the girls eyes. 1t was the first really
interested look he had ever taken
into them, and what he saw there
made him realize that he had missed
much of the good in the world.
When he left the girl and her
father he asked il he might come in
often to see them, which was more or
less of a surprise to the girl, for she
had known him for five years, and he
had never made it {. point to drop into
her home.
She was even wondering. on the

Judson would come, when she heard
his voice in the hall. He was telling
her father that he had been worrying

KILL ALDRICH BILL.
House Doesn't Want State School
Sanitary Commissioner

The house today killed the Aldrich
bill providing for the creation of state
school sanitary commissioner. After
amending the measure proposed by
the Montgomery county representa-
tive the house voted to kill the bill
Aldrich's bill provided for better
school sanitation. Under provisions
of his bill state commissioner would
be appointed to determine health
conditions in districts where new
houses were proposed. The COM
missioner would also have supervi-
sion over the district schools of the
state and would be empowered to en-
force sanitary rules and regulations.
Following its desire to cut down the
size of the calendar by killing sundry
bills. the house struck out the enact
ing clause of the Holderman fish bill.
The Butler county mans pet scheme
prohibited the catching and keeping
of bass less than ten inches in length
and crappie less than nine inches
long 1t also provided penalties for
SEEMING fish and materially amended
the present fish and game laws for
the protection of small fish.

will be so great a scarcity of labor in
Europe when the war ends that wages
will be increased to a level never
reached before, and the heavy taxation
imposed on all industries to pay the
war debts will raise the costs of pro-
ducts to a decided degree Added to
all this is the fact that while hundreds
of merchants craft have been sunk by
commerce destroyers, the regular out
put of European shipyards has ceased.
There is one more thing of which
time alone can measure the import
ance. That is the depletion and dis
organization of the forces formerly en-
gagged in shipbuilding by being called
to military duty.

EMBARGO ON COTTON
England Beginning the Enforcement
of Her Blockade.

Washington, March S.-The British
embassy today announced that car
goes of cotton consigned to German or
Austrian ports would no longer be
permitted to proceed by the British
patrolling fleet. In a statement deal
ing with the cotton situation, the en-
basSy says that cargoeS of cotton con-
signed to neutral ports can go for
ward under certain restrictions. But
in effect, the embassy in it's statement
places cotton, heretofore not inter-
fered with, in the contraband class.
This is the first official declaration
supporting England's blockade and 1t
is expected it will form the basis for
the first concrete protest by the Unit

POTATOES IN PLACE OF BREAD.

If wheat remains at its present high
figure or continues to rise in price
and if there is a corresponding in
crease in the price of bread, scientists
in the United States department of
agriculture suggest that the ordinary
household will find it advantageous to
eat more potatoes and less bread
With potatoes at 60 cents a bushel,
ten cents worth-or ten pounds
will give the consumer a little more
actual nourishment than two one
pound loaves of bread at five cents
each. The protein and fat are present
in appreciably larger amounts in the
bread. but the potatoes will be found
to furnish more carbohydrates, and
more heat ur1its
Carbohydrates, (starch) contribute
greatly to the energy value of any diet
and since potatoes are rich in these,
families that wish to expend their
money to the best advantage are rec
commended to consider whether they
cannot make a more extended use of
them. They are easy to cook and
when prepared in different ways can
be made to lend variety to the winter
diet when green vegetables are hard
to obtain. Like other foods relatively
rich in carbohydrates, however, pota-
toes should be eaten with foods cor
respondingly rich in protein, such as
milk, meat, eggs, etc, and with foods
like butter, cream and meat fat to
supply the fat that the body needs.
Under normal conditions in Europe
and America the potato ranks next to
bread a carbohydrate food If
prices change sufficiently to make it
desirable from a financial point of
view there is no scientific reason why
potatoes should not be substituted to
a great extent for bread In addition
the potato, like many fruits and
vegetables, helps to neutralize an acid
condition in the body. This is an
other reason for its being eaten in
combination with meat, fish, and 9TH
er animal foods.

Rumors of peace in Europe are be-
ing heard in Washington these days,
but peace at this stage of the game
and without either side having won
anything like a decisive engagement
wouldn't be very satisfactory. Bet
ter that the war, with all of its hor-
ror and hardships, be fought to some
sort of a conclusion, rather than a
peace which would leave the belliger-
ents in about the same positions that
they were before it began. Such a
peace would mean another war sooner

TUBERCULOSIS AND woRKMEN.

A new campaign for closer cooper
alton with labor unions and other
groups of workingmen was announced
recently by The National Association
for the Study and Prevention of Tu-
bercu1osis
A committee has been appointed
with DR.. Theodore B. Sachs, president
of the Chicago Tuberculosis Institute,
as chairman, to formulate plans for
immediate and future action. Other
members of the committee are Samuel
Gompers president of the American
Federation of Labor, Washington;
George w. Perkins, secretary of the
International Cigar Makers Union,
Chicago; John Mitchell, of the New
York state compensation commission,
New York: Austin B. Garretson, pres
ident of the Brotherhood of Railway
Conductors, Cedar Rapids, Iowa; DR..
William Charles White, medical direc-
tor of the tuberculosis League of
Pittsburgh, and DR.. David r. Lyman,
superintendent of the Gaylord Farm
Sanatorium, Wallingford, Conn.
AS the first step in the campaign, a
special health bulletin has been pre-
pared for the labor papers, and will
be sent out monthly in cooperation
with members of the International
Labor Press association second
step in the plan is an investigation in
to the various special experiments of
cooperation between workinsmen and
the anti-tuberculosis movement that
have been carried on in this country.
Such work as that of the tuberculosis
relief associations in Hartford, New
Haven Meriden and other Connecticut
cities; the Trades Union Sections of
the Buffalo and Newark Anti-Tuber-
cuIosis associations; the work of the
factory committee of the Chicago Tu-
berculosis Institute; the tuberculosis
pavilion of the Albany Federation of
Labor; the overlook Plan" of Mas
sachusetts; and other similar efforts
are being studied and reported upon.
These reports will be made the basis
for recommendations and further
study in industrial communities
throughout the country.

All of the money that has been ex-
pended in Kansas during the past few
years good roads hasn't made
many of them such. A good road is
one that is in a disable condition for
any kind of traffic no matter what the
weather is or has been, except, pos
sibly, when it may be blockaded with
drifts of snow. Few of the Kansas
roads measure up to these proper
tons, as their present deplOrable con-
dition testifies. The only good road
is the permanent road. The first
cost Of their construction is more
than is that of the graded
and graveled road, which does
very we'll during a long stretch
of fine weather. but they are cheaper
in the long run. Their largest ad-
vantage. however, is their service
ableness in all kinds of weather.

Kansas highways need something
more in the way of legislation than
measures providing for their marking
the registration of the names and in
sigma adopted by highway associa-
tons and their more frequent drag
ging, such as were passed in one day
recently by the senate. Kansas will
never have anything that approaches
an adequate system of good roads un-
til a state engineering or highway de-
partment is created that is given the
requisite power to originate and de-
veiop plans for such system. and,
at the same time, until the state is
willing to devote considerable sums
of money to assist the counties in
meeting the cost of good roads con-
