WOMEN In the Ninety Women Students Will Lose Public Eye. Mme. van Karnebeek BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. The wife of the minister of forelgn affairs in‘the Netherlands made her first visit to this country whgn she accom- panied her husband te the arms confer- ence. E Mme. Karnebeek, say her {riends, greatly enjoyed her visit, for the RED CROSS CLASS MAY BE FORCED TO SUSPEND{ Instruction Unless Funds Are Provided @t Qnce. With the appropriation for the Red Cross class in the Amerlcanization school exhausted, immediate funds for its operation must be appropri- ated or it will be forced to close at the end of January, according to school authorities. This means that the school will be forced to abandon the-teaching of English, health rules and home sanitation to ninety women students. The school was started as an ex-! periment about five mionths ago and, has been so successful that it is to be made the subject-of a special re- port. Its work is threefold in char- acter—field work, the visiting in homes of foreigners, the reporting of reason that she found the Amer-|cages which should come to the im- ican capital restful, and this despite the whirl in which the delegates have moved since that eventful November 11, and which has left the Americin members a bit fagged. But the gayest republican’ capit has none ofthe rigid routine which holds at court, and for the wife of the chief minister of state the wocial season at The Hague has contarned few leisure moments. Mme. Karne- beek assumed arduous duties here, for her husband's post at home and his place in the delegation sént by Holland gave 'him many obliga- tions and of a varied kind. He was entertained by Briand and Mr. Balfour, both of whom hold equiva- lent rank in the arms conference, and MME. VAN KARNEBEEK. he. in turn, gave stately dinings and receptions and lesser ones for the minor officials under his care. Yet Madame enjoyed sightseeing almost every day and nothing gave her more pleasure than watching the shoppers just before the great feast of Christmas and admiring the many duplications of the patron saint of ¥olland, called St. Nicholas -over| there, and Santa Claus here. She even inspected the good things in the niarkets during the rush of Christmas eve, and that is a form of amusement which appeals only to the most con- scientious sightseer. Mme. Karnebeek, though never in this country before, has known mary Americans, for she was one of the foremost hostesses of the first Hague donvention. and with the American minister. Dr. David Jayne Hill, and Mrs. Hill she entertained all the del- egates and guests from this side. She knew the late Andrew. Carnegic well and it is her regret that he is not here to welcome this conference? which is planned so much after his policies. At Geneva, where the Kar- nebeeks were for many months dur- ing the sittings of the league of na- tions, she met other Americans, es- pecially those members of the Sen- ate and House who were making of- ficial tours of Europe. Mme. Karne- beek is striking in appearance, a little past middle life, grave in man- ner, yet with a pleasant smile and gracious bearing, .superbly gowned and presenting the exact idea which ‘Am!rlcans have of a high-born ccurt ndy I $ _former prices ‘POIS, e s gk sla calf. ||IIH|!M"IHIImHlNH umlq|mmmmmmmmu|mmnmmmmmmmnmmmmumnmmmnmmmmnnnmmammm« i E; .| wrote the President in his veto mes- Stetson Shoe Shop eduction Sale Worflz wlnle savings in footwear of the hlghest grades and of the newest and most desirable styles Women’s low shoes : reduced to Low shoes: for walking, dress and sports—the very newest' models—in- . cluding one, two and three strap slip- Leathers are. suede combinatigns, pa.tent calf, Nerweglan calf and Rus- $tetson Shoe Shop Saleas I3(l‘;'F Street b mediate attention of any supervision of the Visiting Nurses’ Assoclation and: authorities of the health depart- ment; teaching English to mothers in their homes, using as a basis of work s {health standards and home sanita- tion; regular classes in the school in “home hygiene” and care of the sick. Thirteen girl students whe have been in this country not more than five months have completed the course of study in ‘English, and have re- ceived certifieates from the national headquarters of the Red Cross. The teaching in the Red Cross class has been to stress the constructive things which prevent persons from becoming _ill. This is particularly | true of foreigners newly arrived in| this country, who are physically be- low par because of their terrible ex- verience during the war period. In these-cases the Red Cross class has been acting as a medium between the student and the health clinic. All this, however, must be abandoned if the class is closed. ——— PRESIDENT VETOES BILL FOR RELIEF ASSOCIATION | Amendment to Act Incorporating Masonic Mutual Fails to Gain Approval. Describing it as unjust and dis- | criminating, President Harding has ve- toed the bill amending an ‘act passed more than fifty years ago to incorporate the Masonic Mutual Relief Association of the District of Columbia. The President's siessage vetoing the legislation follows: . “If the act were to promote the fraternal service, -as it purports,” sagé, “it would be discriminatory and unfair to the Masonic order, which is an established _institution dating from the beginning of our national Llife, which permits no service in its name for profit.” “It is not conceivable that an or- ganization is purely fraternal and benevolent which provides for a re- serve fund required by law in the regulation of ordinary life insurance companiés, though the act stipulates a classification, which exempts the association from federal taxation. If it is desirable to have such a pro- vision for fraternal insurance and the operation of benevolent institutions, there should be provision for com- pliance with the regulations of the suverlnlend#n! of insurance and the limitation to any specific fraternity ought to be removed. “Moreover, just consideration of our fraternal activities might well re- quire the sanction of any fraternal order whose name is employed.” ASKS LIMITED DIVORCE." | Mrs. Lorena B. Cunningham has filed suit in thé District Supreme Court for a limited divorce from John E. Cunning- ham. They were married February 10, 1915, and have two children. . She charges cruelty and excessive use of in- toxicants, and asks the court for an in- Junction to prevent her husband from molesting her and the children. \ He has an income of $30,000 a year, the wife tells the court. She is repre- sented by Attorney Henry E. Davis. WILL TO BE PROBATED. The will of Mrs. Bettie K. Hughes, dated December 6, 1919, has been filed for probatc. She leaves to her son, Harry G. Hughes, real estate in Vir- ginia known as the John Truslow farm, 1 charged with the payment within five years of $1,000 each to her son, Rupert | S. Hughes, and daughter, Lillie K Hughes. The remalining estate is to be | distributed equally among her children. Harry G. Hughes is named as executor. lllllllmlIlllllllllllmlllllllll} 75 Y 22, ‘1092 PART o hefleohi‘ Co. 7th at F " New phone Main 5100 Zthat F - A i It has been many a day since women could dress attractively for so little.
