HELEN KKIN STARRETT will go as one of the delegates from the Equal Suffrage alliance of Portland to the fifty-first annual con vention of the National Woman Suff rage association, to be held In Chicago. February U to 18. Thla convention will be epochal In the history of the long struggle for woman suffrage. Its first convention was called by Susan B. An thony to meet in Washington, D. C in 1869, when the National Woman Suff rage party was organized. The avowed purpose of the party was to work for woman suffrage through nations con stitutional amendment As this plan was first announced by Mis Anthony and consistently advocated by her through all succeeding years It Is known as the Susan B. Anthony amendment. An Incident of interest In this connec tion js that it was during a suffrage campaign in Kansas conducted by Miss Anthony, Lucy Stone and others, in 1868. when Miss Anthony was for six weeks the guest of Mra Starrett In Lawrence, Kan that she first an nounced her conviction that the true way to gain suffrage was through , a con stitutional amendment Here, also, she first announced her determination to call a convention and form a new suff rage party to work for suffrage through tills method. Mrs. Starrett Was a dele gate from Kansas to that first con vention Just 61 years ago. So far as known she is the 'only living delegate tr that first convention. It will be a matter of Interest to herself and her friends that she saw the organization of the party; and 61 years later will see Its close; as. Its work being accom plished. It will probably be merged into the National League of Women Voters. It is a happy coincidence that the one hundredth anniversary of Miss An thony's birth, February 15. 1820, will occur during the convention. It will be appropriately celebrated. Another incident of Interest to Mrs. StarrettSs friends is that as one of the 100 electors of the Hall of Fame of New York university she has been notified by the president of the board of electors. Robert Underwood Johnson, that the fifth quinquennial election will take place May 1, this year. It had been feared by some that the stress of the great war would interfere with Interest in this national institution too little known outside of the Eastern states. Five names are to be added to the list of Immortals now recorded In that noble colonnade and buildings on University Heights in New York city. The occa sion will be one of national Interest Mrs. Starrett expects to go to Washing ton and New York after a stay of a few Have YouREALL Y; Head the New A ll Record HYATT Talking Machine Co weeks in Chicago.

Idea Frowned On Boston mothers- and professional women- are opposed to Charlotte Perkins Oilman's Idea, launched at the women doctors' convention In New York, that " mothers ought to' employ a "profes sional" mother to mind their children at home while they go Into town dally to ! pursue thelr"careers." Miss Kalherine Shepard, director ot the Household Nursing association, - Is emphatic In the negative. "It Is the business of a married woman to Stay home and take care of her own Chil dren," says Miss Shepard. "g"he whole tendency of the day is away from in stitutions for children. Those babies" who have to remain in hospitals through long months, who are laid on thetr beds and left to the precise care of trained science, develop dully. A baby needs Its mother about from the first to coax K Into exDresslon. The fault with the hired mother is that she doesn't lovs the. children as the real mother does. You cannot hire affection. And you cannot develop the child fittingly with out affection. In fact love of a child Is quite as Important as right milk, or air. or sunshine." Which is an opinion curtly concurred In by Dr. ' ugene Kelley of the stats board of health, and Dr. Edith Cave, physician In regular practice and a mother as well. " , W f il
