NEW REPUBLICAN CLUB FOR WOMEN OF MARION COUNTY IS BEING ORGANIZED
Believe State Has Need for More Workers Mrs. E. C. Bumpier Is Made President of Latest G. O. P, Organization. Anew Republican club for women la being organized as an outcome of the State Republican convention held in Indianapolis a few weeks ago. At that tin:-- the lack of interest of the women in general to all political affairs was discussed and the expression that Indiana was large enough for many more organized woman political workers was brought to light when Mrs. Edward F. White entertained a group of her friends and suggested they organize another woman’s Republican club, according to Sirs. E. C. Rmnpler, newly elected president of the club. At that time Mrs. White was appointed as temporary chairman of this new organization. A meeting of the charter members of the club was held Thursday afternoon and Mrs. Itumpler was elected president. Mrs Rum pier has been actively connected with political work of the Republican party, as manager for the Senator Harry S. New campaign. Mrs. Joseph B. Healing was elected first rice president and >{lss Eleanor P. Barker, second vice president. Miss Barker was the first president of the Indianapolis Woman’s Republican Club, and also conected with the campaign for Senator New's renomlnation. Mrs. Edward Franklin White was elected third vice president: Mrs. Charles O. Roemler, recording secretary; Mrs. E. R. Donnell, corresponding secretary, and Mrs. Frank A. Butler, treasurer. Mrs. White, In suggesting the organization of this club, said It bold no malice toward the other club, but she felt the field In Indianapolis and Marlon County is large enough to support more than one club. Mrs. Keallng declared there were no hard feelings between the clubs, and each would work for the good of the party without transgressing on the other’s rights. Several other members pressed the same views. The draft of the proposed constitution •was read, and suggestions asked. It will be presented in a completed state at the meeting Thursday afternoon. A board of twenty-two members is to be appointed by the president, representing eacb district and each township in Marion County The question arose as to whether the colored women should be admitted; some thought the colored women might like to organize a club of their own as an auxiliary to the new club. This question was to be decided by the constitution committee. Anew name for the club will be discussed at the next meeting. Two similar names have been submitted, “Seventh District Republican Club for Women" or “Republican Club for Women of the Seventh District.”

Those eyes whose haunted beauty had first laid claim to one’s humanity, were nohv black pools of pathos in a fact whose chalkiness was runneled by tears. Lucinda started back to the door, but the woman plunged down to grovel at he* feet. “Oh, Mrs. Druce! I’m all right now, I am, I swear I am! Forgive me. and for God's sake don't turn me out. don't cal] the police! Did I hurt him bad?” “Desperately,” Lucinda replied. “Whether he'll live or not, we don’t know yet.” “You left him that way! O, my God!” “Are you reproaching me?” Lucinda retorted in amazement —”as if it had been I who shot your husband!” “My husband!” Nelly shrilled. “It’s yours I’m talking about, it's Mr. Druce.

Nelly cried. “He isn’t that sort. I don't know what the trouble was between you two, but it wasn't another woman. Mr. Druce never ns much as held my hand.” Lucinda stood pitiful, contemplating the creature who huddled in the chair, shivering, whimpering a little, gnawing her knuckles, with the dazed eyes of an animal hunted to Its last gnsp.

Lucinda was making up her mind to help a sinner circumvent the Justice of the social order * • • The telephone sonnded a peremptory call. Lucinda, answering, heard the voice of her chauffeur. When Lucinda hung up she found Nelly slowed round In the chair. “That was inspiration. I've arranged to let you steal my car. You can leave it wherever yon think it safe to get aboard ft train. You can drive, of course?” Nelly nodded. “Are you strong enough to drive the car yourself?” Lucinda misdoubted for perhaps the hundredth time though for the first openly. The woman on the bed gnve her hand a small Jerk of petulance. “Don’t worry." she insisted. “I'll be all right. I can drive any make of car there is.” “Where will you go?” “North, by the Coastal I might go right through to Frlaeo.

Lucinda promised Nelly to get rid of Bel as soon as she could, and In return exacted the girl’s promise to rest. Then j Lnclnda shut herself out into the sitting room. Bel's light motor coat him? from his shoulders, with empty sleeves, thus disguising that right arm in a sling. His features were drawn and gray, but I his eyes keen, steady and (Lucinda made sure, looking sbarply) wholly unsentimental. “You look fearfully tired, Bel.

