Kath arine, llcinont Davis, who presided on the platform of the Kccinl, ns the "Mothers' Special." Of the number of women on the train, however, only four could he found who were moth ers, except in u large sense, one being inlro. lined by Dr. Davis as "the mother of all the children in Chicago;" another ns "the mother of thousands if New York children. " Throughout the meeting an appeal was made to the mothers in the throng to vole for Charles Kvnns Hughes, and secure to their ehihlri'ii the benefits of child tvelfnre legislation. The first speaker was Mrs. Kay. tiiond Kobins, who explained lo tin1 crowd what H wonderful friend the laboring masses have in Charles Kv uns Hughes, nnd cited the passage of labor laws in New York state during Lis administration ns governor. 8twk fir Hughe. Afore sweeping labor laws govern ing the working hours ami working conditions affecting women employes were predicted should Hughes be elected president. "The strength of the race," Mrs. llohins concluded, "is determined by the htrengtb of the. mothers of that race. I ask you to assist in carrying Charles Kvnns Hughes to the while bouse, that the health and strength of the yimng working girls of the race, who lire its future inulhcrs, may hi' preserved." .Mrs. Noble Prentiss of Kansns fol lowed, and after lauding the beauties nnd possibilities of the Kogue Iliver valley, and especially the former Kan Mins who live hero, asked the women of this section to unite in furthering the cause of Hughes. Avert Jap Iforile. The next speaker was Mary Ant in. who discussed labor problems in gen eral, anil iih they applied to this val ley, predicting n horde of .laps set tling in this section in the event sugar beet, culture is followed. This eursr might be nu'i'lod, sho stated, by elect ing Charles Kvnns Hughes, whieli event would, in some unexplained way, cause this section, along with the rest of the country districts, to be settled wilb the present, inhabitants of the lower rpuirtcrs of the cities. "I would like to stop off nnd nnd nut how your little sugar beet faclorv is coming along,'1 she stated, "nnd lmw your relations with the king ol the Japs are coot inning." Dr. Walker of Chicago, following, told of the thousands of liable brought to her, blind and deformed and asked women to carry Hughes to the white liouse that the fuudamenlal conditions, overwork, long hours nnd privation, lying at the bottom of tin condition of these babes, might be remedied by Hughes, "the friend ol' those who labor.'1 Mi. MM Talks. The last speaker of the afternoon was Mrs. Maude Howe Klliott, daugh ter of Julia Ward Howe, Mis. Klliott Mated that she had a message to tin America u people from her mother. Shi described a scene of the year ltln'.t when, together, Hughes and Mrs. Jlowe were given ail honorary degree At that lime Mrs. Howe said to bei daughter of Mr. Hughes: "Thai man is destined to go far." "And I pray, concluded Mis. Klliott. ''that with the help of the Almighty nnd of you women, he may go as far lis the white house." As the end of the time allotted for the stop drew near, members of I hi' (lolden Special crew, supplemented hv local vocalists .recruited for the oc casion, shuck up inc "iiatue iivum of the Kcpiiblic." Swinging of ling nnd nn earnest invitalion to "join in the chorus, ' failed to move the crowd nnd the crew sailed away, singine. alone, while the audience drilled awav to the hand conceit and to llnvmar kel, where a rabid socialist talked for the rest of the afternoon. The Midtord band welcomed the ioei.-il at the rcipirst of the (ireater Medford chili. Dopitc the fact that it was Sunday nnd it had been adver tised that politics were not to be dis missed, "vote for Hughes" was the theme of all the siciikcrs.

It makes you feel the way you look more efficient; ready to "mix things" with business; it helps to restore the energy that has been sapped by a long, hot summer. It's a great thing even if it only lasts officially two weeks: it shows men how much clothes have to do with success the effect of such a campaign lasts months. This we know: If you dress up in Hart Schaffner & Marx fine clothes suit or overcoat you can easily have that "dressed-up" feeling all fall and winter, they are clothes that are made for that; they keep stylish looking.
