Strong Move For Pershing
Found Among, Delegates to
Women's Voters' League
. - I. n i i
And Now Turning Their Attention to Politics, With
Strong' Efforts to Line Up 20,000,000 Votes Rep
resentedSay Democrats Behind Objections Made
to Military Men Because They Have None.
By MYRTLE MASON.
Staff Correspondent of The Bee.
Chicago, Feb. 17. -Political depths
were sounded Tuesday at the Chi
cago convention of the League of
Women Voters. Mary Garrett Hay
for republican women, - and Mrs.
George Bass' for the democrats be
gan the battle for the 20,000,000
votes of the league. .
Women are talking politics, and
doubtless wjll register in large num
bers with political parties. At pres
ent their chief jinterest seems to be
in issues and ' platforms, and the
intelligent women vote will prob
ably go to the party which stands
most heartily for the high principles
embodied in the League of Women
Voters program.
Feeling for Pershing.
A strong admiration exists among
women conventionalists from vari
ous sections of the country for Gen
eral Pershing. Mrs. George Still of
Kirksville, Mo., his native state,
says, ,"Of course Missouri would
support Pershing."
Mrs. Charles Goodman, who came
all the way from Georgia to at
tend the convention, says of the
man who led American forces
through a great crisis: "I admire his
character."
Mrs. Louis F. Middletnook of
Hartford. Conn., made the state
ment that "everyone says there will
he nothing to it, if Pershing runs.
Democrats and republicans, alike.
would support him, in her opinion.

Symphony Players
Pack Clothes With
Their Instruments
. Those who have heardthe Minne
apolis Symphony orchestra with the
entire personnel ot S3 men, and as
equipped for its spring tour, of only
60 men, say that one would hardly
recognize it as the same orchestra.
The 60 musicians are representative
musicians, and all of the parts are
represented in the smaller orchestra,
but the complete ensemble, which
will be heard in Omaha for the first
time, gives a volume of tone and a
sweep to the climaxes, which can
only be achieved in a large orches
tra. It was the orchestra of 85 musi
cians which went to New York and
Boston, and won for the Minneapo
lis symphony a standing as one of
the great orchestras of the country.
Mr. Oberhoffer is a conductor of ex
ceptional attainments, and the vital
ity, buoyancy and originality of
style, which has always marked his
work in Omaha, will be displayed in
its greatest freedom with the com
plete ensemble.
The orchestra, which travels in
three special Pullmans and a bag
gage car, will arrive from the west
today;. Most of the trunks which
carry the instruments, which are all
shapes and sizes, are so arranged as
to also carry the clothes of the play
ers, thus saving space.

Asked about sentiment against
military men as candidates for nomi
nation to the presidency, Capt. Vic
tor Heintz, regional director of the
republican national committee, with
headquarters in Chicago, declared
that the talk against military men
comes from the democrats, who do
not expect to have such a candidate,
while the republicans have two with
their other good possibilities for the
nomination.
Nebraska Donort Generous.
In less than 30 minutes Tuesday
pftcrnoon the League of Women
Voters, with Mary Garrett Hay in
the chair, raised $50,000 to carry on
their work.
Nebraska contributed generously,
giving $500 as a state organization,
with personal donations" of $100 each

Rialto "Behind the Door," star
ring Hobart Bosworth at the Rialto
theater this week, is receiving most
fayorable comment from movie fans
who have enjoyed the privilege of
seeing this picture on the screen.
This dramatic picture tale concerns
fights on sinking submarines, leaps
from battleships, exciting mob en

that keep the audiece in a state of
excitement from the beginning of
the first reel until the finish of the
last.
"Flo-Flo," John Cort's .charming
musical comedy, which will be the
attraction at the Brnadeis, starting
next Friday night, for a limited en
gagement of four performances, is
full of pep and go. It ran through
out one entire season at the Cort
Theatre in New York. You are to
see the production exactly as it was
presented in New York and Chicago
and you may be sure that John Cort
has supplied a company of the high
est merit.
Years ago the scenery used in
burlesque was painted by "Dobs &
Dobs," house painters. But today
the better class of burlesque attrac
tions have as expensive an artistic
production as the big musical
shows. As an example Arthur Pear
son's "Step Lively Girls" at the
Gayety Theater this week is a cri
terion. Carmine Vitolo, the artist,
painted this season's "Step Lively"
scenery and it is along original, un
conventional lines for which Vitolo
is famous. So things do progress,
even in burlesque. Ladies' mttinee

