WANT SLEEP RATHER

Daylight Movement Rejected by

Washington, May 26. The daylight

in Washington. The government

ing scheme, profess to be greatly sur
prised at the result. The chief reason
given for rejecting the proposal was
simply that the clerks preferred sleep
to recreation. They decided that the
hour in bed in the morning was worth
two or three on the ball field or golf
course in the afternoon.
There was another reason which in
f1uenced the clerks. 1t was a dread
suspicion that congress might per-
petuate the early working part of the
scheme.

OPPOSITION TO TAFT
II Results In Dover Being Sidetracked
on Fat Position

Washington, May 25.-Elmer
Dover, former secretary of the Re
publican national committee, whose
appointment as national bank exam
liner at New York has been held up
by the comptroller OF the currency,
will be offered a similar post in some
other district, it is said.
When it was announced that Dover
would receive the appointment at New
York number of protests were made
70 the president to the effect that a
position paying Sl2 900 a year was
too high a reward for Dover, who, it
was asserted, was opposed to Taft's
nomination up to the very last moment
and was replaced on the national COM
mittee because Of this antagonistic
attitude toward the candidate.
President Taft had agreed to the
appointment as a favor to some Of
Dovers friends, but he was some
what taken aback by the facts, when
ascertained, as to the emoluments OF
the national bank eXaminership at
New York.

Long ago the Scotch learned this.

The sturdy old Scotchman must be
amused at the recent discoveries" that
oatmeal is the best food in the world
Our scientific men have been making
experiments which prove that Ameri-
cans cat too much fat and grease and
not enough cereals.
The Scotchmen say: Look at our
nation as proof. The sturdiest nation
on earth" Still we have one good point
to make. We make better oatmeal than
the Scotch.
They buy Quaker Oats and consider
it the leader OF all oatmcals to be had
anywhere Quaker Oats is sold in FAM
