motto is Truth and Fair Dealins>in in What You Represent Your Business to Be and Your Goods to Be- I have no doubt that in every association like this the prevailing sentiment is that only by the highest standards-I mean the highest moral standards-can you achieve the most permanent and sat- isfactory results.
 "I never went into a committee of any kind upon any important public matter or private matter, so far as that is concerned that I did not come out with an altered judgment, and knowing much more about the matter than when I went in; and not only knowing much more, but knowing that the judgment arrived at was better than l could have suggested when l went in. That is the universal ex- perience of candid men and if it were not so, there would be no object in congresses like this.
 And yet whenever we attempt legislation we find ourselves in this case: we are not in the presence of the many who counsel wisely, but we are in the presence of the few who can counsel too narrowly, and the thing that we have been trying to break away from is not that these gentlemen who constituted the narrow circles of ad- vice should be excluded from the ad- vice, but that they should be associated with hundreds of thousands of their fellow citizens
 Some have said that I was not ac- cessible to them and when I inquired into it, I found that they meant l did not personally invite them. They did not know how to come without being invited and they did not care to come | if they came upon the same terms with everybody else, knowing that every body else was welcome whom l have l the time to confer with.

and 10000 in colleges and univer-

Close to another 100000 were in
normal schools, preparing to be

PUTTING HENS TO NOVEL USE
German Would Train Them to An.
nounee Aeroplane's Approach,
Is Report.

The London Daily Chronicle re-
publishes from the Cologne Gazette
an odd article on the use of animals
to signify the approach of enemy
aeroplanes. The writer, who is evil
IDENTIFY quite serious, has noticed that
the sight of certain animals is much
keener than that of human beings,
and in a hasty view of the entire ami
NAL kingdom he comes to the con-
clusion hat birds have the most
alert vision and that hens and pig
cons are the birds most easily trained
and most reliable.
Hens protect their chickens against
soaring birds of prey which TIE
sharpest human sight cannot dis
cover; the pigeons will fly in any
weather and are extraordinarily
docile. The training of a hen OF a
pigeon to announce the approach of
an aeroplane is much easier than one
would think. They are to be placed
captured in the vicinity Of a descend
ing air machine, and as soon as the
airman lands he is TO rush at the un-
fortunate fowls and belabor them
with a rod.
This practice is to be repeated I'M
til the hen or the pigeon believes its
life to be endangered by anything on
a large scale descending from the
skies. All day long these terrified
fowls will strain their vision skyward
and the remotest speck in the vault
of heaven will futter the dovecotes
and h~encoops as nothing else would.

ODD TABLES ARE IN DEMAND
Ready Sale for Every Kind, Since
There Is Always Room for One
More In Any Room.

Everybody is picking up" odd
tables these days, and the more
quaint and unusual ones collection
the more distinguished. Very old
tables are Of course the most de-
sirable, but genuine old mahogany is
becoming hard to get at any price.
Good limitations of colonial and old
English designs are o~btainable, how
ever, though even these are by no
means cheap. There is always room
for one more table in any room, and
small stands Of mahogany, fitted into
corners too small for larger pieces of
furniture, give a homelike air to a
room and make convenient places for
photographs, tall vases, books and
small bits Of bric-a-brac. Only one
or at most two articles should be
placed on one of these little tables
or the room will look overcrowded.
A silver photograph frame and a vase
makes a charming combination. Two
books and a framed print or a small
bronze go well together. The nested
tables, three in a group, all slender
legged and dainty, are favorites for
drawing-room use. Gate-legged
tables and console tables are also
much sought after.