She’s bound to tell her story In self defense; as she’s good-looking enough to be acquitted. In six months she'll be starring in a film based on a re-hash of this pretty little affair.” “Then you will help me? I can count on you, Bel?” Bellamy started excitedly. “Mean to say you know where Nelly is?” “She’s here, Bel. She came to me, half-mad with anxiety on your account.” “In there?” Bellamy nodded toward the bedchamber arid, receiving a nod in reply, strode quickly to the door and threw It open.

I had to rent so many things most of the other girls possessed With the party bills came the one for the fox scarf. If was 5157.30.

Sister Mary's Kitchen Iced Tea There is no more refreshing drink for a hot day than freshly brewed iced tea. I’tuin "green" tea does not make good iced tea. A mixture of green and black teas makes a very acceptable drink and any good black tea can be used. Iced tea must be brewed as carefully as iiot tea. Too,strong tea, allowed to cool and weakened with cold water, tastes no more like properly made iced tea than this same concoction, reheated and served hot, would taste like freshly brewed tea. ICE TEA. Four teaspoons tea, four cups boiling water, cracked ice. Put tea in tea bail. Pour boiling water in teapot to heat thoroughly. Pour out water and hang tea ball iu pot. Pour over freshly boiling water. Let stand five minutes to steep. Fill glasses with cracked ice. Pour ten directly upon ice. Tea made this way is clear and fragrant as hot tea. Wheq tea stands to cool the infusion becomes cloudy and loses its sweetness. A sirup is economical to serve in place of sugar with iced tea. Sugar dissolves slowly in a cold liquid. Many delicious drinks are made with j iced tea as basis. Lemonade made with j half water and half tea is more refreshing than plain lemonade. Te'a and grape juice, tea and ginger 1 ale, tea and orange Juice, tea and fruit j Juice combined with lemon juice—ail these combinations are refreshing and economical. Small crisp cooking or tiny plain bread nnd 'butter sandwiches are suitable to serve with a simple drink on a warm j afternoon.—Copyright, 1922. WHITE AND GOLD.

As Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy sat near the Lemonade Spring with Missus Witchie who owned the - Magic Park, and as they were eating cream puffs and drinking lemonade, they heard the Mince Pie Merry-go-Round music start to play and looking across the field towards it, they saw it whirling faster and faster, "I wonder If Geegee, the little ticket man has forgotten that yon haven’t fixed the Mtnce Pie Merry-go-Round yet," Raggedy Ann bald to Missus Witchie. “May be he has forgotten that it ran too fast, “Missus Witchie replied as she ate the Inst of the cream puff. “Maybe wo had better walk over their and see." Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy fol-' lowed Missus Witchie over to the Mince Pie Merry-go-Round and although it vat whirling so fast they could scarcely see anything, still Missus Witchie said, “It looks to me as if Geegee was sitting on the Cbicolate candy cow. Frobably it would be best if I stopped the Mince Pie Merry-go-Ronrid.” Above the sound of the music of the Mince Pie Merry-go-Round Raggedy Ann, Raggedy Andy and Missus Witchie could hear who ever it was on the Merry-go-Hotind shouting something. "It sounds ns if be wanted it to go faster.” doesn’t It?” asked Missus Witchie, holding one hand to her car, cup fashion, to hear plainer. “No,” Raggedy Ann replied, “whoever it is wants it to stop.” “Here comes Mister Geegee, the little ticket man now,” cried Raggedy Andy, pointing to where the Mttle fellow was walking up the path toward them. “Then It isn’t Geegee on the Mcrry-go-Round,” said Missus Witchie. “Did you start the Mtnce Pie Merry-go-Round ?’’ asked Geegee, the little ticket man, as he came up to Raggedy Andy. “No,” Raggedy Andy replied, “we were eating lovely cream puffs and drinking the cold lemonade when we heard the music of the, merry-go-round. We thought maybe you had forgotten that Missus Witchie hadn't fixed the merry-go-round to run slowly and that you were taking another ride.” “I do not know who it can be,” said Geegeo, 'T gave no one permission to ride upon the merry-go-round nnd. he stopped and wiped his forehead with a large red bandana hankie, “I can't stop in now. for. when Raggedy Andy pulled the stop lever before and threw us nil off. he pulled it so hard he bent it way over and I took the lever off to siraighten it.” “Why not put the lever on and stop the Merry-go-round?" asked Raggedy Ann. '•Because.” Geegee replied, “You can't put ;he lever on when the Mince l’le Merry-go-round is running.” “Then whoever is on the Mince IMe Merry-go-round must have started 16 himseif and then Jumped on," said Raggedy Andy. “I suppose thnt la Just what he did," Missus Witchie said. “And it is wound up te run until tomorrow evening.

