Nov. 25.—"High heels are unnecessary, ridiculous and dangerous," exclaimed Justice and Alderman John F. Donohue of this city, when Mrs. William Watson, a former resident of this place, came ail the way from New Jersey to prosecute her husband for abusing her. The husband was more than' meek in the presence of the austere magistrate, noted for handling wife beaters. "I have to beat my better half," he .said, "to keep her from running to stories to buy everything new that A TEA SET Something New and Neat — Something you should have in your home — Something to use every day and on holidays— Within the Reach of All — Prices From $6.00 Up — Plain or Fancy Patterns — See them in our window FRANK KELLY THE JEWELER WONDERFUL APPETITE OF MODERN WOMEN NEW YORK, Nov. 25.—At the meet ing of the State Federation of Wom en's Clubs in New York some views were discussed that will prove divert ing to clubwomen everywhere and to others. Mrs. E. B. Kidder proved the star talker and "kidder." Mrs. Win ifred Harper Cooley was another stel lar attraction. 'New York city," said Mrs. Cooley, "is the most vicious and immoral in tills country, because its people live in restaurants and delicatessens. Health, whether private or public, de pends on food. Morality depends on food. When we are hungry and ill nourished we see things and are not responsible, mentally or morally. Hamlet undoubtedly needed a square meal. The gaunt, starving man .will steal without compunction, and some times commit murder. Many a drunk ard is made so by sour bread." Having completed the indictment, Mrs. Cooley cheerfully proceeded to lay the onus on her sex as guardians of morals indifferent to food adulter ation. She proceeded: "The quantity of food each indiv idual eats is surprising. We literally shovel tons of material into our deli cate stomachs. In a lifetime of 70 years a woman eats 30 oxen, 100 cows, 200 sheep, 50 pigs, 30,000 oysters, 21. 000 eggs, 414 tons of bread, etc. "The quality, therefore, ought to be looked into. Yet we tranquilly de vour food colored with coal tar dyes and preserved with chemicals and poisons. We buy and vie eat these daily." Just for Lunch Appetizers. Mrs. Cooley then told them how frequently made from catsup floor sweepings and other appetizing ingredients and ran through the list was of liquid eggs and bacteria haunted and dancing, which followed the box supper at the end of the program.

Roy Wright, Forreset Taylor. Vesta Cornwall Tile Society comes out. Her latest craze is high heels." "The French high heel is an out rage; nothing short of barbarous," declared the alderman. Donohue has decided other important questions of women's attire. He has given his opinion on "rats," "hobble skirts'' and "facial adornments." The case was dismissed. WASHINGTON, Nov. 25.—Viscount Chinda, now representing Japan at the court in Berlin, has been appointed Japanese ambassador to the United States, according -to a state depart ment bulletin just issued. milk and poisoned candy till organ ized womanhood qualied.

Mrs. Kidder was contrasting "Ev eryman" and "Everywoman" .in Mrs. Ruth Litt's hour on drama, when she called attention to the many plays which personified the Deity on the stage. "The Third Floor Back" she styled "The Ecclesiastical Jollier and His Emotional Ten Pins." She was so rapturously recalled at the close of her address that she broke the rule against encores. "I am so delighted to see the men here," she said, looking out over the big audience. "We women admire the men." iraynr." I All of them iaughted and applauded. "Oh, yes we do. Just as mach as the men admire themselves"—here the shouts grew louder—"and human admiration," concluded Mrs. Kidder demurely, "can go no farther." Happy Mr. Kidder. An aside which did not appear in any announcement of Mrs. Kidder's work for the "Fed" was whispered yesterday in the corridor, that her constant attendance at the convention would make her husband neglect his lonely luncheon (in apartment hotel), Mrs. Kidder arouse on Sunday morning early and baked chicken and pies enough to feed sev eral adults for a week.

"Do you see the delegate over there in the purple scarf?" one wom an asked an usher. "Well, she's chewing gum and I want you to speak to her. There's no dignity to it." "Madam," responded the usher, "I have ordered these women to take off their hats and most of them have been pretty civil about it. I have ordered them to stop talking and one of them nearly shook the life out of me. But, ask a New York woman to stop chewing gum! Not on your— I mean my courage has its limits." SAYS WOMEN MUST HUSTLE That the woman who stays at home by her own fireside in this day and age is unmoral, was the startling statement made by Professor Charles Zuebiin a few days ago, an account of which appears in the Philadelphia Tribune. "So long as immorality flaunts it self on every side, vice and -disease hold their grip on the social fabric and corruption is rampant in our city halls and legislative chambers, a wom an cannot remain true to her moth erhood and stay secluded in the home." This was the substance of a start ling address made by Professor Charles Zuebiin, formerly professor of sociology at the University of Chicago, before the University Extension socie ty in Witherspoon hall a few days ago, and several hundred women ap plauded vigorously, others, however, showed their disap proval by keeping silent. Further on he said: Women Must Get Out and Hustle. "No woman in America can stay at home and be a good mother. The days when women could sit by the heartstone and leave the direction of political and social progress to men have passed. The quicker women real A number of ize this the better for themselves, their families and the country. "The 'old-fashioned' woman is not only out of place in the world today, but is immoral. It is argued that a mother belongs to her children, and her place is by their side in the home. She does belong to the children. But how is she to safeguard their water, milk and food supply if she never leaves the fireside? "Not even the most rabid anti-suf fragist dares to say that women lack sufficient intelligence to vote. Nearly all our civic leagues are manned by women. They are doing the work left undone by men. They are devoting more time and thought to- civic and social problems than men. In fact, the political platforms drawn up by the National Federation of Women's clubs are 20 years ahead of anything ever proposed by the great parties." High School Work a Farce. In speaking of the school systems of the country he said: "The work performed by our high schools is farcical. Students are turned out of them with only ru diments of culture and totally unfit for any useful work. Unless our school soon begin to give up students trained to use their hands, eyes and mind in inventive or creative work, and with a sound, rounded and com plete culture, America will never be able to complete successfully with Ger many for the trade of the world.
