Mrs. Stevens.

The first meeting of the Saturday
Club for the year was held at the
home of the President, Mrs. Stevens.
Mrs. Underwood read a very inter-
esting paper on First ThinesX In
which she related the origin if mapy
articles of familiar use.
She told that paper (papyrus) was
used In ancient Alexandria and China
ink is 1000 years old Printing was
practiced so B. C. Pencils and pens
were used early. The first news
paper was in Venice in 1856. Gun
powder was discovered In 1914. The
Egyptians used bricks. Medicine Of
some sort was used 1000 B. c. Money
has been the root of all evil almost
since creation. Clocks are very
ancient. Playing cards were in
China in 120. The pillow is very
primitive instrument, being at first
a crooked stick drawn through the
EARTH; The Harp was played in
Egypt 800 years B. C.

While the levy for the general
election (including everything as re-
quired by law in 1912 with registra-
tion in SO precincts will cost about
5000 without machines, as less than
$1,000 with registration in IL pre-
einets with machines. it was decided
that it would be better to defer the
buying of voting machines; and have
the voters become better acquaint-
ed with the provisions and the
workings of the registration law.
While the cost of a general elee-
tion Is more than double. as can be
determined when We compare what
it will cost for 33 precincts with that
