Cameron Answers the Question "Why Am - ;;. I a Republican?" ' A Brjde of Past Week I a:n a republican, v First, Because I believe in party affilia tion, as a sacred and patriotic obli gation for every voter." Second, Because under our,form of gov ernment a nonpartisan virtually throws away the vote. ' Third, ' Because J do not believe in a sep arate woman's party. I believe that as men and women, we must work "together" in citizenship as individ- ual units. - ' ' ' Fourth, ' ' .. Because I believe the republican v party is arid always has been "the ' nartv . of the hour4-a party of , prophetie vision followed by con certed action. n Fifth, ' Because the republican tarty ' stands for these principles of gov ' ernment which are "ofMhe people, for the people, and by the people, forjiberty but not licensi, protec tion but not -paternalism, regulation but not control, for equal freedom and lustke for all, recognizing no creed, class, sex, race or-group, or any combination of groups. Sixth, Because the republican party be lieves the laborer worthy of his hire, not forgetting that he must " be worthy; and w,hile remembering the rights of the employee, forgets not those of the employer and the pub lic, as well. In the past, this party , has been, and I believe in the, fu , tur, will be a champion of the cause of IJhe downtrodden and the op pressed", seeking to accord all who are -worthy the opportunity for ad vancement, t , . V Seventh. ' Because the republican party stands for an . efficient, economical, ; just and practical administration of , tye government, with adequate but not execessive taxation-ever keep ing in mind the greatest good of the Nation. " - V , Eighth, .J . .f N Because to. me, the" republican party moans Americanization. I be lieve Kfr. A. B. Messer was right when he-said: "Every time 'we make a republican, we make an Ameri-, can." , , . ,, . --.- Ninth, Because I firmly believe, the re publican party stands ready to pro tect the rights of women and chil- ; dren, and the men of the party ton - work with the women in harmony and co-operation ,for the social bet terment of atl. I heard Mr. Will H. Hays make this, statement to a company of 1,500 people: "Women will bring -to poli tics that same stabilizing ballast tha women bring to the homes hi cur country." I- believe, Jjiat as women we must demonstrate the truth tf this statement, and that in the reorganization of the republican party there will be no distinction. be-v tween men and women as such, but "we shall work together as .fellow citizens of the- world' s mightiest re public. ' v- As we work in church, we will ' wuris in iiaie, siac Dy siae, as we build our homes, we will build the aation hand in hand together. f , Tenth, - -1 am a republican because I be lieve the party stands not for com munism, radicalism, nor, for hat which ' has been called "autocracy's twin brctherw bolshevistn, Aut re publicanfsm stands for that which is the very heart and soul of onr na tional life, that greatest principle of j 'u-n-ue Americanism. r ,t r Signed by Mrs. M.

Among the newest books 1 should like to read are: - 1 "Foch." By Raymond Recouly.

One ounce of common mercolized wax, to be had at drug and department stores generally, will remove the ' most unsightly com plexion in from one to two weeks. By its remarkable absorptive powrr, the coarsened, roughened or discolored layer of thin film-skin which hides rthe healthier skin underneath, is gradually flecked off in tiny, almost invisible par ticles. This js done so (refltly there is no inconvenience, and no trace is left on the skin except that of enhanced beauty. The wax is smeared on like cold cream before retiring, and removed in the morning with warm water. - ' 30 DISC0UNJ SALE m LIBRARY H I PEBIOD : TABU? .
