most important thing of ALL
What was that?" asked his mother.
Why. he didn't give the number of his
house. answered Paul. solemnly. Then,
seeing the mystif1ed look on his parent s
face. he added.
Didn't you tell me we were going to

address,
This was probably a very natural mis-
take for my little son, or of any child
to make laughs Mrs. Caraway in re-
counting the story. 1.-THE fact remains
however. that the congressman's child
frequently lives in a state of mental
confusion. We have heard a great deal
about what the poor congressman's wife
endures when she comes from small
town. where everybody was either rela-
tive or an intimate friend, and enters
upon the loneliness of her first Washing
ton season. Also, narrowing tales are
told about the petty economies she must
practice in order to rear family on her
husbands salary.
If one accepted these stories literally,
one would finally come to believe that
any woman who stands for her husband s
making a race for Congress is performing
a patriotic service to the country. But
nothing is ever said about the congress-
mans child. Now, of the two. he has
my sympathy every time. When he
comes to Washington, he leaves the small
boys and girls with whom he has romped
since babyhood. IL he is a timid child,
the making of new friends Is no simple
matter. Then, too, he usually exchanges
the freedom of a rambling old house and
a ten-acre tract of ground for the restric-
tons of an apartment or house in a
row. II Congress is in session all sum-
mer- he is frequently kept in the city
during the hot months, getting home just
in time to enter school in the fall. and
returning to Washington to attend an
other school just as he has gotten into
the swing Of things at home.
Tn pointing out these disadvantages,
however, 1 do not mean that the exist
ence of the congressman's child Is with
out ray of sunshine On the other
hand, there are wonderful compensations.

House Of Representatives to Vote
Electrically.

Electrically.
AS a spoke in the wheels of filibuster-
ing minorities. the rules committee of
the House of Representatives Is con-
sidering the installation of an electric
device for the automatic recording of
the votes of its members. The appara-
tus would be a valuable time saver
Roll call in the House is now an arduous
task, consuming something like forty
five minutes every time taken. Besides
being an efficiency appliance. moreover,
the electric voting machine would do
away with all chance for inaccuracy in
the count.
The device would be employed to re-
cord attendance and votes of the mem
bers, and would be SO installed as to
prevent all unauthorized manipulation.
Each member Of the House would be as
signed a numbered seat at which a set
of locked push buttons would be pro-
vided for the registration og yea"
nay present or paired The re-
cording part of the apparatus would
operate on the principle of an adding
machine. This would be installed at the
Speakers desk. and would automatically
register on cards bearing the names of
all members the vote given.
In order that the members might see
how a vote is progressing it is proposed
to install indicating devices at several
points in the House. These would be
equipped with bulletin boards bearing
the names of the representatives and
votes would be indicated as soon as cast
