Party Lines Discontinued in Women's Politics, According to
"It is quite obvious that the old political parties are well broken up," said Dean Agnes Husband in speaking of the women's election yesterday. "The mixed ballo, indicated that the votes had been cast for the candidates rather than for any party affiliations."
There were only a few more than four hundred votes cast this year, and there was no one voting for her year. "There was no one telling the women that they had to come out and vote" and "Miss Husband," "but they did not." This matter as it does in any other"
"Of course," she continued, "they were many good women who were not elected, but just the citizens of their cities and becoming acquainted with so many people will probably help them in later elections. I am well pleased with this new system in urban areas. I feel that every case those who I chosen are capable women."
Dean Husband Approves
Dean Dubhair also said that she approved of the quietness about the polls, and that the elections were much more satisfactory when there was no electioneering, and the caucus could go to their classes as usual.

Kaiser to Return "Ruler or Corpse," Declares Chaplain
r. Johannes Vogel Believes a Great Injury Has Been Given the Hohenzo尔兖ers
[United Press]
Berlin, Marien, Sitting in his study in Potdam, surrounded by pictures of the Kaiser and by royal ambles, the former court chaplain, Dr. Johannes Vogel, explained to the United Press correspondent the ideas and aspirations of his "Imperial Master" and himself.

Court Chplain Vogel, a former army officer, lacks the familiar appearance of a minister. Indeed, he looks, talks, and walks like a cavalry major and his divine calling can be discerned neither from his waving mustache nor from his humble hands. A Wilhelm II, with whom he constantly corresponds, is one of the staunched nationalists in Pottsdam.
Injustice Done Kaiser
**injustice DONE**
A troublemaker has been done to the Katie Vogel dearly declared. "By fleeing across the Dutch border, he saved his people from civil war and bloodshed. What else was he to do? To go home to Berlin as a beaten man was out of the question. His honor would never permit that. And to die a hero's death on the battlefield would not do either; his enemies declined that he was committed suicide, leading his country to destruction.
"So he preferred to go to Holland and stay there. This, too, he did in the interest of his country and his people.
"Will he ever come back?" In his own words, he will return either as Kaiser or an aide. He will be considering the lamentable sentiments against him." The imperial chapulin turned his attention to the Kaiser's life in Doorn. "He leads a feudal repression," he said. Doctor Vogel "America should extend him an invitation. It would be a wonderful change for him and would recompose him for the hospitable treatment he bears at the hands of a town ole."
Respect New Hindenburg Government Questioned to his own political convictions, the Reverend Doctor Voelc said;
"We have sworn the oath of allegiance to the Kaiser and no oath exists which can be recalled. The hearts of all faithful men in Germany belong to him, and they must serve for 500 years. We respect the new government, especially since it is headed by Hindenburg, but we cannot forget the old regime, which actually built up this country and the traces of it see all around as best Potsdam."

More than 100 Coast Guard officers are licensed air pilots and aviable personnel. Admiral Billard plans eventually to build up a flying service of about 65 scaphores to patrol the Great Lakes, the Gulf, Atlantic and Pacific coast. Under present tentative plans it will be detailed for service off the New England Coast to prevent the re-establishing of "rum row" off New York and Massachusetts. One plane will operate off New Jersey, one off North Carolina and the one off Florida with Miami as its base.
Can Spot Ship Many Miles Officials said that the sky-police would be able to "spot" a liquor ship 30 miles away while the vision from a boat is only about five miles. Fliers after aircraft show that the ship will sail on a patrol boat and the capture will then be made by a dry air, surface vessel.

Lindley Young, A. B. 22, who for the past three years has been on the staff of the Pablo Chiefman and expect soon to join the staff of the news department in reporting II class this morning. Mr. Young believes that the newspaper man needs to make his work and position in a professional spirit. He is doing it, Mr. Young believes. "By organization and higher salaries to the employee, the small teams are standard of his profession, he said.
Mr. Young believes that the staffs of the average paper are growing better. The students of the schools are often equipped than are those who merely "pick up" the profession. "The graduate of the journalism school is not the only student to write headies much better," he said, "but has learned tricks in getting news."

Miss Gardner Speaks on Life of T. Hardy, England's Oldest Poet
"Thomas Hardy, England's oldest yet young poet, as expressed by a reviewer of one of his books, is now spoken of as the novelist who writes poems but in later works he wrote novels," said Miss Lila Gardner, in her lecture yesterday afternoon, on the works and life of the author. "Thomas Hardy wrote most novels in his early years and was regarded as the foremost source of literature," she said.
Writer Almost 86 Years Old Still Holds Hatred for Polite Society
Miss Garner gave a sketch of his early life. "It was not until after he became an apprentice to a firm of architECTs that he studied College in London.
"Thomas Hardy classifies his novels in four groups," and Miss Gardner, "these of environment and character, romances of fantasy, intrigue, and a mislaneous group. The names he gives the cities and lands in his novels, are almost as well-known to the peanuts as the real names themselves."
It was this training, no doubt, which it helped him appreciate in keenly English art, for much of his work was the remodeling or tearing down of old buildings.
"The common people are sympathetically and beautifully portrayed, but the dialect is modified and not typical of the English tittersme. One of the great contracts of Harib's life is that the literature is the lack of poverty, starvation and suffering among the peasant class.
"Thomas Hardy is 85 years old, almost 86 now, and is still living at Max Gate where his home has been for the last 40 years. He solidly appears in public. His later years have been devoted entirely to the writing of poetry.
"Thomas Hardy was a man far before his time," said Miss Gardner, "and people failed to appreciate his work, generally, until after the war. Men returned with him and they found that Hardy and always expressed what they now felt and what other contemporary authors were returned to. One of his best works is Orestea of Thomas Hardy's works is his hatred of public society."
E. E. Milliken Explains Universities of Canada
At the meeting of the French Club Wednesday, E. E. Milliken, formerly a student at the University of Saskatchewan, spoke on "Canaada."
Mr. Milliken contrasted the university life of Canada with that of the United States. He said that the principal difference was in the organics department; university sports are almost entirely unorganized, and there is no college spirit at all to speak of. Mr. Milliken said that in all the time that he was there, the university only posed a challenge, the leader, and he was an American.
The movement against denominational schools has resulted in Canada having only about twelve universities at the present time.
The discussion on the possibility of the United States ever annexing Canada was described by the speaker as being highly improbable.
