MELLIFICIA-Nov. 7.
Suffrapsts Jubilant Over Victory.
"Line's busy!" This was all -the
response vouchsafed when prominent
suffragists of the city were called this
morning. With such a victory for
suffrage, even Red Cross work was
forgotten for the moment and Red
Cross headquarters were almost de
serted when I stopped there.
As for social functions I am sure
that the only topic of conversation
about the luncheon tables and over
the knitting needles was this great
event in the history of suffrage.
Mrs. Draper Smith's friends are
teasing her about a dinner she prom
ised to give if suffrage won in New
York. Mrs. Smith is "game" and
plans to abide by her promise, but the
prospect is the suffrage dinner will
-.assume larger proportions than a pri
vate dinner party.
Mrs. H. C Sumney telephoned Mrs.
Smith at 7:30 this morning, "Is that
dinner going to be given tonight? I'm
ready to go now," she said. Both of
the women were too excited and
overjoy'ed to take a morsel of break
fast themselves.
Another suffragist friend twitted
Mrs. Smith, "I expected to go out of
town, but now I'm going to stay for
your dinner." Still another called,
"I'm ill in bed now, but I know I'm
going to be well enough to go to your
dinner.''
"What will I have for a center
piece?" counterquestioned Mrs.
Smith.
"You won't need any. We'll dance
on the table for the centerpiece if you
like," replied the jubilant suff.
Betrothal of Interest.
Mr. and Mrs. Richard C. Patter
son of Kansas City announce the en
gagement of their daughter, Miss
Mildred Patterson, to Charles N. Bull,
jr., of Brooklyn, a nephew of the late
Dr. William T. Bull of New York.
Miss Patterson attended Mrs. Dow's
school at Briarcliff, and for the last
year and a half has been engaged in
Red Cross work in the east. She is
a cousin of Miss Eugenie Patterson
and Mrs. Miriam Boyce of Omaha
and has often visited here. Miss
' Patterson Has two brothers, Richard
C, Patterson, jr., who is a captain
in the officers' reserve corps, and
Kenneth Patterson, connected with
the National City Bank of N(Sw York.
Mr. Bull is a son of Mr and Mrs.
Charles M. Bull of Brooklyn, his
father being one of the pioneers of
V Crescent Athletic club, and he is
a prominent tennis player. He is a
member of the banking firm of Bull
& Eldridge in Wall street. Last sum
mer he received his commission as
captain at the Plattsburg training
camp and is now stationed at Camp
Upton. v
No. date has been set for the wed

Howard St., between 15th

And I believe that women are
natural-born champions. They fight
at their best when cornered,, but lag
when things are moving smoothly.
Well, we are cornered, friends! We
are facing grave problems. The war is
causing a shortage growing worse
every day of help. This means that
many women will have not only to do
their own housework, but that they
must do their bit for the Red Cross
and a dozen other organizations
mothered by war necessities. This
strenuous period will teach women
business methods; it will make them
clever and efficient buyers for is not
woman the big buyer of the country?
Is she not the buyer for the home?
Competition is keen. Retailers are
offering bargains. They are offering
as much as possible for the money to
those who know what their money
should buy.
Are women going shabby because
of the war?
America Now Produces
Its Own Enamel Wares
The United States for the first time
in its history is now producing all of
the enameled utensils used in Ameri
can households, and in addition is
,able to supply large quantities to Eu
rope and South and Central American
countries.
According to figures recently com-'
piled, honsewives ot the United States
are at present buying enameled uten
sils at about the rate of $30,000,000
yearly. In former years a consider
able portion of these goods were sup
plied by manufacturers of Sweden,
Germany and Austria. Since the be
ginning of the war there has been a
steady decline in these importation!
and at present they are practically nil.
Japan for a timesent in shipments
of the ware, but as the quality of the
Japanese goods was unsatisfactory,
the supply from this source has ended.
Thirty large American companies
are engaged in the production of
enameled ware and since the begin
ning of the war factory facilities have
bean greatly increased. These con
cerns are able not only to meet jdo
mestic needs, but also produce a sur
plus for export. This year the ship
ment to foreign countries will be not
less than $2,000,000 and there are in
dications of a further rapid expansion
if the war continues.
Vonsolidated Rural School
T.he days of the little red school
house are fast drawing to. a close,
says the Minenapolis Journal.
The one-room school is an expen
sive educational institution, as com
pared with the consolidated or co
cost of three schools in Minnesota,
the money expended in consolidated
rural schools brings so much more
for the outlay that no consolidated
district would for a moment contem
plate going back to the old small
unit system.
Eight-room school - buildings,
heated, lighted and ventilated in a
superior way; provided with janitor
service, gymnasiums, auditoriums,
equipped playgrounds, school gar
dens and comfortable 'buses for car
rying the children to and from school,
are the coming successor of the one
room rural school. Such schools
often prove .to, be superior in their
service to the corresponding city
schools, and the cost of their service
to the rural taxpayer has averaged
but a tr;fle more in Minnesota than
the old, inefficient, blundering service
given by the one-room school.
' i i i, i .. . i ' i m
Not so long as they can figure out
the cost of a gown from their allow
ances. Are they to wear ragged, runover
shoes? Never! Women must be
more attractive than ever, according
to the prophesy of a local philosopher
who says that the scarcity of men
will make women pay a great deal of
attention to their personal appear
ance. Woman may be smart; she may
have talent; she is fortuuate to have
natural judgment, but she must have
beauty.
Styles this season are sane. Modets
are built on comfortable lines. And
remember, when you go shopping
that skirts are a little longer -this
season, though not as long as some
of the advanced models shown last
season. The width of skirts is ma
terially decreased, this being neces
sary where tunic and rcdingote ef
fects are used, but even the straight
skirts with plaits effect the slim sil
houette. We are cornered now. We must
fight our best to look well and make
every dollar buy its most instead ot
its bit
We are all champions don't for
get it.

