Negroes On Hand.

ctmmittee, appeals involving 101
seats were filed with the credentials

credentials committee, however,
agreed that the appeals from any
state might be filed later.
Delegates from the Fifth Mis
souri district, which was denied
representation by the national com
mittee for alleged fraud, filed an ap
peal. The Alabama contest in which a
negro challenged the seat of J. B.
Atkinson of Selina, a Lowden sup
porter, was dismissed alter a brief
statement by the negro. The com
mittee adopted a rule to limit hear
ings on delegates-at-large to 10 min
utes and districts to five, except in
unusual cases.
Filing of thi- Oregon contest was
questioned. Lafayette Gleason,
temporary convention secretary
holding New York's proxy, said no
contest had been filed, as required
under the national committee's
rules, with the national committee.
The credentials committee then
adopted a motion to refuse consid
eration of contests not complying
with the rules.
The Arkansas delegates-r.t-large,
headed by National Committeeman
Remmel, were" seated by the com
mittee, sustaining the action of the
national committee.
The entire Florida delegation on
the temporary roll was seated with
out a hearing, no contestants ap
pearing. Of the eight Florida dele
gates, six and pledged to Wood and
two unpledged, but repDrted to
favor Senator Johnson.
In the Arkansas contests
brought by negroes charging race
discrimination the committee
seated the "regulars."

By Examination Order
Springfield, III., June 8. (Special
Telegram.) Agnes Schenk. 16-year-old
Omaha, girl, almost became a
gob here. Disguised as a boy she
succeeded in passing inspection at
the local navy recruiting station un
til ordered to prepare for physical
examination.
A jaunty looking lad viuntered
into the recruiting station and stat
ed he wanted to enlist in the navy.
At first glance Chief Quartermas
ter R. T. Stirling took him for an
unusually good looking chap; then
a closer look at his face and a
glance at the slender hands put a
doubt in his mind. I
"Go into the next room and pre

officer commanded.
The boy went, but when the re
cruiting officer went to give the ex
amination Agnes was sitting in a
corner crying and no nearer ready
for the examination than she had
been when she entered the room.
She confessed she was a eirl, 16
years old, and that she had come
from Omaha, "bumming" h:r way
on a freight train. Upon being
questioned she stated she had
money. She left the office with
shattered hopes of becoming a

PHONE FOR AN APEX
DEMONSTRATION
Let us show you this simple, efficient machine which makes
washing an easy task. In choosing between work and play,
most people would rather play. That is why so many women would
"rather play with the Apex Electric Washer" and manage their washings
at a cost of less than 2 cents a week for electric current, than spend hours
at the hardest kind of work over a washboard. They enjoy freedom from
the uncertainty of "day help"--they revel in their independence-they
appreciate the better service maids give when provided with Apex laundry
appliances.
The Apex Electric Washer
Makes washing a simple task. There is no rubbing-no boiling necessary. Being the or
iginal oscillator, with its unique tub and its air pockets, itscreates both vacuum and pres
sure which forces water, steam and suds through the clothes, completely removing the
dirt from the fabrics in half the time usually required.

All metal, except the wringer; it lasts a life-time and in addition is more sanitary.
Wood rots and warps; corrugations collect germs. None of this is possible with
the Apex. It requires no more attention than would a granite dishpan in your kitchen.
Carload after carload of these Apex Washers have been sold by us because every sale
made makes a new booster who brings us customers. For 1920, we have ordered
over $600,000 worth of Apex Appliances, but we doubt if even this large contract
will meet the demand. ,
