When there are 80 many reasons for Jeeiving for and preteeting good health ¥ ought to require me such effort as a Joecial week for aroustng the interest Bf the people relative to the many prob- Jems thai are mvolved reaching such a poal. Newertheless it 15 a well known Fact that health is ome thing about Jehich some people are the most care- and they seidom appreciate it until health has given place to bed a keener Tegard for the Bblessing of good health. Ihe special campaign which Is now be- ing eonducted throughout the country. Good bealth is important to the indi- Nidual but 1t is also highly valmble to pssmmunity, state and nation., What a t a fam a sfate or @ sick Stats te, plenty of ways in which Mhe tadlvidnal can eontributs to better beatth, all a matter of belng| property efueated against harmful con- B¥ions and beine Impressed with the Malye of precautionary steps before be- Jog Seeught to that same point through axpartence. Theve are plenty of fn- mtanees which go ‘e show that too many Indivifioals are wnwitling to profit from the lesson of others, that they regard Waraings and advies as fads and fan ‘eles @nd fail to give proper constdera- their own welfare, and it is only t and extraordinary efforts he regular and eelt ap- ns that some people can be though their own health = in the balance.

These who go into the woods to hunt #ind themselves in peril quite the same Ba these whe go down to the sea in ships, but the das seldom arises from the game but from their friends o geflowmen who are engaged in a wimllgr miesion, Being mistaken for gume of any kind 5 by no means a Joke. Alln this on two lives Bave been taken in Maine and one hua- ter Mms been sorionsly wounded In Masmcha: - It 5 not a gituation se diffapent from other years in this re- fosot but it doesm’t indicate that amy krester degroe of care is beimg exer- eised this year because of those who Bave been killed in the past. Those who set forth to hunt, whether n palrs or in groups ! @isregard the fact that otherw are likely to be in the woods. Be- teuse a twiz maps or a bush sways Boes met mean that big game is at hand. And soch does not warrant shouldering the gun and blazing away in the direc- Hon af ths sound or moving branch. 1t is altogether too frequent that hunters are seriomsly wounded or Killed vutright throogh the eagerness of a tompanion to get his quota of game in- wtead of taking the Decessary time to be sure that the game is actually there Rnd that what s aimed at is 2 deer and hot & man. For that reason, the hun- Rer who goes into the woods arrayed in % ooat of many colors is adopting an bnpartant safoty measare while those Whe wait befors they shoot umtil they hre cetain of what they are shooting At will avoid deploesble results. It iu far preferable to lose & shot in pehalt of safety tham it is to take a phnce and find out ¢hat it is & Ymwan beingthat bas been used 5o Aarget to the it. He 000 meres of ‘timber. So greal has been the per that the olaim has been the supply of pulp making timber be exhausted within & quarter century unless greater efforts ‘were made m behalf of reforestation, Tt was stmply setting forth the fact rhat un. less provisions were made for a future supply the present rate of eonsumption would soon wipe out what i now avall- able, ‘The waste that has occmrred in eon- nection with paper has been enormous. It stil contthues on & imege scale ut thers are ways In whigh the fibre In the paper oan be employed again and again and certainly when every six tons of sach paper medns the saving of an acre of trees, !t % easily realived what, a factor such wse of waste paper can be in mesting present day requirements. It is in fact one of the many ways In which Waste can be overcome, THE FISHERMEN'S RACE. Whenever there is a test of ability or speed it is common practice that it be governed by rules and conducted und the direction of judges. That has been| the case with the international contest between fishing echooners in past years, that is what is done at horse races and In connection with other sports. It was in fact just what was done when the Mayflower was Tuled out as a contest- ant for the trophy. Compliance with rules is to be expect- ed, and it is for that reason that wur- prise cannot fail o be manifested when it i3 inttmated that the international championship contest may be dropped because the judges have declared that the race that was sailed will not count inasmuch as the contestants made false startg and therefore failed to comoly with the rules and the order of the Judges. 