Ihere are ple of those who re- onded to the registration, not be- ause they wanted to but because they had to, and it is a question whether they could be forced to do any such thing relative to the census, Certain- e would plenty who would have too many other things to do to spend the time to visit a census booth and wait their turn to fill out @ blank. Others of course would for- tet and those who do their best to dodge the census man anyway would find in this plan a most convenient help. Pride and honor might appeal to the big majority but it would be entirely ignored by a considerable number, though if it would work there I# nothing really objectionable to the dea. be CONTROLLER OF THE CURRENCY The renomination of John Skelton Willams by President Wilson for a term of five years as controller of the currency has brought to a focus again the opposition which has from time to tima been manifested against him. This opposition is directed of course against the confirmation of the nomi- nation by the senate, where inasmuch as the democrats are in control it seems improbable that he will not be returned to the office in spite of all that is attempted in an effort to pre- vent it When he was previously named there was no little opposition but the president apparently believes that his ability is such that he.,a,houg{ be. Postoffice at Norwich, Coan.. ss fail to understand that no|, wants to|° retained in the office and there is the experience which he has had in sucl work to back that opinion up, bdut that, nevertheless, does not ofiset the enmities which Mr. Williams has caused as tho resuit of his personal attitude in and his conduct of the of- fice. He has had a stormy poiitical career and that is now bobbing up to cause him trouble. ‘The action against Controller Wil- liams is taking shape in the form of a proposition put forth by Senator Weeks of Massachusetts to the effect that the office of controlier of the cu rency be done away with. This i no means a new suggestion since it was urged at the time the federal re- serve bank law was pa in abolishing the place being to leave the duties of that office in the hands of the federal reserve hoard. The suggestion failed of adoption at that time and it is a question whether it will meet with any better success now, with no change in the control of the senate. THE WAR'S COST. There are various vhat the war has cost the world and it has cost us. Most everyone as in one way or another realized that there is such a thing as war ex- penditure but it is being made plain from time to time that it is entirely too early to tell what the whole cost even to us is. We have already put out stupen- dous sums and it is going to be nec- essary to spend much more but how much no one knows, For the most parta stop has been put to the manufac of such war supplies as rifles, guns, machite guns, ammunition, afrplanes and the like. From (contracts as have been filled an lto be completed it can be told pr close what such things have cost. they are not all the thinzs that the government has spent money for in the prosecution of the war We must complete demobilization, there is the guarantee which the gov- ernment has made to the wheat grow- ers to take all they canraisaat a d price up to a certain time on which it is figured the government will lose 2 billlon and a | steamships which | war prices on which t made that a billion dollarg be written off that it may be possible to operate the ships on a paying basis, there are millions of dollars worth of other kinds of material which have heen amassed for work across the water of different kinds under the expectation that the var would continue lon 5 and the suggestion is ! estimates as to t milt o suggestion is that such material, i uantities of building s piaced on the market for bidder to take in order to make possible for greater activity in con- struction work. The argument is that the government b t material, has no use for it and therefore should dis- pose of it ever at a sacr It is thus quite evident know there going known fice that but it as been a war scme tima it has cost is to i what bhe before it us, THE SEATTLE TROUBLE.

It looks as if it was going to be a struggle to get down the raised price of yeast cakes. It looks as if the government forces were tying the cans more firmly than ever to the Spartacans in Germany. The attitude of those bolshevik leaders out in Seattle appears to be rule or ruin, and the place for them is right back where they came from. The man on the corner says: Just because one happens to be a strapping fellow doesn’t justify the assumption that he is a harness maker or a school teacher, There is no guestion but what it will be found that Connecticut troops yed a valiant and import in the great struggle when th story {s told, It is preposterous to think of Tur- key having. done so much fighting that it would want peace. Turkey is never satisfied unless engaged in slaughter- ing the innocent. It must make the cotton raisers mad to think that they didn't favor the fixing of the price on cotton so as to get the benefit of the guaranteed price for some time to come. Rhode Island may not admit it but it looks very much as if its senate had been guided by the action of the Con- necticut upper house in regard to the prohibition amendment. A reminder has been put out by the treasury department that the govern- ment is depending upon the sales of war savings stamps to meet its ex- penses. The war bill must certainly be paid. Inasmuch as the interstate com- merce commission has ruled that rail- roads must pay for eggs broken in transit, it will probably mean more consideration for all cars from the A switching crews, SUGGLSTIONS FOR THE HOUSEWIFE e fish may be known by ack of brightness in the eves. I'resh fish have clear eyes, red gills, stiff fins, and the scales are shining. Never use a metal teapot for making tea. When breast meat is tender, chicken is sufficiently cooked. Hot m!F: taken before retiring will often produce sleep, Hot vinegar will remove the paint stains from glass. A very simple, wholesome dessert is boiled rice and stewed figs or prunes served together, with cream. Cakes without butter require a quick oven; with butter, a moderate oven. Very delicious sandwiches are made with diced pimento and soft whits bread cut very thin, Strong ammonia water is excellent for removing iodine marks from the skin, Two brushes and combs should be kept on every dressing table, so that a fresh one m3ay be used every day. To insure a light, crisp, flaky crust, use nothing but the best tutter and good, fine flour, All large fruits should be thrown in- tn water as soon as pared, to prevent discoloration. START IN TIME, Making the best of one's self is a duty each girl owes to herself and there is no better place to begin than with the first moment one puts the tight foot out of bed in the morning. One girl in particular, comes to mind who never had time to 1o anything; everything, from her hurried, serabe bled dressing to the last thing at night, was so poorly done that it had con- stantly to be done over agai: matter of fact she would have nty of time for everything if she had not constantly been in such a state cf mental confusion that she fre- quently neglected the most important thing, and a consequence had to go out of her way to uatangle the mess in which she was constantly finding herself. From broken shoe laces in the morning because there W no time to buy new ones the iight before, to delaved dinner en- gements in the evening with pre. cious minutes spent in telephone vocths try to straighten out af- fairs, her days were one ceaseless 'mu‘nd of petty annoyances of her own making. Not alone Is this type of person an noying to herself, but to every ons who is unfortunate enough to be obliged to have anything to do with her. The one mitigating thing ut her 18 that she is usually s bout her own fiairs has time to interfere with and even het untidy ly a others, appearance at breakfast usual- none, for all the r are apt hed and out of the room.

TO SLICE MUSH, When allowing cornmeal mush to| “set” to be fried afterward, pour into a large size 1 ng powder can or twa cans, if need be. When ready to use, the cornmeal will be easily removed and cut in nice round slices. DICTATES OF FASHION. Even the latest bathire suit claims the soft rolliaz cowl collar (o outline its neck. Sashes and flower girdles uve an im- portant feature on the simpler evening gowns, Navy blue taffeta and white organ- die unexpectdly combine in a cham- ing sun bat. Many of the suit skirts are slightly barrel in effect, and §asten at one side of the front. Overblouses in colored chiffons are being noted. Tucks and gathers are secn to take the place of smocking on the new tunics that call themselves “smoclk.” Flowered cretonne makes a wais:- coat thar would be a swnning addi- tion to any suit.

CONCERNING WOMEN Two states, by act of their legisla- tures, Arkansas and 'Texas, have granted women the right to vote in the primaries.
