MR- LLOYD GEORGE'S
GREAT SPEECH AT MANCHESTER.
: Marking Historical Places The marking of the place where Oliver P. Morton,was born in old Salisbury by the Richmond chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution is a project worthy. of the commendation of the whole community." The .historical significance of the place needs no elucidation. It is one spot in Wayne county that by all means should be appropriately marked so that future generations will not forget it. As time passes the exact location of historical places sometimes become hazy. Some doubt has been expressed as to the authenticity of the popularly believed house in which Gov. Mor
ton was born. . Members of his family, however,
have accepted the structure as the place where the illustrious war governor was born, and the
family tradition will have to be accepted as conclusive in the absence of convincing proof to the contrary.
The incident, however, illustrates how quickly the identity and location of places of historical interest may be lost or clouded. Fortunately, the Morton birthplace may still be identified by members of his own family.

I oiiien and the Ballot National League of Women Voters Espouses Amendment : ; -to Constitution Forbidding Child Labor.
By FREDERICK J. HASKI-V WASHINGTON., D. C Oct. 28. With one great legislative "victory the passing of the Cable law making a woman's citizenship a thing independent of her marriagethe Nationr.l League of Women Voters .will : take up as its next -objective an adoption of an amendment to. the constitution forbidding child labor. " The announcement of the campaign, to begin in ear est this wintes-while 42:state legislatures are in session, Sae been mado by Mrs. Maud-Wood Park, president of the league. ' Ever since. the existing; child-labor laws were declared unconstitutional by the supreme court, there has been a widespread sentiment in the country in favor of writing into the constitution itself a provision for the protection of children from the exploitation or factory owners But though the moral support of the public has been present, the movement for a constitutional amendment has lacked an organization to crusade for it. Constituional amend
ments nowadays are put across by oi4 ganized effort, as the members of th National League of Women Voters are aware, they themselves ..having constituted the bulk of the non-militant equal suffrage organization' which shared in the successful crusade to give women the ballot.; With its five million members, the league is looking forward to a busy winter as it opens the campaign for a child-labor amendment. ' " There are five resolutions now pend ing before Congress, each one providing ,for a child-labor amendment to be submitted to the states for ratification. The National League of Women Voters has not yet endorsed any one
of these. All are being studied, and eventually the league will either get behftd one of them, or have a new on' drawn and introduced in congress as a resolution.. Meanwhile a campaign will be started throughout the United States in -favor of such an amendment. With all but two of the state legislatures in session, the attempt will be made to deluge congre3 witV resolutions, adopted by these legislatures in favor of child-labor amendment. : In addition, ; the women will work directly upon congress with petitions and in committte , hearings in Washington. . The uomen expect to secure the adoption of suh an. amendment and that at no remote date in the future. Their attitude toward the successful outcome of their, newest campaign is something , more than one of confidence. It is a complete assurance oi victory. As one of the general officer3
expres9ed.it: "Any reasonable thinl that the women of America' want olj congress they can. get." i No Othet Issue ' j More Important. The announcement that the . league would take up the campaign for a child-labor nmendment came after Mrs. Park and other efficers of the organization had made a thorough tour of the country sounding out the sentiment of Jhe women voters. It Is evident that the women of the .Country place no national issue ahead of the protection of factory children. While awaiting the adoption of a federal amendment, the members of the league intend to see to it that aM existing state child-labor laws are en forced. Many of "the states already have laws forbiddirs: the commercial employment of children of tender years. In states which have no legislation of the sort that the league considers adequate, the women will work for the adoption of additional laws.The League for Women Voters Is th". natural outgrowth of the suffrage organization which for so many years battled for the ballot.. Now. having socured the vote, the organized women
of the country are going ahead to se
votes, the next important thing is to educate them to vote intelligently and thus confound the former male "anti's" who held, openly or not, that women do not know enough to vbte. Being Educated In Politics. ', In being "educated" in politics, it may be said that hundreds of thousands of American women are having a splendid time. It has always been assumed for them that they knew by instinct how to cook and bring up children but lacked the instinct for politics that is man's birthright. The women "themselves are perfectly willing to accept all these assumptions. Im their own hearts they know thai they had to learn cooking and the care of the children; and so it Is restful not to be expected to know politics by instinct, but to be the object of male concern - that they be properly
educated. The process of civic education they are finding pleasant. It gives them club life and undomestic interests and activities, and they are basking in the enjoyment of it. Equal suffrage has now been in effect long enough to make valid certain generalizations. No millennium has resulted; none was expected by the intelligent leaders of the equal suffrage movement. The country in its politics wags along about the sama as ever. In proportions, the Ignorant vote is as. large a3 ever, the Intelligent as small. Ony the numbers of ballots havfe increased. ; But one rather unexDected discovery
has been made, one attribute of women as voters brought to light which with plenty of exceptions to prove the rule, distiguishes them from men. The attribute Is this: women are distrust
ful of political orators and oratory. The good, fast talker in polities who once had the voters flocking after him is now wearing a dazed and puzzled expression; the spellbinder seems to have mislaid his formula. . The plain face is, as shown by two years of experience, gentle woman as a voter is just plain hard-boiled. Men voters are always seeking a Moses in
pontics: the women demand to see
what he has written on his tablets of
stone. This attitude is plainly an in heritanee of their domestic life. It goes right back to the dress-goods counter in the department store. The gentlemanly clerk there gives his customer an argument that would convince nine men out of every 10. But nine women of every 10 listen with a thoughtful frown, meanwhile pinching and examining the goods, and then as a matter of course visit all the other dressgoods departments in town before purchasing. In politics they act the same way. They have not been dazzled by dema gogues or misled by magnetic presences, as some statesmen feared they would be. On the contrary, they have
deliberately "shopped" for tickets and
candidates.. This they have done by means of formal printed questions submitted to all candidates for various jobs and in mass meetings of women
which the candates were invited to at.
tena.
One other innovation of the women
voters has been welcomed by con
scientious office-holders. The women voters are adopting a practice of hold-
lng mass meetings about six months after new office-holders get their job3

