II C PROG i ELGIN (Special) The Elgin Women's club held their annual Kducationnl Fund program on Thursday afternoon at tho Knights of Pythias hall. This year the club asked Miss Nellie Hush and Mrs. David Blumcnsteln to arrange a program with their pupils in the second and third grades In the public school taking part. Due to the nearness of the date' to the birthday of George Washington a patriotic program was given. The little folks showed the results of careful training and work on their part. A large crowd 'attended the program which consisted of dra matizations, a flag drill, drills in colonial and Indian costume, a vocal solo by little Rose Murle Hazen and a reading by Miss Mar garet Morgan of the high school faculty. Following the program the women of the club served cuke and coffee in the dining room. The junior class of the high school gave a play "Cheer Up, Chad,"- ut the opera house Wed nesday evening.

Each of the churacters In the play showed the results of careful training and study. The pluy was under the direction of Miss Mar garet Morgan. A large crowd was In attendance and a good sum was j added to the student body treas ury to pay on the gymnasium. Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Cates are spending this week on the ranch near Palmer Junction.

The- constitu tion provides also that when throe Court ha of the- stales have rati fied a proposed amendment, it shall be proclaimed. This Is done by the slate depurtmenl. But the constitution makes no provision for proclaiming the defeat of. a pro posed . amendment and thoroby closing the chapter. Bills now am pending In Congr"M o have defeat as well us ratification pro claimed, but if enacted into law they probably would not affect the ohtld lubor amendment,, but would apply to future proposals. ' The state department. In addl iinn to being the department or foreign affblrs of the government, is thiL recording office where laws passed I ry congress are officially registered.' t It takes ho notice pf the proposed laws which fall of enactment. And It has not been the practice for states Jo report a hen lhy rejected u constitutional amendment... They only report when they accept one. But the question of how long a proposed amendment may pend. while state legislatures nre swayed one way and the other upon If. presents a question which ultimat ely may come to the supreme courl of the Uulted Stales. The pro ponents of the child labor amend ment argue that states have chang ed before- and been recorded ac cording to their latest decision. Congress, In submitting the pro posed amendment to the states, did not fix any time limit within which t'hey must act, as it did in the pro hibition ' amendment,, the eight eenth... In that case congreus" re quired action within six years. But in the case of the child labor amendment there Is no such llmin utlon und the supporters of the change contend that the amend ment run be made effective any time ifti states ratify it.