1t seems to be a case where the cap- taing of the respective vessels ars at ofds with the judges. They started -against orders, continued the race and finished with the Henry Ford two miles 10 the good, in which both captains are pratisfied that there was no unfair ad- vantage, and where the captain of the Bluenose insists that the race should 20 to his adversary. That gives a good idea of the relative merits of the two schooners, and if the contest can be judged from the first race thers doesn't appear to be much chance for the Canadian boat. How- ever, when it is disclosed that there is a refusal to abide by the starting orders of the judges and a dlsposition to throw up the contest rather than abide by the decision on the race it reveals a situa- tion which ought not to exist. Bven though it is a case where the race was fairly won it remains to be seen wheth- er rules and judges are going to amount to anything or not. WHERE THE TROUBLE LIES. When Chairman Lasker of the ship- ping board declares that the ruling of the attorney general regarding liquor on ships was the greatest blow received by the American merchant marine, he can hardly harbor the idea that the at- torney general was desirous of hitting the merchant marine between the eyes, whatever the result may be. In putting forth his decision the at- torney general is guided by the law, and by the decisions of the supreme court, for meither of which is he re- eponsible, It'would be a strange Ssituas tion if the head of the department of justice was to warp his rulings because he recognized the fact that a ruling based on the law was goimg to handi- <ap the merchant marine. It is not the¢ attorney general's fault that the law ex- ists or that the merchant marine is 30 dependent upon wet goods other tham water. He is not dealing with the sit- uation in a personal manmer. It is not for him to say whether he would make the vessels dry, half dry or extra wet. When he has rendered his decision in keeping with the laws that exist he has done only his duty, and done it in that courageous way that any public servant is_expected to do it. ‘Well might he be subjected to the se- verest criticiem, were it a fact that he was undertaking to be guided by other than the law. It is probable that Chair- man Lasker is not blaming the attor- ney gemeral but the law which he has interpreted. That seems more plausible and in keeping with the opposition which has been manifested toward pro- hibition and the Volstead act since they became effected. FDITORTAL NOTES.

THE HOUSEWIFE with tion of common salt and water terward washing with ammonia. To remove tar from rugs, place im a strong sumlight near & hot fire. In a few minates the greater portion of the tar can be removed with a knife. then rub the spot with gasoline. Save the paraffin you take frem the tops of jam and Jelly jars. Then, when- ever you make a fire, throw in a few pieces. The paraffin will make a wan- derful blaze, Preserves and canned goods should al- ‘ways be shielded from the light. An old ‘window shade will answer. It should be hung exactly as it would be at the win- dow, and when drawm will effectively darken the shelf. —_— MICE ! If you are troubled by mice in your house, mousetraps alome will not save you. They are only a cure, and a partial one at that, for you connot expect more than one victim per trap each night! You must seek the cause, not the cure. If you leave nothing about to tempt the mive, your troubles should cease. Sweep up all crumbs from the kitchen floor each night before you go to bed, and make sure there is not a particle of food left out anywhere. Keep all ce- reals, ete, inside your cupboards tight- ly shut up i tins or jars. Pay especial care to your sink-basket to ensure its cleanliness, and do not forget the dust- bin. Mice hate the smell of napthaline and a few carbon balls—to be purchased very cheaply from any chemist—may be plac- ed in little musiin bags and put in cor- ners of rooms where trouble is suspeet- ed. The house-mouse, as he is known, i a very great nuisance. He started life in Central Asia and has spread over the whole of the civilized world. k ABOUT THE HOUSE If the stuffing in the seat of a chair