IONLY ONE SHAMROCK BUILDING. Lipton's Other Boat Is Destined for Panama Exposition. London, April 22.—Sir Thomas Lip- ton has denied the' report in circula- { tion recently that he was building two challengers for the America’s Cup and that this was the reason for the secrecy maintained at Gosport, where | the challenger is being built. Sir Thomas =aid he was building but one challenger. The belief that he was building two and that they would be tried out against each other is doubtless trace- able to the fact that he has ordered another yacht from Designer Nichol- son for the Panama-Pacific Exposition at San Francisco.

We would have had orders before this if the authorities thought there was any need. “Therefore, we have done nothing in preparation for war. We have not even had a committee meeting. “If, however, the call comes, the Red Cross i ready. There are be- tween four and five thousand pro- fessional nurses enrolled in the Red Cross who could be mustered in twelve hours. “No; there is absoiutely no chance for women who are noy nurses to go as volunteer nurses. Such persons usually do as much harm as they do good because of their inefficiency. “In case there is a war the only thing the women of New York could do would be to organize to send deli- cacies to the sick. There are many things, of course, that the government cannot provide for tnem. This was done by New York women at the time of the Spanish war.” Mrs. Harriot Stanton Blatch, head of the Women's Political union, says that President Wilson has “made a botch of the Mexican affair from first to last.” A poll of the leading suffragists Monday failed to reveal one who was not opposed to war or who did not believe that the present misunder- standing might have been avoided. “Wilson,” said Mrs. Blatch, *‘should have recognized Huerta, What if Huerta is a dictator? Are our politi- cal methods in this country so clean that we can afford to be so virtuous about a neighbor? We should have recognized Huerta, and then let the Mexicans fight it out among them- selves. With pacific relations between the two countries, citizens of the United States in Mexico would be protected—quite as well looked out for as many of our own citizens here.” Mrs. Mary Ware Dennett, secretary of the National Woman Suffrage as- sociation, searched her vocabulary BY MAY at the waist line as shown in the two ways. or without the yoke facing.

They ought to be compelled to. “The plea that our citizens in th: country must be protected is an empty excuse, Are we so careful to protect our citizens at home?

Marshall Able to Get Only Draw at St. Pectersburg. St. Petersburg, April 22.—The first round of the international chess masters’ tourney was played in this | city yvesterday. The pairing was as follows: Janowski against Bernstein, Gunsberg against Alechine, Black- burne against Lasker, Niemzowitsch against Capablanca and Marshall against Rubinstein. Tarrasch had a bye. The latter two drew their game in short order, while Capablanca defeated Niemzowitsch. Janowski went down before Bernstein, Gunsberg lost to Alechine and Laskir disposed of Blackburne.

Every high school and grammar school needs a trade and vocation bureau. That is, some sort of an organization which wilk make an effort to tell young people about the trades and vocations open to them and help them find what they are fitted for. Congenial work is perhaps the greatest source of world, Uncongenial ‘'work is one of the greatest sources of unhappiness. And yet every year thousands of square pegs are unsuccessfully try- ing to fit themselves into round holes just because our young people’s choice of a trade or vocation is left so largely to chance. I wish that in every town or city in this country the woman’s club, or some other organization interested in young people, would form a trade and vocation bureau. The work of the bureau would be to investigate and classify the var- ious occupations and to tell the young people about them. Where possible someone who had made good in each occupation would be asked to speak before the school. When this was not possible, it would be the work of the various members of the bureau to look up the neces- sary facts about the occupation and present them to the pupils. By the necessary facts, I mean the cost of training and the -lest place to get it. The kind of temperzment and ability required; the salary to be expected; the advantages and disadvantages, and any other facts which might help each student to make up his mind whether that the kind of work he would like to take up. Some of the talks would be given in the grammar school and some in the high school. The bureau would have to study the situation in its town and decide such matters accordingly. T should advise that the high school talks be given as early as the sophomore vear, as the choice of «a high school course might be affected by a decision of this sort. I required an extra year of preparation because I didn’t decide what I wanted to do with myself until my last year in high school.™ Besides giving these talks, the bureau would hold itself ready to help any student who cared to come to them for further information. 1T met a woman whose daughter is in her last year at high school, the other day, and asked what they were going to do with her when she was through high school. ““We haven't any idea,” know what to do about it.” The case is typical. That girl will probably drift into any opening thal presents itself. She will not find the work that she could do best and happiest in doing. Imagine & factory in ard for any kind of work.
