YOUR SHOES.
How to Take Care of Your Neither Garh
and Keep Neat,

II it were possible TO lay in Il sprjn"
and fall supply of, say, three or four
pairs Of shoes We would give our feet
Il good nance of always looking neat.
However. 1t IS possible ON IL more lin
tied number to accomplish the same
end If we are careful with those we
do buy.
In the first place, it is much more
advisable to pay a good price for
pair thar to buy two pairs of cheap
hoes Cheap shoes get out of shape so
quickly they are never an economy.
Cheap shoe leather is dear at any price.
L" preserve the shape of q shoe you
must have a pair of trees, and immc-
diately YOU take off your shoes put
them ON the trees. Never allow your
shoes to run down at the heel. AS soon
as they show the lras, signs of wear
send them to he fixed. If YOU wear
them until they are right down at the
leel II is not only bad for Your foot
and looks most SIovenly and mntidy.
no amount of subsequent repairing. will
put them right again.
IL yon happen t" get your shoes wet
don't PM them near the radiator t.
dry. This cracks the leather and makes
them hard. Put them on the trees and
let them stand somewhere warm and
dry. wait until they are quite dry
before having them cleaned.
You can keep patent leather shoes
from cracking by rubbing vaseline into
them before wearing them for the first
time.

Owing to delayed train The
Royal Welsh male Quartette, which
ws billed to sing here Wednesday as
an extra number OF the lyceum course
did not arrive until ten o'clock in the
evening. The advance sale Of seats
had been large and when the crowd
gathered at the Standard theatre II
was expected that the tram would be
in before nine, so an amateur con
cert was put on by students of the
high school TO ill in the waiting time.
SO we'll dDu they do their part that
the crowd was still all there wheu II th
conctIt started few minutes after
Ten O'Clock.
The concert Vas all that was e&'

WILL COST 100000
HALF OF THAT SUM WILL BE
ASKED FROM PRESENT

WASHLNGTON-Secretaly of tn,
Interior Lane Tuesday advised Rep
resentative Smith he had called OF
the reclamation service to submit {
report on the cost and adyisability ol
the government taking over the Kine
Hill Irrigation project. This report
when submitted, will be forwarded e
congress and if the r port ~ favor
able, as is believed, it Win have the
Endorsement OF Secretary Lane.
For some time the secretary has
refused TO make any recomm enda.
ton unless asked for it by Congress.
But Representative smith lnsis ued
he was required by law TO report ON
Id projects found feasible, and in
this Smith was backed up by promi.
nent Democrats in the house. Tues
day the secretary wrote Representa-
tive Smith he had been in error as to
policy and had decided TO submit
the King Hill report within few
days.
Just what the reclamation service
Win recommend is not yet known but
representative Smith believes it's
recommendation wlll be favorable. So
far as known the estimates show this
undertaking will cost about $4O0 900,
though probably not more than $780,
900 will be required to star. i.
representative S.A tn had a con-
ference with Rirector Dawes Tuesday
and was told the matter would re-
ceive prompt aut, ntion Smith also
urged that favorable reports be made
on the Black Canyon, Minidoka ex.

Davis said data regarding these is
not yet in shape to warrant report

WASHINGTON - The reclamation
commission Thursday unanimously
recommended TO Secretary Lane that
an appropriation of $500, 900 be asked
Of congress at this session for the
King Hill irrigation project, The COM
mission strongly urges that the fed
eral government take over and com
plete this project at total estimated
cost of about $4OO, 900, but as the job
Ls estimated require two years only
baf that amount is asked in the com
ing appropriation.
Secretary Lane Is expected to APP
prove the report Of the commission
and to transmit 1t to congress when
it convenes after the holidays.
This favorable action is the result
of persistent work by Representative
Addison r. Smith since his return to
Washington this winter. He Will go
before the appropriations committed
and urge the appropriation when the
secretary sends in his recommenda-
tons.

| chances were handled ably and at bat
he poled a sacrifice fly responsible
| for run.
The extent to which the White Sox
are in the dumps is well explained
by tOday's story from the war corre-
spOndents with the club. Ed Walsh
is coming back. Ed Walsh is about
due to take his turn in the box and
stand the opposition on it's head.
Now, Ed Walsh in his day was one
wonderful pitcher. He could do more
work and do it effectively than any
man who ever threw a baseball. But
Ed is hardly able to come back now.
He tried it last year, pitched one
good game against the Mackmen.
Because of his fine work in the
past, when he was known as the
Sox pitching staff, Big Ed should not
be Inundated at this stage. He
should be allowed to rest on the
laurels he gained in the past and not
have that memory ClOuded by mis- =
treatment from the bats of American
leagUers.
Even if Walsh should come back,
a far-fetched dream, how will that
polish the batting eyes of Ed Collins
and Jack FOuTnier? How will it aid
Joe Jackson to hit in the pinches?
FTisk us for the answer to that. The
pitching has been all that could be
desired and much better than was
expected.
With a half portion of assistance
from the attacking side of the club
there would be a different tale to tell
of the invasion of the east and the
final, series here against Cleveland.
It has been the same old heart
breaking battle for the SOx pitchers
the enemy to a low score
and seeing the victory fade because
their hackers failed to take advan-
tage of the openings offered.

ball of which he is capable, and Rube
Benton is about due to reach the win
ming peak.
In their showing yesterday the
Cubs should be down around the bot
tom and the Giants away up in the
van. McGraw's people we're lively
and aggressive, while the locals took
every insult handed them by fate
and scOTned to improve the chances
that came their way.
Some of this was undoubtedly due
to fact that Joe Tinker was canned
from the game in the fifth inning by
Umpire Rigler. From then to the
ultimate out the North Siders went
about their work as though their
only interest was the ninth inning
and a quick trip home to supper
p In the seventh, for instance,
Archer opened with a long fly which
Robertson dropped. The local
catcher trundled to second base on
the muff. Then MUlligan eXpertly
sacrificed Jim to third base. Right
there was the place to insert a pinch
hitter. if anywhere. But Vaughn
batted and rolled to Merkle, and
Shuttle repeated.
In the ninth inning after Archer
went out, Fischer pinched for Multi
gan and Mann took Vaughn's bat. |
Neither pincher was a success. MuI- |
igan was out there to gain expert
ence, and it would not have hurt to !
have allowed him his turn, with |
Fischer batting for the pitcher. Mui- |
ligan has showed himself every whit |
as good a batter as Mann this year. |
So hopeless did the Cubs consider
their task that no pitcher was
warming up during their half of the
ninth in case a run had been pushed |
home to tie the score. That attitude
of resignation is not a feature of
pennant-winning ball teams, or even
of teams which keep in the fight.
