Rising an Hour Earlier.
One secret of her leisure is the
fact that when she is entertaining she
rises about an hour earlier than us
ual. BY the time we are down to
breakfast, the daily sweeping and
busting has been quietly done; fire.
quently the dessert for dinner has
been made, and, if possible, the veg
etables have been prepared for that
meal. After breakfast she seldom
has more to do than to wash the
dishes and do her own bedroom work.
This perfect hostess of mine knows
the secret of true hospitality-to
make guests feel at home in the real
sense. And so she allows us to do
many things that we can do as well
az not, such as caring for Our own

product of their labor would not in
terfere with free labor, or at least not
in the manner it does now through
The result of shop work. The worst
class of convicts would, of course, re-
main within the prison walls and be
employed in the manufacture of wear
ing apparel for the inmates of pub
lie charity institutions, school furni-
ture and such other occupations as
would compete the least with out
side labor.
County prisoners entail heavy
cost upon most of the counties in the
state \ man may be sent to Jail for
six months or one year, and the coun-
ty must pay for his keep all this time
aud receive nothing in return. The
governor thinks it would be better
for all concerned if these prisoners
were employed on the highway.
The fact that the state will soon
be forced to find employment for
about 1000 convicts makes this mat
ter ole Of no small Importance. The
pris an is earning &about $265,000 a
year, and has been practically self
supporting for great many years.
All this will have to be transferred
to the other side of the ledger when
the last contractor leaves the prison.

serole, vegetables that have been

with us, and it is seldom more than
three quarters of an hour after our
return before we are eating as deli
cious dinner as One could wish.
| have noticed that frequently she
prepares enough vegetables to last
two days. For instance, corn is
served on the cob one day, and on
the next we have it scalloped or
creamed, and obviously she had the
second dish in mind when she cooked
so much of the vegetable originally.
Potatoes and vegetables are put into
their dishes and, with the platter of
meat, are placed in the oven before
she takes up the soup, and salad and
dessert courses are arranged on
trays all ready to be borne to the
table. When We are through with
one course, she quietly removes the
soiled dishes with one tray, returning
Immediately with the next course on
another tray. 1t is only a little
thing, but it helps to make the house.

tenn of working convicts within the
prison walls it will be possible the
first Of next April to assign 300 Con-
yicts to work upon the public high
ways.
A law has been in effect for some
time under which county prisoners
can be worked on the roads and city
prisoners on city streets. In Colo
RADIO, Texas, Georgia. Virginia, North
Carolina and New Mexico convicts
are now employed on the public high
ways, and from communications re-
ceiyed from the officials of these
States, Hadley says he is satisfied
that the system is a decided success.
This is matter of much impor-
lance in Missouri just now, for the
state is on the eve of emerging from
the contract system of working con-
victs after an experience of some
forty years. 1t is not presumed that
the labor of the worst kind of con-
victs could be utilized in this way, but
the great majority of convicts are
short-term men. and they would be
glad of an opportunity to have out
side employment.
1t is probable that in the course Of
few years fully 1.5oo conyisstss GOULD
be employed in this way, and the

MY PERFECT HOSTESS.

tBy Bertha Bellows Streeter.
There is one home we enjoy visit
ing more than any other. It is not
because Of any luxury we find ther2
indeed, Of that there is none 1t is
not because there are servants at our
beck and call--our hostess does ev-
cry bit Of her work with her own
capable hands. 1t is not because we
are lavishly entertained there, for
1 entertainment in the popular sense
never SO much as poked it's nose into
the little town where this friend of
ours lives.
The real secret of the pleasure we
gain from our visits lies in our hos
tess and her sensible methods of
! home-making. She never seems to be
/ in hurry, and gives one the impress
sion that she has abundant leisure in
which to enjoy her friendships And
yet no one who has had the pleas
gre OF being her guest ever lacked
any good thing in he line of "crea-
! ture comforts

toilet articles are busted, and put into

It is a matter of but a few minutes
kfor her to prepare the room for the
next guest, and when the bed has
been made, and the toilet articles are
on the dresser, one has four spacious
drawers and a closet at her disposal.
Nothing that is needed by anyone
except the guest is ever kept in this
room or it's closet, SO one does not
have the uncomfortable feeling that
she is putting some member of the
family to inconvenience.
When she invites us, this hostess
always states cc-,ii;.iir time for our

can plan her work with their visit in

KICK-NOW.

The unfavorable report on the
Columbia River from Cello to
Wenatchee, by Major Kutz, of the
Board of Army Engineers, has
brought many protests from those
having the welfare Of this section of
the state at heart. Those who have
written to Senator Poindexter in
regard to the report have received
word that the Senator has taken
prompt action in the matter and
has had a new time set for the hear
ing of complaints. You will have
until December to use all the in
fluence possible to present your
complaint to the board and the Sen
ator and Congressman. Attorney
Routhe, of Richland, sent vigor-
Gus protest to Poindexter and bis
answer will be found on another
page in this issue. But it takes
more than one or two little COM
plants to make the powers that be
feel that the whole valley is intense
ly interested in this matter, so take
it up strongly. The improvement
of the river means lot to the peo-
pie who intend to make this their
permanent home. 1t also means
much to those who are opposed to
the plan, and it is up to the people
to see that those interests are op-
posed.

