.~ WOULD UNIONIZE INDIA * By Webb Miller' (United Press Staff. Correspondent) London, Dee. 1.—(By Mail)—A gi-| gantic labor union is being orfanized in India by leaders who frankly state that they will attempt to use the strike weapon to obtain political indepen- dence for India. Ben Spoor, British labor meimber of Parliament, who is going to India in the dual role of emissary of the English Labor party and as a delegate to the India nation- al congress which meets at Nagpor,!

When women make gifts to men they generally select a scarf pin or a gold fountain pen. - “It’s interesting to watch the devel- opment of a young couple’s courtship and marriage,” Barthman said. “A young man wil some in and buy some small present, such as a brooch, cost- ing $15 or $20. A few months later he will make a little more expensive gift. Ther;, n\birthdnys and Christ- masses arrive, of his gifts until finally the engage- ment ring is bought. Next is the wedding ring. After this there is a cessation of three or four years. They are spending all their money furnish- ing a home and making a start.

NEW SAVINGS SECURITIES | TO ARRIVE HERE SOON; Within the next few days the post-' master here expects to receive his new supply of Government Savings securities to be sold during 1921. The new securities include the well known 25 cent green Thrift stamp, a new $1 Savings stamp bearing a/l likeness of Alexander Hamilton, the, first secretary of the treasury; 19211 $56 Savings stamp, larger than the present ones, orange in color are bearing a portrait of Lincoln; a new ! $25 Treasury Savings Certificate as well as the precent $100 and $1,000| Treasury savings certificate. | In calling attention to the fact that the Government has made permanent the sale of Savings securities, David F. Houston, Secrotary of the Treas- ury, emphasizes that endeavorg will} be made to promote the continued ! popular purchase of the government savings securities. In line with this thought, the gov-| ernment seeks to familiarize the pub-| lic with the advantages of the Sav- ings securities as a means of safe and | ccnvenient investment and the sug-! gestion is made by the government savings organization that all who | slow moving wind wheel. windwheel on the end of a bracket which "turns with the mast and is therefore kept in proper relation to the windwheel.

Mr. Opsata has a Rob- bins and Meyers portable quarter- horsepower motor, ,which can be at- tached in a few seconds to the churn, separator, washing machine, grind- stone or any other small piece of ma- chinery. Lights have been conveni- ently placed about the barns, sheds, garage and yard, as well as through- out the house, and light and power is being furnished very cheaply, indeed. A large water tank has been con- structed of concrete in the base of the tower and a well has been dug beneath it. The wind wheel will be connected to this and water supplied to the house and barns through the many feet of piping already in place. | Mr. Opsata is to be congratulated | upon his success in bringing this ad-| ditional improvement to this section.
