CIRCULATION WEEK ENDING DEC. 4th, 1920 11,060 ° THE SIXTY-SIXTH CONGRESS. The short and concluding sessien of the sixty-sixth congress, and the last under the present administration, will open to- day. It is alwaye a session where much time is devoted to the apprepriation bills nd in view of the importance of such bills and the time which congress really vets during the next three months for business it is not surprising if it nas yme to be realized that little more ‘haa v legislation can be anticipated. Appropriation bills are impertant and particularly €0 at this time when every effort can be expected to be made in be- half of economy and efficiency. By just s0 much as these bills can be kept down nd the policy of retrenchment put in‘o effect, by just that much will it be pos- sible to curtail on the amount of meney be raised by taxation, and taxation is matter which is bound to eome in for serious consideration in the months to come. There is the important matter of plac- the government on a budget system which was prevented before adjournment epring by the president's vete. It = legizlation that needs to be completed and is indicated that action will be demanding legislation dealing mmigration problem, while the of reorganizing administrative work and dealing with other matters be- fore the country will get such attention as time will permit. There has been rothing to Indicate what the president's attitude is going to be relative to the treaty and the league of nations, but in view of the verdiet of the people it seems most unlikely that will undertake to resubmit them for ratification. There will be plenty of oth or including that which was from the previous session, to keep congress husy without being obliged to deal with that. That special empha- & will be put upen the apprepriation bills is to be expected, and even though this i= not the congress reeently elected t cannot fafl to appreeiate what the peo- ple have indieated that they want. the matter business, held over CHRISTMAS CLUBS, For more than a decade there has been existence in this country a plan for neouraging the people to save with the ew te having a sufficient amount on when the Christmas season comes to meet their requirements. The idea is to save over a period of twelve menths a little, at a time but regularly, so that this time of the year there will be aavilable frem such thrift all and prob- ably than will be needed to b1y Christmas gifts, and through sueh sys-! trmatic saving thera will not be fel: the drain on the pocketbeok or th: werry ‘n trying to figure out where the money s going to come from. It nteresting to note {hat there are more than 3,000 banks which have taen conducting Christmas clubs year and as the result will be dis:ributsd to #omathing ‘like three million people ap- $110.000,000 within a few. s money that belongs to them which they have put aside each in varying sums to be k!v!! for them by the banks until this time of the year. They have known what they ¢ould depend upon and they have been able to devote théir attention to planning for the holiday season in other ways than! digging up all of a sudden a sufficient amount to make ends meet. While the idea revolves around Christ- buying there is nevertheless a valua- oived in saving. Those whe Wwhat is to be gained through € part of their earnings instead of spending them all as fast as received are kely to be impressed to such an extent that future savings wil! be fer other than Christmas purpoges. For those who were not trained to store up for a rainy day, those who can- not save without putting their monmey in- to the hands of others and those whe do not realize the necessity and benefit of such self protection the idea is a eapital one. With three million people already interested it shows'how strong an appeal the plan has made throughout the coun- try. " and more proximately 1t money week avs but CHANGING THE COVENANT. By the introduction of a resolution in the meeting of the league of nation's as- sembly calling for the elimination of ar- ticle ten it becomes evident that this much. discussed feature of the league has been talked about elsewhere, that the debate in this country caused others to do some thinking abent it and that mere than passing attentien has besr given te the result of the solemn referendum om Nover:ver second Article ten, wa have been told, is the heart of the league. From the manner In which it has been referred to and: the vlan by which it is proposed to deal with t in the Gereva gafhering sueh would not appear to be the view held by the other nations, although aetion éh the eliminztion has not as yet been taken. Nevertheless the presentation of t resolution was preceded by the statement from Gené®a to the effect that it weuld oceasion no surprise if 7mek 2 remaval took place, at the prament sitilay One of the subcommittees 154 sliaudy de. clared that the meanng of the wrtinle isn't clean, that it reans ssmetring ait- ferent than what it is fieuded to and that it dees not gusraptue ihe tersitorial Integriy of any mersbar of the league. Such a view eun hart'y Ba serepted view of tha actual we.ding ot the arti- sle which savs “Ihe nembers of the eague undertake to