S. With Her Son. KANSAS CITY. Mo., September 18.— Miss Jordan, an English girl, was married here Saturday night to Claude Heatherington Clarke, also of Bngland, it became known today. Miss Jordan met Clarke last Novem- ber on a liner while on her way to America with her young son to ac- cept an invitation of Mrs. Frank ‘Warren of Kansas City to make her home with her. The invitation was an outgrowth of an acquaintanceship between the girl and Mr. Warren, whom she met while he ' was sérving. in _the United States Army, overseas. Mrs. Warren divorced her husband, who is a lawver here, soon after he was discharged from.he Army. The name of Miss Jordan was not mentioned in the divorce proceedings. After coming to America, Mr. Clarke lost track of the young English woms an. Last week while in a restau- rant in Chicago, he read in a news- paper that Miss Jordan was preparing to return to England. He immediate- 1y located the girl by long-distance telephone and left Chicago. Clarke is a son of William Hay- wood Clarke, shirt manufacturer of Sparkhill, Birmingham, England, He came to America to be associated with his brother in business.

Cal tairly listéned his way into all the offices that Northampton could give aim. Cal has always been known as a “door-to-dodr” candidate. Where an- other man would have spent his time lning up his friends Cal listened to, his enemies. He would walk day after day out into the country districts or down into the poor section to the homes of the §ood ‘democratic voters. The overworked housewives, —with| their meh away at work, would have no one to talk to. Cal would drop in for half an hour, sit by the chimney corner, swing his leg, say nothing and listen his way into the women's hearts.
