In the hours of weakness a. man may ex cuss himself to his friends and to his family, but God and all the world knows It is a lie.

The foregoing sentences were taken at random from the sermon of Dr. George "Wood Anderson, delivered last night at the united gospel cru sade tabernacle. East Third and Irv ing streets.

Offer to Buy Advertising in News if Support Were Given Pat terson Held False. Joseph R. Bowles, president of the Northwest Steel company of Port land, yesterday repudiated an alleged interview with Fred L. Boalt, pub lished in the Portland News April 1, In which it was related by Mr. Boalt in a first-page editorial article that Mr. Bowles, on behalf of himself and his friends, had offered to buy $1000 worth of advertising in the News If the News would support Senator I. L. Patterson for governor. Mr. Bowles declares he was not in this city from March 16 to April 13, being in New York, and that he never was inter viewed by Mr. Boalt. Mr. Bowles yesterday made the fol lowing statement: On April 1 an editorial in one of the local newspapers featured an interview purporting to. have been held with me. The alleged interview is a pure .fabrica tion, for which there la no excuse, as Mr. Boalt sat with me in war committee meet ing during the war. As I left Portland on March 16 for New York, not returning home until the evening of April 13, !t is quite evident that Mr. Boalt had no inter view with me whatever. I do not know Mr. Boalt's reason for the statement that he had an interview with mo in his office. I will merely state that he did not have such an interview with me at any time on the subject men tioned in the article nor on any other subject. Mr. Boalt can best explain why he attributed the interview to me. My object in requesting the publication of this statement is to correct a public impression which might naturally be cre ated by sHence. Mr. Boalt, in a signed article, said that Mr. Bowles called upon him at the office of the News and "went directly to the point," saying he had come on behalf of himself and friends to say that, "if it were con sistent with the policy of the News' to support Senator Patterson for gov ernor, that "I and my friends will buy $1000 worth of advertising in the News." Mr. Boalt then went on to state how badly it made him feel thus to be offered what he construed as a sort of bribe; that he had been think ing over the situation himself and 'had thought that Senator Patterson and Governor Oleott (also a candi date) were both good men and he had been unable to choose between them. However, after the alleged offer by Mr. Bowles, he said. "I am not angry at him. Rather, I am grateful, for he has helped me make up my mind."

FEMIiSffKli PE1AHT, BELIEF Conclusion Is Reached by Many Female Observers. PIPES DE LUXE IN VOGUE Perfumed Cigarettes and Bejeweled Holders Are on Display In Shops of New York. NEW YORK, - April 6. (Special.) When the Nebraska state board of education banned the emoking col leges; when . Representative Johnson of Mississippi introduced in congress a bill "to prevent female persons from smoking in the District of Co lumbia," and when a less hopeful member of the Massachusetts legis lature came forward with his law to forbid women from "smoking In pub lic places," what did the docile, obedi ent woman do? Did she lower her eyes demurely and turn from her wickedness? She did not. The result of all this toullying has been to make the "female person" smoke more. An indignant Nebraskan doing post graduate work on Morningside heights posted by-the elevator door of her dormitory the newspaper clip ping saying that no teacher from her state would be given leave of ab sence to attend Columbia or any other college where women smoked. To It she fastened a blank eheet of paper with the caption: "What is your reaction to this, fel low countrymen? Write it below." Comment! Are Written. In less than a day the elevator door became a billboard full of "reactions," clippings, comments. The school board and the two representatives already referred to would have learned much could they have seen this modern "dclaratlon of inde pendence" and "bill of rights." One middle westerner wrote: "When I read this newspaper item I Immediately smoked my first cigar ette, so that there would be even less chance of my ever landing at Ne braska normal." Another co-ed wrote: " "If the Nebraska girls can't go to college where women smoke, where are they going to get an education, anyway?" There is no doubt that a great many women smoke today In a spirit of defiance, because they regard it as one of their precious and hard won privileges, which they must ex ercise in order to hold it for future generations. . A recent Vassar graduate, now studying at Columbia, asked an inti mate friend: "Do you really like to smoke? I just hate the taste of it. I never do it when I'm alone, but when I'm out with anyone else I Just puff and puff away." Women Have Smokers. - Some women smoke that they may not be considered different or "be hind the times." The New York woman brave enough to admit that she doesn't smoke is becoming rarer and rarer. . One woman has hit on a protective scheme of which she Is very proud. "I got so tired," she . said, "of say ing 'I don't smoke' when every one else is doing it, so now I just an swer 'No cigarettes today,' thank you; I am having a little trouble with my throat and have sworn off for a week or so.' " Just as many men are aiding and abetting the women as trying to put them down. In Canada the "restless 1 sex" not only have their own smok ing cars on the trains, but in St. Catherine street. In Montreal they have their own wineshop, run exclu sively for and by women. Americans, though they have not gone quite so far, are rapidly catch ing up. One New York theater is putting In a special smoking room for women, such as Chicago has had for more than a year. The shops along Fifth avenue blaze with feminine smok'ng accessories, which are grow ing more and more ornamented, be jeweled and perfumed. The latest 01 these smoking novel ties, imported from England is the woman s pipe. It is straight-stemmed and smaller than a man's and may be bought at up-to-date shops at prices ranging from $16 to $35. A neat leather "pouchette," holding enough tobacco for one smoke, is made to go with it. One company handling these pipes reports the sale of a good many to women, young and old, from the middle west. One New York woman smoker said: "I like it better than the cigarette because it keeps the smoke' away from my eyes." Holders Are Bejeweled. You can buy your better half a holder of agate banded with plati num and set with diamonds for $250; or a case which also contains a mir ror, a powder puff and a place for visiting cards. Or you may send her a box of cigarettes scented with vio lets or oriental perfumes, or tipped with rose leaves or variegated silk; or bearing her monogram, her nam or her picture. Or if you dislike the smell of smoke and she insists upon doing It, send her some "ambars" at 10 cents apiece, which are chemically treated and so highly perfumed that the tobacco smell is absorbed. So in New York, if not in Ne braska, the determination of the modern woman to smoke is being re garded as settled. At a meeting in January of the directors of 30 girls' clubs, held at the girls' community club, an eloquent plea for smoking rights was made by Mrs. Dunlap Hopkins, head and founder of the New York school of applied design. She favored special smoking rooms for girls' clubs, dormitories and boarding houses, and said that her experience with 21,000 young women had convinced her that the smoking woman had come to stay.
