THE SEWING BASKET.
Some Hints For Making the Needle
woman's Work More Convenient.


To prevent soft material from puck
ering when sewing it on the machine
put strips Of newspaper under it and
sew through both material and paper.
When an unusually large hole has to
be darned on house linen or woven
underwear, it is good plan to first
tack a piece of net over the hole and
then darn on the net. When finished
cut away the rough edges of the net
with a pair of small scissors.
Loose buttons. hooks and eyes, etc.
are apt to get about in the workbasket
Collect them and thread hooks on one
safety pin, eyes on another, buttons
on another. Close each safety pin, and
everything may be kept in place.
TO make tucks in blouses. etc, lay
the fronts together, stitch on machine
with needle unthreaded, then fold by
perforated line and stitch in usual
manner.
Choose shallow drawer in which
to keep the sewing materials. Fit into
it small cardboard boxes and fasten
each with a drawing pin through the
bottom. Then place in each box diff
ferent kinds of sewing material-but-
tons. hooks, eyes, darning needles, safe
ty pins, thimbes, etc.

THE MONEY REMAINS
HERE

~ HERE are certain politi-
W cal takers in this coun-
try who are seriously at
tempting to make the people
Of the United States believe
that in lending half a billion
dollars or more to England and
France, American bankers are
planning to drain this country
of the savings of its workers
and to create money scarcity
that would react to our disad-
vantage.
There has never been perpe-
trated a more absurd, a more
pluperfect piece of political
pOppycock than this. 1t is
based upon a presumption of
public ignorance, and it is an
attempt to array the American
people not so much against any
one Of the European belliger-
ents as against their own di-
rect commercial and financial
interests.
In the first place, what the
American bankers, in their
private capacity, are propos-
ing to do for England and
France is, not to lend them out
right $5OO,O00,O0O or any
other sum; but to arrange for
them a credit in this country
Of something like that amount
upon the basis of which they
may buy from US food, cloth
ing and other essential mater
ials. without forcing them to
send the actual gold to this
country for the purpose of
making payment.
Not one single dollar of that
half billion, or whatever may
be the amount agreed upon,
is to cross the Atlantic. Every
single dollar of it is to remain
right here, while the products
for which it will go in payment
will be the only thing the
French and English will get in
exchange for their 512 per
cent bonds, jointly guaranteed
by those two countries.
Thus, instead of sending
money out of this country, the
direct result of this credit ar
rangement will be to put half
a billion dollars more into ac-
tual circulation in America for
further accumulation and 1

whom people will be proud
and never ashamed.
There is not man in local
public life with a cleaner rec
ord, personally, politically or
in business, than John Mont
gomery. He is a man of good
ideals and he lives up to them
all the time. He is honest, OF
sound judgment and true to
his promises. He is an official
on whom people may rely for
sincerity and square dealing
every day in the week and that
is the sort of man needed for
mayor at this critical time.
In urging him as their candi-
date law enforcement leaders
know what they are doing and
they have chosen the proper
man. They have worked with
him during the time he has
been in the council; they know
where he stood when not a
candidate for office and they
know that if elected he will en-
force the law in good faith.
The East Oregonian is in
formed on law enforcement eff
forts here and this newspaper
places full faith in Mr.. Mont
gOmery. If chosen to office
he will be a straightforward
mayor, standing for clean con-
ditions and the progress of
Pendleton, first, last and all
the time. His work will be sin
cere and effective. There will
not be prosecution for some
bootleggers and protection for
others.
A further point in Mr.. Mont
gomery's favor is the fact he
is fully informed regarding the
city's financial affairs, due to
his experience in the council.
1t is essential that the next
mayor have knowledge Of this
subject because the city's bus
mess affairs will require care
ful attention. Revenue from
saloon licenses will be cut off
and this situation will have 70
be met. 1t will be essential
that all waste and unneces-
sary expense be eliminated yet
the gradual progress of the city
must not be hampered by an
ultra conservative policy.
At time like this when the
city needs clean and honorable
men in office Pendleton will
be fortunate in having a man
like John Montgomery. avail
able for mayor and this is
something that will become
more and more apparent as
time passes.
