into that cry; he continued to dance and bark dl- ’ rectiona at star and lending man till the door closed behind Miss Daley’s frantic exit. “Good! Now we'll Bhoot the close-ups" The camera was brought forward and tralne 1 at short range on the spot where Miss Daley had fallen; several stands of banked lights likewise were ndvnnccd and adjusted. The actress lay In a broken heap with her face buried on ber arms.

She Set Her Arm* Akimbo. Her Rye* flwii With Kaiofm Lightning*. the camera once mors began to dick and Mr. King Laughlin squatting by Its side, prepared to pul' the young woman through the scene by sheer fores of his inspired art. Hut now the passion which before had kept him hopping and screaming had passed into a subiiued and plaintive phase: Mr. l.aughlin was suffering for and with the heroine whose woes were to he projected before the eyes and into the hearts of half the world. He did not actually cry. but his feature# were knotted with the anguish that wrung hia heart, and nis voice was thick with sobs. "Now, dear, you're coining to—you just 10t your head #ntl look up, dazed.

You don't realize what’s happened yet, you hardly know where you are. Where am I, my God! where am 1? That's it — beautiful. Now it begins to come to,you. He has cast you off—O my God! he has deserted you. Fine —couldn’t be better —you're great, dear, siiqply great. Now go on —begin to cry, let the big tears well up from your broken heart and trickle down your cheeks. Fine I Cry harder, dear—you must cry harder, this scene will go all flooey if you can’t cry any harder than that. Think what he was to you—and now he has left you—who knows?—perhaps for-ev-er! Your heart is breaking, dear, It’s breaking, nnd nobody cares. Can t you cry harder? Listen to the music and • • Good God! how d'you expect anybody to cry to music like that?" The last was a shriek of Utter exasperation ; and bounding to his feet the little man darted furiously at the musicians, stopping in front of the trio and beginning to boat time w'th nn imaginary baton. . "Follow me, please—get this, the way I feel It. So-ulowly—draw It out—hold it—get a little heart-break into it!” And strangely enough he did manage to Infuse a little of his fine fervor into the three. Throughout, on the floor before the camera, under that cruel glare of lights, Alma Daley strained her face toward the lens and cried as if her heart must surely break, real tears streaming down her face—but cried with fine Judgment, never forgetting that woman must be lovely even in woe. While Lucinda watched, a strange Tolee saluted her. In Lane’s place sat a stout man of middle age with a sanguine countenance of Semitic type, shrewd and hard but good humored. ‘‘How d'you do?" he said geninlly. “This Is Mrs Druce, ain't It? Culp's my name, Ben Culp.” CHAPTER IX. Os a sudden Mias Daley missed her mentor's voice, and in the middle of a sob ceased to cry precisely as she might have shut off a tap. In a moment of uncertainty, still con-