Harry Pollok Lucky Guy;

Harry Tollok, the Boston oil broker,
who for years looked after the busi

combination, reports business boom
ing in the oil returns of Kentucky,
and says men are becoming wealthy
between sunup and sunset every day.
The boom is the greatest in the his
tory of Kentucky.
Pollick is matchmaker of the Man
hattan arena, and also has Irish Patsy
Cline in his stable. "This boy Mars
must be a world's wonder," said Pol
lok. "New York sports are missing
something when the matchmakers
pass him up. I an going to give him
a chance against some good man."
Pollok stated that Freddie Welsh
retired from the game a wealthy
man, and is now making a comfort
able living conducting a health farm
at Summit, N. J., where he resides
with his wife and children.
What Kind of Pictures Do
You Hang on Your Wall?
The indiscriminate hanging of pic
tures which has been so long the
vogue is much to be deplored. A pic
ture that is intrinsically good, and
bears4 relationship to other things of
interest, can always be used, but there
are many pictures used to fill up
space, or because they have beautiful
frames, and not because the subject is
appropriate or the picture itself is
good. If one has no pictures to start
with, good photographs of old masters
or old colored prints are interesting.
The decorative quality of picture
is enhanced by the right background,
the height at which it is hung, and its
juxtaposition to other pictures. A
modern picture is usually out of place
on an antique background, and an
antique picture has not a good setting
in a strictly modern room. It is, in
deed, a special talent to know just
how much a decorative object really
decorates. To crowd the walls, even
with very beautiful things, is to fab
far short in artistic taste. Unless it
is an exhibit where all things of a cer
tain type or class are to be kept to
gether, proper space should be al
lowed for each object, so that it may
have its full decorative value.
The heightening or lowering of ceil
ings can be accomplished effectively
by the use of picture-molding. In a
low-ceilinged room the picture mold
ing should be placed within two inches
of the top; in a high-ceilinged room
18 inches to three feet is a good
height.

THE strength of the Pullman
Car represents one of the
best forms of insurance the
traveler can buy.
For seven years every car
built by the Pullman Company
for its service has been of steel.
During this period a large
proportion of the older, but
still modern cars, have also
been rebuilt o almost equal
strength.
This has been accomplished
by rebuilding with steel under
frames, steel vestibules and
steel sheathuig on the sides.
In addition to the factor of
safety, fifty years of, experience
in designing and building cars '
has brought about an almost
unheard of development in
travel convenience and luxury.
The modem Pullman is fully
equipped with the most up-to-date
steam heating, electric
lighting and plumbing.
It offers a degree of safety,
innumerable luxuries and a
personal service that have,
established a world-wide repu
tation. '
