One per- ‘son cannot accomplish much, but one jor two hundred millions of women can \work jyonders. ‘Let us go back to a :more "Spartan-like simplicity of living ‘and let us build up social service until levery. city in China Is sanitary, every section of the town has its proper .schools, and every child, whether boy or girl, is sent to such schools. True ‘social service brings democracy in its itrain, and we who are citizens of a inew republic can help to make it truly great by preaching and living democ- jracy all the time. Why not learn to <:!do our household dutles, deeming ft ieffeminate to be waited upon by maids and slave girls all the time? ‘‘“The status of women in China, ‘while leaving much to be desired, still lis quite hopeful when we consider ‘that she is just emerging into the sis- ‘terhood of the nations. Our men can depend upon us to bear the burdens of ithe day, for nowhere is there a more dndustrious, diligent and persevering ‘womanhood than in Chiba.” Dr. Kahn is lecturing in this coun- try on the needs of her fellow country women, In the interests of the Y. W. iC. A. Educational Campaign which ‘plans to acquaint people with all phases of Y. W. C. A. work in the ‘United States, South America, China, Japan, India and Europe. This educa- tional "campaign will be followed by .an active effort to raise the $3,000,000 needed for service for women through- out the world. Tt CHINESE WOMEN HAVE FINANCIAL ABILITY. They Carried, Y. W. C. A. Campaign ‘ “QOver the Top.” Mgych has been said about the homn- iesty and skill of the Chinese business man. The world has neglected to men- itlon the financial ability of Chinese women. They proved this ability in - ithe last financial campaign of the Y. |W. C. A. in Tientsin, Ordinarily three weeks are allowed -“itn which to raise the budget by sub- igcription after the finance committee |has decided upon the sum hecessary jto carry on the work of the coming year. The Tientsin campaign was car- ried on entirely by Chinese women and broke all records by going over the top in ten days with a large surplus rer the budget. Subscribe for The Pioneer. X. W. C.

IDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 26, 1919 RECALLS DAYS OF ROMANCE Interesting Story of Titled Scotswom- an’s Connection With' Unfortunate Royal House of Stuart. « To those who protected with their lives the cause of the Stuarts em- bedied in the romantic episode of Charles Edward the Pretender, whose “cause” collapsed after.the battle of Culloden, 1746, the name of Lady Glerk was of reverent inter- est. Mary Dacre was born at the time the Pretender’s forces thun- dered at Carlisle. Highland chiefs besieged the house, but the officer in charge saved®the baby by pinning his own white cockade upon the in- fant. Mary Dacre kept it to her dying day. When George IV,.in 1822, came to Scotland, Lady Clerk charged Sir Walter Scott with the agreeable duty of presenting to the king a present that had come down to her through the Primrose family, with whom - famous Flora MacDonald took refuge in London. This pres- |ent was. the case of black shagreen containing the knife, fork and spoon used by “Prince Charlie” through his bitter wanderings in Scotland. Engraved upon the silver were the thistle of Scotland and the initials “C. 3.” (Charles Stuart). The case is now preserved at Grimestone park, Yorkshire.—Detroit News. DIVIDING SHEEP AND GOATS ‘Awful. Possibility of the Future Put Forward to Stimulate Present * Crop of “Hons.” Ex- is the cross a has-been, wheth- ler congressman or constable, must bear through all his years thereafter. True to his trust or false, it matters not to the inexorable ex-. It is a mark of differentiation only between the past and the present. Some pebple, when they become ex-, also acquire the title of Hon., presumably for the lack of some- thing better to call themselves. Most of them deserve this sort of honor- able mention, but a few do not. To these latter we really should, in all justice to the truly Hons., award a dis-Hon., but for some reason or other it isn’t done. The day is fast coming, however, when in public print, as well as in private thought, we shall separate our ex-es into Hons. and dis-Hons., and ex-officio titles will then depend primarily upon past performances. Think upon that, ye mighty, and re- | form.—Otis C. Little, in New York Evening Post. PRESIDENTIAL PUNSTER. President Wilson, besides his lik- !ing for limericks, has a great liking for puns. He often quotes among his intimates the punning line of the pirate chief in the old burlesque of “Conrad and Medora”— “Whate’er I sees upon the seas I seize upon.” The president is an adept puns ster himself. Even in his boyhood his puns were notable. Thus, at school, explaining his distaste for football, he said one day that he didn’t care for the game because, when he played it, it was a case of being “more shinned against than shinning.” - . SHE LANDED. “Here are some more coupons I've saved for you,” said the bashful call- er. “But what are you trying to get?” ; “A husband.” Then he spoke up.—Louisville Courier-Journal. FARM NOTE. “Pretty girls attract other board- ers.” “And pay board themselves. Yes, they’re a great help.”—Louisville Courier-Journal. EXPRESSING THE JUICES. Uncle Bill Bottletop. says the most impractical man he has met recently is one who bought up all the mince pies he could find and ran them through a clothes wringer. SHOP TALK. Grocer—I never like the under- taker to ask me how’s my health. Butcher—Why not? Grocer—It sounds too' much like shop talk. COMPARATIVE ACQUISITIONS. : “We haven’t a nice prince of Wales like the English have.” “No, but we have more than one king of sharks.” ive Page THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER SID TS D. A. R. Exchange. Stars and Stripes With Congress "N THE house the other day Representfitlve Mondell of Wyoming, the majority leader, called attention to a beautiful new flag suspendgd back of the speaker's desk. He read a letter from Mrs, George Thacher” Guernsey, president general of the D. A. R., pre- senting the flag as a substitute for the one presented in 1901 by one of the W chapters of the society. He offered a resolution accepting the flag, which was unanimously passed by a rising yote. . He then offered the following preamble and resolution and asked unanimous consent for its immediate \consideration : ) “Whereas the flag which was dis~ played in the hall of the house of rep- resentatives from the year 1901 until ] displaced by the flag presented to the house by the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, and this day accepted by the house, a period of time covering the first 19 years of the twentieth century, during which the house of representatives participated in the events preliminary to and in the enactment of legislation for the prosecution of the war with the imperial German government and with the royal Austro-Hungarian goverhment, and during which time also many other historic and important acts originated, were perfected, or consummated erein ; therefore, be it «Resolved, That because of ¥the association of said flag with the legisla- tive history of the United States during the period aforesaid, and in token of the house’s appx'eclatlon of the patriotism of the members of said soclety and of the women of the United States, the ‘clerk of the house of representatives is hereby authorized and directed to dellver said flag to the board of manage- ment of the National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution, to be displayed and carefully preserved in'the archives of said society, together with a copy of this preamble and resolution.” !