The ADVENTURES of mLn Raggedy Raggedy Ann and Andy j§|l| By JOHNNY GRUELLE

"May we come into your house and see how you live?'’ Raggedy Andy asked of Mister Muskrat. "Why, Andy." Raggedy Ann laughed, ’’don't you know that Is very impolite?" Raggedy Andy flggetod his foot about in the eand and did not know Just what to say, but Mister Muskrat patted him upon the back and laughed. “That's all right, Raggedy Andy. I was Just about to ask both of you inside for it looks to me is if we were about to have a heavy rain, and if you stay out in the rain 1 am sure yout , rag bodies will get very soggy." And with this Mister Muskrat led th* way into his kitchen. “Isn't it nice and cozy in here?" Raggedy Ann exclaimed. "It is so quiet , you can hardly hear any of the sounds from tho creatures along the Looking , glass Brook." "That's one reason why I like it," Mister Muskrat answered, lead : lng tho way up a long hall into a large room. “This Is my living room.” And he pulled out two little chairs for the Kaggcdys and took nn easy chair him self. After lighting his muskrat pipe, the funny dumpy creature crossed his feet and leaned back comfortably. “Yes, ! indeedy. Timothy Turtle is a queer lit - : tie fellow, and all his turtle relatives aro queer little creatures, too. But then,' I continued Mister Muskrat, “probably Timothy Turtle and his relatives think : every one else is queer, too. And I guess it is Just as well that we do think that way, for if we didn't we'd probably lie discontented and want to be hanged into something else. And that ts Just how the Turtle family happen to be as . qneer as they are. For, once upon a time, the turtles were almost like the Hoppytoads and th# Greenfrogs, except | that the Turtle* could not hop as fat i as the Frog' THten when larger creatures came the streams where the Turtles and Hoppytoads and Frogs lived ; the Turtles could not get into the water as fast as the Greenfrogs. "And so, when Old Mister Skooligsn. 1 the Magician, came along one day, th# Turtle family ail cried, Oh, Mister Skooligan, the mosquitos bite up upon our backs nnd we can t bop fast enough to get away from them, and when Old : Mister lleron comes along looking for dinner, we can’t hop fast enough to get away from him. Can you give us some magic medicine which will make out backs so hard the mosquitoes can’t bite us and Old Mister Heron won’t lie able to eat us for dinner.’ And Old Mister Skooligan. the Magician, he winked hi* eyes behind his glasses and he chuckled to himself: Tlunnn! Loss see!" musin' like, nnd then he took out his magic poeketbook with two magic suspendot buttons and three glass beads in it and touched each Turtle upon the back. ‘There!’ he said, ’Now the mosquitoes can't bit you, and Mister Heron won't care to eat you!’ And away he walked. And so," continued Mister Muskrat as he puffed the smoke up around the ceiling. “the Turtle family got Jyst what they asked for. but not exactly what they wanted, and, while they have very hard backs, they got very tired carrying such heavy loads about twltb them all the time." "They should hare been satisfied!" said Raggedy Andy, "then probably Old Mister Skooligan would have changed them to something even better without them asking for a change!" “And that’s why all the Turtle family are so slow and sleepy!” mused Raggedy Ann. “I’ve wondered how they became that way!" “But there's one thing about the Turtles!” sail Mister Muskrat. "If they start out to do anything, they keep plodding away until it is done!" “Do thp Turtles have any homes besides the ones they eorry upon their backs?" asked Raggedy Andy. “No!" laughed Mister Muskrat. “Unless where they bury themselves in the mud at the bottom of the streams in the winter time could be called homes!" “Then too,” lie added. “A lot of the Turtles come into our warm houses for the winter and pull their heads and feet into their shells and sleep!" “It is kind of yon to let them stay with you ail winter. Mister Muskrat!" Raggedy Ann said. "Well." Mister Muskrat replied, "The Turtles come In very handy to us at times during the winter!" Raggedy Ann nnd Raggedy Andy laughed at this and asked TIow?" "Lots nnd lots of times we Muskrats have parties and then we use the sleeping turtles for seats and they never know It at ail!"

You include your husbands thanks as well.

fronting the clicking camara, still bathed in that withering blaze, she cast about blankly for her runagate director. Then discovering that lie had, Just like a man ! deserted her in her time of trouble to follow a band, outraged womanhood assorted itself. The fiery crpature .who sprang to her feet with flashing eyes and scornful mouth was hardly to be Identified with the forlorn little thing who, only a few seconds since, had been groveling and weeping on the floor. As one who find: the resources of her mother tongue inadequate, Miss Daley In silence fixed with a portentous stare the back of King Laughlin, who, all ignorant of the doom hovering over his devoted head, kept on swaying airily to fnd fro, smiling his ecsiatic stnlle and measuring the music with fluent hands. One of the Daley feet began to tap out the devils’ tattoo, she set her arms skimbo, hor eyes were quick with baleful lightnings, her pretty Ups nn ominous line; an ensemble that only too clearly foretold: At any minute, now! With a smothered grunt, Mr. Culp heaved out of his chair and lumbered over to h!s wife, interposing his bulk be tween her ajid the unconscious object of her indignation. Whatever- Culp said, it proved effectual; for nothing worse came of Miss Daley's wrath, at least publicly, than a shrewish retort inaudible to bystanders, a toss <>f her head, and a sudden, stormy flight from the cene. "That's the sort of thing you’re up against all a time in tho flllum bus! ness, d'y'see,” sighed Mr. Culp with a rueful grin. “A lot of kids, that's what we got to make pitchers with. Ami audiences ail a time ki. kin’ because we don't make 'em better. * * * A lot of kids!” Lontaine presented him to each of his guests; and thug reminded of the first purpose of their visit, which he seemed to have forgotten altogether, Mr. Culp delayed long enough to call r. worried young man with the eyeshade, Mr. Willing, and charged with supervision of the proposed tests. Continued In Our Next Issue.)