has grown rather thin, purchase some new bhair from the local upholsterer’s shop, and after gently undoing the tap- estry or leather cover, insert it under- neath, taking care to distribute it quite evenly. HEALTH AND BEAUTY It the eyes are tired, give them an eye bath before going to sleep, and re- member to do the same in the morning. If the skin shows any sign of having clogged pores, indulge in five minates’ steam bath before going to bed, so that the skin may breathe freely during the night. It is well to give some definite at- tention to the eyes. Rest them occasional- ly from the light, if only by placing the fingertips gently over the balls of the eyes and completely relaxing for a few minutes, Keep medicines, glasses and spoons out of the patient’s sight, and do not whisper in the room; it makes the sick person uneasy and suspicious. Keep ths room as clean, cheerful and pleasant as possible, Flowers are not generally injurious. If the nails are badly stained cut a lemon in half and rub the juiee thor- oughly into the fingertips and in un- der the nails. Then wash off the juice and rub a little cream or vaseline into the cuticle of the nail, so the lemon juice will mot try and harden this deli- eats skin. But if there are no deeided stains such as those which come from fruit, vegetables or ink, use the lemon juice diluted. The handlest way is to have a small bottle of half lemon juict and half water always ready in the bathroom cupboard. SLEEPING PORCHES Sleeping porches should be built on the second floor of the house. Such a location insures greater privacy and les- sons possible annoyance frpm insects and ‘odors. The sleeping porch should be open on three sides, but screened in summer with rust-proof screens and provided with dou- ble windows for winter. The floor should be treated to avoid leakage of rain be- low. Stone cement, wood, tile and brick have all been used successtully as floor- ing canvas and linoleum are good floor coverings, as they are practically water- proof and easily kept clean. The floor should slant to one edge to drain, and it directly exposed to the rain, extra wooden siats above the floor will expe- dite drying. An ordinary cot-bed is the most prac- tical stationary bed for a sleeping-poreh. A water-proof spread should be part of the equipment, as should alss the m- valzable sieeping bag for eold weather. LENGTH OF COATS Little change has taken place in the general line of street clothes offered in the winter collections. The tailleurs are found with jackets of all lengths—short, hip-length, three-quarter, and long; here and there is a real bolero length, bare- ly reaching the waist and falling straight from the shoulders. The length which Just reaches the hip is perhaps the most gemeral, but it has lost the bloused char- acter it possessed last vear, and in most cases has given up its narrow beit. There is an automcbile now to every ten persons in the country, and on a de- lightful week-énd you are probably rre- pared to maintain that about everyore has one, Another British economist is coming here to speak on debts.

Remarkably beautiful and extremely smart is an evening cape of powder blue velvet collared- with chinchilla and ed with rose color satin. The vogue for white fur, especially ermine is evidenced in touches on mil- linery, edgings on frocks and even short ermine jacquettes. A three-piece costume entirely of suede in one of the mew brown shades was noted on Fifty avenue, during the tea hour. The costume was severely tailored, relying on the fabric for its Tich effect. Duvetyn appliqued in geométric de- sign makes a smark one-piece frock. An early fall tailieur of brown with black echeck had its smart short jac- with flating sleeves, trimmed with WOMAN IN LIFE AND IN THE KITCHEN gauntlet cuffs of white shirred faille silk is attractive. Sports topeoats of novelty woolen fab- Tios, some in bright plaids and topped with heavy collars of light-colored fur, are much in evidence at outdoor events. A navy Poiret twill frock is trimmed with white flannel, the collar and lap- els on a V neck and narrow bands that tie on the wrist. The white is piped on the edges and also has stripes of French blue and light canna color. GIRLS' KNTTTED FROCKS Knitted fabrics promise to be exceed- ingly good for little girls autumn and winter frocks. some of them show decided noveity in