Four Women Members of Present Leg islature, Three Being Members of the Lower House and One in the Senate. Salt Lake City. The thirteenth session of. the Utah legislature began here on January 13. In spite of the date, the lawmakers assembled insist this will be the most productive session, from the point of work accomplished and benefits to their constituents, of any session of the past. The legislators are not figuring that thirteen is anunlucky number. The session, as provided In the law, will continue for sixty consecutive days, Including Sundays, and will come to an official end at noon on the sixtieth day, unless the solons should find It necessary to stop the clock five minutes before the final hour and continue In session until the body Is able to dispose of such legislation as might be pending. Promptly at noon in the senate chamSecretary of State ber at Harden Bennion called the thirteenth session to order.' There was an Invocation by the chaplain, George Smith of Heber City, who was selected for the place by Ihe Democrat caucus. A certified list of senators was then read, after which came the election of a president of the senate. Senator Joseph W. Funk of Cache was the unanimous choice for that honor by the Democrat senatorial caucus held on January 4. The election of the other officers followed. Those selected by the Caucus follow : Secretary of the senate, Adam L7 Petersen of Weber county; minute clerk, Hugo Anderson of Salt Lake; docket clerk, Lieut. Charles J. Hart of Salt Lake; mailing clerk, Mrs. Annie Me' of Salt Lake county ; sergeant-at-a- i Jed Wilson of Davis county ; char George Smith of Wasatch c There are a number of otherj keepers, watchmen, messenger like who were named by tl counties and two stenograp 'Salt Lake county. The oath of office was adni to President Funk by Chie of the Supreme Court Elmer man, and the upper house of t: islature was declared to be in ru order. In the house a similar procedk took place, Ch&rles C. Richards the caucus nominee, being chosen as speaker of the house. There are four women in the thirteenth legislature. Three are in the house and one in the senate. Legislators who are women are not a new thing In Utah as they are in some of the states. But in Utah they have always stood in the foreground for progress and have consistently worked for laws affecting the welfare of women and children. Mrs. Elizabeth Hayward is the first woman state senator in twenty years. In the house Mrs. Delora Wilkins Bailey, Dr. Grace Stratton Airey and Mrs. Anna Thomas Piercy are the three women who will help make the laws approved at the thirteenth session. The states labor law Is to be the object of concerted attack from Utahs four women legislators this session. Why should the law provide an eight-hou-r r day for men and a day Tor women? is the question they unite in asking. Moreover, they ask, why should women be paid so much less for the same work than men are paid? The thirteenth session will be a Democratic session, the senate being solidly Democratic, while there are nine Republicans in the house. Creation of a department of agriculture is among measures which, it is said, will be introduced. Another project is for a water commission court, with handsome salaries for principal and employe. That there will be changes In the banking laws is certain and a bill has been drawn up modeled after the Oklahoma laws on banking and intended to protect depositors in state banks. A state fire marshal is recommended by the insurance commissioner. The state land board will ask for 5100,000 to reimburse settlers who lost their crops under the Hatchtown project, while $70,000 will be requested for the Piute project. Several state institutions have urged the governor to ask the legislature for an appropriation for buildings. Iq only one instance is there any suggestion for a reduction in taxes, and that Is in the recommendation of the auditor of state.

Then, after a cupful of hot chocolate and a hunk of bread, we watched him set off sturdily for home, eight long miles away. Pierre was always our first visitor, but before the day had ended, there were a score of others. Not far from our canteen, the Smith college unit was doing Its splendid work: The members of it dropped In on us occasionally, but we heard far more of their doings and sayings from the children. The play teacher was a special marvel and we watched with infinite pleasure her successful efforts to teach these small people, who had learned hard lessons in the school of war, the joy of play. The doctor, too, was a source of comfort and amusement to the To hear them talk, you children. would gather, that they preferred to be sick rather than well, in order to get her attention. Some of those under her care, made unheard of Journeys to distant hospitals and dispensaries. After five whole weeks of absence, Andrea, the prettiest, frailest child In the village, returned from Doctor Baldwins little Red Cross hospital at Nesle minus tonsils and adenoids and plus several pounds of soft pink flesh. She had been entirely revolutionized by that institution and startled her mother by demanding to be bathed, bathed every day. When the much harassed woman came to us for bevadvice, I am sure she went away marveling at the madness of Americans who believed In soap and water for B babies, even in the winter time. So from the canteen at Chateau-Thierrour little group of American women were privileged to see war In all its aspects.

So we came to know that we were of use a stimulus to that weary but Indomitable fellow, the poilu; a kind of cross between diversion and oracle to the villagers; and, best of all, a bit of home to our own men. Gee, a young artilleryman said to me one day, youre from home, arent you? But I dont suppose you come from Indiana. For the first time in my life I would have gladly disowned my own state, if only I could have honestly told him that I came from Indiana. From our duties at the marmites, cache or counter, we could look out upon the cross road and the fountain of the little village, two years ago unknown to most of us, now an unforgettable word In American history. For us who have been there, it Is an even more unforgettable memory. Martial Splendor Lacking. During the period of reconstruction, when we were at the village, a motley stream of soldiers passed over the dusty road every day. One man who visited our canteen, excited by the color and variety and gayety of the passing show, likened it to P. T. Bar-nugreatest show on earth.

But of martial splendor, in our old sense of the word, there was not a trace. No music but the grinding of axles under grimly camouflaged field pieces, the creak of dusty wagons piled hard-wor- n com-itou- te march- - ,uericans came, whllSThe T rench poftusrWiftT "queer bundles strung about them at all sorts of unexpected places, seemed fairly to stroll along. But they were going up to the front, these men, and however they might feel about it, it was no circus for us. - Not that the outward appearance of the moving troops was depressing. Far from it. They went by, to quote Ian Hay, scattering homely jests like hall." Some came singing and I shall never forget the first day that American boys came into the village. The Americans are coming, sent us flying out of doors; and les Americans echoed the French about us. Around the bend of the road by the church they came. We could hear them singing before we could distinguish the words and then until my dreams all come true. It was The Long, Long Trail, which brought back to some of us vividly the first summer of the war at home, when we had danced and to the music played and said good-b- y , of that song. Present From Headquarters. One morning I looked out from the canteen upon a new scene, a surprise. Several groups of very feeble old men and women were seated upon the lawn of the chateau. A canteener dashed in breathless at this moment. The old people, according to her hurried account, were a present to us from G. H. Q. They had been living up near the front and some action was planned that might prove dangerous to them. So the French authorities, with charming confidence, Simply shipped them back to the American Red Cross canteen to be sheltered and fed for 24 hours, until they could be sent on by train to their final destination. The day before we had been eaten nearly cut of house and home, by a number of hungry French Infantrymen. Now, as our camion had not arrived, we were looking forward with dread to running short of rations for the afternoon con- tingent Every available canteener was rushed out into the byways and hedges, and in an incredibly short time the villagers had contributed enough from their own poor stores to give the old people a hearty meal.
