Representative Lands Thinks Investi-
CATION by Congress Will Be
Hefty JOB.

In the opinion of Representative
Charles Lands, of Indiana. chairman
of the House Committee on Printing.
the investigation of the affairs OF the
Government Printing Office, by the joint
committees of the Senate and House. is
likely to prove a hefty job. Mr. Lands
thinks. however, the committee will be
able to submit its report by the middle
OF the coming session.
The number of avenues along which
such an investigation may find its way
is amazing, said the Indiana Repre-
sentative. at the White House today.
Not only is the question Of printing
involved, but also matters of purchas-
ing. waste, and administration, reach
ing out in every direction"

A Helpful Day.

In every community there are
mothers, who on account OF the press
OF various household duties, would be
thankful to have the childrens' plain
things made at reasonable rates, but
find it hard to secure anybody who
will not charge exorbitant prices. A
member of our Ladies' Aid suggested,
that as our treasury needed replenish-
ing, we should take this line OF work,
meeting every two weeks in the
Church parlor, or at some home
where the lady OF the house needed
our services; charging 81 for an after
noon. Mrs. B., requested that we
would begin with her, as "the
children needed things just dread
fully"
When we arrived, we found a
modest pile Of outing flannel skirts
and night dresses for the wee ones OF
the family; there were eight of us
present, and IL the tongues flew fast
so did the fingers. One member re-
laued funny incident that occurred
during her summer outing, another
told of her soul narrowing experience
with maid that could not speak a
word of English; amid much merri.
ment the sewing went on, the work
was finished and still an hour
remained.
Mrs. B., declared that we had done
entirely too much for the small sum
asked, and declined to furnish any.
thing else; at this there was general
outcry, some Of the ladies assuring
her that If she did not supply theil
demands, they would make raid
upon her stocking basket. At this
she brought out three shirt waists
that needed button holes, confessine
that she really dreaded doing suct
things.
The light grew dim, but the worl
was finished, and such pilel Mrs. B.
asserted that she ought to pay extra
for the amount accomplished, but tn.
