Rides to Station in Police Wagon—Crowds Stare at Her. Winnifred Mason Huck. former Congresswoman and the first woman to preside over the House of Representatives sot herself sentenced to prison. Guiltless of any /trims, she sought answers to thg questions— Are our prisons humane? Can a girl, crushed by her fellow men, regain her place in society? This is the fifth story, written for The Times. By Winnifred Mason Huck Former Representative to Congress from Illinois. Her naifie was Angeline, and she looked angelic, this 15-year-old confessed murderess. As I write this, she Is still in prison awaiting trial. It was about 5 o’clock In the morning when her picture was taken, and on the train to Marysville at half past eight. It looked out at me from the front page of a morning newspaper. I had gone to the Cleveland jail the middle of January. If the sun ever penetrated that damp, smoky curtain which overhung the city, we could not see it through those dirty windows of the Jail. More than once I speculated about the sun. A little before 8 o’clock I was told to get ready to leave. There was really nothing to get ready. My hat was hanging outside the cell, and I shuddered to think of the liberties those enormous cockroaches probably were taking with it at that very moment. Susie and I And then a few moments later, Susie Williams, a large, jolly negro girl who was In for bootlegging, and I were called to the gate. We were told to step Into the hall, where we found Mrs. Mary MoGrail, a pleasant-looklng field officer, talking to one of the policemen and signing some papers, probably receipts for us. They did not handcuff us. They gave me njy traveling bag, which had been brought to the police station, packed with a few clean and rather old clothes. It had been searched and repacked, so carelessly that the garments were In an unwearable state when I took them out. We went throi gh a long, dark, badly lighted tunnel. In the care of Mrs. McGrail and two policemen. At the door I had the first breath of fresh air In three days. The day was dark, with a cold drizle that froze through one’s clothes and seemed to clutch at one's heart. But that breath, free of prison stench, was like a message straight from Heaven. The Wagon Two policemen stood at attention at the police wagon. We were hurried into the wagon, and the ride to the railroad station began. The ride was a short one. And at the end of it, the ordeal was harrowing. Curious people watched us get out of the wagon. Mrs. MoGraJl and

the policemen hurried us into the station, where she bought the tickets. For ten minutes I ran the gamut of shame and humiliation and degradation. Everyone in the station walked past us, craning his neck to see the two women in charge of the officers. Brows went up and lips curled In sneers. I dropped my head and looked at the floor, but I could feel eyes burning into my back. Matron Offers Candy On the train, Mrs. McGrail opened a box of very good candy, explaining that somebody had given her a large box which she could not eat all by herself. Together, she and I worked a crossword puzzle on the train, while Susie munched candy. When we left the train at a small station, we took a taxi for Marysville, which was about twenty miles away. As we approached the prison, Ii noticed that there were no walls about the place. It was merely a group of good looking buildings, surrounded by farm land in an excellent state of cultivation. Before I had seen all I wanted to see, we were brought up with a rush at the front door- It swung back, and In a moment we were in. I had made the goal. My prison experience lay before me. Shudders of apprehension ran over me, at the thought of new horrors, new filth, new bars and bolts and sharp commands. I tried to comfort myself by the reflection that nothing could be worse than the jail w'e had Just left. Already I had learned that nhysi cal discomforts can be borne much better than the sense that one is completely In the pow_jQ t another,

that one is utterly helpless to chert his own course. A Cowed Thing The smallest joys of free speech and free action assumed mammoth proportions, now that all freedom was taken away from me. I began to be the whipped, cowed thing that prisons make of men and women, even though injustice and cruelty do not exist. Susie and I sat down in the reception room. I wore a look of fright and stupidity. lam sure that no one would have doubted the authenticity of my prisoner role. And there we sat, Susie and I, awaiting the commands of our new masters.