weave, and unusual color blendings. Naturally, for children's wear, some. firmness of weave is neces- sary, and this need is met in a variety of new materials that have all the soft- ness that could be desired, in combina- tion with a certain sturdiness of tex- ture, Many frocks developed in such ma- terials are very simply trimmed with Wool embroidery and wool cord ; for the materials as often as not show some nov- elty of weave, or a stripe, or even a silk embroidered dot in contrasting eol- or; Wo a great deal of trimming is neither appropriate nor necessary. COLOBS ARE DISCEEET Colors are discreet for street wear. Black has not been abandoned, for some designers are still using a great deal of it, while others compromise by combin- ing it with eolor, mora often brown or gray than the bright shades, The browns in the whole range from deepest seal to putty, are in the lead. There are greens in almost all collections, from fanctes clear forest green for her Russian tail- leurs. There are good many grays, more often smoke shades than the pale tones. Many gowns have rich reds in trim- ming notes, and the rust and mahogany reds are strong. Doucet has given up his favorite combination of gray and yellow for a new one of emoked gray and mahogany. All this apphies to day- time wear. In the evening we have a ri- ot of bright shades, with a great deal of white. and more silver than gold. Here and there is a note of rich pur- ple. Royal blue is used by some, fre- quently combined with black. LAUNDRY HINTS It is said if you run articles that have come out of hot starch through the. wringer it will injure the rubber rolls. 1f silk stockings are washed after each time they are worn they last longer. It is the perspiration that causes the formation of holes, and rinsing them out eliminates that source of trouble before it has a chance to get in its work. When you have a pair of silk stock- ings with clocks of a different color and you wash them you sometimes find that the clocks look slightly streaked. To avoid this trouble, be very eareful to see that the water, is just lukewarm, never hot, and also wash out every trace of the soap. It is a Wwise precau- tion too, to put a little salt into the water to keep the colors fast. To wash handkerchiefs so that they do not discolor. put them in a tub of cold water to which a handful of salt has been added. The next day wash them out and boil them with one tablespoon of salt and one teaspoon of orris root. Rinse in cold water and hang out to dry. TO REMOVE STAINS Remove tea and coffee stains with boll ing water, Remove miTk and cream with cold wa- ter. Remove scorch with sunlight. Remove grass stains with ammonia and water. Remove ink stains with sour milk, Jem- on juice, or sats of lemon. Ink from white goods, soak half an hour in vine- gar, wash, soak in solution of chloride of lime, wash. To remove iron rust, moisten with am- monia, then use salts of lemon, rinse in boiling water. Medicine stains may often be remov- ed by soaking in alcohol. Remove tar with kerosene, then warm water and =oap. Remove whitewash with strong vine- gar. NOVEL TRAY CLOTHS The very latest idea in dressing table mats and tray and sideboard cloths is to combine plain linen with figured lin- en, blending the two together with fag- got stitching. The patterned linen may either be inset into the plain, so form- ing charming centres, or may be used merely as a border, with a simple design embroidered in the centre, the colors of which must repeat in the figured lin- em. Whole sets may be made in this fash- fon, the colored material echoing the hoes emploved in the general decora- tion of the room. A blue and white bed- room may have a natural colored jinen bedspread, etc., with centres and bor- ders of willow-pattefned, hand-printed linen. Tassels are being used a great deal to decorate the corners of articles, and these could be made at home of ;_hrvuds to harmonize with the colored inesn. A MODISH EFFECT How nice if you have a felt hat al- ready, how nice if you want to get one. They are still beinz worn as much as ever, although, to excuse this fact, new ways of trimming them are being shown. These are fancier than has been the cus- tom as is shown in the case of the tan felt, with the slightly drooping brim, which has 2 claster of coque feathers on one side. and a band of twistad metal ribbon abont the erown.