respect and praserve inst external aggressien the terri- integrity and existing politieal in- dspendence of all members of the league” The covenant doesn't comtain the word *“ itee” Dbut when “th rs undertake to respect and pre: serve” they assume an obligation which amounts to the same thing. The indications are that these paints will all be threshed out before actien is taken on *he reseiution but from the step that hmg peen taken it seems evident that there is recognitien of the importance of getting away from the “conditions im- posed by this artiele. _ AFTER BAP CONBITIONS. ‘When the American Legion is queted as declaring that it plans action fer the purpese of compelling the branches of tha goverament which have to do Wwith the discharged and disabled soldiers to live up to their responsibilities it is the cu!l mination ef a long list of troubles that have been experienced by these whe were in the service of their country during tne recent war. There has been a pericd of toleratian but in view of eenditigns per- sisting two years after the armistiee was declared there can be little syrnrise that the orgenization representing the men feel it necessary te follow different tae: ties. Mnci surprise has been expressed sver the fact that those who were in th® ser- vice did not continue their geverpment insuranee. It is recogmized as heing at the lowest possible figure and obtainable on much better terms than can ba se- cured elsewhere, For that reason strong, efforts have been made te persuade these who have it to hold onto it, and theee who had it but dropped it to take if up again. To these latter special induce- ments, such ag-eould mot be sxpected elsewhere, were made. A considerable nyumber did retain their insurance and there were these who were convinced of the advisability of being reinstate:l, it was the experience through they went while in the service and after leaving it that caused so many to give it up and desiare they would have noth- ing more to do with it. Even though they recognized the low rate, they pre- ferred to pay a higher premium and have the details attended to in a businesslike manner rather than eontinue their ex- perience with the goveinment burtaus which kept them in a state of uneertain- ty. In other words-the low rate did met raake up for the incenvenience and bether t were entailed by the inefficient gov- ernment pureaus. It is quite natural therefore that the Amerjean Legion sheuld feel it necessary to start am aetive eampaign against such conditions. It ig advisable for the in- terests of its members and it should re- sult in betterments that are apparently greatiy needed to bring about proper government service. —_— OUR ATTITUD As he szets out on hig trip to Seuth Ameriea to return in behalf of this gov- ernment the visits of the heads of Seuth American republics Seeretary Celby goes as the represeataiive of President Wils son. He goes at a peried: when the pres- ent, administration is nearing ity close and when the peeple of the United States have declared for different pelicies than the administration he represents. Perhaps it is unjust to attempt to an- ticipate what he is geing to say te the people of South Ameriea as he visits Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay. ~That he will pregent this country as standing and working for the best interests of all the Americas is not to be doubted. Speaking in general terms he can point to the United States as urging the best possi- ble understanding between the countries of North and South America in the ip- terests of friendship, security and d velopment. Hae ean set forth what the aim of the present administration 'has been but naturally the Seuth Americans are not geing to be as much cencerned with something whieh Is abeut to end as they will be with what is going ta take its place. The new administration is ~ probably what Seouth American countries are giv-, ing mueh attemtion .to at the pressat time, and Seerstary Colby does not and cannot represent that. Being the spokes- man for President Harding though there are many respects in which they will be the same. South Ameriea will of course make the most ef such a visitatien and it is for. the secretary of state to do his utmost to impress upon the countries visited the importance of harmenieus relationship, and the fact that we harbor only a spirit’ of friendship and good will toward them.

Sweet potatoes will keep for wi if put lnv.? a strong paper bag a placed in the refrigerator. Baste a roasting ham with a few tablespoonfuls of grape juice. This gives it a delicious flaver. Small fruits which are net whole or firm enough to use for preserves should be made inte jams. A cheap shaying brush is excellent for dusting heayily trimmed hats. Sew together .the legs of “wornout steckings and use to polish stoves. Het weather is the time to be espe- cially eareful of tinned feedstuffs, Brojled green peppers make a deli- ‘elpug finishing teuch to a steak. Cut floewers last longer if set in a pail of water up to their necks over- night. 5 A six pound electrie iron is best fer lnun;!'}' work as it holds heat longer, Keep a butten bag near the electric ‘wflauher for any buttons that are wrung loft.

