OF CURRENCY ISSUE
President Anxious Measure
Shall Pass House During
the Special Session.

President Wilson and Congressional
leaders who will have charge of the cur
rency bill when 1t Is placed before Con-
gress. are Fastening consideration OF
me subject so that there shall be no
delay In taking up the measure when
the House is ready for 1t. Congressman
Carter Glass. who will be chairman of
the House Banking and Currency Com
mittee. has rewritten sections of the
tentative draft he had placed before the
President. The draft Of the bill is be-
neved now to be near final completion,
unless differences should develop in
further conferences.
The President has repeatedly ex-
pressed the hope that the bill might
reach the House early enough to in
s sure passage before the close Of the
hopes OF pushing the bill through the
Senate at this session. owing to the
slow progress Of the tariff bill. The
delay that Will arise from the action Of
the Senate committee in sending out q
long list Of questions to bankers will
add to the improbability Of Senate ac-
ton this session.
The Senate Finance Committee has
encountered delay in consideration Of
the tariff bill. owing to the necessity Of
taking action on items in the bill OBJ
1ected to by Germany and France. Tho
State Department has received protests
from representatives of these two ma
tions to the clause In the Underwood
bill which provides a per cent draw
back Cn imports brought to American
shores In ships of American register.
France and Germany object to this as a
violation Of existing treaties.
Conferences between Senator SIM
mons, chairman Of the Senate Finance
Committee. and John Bassett Moore.
Counselor Of the State Department, ere
expected to straighten out the interna-
tional legal questions, and to determine
whether amendment of the bill to meet
the wishes of the foreign governments
will be necessary.

HIS WILD OATS"

His face is long and his forelock is gray;
Good old boy" very likely you'd say
Yet he's sowing his wild oats,
Well is he known in these city streets:
You can count on the program he daily repeats
Time and place where he drinks and

D OF his lavish ways-it is traced in green
The very pavement stones between,
That he's sowing his wild oats.

Tut he never borrows and never lends
And he never gratis nor votes

Philip ran up tho stairs. Long

death in life accentuated the resem-
blance between mother and SON The
boy. too, was sharply outlined by
hunger, and in the fading light of a
March day the difference between the
dread tokens of approaching collapse
and the transient effects of a sCanty
regimen on a vigorous youth was not
readily distinguishable.

tenderly on the Clammy forehead

The voice was low and sweet-the
diction that of an educated woman.

strong and harsh, spoke with the ac-
cent of good breeding His manner
and words gained some distinction
from a slight touch of French ele-

There are many poultry associa-

pose Of holding a poultry show.
This is aIl right and very laudable
but we want to speak of poultry
clubs organized for a different pur
pose. A local or neighborhood club
for the exchange of ideas in re-
gard to the care and management
OF poultry. While this is a COM
paratiyely new idea, it is being
taken up in some parts of the coun-
try.
We trust some OF our readers
who are interested in poultry ande
who have a few neighbors who are
also interested will take the mat
ter in hand and organize such a
club, arrange TO meet, say, once a
month at one of the members
home, changing from month to
month. Have a short paper read
each time, followed by discussions
upon the same. Have q question

Feeding Of chicks, feeding for rap
id growth, feeding for market, mar

care of breeding stock to produce
good, vigorous progeny, care of
hens through moult. are some of
the topics that should be fully dis

club could be of great mutual ben
