Then you can count on Seattle lodge No, 92, B P. 0. E,, to do its part, and to do more than its part. i Is there a worthy cause to be supported, a dependent child to looked after, a heroic deed to be recognized, a family to be rehabilitated, a great civic project to be fostered? You | ‘ean count on the Elks. 3 That $2,700 should be raised by voluntary subscriptions of Elks in one evening, and that they should raise it amid merrymaking and joyous rivalry, to show their appreciation | of the services rendered by a brave man, who died in the ‘ormance of duty, is but another instance of that good fellowship which is so characteristic of No. 92. The Seattle lodge has become a good deal more than a} fraternal organization in Seattle. It is an institution. } May it continue its great work—and always, as now,) with wholehearted cheerfulness! | ITSJUSTAMYTH—| Editor of The Star: All the papers but you fellows are rinting big articles about the Russian revolutionary plot hind the railway strike.

That was when the extravagant spendthrift was a rare bird. Throwing away money in an orgy of wastefulness was something to talk dbout. So few did it. But now? No! Why? Because there are so many of them. Almost, it seems, the thrifty person, the careful , is an extinct creature. Money does come easier. And it does go easy! A Southern paper tells of 60 carloads of automobiles going thru one city. Presperity? Yes. But these automobiles _ were riding in coal cars. And these coal cars were needed for hauling coal. While they were thus being used in carrying automobiles hundreds of cities and towns in this country were crying for coal. Coal mine operators said they couldn’t get freight cars. But the automobiles got them! | Luxuries have the inside track. | Importations at the port of New York for February: ; we 9 million dollars in diamonds from Holland; over! 23 000 in pearis; over $800,000 in other precious stones; over $800,000 in beads, and other millions in laces, per- fumes, feathers, flowers, etc., etc., all thru the list. of les. There is a shortage in overalls, working clothes, working shoes, working tools, machinery, building materials, while! ships are laden with luxuries, railroads are hauling lux-| aries, and factories are working overtime creating other| luxuries and are not turning out what they once did and} what is so badly needed—the necessities of life. | All this supply of luxuries is due to one thing: } The demand for luxuries, and the ability to pay for them. | ¢ THE SEATTLE STAR—SATURDAY, APRIT, 17, 1920, EVERETT TRUE H@LLO, EVERETT.

Public Health Service The Century dictionary says an emergency “is an un- expected happening; an unforeseen occurrence or condition; specifically, a perplexing contingency or complication of |« circumstances.” Isn't that just the fix the suffrage amendment finds itself in? With 35 ratifications and one to go, Delaware pro-| vides the “unforeseef? occurrence or condition” With the! election not many moons off and with some millions of | women Who ought to vote, but can’t if the 36th state doesn’t ratify before November, there certainly exists aj “perplexing contingency or complication of circumstances.” In plainer language, it is an emergency, and as Noah ba ag proclaimed, “an emergency is an occaston for action. But Governor Marcus Holcomb insists the demand for action by Connecticut’s legislature may not be satisfied by the calling of a special session “because this is no emergency.” To millions of American women it is an . No doubt about it. It is probable that Connecticut will ratify the amendment when the legislature meets. But Governor Holcomb refuses | hich altitna to cal] the special session because, he says, this is not an emergency, “it is only a situation created by the desire} of a number of individuals to have the general assembly vote on the amendment.” That’s all it is, but if that isn’t an emergency, never a one existed. The trouble lies with Governor Holcomb. He is unable to recognize an emergency when he meets with Equality act, the first of its kind in the country, provides that a child born out of wedlock is the child of its natural parents, and as such, is entitled to support, shelter and education) equally with other children born in legal marriage, and is entitled to share in any estate jointly with all other legal The law was held constitutional in a case tried at Fargo.
