6 EUROPEAN WOMEN TOUR AMERICA To Lecture on Economic Con ditions in Own Coun tries. BT CONSTANCE DREXFX. WASHINGTON. April 12. Through the efforts of Jane Addams and other members of the American section of the Woman's International League an inter esting group of women will tour America to tell of the economic conditions in their countries which have resulted from the war. The three women are Mrs. Au not Robinson of Manchester. England; Mile. Therese Pottecher of* France and Fraulein Gertrum Baer of Germany. Meetings have already been arranged in New York, Boston, Philadelphia. Pitts burgh, Cincinnati, Detroit, Chicago, Mil waukee and St. Paul. Mrs. Robinson, who has been promi nently 1-" tiffed with the labor party in England, cime to this country a year ago to testi'y before the American com mission on conditions in Ireland. Mile. Pottecher is a teacher and lec turer, a graduate of the University of Paris, but her chief interest has. oeen in the drama. Recently she has been asso ciated with the People's Theater in France, organized, by her cousin, Maurice Pottecher, and Jacques Capcau. Gertrude Baer is secretary of the youth movement in Germany which has attract ed considerable interest of late. Its aim is to simpufy modem life so as to re turn to fundamental things. These three women will arrive In this country in time for the annual conven tion of the American section of the Wom an's International League, which will be hold in Washington April 2S to 30. The executive committee which is ar ranging for the tour of the European wo men has a nation-wide membership, in cluding: From New York, Mrs. Charles Tiffany. Mrs. Henry G. Leach, Mrs. John Jay White, Miss Katherine D. Blake. From Massachusetts —Dr. Alice Hamilton, Mrs. Lucie Ainas Mead. From Pennsyl vania—Mrs. Biddle Lewis. Miss Fanny T. Cochran, Mrs. Walter Cope, Miss Ellen Winsor. From Illinois —Mrs. Lola Maver iek Lloyd. From California—Mrs. Wil lie.u Kent. Mrs. O. E. Cumbetson. From Missouri—Mrs. Frederick Taussig. From Montana—Miss Jeanette Rankin. From Nevada—Miss Anne Martin. From Wash ington. D. C. —Mrs. Rob< rt La Follette, Mrs. Harriet Connor Brown and Mrs.. George T. Odell, chairman. That the majority of women have the same ideas of what a Government should or should not do is the striking thought on reading a notice sent for these dis patches from London. American woijjei; who read the daily press may have no ticed that a committee headed by Sir Eric Geddes recently advocated many economies among them in education and in military expenditures. It is not difficult to assert which the women welcomed and which they pro tested. At the annual cofancll meeting of the National Union of Society for equal citizenship, the women passed reso lutions welcoming the recommendations “dealing with the reduction in the ex penditure on the fighting services." but \ass-rting lh;U "a high* r rather than a l*v. r standard of education is desirable, and'that monetary saving should be effected by improved administration rather than by depriving the people of the already too limited facilities for edu cation." The women further opposed the recom mendation of the Geddes' committee to disband the metropolitan police women patrols, but demanded that they be re tained and be given the power of ar rest.—Copyright, 1922, by Public Ledger Company.

BARBARISM VERSUS DAINTINESS & •j. \ j y m 1 H A I ]i There are two strong tendencies, seem ingly opposed to each other, which have manifested themselves this spring : n un derwear fashions, which the discriminat ing woman now students with the same care which she devotes to her outer gar ments. The first is toward more tailored un dergarments. and the other is toward bizarre effects. Satin striped rndiiim silks are in the lead as the popular fabric for strictly tailored undies. Corduroy crepe is also extensively used. Many gorgeous and barbaric effects are gained by the use of colors that once would have seetnd out of the question for underwear.

"Whose life was Nona living? He had asked her, “Tell me about you and Tybar.’' "Marko.

I think there’s never been any one so utterly captivating as Tony Is to look at and to hear.” Most engagingly, with such words, she had presented him; one that passed through life airily, exquisitely; much j fairy-gifted at his cradle with gifts of beauty, charm, pre-eminence in all he j touched; knowing no care, knowing no j difficulty knowing no obstacle, or dan- 1 ger, or fear, or Illness, or fatigue, or any thing In life, but gay and singing things, which touching, he made more bright, more tuneful yet; meeting no one, of whatever age or degree, but his charm was to that age or degree exactly touched: captivating all, 'leading alt. by all desired in leadership.

He'd utterly love to know he had stung me so much. And he'd utterly love to know he'd driven me to tell you. Fle'd think —he'd love like anything to drivo me to do awful things. He’s tried—especially these two years. He'd love to be able to point a finger at me and laugh and say. 'Ah! Ha-ha! Ah!' Y'ou know, he hasn't got any feelings at all—love or hate or any thing else; and it simply amuses him beyond anything to arouse feeling in anybody else.

It doesn't matter tuppence to life. The year 1913 was magnificent. It wa- a deliciously thrilling and emotional year. A terrific and stupendous year. Many well known people died. It was naturally a year of strong par tisanship. A year of violent feelings vio b-ntly expressed: and amidst them, and because of them, found with new certainty that he had no violent feelings. It much affected his relations with these nearest to him—with Mabel, with Mr. Fortune, and with Twyning. In th-se months, and in the months follow ing. the year changing and advancing in equal excitements and strong opinions through winter Into spring, he found him seif increasingly out of favor at The Prccii.cts and Increasingly es l ranged in his home. Like two living in two empty houses; empty this end ; empty that end. More frequently, for these estrangements, ap pealed to him the places of his refuge; the room of his mind, that private cham ber wherein, retired, he assembled tlie parts of his puzzles; that familiar gar ment in which. Invested, he sat among the fraternityof his thoughts; the eve nings with Young Perch and old Mrs. Perch ; the evenings with Mr. Fargus. Most strongly of all called another refuge; and this, because It called so strongly, he kept locked, Nona. 1J He said ene -’ay, ‘G’on see, there’s this, Nona. Life's got one. We’re in the thing. Ail the time you've got to go on. Y’ou can’t go back one single second. What you’ve done, you've done.

