FALSE STATEMENTS
REGARDING TARIFF BOARD.
Chairman Emery Considers It Has
Powers Sufficient to Conduct Its
Work Efficiently.

The National Dry Goods Mems asso-
station recently inquired of Chairman
Emery Of the tariff board relative to
pertain matters concerning the board,
n which they are naturally much in
ierested. The following. is the reply
hrected tO-Mr. Pinkham Of New York:
hr. F. Colburn Pinkham, 233 West
seth Street, New York ettye
Dear Sir-Referring to your letters
pf May I'd and 18th l am very glad to

I've quoted me as saying that the
oard is d huge joke because it can OBJ

20 say that I believe the three reports
published by the board already entirely
disprQve the claim that the board can

accurate information through the
methods adopted by the board than
'could have been secured by any testi-
mony under coercion. l discussed this
matter very fully in an address deliv-
cred at Chicago at the beginning Of the
boards work. and went on record then

efficient work by a board of this char

mas convinced me that | was right in
THAT assertion. and that a permanent
board created by statute similarly en-
dowed with the powers which the pres
ent board has. would meet effectively
che desires Of the advocates Of a per-
manent tariff commission. l may add
that this is The uniform opinion among
tariff experts abroad, and that none Of
the various bodies entrusted with tariff
snvestigatipn in Europe have powers
greater Than those of the present
board in this country
Furthei91inre. In this connection let
me call your attention to the fact that
the president strongly. urged the estab-
hshrnent Of "a permanent board with
enlarged powers. and required to re-

fused to establish such a board. but il

NEGLECTED Utopia.

Why is the earthly paradise unat-
tractiye? Everything that human in
genuity can do to make an ideal
dwelling place out of Australia has
been done. 1t is the Utopia from
which reformers drew their sugges-

ports to other lands more fads for
betterment than any other product.
Yet Australia, the source Of plans for
happiness to all the world. is sadly
neglected by seekers after happiness.

| SCANDAL IN ENGLISH RUGBY
Many Devonshlre Players Receive
Compensation for Lost Time In
Addition to Expenses.

English Rugby football is faced with
scandal which may lead to wider
breach in the English Rugby Union as
that which caused the formation of the
Northern Union in the nineties.
Rugby Is ostensibly purely
amateur game in England in distinc-
ton to the association game, which Is
played largely by professional teams.
Recently the Northern Union ad-
herents invaded Devonshire and at
tempted to recruit players from the
existing Rugby clubs. This campaign
led to the exposure Of the fact that
many of the Devonshire players were
receiving compensation for time lost
from work in addition to their ex-
penses while playing with their teams.
This practice is open among the teams
of the Northern Union, which has re-
vised the Rugby rules until the form 1t
plays is SO strenuous that professional
players are necessary for a success
full team.
Some Of the Devonshire players who
have been suspended for negotiating
with the Northern Union invaders
state that the payment for lost time is
general in the Rugby Union, and they
declare that they will expose the sys-
tenn at the investigation which has
been ordered by the governing com
mittee of the union
The scandal comes at a particularly
inopportune time, as the South Afri-
can Springboks have recently COM
menced a tour of the Rugby Union.
England is particularly anxious to
present an unbroken front to the in
vaders in order to wipe out the in
broken series of defeats which the
last South African team inflicted on
the English f1fteens several years ago.
During that tour the South Africans
suffered only one reverse, and that
was at the hands of the Scottish
Union. The present invaders declare
that they will return home with a
clean score, and they are determined
to show the Scots that their victory
was fluke.

"KECKIE" MCLL IN COMMAND
Former Wisconsin Star Succeeds Mar
quis F. Horr as Football Coach at
Purdue-Team Neglected.

A bomb was exploded in the Purdue
football camp, when the board of di-
rectors of the University Athletic
association dismissed Marquis F. Horr,
football coach, from his position and
turned the coaching of the Boilermak-
er Squad over to Coach ''Keckie" Mol,
who has charge of the back field only.
George G. Dunlap, an instructor in the
university, who has been coaching the
freshmen, was appointed varsity line
coach.
The action Of the directors, while it
came unannounced, was not entirely
unexpected, for 1t was generally re-
Vilas County news. [volume] (Eagle River, Vilas County, Wis.) 1896-1927, 1912-11-27

ported that an investigation was being
made of the conduct of Coach Horr
with a view to either disciplining him
or releasing him from Purdue's en-
ploy. Improper conduct" Is the Ian
guage used by the directors in its re-
port ordering the dismissal of Horn.
1t is charged that he has so conducted
himself as to make his future connec-
ton with the university undesirable.
Purdue's poor showing when every
body expected championship team,
led to the drastic action. The &C
ton, it is declared, is in no sense re-
taliatory, neither is it due to a desire
for punishment for inefflciency. The
directors feel that the football squad,
owing to Coach Horr's misconduct,
has been neglected.
Coach Horr came to Purdue from
Northwestern a year before last. He
had previously achieved fame as a
player on the Sycamore university
eleven, being selected as all-American
tackle two consecutive years. He
went to the Olympic games several
years ago and was star in the weight
events.

IN The SEWING ROOM
SHORT BITS OF WISDOM THAT
ARE OF VALUE.
VIII Be Found to Be Labor Savers a.
well as Economical-How Rusty
Needles May Be Effective
ly Cleaned.

"hen darning rent in wooden
goods and it is impossible to ravel
out the goods itself for thread to darn
"lth' use long hairs from your own
mead. The loose weave of the wool
roses the hair in its meshes, and SO
the darn becomes invisible.
The best way to clean rusty needles
is TO run them up and down in the
earth. Just go out in the garden and
SUCK the needles in the ground, then
pun them out. Have the needles
threaded, with the thread tied double,
so there will be something to catch
hold or to extract the needle from the
earth This method is even better
than using an emery bag.
When buttons come off shoes and
you sew them on again, run through
all the other buttons with the same
thread with which you replace the
missing ones. 1t will strengthen them
all and make the next button sewing
a task far in the future.
Small holes in black or white kid
gloves can easily be mended with
court-plaster. Cut the plaster a little
larger than the hole itself, and stick
1t to the under part Of the glove d.
rectly over the hole. pressing the kid
down smooth on the sticky surface of
the plaster. This will last as long as
the gloves themselves do
If the tip breaks off the end of your
scissors. the Jagged point may be
smoothed off by rubbing it on a whet,
stone. The point will be uneven, but
1t will cut all right The same treat
ment may be used for blunted needles.
Glove clasps, or snap fasteners are
better to use as fastening for plack-
cts on cloth dresses than are hooks
and eyes. But when the latter are
used be sure to buy those having the
peat eyes instead of the ordinary loop
eye.
Silk petticoats always give way first
at the seam; therefore, when you buy
a new one, sew silk seam binding
over each seam on the right side.
This will often serve as cure for
wornout petticoats.
When doing drawn work or hem
stitching on linen, soap the place
where the threads are to be
drawn, using a thick soap lather and
a soft brush After the work is once
started. it will be an easy matter to
draw out the threads, as they slip very
easily on the soapy surface.
