Modern nations build stately mauso-

The bones of British soldiers are scat

To this rule of indifference as to the

WOMEN DECLAP. FUR MOTHER
 PENSION

SAN ANTONIO. Texas. Jan. 20.-- Special )-That mothers who are left with a family of children without the means to send them to school until they are sixteen years old should be pensioned by the state was a position taken by the Woman's Federation of Clubs at a meeting yesterday. The club women also went further and declared that as a society is organized today children hae no childhood, social engagements and social functions making them dwarf men and women when they
 should be playing the games Of children out in the open and attend
 ing school without so many things to attract attention and unfit them for receiving education. The Federation
 of Clubs of this city is acting pursu- ant to action taken by the State
 Federation in it's annual meeting
 here some weeks ago It is the in- tentiOn of the women of the state to aak the present legislature to pass a law legalizing pensions to mothers, and it is understood that lobby of the brightest women of the state will spend much time in
 Austin urging the passage of this
 measure. In connection with this also, the club women of Texas are urging a most humane child labor
 law and taking much interest in a ~. ton of child life throughout the state They declare that the condi- ton of children today is largely the
 fault of the mothers and assert that
 boys and girls become demoralized
 and wreck their physical health by
 too much social activity, and also that those dependent upon the mother
 alone for support are put into the
 active duties of life at an age when
 when they should be in school aud
 engaging in those things which in-
 sure useful manhood and woman
 hood. That the thoughtful mothes of Texas are very much tp earnest in
 this movement is emphasized by the fact that the State Federation Of Clubs gave it so much attention that the club life throughout the state has been stirred to activity and
 eaTnestness along this line It is admitted that it vii Ibe difficult to get legislators to take the mother pension seriously, but the women of the state. and particularly those Of
 Sen Antonio are determined to prsh

COLD STORAGE IS NJ LONGER
 POTENT

CHICAGO, Jan. 2O.-Millions Of pounds of butter, eggs, cheese and poultry held in the cold storage ware houses here will be thrown on the market before May l aud a general tumbling of food prices is expected lat once, according to comm ission merchants. Numerous Chicago com mission men are said to be facing failure as result of their efforts to maintain an artificial price on the necessities of life. The inability fur ther to uphold this price is said to be due to a combination of circum- stances, chief of which are the open winter of 1911 and the banner crops of 1910.
 Three commission men failed in the last week as a result of holding great quantities of butter, which they purchased at an average of q cents pound, and now are unable to mar ket for more than 27 or 28 cents a pound
 While the wholesale price of but ter and eggs have dropped decidedly within the last few weeks there has as yet been no decline in the retail prices.
 Much of the produce which is to be unloaded on a falling market has been in the warehouse for as long as five years. By means of cold storage commission men have been able to maintain an artificial price not only to the consumer but to the producer, it is said
 No public warehouse report is ever made here, and the exact amount Of produce in the hands Of Chicago firms cannot be estimated. Thirty two warehouses are known to have 44,OOO,0O0 pounds of butter. eggs and poultry.
 Men familiar with the market con- ditions today said it would be impos- sible to say whether that figure re,

bADOUTLOOKFOR PRESIDENTS
 PROGRAM

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Jan 20.- With seven weeks remaining of the life of this congress, the presidents unassuming legislative programme still sems badly tangled in both houses. The significance of the pres ent standstirl lies in the fact that this is a short session that cannot be extended and n the further fact that the unwieldly filbuster threat ened is to be made both for and against the presidents measures.
 Most of the big annual appropria- tion bills are still undisposed of. Though they are ordinarily regardel as routine, they become important strategitically as soon as diIatory tac- tics are resorted to. In fact, to hold up the appropriation bills is the only way by which the advocate of a bill can filbuster for it. Of course, the opponent of measure may talk it to death, or kill it by breaking the quorum, or by many other devices.
 Talk of the fiIbuster is most heard just now in the senate, where the constitutional amendment for the pop ular election of senators is under consideration. The charge that the opponents of the change intended to slave on a vote until congress dies on March is followed in the same breath by the threat of the advocates of popular election to hold up all other legislation until the amendment has been passed. This shows the spirit of the two sides. and when senatorial temper takes the form of delaying proceedings there is no telling when that body will ! get to business again.
 : Senator Borah, who is in charge of the constitutional amendment was prevented on Friday from fixing a date for a vote by the objection of his colleague, MT Hepburn. That objection was evidently expected. Mir. Borah at once announced that he un- derstood the tactics of his opponent but that he could assure him that if the vote were prevented on the constitutional amendment there would be very little legislation at all at this session. That means simply that the senate would find itself un- able to appropriate moneys for the Continued on Page 3.)

 The increased sale of oleomargarine is given as an added cause for the situation, the commission men now find themselves facing. Thousands of consumers unable to pay the price at which butter has been held have become users of oleOmargarine.
 Butter is six cents a pound lower wholesale than it was a year ago, and is selling at the lowest figure in five years. An indication of the de cline in the last ten days is shows in the following.

EXPECT TO SAVE THEMSELVES.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. Jan. 20.-While commission merchants here realize that they are facing a series of prob iems in the matter Of disposing of foodstuffs on hand. they expect to be able to save themselves.
 Conservative estimates tonight place the supply at fully 75 per cent greater than was the case at the same time last year It is said there are more than a half million pounds of butter in cold storage, against approximately 115,O0O pounds last year, with considerable more eggs on hand.
 The butter market particularly is very dull, but retail prices are about the same. from 35 to 40 cents, while wholesale prices range from 20 cents for the lower grades to 26 for the gest.
 Eggs are being held at from 35 to 40 cents retail with wholesale prices from 20 (cold storage) to 27 cent sfor the best More fresh eggs are arriving here daily now than was the case last year.

sanitary make is of white marble and
onyx. A large French plate glass win
dow filled with confectionery made by
the proprietor attracts great deal of
attention and induces passersby to go
in, where several of the most accom-
modating clerks see that their wants
are supplied. Through the center of
the store and on the south side many
small tables are placed where about
forty persons can be accommodated
with the creams and ices and soft
,drinks which have made the Webster
Candy Factory and Webster famous.

School Notes

School opened on last Monday morn
ing with a good attendance in all the
rooms; there was large and enthusi-
astic body of students enrolled in the
high school and in the grades the rooms
were filled; the third and seventh
grades were full, that an overflow
teacher had to be provided. In spite
of the fact that the superintendent,
principal and most of the teachers are
here for their first year, the school
started off without any friction. For
the excellent condition that the school
is in, the faculty of last year deserves
much credit.
During the summer months the
school rooms have been put into the
best possible shape. New desks have
been added, coats of varnish put on to
the old ones, the floors refinished, the
walls tinted, several large windows have
been put in the assembly rooms, and
considerable time and money spent to
put our school house in a very sanitary
condition.
The faculty-H. S. Simmons, A. B.,
B. Pd., halls from the Central Normal
college of Indiana and the State Uni
versity of the same state. He was
superintendent of the DeLamar schools
eight years and of the Bellevue schools
three years, both in Idaho.
Mr.. A. A. Clement, A. B., Pg. B.
halls from Dartmouth, New Hampshire
and Valparaiso, Ind. Mr.. Clement was
principal of the Patriot high school,
Indiana, and principal of Francestowr
Academy, Francestown, N. H.
All the other teachers are ladies from
the best schools and colleges of the
country. They all come well recon-
mended and are proving themselves
to be equal to the best. Four of thu
teachers were retained from last year
Honorable mention must also be made
of our worthy janitor.