"Cant we poke gome sticks In the cog wheels and stop it?” asked Raggedy Andy. “I guess that is what we will have to do," Missus Witchie answered “But Jou know What will heppen.

WASHINGTON, June 9.—The first “official” wedding of the Harding Administration will take place In the Bethlehem Chapel Jot Washington Cathedral Saturday afternoon, when Miss Calherine Hughes, daughter of Secretary of State and Mrs. Charles Evans Hughes, will become tho bride of Chauneey Lockhard Waddell of New York. The ceremony, .which will be performed In the presence of President and Mrs. Harding and high officials of the diplomatic corps, will be followed by a reception at the Pan-American Building, where Washington society and officialdom will hnve a chance to greet the couple. Because of the small size of the chapel in the uncompleted cathedral, and the “necessity” of inviting to the wedding the chief official and diplomatic dignitaries, hosts of the bride’s closest friends coulii not be asked to the ceremony proper. Hence the function. Uni mediately following, at the Pan-Amer-ican. Educated at an Episcopal school, Miss Hnghea herself is an avowed Episcopal-
Pie Merry-go-round stopped and again the legs of all the>candy animals broke off and scattered the animals all about the field. And when things stopped rolling, who should Raggedy Ann and Andy see, but old Mister Minky sitting upon the ground holding his head. “Ouch, my head,” he howled, “I bumped it on the hard back of the canty horse," and Indeed, our friends could se% that Minkie had a large bump upon his head. “Poor Minkie,” Raggedy Ann cried, she felt so sorry for Minkie she forgot the trouble* he had caused her. She forgot all about Minky having her Wishing Pebble. All Raggedy Ann thought of was helping him If she could, so she ran to him and lifted him to his feet. “When Minky saw that it was Raggedy Ann, was he grateful for her sympathy? Not even a teeny, weeny bit. Instead ha stamped his foot and cried, “You did it, Raggedy Ann. It was you who made

the Merry-go-round whirl so fast and it was you who stopped It and made me ily off and bump my head. I'll teach you.” And with this, the naughty little fellow picked Raggedy Ann up ana scampered across the field, holding her under his arm. “Catch him," cried Itaggedy Andy. “He wants to take Raggedy Ann's candy heart.” Raggedy Andy could run pretty fast, Missus Witchie could run a little fagter, and Geegee left them both behind, but Mlnkv, with his long legs could run faster than Geege and soon left Geegee far behind. “Oh dear! What shall we do?" Raggedy Andy cried as toars started from his shoe button eyes. “We will never see Raggedy Ann again.” “Let’s not be too sure of that,” laughed Missis Witchie. “You see. Raggedy Andy, it Is easy for any one to get into my .Magic Park, but it is very hard for them to get out and there is only one place where they can get out. "Lpt ns go there and wait for Mister Minky. And.” continued Missus Witchie. “We can soon make him come to that place.” Missu Witchie pulled a tiny whistle from her pocket and blew upon it and Immediately two candy dogs ran up to her. "Find Minky and bring him to the gate,” she said. The two candy dogs barked sweetly and ran In the direction Minky had carried Raggedy Ann. —Copyright, 1922.