My HEART and
My HUSBAND
Adele Garrison's New Phase- of
Revelations
of a Wife
How Katie "Saved the Day" for
Madge.
Curiously enough, my first emo
tion at seeing my baby boy turn
unrecognizingly from me' and hide
his face against his grandmother's
protecting skirts was not a grieving
disappointment, but furious resent
ment against my mother-in-law.
I acquitted her fully of' any at
tempt to wean the baby away from
me, but I was sure that'she was ac
tually gloating over' the fact that
the child whom she so idolized had
preferred her to me. 'When I am
older I shall no doubt have com
mon sense enough to accept and to
smile at this grandmotherly trait of
.jealousy universal, I believe, at any
rate most young; mothers and fa
thers will bear me out in this, I
think but for the moment I could
have choked, so overweening was the
rage that consumed me the rage
which I knew I must stifle, of which
I must let no hint reach the people
around me.
"I told you sol" Dicky's voice,
laughing, with maddening incom
prehension of my state of mind,
sounded in my ears. "You will go
away for a month, will you? Here,
Pete I Come to your dad. That's the
boy!"
He snapped his fingers at the
baby who lifted his head and
gurgled delightedly. Both the ges
ture and the nickname, "Pete," are
tilings I cordially detest, but I have
always swallowed my displeasure,
knowing that voicing it would only
irritate Dicky, and do no possible
good.
A Sudden Outburst.
"Richard 1" His mother's voice
dripped disapproval. "I shall not
permit Richard Second to come to
you when you call him by so dis
reputable a name. 'Pete,' indeed!
My grandchilul No, no, precious,"
this to the baby, who had put out
his hands to 1 Dicky. "Mustn't go.
Stay with granzic."
My small son has developed a will
of his own, however. Whether his
outburst was fright at the con
fusion, temper at being thwarted, or
a combination of the two I do not
know, but at any rate he suddenly
sat down hard on the floor, screwed
up his face, and sent forth a howl
that left us in no doubt as to his
displeasure. And when his grand
mother stooped to raise him he
struck at her with his baby hands.
Upon any other occasion I should
have "spatted" the hands lightly, as
a beginning of baby discipline, but I
am afraid that I wickedly rejoiced
at the little exhibition of temper.
Well, JJick, his brother-in-law
drawled,' "I don't think you'll need
to send that lad south for his lungs
this winter at any rate."
Dicky was eying his offspring de
lightedly. Junior's outbursts of
temper always amuse him.
"Mother, why don't you box with
him?" he asked. "It would be
awfully good practice for the kid.
I think he s going to be a feather
weight champion, myself."
Mother Graham raised her head
with the light of battle in her eyes.
Inordinately proud of her grandson
and his attachmentf or her. I knew
that she was both humiliated and ex
asperated by the baby's exhibition of
temper toward herself. Her eyes
fell upon Katie, over whose features
had spread a delighted grin, and she
was at once provided with a scape
goat. Katie! I nervously started at the
snap in her voice. "Come and take
this child instead of standing there
grinning like an ape. There's prob
ably a pin sticking in him. I told
you to be careful when you dressed
him.
Knowing Katie's temper. I fairly
held my breath a I waited to see
what she would do. But to my
amazement she evinced no sign of
displeasure unless her quickly height
ened color could be constructed as
such. And I could have sworn that
there was a distinctly triumphant
Hash in her eyes as she lmrried for
ward and picked up the screaming
baby.
Dot lettle babee. he want - his
mudder, dot's all matter by heem.'
she observed with a superb air of
disdain. "Come babee," she crooned
at Junior, whose sobs subsided in
stantly. "Vot I tell you to say veil
a mam-ma come home? Here mam
ma now! Say it, babee, dear."
Her voice would have coaxed the
wildest bird from its bush. As she
spoke she turned Junior gently
around so that he was facing me. i
saw through her little plot in an in
stant and blessed her for her
thoughtfulness. She must have
been daily reminding the child of
me, coaching him in some little
speech.
Kat Mv mother-in-law cot ou
the firs syllable of the girl's name,
but I saw her daughter make a quick,
hushing gesture, which for a won
der she respected. As for the rest
of the little group, they were all
watching the child with the respect
ful admiration generally used by
relatives toward a 'first baby.
And then, forging another link in
the chain of affection that bound me
to my faithful little maid, my baby
laughed engagingly at me and. lisped
the little speech she had taught him:
"Hel-lo, mam-ma. Home!"
The next instant with my face in
his curls, my foolish heartache and
my resentment had fled together.
