"July crackera r* repeated the bunny.
"Sure," went on Johanle, the aquirrel. "Don't

"Thuredsy," anawered tJucle Wiggily.

"What things?" asked Sammie, the rabMt
,4Oh, shooting off fire crackers and torpedo«M
and eanuon and sky rockets and squibs and
chasers and Roman candles and all that. It
isn't allowed any more, because so many chil

burned, and so on. No more of the old Fourth

"But what can we do?** asked Johnnie. "Wo

"Yes, I know you do," spoke Uncle Wiggily,
"and I'll try to help yoa. But instead of mak

Uncle Wiggily shook his pink nose.
"No," he said. "It is beet not to. Yon

that you have a good time."
Johnnie and Willie and Sammie were not sure
that this would happen. Still they didn't want
to say no to Uncle Wiggily. The next duy was
Foarth of July. Up to the hoi lew stump bun-
galow came the animal boys and girls, for the
squirrels and the rabbit chaps had told all their
frieids that there was to be a surprise.

AUSTIN, Tex., July 7. - Of all the places
In Texas where the registration of women
voters Is being carried on under the new
law which gives them the right of suffrage
In primary elections, there was no openlug
scene of more dramatic interest than tnat
which was witnessed at Austin. It was
here that Mrs. Minnie Fisher Cunningham,
president of the Equal Suffrage Associa-
tion of Texas, and several members of her
band of veterau workers for that cause,
fathered to witness the first registrations,
June 'J6. They were upon the scene at d
o'clock In the morning, although the time
fixed for opening the registration offI<*"
was not until 8 a. m. As an accommoda-
tion, however, the doors were thrown open
and the registration began shortly after
their arrival.
For Mrs. Cunningham and the other
women who hud been prominent in aiding
her in the long fight for equal suffrage
It was a momentous event. It meant the
realization of long deferred hopes. Not
a girl who had not reached the voting age
of !il years, but who will have done so
before the date of the Democratic pn-
totallng lflfl.000 tons are under constrm**
Hon besides 71,0410 ton* of steel Railing
vessels and 10,838 tons of wooden steam

that their voting rights have as yet been
fully recognized, but giving them the right
to participate iu the primaries places with- _ _... ._
in their hands the power to have their | marles on July 27. One woman more than
* * ^ years old was on the scene early and
proudly registered her name as a qualified
voter.
There is much speculation being Indulged
In. particularly by the candidates for
State office, as to wh^t will be the politi-
cal strength of the women in the coming
primaries. The period of registration
closes on July 12. At the heavy rate «U
which the women are registering it is
estimated by some that there will be
placed fully 400,000 of these new voters
upon the rolls.
Among the leading suffrage workers who
were with Mrs. Cunningham at the open-
ing of the registration office in Austin
were Mrs. Pervy V I'enilybacker, former
president of the National Federation of
Women's Clubs; Mrs. J. A. Jackson, Mrs.
A. N. McCallum, Mrs. D. II. Doom, Mrs.
J. D. Clay brook, Mrs. W. D. Hart, Miss
Marian Hawkins, ami Mrs. T. II. Bowman.
suffrage extended soon to general elections
by means of an amendment to the Con-
stitution.
The new experience of participating in
politics through the first step of regis-
tration was enjoyable and not without its
interesting and humorous incidents for
those who comprised the early morning
group upon the opening of the registra-
tion office In Austin. Besides the women
j there werv on hand several professional
politicians and meu candidates for office.
Some of these seekers for political favors
were timid about soliciting the support of
the women. Others, however, were not at
all backward about handing out their
cards and asking that they be given the
votes of the registrants.
One of the earliest of those who regis-
tered was a married woman, who came
to the office rolling a baby carriage con-
taining her smiliug infant; another was
paws he held a bljr dish, and the bang bang
noise came from that.
"What is It?" asked Lulu Wlbblcwobble, the
duck.
"July crackers," answered Uncle Wiggily,
with a smile. "Nurse Jane Fuszy Wuszy made
them. They're sweet crackers, with sugir
strawberry frosting on top, aid when you break
they in pieces to eut tli'-ra the crackers crack
like a torpedo and a small cannon. SeeP'

Otto F. Bond, Instructor In Romance
languages at the University of Texas who
i* absent on leave that he may devote
his time to war work, stationed hero
as recruiting secretary for Young Men's
Christian Association work with the French
and Italian armies, says that one of the
difficult problems he has to meet, is per-
suading men of the largeness and im-
portance of the Young Men's Christian As-
sociation war service. Mr Bond's terri-
tory embraces Texas, Arizona, Oklahoma,
Arkansas, New Mexico and Louisiana, lie
says that men for the Young Men's Chris
ti.m Association war work must be of
sufficient caliber not only to render Im-
mediate aid and comfort to the ullle-1
armies, but to represent to France und to
Italy the best types of American citizen-
ship. He epitomizes the purpose of the
Young Men's Christian Association over-
seas service, for which he is uow recruit
ing men, as follows:
"To help maintain the morale of the
French and Italian armies; to combat the
Insidious German propaganda behind the
lines; to develop the efficiency of the men;
to evince our own interest in and feeling
for our allies; to bring back home an un-
derstanding and appreciation of these peo-
ples; to prepare for future commercial ann
social world service.
"Consider the weakening through war-
weariness, the enforced Idleness of multi-
tudes of men not engaged In war at the
fronts, the cunning and energetic German
war propaganda, the moral und physical
need of strong, cheerful, American opti-
mism, and of the presence of assurance
of America's unfailing spirit aud re-
sources."
Mr. Pond sa.vs that it is the desire to
recruit immediately in the territory em-
braced in the Southern Department seven-
ty five men for Young Men's Christian As-
sociation service with the French army
and seventy-five men for similar .service
with the Italian army. Men who are ac-
cepted for their work are allowed all trav-
eling expenses, all living expenses and an
allowance for family expenses, if neces-

Shoe Talks
No. 2
For many years we have made it our fixed
policy to acquire every possible bit of informa-
tion about the shoe industry which we can ob-
tain from any source, and to record such in-
formation for ready access.
Our specialists, in every branch of the shoe
business, have made a continual study of fac-
tory methods, manufacturing policies, raw ma-
terial production, styles and workmanship.
This knowledge adds remarkably to the char-
acter, quality and value of our shoes.
We test every new process or idea that prom-
ises improvement. The great volume of our
business enables us to specify that new ideas
shall be utilized, even where it requires a radi-
cal change in the standard practice of a great
shoe factory. Every shoe we sell evidences the
wisdom and value of this policy.
