SPRINGFIELD. Ill, June SO.-Ferdi-
nand Schwedtman. vice president ana
general manager of the Racine Stat
ley Machine works, today admitted
that he was a member of the lobby
board of the National Manufacturers
association the past ten years. as al
legged in the confession of Col. Null
hall.
II admit all the allegations with one
exception" said Schwedtman We
paid the expenses OF organizers In
many districts in the hope OF electing
men who were favorable to our prin-
ciples. II that is a crime. then we are
guilty. We never paid any money to
any official for the purpose of advanc-
ing legislation favorable 70 us. Every
thing that We did was business.
Whether or not there was any money
spent by the manufacturers individu-
ally. do not know.
Aided Late Vice President.
Statements that we aided In the
election of the late vice president. Mr..
Sherman, are true. Sherman wrote
us that he was having strong opposi-
ton in the Utica district We inform
ed the members of our association In
that district that Mr.. Sherman. who
advocated the principles for which we
stood. was being opposed and to do all
in their power to assist him. Our or
ganizers would go TO districts where
men We were for were strongly op-
posed, and would interview all manu-
facturers. Then l would be asked to
help our candidates financially in le-
gitimate campaign expense. That is
all there is to the whole story"

He AdvertiSes
That He
Doesn't Advertise.

A manufacturer of national
ly distributed product encloses
In each package that leaves his
factory a printed slip bearing
the following:
'Our competitors spend
$S.00o.000 annually to ad-
vertise their products. We
put quality into our instead
thus giving our patrons the
benefit of the money we
save by not advertising"
The remarkable part about
the above is the fact that here's
firm that ADVERTISES
THAT 1T DOES NOT ADvER-
TISE!
IL this manufacturer is sincere
he will wake up some day and
tell the public about the excel
lence of his own product in some
legitimate, reason why" adver-
tising. Then, if his goods are all
he says they are he will do lot
more business and make more
real money than ever he dream
ed of before.
For an honest product daily
newspaper advertising is the
cheapest, ablest salesman ever
employed. and most advertising
is pretty good guarantee of
quality.

MONTE VISTA LOSES
TO ALAMOSA

The Monte Vista high school
football team was defeated at Ala
mosa last Saturday in the score Of
ii to o.
The Alamosa team was strength
ened by the addition of several
players who were not attending
school and Monte could not make
headway through their heavy line.
A heavy wind prevented passing
of the ball, which WAS relied upon
by Monte to make their best gains.
Alamosa made their first touch
down in the second quarter of
play, their next touchdown in the
third quarter and a safety in the
last quarter. Alamosa's goal was
in danger only once when Monte
advanced the ball to within one
yard and then lost the ball on
fourth down. Hicks, right end
for Alamosa, made a run of about
80 yards for touchdown.
The Monte Vista lineup was as
follows: Left end, Kegley; left
tackle, Santistevan; left guard
Schall, Collins; center, Bone; right
guard, Corlett; right tackle, Lin.
denmeyer; right end, Heilman
quarter, Ditto; left half, Braiden
right half, Ralph Baird; full back

EGG ROLLING YESTERDAY .s,

WASHINGTON, D. c., March "a
An army Of infants today invaded the

portico of the executive mansion and

crowded on the White house lawns,

ing festival which for years has been
fixture on Easter Monday. From

afternoon the youngsters frolicked
around the grounds, rolling their col
ored eggs and playing games. They
were given the absolute run of the
place. No grown folk we're admitted
to the grounds unless accompanied by
children, and there was the usual
amusing incidents of small boys hir-
ing themselves out in relays to in
quisitive adults who desired to get a
close view of the quaint and time-hon-
ored custom Of Easter Monday in the

CAN IDEAL MAN SMOKE?
QUESTION BOTHERS GIRLS

CHICAGO. March 24.--Young wom-
en- of the Fulleton Avenue Presbyte-
rian church tried and failed to decide
upon the qualifications of the ideal
man. Tobacco caused their failure.
For more than week the Dorcas
Bible class worried over the qualifi-
cations, many outlining their ideals in
letters to their pastor, Rev. Hugh T.
Kerr. When they assembled they
agreed that their ideal must have a
sweet mouth to kiss, must be Chris
tian, must be good to his mother,
must even give up his seat in the car
to an aged woman, though pretty
girl stood by, must not use liquor,
and right there they came to the
smoke question.
Eight of the girls said it was i'm
material to them whether the ideal
man smoked: three of them said they
would expect him to, and the re-
mainder said they wouldn't agree to
any such habit. After the meeting
1t was intimated that possible rea-
sons for the lack of unanimity might
be found in comfortable little club
room up in the tower of the church
where the Fullenton Club Bible class
was meeting.
Some of the most popular young
men of the neighborhood belong to
the Bible class. And several of them
use the fragrant weed. Besides, sew
eral of these popular young men are
admirers of young women of the Dor
cas- class. There's reason.
The girls did decide that they could
blame the boys for one grave fault,
and all the young men are included
in this criticism.
"If men did not seemingly admire
silly, frivolous, make-believe girls,
many young women could be natural,
could be themselves"

HARDY PIONEER LAID TO REST

Cornelius Kesler was born in the
Mohawk river valley in New York on
Easter Sunday, April %, 1921. His
ancestors were among the founders of
New Amsterdam. When the colony
was captured by the British they NOV
ed to the Mohawk valley amid more
congenial surroundings. The senior
Mr.. Kesler was wounded in the war
of 1912 and died IS years later from
the injuries, when the subject of this
sketch was only nine years of age.
In the days of his early manhood
Cornelius Kesler was employed in the
lumber woods. Later he learned the
ship builders trade. When he moved
to Green Bay, Wis, in 1847 this be-
came his means of livelihood. In
Shebogyan county Mr.. Kesler met,
wooed and won Miss Emma Unes Rob-
erts. They resided in Wisconsin many
years after their marriage. In 1878
they moved to Nebraska which was
the family home until 1894, when they
came to Durango to be near their
daughter, Mrs. Fannie Pelton-Wil-
hanson, now deceased. The family
numbered ten children, three of whom
have proceeded the father to the
Great Beyond. Those surviving are
Mrs. Walter Jones and viii Kesler of
the Florida, Mrs. Rosa Plum and Mrs.
Sullivan Hickinbotham, who reside at
the old home in Nebraska, Mrs. Mary
Neff of Berthoud, Colo, j. C. Kesler of
Boulder and Mrs. Nellie Peck of Ell
Monte, Calf. Mr.. Kesler made his
home with the latter for three years
last. 1t is she who brought the re-
mains to this city to place them be-
side his wife who passed away in
1909. ,rll-s
The funeral was held from the Hood
& Ames Undertaking parlors this af-
ternoon. Rev. Mr.. Crozier officiated
