OM 'EDITED BY MRS. M. M. HOLLIS A Well Educated Horse Women and the Campalgn Under a Chxcago dateline, August 23, many newspapers carried the intelligence that the’ women s campaign for the presi- dential nonunees had’ beg-un, one for. Hughes, and the other for leson Miss ‘Anne Marth) cha)rman of the Natlonal Woman’s party, opened her speakmg campalgn in behalf of Hughes and Fair- banks in Tllinois w1bh an address to Stu- dents at the Univer sity of Chicago. - - Mrs. George Bass, a Chicago. cIub woman and noted sufl"raglst on the same .‘day took " - much:/ - The'3 the Democratlc natlona hea.dquai'ters at o charge of the Women s Voters bureau at Chlcago, ‘and was visited by % 2 delegatlon of Democratic school teachers who prom- ised their support to Wilson. This is simply the most striking illus- tration of the different views that the ° women are taking of the best way to get woman suffrage—and the quibkest. Judge Hughes declared for suffrage, and at once many women leaders announced themselves at once for Hughes. Repub-* lican politicians declared he had “put one over on the president.” The president waited a day or two and then wrote a letter to a supporter declaring he could not see how a candidate’s personal views _ of suffrage could be valuable in the cam- paign, -since only his party’s position could result in legislation. This was re- garded-as an offset to the supposed ad- vantage Hughes got by “announcing his allegiance to ~suffrage first. Presxdent Wilson followed it by expressions of sym- pathy for the women who desire suffrage, but wanted the states to ‘enact it. ‘No sooner did women begin praising Judge Hughes, than other women began pointing out that his language had been rather ambiguous and maybe he was not in earnest. Others became bolder, and said he was trying to fool them. Some women anti-suffragists became mad, and_ declared their husbands would now vote for Wilson, and - that they/themselves would do all they could .against Hughes tjxeL ader ha vlit ft !ecé awarded eaeh week The: women “Yéaders' have— taken great interest in this contest, as shown by the great. number of rec1p'es submitted every - week, “more valuable and deserving reclpes than There have always been many could be possibly awarded prizes' and re- peatedly the woman’s page editor has been forced to pass by, recipes perhaps < fully as desemng df _prizes. as those to “whom. prizes were' awarded i The great suceess of the recxpe con- “'—that is all they could mthout the bal- lot. .. ADVICE FROM THE CABINET. A member: of President-Wilson’s, cabi- net received a- deputatxon ofwomen, and cautioned them against taking sides with Hughes because if they. did, he said, Con- gress might-get stubborn, and the Demo- cratic members'i _t Block-any attempt to - give ' the: (1] women “nationally. He: pmnbed out ‘th n"ent Were eces' and “this.s part:c neutrality. < A prominent woman suffraglst of suf- frage Colorado, after weighing pohtleal- ly the possible effect. of women’s activi- ty, also advised that they be neutral. On August 22 in the House of Repre- sentatives, Congressman, Aswell of Louis- iana took the good opportunity given him of gettmg into the Congressional Record with a story of how. Hughes vetoed a women’s pay bill while governor of New York. Tlus bill, he explamed wasito en- able women teachers in the public schools to receive the same. ‘wages as men when - they did the same kind of work and did . it as well. Governor Hughes vetoed it. _ WOMEN’S STRENGTH DIVIDED. “Let the women of the city of New York tell the women of the‘country how Mr. Hughes’\honeyed words now. square with his acts'as governor of New York,” he said. © “He was not’ w11hng then to give the women of his own state an equal chance to earn a living, but he is anxious - now to fool them into voting. the. Repub- lican ticket.” He praised President Wil- son, declaring the latter “had-the courage to go to New Jersey and: vote ‘for suf- frage~and he 3880/ women ‘voters’ qf‘ next Novem efiorts ‘may neutralfz’e each other. Contest test has encouraged us to try somethmg calling for greater thought and effort. We feel sure that we shall have the co- 'operatlon of -the women of North Dako- ta in this as well as in the recxpe con= tests. - The new scheme is to conduct a series of contests on the planning of meals for ‘an entire day. 'The bill-of-fare for: the ‘ day is to'be- submxtted w:th the amount of ‘each dish served.” 3 For the ‘menu select each week a wrize jfol'. Pubhcatlon of the recipe contest now being con- - ducted. the day remember these simple rules: Always give the number of persons to be served. Give the amounts of food to be cooked for each dish. It is not the idea of the editor of the - woman’s page to colleet a series of fancy dishes or a rich man’s bill-of-fare. We : prefer food plans that are actually in use on North Dakota farms. The means and the food resources of ‘the ordinary farm household should be considered. 'Those things being consid- ered, we want to get ideas for-the best balanced and most appetizing: and health- ful arrangements of table fare. . In making up these food tables the season of the year should be’ considered and the charaeter and needs of the par- ticular family. - It is well -to”éxplain’ of whom the family consists in submitting the schedule, how many are men doing heavy work on the farm, how many are _ children attending, school. Af provision has been made for some special need of one or more members of the family that = might be told. The editor would”be glad also if you would write a letter teling about your difficulties on providing the right sort of" food and how you try to overcome them. - Tell about your: difficulties in' getting’ meat and how often you use it, what you do about fruit supply, etec. 3 We believe this contest will be very in- teresting and will help you .and others if you will take part in it. While the prizes are small they will come weekly and the chances for contestants will be greater than in most contests conducted by magazmes of natlonal circulation. The series will start within two or three weeks. = The earliest contributions - will have the earliest chances at prizes. Letters in this contest may be subnutted at any time. = The recipe contest w111 be dlscontmued when the menu contest starts.
