Is there way of cleaning white lace with
out sending It to a cleaners? Very truly,
Mrs. B.
To dry clean white lace, rub 1t in flour
as you would soap and water. and let it
lay for some time, with the flour in It.
Then shake it out, and If not quite
clean, repeat the process, which will
make 1t look like new, unless badly
soiled or stained.

Idaho's livestock is valued at
$5O,00O,OO0 and has more than
doubled in value during the past
decade. Horses comprise two
fifths of the whole, sheep 80 per
cent and cattle % per cent. This
is a good showing for a state of
but $4,000 population, it being
an average Of $3.50 worth of live
stock for each inhabitant. While
this is large average, it is small
compared with the possibilities of
the development of the indus
try in this state.
The conditions here are excep-
tionally favorable for the produc-
ton of beef animals, dairy stock,
hogs, sheep and bees. As it is
Idaho and other northwestern
states now import from the east
large quantities of dairy and meat
products that could as well be
produced at home. This is an ag

No country on the map needs
good road laws and stringent en-
forcement of the same more than
this bully good state of Idaho.
Reasons 1t is new and undevel-
oped; it is a large percent noun
famous, with the valleys and pla-
teaus Of the north black sticky
loan, requiring a good deal of at
tention, while the irrigated south
is a sandy loan and volcanic ash,
with moving and shifting qualit-
les; and last but not least, most
of the roads have yet to be made.
Therefore, in view of our youth
fulness, which we cannot help 4
and our needs, which we must
meet, the following from the st.
Paul Farmer, on Compulsory
Road Dragging should be read
with interest and followed with
with profit in this thrifty, grow
ing young Commonwealth. 1t
says:
1T is only comparatively
few years ago that the split-log
drag first came, into popularity
in the Mississippi valley states.
Although not . new invention at
that time, it had not come into
general Use. Thanks to the act
tive work done by the agricultur.
al papers and railroads in recent
years, the splitlog drag is now
coming to be a common implement
in road-making in nearly every
section of the corn belt States il
other words, wherever earth road
are in use. A great difficulty
with the splitslog drag, however
is the fact that it is so simple an,
so economical.
1.-THE. last session of the lows
Legislature inaugurated a new
feature in the split-log drag mov'
ment by making the dragging o
earth roads in that state com
pulsory matter. The new drag
ging law makes possible ont
mill tax on township propert,
and the fund thus raised can b.
used for no other purpose excep
the dragging Of the roads. FIT,
cents O mile is the rate allowed
for road dragging and supervis
or may be hired to do the work
Road dragging with a split-lot
drag should become a practice
in every community. The worl
can be so easily and economical,
done that every farmer shout,
find it to his own advantage t
drag the roads whether he re
ceives pay for it or not. If we ca
not have progress in this direc
ton, however, law, such as tina
passed by the Iowa Legislature
should prove a decided benefit il
getting the work done, anyway.

and the harbor thrown in with which
to enjoy their visit There is no city
in the south where you are wanted
more than in this city ON the gulf
where strangers are made to feel that
they are one OF US.
Those composing this organization
are among the best and most pro-
gressive citizens Of their respective
cities and it is an honor to our people
to have them with us at this time.
Insurance men are always boosters Of
the first water and everything will be
done by our people to make this a
memorable occasion for them that
they may leave with only pleasant
recoliections OF the Deep Water City
and it's people.
Pensacola has been the scene Of
many conventions. but none were Of
more Importance than the one which
is with US today. The insurance bust
ness is growing until 1t is one of the
largest ana most profitable In the coun-
try. and Is engaged in only by shrewd
and upright business men.
The city Is turned over to the visit
ors with authority to enjoy their visit