Once we took a step toward wrong, there It is forever, and aif its horrible till igs with it deceit, conceal ment, falsehood, subterfuge, pretense: vile and beastly things like that. I couldn't endure th-m; and I much loss could endure thinking 1 had caused you to suffer them.

I couldn't—" The austere asylyim of their pains. He looked back upon it as he had unfolded if. He looked forward across it as, most stem and bleak, it awaited them. He cried with a sudden loudness, as tnough he protested, not before her, hut before arbitrament in the high court of destiny. "But I can not help you upward; I can only lead you downward." She said, "Upward. Marko. Y'ou help me upward.” “I think we decided to call him Harold; eh, Twyning?'’ INDIANA DAILY TIMES. DID YOU KNOW— Y'ou shot. 1 avoid striking your fork or knife r gainst your teeth. You should not hold a forkful or spoonful of food In midair while con versing. Y'ou should not use your fingers to push food on your fork or spoon. Her gentle acquiescence! There swept upon him. as one reck less In sudden surge of Intoxication, most passionate desire to take her in his arms; and on her lips to crush to fragments the barriers of conduct, he had in damnable sophistries erected; and In her ears to breathe, “Y'ou are beloved to me! Honor, honestry, virtue, rectitude —words, darling, words, words, words! Beloved, let the foundations of the world go spinning, so we have love." He called most terribly upon himself, and his self answered him; but shaken by that most fierce onset he said thickly, “I’ll have this. If ever it grows too hard for you, tell me— tell me.” And suddenly. In one week, life from Its armory discharged two events upon him. In the next week one upon the world. CHAPTER 11. i On Sabre's desk, as he glanced to wards It, was a letter from Nona. He turned it over in his bands—the small neat script. She never before bad written to him at the office. It bore the London postmark. She would be writing from their town house. It would be to say she was coming back . . . But she never wrote on the occasions of her return; they just met . . . And she had never before written to the office. Mr. Fortune came into the room. VTith him was a young man, a youth, whose face was vaguely familiar to Sabre; Twyning behind. “Ah, Sabre," said Mr. Fortune. “I am bringing in to you anew member of our staff.” fie Indicated the young man be side him. “Anew member, but bearing an old name. A chip of the old block —the old Twyning block." He smiled, stroking his whale like front rathor as though this pleasantly had proceeded from Its depths and he was con gratulating It. The young man smiled. Twyning, edging forward from the back ground, also smiled. All the smiles were rather nervous. Sabre's immediate thought had been that it was an odd thing to have taken on young Twyning without mentiot ing It even casually to him. It was significant of his estrange ment In the office. Mr. Fortune ceased to stroke the whale like front. "In point of fact, Sabre, this very natural and pleasing desire of Twyning to have his son in the office, a desire which 1 am most gratified to sup port, is his first—what shall I say?— feeling of his feet in hts new re sponsibility. What was I saying? Ah. yes, Twyning Is now In partnership, Sabre. YYs. Good." lie paused before young Twyning. “Well, young man, now your bow be fore our literary adviser. I think we decided to cal! him Harold, eh, Twyning? Avoid confusion, don't jou agree. Sabre?" "If that's his name," Sabre said. Mr. Fortune glanced sharply at him and compressed his lips. “It Is," he said shortly. He left the room. (Continued in Our Next Issue.) Clubs and Meetings The Fidelity Review, 1140 W. B.

April 12.—"One of the things 1 would like to talk to Americans about when 1 visit my home land is TOLER ANCE. Spell it with capltnls.” It was Lady Astor, M. F., formerly Miss Naucy Langhborne of Albemarle, Ya., speaking. She is leaving with her husband, Viscount Asior, and Hon. Mrs. Alfred Lyttletou on April 12 for the United States. She Is going primarily on the invita tion of the League of Women Voters, who will have their national convention In Baltimore. She expects to address them and possibly the English-Speaking Union in New York. She also may go to Philadelphia and Chicago. She ex pects to lie buck in her seat in Parlia ment in mid-May. “From what 1 read, from what I hear," said Lady Astor, "I get the impression that in America there has been a reaction since the war. There is some intolerance of the views, beliefs, political opinions of one’s neighbors. There is a desire to standardize the minds, the morals, the thoughts of people. SHE DEFINES TOLERANCE. “Tolerance, according to my views, is a happy mingling of mercy with justice. Moses brought the laws of. justice to mankind. Jesus taught the holiness of mercy. “In America there is abuivdfyice of mercy. But is there always justice? “I get the idea that over iu England there is perhaps more tolerance. “Primarily what I am going home for is that I want so intensely to come Into con tact with American women. I feel with every liber of iny being that in ull es sentials. the women of America and the women of England want the same things —Justice for the weak, protection of the women workers, safeguarding of the chil dren, mere and more education, equal ity before the law In every particular. “We not only speak the same lan guage, read the same Bible,‘enjoy the same-kind of books and pastimes, but we think very much the same klrfd of thoughts. “American women and English worn Astor, M.