STATE NEEDS PUBLICITY FUND

AS a state, Washington has practi-
cally gone out Of the publicity, de-
spite the fact that it needs several
million settlers to cultivate its vast
areas Of unoccupied lands. Recent
Iy, Secretary of State Howell was
forced to admit that he could not
supply literature enough to the
many inquirers he hears from al
most daily. The last legislature
cut off the fund out of which 1.-THE
Booster Book" was printed each
year. Now, Washington's adver-
Using depends wholly on the COM
mercial organizations and the rail-
roads. In the face of this, Oregon
as state is spending more money
than ever. People interested in
seeing Washington developed believe
that Publicity and Funds to Provide
1t, should be one of the biggest
issues in the next campaign.

A STATE THAT GOES AHEAD

So far as the state of Washington
is concerned, there are to be found
in almost every part of the conf
monwealth evidences of forward
movement in industry and COM
merce.
Ellensburg, at cost Of $50, 900
is to erect a wooden mill which will
afford profitable employment to a
considerable number of thrifty citi--
zcns.
Everett is to build a new salmon
cannery at a cost of $40, 900.
Around Kennewick and in other
fruit growing sections of the state
many new orchards are being plant
ed this year. Sumas will soon
have a new bank building.
Citizens living on or near the
upper Columbia have entered upon
vigorous campaign for an open
waterway, because they realize that
that it will be impossible to develop
the rich resources of that section
unless the river is open to them.
These are only few of the little
and large betterments launched in
different parts of the state; but they
indicate that in every part of Wash
ington progressive citizens are keen
to development possibilities and
are determined to play some part
in putting Washington among the
foremost of American states.
States are not developed in day.
Nor is it always the big movement
that counts. The most hopeful sign
in Washington is not altogether in
it's big industrial and commercial
movements, but in the large num-
Der and variety of little enterprises
that are constantly springing up in
all parts of the state. -Post-Intel-
ligencer.

FOLLOW FISHERS FOOTSTEPS

United States Senator Miles Poin-
dexter of Spokane, who will &C
company Clifford Pinchot, presi-
dent Of the National Conservation
association, and several friends on
tour OF Alaska in September, says
he is DESTROYS of becoming more
familiar with the actual conditions
in the territory and will investigate
the practicability of these projects:
Government construction of rail-
road from the Alaska coal fields to
CONTROLLER Bay; opening of the coal
fields by the government of the
United States, and federal owner
ship of line of steamships plying
between Puget Sound and Alaska.
1t is announced that Senator Poin-
dexter and several progressive sem
ators from the middle western
states will present measures at the
next session of Congress to secure
the foregoing legislation, in the
event the investigation to be under
taken by the National Conservation
association warrants such action.
Senator Poindexter thinks this is
the only recourse of the people of
the United States to avoid the con-
troll OF coal and transportation in
Alaskan territory by monopoly.

UNIVERSITY LOSES GOOD MAN

When the State University opens
its doors for the fall semester next
month, the students will miss some
of their favorite faculty members.
One of the latest to leave the insti-
tuition is Prof. Merle Thorpe, who
founded the journalistic depart
ment. Thorpe goes to the Univer-
sity of Kansas at larger salary.
1t has been the misfortune of Wash
ingtOn's foremost school to lose a
number of good teachers in the past
year because better inducements are
held out elsewhere, AS President
Kane has frequently observed, it is
almost discouraging to try to build
up and hold an efficient faculty,
considering the salary allowance
made,

EDUCATION IN MOTION PICTURES

Moving pictures are now being
used by the Washington Association
for the Prevention and Relief of
Tuberculosis, in the prosecution of
its work. The organization ap-
peared before the State Editorial
convention recently and interested
the newspapers in helping it to
make more general appeal. A
motion picture exhibit has been as
sembled which tells the story in a
graphic form. AT present the pic
lures are being shown in Western
Washington The Association will
exhibit them wherever a community
wants them. School boards are
taking especial interest in the anti
White Plague campaign.

Why not compel the owners OF
vacant lots in the city, and the
country districts, too, for that mat
ter, to burn all weeds. Right now,
before the seeds start to scatter, is
the time to have it done. The
simple precaution taken now will
do much to keep the city in trim
for the coming year.

The few ladies who have been
taking care of the library since its
removal to the Commercial Club
quarters deserve much credit for
their pains. A library is power
for good in any community and the
least any of us can do to show our
appreciation of the efforts OF the
faithful will be to patronize the
library.

Signaling at Sea.

The custom of signaling at sea by
means Of various colored flags is very
ancient, and the method seems to have
been brought to degree Of develop
ment bordering very closely on perfec-
ton. Many people have been astonish-
ed at the length Of messages conveyed
in few moments and with the use Of
but half dozen flags Id various COM
binations, and when the extent of the
language and the completely of many
necessary messages are considered the
eighteen flags in the signal flag locker
seem very inadequate. However, 1t
must be remembered that the signal
code utilizes a sort of shorthand, and
many long messages, known to be Of
frequent occurrence, have been con-
tracted to a single showing Of flags
In given combination. The number
Of flags hoisted when signal is made
never exceeds four. With the eighteen
flags Of various colors, using four for
each signal. no fewer than 1862 COM
binati0ns can be made.

Wash Day Made Easy.

In an ordinary wash boiler put one
and half inches Of water. then put in
three fourths to one bar of good laun-
dry soap thinly sliced Let it come to
a boil. then put in one and a half to
two tablespoonful Of kerosene oil.
When the soap is all dissolved add
enough water to fill the boiler two
thirds to three-fourths full. then put
the clothes in. After boiling five to
eight minutes they can be removed
thoroughly white and clean. Without
changing the water you can boil two
or three successive patches of clothes.
This method beats all the washing
machines ever made. In this way
clothes require no rubbing. 1t saves
nine-tenths Of the labor on wash day.
Try it and be convinced.
