LOOSE-LEAF Vs " OLD-STYLE What is the difference? Every hookkeeper knows. One leaf to each account in a Loose-leaf Ledger means greater convenience and greater efficiency. It means tbe substitution of a blank page for one that is filled— a page filed away and a new page inserted, instead of for- warding the account to the rear of the book, with many pages intervening. Loose-Leaf Ledgers —need not be crowded with dead leaves, or absorbed by a few accounts. With a Loose- leaf Ledger each page can be used for a separate account, or, in the case of a great many accounts. the alphabet can be divided and carried in two or more binders. The convenience and effi- ciency of a Loose-leaf Ledger, made to your order or from our stock sizes, deserves your consideration. Consult us for prices and styles.

District officials and civic leaders are waiting anxious- 1y to see if the House appropropria- tions committee will write into the new District bill the §2,000,000 needed to begin work on the new conduit from Great Falls.

Could Not Foresee Needs. “The authorities who built the pres- ent system could not foresee the rapid growth that has taken place in Wash- ington, and they very reasonably sup- posed "that the one conduit would meet all the needs of the city. “Prior to the war Washington's water consumption was running high, but it was still possible for the au- thorities to close the conduit from | time to time to make necessary re-| pairs. “Today, however, daily (‘onsumpllonl has reached a point where it Is no longer possible to close the conduit longer than to make a hurried inspec- | tion of it. And the tunnel which con- veys the water from the Georgetown | reservoir to the filtration plant in !

All of the water now used in Wash- ! ington must pass through the|tunnel from Georgetown to the filtration plant before it is distributed. In or- der to ipepect the interior of the tunnel the water in it must be pumped out at Rock creek. If this was attempted at the present time, it was said today, the reserve supply at the filtration piant would be '} used up before workmen could perform | any maintenance work that might be ! found necessary after the tunnel had been emptied. When the new conduit is built a smaller filtration plant will be erected at the District line near the Dalecarlia reservoir and water for the northwest section will go direct from that filter station to the Brightwood and Reno reservoirs. Thus, the load now carried by the | lan Park filtration plant will be cut in tunnel at any time for inspection and | repairs. i | will not hesitate to make the appropria- If you suffer from headaches caused by eye strain, you should either remove the cause of the strain or be fitted with proper glasses.

WILSON BLAMES SENATE. || SAN FRANCISCO, January 16.— ‘Woodrow Wilson declared in a letter written by him January 3 to John H.| Williams ‘of San_Francisco, and pub- lished in the Bulletin, that failure of the Senate to ratify the treaty of Versailles deprived the United States of the leadership of the world. His letter, in reply to one from Williams saying his work had made possible the Washington co:ldl’erence on limitation of armament, said: ou are right in thinking that the TUnited States was entitled to leader- ship in the league of nations; indeed, the countries associated with us in the war, and the many less powerful gov- ernments which had benefited by the results of the war, had already accorded us leadership; and the pity of the fail- ure_of the Senate to ratify the treaty tions who took part in the framing of the treaty were denied by our act the Justice they 'sought to secure by its terms, but also that the United States was, :li;prtved of the leadership of the world.” ' ROLLS INCREASED ‘The . prospective Incregse in en- rollment in the high schodls at the beginning of \the second semester February 1 will necessitate the ap- pointment of between ‘twelve and fifteen additional sald Plans for the mid-year shifting of teachers, it was today by school authorities. pupils in the school system are now engaging the attention of the officials.
