Cangressman Higgins, realizing the necessity for a new pension bill which will in a measure provide for soldiers’ children under 16 years of age, has drawn a conditional bill in behalf of women and children representing the yeterans' widows in the period since pensions have been denfed to them. Congressman Higgins has no sym- pathy for the woman who marries a dier because of the pension he re- celves, expecting to recelve perma ent benefit upon reaching wiowhood, but there are & good number of cases where the veteran married after June 87, 1890, where there was no ex- pectation of the wife getting a pension and because she has lived continous- 1y with the soldier and has borne chil- dren to him and contributed to his happiness and comfort these cases deserve ald; and it is to reach these cases that he drafted and Introduced this bill. This bill does not put such & widow in the same class as the other soldlers’ widows, as it gives but $6 a month, and the pension for all widows 15 now $12, provided they married be- fore 1890, The bill reads as follows: €1st Congress, 2d Session. In the House of Representatives. December 10, 1909. Mr. Higgins introduced the following bill; which was referred to the Com- mittee on Invalid Pensions and or- dered to be printed. A BILL Providing for pensions to widows married before January first, nineteen hundred. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the Unit- ed States of America in Congress as- @embled, That if any officer or enlisted man who served ninety dgys or more in the Army or Navy of the United States during the late war of the re- %ellion and who was honorably dis- eharged has died or shall hereafter dle leaving a widow who has continu- ously lived with him from the date of their marriage to the date of his death without other means of support than her daily labor, or minor chil- dren under the age of sixteen years, such widow shall upon due proof of ber husband's death and of her living with him continuously, without prov- ing his death to be the result of his army service, be placed on the pen- slon roll from the date of the appli- catfon therefor under this act at the rate of six dollars per month during her widowhood and shall also be paid two dollars per month for each <hild of such officer or enlistod man under sixteen vears of age, and in case of the death or remarriage of the widow leaving a child or children of such officer or enlisted man under the age of sixteen years such pension shall be paid such child or children under the age of aixtean: Provided, That in case a minor chfid is insane, idiotic, or othierwise permanently helpless, the pension shall continue during the life of said child or during the period of such disability, and such pensions shall commence from the date of ap- plication therefor after the passage of this Act; And provided further, That said widow shall bhave married sald soldier prior to January first, mine- teen hundred, and lived continuously with him from the date of their mar- riage until the date of his death. This is a matter of deep interest to veterans in all parts of the country and the justice of the measure I3 not open to dispute.

A conference is to be held in Bos- ton the 13th of next month of a coni- mittee on education of thie Boston chamber of commerce and the presi- dents of Massachusetts colleges nd universities, Its purpose is to bring the heads of the educational Institu- tions in close touch with the business men of the state and to indicate ths interest which the business men take in the educational institutions. This is the first important confer. ence ever held to make popular edu- cation more practical by Introducing the methods which will develop busi- ness men as well as scholars. It is generally felt that while this beginning at the top is most commendable, it is hoped that the reform will reach lower down, Referring to the importance of this conference the Portland Express sav: “There should be this close under: standing between the business men and the instructors and school officers of every grade far below those of the ges and universities. So it is to be hoped, while begin- ng at the top, and consulting with college and university presidents in the first place, that the educational committee of the Boston chamber of commerce and similar committees of other business men’s organizations in the cities and large towns of New England, will continue the investiga- tion thus worthily begun, and will bring into relations of amity and un- derstanding those who have to do with the education of the youth, who for the most part go from the grammar school and the high school directly into the business world and those who will meet them upon the threshold of busi- ness life, By such means the work of the schools could be made more nearly to meet the needs of business.” RECORD-BREAKING PRICES. Cornfed hogs and steers in the corn belt are fetching. higher prices than ever. On Monday at Kansas City fat hogs reached the highest price in 27 years, commanding $8.40 a hundred pounds, which is $2.40 higher per hun- dred than one year agzo. At St. Jo- seph, the price was 38.45 a hundred. Corn-fattened ~steers are ranging upward with pork, and Kansas City reports a new record price for this product. Two carloads of steers were sold in the stock yards there at $10.50 a hundred pounds, the highest price ever paid in Kansas City, and a dollar higher than any steers have been sold in Chicago this year. Hogs dress off about 25 per cent., and therefore nearly one-quarter of the price on the foot must be added to the dressed pork to arrive at the wholesale price, without regard for salvage through the utilization of the offal. In the case of the $8.45 hogs the dressed pork would cost the whole- saler about 10 1-2 cents a pound. Add- ing the reasonable profit to which all business men are entitled, and putting on top of that the profit of the retai er, based upon the uncertainty of di memberment into the common and se- lect cuts, and the high price of ch hogs when sold on_the block is cle explained. Beef drésses off nearly 40 per cent., because the animal is deprived of hide, head and feet, while the hog is only shaved. Adding this loss to the cost of the dressed animal, and the price of the flesh of the $10.50 steers reaches $14.70 a hundred, or nearly 14 3-4 cents a pound, as It hangs in the cooling room awaiting the coming of the retailer. ‘This_explains why ~the best beef comes high. The demand for the best is far in excess of the supply and familles of means are ready to pay high prices for a choice cut. EDITORIAL NOTES.