SEC’Y WALLACE SAYS Parmers Must Prosper as Well as Pro- duce. In an address ai Frankfort, Indiana, Saturday, Secretary of Agriculture Wallace said: “The present administration believes we have got to have a Prosperous as- riculture as well as a productive agri- culture. Prices for farm produets Which are below the actual cost of pro- duction may for a time seem to be a good thing for the people in the cities. T, the end the result is bad for every- body. Unless agriculture is prosperous it camnot continue to be productive. Farmers cannot and will not continue to produce at a loss. The young men will leave the farm and go to the cities. Just now the people of the United States work in the cities and industrial cen- ters than on the farms, Almost the lowest paid laborers are getting higher wages than skilled farm hands, and more than many men who own their farms, [If this contigues more and more farmers will go to the towns and cities. No one can blame them for this, but it will result in reduced agricul- tural production. After a time prices of farm products will be so high that people in the gities will sufter. It is just as bad for the nation to have prices too high as to have prices too low, There must be a fair relationship between prices of things the farmer has to sell and prices of things he has to buy. There must be a fair relationship be- tween wages on the farm and wages in the city. That is the oply way we can have a balanced national life, “The administration, from the presi- dent down, realizes the danger of the present situation, Copgress realizes it. Congress has passed a number of laws designed to help the farmer improve his condition. Government administra- tive agencies are working along the same line. We have beep reorganizing the work of the department of agricul- ture, to some extent. Heretofore thef emiphasis has been put on showing far- mers how to produce more. That is right and proper. But we propose to put the same emphasis on helping farmers get fair prices for their crops by adjusting their production to the, probable de- mand and by better methods of mar- keting. We have reorgapized the eco- nomic work of the department. We have men in Europe seeking for new outlets and larger outlets for our sur- plus crops. We are studying changing business conditions as they are likely to ipfluence the demand for farm crops, so that we can tell farmers about what they may expect. We are carefully not- ing production in agricultural countries which compete With us. We: are im- proving our methods of estimating our own crops and livestock production. We hape to be able to report more accu- rately the number of hogs and cati and sheep that are grown each year, so that there can be a better balance be- tween our grain crops and our live- stock, and in this way help our people avoid both overprodu: and under- production. “Congress has been back of us in all this. Congress has given us increased money for work of this sort. Congress- men agree with ws that we must have a prosperous as well as a productive ag- riculture.” Today’s Anniversaries 1730—Anne Oldfield, the famous actress, who ordered a bit of rouge to be put on her cheeks when she was dead, died in London.

IN THE PUBLIC EYE Lord Desborough, who has given evi- dence of his fine sportsmanship in a novel and practical manner by insuring his life for $50,000 in favor of the London institution which cares for the blinded war veterans, is krown in Eng- and as the “Prince of Athletes,” a title earned by long and active association with all ‘branches of sport. From the time that he was at Harrow, and played With the eleven in 1873, to the present day, athletics have attracted him. At Oxford he represented the university in the three mile race and rowed in the varsity eight. After leaving the uni- versity he indulged in the pastime of Al- pine climbing, and visited the Himalayas. He swam aeross Niagara on two occas- ions, and completed a variety of achieve. ments by carrving off the punting cham- plonship for three years.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Officers Should Do Their Duty Mr. Editor: I should like to ask Mr. Balkcom what comment he has to make concerning the article in your paper headed, “Finds Hard times less hard under Prohibition.” I am not surprised that the Volstead law is not always en- forced in all places, In fact I am sur- prised that it is enforced at all in any place knowing as I do the fondness that so many men have for both beer and whiskey and how much dearer money is to those who are so willing to be bribed.

When the Polish diet voted to make Gdingen an all-Polish seaport it set many folk searching maps in vain for such a place, says a bulletin from the Washington, D. headquarters of the National Geographic Society. ““To locate the site of the prospective port follow the northward course of the railroad line out of Danzig through Oli- va, Zappot, and across the border of the Danzig free city limits to El Katz. Just north of Kl Kats Gdingen, the site of the proposed all- Polish port. “Following the shore-line instead of the railroad one would come upon a promontory, Aldershorst, some 4 1-2 miles north of Zappot, which comman: a beautiful view of the bay at Zappot to the south and to the north looks over a similar indentation which is the bay at Gdingen, or Gdynia. “On many a lesser Main Strect of America one still finds a general store, with commodities ranging from soup to sealing wax, from chocolate creams to blue denim overalls. And many a farm er customer never pays cash; he ‘trades’ there literally by bringing in his produce and taking an equivalent amount of the store's stock. “Whatever happened to Poland politi- cally, Dansig long has been its great ‘general store’ And the Vistula was the main trade street of the country. Down this Polish Rhime, in centuries past, came lumber and grain to exchange for and spices of the East. Still the V. bears great rafts of grain, rafts which are taken apart for their lumber, 80 that many boatmen must trudge back up stream.
