Chautauqua Audience Votes to U rge Passage of Suffrage Bill
"Urge everyone to write or telegraph to your Indiana Congressmen and to the president asking for the immediate passage of the Suffrage bill," pleaded Miss Doris Stevens of the Woman's National Party, at the close of her lecture Thursday afternoon. . "I am proud that if women must be arrested unjustly and without cause and must serve sentence in unsanitary Jails, In order to gain for (womanhood her rightful place beside the men in making this world a fit place in which to bring up little children, that I have been one to do my part in this," said Miss Stevens, acd then smiling, she added, "I wear this little pin which is a model of my jail door, as a souvenir, but I do think it looks more like a French window." "When women of 73 and 82 are willing to go to jail for an ideal, and 6how that their hearts are still burning with the spirit of living for a cause it makes men realize that the cause will be won," said Miss Stevens. "But after the war has been won our problems will have just begun," she continued. "We want to take our place beside the men. . We want to make the world a fit place in which to bring up little children, for women never will stand for evils which crush out the lives of children. There are men in Congress now who know that women will not tolerate what they have stood for, and the last two votes it takes to pass the bill, for we have 61
and it requires C3, are more difficult to win than all the first 60 were. "When women shall come to sit In places of power, as they are coming to do more and more every day, they will find a more human way to settle, problems of the world than men have found, for even the women of Germany today are rising up against this thing called autocracy." The speech ended with tc unanimous vote of audience to send resolutions to the senators urging that the suffrage bill be passed at once.

INSTALL WIRELESS SYSTEM BETWEEN U. S. AND JAPAN
(By Associated Press TOKIO, July 30 The installation of a new high power wireless system between Japan and the United States is actively occupying the Department of Communication. Officials announce that the project is a result-in part of the very great congestion and delay in cable transmission which prevents the desired freedom of communication between Japan and the United States.
The present Japanese high power
wireless station communicates direct with Hawaii. The new station will work probably with a station on the
Pacific coast, the site of which will be near San Francisco, a distance of 4,600 miles. This will be one of the longest direct wireless services in the world. The estimated cost of a new wireless system is about $400,000. While another cable linking the two hemispheres is desired, a line from Japan to Guam alone would cost $3,000,000. It is expected that details of the new wireless project will be announced shortly. -
ORDER CONCERNING SUNDAY FOOD SALE
The following letter was received by Guy Gotschall, president of the Hotel and Restaurant Dealers' Association from H. E. Bernard, state food director. In regard to the sale of food in restaurants on Sunday, "Some confusion has been caused by the fact that public eating places are being called upon to sell food to private consumers on Sunday, when the consumer has neglected to make the purchase at the grocery store on Saturday. In order to clearly define the selling rights of the public eating houses open on Sunday, the Federal Food administrator for Indiana will allow the sale of prepared food only. "Any public eating place is allowed to. sell to the trade any prepared food which constitutes , a portion of the menu, but in no case shall a public eating place be used as a grocery store, meat market, or bakery, and allowed to sell articles commonly handled by these stores which are closed by regulation on Sunday. Any number of sandwiches may be prepared and sold to one party to be taken out of the place of business. This one item is included in this bulletin because of the fact that the different county administrators placed their own interpretation of the Sunday closing order upon the sandwich question, thus making -it very hard for the automobile traveling from county to county through Indiana."

"Our Exalted Cause is in Great Danger' Von Hintze Tells Press
(By Associated Press) AMSTERDAM, Aug. 23 "Our cause is an exalted one, but it is in great danger," Admiral Von Hintze, the German foreign secretary, told a conference of German journalists in Berlin, according to the Cologne Volks Zeitung. He asked them to co-operate with them. After asserting in what high esteem he held the press, the admiral said: "In these times the government, the press, and the nation must hold together with one aim to win the war. If these factors do not hold together we shall be beaten. "The post of foreign secretary is by no means a desirable one. All objections I had made to my appointment were dispelled and I have undertaken this responsible post. I am not
tackling my task with a bowed head or a heavy heart. "I shall always show the greatest consideration to the gentlemen of the press. You will hear nothing but facts from me, but I cannot always give all the facts. The entire truth at certain times does not serve, but harms the public interest. "I am not at all concerned regarding attacks either on my person or against the imperial policy. I am merely concerned with our cause. Our cause is an exalted one but it is in great danger. I therefore call on you to cooperate. The foreign secretary then had a confidential . talk with the newspaper men who represented the most important papers in Germany.

Hay Fever Chiropractic has been successful in removing the cause of Hay Fever to a large degree. In my practice I have seen it abated in the majority of instances, permitting the patient to remain at his work with but little annoyance, while in other instances a full restoration to normal conditions prevailed, with no return symptoms. Sufferers should not wait until the attack develops, but take Chiropractic in advance of the time the attack usually appears. After the case develops it is, of course, more difficult, to handle. Those who are unable to leave business for the lakes will find that Chiropractic offers a degree of relief that will be gratifying in the majority of instances. G. C. Wilcoxen, D.
