 "The most obstinate spots of grease, tar or wheel grease, which yield to nothing else may be re- moved by applying a few drops of eucalyptus oil and rubbing slight ly. There is no danger of injuring the most delicate fabrics. The oil will all evaporate in a short time, leaving no trace. An application of talcum powder or French chalk will hasten the process"

substantiated the statement Of Mayor
Woodward that when Il voucher for p
900 feet of hose at $4,000, reached the
mayor it was held up by him. Bids
were advertised for, and a competing
company offered the hose at 80 cents a
foot-ten cents cheaper. When asked
whether they were the same value of
hose, he said he didn't know, except
they were two-ply hose.

next years books was in executive
session at the Capitol Tuesday.
Thirty odd publishing houses are
bidding for the new contracts.
There are two opinions in the com
mission-one holding that the pres
ent contracts should be temporarily
renewed pending the present legisia-
tive investigation into the entire book
situation. This side claims that to
renew would avoid many possible
changes of books within the next few
months. This side is headed by the
Governor.
The other side holds that all pres
ent contracts should be abrogated
without bubble and a new deal had
all around.
The impression is that the situation
as 1t at present exists will not be
materially disturbed at this time.