Hardly had Melwllle Sartoris settled his party at a ringside table when with a murmured excuse he left us and I saw him speaking to the orchestra leader. When he returned to the table he said: “The next dance after this, Mrs. Prescott, will be a tango, and I give you fair warning that probably before we finish we will be doing exhibition dancing. I learned the tango In Argentine, and I have never known any woman outside of that country who can dance it with the sensuous grace and expert effectiveness that you have. We will probably be the observed of all observers.” ( “Do you hear that. Jack?” I said gaily. “I think I’d better warn you that If we ever lose our money, it is very probable that Mr. Sartoris and I will take up ballroom dancing.” “Go ahead, Leslie," said Jack, “and strut your stuff, for by the time we have lost our money you'll probably be a fat old woman with three or four more babies, and have forgotten that you were ever a delicate will-o'-the-wisp dancing about to the admiration of all beholders.” "Syd,” I pleaded, "can't you say something that will keep me from contemplating such a fate as my husband predicts for mo?” “I don’t think it is an untoward fate, Leslie,” said Syd. “The plump, adored mother of a large family of children is to me the most beautiful example of womanhood. The girl who dances the tango is nothing more than a promise that may never be fulfilled. The mother with one child upon her lap, one standing behind her chair, and two or three lolling at her feet is the consummation of woman's destiny." “Hear! Hear!” said Jack. "Do you know, Syd. that you’re just on the verge of getting married?” “Nonsense, old chap. I'll never marry.” “Well I’ll tell the world you’ve got all the symptoms, dear boy. When a man gets to the point where he is perfectly willing to keep the home fires burning for an over-plump wife and five or six children, you can make up your mind that he's contemplating marriage and pretty lonely, eh, Sartoris?” “I have never felt, Mr. Prescott that my loneliness could be dissipated by a large family. True, I might have had such dreams in my youth, but even at that time I was a little doubtful, you know.” The music began. Melville Sartoris held out his arms. I glided Into them, and we began to dance. As he had predicted, we were entirely alone on the floor, and when I was conscious of anything except the rhythm and the poetry of the dance, I heard a whisper close to my ear: . “Almost thou persuadest me to believe.” (Copyright, 1925, NEA Service, Inc.)

Martha Lee Says INTEREST IN FASHION RESULT OF LONG HABIT
This is written for the women, and to the men. It is an explanation of a mystery that has puzzled and exasperated men throughout the ages. The theme H. „n old, old one—the “clothes question. M
The men, of course, know the value of having a suit well pressed, shoes shined and collar clean. But with the average man clothes are a matter of necessity and comfort, rather than fashion. That is, they are these as far as his conscious mind is concerned. Women know that, although they would never admit it, mer have their little vanities about clothes. However, it is admitted fashion plays a larger part In the female world than in the male. The explanation is this: The feminine mind is so constructed that a becoming costume gives a woman the same feeling of self-confidence that a raise in salary gives a man. She need not be expensively gowned, necessarily. But if she looks her best if she looks better than the woman next to her she feels as if she could conquer the world. And before you condemn us for this vanity, Mr. Man, please remember that for centuries women had to depend upon their clothes and their faces to win them any advantages, because you men refused to believe they had minds worth considering. Conserving Clothes Dear Mias Le: I air. a woman 26 years old and have been married flvo years. My husband <loe not make very much money, so I cannot have pretty clothes like the other girls, and he thinks it is foolish to spend much on clothes, anyway. I like pretty things but I have to make most of mv clothes mysplf. I hare an o'n georgette dress and I want to dye it and make it over. What color do you think would be good to dye it? MRg T N s Navy blue georgette Is one of the most popular materials this season. Shades of tan and brown also are good. What Men Want Dear Martha Lee: The following Is written from my observation of human psychology, for girl a who want to please the men. The bc*t wav. girls is not to want to please tnem. But if you do—Boyg like a girl who.i* Jolly, cheerful, a good sport and a regular girl. One who is clean, mentally and physically, and one who does not run after them. Boys like to do their own pursuing. If you want to please the men. you must lead Ihmn a merrv chase and then let yourself be caugnt accidentally. If vou want the right kind of men. you must be as wise as Cicero and a* dumb as a fish. You must be up to the minute, a goon dancer. You must be independent. aid you must be 'sweet. \ou must be bashful and hold. For. girls, to tell you the truth, men do not know what they want, nor want it after they get it.

So I turned around and did what I wanted and never took a boy into consideration, wlpl 100 per cent results. Girls are made that way—wanting to ? lease men.

If you have not the will power to down this foolish Jealousy that threatens your life's happiness, you must suffdr the consequences. You realize. I suppose, that this fear of the man's looking at other women merely is the result of your feeling of Inferiority. Jealousy does not prove love.