Rub the yolk of one hard boiled egz to a paste with a tablespoonful of olive oil or melted butter. Add, in the order given, one teaspoonful of salt, one of made mustard, one of granulated su- gar and mix one-fourth a teaspoonful of cayenne. Mix this with two cups of grated cheese, and one cup of chopped chicken. Press into scallop shells, and bake until cheese is melted. THE DRAIN PIPE. Oecasionally more than cold, or even hot, water is necessary to clear out the accumulatell grease, lint, miscel- laneous dirt and bits of refuse in a drain pipe. Washing soda is ordinari- ly strong enough for bathroom pipes, and may be used in the proportion of one part “liquid” soda (made by boil- ing one pound of washing soda and one quart, of water in an old kettle) to 12 parts hot water, or one pound of dry Soda thoroughly\{issolved in three gal- lens of boiling water. THE MANTEL SHELF, A simple strip of colored material the width or a little less than the width of the mantel shelf laid along it may serve to enhance the effect of good china standing upen it, while at the same time adding a pleasing note of centrast to the white or palely tinted paint of a wooden mantel shelf. A strip of black velvet looks well or ene of the principal colors in the room may be repeated here, always provid- ed, of course, that it"harmonizes with the ornaments or china upon it. HEALTH AND BEAUTY. ‘White hair requires more care than dark hair, but the results will justi- fy any amount of effort. Most of the care ig in the shampooing. If the hair is eily, a soapless shampeo can be giv- en by rubbing t}*eascalp and hair with half alcohol and Malf-water. This mix- ture is eleansing and ehould be follow- ed by several rinsings in hot and cold water. A few minutes a day, not more than two or three at the most, will keep the nails quite perfect a will make a vhorough' manigure nedessary only once in-a while. e best plan to fol- low is to reshape the ends of the nails every day, or every other day, with a strip of pumice board, The light fil- ing will give\the nails a new edge, and will keep them from growing too long. A cleansing cream whieh is most ef- fective is made as follows: White wax, 1 oz.; spermaceti, 1 oz; white mineral oil, 5 ozs.; rese water, 1 1-2 ozs.:. powdered borax, 30 grains; oil of bitter almonds, 15 drops. The wax. spermaceti and both ofls are heated until they blend; the rase water con- taining the barax is also warmed, and the two are mixed. They are beaten until they begin to cool, then poured off into jars. A certain amount of exercise is ab- solutely essentiak Such exercise should be taken preferably eut of doors and if possible in a light cos- tume o the pores of the body have a ehance to breathe. Strenuous exercise should always be followed by a hot bath and a quick cold rinse or shower. For the- exercise makes the skin act- ive, the pores begin to throw off the waste matter always accumulating i gide the body, and the sooner this is gotten rid of the better. COLORS. Blonde should wear pale yellows, light blues and grays, Brunettes should wear the brilliant colors of the inhabitants of the jungle like deep yellow, purples, reds and hrowns. Auburn girls should make their hair the kevnote of théir costume and should not let any striking colors clash with it. They. should wear dark hrowns, light tans and yellows. FOR THE BATHROOM. If the nickel towel bars are old and dattered, replace thetn with glass bars in porceloid brackets.” And replace the old soap and sponge racks, toothbrush and tumbler holders with bright, new fittings. On the glass ehelf over the ‘wash basin have talcum and other toilet articles for the guest and a new cake of soap in'a special guest soap disi!’ And no housekeeper meeds to be told that the distinction of her bath- room depends on its linens; the soft damask towels of good size and the hig, 2bsorbent bath towels, with fresh- ly tolded wash cloths of crocheted cot- ton with colered border and initial. DICTATES OF FASHION. Margot and Bohemian laces are ri- valing Chantilly. Corsage bouquets of natural flowers are worn. Gray footwear continues in vogue, even with dark dresses. Pointed fox animal scarfs are con- sideréd smart. This fur and silver fox are chosen more often than any other for the amimal scarf. Ming’ green is one of the newer greens in favor, and green continues to be a leader on the modish card. The upturned brim of a black vel- | vet hat is of black lace, banded with jade green ribbon. Long straight tunies and panelings are results of the strong Chinese influ- ence on dress. In place of fur or tulle English wo- men are using moire ribbon as a neck ‘wrap. Arnate gloves are favored by Paris. Fur trimmed dresses and fur trim- med blouses are much in evidence. The Fgyptian note persists as a strong influence. Short evening dresses frequently have panel trains at the side. is nothing tc prevent them from -drink- ing liguor Wwhich they have -in their homes for that purpese, and from: what the bureau is doing there is only |the feeblest effort beirg made to prevent the open sale of intoxieating liquers. It is therafore ridiculoas te held that it ean net be nsed in plum pudding.

