May 9. “Well. ! swan .lust at this point the automobiles around Forty- second Street became Congested, and genial Pat’’ McDon ald. pride of the traffic cops and champion shot-putter of the w'orld, broke off his exclamation. Maybe it was best so, for Patrick had just been told that a Vassal* College girl was after bis shot-putting laurels and he seemed a bit “miffed.’’ He di<1 not seem at all pleased to think that his athletic prowess should be overshadowed not by a Voting college girl, at any rate. • But Miss Elizabeth Abigail Harden, of Newark. N .1.. and a freshman at Vassal*, is Just as proud of her record as McDonald is of his, and she said to-day that she wilt shortly do even better than 33 feet and 3-4 inches. In the shot-put McDonald’s mark for (he 24-pound shot is 39 feet and 3 3-4 inches. No Vassal- girl will ever reach Pat’s record, however, for they throw a seven-pound shot at the girl’s col lege. Miss Harden’s triumph came in the annual field meet at Vassal* last w eek, and she was easily the star of the d«>. Besides the shot-put even. Miss Harden Won the basket ball throwing contest with a mark of SO feet IS l-S in. lies and the baseball throwing with 205 feet 7 inches. In both the latter events she broke rec ords held by Miss Inez Milliolland, who heretofore had been held the champion all-around woman athlete. Like Miss Milliolland. the Newark girl is an ardent worker for votes for women, and the only blight to her triumphs of Saturday was the fact that the meet kept her from march ing with the other 10,000 women who are fighting for the ballot.

White City Park Now Open Recent Reports Show Hundreds t Suffer With Kidney Troubles and Don't Know It.

I go to prepare a place for you.” You believe, and yet are troubled. His cross and love have made you dissatis fied with self and with what you see and hear. Visions of a heavenly home for you can not soothe you, so long as yonder hovels pour streams of children into Mammon’s maw. “They should be at play,’’ you say. Instead, factories and mills are marring their hearts and lives to make dividends for men. Not this did Jesus mean, when He said: “Suffer the little children to come unto Me.” And you would not—could not still the pity born of His spirit surging in your heart. Rightly, you deny that woman’s virtue de pends on money. But many families receiving less than a liv ing wage must live within cheerless walls. And this, you know— When their girl is lost, fathers and mothers are not consoled by the thought that, had their wage been greater they could have saved her from the colorless, gloomy home which made her the more easily believe the luring lies of an easier way to live. “Better had she died,” you cry. True! But you will not defend the hovel and the wage. You recall: “The day-spring from on high hath visited us, “To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet in the way of peace.” And so, when some misguided man says: “Segregate a few women for the common good.” You answer: “Who shall choose the victims? “Since when did God give man the right to assign some to mansions in the skies and send others to lodgings in hell?” You justly say: “Have done with the lie that men being lower than beasts makes necessary the ruin of some women!” Even should a creature, like the fabled Min otaur of Crete, more monster than man, ap pear, you will not talk of sacrificing girls for him. Instead, you will lock up the brute. Segregate him in a cell; that would be well. The day has past for the making and seiyng of white slaves in our city. God’s pity for His children is opening your eyes and ears. You will help your sister. Never again will you consent by silence to her destruction. Heaven help the man who thinks you will. You are awake. “You believe in God.” THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE MEN AND RELIGION FORWARD MOVEMENT.
