Mrs. Mrfy Ellen Lease of Kansas, who for many years spoke of popu lism, spiritualism and other "Isms," and who has been characterized as "the political carrier pigeon of the Sunflower State," Is appearing In a brand-new role.

"Oh, I've toned down in my old age^* she told s reporter after the lec ture, "but I feel as strongly on reform Issues aa I did years ago.
