And still, some men say the women do such impractical things.

Listen. The men are going about the country whooping things up in a a bsle of cotton campaign. Tl.ey say the cotton crop of the south must be made profitable to the crow rs or the south will be panic swept. The women are going them one better the women are going wear garments made of American cotton. The men will not.

At least the women think they wfli not. The men cry out: 'Buy a bale of cotton." The women are golr.g Quietly to work and use the cotton by working the fabric up into calico dresses, aprons, bonnets and numerous other bits of raiment. They are going to use ca.ico while the men are yelling col ton. Mirs Genevieve Clark, daughter of the Speaker of the houj e. was the first to suggest that made in America cotton goods be bought by women.

The Idea was quickly taken up by a certain smart of society people in the east. Cotton parties where everybody wore calico dresses, calico parades, cai.co fetes, and calico dinners quickly became popular, and then came the "buy a bale of cottonv movement. Enthusiasm Aroused. This was all well and good, but where will it lead and what aoodwill these society affairs do. the serious minded women asked.

The clubwomen began talkirg about It. One woman met another and asked: "What do you think of this back to the calico movement?" It usually was met with the greatest enthusiasm and women expressed themselves as being only too glad if it wouli become the "style" to wear pretty calicoes and other cotton dresses. Women remlniecently began to tell of dresses they wore as girls, and how pretty and clean, comfortable and healthful, ivere the "tub" dresses they) used to wear. It soon became evident that the wom en's clubs throughout the country must take the matter up. Nearly all the reform movements and matters of Interest to women have grown out of women's clubs.

So the matter has been widely discussed, and the Indiana clubwomen rose to. the occasion and have decided to make the "back to the calico" days a real thing. It is expected that before the end of October everr woman in Indiana will know what "back to the calico days" means. i Prominent Women Leaders. Prominent "cTubw'omen, such as Mrs.

Mrs. MeWhirter, who claims the south as her birthplace. Is enthusiastic over the movement and wTll introduce at the state meeting of the Federation of Clubs a resolution that women lend their support to the movement, and that they practfee what they proach. Ha. to the calico days with the clubwomen is not to mean giving "cotton" party where everybody goes and wears a calico dress made just for the occasion and then is hung up in a closet and never worn again.

It Is to moan that women will pledge themselves to wear calico and clnaham house dresses. that the school children be dressed In calico, that wherever possible household furnishings be of cotton, and that so far as posslnle American made goods be bought. Clubwomen Closely Allied. 'The clubwomen of this state so closely allied to the women of the southern said Mrs. MeWhirter, "that I am sure we will all rejoire in being able to help our southern sisters in ttiis, their hour of need.

The movement will mean 'a return to the more sanitary apparel for children. Schoolgirls would en oy the chance if the fashion was set.

RESIGNED NOT TO BE IMPEACHED HOUSE TO ABANDON PROCEED INGS rN WRIGHT CASE. BASIS OF MR. PARK'S CHARGES WASHINOTON. October 7. Daniel Thew Wright, formerly of Cincinnati.

Justice of the supreme court of the District of Columbia, who resigned yesterday. In a letter to the President, has declared that the charges made against him as a basis for Impeachment had been disproved, but that the local bar has taken sides to such an extent that embarrassment must Inevitably follow in disposing of the business of the court. Within an hour after Justice Wright announced his intention to retire steps had been taken to annul the Impeachment proceedings. Representative Peterson, of Indiana, of the subcommittee on Judiciary, was instructed to prepare a report that Justice Wright has resigned and recommending that further proceedings against him be abandoned. Appointed by Roosevelt.

Justice Wright was appointed to the bench by President Roosevelt, in whose court certain newtpaper men were Indicted for criminal libel in connection with the Panama canal case. He created antagonism by his handling of the Gompers contempt case. The attention given his action in that case caused the Nebraska Democratic state convention to call on the state's delegation in congress in 1312 to investigate his record with a view to impeachment. Nothing came of this demand. On March 1.

this year. Representative Frank Park." of impeached Justice Wright on the floor of the house, basing his impeachment on the chsrges prepared by Wade H. Cooper, a Washington banker. Representative Park' Charges. The charges made by Representative Park included alleged "acceptance of favors from practitioners of his court; acceptance of a fee for legal services while on the bench: changing the record in cases to prevent reversal; bearing deadly weapons in violation of law; revoking, without legal right an order appointing receivers that he might appoint a friend as receiver, and with moral and temperamental unfitness to hold judicial ofii' ei" The resolution for Impeachment was referred to a subcommittee of the house judiciary committee Hearing stopped suddenly, about two monttij ago.