SCHOOLS or COUNTRY NOT
FULFILLING THEIR MISSION

Editor Pensacola Journal.
/ have been much interested In sew
eral communications appearing in your
''Vox PopuH' column during the past
month, touching the question of educa-
ton, and calling attention to some
startling conditions in connection with
our educational institutions as at pres
emit constituted.
Education misdirected often does
more harm than good, uniting the
recipient for that state OF life unto
which it hath pleased God to call him"
and instead of a useful citizen we have
an unhappy failure so far as the in
dividual is concerned, and society is
deprived Of the best efforts of one of
its members. The actual conditions as
presented by Rev. John H. Brown are
startling. and call for serious thought
as to the causes, for surely in the
face of such figures our schools are
not fulfilling their mission, certainly
not as completely as they should, and
we should look for the cause, and
remedy it If possible, for upon the
education of the youth of today rests
the welfare Of the next generation.
What then, Mr.. Editor, is the reason
the schools, and the deplorably large
number of young children either put
to work at tender age when they
should be acquiring an education or
are allowed to roam the streets, which
is far worse? Is it because the schools
as at present constituted do not inter
est the child, or is 1t that the par
ents do not sufficiently appreciate the
benefits of proper education of their
children? 1 firmly believe that it is
much of both.
1t has been shown that large ma
jority of our citizens are engaged in
agricultural or mechanical or COM
mercial pursuits, and so far as know
the schools furnish practically nothing,
at least in the lower grades. that would
tend to fit a child for either. The par
emit, not appreciating the necessity for
education, and not seeing that the
child is being taught something that is
useful, takes the child away, and puts
him, or her to work to help support
the family, not realizing that he is
doing a great injustice to himself, the
child and society.
II 1t could be made clear to the par
ent that the child was being fitted to
be competent farmer, or mechanic.
or what you please, and that attend
ance at school would make him in the
end ten fold more competent to earn,
think 1t would go a long way toward
solving the problem, but it will neces-
state a change in the present school
system.
am firm Deliver in the public
school system, and have. and expect to
continue to patronize 1t insofar as it
serves the purpose, but can say from
personal observation in my own fam
lily that some change in the present
system might be made to advantage.
Every child should be compelled to
attend school up ito a certain age. and
the eduaction should be of such a
nature as to fit him, or her, to COM
petently fill some position in the com
muity life.

DISASTER IN RUSSIA
SHOULD BE A WARNING

Editor Pensacola Journal.
see in this mornings Journal an
account of a terrible disaster In a
moving picture theatre in Russia,
where ninety people lost their lives,
and forty others were injured.
Too much care cannot be given by
the city officials in inspecting these
popular little places of amusement. A
panic is so easily started, and so dis
astrous in its effects, and an ounce of
prevention is better than a pound of
cure.
People should never be allowed 20
stand in the aisles. Then the So called
exits, near the picture screen, should
Lead directly to outdoors. They are
often narrow and INSTRUCTED with
boxes and rubbish, and frequently the
rear door is locked, hard to open, or
opens in instead Of out as 1t should.
Then the operating room should pe
rtgidly inspected. as this is the place
TO start a panic from: No opening
should be allowed between the picture
operating room and the auditorium ex-
cept the small ones to focus the pic
ture through, for II there is a large
opening, and anything happens, sucn
as an explosion or fire in the operating
room, the smoke will gush out through
this opening into the auditorium and
cause panic at once.
All operating rooms should be lined
throughout with galvanized iron, as
when asbestos is used it frequently
gets torn and so is no good.
Lastly. keep the aisles clear.
Close all large openings from opera.-
ing room to auditorium, and see that
the rear exit is open and can be used
If necessary.

The Passing
.QCongress.

The sixty-frst congress Of the Unit
ed States can now be referred to as
the late unlamented.
It served it's day and time and
passed out Of existence. according to
the number of it's days.
Its demise il unwept and unhonored.
and there are doubtless many people
who believe that 1t would have been
better for this government If It had
never come into existence.
It was the author of the most iniqui-
tous tarin bill that was ever placed on
the statute books bill that was
about what the protected interests
everywhere wanted.
It never made any honest effort at
tarif reform; 1t ascertained what the
pampered dariings OF protection want
ed to keep out competition and having
so ascertained. it proceeded to act ac-
cordingly. It had no thought of the
consumer. the one who pays the
freight" and operated only in the in
terest Of the manufacturer.
AS result Of the work of the de-
ceased congress, whenever q man buys
suit Of clothes he pays about Is per
cent more than he paid under a FOR
mer ubiquitous tariff law. but which
was not so desperately bad as the AL
drich-Payne affair. An increased
tribute is exacted on every line OF
goods that is purchased by the con-
sumner.
The Republican party had pledged
the people to revise the tariff down
ward. but, drunk with power. 1t secuted
its promises. and the tariff went w
instead OF downward on the necessi-
ties OF life.
There are other sins Of commission
and omission that might be laid to tbs
door of the sixty first congress, but thc
tariff is enough.
The people, by their ballots last fall
expressed their disgust with q party
that not only would not keep its prom
ises. but actually went to the contrary