A Christmas Warning. The state fire marshal sends out a warning_about the dangers peculiar to the Christmas season which is as sensible as it is timely. He directs attention to several simple but effec- tive precautions agalnst holiday sea- son fires, with their frequent loss of life as well as destruction of prop- erty. Christmas trees often burn because they are decorated with extremely dangerous materials and are then left unguarded, * Occasionally a fire which starts by contact of a lighted éandle with a bit of cotton burns down a house and kills little children. Holiday decorations have been responsible for terrible fires in stores and in churches. Hastily “wired” show windows are dangerous, when the holiday materials and ornaments they contain are close to the electric currents. Gas jets are even more perilo There are many holiday fire risks which might be cut down greatly by easy precautions. One is the use of mineral wool in- plum, blue, geranium red black, with a | ®d 8rea rhinestone center. * Lottie—At the charity fair he gave The © ’s Timber Supply. ?;:l O:r:‘l‘:ln for a kiss.

It can't be burned, but the cotton is extremely dangerous. _Ornaments made of cellu- loid ought not to be used on a Christ- mas tree. They are liable to explode in even a small plaze. Cotton should never be put under a Christmas tree to represent snow. Mineral wool will serve, and it is safe. No strong draft of air ought to be allowed to move the branches of a Christmas tree while it is lighted. All the candles should be extinguished before anything Is taken from the three. In addition to these metbods of pre- vention there are simple precautions which go far in the way of cure if a Christmas tree gets afire. Several pails or basins of water ready in the kitch en, or nearer. may pyt out a fire so quickly that little damage can be done. A heavy rug ought to be ready to wrap around anyone whose clothing takes fire._while the candles are burning and children are playing around the Christ- mas tree. Such preparations for pos: sible accidents may prevent grave con- sequences—even loss of life. These simple means of averting Christmas-tree tragedies or less seri- ous mishaps may well be kept in mind by every one who is respomsible for the care of houses where trees are used or inflammable decorations are employed. In schools and church nd other places where Christmas festivi- ties are on a large scale the.need of precautions is, correspondingly greater than it is in private houses.. There pails of water, or buckets of sand, or fire extinguishers ought to be ready for use, close to a Christmas tree or light and flimsy decorations. ~The exits ought to be well marked and kept cleared, and any Santa Claus costume of quick-burning material should be. dipped in some solution which will make it fireproof. If these hints were generally heeded the list of Christmas season fires would be short and the damage done to property and life would be compar- atively insignificant. The safe path is easily pointed out, but there is dan- nothing. ger that it will not always be follow- ed.—Cleveland Leader. A Fight Ahead.
