HOUSEHOLD ECONOMY IS NEXT
Manufacturers Have But Lately Used
Waste Products and Housewife
VIII Adopt Plan Soon.

An important factor In tho indus
trial prosperity Of the world Is tho
utilization of waste products. It has
not been long, as time goes. since
packers learned that they would use
all OF the pig except his squeal. Saw
dust, which was formerly thrown
away, is now the chief fuel OF many
lumber mills, or from 1t great guam
titles OF wood alcohol are manufac-
tured. The Industrial world has
learned to take It's profits from what
yesterday were waste products.
There Is a fortune left every morn
Ing In American coffee cups. 1t Is es-
timated that the average person uses
at least fifth moro sugar than the
LIQUID into which It Is put absorbs.
Smokers habltually throw away q
third of every cigar or cigarette light
ed Gas ranges are kept burning be-
cause they will be needed In a few

! rily because people feel that 1t -
hardly worth while to put out the
lights when they will be needed again
in an hour or so. Food which might
ready be prepared for another meal
is thrown away. Possibly a fourth Of
the cost of unkeep of every American
home is unnecessary cost. which could
be avoided by frugality and the en-
ployment of common sense.
The elimination OF waste has not
become a general object in house

The United States Is perhaps the
only country in the world in which
money, in itself, carries no public hon
or with 1t, and In which even the most
lavish heaving OF coins to the rabble
goes unrewarded. An English Carne-
gle would have had seat in the house
Of lords twenty years ago; a French
Rockefeller would have sported the
grand Gordon of the Legion OF Honor
before he ever sportod a toupee; q
German Morgan could never have es-
capped the Red Eagle and privy coun-
Gil. But In the United States a great
fortune Is the most effective OF all bars
to public dignity and preferment. and
even to private respect Gu. Ryans

Movement Under Way 70 Place Neg
Iected Parent on Pedestal and
Strew Roses at His Feet

Al last poor old father is TO have bis
day. For these many moons we have
been singing the praises OF mother
and deservedly-and telling OF what
dreary world It would be without her,
and all the while father has been
standing around as unnoticed and as
neglected as the bridegroom at the
wedding. He has been looked upon, or
rather tolerated, as a necessary evil.
Indeed, he has been spoken OF, In some
quarters at least, In terms OF reproach
and derision. We all remember the
beautiful ballad which blatantly called
attention to the fact that everybody
toiled but poor old dad. The refrain
of that song was taken up everywhere,
and the enthusiasm with which 1t was
sung by all sorts and conditions OF
people would lead one to suspect that
the author had made remarkable dis
covery, which he was only too glad to
share with the world.
Now all this is to be changed and
dad is to be placed on a pedestal and
flowers laid at his unworthy feet and
verses recited in his honor. Tho red
rose has been selected as an appropri-
ate emblem for father. and on one day
In the year everybody-or nearly ev-
srybody-is to wear that flower In or
der to let the world know that, in
spite OF all his faults, they dearly love
the old man. This Just and proper
recognition has been a long while In
coming. but now that 1t Is at hand
there seems to be disposition to do
II with a whole-heartedness that will
atone for past neglect. The only one
who will not quite understand It will
be dear old dad himself. He will do as
he is told, of course. but we venture to
say that the movement Is going to
make father scratch his head In Won

COLONEL sRENeLE's MEETINGS.
Salvation Army Evangelist Addresses
Two Meetings Friday.


good sized crowd greeted Colonel
Brengle at the Iowa Soldiers Home
Friday afternoon at $3.50. The colonel
spoke of his father as a soldier and Of
ticer, in kthe union army. losing his life
in the Siege of Vicksburg.
There is so much said today about
brotherhood of man. We can not have
brotherhood without fatherhood. Your
father and my father were not the same
man, but the father of your spirit and
the father of my spirit are one, and
Christ is our brother. God and man
work together. Man can not raise po-
tatoes without Gods cooperation. God
could make the potatoes grow without
mans labors, but it is not his plan. He
has planned to save the world thru
human fundamentally. He has raised
man above all his creation and has
given him a responsibility. He is Gods
partner in heavens business"
Another large audience was in at
tendance at the army nall Friday eve
ming, when Colonel Brengle spoke of
the growth OF spiritual life and love.
"Twenty-four years ago my first
child was born: a fine little fellow
about eighteen ur twenty inches long.
and l loved him. But if he We're only
twenty inches long today I would feel
very badly. Some christians are no
longer today than they were when they
We're born. What a shame. God does
not blame YOU for all the blunders You
make. God looks at the heart. My
little boy, wanting to help me. goes out
in the garden and pulls weeds and pulls
up onions. thinking them TO be weeds.
When l come home he joyfully shows
me what he has done for me because
he loves me. If I am a loving father
will rejoice because Of his love for
me and will not punish him for his
mistake. 1 will kindly show him his
mistake"