No. 295 The Balanced Match Boxes Three match Ixixes are placed on end, as shown in the figure. The performer holds them cleverly balanced at difficult angles, and is Riven credit for being a very good juggler. There is, however, a trick to the performance, which makes it absolutely impossible to fail. The right hand holds the first box and as the left hand tets its box on top of tbe first box, the left forefinger pushes down the drawer of its box. This drawer in turn pushes down the drawer of the lower box and thus the boies are "look cd." The third box is placed on top, and is "locked" to the second. The boxes may now be easily balanced. In conclusion, the right hand pushes all of the drawers back in one push, and the boxes are allowed to fall from the .hand. CopvrioM, lilt, tu Public Ledtrr Comnatm
TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can," "Take It," "Up" CLOSE YOUR ' BOOKS DAILY i ,- - - Your trouble may be that you are living yesterday today. You lost something or missed something that you thought you were going to get or were entitled to, and today you are drugging your mind with this business or regret. In the popular phrase, come out of it! Today Is today none other. Start your books all over. Begin on clean pages. And when this day is over, leave no accounts unbalanced. Close your books daily. Get in the habit of reviewing each one of your days. Compare your gains or losses with the previous day. But if you find a loss, don't carry it over into your next day. Make each day stand its own loss or gain. Then pass into your next, fresh in determination and enthusiasm. ( Live the full measure of your life In the spirit of completeness. Weave your days as though each were to be a thread for a finished article as though each was necessary to make up one long, precious strand. . The waster or occasional worker is living an incomplete life In the full sense of the word. He never closes anything for he keeps no books! . That business is very much worth while that knows exactly where it stands, one way or the other, at the close Of each working day. You, therefore, -who are a business unto yourself, how much more important to know at .any timejust where you stand in strength and power. It takes less effort and is much more inspiring to go forward
than to turn and go over past ground. Remember that!

SIR GEORGE YOUNGER
The person phiefly responsible for
the recent . resignation of Premier Lloyd George is Sir George Younger, a
Scotsman, chairman of the Unionist or
Conservative party
o r g a n i z ation in
Great Britain. Sir
George, who is 71,
is possessor of a
large fortune made
in the brewing in
dustry and banking, is a hard fighter and for months
had been openly
planning the down
fall of the premier.
Sir George took
the position that he
peprese nted the
rank and file of the Unionist party in
desiring to cut loose from the Liberals, of the present coalition. He contended the interests of the country and empire have been steadily sacrificed in the process of compromise necessary between factories which diverge greatly on principles of government. He felt only a return to strict
party responsibility would save the
day for Great Britain. He believed the Conservatives could
win against the Labor party on a
straight fight, but was willing to risk even a Labor ministry rather than follow what he called the present drifting policy. Under his direction a large number of the Unionist members of parliament have declared that in the
next election they will decline to fuse
with the Lloyd George Liberals and
will seek seats as straight Unionist
candidates.

The New World Beginning
Sunday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock
Mr. C. C. Peoples, of Dayton, Ohio,
will deliver a free lecture at Dennis Junior H. S. on the subject "The New
WTorld Begun." He will explain from Biblical prophecy now being fulfilled that the old world has come to an end and that the new world has begun, and that this will bring blassings and life to the people and that millions
now living will never die.
Trouble has a tendency to make the
peoples' of earth think. For eight
years they have suffered greatly. The
lecturer will point out that this has
been permitted to awaken the people
to the fact that the old world is done
and the new is beginning.
The rulers of earth are desperately attempting by international conference
to patch up the old order.. The lec
turer will prove from Biblical prophecy that such is impossible and that the new world under the Messiah will establish a righteous reign, bringing the desire of the peoples and nations of earth. The International Bible Students at their great convention recently held at Sandusky, Ohio, adopted a resolution pointing out that world '"Beace, prosperity and happiness ' cannot be established by international conference, but showing that the Lord has a way to establish it The speaker tomorrow afternoon will explain why this resolution sets forth the truth and how the blessings will come to the people and that shortly, through the new world that is now beginning; and how it can be confidently said at this time that millions now living on earth will never die. Everyone should hear this lecture.