The introductien of beads on tais fabric is a feature of the season. e e RIBBON AND LACE. A dainty and inmemiva gift any woman would appreeiate are boudeir garters, for there are inconveniences in going without one’s eorsets when in negligee that rather outweigh the com- fort unless ene has a pair of garters to elip over er under one's knees, Four yards of ribbon and three-quar- | ters of a yard of elastic with a few || hours’ time do not total a formidable | sum and if the gift seems ina.\'lqulta] one might include a boudoir cap to mateh to say nothing of mules or sli] pers. Lace-adds softness, very pretty eaps being entirely of lace with cas- cades or rosettes of two-faced ribbon at hack, sides or side. Picot-edged ribbon is effective for this purpose and if it is used the garters and mules| should of course be also of picot. Mar- | Zot lace is new and attractive for| boudoir use and just at the moment is in high faver for negligees. For camisole shoulder straps picot ribbon ig charming; the tep of the camisole may be finished with a narrow picot- edged ribben sewn on the under side €0 that a narrow line of the contrast- | ing colbr and the picot serve as a fi- nish. Pink and blue, blue and laven- der, pink and yellow and pink and lavender are a few of the lovely pastel shades to be had. Rather more dif- ficult to make hut distinctively worth while are the purses and bags made of rich broeade or moire ribbon, these| mounted on frames as simple or ele- gant as desired. NEEDLEWORK NOTES. Remove the upper part of torn cot- ton or flannel nightgowns, measure length required, gather in at the waist, make a belt from part of sleeve and you have a good serviceable under, skirt. 1 Lingerie bands for helding camisoles, skirts and nightgowns make an un- usual gift.

There is plenty of material in the shirt to make a pair of rempers for a child from one to three years old. FOR FABRICS LIKELY TO FADE ‘When the action of soap is likely to injure a delieate color, use soapbark, starch water, or bran water. Soap. bark, althoygh not a seap, when heat ed in water will form suds. To pre- rare it for use, boil for 10 minutes a cup of the bark with 1 quart of water; taen cool and strain the liquid. The “soapy” water may be used full sirength for sponging, or diuuted for vrashing; half of this amount is enough for one-half tubful of water. Sinece the liquid is brownish, it should e lsed only on dark-colored goods. Stareh water is especially good for ] tleaning delicate cotton fabrics. This Is usually made by adding thin starch paste to the wash watér. Water in which rice has been boiled, if it is not | discolored, may be used instead. If-it is not desirable to have the material starched slightly, it must be rinsed in salt water. Bran water, made in the same way as soaphark solution, is useful with colors that are likely to fade. It does not give suds, but cleans like starch water. Give N. S. founder of the Morm.cn states. There must have Leen something execp- tional in the man, for Smith was known in the little New York village of Man- chester ,where he resided, as ar idle, in- temperate and illiterate person, yet when he told his wenderful story of divine revelations and the discovery of a new religion he found many willing dupes. According to Smith’s own aecount of himself, his mind was at a very early age exarcised religiously. and that on the evening of Sept. 21, 1823, when ha was but 18 years old, the angel Moroni ap- peared before him as a messeager from the Lord, imstructirg him .n the secret purposes of the Most High, and an- nouncing the divine will to be that he, Smith, should become a spiritual leader and commander of the nations of the earth. He claimed he was also told that there was a bundle of golden or metallic plated\ deposited in a hill in Manchester which contained some lost Biblical records, and with which Were two transparent stones, set in the rim of a bow of silver, which were anciently knewn as the Urim and Thummim, and that by loeking through these stones he could see the strange characters on the plates transiated into English. These plates were about eight inches long by seven wide, and a little thinner than ordinary tin, and were bound te- gether by three rings running through the who From these plates, with hiero- glypliies in a Janguage calied the Re- formed Lgyptian, Smith, sitting behind a blanket hung across the room to keep the sacred records from profane eyes, read off, through the transparent stones, the “Book of Mormon” to Oliver Cowdery, who wrote it down as Smith repeated it "Phis volume of several hundred pages was printed in 1830. Appended to it was a statement signed by Oliver Cowdery, David Whitmer and Martin Harms, whe had become professed believers in Smith's supernatural pretensions, and are eai by the Mormons the “three witnesses. after years, however, these witnesses quarrelled with Smith, remounced Mor- monism and avowed the falsity of thelr testimony. As to the tramscript on the paper, one of the solden plates having been submit- ted to Prof. Charles Anthon of New York for his inspection, that eminent echolar zave as his opinion that the paper was a PRACTICAL APRON. An attractive and practical apron is made of cretonne. It is composed of a straight piece, the bottom of which is turned up and furnishes generous pockets. The top is shirred together and a ribbon belt to match finishes off the apron. CONCERNING WOMEN. The late Queen Victoria was a clev- er designer of Christmas cards.