Just then Missus Muskrat came walking in with a basket upon her arm. "My! It's raining hard outside!" the said after shaking hands with the two rag dolls, You Ragged}.s had better stay all night with us!" "Thank you, Missus Muskrat V Raggedy Ann and Andy replied, "We will If It will not put you to n:iy bother!" “I'ear me, no!" laughed tho two Muskrats, "We have plenty of spare lcdruom!" And they took the two rag dolls and tucked them In little beds as comfortable ns could 1k and wishing them good-night. Mister nnd Missus Muskrat

And If wo are kind nnd unselfish, then those who meet us will be filled with good thoughts nnd love for us!" COMMITTEES OF G. O. P.

FINDS SHORT CUT TO FAME

MM Bfir •• Hes.cn

BY ROSA rONSET.EE. Until I wat *lxt*en I never had a vocal lesson. Those I have had since, I have had in America, under American teacher*. Because of my lack of foreign training I broke a precedent when I became a member of the Metropolitan Grand Opera Company four years ago. But I have been singing since I wa* old enough to talk —singing Is the most natural expression for me. I have often been at a loss for word*, but never for notes. I was born and spent my girlhood in Meriden, Conn. My parents bad come there ,/roin Italy, bringing with them their'native love of music. Our home was a very humble one and afforded no maid. Consequently my sister Oarmela and I at early ages became acquainted with housework. We learned that the period devoted to the dishwashing which must follow each meal could be made much more bearable if we sang as we splashed tho soapy water. Ttio same principle held good in sweeping and dusting. So the more housework we did, tho more we sang, nnd the more vigorous the work, the more volume wo put info our voices. If we did not develop into good housekeepers by this mothod at least we did learn the comforts and solace of music and the Joy of expression. My piano lessons, which began when I was six, were also accompanied with much vocal effort as I mastered my scales and technique. When I was ten my sister.

A few general rules apply to all vacations. First, you should get away from home and business if possible. It isn’t necessary to go a long distance, but it is essential to get into the open. And then forget business. If you go camping, don’t be careless concerning sanitary conditions. Inquire as to the safety of your water supply. Find out about sewage and the methods of disposal. Look into the source of your milk supply. Are there swamps, ponds or other mosquito breeding spots near your camping place? Having settled these questions satisfactorily, make suro that you spend the precious vacation time sensibly. Keep good hours. Don’t waste precious time indoors at a card table, but Improve yov.r health and strength by exercise in the open air. Try these directions this summer and you will find you can come bagk from your vacation ready to eat up work.

We were both making plenty of money, but we decided to quit and devote all our time to study. When I was taking lessons, occasionally my teacher would mention the Metropolitan, but I always thought ho was Joking. Os course, it was my goal, but I was prepared to wait.

spring he arranged for me to sing before Gatti-Casazza at the Metropolitan. The next high spot in my life came when I made my Metropolitan dohut in “Forza del Destlno," with Caruso in tho cast. I Joined the Metropolitan without an operatic role in my repertory. In a very short time I had to learn a numter. and in the months following my engagement there I worked harder than I ever worked In my life. I've slaved ever since. My story of “How I Did It," you see. is Just the record of a poor girl who was forced by circumstances to rcao*, her goal %y a different path than the accepted one. The only reason T toll it is because I hopo it may encourage girls who have more ambition than money, and those who foel that European training is out of tho question.

You'll have to get your own breakfast in the morning. Jack!” “Why—what did you say?" Jack was so astonished that ho dropped his dish towel. It occurred to me that he never had got his breakfast in his life. “I'm going to the station at 7 in the morning,” I announced ns casually as If 1 were accustomed to meet an early train daily. “Why—what for. Pegglns?" “I'd rather not tell you. Jack. It’s not my secret!” Now there was no reasbn on earth why I should not explain everything to Jack. But I did not. I excused myself to myself by saying that the rehearsal had been too much for me and washing dishes at midnight was irritating. But in my heart I knew that tho reason I refused to say where I was going alone early in tho morning was Mrs. Herroa's letter! In that little matter my husband was living right up to our pre nuptial agreement. He assumed 1 had no right to know that another woman was writing to him regularly. Well. then.
