he and his partner blew in from Chi
cago seeking work here. They found
none and were hungry, 80 he attempt
ed to make way with the razor which
was encased in big box mounted to
be placed on the counter. Mr.. Wolfe
detected the man, and the police were
notified.
Albo was arraigned and given
thirty days in Jail as the re-
ward for his labors. Lupin was ar
raigned on the charge of vagrancy
s and was put under bonds of s1OO
which he could not furnish, and went
4 to jail.
The superior court room looked
4 like the day after celebration.
There were several up before Judge
Mcnamara on various charges. VIII
MCGEE arrested and charged with be-
ing drunk and disorderly found ten
days In jail waiting for him.
Mickey Bresnahan received thirty
days on charge of being drunk. Mat
Hogan who was charged with being
drunk and disorderly also drew thirty

The local police department has re-
covered the valuable brindle bull dog
belonging to G. B. Rhoades which
was stolen several weeks ago. The
dog was found on farm near Spring
field, Ill. The police found that man
named McDole had stolen the dog and
sold 1t to Springfield man after TAX
ing the dog over there. The animal
was sent to farm forty-fye miles
from Springfield for safe keeping. The
police trailed the transaction and at
the end found the animal. Officer

the animal and brought it back to the
city today, restoring the dog to its

We have at present three courses In
cookery and a fourth ready FOR the
printer The first two courses cover
the elementary field OF cookery III
general, dealing with the five food
principles. The third course is given
to the more difficult problems OF cook
cry, including some few lessons upon
the balancing OF rations and some spe-
cial diets, while the fourth course is
devoted entirely TO diets for special
diseases.
In sewing. the first course is made
up Of elementary steps often termed
model work or hand sewing and is
supplemented by finished articles that
will illustrate the work, The second
course is a tape and rule system OF
drafting and making of under gar
ments A third course is under prepar-
alton now and will deal with the sub
jeot of alterations of patterns, care
and cleaning of clothing and kindred
subjects. Another good feature about
our Girls Club work is that through
Its adoption many schools that cannot
afford regular department can give
their girls the elementary training. Of
ten, too, the Girls Club created an in
terest in Home Economics which re-
suits in demand for such depart
ment in the high schools. During the
past three years five thousand girls in
the state have been members of these
clubs and have taken one or two les,
sons a week. Last year seventy-seven
clubs were organized This was less
than the year before because of the in
creased number of the established do
nestle science departments by high
schools

Walter Andrews, professional of the
Keokuk Country Club during the past
season. may be lost by the local club
in 1914 He has received several
very good offersto instruct next sum

dorsement as the second award Of the Dewar
Trophy was close at hand
You will recall that the first award of the
Dewar Trophy to the Cadillac pronounced
il. the most thoroughly standardized car In
the world. In the test, three Cadillac cars
were entirely dismantled, all of the parts
thoroughly mixed, and eighty-nine parts re-
moved from the heap and substitute parts
provided from stock. Three cars were then
built up again into perfect running condition
from the haphazard heap wrenches and
screw drivers being the only tools necessary.
Standardization was defined to mean in this
test-as it always has meant - that every
Cadillac part was exactly like every other,
part of its kind. 1t did not mean nearly
like 1t or almost like it. but absolutely like
it. down to the one-thousandth part of an
inch where that degree of accuracy was es-
sential. III other words, that there was COM
plete interchangeability, perfect alignment
of parts and units, perfect harmony in their
operating relations with each other, and a
total absence of ill-ftting joints and bear
ngs.
The Cadillac is the only which has ever
passed this tremendously significant test of
what constitutes standardization; and the
award to the Cadillac was the only one ev