HARDINGS GIVE PARTY FOR VETS FROMHOSPITALS White House Lawn Is Gay Scene in Spite of Ppthos. BY CONSTANCE DREXEL. WASHINGTON, June 9.—The only large function to be given this spring and summer in the White House took place when President and Mrs. Harding tendered a delightful garden party to about 2,000 wounded veterans of the World War, still quartered In Walter Reed and other hospitals in or near Washington. For an hour before 4 o’clock, traffic around the White House grounds waa stopped for the benefit of huge army trucks filled with stretchers for those unable to walk, and private cars loaned by people for the blind and other incapacitated men. Nurses came, too, most of them keeping to their picturesque uniforms almost as attractive in the bright setting of the gardens as the lacy gowns of Cabinet wives and other women present. War days were recalled; hundreds of times In every country there have been scenes where wounded men were cheered by rretty women. The President and Mrs. Harding were the hosts; the Marine band played on a platform in the midst of the grounds; fountains were Jetting cooling streams of water in the sunlight and the tall shaft of the Washington monument rose protestingly over all. Next to the receiving line where General Pershing helped President and Mrs. Harding, the most popular spots were the marquees where cool lees, lemon punch, cake and bonbons were being served with a lavish hand. Though there were blinded by the •core, and men with ond or two legs gone rolled around in wheelchairs by their nurses, nevertheless, the scene was not so pathetic as might be Imagined because of the hundreds of men apparently now in good health who were there because they have graduated fram hospital wards and are staying on to receive vocational training which will fit them for new positions. It was said about 2.000 veterans and nurces had been Invited, but only two or three hundred still wore the uniform of Uncle Sam. Most oft them were in civilian clothes. After the President and Mrs. Ilarding hnd shaken hands with every body who could pass in line, introduced by name as always by Colonel Sherrill or Commander Holmes, two of the popular White llouso aides, they thirstily quaffed ice water and then moved over to one of the automobiles parked in the White House grounds. Previous to their standing in line, they had walked around to shake hands and say a word to all the men in stretchers, but evidently they had missed this auto from Mount Alto. That is the place for tubercular patients, and in the car was a sad wan figure of a youth hunched on pillows. A priest was in the car and a woman, probably his mother. Anvhow, the was evidently in the last throes of tuberculosis of the hip and today's trip must have been a great exertion. He could hardly answer as the President nnd Mrs. Harding took his hand ami cheered him up, but his eyes smiled in answer nnd he will pass to the beyond all the happier for the afternoon.
Then there seemed to be a rush. Crowds l of the men surrounded the President.. What was it? Secret service men hopped ' around uneasily. It was nothing at all. The men. all of whom had been given j tags with the name of their hospitals as i ldnetlfication for entrance into Jthe White House, simply wanted autographs from the President. One of them had started it. and the idea caught such fire that ; both the President and Mrs. Harding were kept busy for an hour signiug cards which the men tore off of their conts. While there was plenty of sunshine and cheer most of the afternoon, yet there were pathetic scenes besides the one already described. One man n crutches, looking very ill from some internal suffering, was clasped by the arm by his' wife. She smiled proudly, but no sooner had they left the receiving line than she bad to put her handkerchief to her eyes, all the while trying to hide her tear.s from the man beside her. He did not look as if he could live long. Then there were blind men with children. Wounded men were allowed to bring their families. In one instance, a man with sunken eye sockets who did n. c try to hide his infirmity by dark glasses was tossing up and down his little fairhaired child, about 2or 3 years old. She put her fingers to his eyes, or where they should Probably the father had never seen his little daughter. Still in another spot the Secretary of War, Mr. Weeks, was talking earnestly with two blinded men seated in a shady •pot. One of them had both hands off as well, and his face was badly mutilated. As Miss Laura Harlan, social secretary of tbe White House, put it, it was strictly a party for the soldiers. But of course a few close personal friends in official life were included, and all the Cabinet members and their families.

Fashion Hints BY MARIE BRAINARD. PARIS—The long skirt ha at last come into Its own. The fashion mentors decreed It should come back six months ago, but its arrival has been Blow and by degrees. But now it is in evidence on all sides. Some of the skirts reach to the ankles. Tho extremely short skirt Is no more to be seen except on the stage. The stocking makers and some of the male sight-seers do not relish the advent of the long skirt, but the fat ladies do; likewise those with broomstick legs. PARIS—The roll in the stocking (not bankroll) is not the style here now. Trimness ail around in women’s clothes seems to be the thing. It was the more or less careless girl who used to roK her stockings at the tO P- Now she wears garters—if sh’e needs them. Incidentally, the half-hose for women seem to be things of the past.
