Moines and Washington plans. This
suggestion was adopted.
I'VE must arouse the people to sup
port these bills he declared, "and to
support the legislators who promise to
vote for them. The campaign conduct
ed by the Anti-Saloon league will show
US how TO go about securing public
sentiment on our side. In the first
place that league pays no attention to
politics and only asks candidates to
support the prohibition or local OPP
ton bills. Each candidate who favors
the measures proposed by the league is
indOrsed and the league members are
informed of the decision and asked to
support that man. We can do the same
thing in this instance"
d. H. Christensen, superintendent of

others regarding the conduct of the
local city government. He declared that

Christensen's Views.
What we want" said Mr.. Christen-
sen, rs Capitalization of authority and
1 do not believe that there are many
people in this city who would be afraid
to give to John S. Bransford all the
power now vested in the council and
all other city officials
In illustrating the benefits of CEN
traliZatiOn. Mr.. Christensen said, that
before 1890 there We're twenty-five sep
arate school districts in the city with
three supervisors in charge of each.
Then, all the power was given to a
board of ten members, two from each
ward, and this resulted in an immedi-
ate growth OF the school system of
Salt Lake. From the experience he
has had with the board of education he
favored the election of the commission
ers To govern the city from wards and
not from the city at large.
The question, Re declared, seems to
be at this period, What do we want
a comprehensive system before we go
about endeavoring To secure sentiment
In favor of a VisiZ<aTy scheme"
At the conclusion of Mr.. Christen-
sens remarks the subject of cleaning
weeds from bOulevards. enforcing the
smoke ordinances and the use of foul
language on the streets, were taken
up, and the authorities requested to
endeavOr to remedy existing condi-
tons

How to Fill Up Holes in Wood.

It sometimes becomes necessary to
fill up cracks or dents in fine wool
work, furniture, floors, etc. The fol-
lowing is the best way of doing it:
White tissue paper is STEPPED and per-
fectly softened in water and, by thor
ough kneading with glue, transformed
into a paste, and by means of ochera
(earth colors) colored as nearly as
possible to the shade of the wood.
To the paste calcined magnesia is
then added, and it is forced into the
cracks or holes. This cement attach
es itself very G,::s..:7 to the wood, and
after drying retains it's smooth sur
fee.
